Not to me he seems to be acting exactly how he normally acts around Grape.

I find it amusing how so many people expect Rick's characters to be one-dimensional. Have you learned nothing?!

I think we have all wanted to kill someone at some point.
For me, it was many times.

Something tells me that prehaps not all 880+ cats and one dog are not from Babylon Gardens. Miss Auburn is there, so I'd think cats would be flocking from quite a distance to see her.

I wouldn't (EDIT: correction) think the bookstore would be IN Babylon Gardens. It is just one neighborhood.

Nonetheless, this doesn't look like it will be a pleasant situation.

I always love it when Grape shows her homicidal side. She is just adorable when she wants to hurt people.

Angry Grape = cute...No, skip that. Grape = always cute
Max is being especially cute, instead, since the start of this arc.

Yeah lets go with that.

Max? Cute? No, I think he's just being more reasonable than usual...it's actually kind of strange IMO how he hasn't grinned yet.

Max is always cute!

And this strip was funny xD Poor Grape. But hey, at least they get to see the Christmas Eve specials. That's fun, too!

And then Max becomes an unintended victim. ;_;

I was chucking at the idea of Max finishing that line while making eye contact with Grape.

Don't give the Grapenut shippers any ideas. It will only push them closer to Die For Our Ship.

Toooooo late. Heheheheh... *Wrings hands evilly*

The announcer then calls #189, Max notices that he has mistaken and the card was rightside-up, Grape wraps her scarf around her forehead and promptly proceeds to kill everyone.

<3 Grape

And she would start with Max due to his mistake.

Let the carnage begin! Psycho-killer Grape is just as cute! <3

Qu'est-ce que c'est?
__________
WHO'S NUMBER 46,853?

*sigh* hopes, hopes...

Y'know, those people really know how to market their wares. Or is it that they know how to profit on a situation?

I wonder what number Max is. Maybe it's much lower than Grape's, and she'll keep trying to steal his number, which will result in annoying him too much, and then he'll yell at her and leave.

That's gonna harm their relationship

I think they would be handing the cards out in numerical order. He's most likely #187 or #189

Don't you mean 880 or 882?

Don't ruin Grape's delusions. If you do , she will come after you first.

I would assume it's either one number ahead or below hers. and if he's ahead of her, i would assume he'd give her his number.

The only bad outcome i could see is since they are taking 10 cats at a time, i assume they are getting either group photos or just letting Miss Auburn see 10 cats at a time as they get their books. If Max happens to be 880, he will most likely have to let Grape see miss Auburn herself until his turn comes up or vice versa.

I do.

How do you know they're taking 10 cats a time?

Third panel: "Now serving numbers one-six-oh through one-seven-oh at the book barn!"

Although I thought it was just calling the cats to get in line.

10 kitties at a time.
That's a LOT of petting, lucky Miss Auburn!

Ten fanboys/-girls at once?

You've got to hand it to her, that's brave.

That's actually 11 guys
