    Good morning™, all!

    Wow, Rabbit and Ferret actually have real names! The poison injection fact should help them to connect these two to Yeti.

    Hmmm…wonder if the neighboring city police have their own version of Dick Tracy? Det. Nick Macy? Maybe they could team-up!

    Sometimes, like this, I wish they would not spend a week on talking heads and give us a better last week of the story instead of a rush finish…….

    Good morning™, identified perps !

    I don’t have any problem with the expositions where others are calling it too long ie talking heads. I just hope the finish isn’t rushed.

    The cartoon-y faces may work in action sequences.

    But here, in the procedural, I think I’d prefer more realistic looking mug shots.

    These two kind of look like Mr. and Mrs. Howdy Doody.

    Speaking of Howdy Doody…Didn’t he have “look alike” n the "Coney/Stooge Villiers money/Dethany arc ?

    Sam should already know 100% of this. He was on that case, too.

    I do like the consistency of Tracy’s uncanny ability to remember faces.

    Yes. I know. I see they didn’t edit out the added ‘he’ that I spotted and mentioned. This story is discouraging.

    Hang down your head, Tom Dooley

    Hang down your head and cry.

    Hang down your head, Tom Dooley

    By poison you did die.

    Young Ferret she’s in trouble

    Ape bears much of the blame.

    Young Ferret on the double

    Should get out of the game.

    “He was a small timer that got in over his head.” Does that explain the deer-in-the-headlights look on the both of them?

    1-DT: OK, let’s recover the ground we just covered because I’m not sure you understand.

    SAM: Could you hurry it up. Groan I gotta pee so bad my wee knee had to tie itself in a knot. My kidneys have gone on strike and I’m tasting yesterday’s beer…

    2-DT: OK. OK. Check it. Here’s what that girl you want to date used to look like…

    3-…and here she is now. So, every time you’d get intimate with her, you’re really getting intimate with the one on the right. Understand?

    SAM: Ummm, you’re saying I’d be getting two for one? SA -WEET!

    DT: DAMMIT, SAM! She has to hide her Adam’s Apple with a choker!

    SAM: Well, it would be odd if we both used bow ties.

    DT: Sigh Forget it! Go ahead and take care of business.

    SAM: That’s ok. It’s more of a janitor chore now… DT: EWWWW!

    Hmm. I still think my favorite Kingston Trio song is The Merry Minuet.

    It is scary how it is as true today as it was in the 1960’s when they wrote and sang it. RIP Kingston Trio.

    Actually, when I saw “Rabbit’s” real name the first association that came to my mind was Dr. Thomas Dooley, who performed medical and humanitarian aid in the jungles of Southeast Asia around the time of the Vietnam War. (I think it later came out he was assisting the CIA).

    On the positive side, we get out of the MCU tomorrow. On the negative side, Tracy and Sam are no longer speaking to each other, so we finish the last 2 weeks in mime. In a shock ending, uniforms spot Sam in his white mime makeup, mistake him for the Joker, and lock him up.

    “He was a small timer…” is this Tracy’s way of saying he was a petty criminal?

    A mug shot of Rabbit….a mug shot of his sister….crime must be in the DNA of this family. No! Hush my mouth….chances are it will be revealed that their father was a deacon in the church. Their mother was a nurse or a librarian. Parents probably had many a sleepless night wondering where did they go wrong.

    When the action gets back to Ferret and Ape…might be a smart move for them to take their vehicle to a chop shop. Yeti asks, what happened to your car? Ferret; we’re were in a bad neighborhood, it got stolen.

    Funny; I’d heard that Tom Dooley was hung by that trio of baddies, the Kingstons. (Okay, feeble attempt at humor.)

    Rabbit is “Thomas Dooley”?! And Ferret is “Constance Dooley”?! Really? Where did these kids go wrong?

    And will the method of Rabbit’s death serve as a sufficient clue to steer Tracy toward Yeti? But wait! Yeti isn’t the one who’s been bumping off gang bosses! There is still a “hidden” villain at work here who must be exposed and brought to justice!

    There are two real-life Tom Dooleys of whom I’m aware. The first was a convicted murderer actually named Thomas C. Dula (hanged in 1868 for the 1866 murder of Laura Foster in North Carolina). The second was Doctor Thomas Anthony Dooley III (1927-1961), a philanthropist known for his humanitarian and anti-communist activities; he died young, from cancer.
