    What the hell is going on with this storyline?

    Is he kicked off the team yet? What is this $40 profit thing? Where in the hell are the Thorp children? Will Gil go home tonight in a workout enraged fit and have his way with Mimi?

    Gil is working out his frustration, on the nautilus. When he should be working on Mimi. Gil has a secondary degree in accounting.

    the tattoo on Kaz’s left arm—does it spell “stupid”? goes along with the “yup” comment. Kids–let this be a lesson-don’t use steroids as everyone seems to be in this strip.

    The $40 “profit” is no mystery. Clearly, Cody stole the $80, thinking it was a band kid’s money. Apparently, he wasn’t making enough money from dealing drugs and pimping out Cassie (which I expect will be divulged in tomorrow’s strip). Clearly, Cody only hatched his plan to replace the stolen money because the Ghost was using the theft as a means to pursue his vendetta against a certain band member which led to a rift in the football team. Clearly, Cody only cared about healing the rift in the football team because he was gambling on the team’s games and the rift was making it difficult to predict how they would play. Clearly, after pitching in $40 from the original $80 that he stole, Cody was left with a “profit” of $40.

    I guess the storyline is that foster kids, no matter how well they seem to be doing academically and/or athletically, can’t be trusted. As a result of the fear of being abandoned once they turn 18, they are all drug-dealing, pimping, gambling thieves.

    I pray that we don’t find out that Cody had something to do with the disappearance of Gil’s kids. If so, I would advocate locking up all foster kids forever. If it saves just one family from going through the horror that Gil and Mimi have had to go through, a horror so great that Gil and Mimi can’t bring themselves to talk about or even acknowledge their loss, it would be worth it.

    P2 - Gil’s no weight training coach, that’s for sure. Very poor form on the biceps machine. His back should be straight, his head up not down. The correct posture provides the best isolation of the biceps muscles. His poor posture and form is bringing in his traps and delts, which will prevent full exercise of the bi’s.
