Hey! It’s Edison! We’ll be seeing more of her pretty soon. Why, it’s less than 24 (Groovy, Kinda) hours until she comes home and we can reunite our four main characters!
And it’s nice to see that Eleanor and Lyssa have come together at last. Well, as together as they’re going to be at the moment.
I could tell you what’s coming up, but that’d give the surprise away! You’ll just have to follow along…
Did Larry seriously try to calm Eleanor down by hosing her down? That’s a hilariously bad idea.
And Edison is heartbreaking even when she’s “happy”. Makes me wonder if she wants another baby? Or perhaps she just wants to start over on everything? Still, it might be best to focus on the relationship she has with the one she’s got. At least they took a step in the right direction recently.
He did say he was going to get the hose in the last strip.Well, it did calm them down, after all.
And poor Edison. She might want a baby with Larry. She might just want Larry to flatter her by having the “baby talk.”
But of course it’ll never happen. She seems to be reflecting on all the things she traded away for drinking.
Wow, that third panel, Charlie. Chills all up and down my arms.
Guess Larry’s little hose idea backfired, huh? I guess that’s what happens when you go up again a power far greater than you. Love the fact that he’s changed shirts inbetween too. Great touch.
Yeah. I felt really bad for Edison when I was drawing that.
And the hose idea worked perfectly. It calmed them down and got them working together.
Yeah, he got soaked and tied up. But I’m sure Allen and Lyssa kept Eleanor from bringing out the branding irons.
And Larry is in his pj’s. Just like The Girl With The Cucumber Eyes…
I guess Edison’s a really complex woman, kinda lonely and afraid for her son and her lover.
And as Hjels said that third panel……pointed and very poignant!
Finding out about Lyssa’s pregnancy got Edison all excited and in a “mom” mode. And then reality reared its ugly head.
Who knows? Maybe she’ll have a couple of talks with Larry.
That look that Edison has, is she pregnant too? I also think that melaredblu may have a point in that Edison may be ready to have another child, but is afraid to give up the booze.
I hope she’s not pregnant. Not with all the drinking she’s done on this vacation.
You and melaredblu may be right. She might want another child. Would it be worth giving up drinking to her?
Oh, Edison. It was good to see her again. But now I’m kinda depressed. Poor, Edison. You have to make her happy in the next strip. At least in one panel lol.
Ummm… at the risk of giving something away, I’ll say that I couldn’t comply with your wishes, my friend.
Maybe the strip after?
Hold the Phone……..
Stephanie, panel Four……how did we miss that.
Brilliant backdrop.
I imagine their conversation went something like:
Larry: You don’t have to wear the cold cream anymore, Stephanie. Besides, it gets all over the-
Stephanie: Miss Edison said you’d say that, so she made me promise to wear it every single night.
Edison showing some wisdom.
Looking forward to seeing more of her, and her developing reconnection with Dilbert.
I do suspect Tears and Hugs in equal measure as it’s never going to be easy.
Hee, hee. It looks like they turned the hose on Larry before they wrapped him in it. Now that’s Groovy, Kinda karma. 🙂
You’ve got that right, brother!
