Mary Worth 4152

Wait, have we met this vet before? I have this vague recollection that at one time we all thought Estelle was going to fall for her vet, but nothing came of it. Was he the guy that got his hand caught in the bus door as it drove off and stretched out his arm five feet? He seems to be recovering nicely.

That dog is seeing angels. Divine inspiration or just really good medication?

Your recollection of Dr. Dennis Doolittle jibes with mine, Wanders. I vaguely recall that he and Estelle might’ve gone to dinner once, but maybe I made that up.

Pierre’s spiked collar and the anti-parasite pills may not be enough to keep Wilbur away. They don’t do anything for Pierre’s appearance.. He’s still one ugly dog.

Yes! This is the very same vet Estelle invited to an unforgettable night at Star Lounge, where she and Wilbur had an epic song battle including belting out “we are never, never, never, getting back together “, before immediately getting back together the next morning over a sack of BBQ takeout.

I hope he’s ok too nowadays. And I hope Estelle follows through with her plan to poison Wilbur with ivermectin. Like Pierre, we should see her energy improve very quickly after all the parasites are killed.

The narration box says, "When IRIS takes her pets . . ." and I thought, What? We didn't know she had pets. And is the honeymoon over, so to speak, already?

Wait a minute here! In the strip, at ComicsKingdom anyway. the narration box says, "When
IRIS takes her pets to the vet..." Somebody's losing it, and I hope it's not me...

Ah, the return of Dr. Ed Harding. I'm too lazy to look for it but I'll bet that's a panel for the old recycle box if ever there was one.

Ha ha, Scottie and I saw that at the same time. What's really fun is that I'm a Scottie, too. Anyway, maybe this opens up the opportunity for a new Worthy Award category: Biggest Blunder of the Year."

Golly gee willikers, my face is red for having missed “Iris” in the narration box. Oh well, Wanders apparently missed it too. (Is this KM’s error or June’s?)

Maybe that’s Nan in a wig and Estelle’s wardrobe and earrings. She broke into Estelle’s Charterstone condo, swiped Libby and Pierre, and is hitting on the vet.

Ewww, parasites. He must have been digging salmon squares out of Mary's trash.
