    A couple of aliens are going to take him in? About time something interesting happened.

    Poor, emaciated Aaron looks stronger than the kid guarding him.

    Ah, the big mystery of p2. Here’s hoping it’s Marty Moon and his landlady.

    Panel 2: Tall guy, short person, not Gil, I hope as we know how kids disappear from THAT household. Aaron would be “milk carton bound” in no time.

    In all reality , which begets a phone conversation Hello , Coach, Chief Topper Copper here, the lab test on the hypothetical opioid you gave me came back negative in fact they’re commonly known as Pez ! You’re being played ! Do me a favor tell Big Kenny Brown to mind his own business , we would be starting baseball if it wasn’t for this nonsense .

    Any chance “with us” means Gil and Kaz? Or perhaps it implies the Begets family!

    A Quad appears about to dunk in P1 but that would require moving closer to the basket and jumping, neither of which he looks ready to do.

    P2, Don’t do it A Quad. Trust me on this.

    Gil has been under pressure to come up with more kids for the sweatshop and look who just offered himself up. “Sure,” says Gil, “bring your friends.” Gil is already counting that bonus money.

    Our high school coach adopted our point guard and his sister when their parents moved out of the area. The sister wasn’t an athlete but the guard helped us win a State Championship. I guess it was a double or nothing deal.

    Milford’s double revenge is infesting Central’s gym with ants. Nicely done guys!

    Aaron is the stray dog, fed by GilPa, and now wants room and board like Pedro. P3- Young Aagard looks pensive that Gil is pointing to exit, stage left.

    AQuad combed his hair, and has a suitcase by his chair. Gil is going to get that son he (uh) never had (anymore?). Quad has heard about the pool action, and he’s looking forward to summer. Kaz was disqualified because they found WAY too many shower supplies when they inspected his house. And he wanted the Mom to move in on weekends

    Agree with thebrownstarfish, don’t do it! No more raves. Too busy cutting the lawn, trimming hedges, and taking care of Mimi by the pool.

    P-1: With his but cheeks in full view, a shortless AQ has no trouble with Central’s reluctant defense.

    P-2: It had to happen, Mimi tells Pedro there’s a problem and it starts with Aaaa.

    P-3: Gil informs AQ of the new Pool Boy position at his house. It’s a great way to supplement your income and Mimi will be there to keep you company.

    Hey, wait a minute! R&W are getting subtlety racey. We all know what begets means from Sunday School or Religion class. So Gil’s talking dirty in P-3.

    A one-sided win huh, just wondering if I ever heard of a two-sided win, and what that would mean. Two against one? And speaking of one, one of the top ten revised Gil Thorp blog sites is available on Mopped Up Thorp, right here: https://moppedupthorp.wordpress.com/.

    At least I assume it’s in the top ten, I actually haven’t done any research. But who else would be weird enough to do this?

    Yeah, P2 is a fakeout, leading us to believe the Thorps are going to take him in. My money is on BKB talking to the Cow Judge in P2, since he feels so guilty about trying to make something happen and it backfired. (Although it really didn’t.)

    ‘Begets’??? so the conversation would be along the lines of "yea, ‘tis true. The young lad needeth a place to reside. Perhaps he could obtain lodging here at our abode’. Milford is evidently even further in the past than we realized it was.

    Some text was left out of the conversation, so please allow me to fill in the blanks:p2: AQ: State Championship Coach, can I move in with you? I’m really enjoying these extra meals and Mom is really throwing down on the OXY. Coach: With US??? AQ: Yes State Champion Coach, please, I’ll do anything!

    p3: Gil says nothing, but points to where the showers are.

    A cost- benefit analysis hasn’t been done by Gil. Considering basketball season is coming to an end and the playdowns appear to be out of reach, is it really worthwhile to house A-Quad for the rest of the year?
