Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for July 29, 2020

Separated at birth.

I thought when she talked to the Milford catcher at the game between Valley Modified and Milford. She would be in a story line. Maybe around spring softball season,just not this soon.

Corina as goalie on new Milford girls soccer team? Huge knuckleball mitt looks like whole chicken on steroids that was just delivered by Diner supplier. Awwwk!

Even the waitress is giving us the all-knowing look to tell us we’re not going to be impressed by theses two.

In all reality , Gee Bestie I thought you’d never ask about my plans ! Maureen / Mo to the diner regulars thinks to herself I wish someone would have asked me about my future when I was a teenager , maybe I wouldn’t be a divorced , working in this dump .

I am totally confused by the art in P 1. Does Maureen have a right arm below the elbow? And did she just serve the two girls a whole watermelon?

P-2: You know, just like these stories.

P1, Maureen has the same look as the rest of us. Why am I here and when do we get back to Milford CC? Luckily for you, Mo this is your first and last appearance in this strip.

P2, Sorry, but you’ll find none of those things in this strip.

P3, That’s for the readers in case any of this brilliant dialogue goes over our heads.

Maureen/Mo. 7/15/2020 she serves True the perfect hash browns. 7/16/2020 she calls him Hon. And we thought her name was Flo. Mo has that look, counting the minutes to her next smoke break.

P 1 waitress thought balloon: “….Geez….one of them must’ve ripped one because I know it ain’t me this time…”

P 3: "Pheebs sure likes to do a lot of pointing with that man hand of hers

Maureen is thinking, “Are you readers actually following this storyline?”

How did Pheebs get that major makeover between P1 and P3?

What’s with the pearls??

Maureen serves drinks to two high school kids and starts thinking of how she’ll spend her 25 cent tip.

Maureen gives us a look of "You seein’ this slish?

Wait, where is she pointing while she’s saying “What’s with the catcher’s mitt?” At Maureen? That’s pretty cruel, just cause her face has wrinkles.

And speaking of wrinkles, Mopped Up Thorp is always trying to throw a few wrinkles into the plot.

P 2: “..Oh, I don’t know…there sure have been some dumb stories lately…lame pickup baseball game, fake test cheating scandal, the whole ‘call me dad’ bit, hadley v. baxendale and Milford school board…I think that I can come up with something better….”

These two are HILARIOUS! Coming this fall to NBC: Keener and Korenna; watch their daily hijinks as they walk the streets of Milford.
