Yes, Emily, and try not to get kidnapped again. Because, of course, you realize it was your own fault.

Well, it turns out that it wasn't the head of Wayne the Kidnapper (severed as Bill the Manager assisted the police with his kitchen cleaver) in Mr. Smith's bag after all... Just some fruit. Of course, Bill, Bree and Ronnie didn't get as large a fruit basket as Mary Worth got. They each got only a pear. So all is right in the world.

Well, as Mary Worth lounges in her Forever Lazy, we can either expect a new story, or Emily's family is coming to find out how Emily can become a model. I mean, Mary said she knows somebody.Today's Full Strip

I'm thrilled that Mary Worth has passed judgment and approved of Emily's parents. Though I'm not sure how she did it since she doesn't seem to have ever been at the police station. And great move by the police to haul Emily down to the station to visit with addicts and prostitutes while she waits for her goodly parents to arrive, instead of letting her wait at Diner with a free bowl or rainbow

While Mary is relieved that she didn't have to "physically tangle" with Wayne the Kidnapper, the rest of us, of course, are also very relieved. Although she appears more than capable in the panel above, watching Mary Worth duke it out with a hardened criminal would not have been interesting at all.Today's Full Strip

I hope he's willing to wait at least a "week." I'll be traveling without a "laptop," and I hate to miss "anything."My "experiment," posting from my "iPhone," didn't really "work." So it looks like I'll have to come up with some sort of recap when I return. In the meantime, here's hoping the "police" never arrive.Today's Full Strip

Also, if you separate them and it turns out she's not Emily Smith, you could be arrested for kidnapping when the police arrive. This is really just a test post to see if I can post using my iPhone because I will be traveling all next week.

If McThuggy suddenly tries to leave, another stalling technique Bree can use is to wrap him up in her elastic arm and hold him until the police arrive.
