it’s a plot twist folks just like the magician will direct your vision to the lovely assistant so to is dick misleading you, just because you see null in one frame and an exploding house in the next does not mean it was nulls house.
Tess quickly backed away from Dick and turned her face to try and get some fresh air. She angrily realized that she had gotten so wrapped up in her attempt to convince Dick to let her join forces with sweet Angelorious she totally forgot about his nasty habit of letting one rip whenever he was under pressure.
“Dang”, she thought before continuing, “that was a classic”!
“Dick, this line of cosmetics……is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity”.
Tess, noticing that sweet Angelorious had stopped dancing with the wall continued to explain as she held her nose.
“Just think, the Dick Tracy aura spread throughout America”.
Dick, vaguely aware of what Tess was talking began to inhale deeply.
“What’s that funky odor”? he wondered to himself.
“Something doesn’t smell right, Tess”. He firmly said.
Meanwhile, at professor Noll’s lab his favorite dessert, deep fried Oreo’s was just being served.
Of course something doesn’t smell right. This story stinks. Besides, we’re all still chortling over that “smell of Dick in the morning” crack from earlier in the week.
Perhaps the one Dick ‘ripped’ is what interfered with Locher turning the page? Today’s strip is almost identical to yesterdays, minus the Noll’s ‘Oreo’ cookie eye. No one want’s to imply that Jeff is disingenuous but that sliver forward movement could hardly be classified as ‘breakneck speed’ and gives credence to thinking that it really was just dilusional.
BB Today’s and and the last paragraph yesterday where ‘classics’. You, with great ‘ACCURACY’ slipped the knife in between the ribs and painfully turned it.

Did she say “aura” or “odor”?

My guess is that a disfigured Nubby Noll will be moving in with the Tracy family while his house is rebuilt. He may even be missing more fingers.
Locher continues his lack of consistency with a totally different looking Tess in panel 1. I guess he doesn’t look at what he draws previously.

The house doesn’t look like it’s exploding to me. Just fumes of something coming out of it.

The house is still passing gas from the burrito Dr. Stumps ate 2 days ago.
Even the window is falling off from the smell.
Oh, wait, that’s the smell of the new new DT Eau de Toilette.
