    Ironic, if they cuff Blackjack after such heroic efforts.

    Fireman Jim shut his eyes all the way

    While shooting water all through the long day

    Unfortunately for him all he had was bad luck

    So his hose was directed towards his own fire truck

    Oh well he figured, at least I’ll save time

    Removing all the dirt, the grease and the grime

    Meanwhile Da Man with the heart of pure gold

    Wasn’t about to wait for the word to be told

    As the duo emerged with their bundles so large

    It was simple to see which one was in charge

    How this story will end might be open for debate

    But I’m certain that Blackjack will accept what’s his fate

    The path towards what’s good can be littered with much pain

    But the end of this road will be for everyone’s gain.

    Three cheers for Blackjack!

    Uh-oh, the wind has caught Tracy’s hat! Hey, Bill & Gweed, wile you’re in there, grab it would you? We don’t want to miss having it in the Tracy hat museum!

    Once Blackjack passes his load to Sam, he will disappear in the thick smoke.

    Of coarse they need help. Hickman needs help getting the cuffs on him if he was the one who started the fire, and Tracy needs help getting his hat back.

    Can anyone help me ID the item in the lower-right corner of panel 2? I’m guessing it’s part of a firefighting apparatus, but I don’t know what it would be. Thanks in advance.

    I wonder if Blackjack is going to take off after he knows everybody is safe.

    He seems to have more of a conscience than a whole lot of non-crooks.

    At this point in time

    I have not a rhyme

    To expound or explain

    This ache in my brain

    But what I can say

    Tracy’s hat blown away

    Will Blackjack retrieve

    Or a trick up his sleeve

    Advantage be taken

    His coughing been fakin’

    Escape he will make

    Yellow hat he will take

    To add to collection

    And feed the obsession

    My last rhyme for the week

    I am humbled and meek

    From all of your praise

    For the last several days

    now I need a nap! lol

    I’m guessing the combination of Blackjack and Sparkle hitting it off, and him saving people at the bank, is leading up to him turning officially “good” and joining Tracy in some capacity fighting crime instead……if the Mole can turn good guy after those murders, Blackjack is a piece of cake!

    Looks like old man Tracy is not in as good shape as Blackjack. He seems barely able to make it out carrying a woman, while Blackjack is far ahead and less wobbly-looking while carrying a man! At least the Fire Department is finally on the scene; now, (cough cough), get those folks some oxygen! (And I do hope Tracy can retrieve his scorched hat for the Famous Fedora Collection of battered hats!)
