Les vents to his “work wife” Linda about how another student tried to pass off a purchased paper as his own work. I wonder if that student’s offense was dealt with as lightly as was Maddie’s? “Everyone deserves a second chance, Cory…so here’s what I’m going to do. Your dad owns a pizza parlor…so why don’t you make a pizza in the shape of a whale?”

Self In-crib-inating
Maddie is shocked, shocked, to learn of the existence of plagarism checking sites. It gets worse: she’s paid good money for a plagiarized plagiarism! In the interest of full disclosure: in spite of the implausibility of the twice-“cribbed” paper (and anyway, what difference would it make?)…Maddie’s Moe Howard-like reaction made me smile.
Shanks for Nothin'
“Totally shanked that paper“? I searched the web really hard to find the verb “shank” used in this context, but the only definitions I found involved prison stabbings, golf, and football. In any event, Maddie logs on to “plagarizepal.com” to download a readymade paper.
Sunday Funday
Last day to comment on Friday’s post for a chance to win your own copy of Lisa’s Story!
You know what? I like today’s strip! I like it because in recreating a couple Act I scenes, TB has actually recalled the cartoony style of that period. Funky, Les and Crazy Harry, Holly and Cindy are their old 70s and 80s selves again. The punchlines are nothing to write home about, but I’ll settle for gentle humor over hamfisted melodrama any day of the week.

If he “gets” the part about movie, TV and theater rights, what’s not to get about electronic media? If you think that we, the readers are in for a rough week, query how Ann Apple must feel, having to entertain Les’ doucheball questions. I, for one, would love to see Lisa’s Story: The Video Game…in 3-D!
