Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for June 17, 2023

You two stop butting in. I’m telling the story.

Dr. Zeal may have had a concussion too. At least, this is not Detective Honey’s ‘former fiancee’.

And they’d have gotten aways with it too if not for the meddling Rip.

Rue, rue, rue your boat…

Breezy wounded his ego, then she wounded his head. Go Breezy!

That’ll sway the jury on Breezy,

Easy-peasy lemon-squeezy!

That’s right Rip. You’re trying to tell the story. Don’t let Dr. Lothario, and, the ex-DA mess it up with details. But wouldn’t the “lovebirds” go someplace tropical, with no extradition treaty?

Reminds me of the scene near the end of “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid” where the detective (Steve Martin) is competing with the bad guy to explain the plot.

Why didn’t the two love-birds just go to Mexico/Puerto Rico to begin with, and forget the “frame Breezy” plan? No jail time involved!

This is what is known in the industry as a bailout ending

KA-RUE!

Instead of going to Puerto Rico, those two fiends are going to prison.

Dr. Zeal to Breezy: You’ll rue this day! Well…go on! Start ruing!

LOL! :)

KA-group effort, Rip.
