Mary Worth 2768

Uh-oh.... Zak is eating breakfast out of Tommy's favorite "Mighty Thor" cereal bowl.

Wilbur: "What I had in Bogota wasn't real!"

Iris (in her best Raiders of the Lost Ark Knights Templar voice): "You have chosen.....poorly."


And then for the knockout: "Let's be friends." I had flashbacks to my early dating years, and I wasn't balding and tubby then. Not promising for our boy Wilbur.

Zak: “You want me to go over there and fight him, darlin’?”

KitKat said...

This has to be Iris's apartment. I don't picture Zak having All Bran at his place.

By Friday, Wilbur's phone will be the size of a matchbook.

@KitKat: I'm trying so hard not to laugh out loud at what you said about Wilbur's phone. (I'm at work and don't want the guy in the next cube to think I'm more insane than I really am lol). I was thinking the exact same thing about Wilbur's phone.

Hint to Wilbur: When someone says "Let's be friends", what they are really saying is "get lost buster."

I guess the fact that Zak is eating breakfast and checking his phone means that he "ahem" spent the night. I look at Wilbur and look at Zak and Zak is definitely the better option.

Wilbur should go back to Bogota and see if he can get Fabiana away from cousin Pedro, because as long as he has money, she'll love him.

Ah, their love is consummated. And since Zak didn't sneak out before sunrise, this must be the real deal.

But Iris is giving Wilbur way to much phone time. Time to hang up on him for good.

Maybe Wilbur can take cruise to forget his troubles.

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"Thanks To Zak And All Bran, Things Are Moving On".

Sorry, moved on...you.
Not! That's!
Too late. Friends...

Nance, your haiku title is brilliant beyond words. Too funny.

All Bran! No wonder Zak has that smile on his face...

@Nance, I love your haiku title! So, "things are moving on" ... does that mean that Zak = poop?

Never thought of All Bran as an aphrodesiac before...When the box of Splak shows up for breakfast, it will be a clue that there's trouble in paradise..(a la Ian and Toby...)

When does Zak tell Tommy to call him "dad" - and when do the people (Mary & co.) in Charterstone set up an intervention for Wilbur for stalking Iris (and Zak)?

Yahoonski said...

I'm late to the All-Bran joke party, but I think this breakfast choice shows that despite his rapid rise in the business world, Zak just wants to be a regular guy.

Nance said...

@Scottie, @Anonymous--Thanks!

@Yahoonski--Nice one.

So, in the real world, Iris jumps ship and shacks up with Zak so she can avoid any unfortunate meetings. Tommy keeps the Charterstone place clean (under Mary's watchful supervision of course!) and Wilbur and Dawn fall into a deep spiral of trying to out-sullen each other.

KitKat said...

Nance, you have outdone yourself with today's haiku title. In fact, you keep raising the bar!

All the All Bran discussion reminds me of my cousin's remark that the substance doubles as a serviceable driveway patch.

Here's what Toby and Zak have to look forward to.... https://joshreads.com/images/15/08/i150820maryworth.jpg
