white caption: Does anyone remember a young lady named... Trash Lass?
*Trash Lass shuffling around refuse on her table*
pink caption: Garbology... detective work that focuses on refuse to solve cases, answer questions and unlock mysteries...
Panel 2
pink caption: ...looked down upon by the mainstream, possibly due to its origins stemming from private investigators and tabloid reporters, it is still nonetheless a valid form of detective work...
*Trash Lass has a picture of Bobo placed beside a wrinkled, stained ad for Crossroads Bar featuring Jenny Tellya and an old newspaper article with headline reading 'HERO OR HEROINE?' with a picture of Savage She-He*
Trash Lass: Well, that's pretty conclusive.
Panel 3
*Trash Lass arranging many old, yellowed covers of 'The Memphis Flyer' together that feature various shots of the Homies*
Trash Lass: And there's no doubt about it... you add about 15 years to him, that's DEFinitely Mr. Pegues... Cut this girl's hair, age her a bit-- and that's the one with the G.A.R.B.A.G.E. crew that kidnapped Bobo... I knew keeping that old lady's box of Flyers was a good idea...
Panel 4
*Trash Lass with a puzzled expression*
pink caption: It's just THIS I can't figure out...
Panel 5
*Memphis Flyer cover with picture of GoodBad Girl bloodied and hysterical*
cover reads: HOMIES NO MORE... MASSACRE AT MUD ISLAND MANSION
Junebug *leaping*: Ha! Gets 'em everytime! I'm no vampire, girl... just learned to like the taste of human flesh during the Depression... saved LOTS of money that way...
Panel 3
*Junebug upon GoodBad Girl*
Panel 4
*the sword through Junebug*
Panel 5
*Junebug collapsing*
Panel 6
*GoodBad Girl, looking upon scene with Junebug, Freaksmasher and Doubledare lying all bloody, she is screaming*
pink caption: I guess it's a mystery for another time... now to track down likely candidates for a crime syndicate headquarters.
Panel 2
*Trash Lass opens closet stacked with boxes, boxes are labelled WAREHOUSE 1, WAREHOUSE 2, DOWNTOWN (MISC), MAYOR's MANSION, etc*
pink caption: Heck, it's easy enough to spot meth labs from all the cold remedy containers in their garbage, it should be easy as pie to find an evil kidnapping criminal conglomerate! I'll just look for particularly evil garbage...
Panel 3
white caption: 2 hours later...
*Trash Lass sitting in floor, surrounded by garbage*
pink caption: This is going nowhere fast! I'd be better off hitting the streets-- I've got to do SOMEthing! I'll start at likely criminal locales and go from there...
Panel 4
*TL startled by a knock at the door*
Panel 5
*answers the door, mask down but body hidden behind door*
Greg: Find you? As your boss, you should know I have access to the personnel files!
Panel 2
Trash Lass: I was going to say 'How did you know I was 'Trash Lass'?
Greg: I wasn't sure... It gets complicated. What my brother knows, I know and vice versa. Plus how many hot blonde garbage themed girls do you think are OUT there? That doesn't matter anyway! That weird-- whatever it was with Josie Pickles earlier shattered her hold on me for the first time in years... but she's still got my bro, and he'll know I've come here...
Panel 3
Trash Lass: You are not making ONE ounce of sense... Josie's hold shattered what?
Panel 4
*Greg spots Memphis Flyer cover*
Greg: HERS! Hannah... GoodBad Girl... she's got Bobo... I'm pretty sure that's him in that get-up anyway...
Panel 5
Trash Lass: THAT'S all I need to know. Show me the way!
Greg: It isn't going to be easy... Hannah can "switch" you to her side... and she's got allies more than willing to serve her...
Trash Lass: What happened with Josie anyway? When Bobo got kidnapped, you're.... um... situation kind of got put on the back-burner... no offense.
Greg: None taken. Turns out mesmerized garbagemen don't necessarily make good knot-tiers. Yolanda? It's Greg. We gotta talk, quick.
Panel 3
Greg *on phone*: It's Hannah. She's turned. I'll put it to you like this... everything I've done in, oh, about the last few years has been under her spell. SHE got me that job. C'mon, do you REALLY think Doubledare would have been happy at a desk job? Around the BEND, I'm serious. Completely. We gotta get back to where you dropped that last snatch-n-grab off. Okay...
