Deciding that he doesn't really want to die, and that if he doesn't actually do something, he will, Bob, who thinks he has nothing left to lose but his life, leaps towards a nearby tree, grabs hold of a convenient branch, and swings forward, kicking Ray and Phil (who apparently showed up sometime between these strips) in the face. (Oh, I really hope that he didn't step in anything today, or that he at least had time to clean off his boots if he did.) Fortunately, Bob's lightning attack is all Mark needs to begin his own attack, deciding to take all of his frustrations out on Ray while Bob concentrates on Phil (who really hasn't done much this entire story). Looks like the attempted murder of Sassy was just too much for Bob and he's decided to turn his back on Ray and Phil for good. What boggles my mind is that Ray seems confused by the fact that Bob is attacking him. (Dude, you just told him you were going to cut him out of the deal and probably kill him. Why wouldn't he attack you?) The good thing about this strip, though, is that it shows us that both Mark and Bob seem to be in relatively good physical condition as they're able to carry on a conversation while fighting their foes without so much as an indication of labored breath or gasp for air. (Looks like someone took the President's Physical Fitness Challenge seriously. Next up: the dreaded pull ups. Good luck guys! I know you can do it!)
Their foes vanquished, Mark grabs Ray's gun and while he has no intention of firing it, it does make him look awfully impressive and is a good deterrent for any further attacks. The gun, however, seems to be beside itself and can't believe that Ray would have ever thought of firing it at an innocent child or his puppy. Now that the fighting is over, though, Bob decides that it's finally time to get this whole poaching thing off of his chest, which can only mean that it's time for a recap. (Oh goody. I can hardly wait. How many strips is this one going to take?)
