Bomb time?

is there a plan in motion now?…

He is working for “Traitor” Joe’s.

Good morning™, Unauthorized Personnel !

If it’s not the workings of a bomb then it could at least start a really good fire ?  Are he and dad in league, is he stringing the old boy along ?

This story is moving so slowly, even Sally the Sloth is getting impatient!

I admit I’d like to see what’s in that chest. Kinda reminds me of the atomic bomb in Goldmember. Er, I mean Goldfinger at Fort Knox.

Are they in the clock tower?!

And, we remain clueless on what any of this has to do with anything.

What is happening in panel 1?

“Our slavish army of janitors is all set to SWEEP down the over the city and CLEAN UP!”

“I’ve put up pretty, lacy drapes up in the living room! Now for a festive throw and some puffy sofa pillows! I’ve already got a tenant. Someone named Sneaky Sam! Sounds like a fun guy, even if he paid the deposit with fresh-looking bills stamped ’Evidence..” "

I can’t WAIT to see your faces when it’s revealed tat the clock tower is a TARDIS and Sam is The Master!

“…….oooooh, ah’m learnin’ a LOT from yew, dayyyad!”

Junior is back to that broken nose pug look. Just who the hell was his real dad anyway???

1- FRED JR: AH-HA! So that’s where I left the yarn I’m going to use to knit Dad a birthday sweater!

2- : … AH-HA! Not only is “Access Prohibited”, it’s also thwarted by a locked door!

3- : AH HA! Oh. I mean “hello”. Sorry. What’s that, Dad? Stop by the grocery and pick up some milk and bread? Ok…Yeah, love you too. Ah ha. DANG IT! I mean “good bye”

… except the story

I’ve been thinking a lot about retropop’s theory posted yesterday that the storyline was changed, which made the two-week MM-break necessary. Perhaps it has gone from the villains being a neo-Nazi terrorist organization to just Fred Jr. I have a theory about why TCA wanted the change, which I will keep to myself.

I said it before, I think they have something they want to happen on NYE and realized they mistimed it which is why they dropped the minute mystery into the time line.

I heard that the guy that invented the “wind chill factor” died today. He was 87 years old, but he said it felt like 63.

Very nice ! and Funny,
