Nancy by Olivia Jaimes for April 28, 2023

Glad that computer club debacle is finally over!!

So if Fritzi is running late for work, I wonder who will be coming to babysit Nancy? Or will she leave the 9-year-old Nancy alone in the house to run amuck?

In “Nancy: The Musical,” just after Aunt Fritzi asks for Nancy’s assistance, Nancy sings the following melody,

“Why are you in so such hurry?

Is it really worth the worry?

Look around, then slow down.

What’s it like inside the bubble?

Is your hair giving you trouble?

It’s so wet, let it set.

Hang on, help is on its way,

I’ll be there as fast as I can.

Hang on, I’m Nancy and I say,

I’ve come up with a genius plan."

Oh, hey, it’s Fritzi. It’s been a while.

Yes, I’m sure that works.

No! Let’s get back to Lyle and Estella! LOL (Lots ahead in the next month or so – the resolution of the Lyle/Estella subplot; this year’s match with the magnet school, which is having its own leadership subplot; and the very real possibility that Nancy will find out she’s being held back due to poor grades!)

Nature abhors a vacuum, but Nancy & Fritzi find it useful!

Knowing Nancy, she’s got a shop vac stashed somewhere.

OK. Where’d the irises in Fritzi’s eyes go in panel 1?
