We mean weird like … we don’t know what he is — but we’re pretty sure he’s not human!

With his vast knowledge of world geography, Kaz should be able to pinpoint Tiki’s home in no time.

The guy talking out of his right knee thinks Tiki is weird.

Dum duh DUM!,,,,

P1, Then you should have kept your mouth shut, genius.

P2, We mean weird like a Stephen King movie?

P3, And suddenly Kaz realizes second in The Valley is out of the question.

In all reality , Tiki resides with his slow sister in a place known as the Twilight Zone .

Actually, not living in Milford isn’t a symptom, it’s a cure.

Poor guy (as we will all find out). He was sold on the football program of a State Champion and he ends up with the 2018 Mudlarks.

P1- It’s perfectly clear now. Kaz is a vocational school teacher. Andre Ruffin and Joe Bolek co-op at the Milford Road Dept. patching and tarring roads.

He lives in his car with his sister; sister is called slow because that’s how she drives when it’s her turn

Talk about cinema history! He lives in Brigadoon (and wasn’t good enough to make their Varsity)!

We know the parents are missing or incompetent, just a matter of why. Have we had deployed military parent recently?

Kaz’s girlfriend will solve this by tapping a few keys.

I hope Kaz responds with a movie reference.

P3: Kaz’s thought balloon – “not live in Milford….that’s a great idea”

It’s weird because an answer can’t be found simply by staring at a phone screen. It’s disturbing. It must be hunted down and eliminated.

Kaz has a certain Johnny Cash quality about him. No wonder he is so adept at walking the line.

This reminds me the Andy Griffith show episode where the guy came to Mayberry and knew everything about everybody and no one in town had a clue who he was. Barney thought he was some kind of a spy.

Dang, you figured it out again—a problem with the parents! But what exactly will be the problem this time? Oh and we were thinking maybe the film kid could solve the mystery by planting a camera in Tiki’s fuzzy dice, but isn’t a better example for all the kids out there reading the strip to ask an adult to help with the problem?
