Mary Worth 1947

Their interactions are easier to observe when you sit them on the same side of the table. Is that a mannequin arm that Sean is waving around to add emphasis to his remarks? Isn't Hanna supposed to be watching Gordon tonight? Sean strikes me more as the kind of guy who has pockets. Still no sign of Chin Napkin?

Yes, Sean seems to have been disarmed by Mary's comment. Maybe that's why he's not interacting with his mashed avocado and shrimploaf.

Tired of Chin napkin's commentary, Mary has rudely decided not to provide any napkins for her guests.

The seating arrangement only makes sense if there are other guests at the table, but these mystery guests seem to be very quiet. Maybe if you're really quiet, you get a napkin.

Mr. KitKat suggests that Toby is an unseen "guest," stationed behind the massive artwork, which is actually a sort of two-way device. As Mary's Apprentice Meddler, Toby is taking notes on the Dingdon-Hastings interactions.

Who says "we're seeing a Debussy concert"? Real people say, "We're going to the [name of musical entity] concert to hear them play Debussy." Unless Claude Debussy has returned from the Great Beyond and is on tour in Santa Royale....

Wisely, Mary has not allowed any of them to eat with forks. No one needs to have a Cutlery Accident.

(I am Alarmed by any shrimp one can eat with a spoon.)

Oh God, I miss Bobby Black !

Sean Hastings said...

Actually, Hanna, I prefer playing with myself.

Well, we know what's coming up next: Mary will 'report her findings' to that nitwit, Toby. They will then proceed to judgmentally analyze every conversation nuance and speculate as to the future of Hanna and Sean's whirlwind relationship. Mary will declare her blessings to the union and a wedding will be held forthwith.

NEXT!

Off topic, Worthiverse friends. I took a bad fall on Wednesday, and am in the hospital recovering from surgery to repair a spectacularly broken leg. I will live to snark again, and would appreciate good thoughts, positive energy and old fashioned prayers. So far I haven't seen any silver haired volunteers looking to drop big grey books on my shin.

Oh, no, fauxprof! Take heart: since your surgeon could not have been Dr. Kapuht, you should recover quickly. Positive energy definitely coming your way!

Hannalana Dingdong @ 3:50 - That has popped into my mind so many times since we learned of Hannah's flute playing. LOL

Speedy recovery, fauxprof!

fauxprof, I wish you a speedy recovery. The Worthiverse needs your full attention as one of its key interpreters.

fauxprof- at least you don't have a cyst on your torso. Be well.

birdie said...

Take care, Fauxprof!

And remember not to let any bad doctors work on you. You can tell they are bad if their mustache appears and disappears randomly.

KitKat said...

Dear @fauxprof, I am so sorry to hear about your accident. I am sending my prayers and good wishes from Cleveland to Akron, and I hope you mend well. If the various Doctors Cory try to enter your room, call Security immediately!

Sandi Ego said...

@fauxprof, eek, hope that leg heals quickly. No fun at all. I'm sending you a virtual kelk casserole. Enjoy!

Hope you have a speedy recovery, Fauxprof! So sorry to hear of your nasty fall. I hope hospital hi-fi is playing all your favorite holiday tunes to cheer you up as you pass the time!
