Wearing red shoes in the garden can be a deadly error… as discovered by Daphne Heap in the opening scene of Brewster McCloud. [Daphne Heap played by Margaret Hamilton. Yes, the same Margaret Hamilton who menaced Dorothy in Oz.]
Meanwhile , Corina and her Mom attend the Milford VFW’s Memorial Day program to honor those who died serving our country . When Taps is played they both shed silent tears and Corina remarks I wish more people would remember the true meaning of Memorial Day. In all reality , I wish they would too .
P1. “At least so I heard from Moon’s broadcast. Gonzo finally got him out of there.” P2. “Coincidentally, she had three broken fingers on her right hand because no one taught her how to bunt.” P3. They are both teenagers playing a sport with only “life” coaches.
Looks like the Thorps are gearing up for some classic meddling into their kids’ affairs. At least Mimi is looking a little more normal today, except in P3 where she’s reverted back to her college aged face. While Gil is looking way too old to be with her. And speaking of old, Mopped Up Thorp never grows old.

Gil must be a Bears fan with that clashing blue and orange outfit. While Mimi’s bright red slippers are straight out of Oz.

Yo Mimi – You don’t plant bonsai trees in your yard! Especially in bedroom slippers.

P1, How the hell would I know? I’ve been here with you all day.
P2, Mimi looks like she could be Gil’s grandaughter, if only they had had children.
P3, Well, you still look like a teenager, Mimi.

For a strip that is obsessed with hands, Gil’s P1 meat hook is a disaster. With that limp right wrist, his hand and fingers must be at least 18" long!

Told you Mugs Zagnut would get lit up like a Christmas tree in his next start.
What a fine late May Day for GilPa to help Mimi plant her bush. Wishing all a safe Memorial Day.

Time for Gil and Mimi do what they do best…. Meddle in someone’s business like only a mother-in-law could

So you have to fix their romance so they can concentrate on sports?

C’mon everyone with the red shoes comments. Don’t you recognize a pair of hideous crocs when you see one?

Bench/ cut both of them. Problem solved for each team. They can figure things out on their own.

What kind of monsters would make their teams play on Memorial day?? At least they got the game in early so they do their gardening,
