Whoa there Mrs B you might want to start rationing that dinner spread a little bit now that Del won’t be pulling in the big solvent dollars for a while.
And just where is Gil while all this is going on? Something else weird about Milford just occurred to me. When I was in high school, if it was baseball season, the track and tennis teams would also be in the locker room. In the fall, it was football and cross country. In the winter, basketball, soccer (yes, it was a winter sport back then) and swimming. In Milford, only Gil’s teams are in the locker room, and he still can’t keep on top of things.
In all reality , the empty placemat is set in case any of Barry’s friends stop by for dinner . Note how shiny the table is ,has Mop opened his own Merry Mop home cleaning service , are franchises available ?
P3- Ella Bader seems quite content. Did she attend the weekly wine club meeting at Mrs. Lark’s house? Near Delbert’s placemat is one angry bowl of gruel.
why can’t they put a week’s worth of conversation on here? This is so boring and it is just dragging out. I bet we don’t know anything more at Christmas.
For someone named Big Ken Brown he sure has some itty bitty feet in P1.
With boo out of the picture Tru(e) and Big Ken Brown look to finally close the deal in P2.
Dammit Master, I told you to wear gloves when you grab chips out of a bowl. I wash your clothes, I know what you do with that suddenly tiny hand. Is that prison loaf they’re having for dinner to show their solidarity with dear old dad?
Looks like Momma Bader is having a tall cool Tom Collins with dinner. Sure hope she’s not driving anywhere.
Glad to see the disastrous turn that their family life took isn’t affecting their appetites. And speaking of appetites, I hope you left room for some dessert – today’s Mopped Up Thorp.
P-1: as presentedP-2: darn right it was, what have you been eating?P-3: You mean Uncle Bob? (as she slowly strokes the tall thin glass) He’s going to see dad, tomorrow. Why don’t you visit your old friend Timmy in Central City after school? I’ll just be negotiating “Legal Fees” in the afternoon; maybe we can order carry out. I may not have time to uh, cook.

I can’t wait to see what MUT does with P2… looks like he’s leaning in for a kiss.

In a show of optimism, Ma Bader leaves Del’s empty placemat on the table.

After a verbal smack down like that, young Bader may not be feeling himself for a while.

Barry’s only crime was loving his drunk-driving dad too much.

@Ellisburkes: she wouldn’t have to be. To add excitement to the story she could introduce the Flying B Brothers
