So now it’s PlAnnabella Mafiosa;
laying out their afternoon.
To get away on their own
would need a ticket to the moon(!)
She’s going for the romantic;
offering up a cruise;
but, before that, there’s shopping…
How can our dear Near lose?
To buy someone’s useless crab
is every tourists dream.
(And, if she gets something good?
She’ll be the cat that got the cream.)
Oooh, boat ride! Certainly a great addition to a date! But does that mean Annabella will be on there with them or will she stay on shore? This is a date after all, not a bunch of friends/family hanging out.
Citizen Snips!
She’s already got a souvenir. His name is Kai.
“This is my boyfriend. Can I keep him?”
She also has a mug coming that has a matched twin in Hybrid City.
The champion of crab wrestling looks a bit like Mr. Krabs. Near’s a fan of SpongeBob Squarepants?
Anna makes up for her intrusions with an offer Kai and Near won’t want to refuse. A boat tour sounds like a great addition to their date, as long as no one follows overboard (except maybe Anna if she’s being to nosy again). Hopefully Near can swim, though given that she lives in Australia, swimming may be one of the more practical ways for her to cool off.
I wonder what souvenirs Enzo has besides sea shells fresh from the sea shore… Maybe pictures of the locale, handmade jewelry from local craftsmen, or some handmade pottery? I wonder how often Enzo has to fight with crabs when he collects shells, he probably gets his fingers pinched and crushed a lot. Good thing he hasn’t had to fight with Mr. Krabs, he’s a rather fierce crustacean. I see Near is literal minded, the crab wrestler is a cute and funny thought!
*Enzo and the crab are wrestling for the shell…*
“Damn it, will you let go already? I’m dropping my American $20 note in my pocket….”
*Mr Crabs instantly recoils and looks excited, claws clamping open & shut excitedly…*
“Money? MONEY!”
*Enzo takes the shell and runs off *
“Yeah, MY MONEY!!”
*Mr Crabs grumbles at himself….*
“Neptune’s beard, that’s the 5th time he’s gotten me with that trick this month……. AND IT’S ONLY THE 4TH DAY OF THIS MONTH!!!”
So Emilio is starting out with an old fishing boat and said two days ago that “it needs a lot of work.” I hope this is a little bit nicer than going out on an old trawler. Near is gonna think Kai’s family is a bunch of flakes.
Let’s hope the boat is at least seaworthy even though “there’s still quite a bit of work left”.
Another thing to keep in mind; Annabella said this is “the very first” scenic boat ride. Being the very first tour, there may be a shortage of -other- passengers. Has Annabella considered this and is using “the very first” tour, on a possibly unreliable boat, as a plan to strand Kai & Near for a conveniently quiet, and romantic, evening out in the middle of the bay? Will Annabella be the stewardess on the tour, so she can keep an eye on the couple? 🙂 What other uh.. ‘schemes’ might she have planned for the tour?
Panel 5: Maybe add a comma to “first”?
Also, will we ever see a crab hybrid, so much as in passing?
A leisurely gondola right sounds perfect for our lovely couple. Here’s hoping it’s without further interference or distraction.
Authentic souvenirs are a must, and I like where Near’s mind went when she heard crab wrestling. Her thought bubble gave me a much needed laugh.
“Beach jousting, crab wrestling; what other activities do these people engage in on their beach?”
His new nickname is nine and a half fingers.
Now I want to see that wrestling match.
Also, there are actually quite a few bands that are technically just one person, plus whatever occasional guests they happen to recruit for a particular project.
OLIOLIOLIOOOO!!!!
CRAB BATTLE!
