Surprises


Guuurrrrrllll.... I thought you were fired from that job? Why the present tense verb, girlfriend?

In the first panel, do you think Carol is horrified at the prospect of horses being bolted to a merry-go-round ("Is that what it's like in the big city?!") or super bored and yawning because this will just. not. end?

Carol is reacting to the memory of the freak merry-go-round accident which claimed the lives of her father, her best friend.... and Jack!

Aargh! I want the snarky, nasty Carol Collins back! Why do they taunt us with such potential, only to turn it into banality?!?

Oh, and also--why is Tommie calling Lu Ann "Carol"?

I don't understand any of this!!

Carol's making that face because Tommie has finally faced her while talking. Her breath smells worse than her turtleneck.

I cannot get over the vision of actual horses being bolted to a merry-go-round. It's not terribly unlike those pony rides at fairs, just without the gruesome poles shoved through their backs.
