Ray or Phil try to shoot the alligator before it can make a meal of Sassy. (Mind you, they're not doing it because of any second thoughts or regrets. They just don't want to have to do the clean up after the inevitable attack, and they want to be able to use the dog again, preferably while it's still in some sort of pristine condition.) Of course, now that it actually counts, they can't hit the broad side of a barn, but lucky for Bob, the shot gave him the chance to escape and he immediately runs to the aid of the poor little puppy. Now we just have to wait and see what Ray and Phil will do next. Will they take another shot at the alligator, or will they take a shot at Bob, getting rid of him once and for all because even they have grown tired of his constant waffling and whining?
As Bob dashes forward, Mark and Rusty break through the dense foliage (thank you,
Space Quest II) and immediately see the little dog in peril and the big hungry alligator who's feeling a little peckish and was unable to find some frogs to munch on ready to take a bite. Rusty, frozen by fear, can do nothing but yell out what he sees. Let's hope that Mark isn't in a similar state (and that an alligator can be subdued by being punched in the face by an intrepid outdoorsman) or this strip is about to become very, very sad.
