Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for December 22, 2014
Transcript:
Narrator: In a hospital bed clinging to life's adjustable mattress... Cobra is visited by the ghost of Christmas past... Cobra Carson: Gaaah! Go 'way spirit! TNT: Nuh uh. No Cobra, not 'til you dealt with how you treat Rip Haywire... Spirit, I've learned something from that vision! I looked really good in that dress. TNT: I bet the tooth fairy doesn't have to put up with this.

So, is Cobra going through the whole “Christmas Carol” bit?
Sure seems like it to me.

Agreed. And it may take a very mean Ghost of Christmas Future to save her. Do you think the third ghost will be Breezy, Rip’s mom, or Goldie(Rip’s ex-fiancé)? I’m no detective, but a twist may be coming at the end of all of this.

TNT as a fairy? What are you implying, Dan?Happy Solstice to all haywire hooligans and Ripsters! Plus a happy whatever-holiday-you-observe this season,Vacation calls, so I’ll see you on the far side of next week.

I am loving where this storyline is going, Dan! Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah and Happy New Year to you and my fellow readers! I’d include Kwanzaa but not even Kwanzaabot knows what that is…

I am going to bet that since TNT was the past then Breezy is going to be the present and and the expectant bundle of joy will be the future.

Getting Cobra to change? You would have better luck pulling teeth.But, I guess this is a good way to stall for time. Rodeo’s still KA-Hopping to it, isn’t he?

And when the Ghost of Christmas Present comes, she’ll learn that she looks good in that hospital gown, too.

OMG I can’t believe we didn’t suspect something like this. We’re all “Nooo! You can’t take Cobra away!”Nice one Dan.

Let’s see… Christmas Past – TNT, so I’m thinking……Christmas Present – BreezyChristmas Future – RJ (more grown-up)

Well…, it’s safe to say no tigers were killed.
