Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 08, 2013

A golden opportunity missed. The police chief’s coffee mug should have a big GIL on it.

I see Gil has changed into a collared shirt and cuffed shorts to go with his high white socks and knock-off adidas. No wonder Hairy is checking him out in P1.

another “case closed” for the MPD!

MPD check. Piping hot coffee, check. Doughnuts???

Like Tom Hagen in The Godfather, Gil has reporters on the payroll that might like a story like this…old wrestling heel cleans up a Subwich floor with two punks.

Scheming Gil. He does less thinking with his sports teams.

Yeah, “I” can help with the shop cleanup. In other words, STEVE can clean up the sub shop.

So the cops were not going to press charges. Why are they at the police station and why was Gil even called?

When Gil strokes his chin like that you know something exciting is about to happen.

MPD is on the case, but what about that lingering cold case the missing Thorp kids?

Hmmm…if Gil is secretly the heir to a sub shop fortune it would explain how he could afford to repair the joint on a coach’s salary…and why he never bothers to show up for games or practice.

Gil “The Brain” Thorp has an idea that will finally end Hulkamania.

The chief is practicing his ventriloquism. He’s talking and drinking at the same time.

He would have been brought in for questioning regardless. The counter girl’s statement that it was pretty much self-defense would mean he would be released quickly.
