“Ye Gads, someone has grabbed Annie from behind and is trying to strangle her”! Tracy exclaimed out loud while springing into action. As he bolted away from the plane and towards Annie he quickly figured it would take him about 30 seconds to get to her. “Not as young as I used to be”, he reluctantly acknowledged as he began to huff and breath heavily. He was glad when he saw that Annie was trying hard to get out of the grip of her assailant. “Spunky girl, she’s buying time for me to get to her”
.
Annie, shocked to be attacked from behind was angry at herself than anything else. “How could I be so careless, allowing someone to sneak up behind me”! She though as she tried in vain to loosen the hands wrapped around her throat. “Get off of me Mister”! She managed to blurt out while trying to kick him in his knees. “Sorry girly but I’ve got my orders”! Annie was surprised that she felt no fear, only anger. “Never again will I let anyone harm me”! Annie determined while biting down hard on several fingers wrapped around her mouth causing her assailant to briefly let go while letting out a loud yell. “OOWWWW. Now you’ve done it! I’ll make you suffer greatly for that”!.
A brief look of horror came upon Tracy’s face quickly replaced by one of determination when he realized he was separated from them by an 8 foot fence. Without breaking stride, Tracy leaped as high as he could when he reached the fence, grabbing hold of it about half way up. Summoning up all his strength he climbed the rest of the way to the top, then leaping off he managed to land directly on top of Annie’s assailant, knocking the wind out of both of them..
Annie, bracing herself for his continued attack almost jumped out of her sneakers when out of thin air someone suddenly jumped on top of her attacker, causing a quick end to his attack on her.“Gee Mister, thanks! You saved my life”! Annie looked towards the two men who were lying on the ground behind her. Her assailant who was definitely knocked out and the guy who seemed to come out of nowhere to save her from certain death. She watched as he struggled to rise to his feet, finally making it upright..
“Are you alright, young lady”? Annie gave Tracy a quick look-over, deciding right away that she’d never seen him before. “Doesn’t matter who he is, he saved my life, that’s for sure”! She thought to herself before answering him. “I am now but golly, I’d be dead if you hadn’t stopped this guy from strangling me”!“Glad to be of assistance. Do you know who this bum is”? Annie looked directly at the face of her assailant who was lying on his back, deep in la la land. “Gee, I don’t know, maybe I’ve seen him before,,Wait! I have seen him. He’s the guy who handed me a flyer just a little while ago”. Annie handed the flyer she’d put in her pants pocket to him to look at. She waited a moment as he looked over the flyer then heard him say, “The mysterious Dr. Magpie. Very interesting”! Annie, figuring she’d been patient long enough decided it was time to get tough.
“Who are you Mister and why were you on this Warbucks International plane”? Annie saw that the guy was thinking about what she asked him then was very surprised to when she heard his answer. “Why, my name is Dick Tracy and I work for Oliver Warbucks. He asked me to investigate Dr. Magpie”!.

Poor Marigold. She is about to get close to a bad Penny.

I held my tongue regarding the bad Penny and her eventual dinner date with Marigold, but it wasn’t easy.

She’s about to be introduced to the mf-ing snake on the mf-ing plane as Samuel L. Jackson would put it.
