Transcript:
Jack: Tsk. Tsk. Bliss, your lame attempts to get past me are equal only to Wile. E. Coyote's attempts to catch the road runner. Tsk. Tsk. And hiring a soldier who bums around the globe looking for danger? - He seems to be better at kissing than his job. Tsk. Tsk. Rip: How'd you know when we would be here? Jack: Ms. Cobra Carson sends her regards, Mr. Haywire. Rip: Sweet Bonnie McBack - stab!

Dear Rip, I’m Sorry…But it just won’t work. I’m Sure the New Woman in your life will be very understanding of Your Commitment-phobic, Danger riddled,Globe trotting Lifestyle. Assuming,of course, that either of you (And Your Little Dogs Too!!) survive the attentions of my Dear Friend and Confidante’ River Jack. Have a Good Life…..All 2 Minutes Of it! Love, Cobra
P.S. Your Mother and I are sending RJ to S.K.U.L.L. Military training Camp for some Valuable Life Lessons.

It’s been a while since we had a “Sweet Bonnie”. Let me savor it. … Ahhh.

Oh, Rip, what did you expect, especially once you started making kissy-face with Bliss? On the bright side, since Cobra and Rip aren’t married, no alimony worries! :-)
Uncle_Bad about 13 years ago
Oh sure Dorian, there’s no alimony, but she’ll take her settlement out in PAIN! Selling Rip out to river pirates? That’s just the warm-up, mark my words.

Rip Haywire… Best. Soap. Opera. Strip. Ever!.BTW… Veridian’s farewell letter is absolutely PRICELESS!!! What are the chance that Mr. Thompson would somehow include it in the strip?

At the risk of prognosticating, could true romance finally be in the cards for Rip? In his shoes I’d take Bliss any day (When I was younger I put myself in Archie’s shoes and, for no particular reason, named Betty as my preference).
