Mary Worth 1,165

I think faithful reader Birdie is right: Alison at Diner is in deep, deep trouble. And Alison has a motive. Mary always left her biggest tips for Gina, but only 12 percent to Alison.

Today's Full Strip

    "Toby, don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."
    As Mary's skin takes on a greenish tinge, and her lavender sweatshirt starts to split, Toby thinks, "Mary, I don't like you when you're not angry, either."
    Mayhem ensues in Restaurant as Mary completely hulks out and starts to look for Johnny No Eyes and his moll.

    (per today's secret message): And she doesn't have to take care of a family! Which means she can be a vigilante fulltime! Unlike Dr. Mike's dear old Dad. Which clearly didn't stop him.

    quite possibly the single most frightening picture of mary worth that we have ever seen.

    Today's WV is "bress" As in the first words from Mary tomorrow "...now where did I leave my bress knuckles..."

    Toby, Toby, Toby. If ANY old biddy was spasming in front of me, an evil scowl on her face, I would NOT be standing there thoughtballooning exclamation points. I would run. RUUUUNN, Toby! She's probably going to turn on you for prattling on about how SAFE you are.

    Steely blue eyes, flashing with the wrath of ages, burning with the fire of a thousand suns!

    Her AARP card was in that wallet!

    Dang, look at the size of Mary's neck, or, I should say, her no-neck. Mary's got 'roid rage.

    Connected pearl earrings must be the new vigilante fashion. That sweatshirt is all wrong, though.

    Oh God, what just happened? One minute I was opening today's MW&Me page, the next I was passed out on the floor. All I remember is the vision of a bull charging at me and a pair of piercing eyes seemingly seeking revenge. I may be scarred for life!
    Cool story though :-D

    In panel one, Toby appears to be smirking at Mary's dilemma. "Ha! Serves that old biddy right for always sticking her nose in people's business!"

    Will we get to hear (er,see) Mary say the magical phrase: "Those damn dirty stinking hippies"?

    @phoebes - tomorrow?? don't you mean we'll have to wait until a week from tomorrow to find out who Mary's mad at? Let's not move too quickly here, it would be totally out of character...

    Oh, please, let the Sunday recap include a flashback picture of those shifty no-good-niks in their bad 70s clothing.

    Mary can't blame Alison Kelrast for her lost wallet-she was carrying an orange purse on her last apparent visit to Diner.
    I think Hell's Granny (tm Monty Python) is going out to confront the wallet-stealing. vest-wearing, peace symbol pendant- sporting, self-satisfied smirking Santa Royale adult delinquents.

    Does Mary have eyes in the back of her head? (Probably)

    Did she actually see the No Eyes with Smirks couple lifting her Wallet (No doubt)

    But I have to say she's got no style. Vigilante rage is like, so 3 or 4 story "arcs" ago.

    Morty Seinfeld did it much better:
    My wallet's gone! My wallet's gone!

    I blame it on the Occupy Santa Royale protesters.

    When Mary hulks out, will her string of pearls snap, scattering dainty little spheres all over Restaurant?

    Or will the necklace, like the Hulk's trousers, inexplicably remain intact despite the great increase in size of its wearer?

    By the end of the week there will be no 70's hipsters left undamaged by Mary's Charles Bronson-like revenge. I would like it if she punched Jeff once (or twice) first just to amp up a little more.

    Right now, protesters from Occupy Santa Royale are using Mary's credit cards to order pizzas and camping gear from enormousshop.com. Power to the people!

    Toby's gone cross-eyed from sitting at The Lemon Wedge for days listening to Mary's inane chatter. Looks like Mary's dining experience has been a "sour" one, heh heh.

    Really? The Lemon Wedge?
