Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 16, 2012

Ah, so now we know who Double Up fed to the vine.

Good morning all…

Kassie Ette… ya’ gotta’ love that name!

Kassie has a flat top…

Isn’t she the significant other of the famous country singer CD Lang?

His “companion?”

Assuming this is a homosexual relationship, would that be a first for the DT comic strip?

The colorist made the agency’s walls light purple. i worked in a place that was that color and would have paid money out of my pocket to have been able to paint it a cheerier color.

Kassie Ette huh? I think I met her mother, Eighty Track.

Now I’m reminded of another comic character… Hi Fi Tweeter from Sad Sack comics.

Hmmm, I wonder if the nurse’s identity is significant.

I bet the male nurse’s name is Turner D. Table :) and vista and margueritem i also thought she might be flattop’s relative. i thinhk that maybe cassie isnt as innocent as she seems.. maybe tess and johnny need to call in… ASTRAL TURF for some help on this one! lol :-D

Kass Ette is awfully angular in every aspect (not just her flat top). Either she’s quite a sourpuss or really quite upset at loss of her (alleged) uncle. But why did she turn to the private eyes before the cops?

Kass Ette ? … I’m guessing she’s connected to Mumbles in someway … ??? Maybe?

Sunday, May 6 showed Mumbles with his arm around Vincent Vinyl as Vincent was sitting in his wheel chair. Could it be that Mumbles was acting the part of a male nurse, in order to get close to Vincent? Some sort of elder-care scam?

I also wondered why Kassie Ette went to the private agency instead of the cops. How did she even know that a private agency was on the case? They were employed by the insurance company, because Mumbles aroused their suspicion by putting in a claim before a body was even found.

Male nurse? What does Greg Focker have to do with this? Jack should have kept his eye on him!

Kassie Ette is an heir…and Mumbles is looking for an insurance claim? And no body. Find the companion!

Shouldn’t “I need to speak to you boss” be “I need to hear your master’s voice”?

Wher has Lil Abner gone?! He’s been missing for 2 days now!JimCo

The compantion nurse is having dinner at Panda’s right now.

Kassie Ette, best name since Sue Reel! But why is she harassing Tess? She should talking to the real cops.

why is johnny adonis always shown in profile? lol :)

??? Missed what?

I just realized I spelled Kassie wrong. Well at least I didn’t use an “L” (grin)

Both are dead, and both are plant food. Double Up fed the plant the nurse companion. That is the body Panda knew about. Mumbles fed the plant Vinyl and messed up the plan. Apparently the Mumbles Quartet attempted to poison Vinyl, the plan being to leave his body and make it look like a suicide. Kassie would then get the inheritance easily, but Mumbles messed up the plan by shooting Vinyl in the head, apparently on accident, so he disposed of the body by feeding it to the plant. Panda was shocked to find that body, and that is why he is pissed at Mumbles right now.I am not sure if Kassie is in on the murder, or just greedy. I also have no idea how Mumbles and the rest of Mr. Crime’s crew are planning to get the inheritance from her. I suppose we will all find out.

Kassie Ette must have a very interesting looking brain but it would be difficult to find a skull to fit it in. I’ll talk with my boss about that.
