Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for February 26, 2022

“I mean, my eardrums are exploding here! How can I stay in school without eardrums?”

P 3.5: Gil: I agree, but I don’t write the strip.. Gil only pawn in game of life.

Snitches get stitches

What’s with all the empty picture frames? Shouldn’t they be filled with 2nd in the Valley certificates?

Sammy “The Bull” Gravano steps up to the plate to rat out Pranit Gotti!

“You gotta step in, Coach. This is crazy. I mean, just because you’re on the faculty here doesn’t give you the right to stiff one of your players on the money you owe him. And speaking of crazy, what kind of a Super Bowl bet is $50 on ‘whichever team breaks out the Delaware Wing-T first’?”

Talk about crazy, this conversation has meandered up and down the hallways and in and out of the building.

Gil is wondering who this kid is in his office.

Double the fun on a Saturday GilPa strip, still a Quinn Martin Production. EES for eyes and ears. What’s Gil to do, have a talk with Junior or send him to Momma Mimi for a 1950’s style spanking?

And kdizzle, sometimes snitches get prickly switches.

P3: Yeah, bring back Double D to the storyline.

What a twist! Who saw Gordon being the snitch?

I think all would agree, the sublime floor work in P2 is a Luhm masterpiece.

P 4: “… get them to put the focus back on Hollis instead of me…”

Is P2 a metaphor for the fact that R&W are skating through this story arc with so little effort being expended?

P-1: With his poor eye sight, Gordon’s right misses Pranit’s jaw by 2 feet.

P-2: pretty bad when the best thing in the cell is the floor. Now, all we need to know is who polished the recessed lighting.

P-3: Even the characters can’t take this story anymore. Gordon begs Gil to have a talk with R&W.

At sometime in the fairly recent past I thought that there was 2 story lines. One was Pranit gambling, the other was girls basketball captain who was going bananas over someone drinking some “hard seltzer” at a party she invited herself too then thinking she was a really great person that everyone loved as the rest of the team walked out on her. Wonder if that marked the end of that story line, massive narcissism by the soon to be former captain of the girls bb team.

Geez… if they are going to show the soles of shoes so much, they could at least show something funny like a wad of gum or dog crap stuck to them

P2: Say what you will about this strip, but at least it’s got sole.

P3- Okay, but who’s Plunkit?

At first read I thought Gordon said, “You want me to hurl guys?” I was thinking, yeah! That would look awesome! But who is that in P3? A visiting NFL lineman? And speaking of visiting, it’s about time you were visiting today’s Mopped Up Thorp.
