Perhaps Maude should have asked the question one could extrapolate from panel 4. “Mr. Allgood, are you ashamed of who (what) you are?” That might have stopped the cross-examination right there. If he says yes, then he might as well go over to the topsiders. If he says no, then what’s the problem with each individual taking advantage of what the change has given him/her? Kind of hard to be half ashamed of oneself.
