Since I didn't finish writing this until after the midnight update, I'll post it here:

Not even close, if you count Members Vs. Mods 1&2.

Another prediction? Okay. I predict that Ralph and the K-9s will be confused long enough to let their guard down, but the guard wolves, especially Peter, will run blocker to keep Fido from attacking.

However...

If Jata were to make his suit explode at Fido like he did at Groncord, I don't think it would scare Fido at all at this point. Fido seems to be teetering on the edge of a Freak Out. To prove the point:
1. Fido has been in a high-stress relationship for years.
2. As a result of the relationship, he's had to keep secrets from colleagues and friends, which increases the stress even more.
3. Just recently, the being he loves has basically said that his love doesn't amount to much. Sabrina proved that here.
4. The "marriage is just words on paper" remark basically told him that Sabrina doesn't view devotion seriously. Before you cringe at that, think about this: Bailey basically said the same thing to King, and King's response was basically, "the marriage is a promise I'm making to you. Will you accept that promise?" (To Rick: GREAT writing there!) I don't think there's a cast member who didn't have it blatantly shown to them what the meaning and depth of King's proposal was.
5. Pretty much the only advice we know Fido received since "the empty white room" was Spo telling him to just go with what Fido wants to do.
6. As an officer of the law, Fido has had training (if HPU K-9's receive similar training to Real World humans) that tells him he needs to always be sober-minded, calm, and not to let his rampant emotions take over. He's already started to abandon that training, as shown in panel 1.
7. In panel 4, Fido has finally broken through his years of practice in keeping his secret. Now comes the tense moment for him to see if it will pay off. Out of the many possibilities, I see at least three:

A.) Sabrina and Jata turn their backs to Fido and follow through with the wedding as if nothing has happened. Fido's heart is crushed and he feints. He's carried to the hospital for minor physical injuries from severe stress, but his emotional state demands a leave of absence from the force. Broken, he hardens his heart, still having professional friendships, but nothing very close with anyone of the opposite gender.
B.) Fido's confession is met by Jata with a dismissive laugh, which sends Fido over the edge. Breaking through the wall of K-9s and wolves, Fido charges Jata, and goes completely
Image
on Jata.
C.) Despite his desires, Jata looks at Sabrina, leans over and whispers, "What would you prefer to do?" Sabrina responds, "I already told you I don't want to marry you. I think I would actually rather marry Fido, if I had the chance." To which Jata leans down and asks Keene, "How difficult would it be to marry him to her instead of me to her?" To which Keene replies, "Not difficult at all. All I need to do is change one name on the certificate and file it under 110.11b instead of 110.11a. Then Fido and Sabrina get married. And if you think about it, that would do more for Keene anyway. A cat & dog wedding instead of a cat & cat wedding would do more towards species equality, which is his endgame.

Now as for today's comic: I don't really get it. I get that King=Mario and Bailey=Peach, but what's the his/my idea thing? Is that a thing in Mario Bros? (because the only Mario games I've played were Super Smash Bros for the '64, the first couple levels of Super Mario 2, and Mario Bros for the original Nintendo.)(Never had the money to buy a lot of video games to keep up.)

There, it's sunk in now.

Also, Fox should wear this disguise the next time he sees Fido. It had me fooled, and aside from the scent issue he might be able to pull it off. (I also understand the his/my idea thing now. It just makes sense for Kari to say that. I couldn't figure out why Fox would talk that way.)

Bailey sure is looking buff today. Even moreso than--*bricked* (nah, I'm just messing with you guys XD)
Karishad always have the best ideas. And Fox tricked him very well there.
And I MUST say how much I love the background! The best background of the whole comic!

Didn't notice til I looked closely at their eye colors. :D
I think it suits Fox, looking like a fox that is. The fake muzzle marks were my favorite detail.

There's fear stalking the street
on this dark, evil, October, night.
When ghosts, witches and goblins entreat
their fun or your peril. It's quite a sight.

Blood pumps hard and hearts race
as the cubs stalk to come face to face
with their prey They're stalking sweet
goodness - one's even come as Pete!

Bailey's the prettiest looking princess
and King's the cutest looking mess.
They're on the hunt for cola barrels
on a night with no real quarrels.

Fox and Fox swap all their stuff
and one Fox ends up in the buff,
the other is happy to take the credit
and the other is happy to let it
on this night of stunning surprises
as everyone fun uses their disguises
and playful screams pierce the scene
as the cubs run free this Halloween.

Dissention's been here for five years square
reading, laughing and helping our talks.
That's dedication that is, right there,
Diss needs a hug, he's the loyalest of rocks.

Zach would be Peppy Hare. Ralph would be a good Fox McCloud

The true problem is: who's Toad? Because y'know, Falco is quite obvious.

Karishad is looking rather buff today. No, really.

Also, is this the first time we've seen King wearing pants... and we don't see the pants!

(actually, have any of the pets other than Keene worn pants? And then they're only hinted. Does Rick have a problem with pants?)
