Nobody caught it… Whoa you cannot see Fred too? I was wondering the same thing… what the hell these guys are talking about… blood, holy, Fred ….

I have a theory in my mind that it will be a discussion between Thistle and the guys regarding Fred’s death and she’ll remember someone she knew with a blue car that had an unexplained, or poorly explained accident and THAT will be what breaks the Fred hit and run.

It’s interesting that in this strip, Yehuda tells Joe “don’t only focus on bike sales,” while several weeks ago Yehuda told Thistle that he didn’t sell her any helmets because she “didn’t ask for any.” Yehuda could help the Kickstand’s balance sheet if he sold the accessories along with the bikes!

Why can’t we drop the “Thistle and Yehuda hook up” angle? She’s married and all that, and her husband is just as likely to be the grail as he is the killer at this point. Mostly he exists off stage for the sake of thistle having dialogue with someone other than Fizz.

Of course Fred knows about Thistle; she’s been in the shop.

Yehuda is NOT homeless; Joe just pokes fun at him for (from his perspective) LOOKING LIKE he’s homeless. Aside from Joe’s barbs, there has NEVER been any reference to Yehuda being homeless, plus we HAVE seen his home on a few occasions. From the small glimpses we’ve seen, it’s still a rather large question mark as to exactly what KIND of home Yehuda lives in (apartment or full house), but he clearly has a fixed address.

Interesting that Fred knows about Thistle. Kind of spooky. Then again, Fred is a spook. I’m interested to see where this goes.

Do Joe and Yehuda always have pencils in their shirt pockets? I’ve never noticed before.

Or is that some indication that they’ve been thinking hard?

Fred’s deterioration reminds me of ‘Jack’ in An American Werewolf in London. Each time we saw him, he looked a little more worse for wear.

you guys are all messed up, I don’t think that we have yet met the blue car driver, but I do think Fred is both fading out and nearing closure. In fact, it seems that the more he remembers about his accident, the the more banged up and closer to death his spectre appears. We may gain closure soon, I think Thistle may be somehow involved with finding the killer.

My “I’m Sticking To It” theory about the blue car driver:

It’s the grail. The identity of both will be revealed the same day or never.
