Transcript:
Snoopy sits on the ground, leaning against the doghouse. He thinks, "Today is Father's Day..."<BR><BR> He lies on his back on top of the doghouse and thinks, "I wonder where my father is..."<BR><BR> He lies on his stomach, with his head hanging over the edge. He thinks,"That's the trouble with being a dog...They take you away from your family, and sell you to some stupid kid and you never see your Mom and Dad again!"<BR><BR> Sitting up, Snoopy frowns, thinking, "'But you get to live with a human family,' they say... Ha! Big deal! Some choice!"<BR><BR> In profile, Snoopy gets angrier, thinking, "You don't even get a choice! You go where they send you! Humans drive me crazy! Just thinking about it makes me so mad I could..."<BR><BR> "Suppertime!" Charlie Brown stands there, holding a full supper dish. Snoopy turns around.<BR><BR> CHOMP GULP! CHOMP GULP! CHOMP GULP! He eats.<BR><BR> BONK! The empty supper dish sails through the air and smacks Charlie Brown on the head as he walks away.<BR><BR> CHarlie Brown sits on the ground, dazed. He thinks, "Now, what brought THAT on?"<BR><BR>

His dog dad would be more likely to eat Snoopy’s food, rather than give him a dish of it. He should be more grateful for that round headed kid.

Ha, typical in Panel 7, when you’re SO beside yourself with rage, that you could just EXPLODE if the VERY CAUSE of your grief shows up, and sure enough-BAM! All of a sudden, there Charlie Brown is, Snoopy QUICKLY WOLFS DOWN his meal and with that THROWS his supper dish at “the round headed kid.”(something we all can relate to-really needing to get our overwhelming feelings of grief out of our systems), leaving CB, on the other hand, COMPLETELY nonplussed-“WHATEVER just got into Snoopy, prompting him to act like that?! I don’t understand that at all!”
