Mark, back at the office with his proof, continues to meet resistance from Sarah, the woman previously known as the President of the Williams Chemical Company (though I suppose she still is. I just don't have to type that out anymore.), even though it's stacking up to look like her brother Joey, previously known at the Vice President of the Williams Chemical Company, is up to no good. (I don't know about you, but I now have the urge to refer to them as Sister Sarah and Pal Joey.) As Sarah tries to get rid of Mark, telling him that she'll talk to Joey and then get back to him, Mark offers to wait in the office. It could be a long wait, Mark. You don't know if Joey is on a business trip, on vacation, in meetings all day, or has a dentist appointment where he's going to have a root canal and then go home to try and sleep it off. For all we know, that's exactly how the invisible man from the last company waiting room Mark was in became invisible. It's better not to take the chance. Besides, I don't trust that bird in panel two, and we just can't be sure that the Williams' aren't in cahoots with the Avians and just looking for a chance to trap you.
Having no other choice, Mark finally gives in to Sarah's pleas for him to leave and makes a dinner date with her and her brother. This should be fun. I only hope that Sarah doesn't think that Mr. Trail is unattached or this is just going to get
embarrassing and Cherry is certainly not going to be happy about it,
misunderstanding or not. In fact, Mark, why don't you bring Doc and Cherry along, just for fun. But just one word of caution: sure, that sinister bird from the previous strip seems to have turned into a mother bird caring for her young, but I'd still consider taking along a food taster, or at least wait for the others to dig in before you take that first bite. After all, the Avians may or may not be leaving you alone, but are you willing to take the chance that Sarah or Joey won't try to silence you? (Kind of gives Death By Chocolate new meaning, doesn't it?) At least the Jack
Elrod Ball seems to be watching your back, if only for the moment.
