Of course the really funny ending, (which won’t happen) is if Connie Gale turns out to be the real niece and doesn’t know it.
Poor Daddy Warbucks then!
He walks alone again into the night
At Drucker and 4th he turns to the right
A relentless gum shoe, who knows his biz
But now he’s Ruthless, he wonders where she is
This Connie Gale dame is a cinch to be found
He’ll be on her trail just like a hound
The evil sisters all grim of purpose and mien
Realize just what fools that they really have been
Connie may sing a tune that is sugary and sweet
But if they find her, like a drum they will beat
So to Daddy she will run to seek her succor
Because the factor of fear really makes her pucker
It would be better that she had stayed on the ship
Then to everyone she could have given the slip.

You have no idea how to track down a cabaret singer? Must be before Google was invented.

Yipes! Could that be Ace Mifflin, Private Eye from Jazz Age Comics?
Be great if it was.

Let’s see, Connie Gale. Stage name “Connie Gale.”
Do theatrical folks have agents? Do those agents make the names and whereabouts of their principles known?
Go to some agent, any agent’s office and say you want to book “Connie Gale” for a shindig.
What do they need an investigator for?

Then what would they do with all the whale food?

How hard could it be to find her?
Just read the funny papers from a few days back.
It looks as though the sisters are going to have Connie “rubbed out” to protect their fortune.

“I’ll manage it, conselor. That’s us shamuses do-”
If only a certain “shamus” in another comic strip can “manage” a case!

That’s “we” shamuses, actually.

What happened to Sidney? He asked about me the other day, and then he disappeared. Maybe he knew too much about those sisters!
