Phil: Anybody want to play a game?
Val: REALLY?
Phil: Sure! Monopoly? Scrabble? Hearts?
Val: I'm pretty competitive...
Phil: Well, bring it ON.
Holly: He has no idea what he's saying.
Alix: I hate to see a grown man cry...
That reminds me of my mom. When we were kids and would play games she would say "During the game you are not my children, we are competitors and the goal is to WIN!
@bigbeard61, probably a box of cookies (dessert) or the like.
And Phil should know better. Jan had a storyline where Val and Phil went to a Jazz weekend, but the hotel lost their reservation, so they crashed Joan and Wally’s weekend at the beach (Grandma had all the kids). Phil should have remembered how uber competative Val was back then!
What they don’t know is that Phil is a champion Monopoly player! He could wipe out all the ladies in no time! Or, maybe he’ll be “nice” and let one of them win!! If he wants Val affections he’ll let her, or one the girls, win.

What’s with the displaying of the egg tooth in the first and second panels? Is that some sort of territorial display?

Game on! Phil is awesome. I love playing games, but my husband doesn’t so I have to find online games or make my kids play with me.
