P1: “Hey, why does the door lock behind us? There’s no handle to get out!”
P2: Mostly awestruck Freshmen. “Holy F*ck! What the heck is this? The legends are true! We’re doomed!”
After they finish this line, the current Grade 9 class is waiting for them to invite them to an extra special event to be held by them. The entire class is celebrating their 21st birthdays this year.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in Milford, all of the expectant mothers are gathering their things to go to Milford General Hospital and Veterinary Clinic to deliver their babies on Labour Day. They learned this in their Milford High S*x Ed classes.
The school band, cheerleaders, and cafeteria staff gather in the gym to practice their welcome for the returning Mimi. They’re playing Mimi’s theme. The head cook and her rolling pin are taking a break from training new kitchen staff, the few survivors of the long lasting Milford Bubonic Plague epidemic. Chef has made sure to abide by Milford Health and Safety Regulations and made sure that the new staff has all of their oozing sores safely covered and plans to take an inventory of all bandages worn both before and after they finish cooking.
P1, WTF, it’s still August and we’re back in school already? This must be a new record. I know CJ, wherever he may be, can’t be pleased that there was only a couple of days spent at Milford CC.
P2, Getting their first look at the legendary Milford showers.
In unrelated news, there was a two-alarm fire at the diner. Mom was upset they wouldn’t give her more butter for her pancakes. Mo helped put the fire out with her face.
I give her a week before she’s expelled and back at Valley Modified. The two girls in P3 will have to find someone else that they can be Phoebe and Alexa to.
Mostly awestruck freshman because MHS is just so awesome except kid in P2 is thinkin’ about smacking the butt on the girl in front of him “…hmm…wonder if high school girls are cool with this kind of attention…well,….let’s find out…”
This is totally out of character for this strip. It is starting the school year right on time! Usually it would be late September before school would start. But the last strip we were in the middle of summer. What happened to the rest of the break?
And now that we’re back in school, I guess that’s the end of Maureen. She had a good run! But what about Tru(e)? Is he just forgotten now?
And speaking of forgotten, you might have thought that I forgot to do today’s Mopped Up Thorp. Nope! It’s just a bit late.

Who wouldn’t be awestruck by the storage room full of “Gil Thorp State Champion” merchandise?
Who are we? Junior class assistant fire marshals. You and your nutty mother better watch your step.

No masks or social distancing much less distance learning in Milford…

So, we have another clue to Milford’s time/location. There’s no Jr. High. The kids go right from 8th grade into HS 9th grade as Freshmen.
