The Wallet family all stand up in unison in the congregation. Gus Alley ’Li’l Skeezix’ Wallet (age 19) speaks, “In honor of my grandfather Allison ‘Skeezix’ Wallet’s 91st birthday on Feb. 14th, the Wallet family announces we have liquidated Gasoline Alley Garage and Corky’s Diner. With those funds and the remaining money from the sale of Wicker & Wallet Co., we are giving a gift of cash to the wonderful members of this church. Please enjoy it with our thanks. After the conclusion of the service, we are all moving to the new Walt Wallet Wing of the Old Comic Strip Characters Home to live out the remainder of our days. I now turn the strip over to the new main characters, Joe Pye and his boys! Thank you very much!”
Giving Scancarelli some slack, here, it might be that Arlo just had the keyboard console of the organ, not the wall of pipes. But that’s overthinking this strip.

It’s not “their” money since they stole it from someone else.

Commonplace situations…??

Despite a few inconsistencies, this storyline is awesome! This turn of events will make this church popular.

This doesn’t look like the church the Wallets attend.

This is ridiculous. It’s a stupid story about people I couldn’t care less about. Aren’t there enough Wallets around for a good story!?!
