Transcript:
Cactus: McLuvyah, how'd you bust outta my hoosegow? Rip: My wife busted him... wait! Why were you in jail? Cactus: Folks were complaining about him marryin' them without a license. McLuvyah: Licenses are for pets, sheriff! The heart needs no permission! Rip: So then I'm off the hoo - I mean, Cobra and I were never legally married? McLuvyah: How would you define "legally"? Please don't hit me! Scottish blood is terrible for beards! Cactus: You'll have to yell. He's skipping down the road like a schoolgirl polecat.

Well . . . that is disappointing.
Especially when a simliar plot twist had been used in The Flintstones and Gilligan’s Island.

Is Rip getting younger with each story arc? Or is it just that he’s been acting like a baby for the last three weeks?

Come on, Rip – did you or did you not say “I do”? Not “legally” married, yes. Off the hook? Not so much. (c:

I hope he’s ready to tell RJ that he (once again!) does not have a mommy anymore.
Chrisdiaz801 about 11 years ago
Oh, yeah, he did go to Jared. Cobra won’t let Rip forget that, if she takes him back.

But isn’t R.J. an emancipated adult or something? Even if not, I doubt this “marriage” is over just yet! :-)

The strip Wikipedia page says Mr. Thompson lives in North Carolina. The Gophers beat the Tar Heels the last time they played, albeit almost 2½ yrs ago.@Dan Thompson: Is the Gophers T shirt because you lost a bet on that game? because Mr. Schulz was from MN? or did you attend the U of MN?

Hopefully a swerve, else it’s barely a step up from “then I woke up and it was all a dream” endings.
