Hey, if she’s willing to pretend to be in a coma while they insert the feeding tube you have to admit she’s committed to her art… Or just needs to be committed.
This was one of the rare instances in which Garry Trudeau departed from his normal practice of having his big Sunday strip not be an episode in the ongoing weekly story arc. At least he made an exception in 1995, but not during re-run time in 2021.

Good thing Mike didn’t bring Alex with him. Hopefully he didn’t even tell her how ill her mother supposedly was.

tsk…tsk. Sort of a sneaky selective bit of comic editing to illicit a visceral audience response here, isn’t it? I’m feeling a bit Fox News-ed here.
