Because this strip has not shown the slightest inclination to introduce any supernatural element at all previously. If a UFO a la “Life of Bryan” had come along and snatched Mrs Biscuits up, that would have been as much of a denouement as this, only Monty python was being farcical from the start. Introduction of a totally new element as the plot denouement is not good storytelling technique, and I say that as a writer myself.
