For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for May 14, 2020

Only way he’s gonna get Fiona out of his house!

hang in there, John

Wait a minute! Jean Baker is just seeing John for the first time that day (judging by her statement) and now she thinks he is going out for lunch? What time does John get to work?

Fiona’s the lynchpin in this, John. You know what to do regarding her. ;D

About time, John. Something you should’ve done the minute Fiona introduced Beaumont the first day. That alone said plenty about your cousin.

Get a backbone John and cut off the cavity at its root!

It’s a shame that the only way to get your lazy cousin out of the house is by buying her an apartment. If you don’t have the voice to kick her out then don’t invite her in the first place. Hire a nanny.

Warning: This leads to a short side-plot that is somewhat painful to watch!

Good idea. Expedite the problem out of existence.

What’s up with the look in the fourth panel? Did the first Canadian land on the Moon?

Hopefully, it’ll be in Florida so she can sweat and complain to the alligators.

And now the rumors start!

Exactly what I would want my dentist to do.

I did this, furnished and nicely stocked, close to work. I would go there on lunch hour and after work for a shower and a nap or quick meal, then go home refreshed and ready to deal with chaos. If I had to work Saturday I would go early make breakfast, watch the news, then go to work. Or lie about working Saturday and spend the day puttering about or relaxing. Far removed from the insanity of home life. I kept my sanity and temper this way, I swear by it, do it if you can afford it!

5 days to go before we get an explanation of sorts as to why the Pattersons are incapable of just throwing Fiona out on the street. 6 days to go and she’s GONE.

Jean thinks John is leaving his family

Will he keep paying Fiona’s rent? or what?

Is the apartment for Fiona or him?

Selfish bastard.

If he’s getting Fiona the apartment, hopefully it will be far away. I couldn’t do what he is doing. The only thing I’d give someone like Fiona is a boot-print on her butt from where I kicked her out.

He needs to take the family and move into a temp apartment. when Fiona has no one to wait on her and feed her and her cat, she will move on, or even better yet when Fiona is out one day. quickly move out and change the locks and set her belongings on the front porch.
