Transcript:
JJ: Boy, what a scary movie! Mike: Yeah, it's pretty scary, all right... Unfortunately, I don't think we've got time to stay until the end... JJ: What? Are you nuts? Leave before we find out who killed her? Mike: I already know. It was the psychiatrist. JJ: Michael! Mike: I'm sorry, J.J. It' s just we've only got an hour to get drunk before the concert.

The way Michael’s going, it won’t take that long. It doesn’t take an hour to chug a 26.

She needs to learn to compromise. She can’t always be the party of No.

Maybe I am just too darn old, but, WHY does he feel the need to get drunk before a concert?

A couple days ago I was yelling for him to take off, but now I’m convinced J.J. was the one wronged in this relationship. Run as fast as you can girl.

“Dressed to Kill”; who didn’t see that ending coming?(BTW, that was a body double for Angie Dickinson at the beginnining.)

Ok the other strips in this arc were funny, but why in the world would he include a movie he knew was to long to see the end of.

I can see that these ‘classic’ strips were from the days before multi-tasking. Otherwise, OCD Mike would realize that he can watch a movie (or listen to a concert) and get drunk at the same time. Assuming, of course, that he has to be drunk to listen to music…

And this is a person I would run from….very fast. Why doesn’t she at this point? Hasn’t she learned enough?

If I were J.J., this would be my first AND last date with Michael Doonesbury!!!

It looks like Mike made her who she is, and deserved the consequences.

I wonder if this movie was Brian DePalma’s Dressed to Kill. And I wonder if I’ve just spoiled it for everyone who hasn’t seen it.
