Hard to imagine any demand whatsoever for “The Fuse”; even the comic strip can’t be bothered to show any patrons.
If this storyline ends with anything aside from the DeGroots filing bankruptcy for an absurdly stupid business decision or Mr. Gray successfully organizing a bust out, I’ll consider it the most fake part of Luann’s universe, narrowly ahead of (1) Toni having an interest in Brad and (2) the characters from Luann’s high school all hanging out through the year even though they’ve gone to different colleges.
Is there an actual business plan for this place? It seems to be fusing bankruptcy with a couple of months.
