But just last week, we were shown that it is Sprocket who has the skills to prepare phony documents, etc. We were shown that Silver’s main job is to be the glib-tongued presenter, interacting with the mark.
Sprocket has already helped out with the scam. Granted, she shouldn’t interact with the mark, but she should keep helping out behind the scenes, including picking up whatever they’re about to go get (unless Domain is worried about her being spotted in public and identified?).
It is my opinion that Sprocket has a skill set that may be necessary to make this scheme work. By dismissing her, Domain is letting lose a possible psychiatric time bomb since Silver sees her as a mother,sister best friend partner in crime and, and who knows what else. If she just leaves,trouble will be close at hand.
Tropical storm Harvey has now moved due east to hit Beaumont where the largest petroleum processing plant in the country is located. It was shut down, however it released toxic gas to do so. From 500 down to 200 water obstructions on the streets today. Still have evacuees coming in to 230 FEMA shelters. Its not over quiet yet.
Also, in an earlier strip, Public Domain is planning to set up Silver as the “fall guy”, so Sprocket will fall as well… And Public Domain walks away…< sarcasm
I’m betting that Sprocket will sabotage the recording somehow…
I think everyone is overlooking that Public Domain may be afraid that Sprocket could be recognized. Silver and Sprocket are both wanted fugitives. PD had Silver alter his appearance, but the barefoot Sprocket may be recognized.

Think I might have had an epiphany …
Someone here noted a resemblance between “Sawtooth” and “Jaws,” from the Roger Moore “Bond” films.
Later, I’d suggested that “Sawtooth” might be related to Blackjack, based mostly on proximity.
But what if “Sawtooth” …
… is actually related to “Jaws”?
What if this year’s crossover story will team Dick Tracy with James Bond~?!!Night-Gaunt49[Bozo is Boffo] almost 7 years ago
Some people think, wrongly, that similar characters must be related. Just not very imaginative.

Looks like Public Domain already knew Silver’s future plans

Hold on! If Sprocket wasn’t in Public Domain’s plans, why did he rescue her? He could have simply rescued Silver.

Uh-oh. How dumb can Public Domain be?!
Deliberately trying to break up the long-standing “brother-sister” team in the middle of the scam? And spiting Sprocket Nitrate in front of Silver?!
Maybe, just maybe, Silver was in on Public’s Sprocketless plan; but even if so, he can’t afford to lose her support at this point!
Public just sank his scheme. Maybe forfeited his life, too. I’ve said repeatedly that Sprocket is the truly dangerous Nitrate….
