Doing some damage control, Mr. Pops attempts to steer Tracy's suspicions away by pointing out that since clowns are created for the sole purpose of making people laugh, he couldn't possibly be in any way responsible for what happened to poor Louise or for any of those notes that are now being investigated in the lab. (Of course, had Tracy wanted the investigation to go well, he should have probably worn gloves while he examined them instead of getting his prints all over them. Hope you have an alibi there, Dick.) Tracy doesn't seem to be buying much of the clown's story (I still think it's the eyes) and proceeds with his questions, pointing out that the murderer is still on the loose and that they need to find out who it is and quick (otherwise Tracy could be trapped at the circus forever) and in order to do that, he's decided to take a few precautions. A few armed precautions.
Sure Dick, police security is all well and fine, so long as said security is able to handle their guns, but that security guard in panel one is really giving me doubts as to his ability to hit anything unless he's aiming for someone's kneecaps (and really it looks more like he's about to drop the gun and shoot himself in the foot than anything else). Satisfied with the security, or at least as satisfied as he can be with security that's been cobbled together while the rest of the force continues to track down the nefarious Waldo, Tracy turns back to Ringo and demands to know about the performers at the circus. This should be fun, or really, really tedious and might mean that the posts for the strip will disappear for a while. I can't wait to find out which.
