strip had Lewis and Fry really shown RJ doing that (especially on Sunday of all days). Smart thinking, you two.

Of course there’s a nice dual meaning to what RJ says in the final frame. Second mouse gets the cheese, and all that. Sign language not included.

I was expecting an actual bird to come swooping down on the worm.Real nice unexpected alternative we got instead.

I thought he was pushing the flowers at the worm. Should try to switch on my brain before getting up.

I get up the minute the sun comes in my bedroom window. My window faces the west.

With that gesture, RJ was acting as fresh as a daisy.

Was it some kind of hummingbird? Must be a small bird to be able to hide behind a flower like that…

As I’ve always said …
The early bird can have the stupid worm, because mornings and worms stink.
Doesn’t fit exactly here, but close.
