Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for August 17, 2021

P2: How did Heather get on the accounting team?

Panel 3, wherein we learn that the little criminal is related to Mysta.

Cart busted!

“US or email me your concerns and my attorney will get back to you. Good Day.” BTW, don’t country clubs still vet people BEFORE they accept them as members? Or do they just need the $$$ so badly they’ll take drug lords and anyone else who has enough Long John Green?

P1 The artwork is so bad I can’t tell if it is Mimi or Heather…I say Mimi cuz it is unlikely they would have a non-member (Heather) involved. Are the Thorp’s on the Board at MCC??? Usually only someone in Club Governance would handle a matter such as this…but then again that GilPa is a jack of all trades

Nice color consistency today with everyone wearing a red shirt, has anyone checked what the over-under for the number of them changing between today and tomorrow?

P3 Cart gives EES a new meaning, Exploding Ear Syndrome

So, is the felony before the name change (and reason for), or are they looking at the amount he ripped off with his hustles and suggesting he could be charged as a felon?

Ok I confess ,I’ll leave but before I go I want to show you some video of Gil Thorp sandbaging and you might in all reality want to audit his time sheets, lesson receipts , unpaid tab at the grill and ask the caddies how much they have kicked back to him for good tippers !

P1: Moe Lives

Just out of college, jobless and clueless, cub reporter Brenda, er, Heather breaks the big story, hobnobs with the country club set and sends Cartman up the river. Only in Milford.

P2- GilPa and his Mary Worth Meddlers gleefully look on as Cartman’s tighty whiteys commence to contract.

“We’d like Rubin and Whigham to account for making you look almost indistinguishable from the title character.”

P 4: “…we found this butter knife in your golf bag…”

Today, it’s the red polo shirt gang…tomorrow, orange

P 4: “…Moose…Rocco….help him with his memory….”

P4: Out comes the ball peen hammer. And the power saw.

From today’s Comics Curmudgeon:

“Oh no! Carter has been ambushed and dragged before a secret meeting of the Council of the Red Polo Shirts! He will be shamed as the Council ritually strips him of his own red polo shirt, right before he’s executed for golfcrime.”

P1, I worked at a country club in high school. The last thing they’ll ever tell you is that they overbilled you. But miss your monthly minimum and they’re all over you.

P2, I guess he doesn’t recognize State Champion Coach Gil and his apprentice, Heather.

P3, You no account POS!

This locks up Heather’s newspaper job for sure.

I wonder where they were in P1?? HS locker room for loofah time??

Jeez, I guess you get an ass kick’n for fudging your handicap. I’m a little surprised that it’s a felony, though.

P2: It’s good to see Mr. Lodge getting a break from the misery that Archie Andrews causes in his life.

P1 – Was it really necessary for the Prez to give him a fake reason to step into the courtroom? He really didn’t have to set up a sting, just say, “Hey Cart-man, got a minute?”

P2 – Of course, Heather gets to lead the proceedings, since she’s the one who cracked this case wide open. Just to be official, the Prez gave her a club polo to wear.

P3 – Little known fact, a felony is usually handled by a US District Attorney, but optionally, they also can be addressed by golf country clubs.

And speaking of addressing, Mopped Up Thorp addresses this strip in a different way.

It appears that they have him by his golf balls.

CC members get really upset when someone cheats better than they do.

If p2 is at Milford CC, where is p1?

Yes, a felony. Gil has escaped blame by framing Carter for kidnapping the missing children.

From today’s Comics Curmudgeon:

Oh no! Carter has been ambushed and dragged before a secret meeting of the Council of the Red Polo Shirts! He will be shamed as the Council ritually strips him of his own red polo shirt, right before he’s executed for golfcrime.

panel #1 looks like the mens locker room, altho everyone is wearing a red shirt-wonder if the colorist ran out of every color but red. OR, that person is color blind

Yipes Stripes!

I wonder if the newspaper “I wish she had more experience” editor will hire her now.

P 2.5 (Cart’s voice): “…when did they let women get involved with club management?..”

You’d like? I’d like a trip to Hawaii.

In Milford, you can cheat on your wife, cheat on your taxes, but if you cheat at GOLF…. you are in deep doo-doo.
