Exterminator: Looks like the treatment worked, sir. Robbie's giving me the all-clear! If he says the bugs are gone, they almost certainly are! Mike: Almost? Exterminator: Well, dogs aren't infallible. Time will tell if we got 'em all. Hope you're not expecting company. Dogs: Yeah, tough ethical call! Mike: And thanks for that.
The trip to find America was in the summer of 72, when Mark and Mike picked up Joanie on Mark’s motorcycle on Sunday Sept. 10th color strip. The french dope sniffing dog episode took place the next summer on June 20th, 1973 while Zonk and Mike were driving to the west coast in Mike’s VW. A feeble attempt to draw a cat was made in Sunday’s color strip of June 5th, 1977. It was a brown sleeping cat in Lacey’s boudoir. It was so unconvincing that GBT probably decided never to try it again!!!
The dog’s name was Claude, making him french thus enabling him to use Zola’s admonishment to the staff officers of the French Army in ”L’Affaire Dreyfus”. Trudeau always had a lot of wit when it comes to use old french quotes.
