The investigation continues, and now things are getting serious. The performers have refused to perform, expressing their concern and outright fear of meeting the same fate as Louise. Now, Tracy might not think that's such a bad idea, but only because he's not much of a circus person and his livelihood doesn't come from a circus. Still, he finds his resolve to solve the case strengthening (but possibly only because if there is no circus, that might mean that some of the circus people might move in next door, and he already has a mad scientist, so he doesn't really need anyone else to make his life more interesting). Then, just after making a pun (or at least I think it's a pun because it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense), a mysterious note arrives for Ringo, and just when things are getting good, the strip ends, leaving us all to ponder just what that note could be. An invitation to a birthday party? A notice that Ringo's subscription to Modern Circus is about to expire? The $2.00 rebate from buying sixty cases of clown makeup? A note from the mother of one of the performers, excusing Wendell from capering about because he has a tummy ache? We may never know.
