Ok, one more straw on the Holly back. How many of the people in the room here are going to by standing there waving as the elevator doors close in front of her?
Too bad he brought a razor to a gun fight.Doc is too short to cover him.We all know the Rat will fire if so instructed.Its in their Manual! This was the Rat who worked under Flask. Her second in command after she took over from Mallard.
The Straight Razor Cabaret, by Aurelio Voltaire..In a caféOn the Champs-ÉlyséesI saw a girl the other dayI was beguiled‘Til I saw her smileIt was a gash across her face.Not long ago, she found that she was aloneSo she wandered into the vaudeville showShe should’ve known it’d be bad,She saw the name that it had:The Straight Razor CabaretThe first act was a stripperAnd the host looked like Jack the RipperBut the audience was drearySo he slashed them smiles from ear to ear.He used a straight razor,‘Cause he’s a face-raperAnd there’s nothing he hates moreThan a stick in the mudAnd if he tells a joke,You better laugh until you chokeAt the Straight Razor Cabaret.When I went down to Camden TownI saw a man reading the BibleI won’t in haste describe his faceFor I might be sued for libel.Not long ago, he found that he was aloneSo he wandered into the vaudeville showHe should’ve known he’d be maimedWhen he discovered the name:The Straight Razor CabaretWhile a strumpet stroked a donkeyThe host juggled five dead monkeysBut the audience were snobsSo he took a knife right to their gobs.He used a straight razor,‘Cause he’s a face-raperAnd there’s nothing he hates moreThan a stick in the mudAnd if he does a trickYou better laugh until you’re sickAt the Straight Razor Cabaret.La-la, la-la-la-la-laLa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-laLa-la, la-la-la-la-laLa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la.They call him straight razor‘Cause he’s a face-raper, And there’s nothing he hates moreThan a stick in the mudIf he pulls a gaffeYou better bloody up and laugh,At the Straight Razor CabaretAt the Straight Razor CabaretAt the Straight Razor CabaretI don’t know that to tell you, except that I love that song!
Apparently our friend with the razor doesn’t understand that the rats will shoot at the drop of a hat and they aren’t particular about what kind of hat is dropped.
About the previous cartoon, it was cool that the rat showed up with his to-do list and went about it so matter-of fact like.A Rat with a plan that came from a very frosty kitty.
Time out. First of all, this isn’t now, it’s then. Second, we don’t even know if this is actually what happened then. The dittos work off of memories (ie Wally’s war flaskback) The only one HERE who was THERE is Holly, so this has to be based on her memories. Given Holly’s mental state when last we saw her, who knows what shape her memories are in with regard to what actually happened. We are so far down the rabbit hole I wouldn’t be too surprised by anything at this point. How about “Off with his head!” ;-)
We know that Endtown was created in the past for the future big amesworth war (or at least it was in a different dimension, but let’s play with the thought that the same happened in this dimension).What if more information about future events were left in the past as well? Maybe a Flask from another dimension was revived and helped to build Endtown in the past in this dimension as well, and she left logs of future events?Which could include some names. These names would then be VIPs, because they knew that they needed the help of those specific persons in the future.Which could also explain why the war started “a tick earlier”, Flash left the date of when the war started in her dimension and it happened to be one of the differences between her and this dimension. Which is why the “Marx Fox” went out finding Doctor Chase. Perhaps Chase needed the “he gave his life so I could live” part later in his life to prevent him from going feral?…which is also why Marx helped Jackrabbit, because he lived with the other dimensional Flask in the past while making sure that Endtown got built and he learned from her that the place will only survive if Jackrabbit is the current leader so he promised her to make sure it happened no matter what. …but that would mean that she died later in that dimension… thinking in 5th dimensions makes my head hurt…
