"Rainbow Swirl, as in That's what your gonna see when I whack you on the back of the head with our industrial sized KitchenAid mixer."Faithful reader "howardsgirlfriend" pointed out that our current story is ripped from the headlines in this 2005 CNN News article. It's really worth the read. Very touching.

Wow, Thuggy gets a bottle and the girl gets, what, a salmon/kelk disc and burnt fries?
Just like my holiday meals!
Uh-oh. In addition to shaving, Thuggy's neck has doubled in size again in panel two. Good think he has the "green bottle" (wink, wink) to calm him down...
Bring on the crayons, Bree!
I don't understand Wanders's insinuation. In the real life story, it was a waitress and her manager who went outside, looked at the poster and stalled real life Thuggy. Also, the girl ordered some vanilla flavored dish, I believe. Where does he see a parallel to this swirly rainbow story? Is he accusing Moy of plagiarizing real life? Anyway, I sure don't get what he's trying to imply.
Wait, they're already on dessert?! How long were Mary and Bree arguing in the parking lot, anyway? I see that Thuggy has a bottle of cooking wine.
Ripping stories from the headlines? (Well, six-year-old headlines.) Karen Moy, "Law and Order" wannabee.
wv: whers
As in, "Where's Wilbur? We haven't seen him in AGES!"
Rainbow Swirl's symbol from my little pony is a bowl if ice cream...
Oh that's her all right!!!!
Shmoopie, it appears that Karen Moy is playing the ol' "Law and Order" trick. When you can't think of any storylines, just take something from real life, change the names and voila, bring on the Emmys
Moy probably thinks she thought this storyline up herself, when it was really a memory of that story.
I wonder if Mary will next find Emily's family bludgeoned to death...
It's nice to know that all you have to do to cheer up a kidnapped kid is give her a bowl of free ice cream.
wv: michoo
All right, who's been spreading cold germs around the blog?
Meanwhile, Mary is desparately searching the parking lot for phone booth to change into her tights, mask and cape (finely coordinated in salmon, taupe, and blue) so she can spring onto the scene as her Super Hero alter Ego "The Meddler."
I wish I could change my haircolor just by having a meal in a diner.
I'm surprised Moy has even gotten around to news from 2005! I'm also surprised Giella didn't draw "shaking" lines around Bree to indicate how nervous she is about keeping Thuggy and Emily seated.
...for a pretty girl? Bree, your little customer has not bathed in days, sleeps in the basement by the furnace and has Kelk in her teeth.
Maybe Emily wants rainbow swirl so she can write a note in the ice cream to Bree "help me I am being kidnapped by this thug", but like other waitresses at DINER, Bree will ignore the table until the rainbow swirl ice cream has melted into a goopy mess.
This is too grim.
why does the diner look like marys kitchen today ?
Please, please, get Emily home by Christmas......2012.
I Googled green beer bottles to see if I could figure out what Thuggy is drinking. I think they were probably going for Lech beer - because of the name.
I think Thuggy is drinking olive oil from that green bottle. Gross, but true.
Good for the real-life waitresses who saved Shasta!
In the Worthiverse, Bree will probably be distracted when she finds her childhood love in the pages of Men's Fitness magazine, and Thuggy and Kidnappee will flee into the parking lot, only to run into...
THE MEDDLER!
Or, maybe only Tim Tebow can save them now!
