Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 19, 2016

.Good morning guys!.Is this the real Dick Tracy?

It’s not looking good for Screwball. The minute his back was turned, something happened. At least the getaway car is still there.

At least Putty Puss got paid for his acting job. I was wondering where he got the money for that food he was eating.

Seems Putty Puss will live another day.Looks like someone has an idea on how to put the talent to good use.

Dick is there, oops.

When Putty Puss did his Dick Tracy job, he seemed so far gone that I wasn’t sure that he even realized what was happening, or would remember it afterwards. He seems a lot better now. Of course, there is the matter of seemingly not realizing that the guy he’s speaking to is there to kill him.

Will Dick get a ‘hat trick’? Arrest 3 criminals in one go?

OOPS…..methinks someone is about to get a bad surprise.

That’s a neat trick Putty Puss!

I think we all recognize that this must be the real Dick Tracy. He probably slipped in the back way (if there is one; or through a window). Sam can detain Putty Puss while Tracy confronts Screwball.As for who can make the arrest, I suppose Sam could. But if the Asp is present, such niceties really don’t matter. I’d still like to see the Asp and Pokerface is a creepiness face-off (not a reference to Putty Puss)….

Surprise!

Screwball waited too late to carry out his mission, it appears. I wonder if Pokerface is going to catch on to Tracy being there and, if he does, how long it’ll take him to leave the scene?

I’m surprised that PP can change faces so quickly (and without a mirror).

Screwball is obviously not too bright. But, Pokerface is not much smarter. Nothing suspicious about a guy sitting in a car wearing a mask.

This reminds me of the Harpo Marx “Mirror” routine.

I think either Tracy switched places with Puttypuss, or Putypuss is going to say “from the same place I get this pistol, bang, bang!”

On second thought, since Dick is suspended, as many have pointed out, perhaps this IS Putty Puss. He could be a quick change artist, along with his other talent.I don’t see how Dick & Sam could arrive without being detected by Pokerface. (Unless they came in the back way?)

This wouldn’t be the first time that someone staying in a long-term care facility would be over-drugged causing some side-effects. That may be it, or like others have said, it was all stress related with Putty Puss being oblivious to the fact that he was almost murdered.

And we’ll have to see tomorrow if that is indeed Dick or just Putty Puss who happens to be an amazing quick-change artist.

Dick is always on the Ball..

Putty Puss must still have the yellow hat and rain coat he wore in the infamous film.

I was saying that, but I don’t think he could have changed quite that fast. I’m thinking that the real Tracy sneaked in the back way.
