I know they haven’t a gun because Crystal would be looking up the business end long before this. I like how this girl puts her foot down, and she doesn’t have the power of zapping or a zapper person there to back her up.
Shaky just realised that the weird greenish haired girl might’ve been forced to home quarantine herself in this Coronavirus flu season! He’s taking no chances!
Lets hope Crystal smells a rat in this whole business, and, call her BFF grandfather. Of course calls to Dick’s cell are being forwarded to his “wrist wizard” (or, what ever term the squad is using, I’m sure Diet Smith lawyers have already updated the patent on the original wrist radio so many times, the patent office probably has a special desk just to deal with that. Getting back to Dick, in the emergency surgery waiting room, he hears from Crystal, who describes Shaky v2 (and, his nice sounding companion,) and, has the squad go hunt them down while telling Pat to have all the uniforms to be on the lookout for them.
So Shaky went out for some stronger pain medicine and came back with a cigar. Who’s his doctor – Dr. Fidel Castro? Dr. Winston Churchill? Dr. Freud? Oh wait. ..

I’ve never had pink eye, but I have had eye irritation at times, and I’m betting that in real life, the fumes from silver polish would be making her condition worse. I wonder if this thing with the buckles is important to the plot, or just incidental.

Good morning™, all!
He can’t smoke and she’s contagious! At least now that he’s leaving, she’ll be able to report him to the cops.

Is Shaky blowing the joint because of the no smoking rule or because of Crystal’s pink eye?

Considering Crystal’s lineage. I’m not surprised that she doesn’t take any crap from Shaky!

At last! We’ve spent more time at Crystal’s “safe house” than we did on the actual incident at Tess’ agency.

Oh she got sent home from school alright, but not for pink eye. It was for driving every one around her nuts.

Hats off to Joe for that amazing first panel. Shaky has a very difficult face to get right, and he managed to make him look pretty handsome.

If Shaky was clear minded, he would have been on a interstate highway out of town.

She’s applying the “Red Chief” method of ridding herself of unwanted houseguests. Look up “The Ransom of Red Chief” by O. Henry for further details.

And Crystal scoooooores! She has, deliberately or not, managed to break Shaky. And rather than fight, he choses flight!
Bon voyage, Edison and Shaky!
Now what, Crystal Pink-Eye? (Do you really even have pink eye, or did you just make that up on the spur of the moment?)
