Okay, even I have to admit that I’m having a little bit of fun at both Dandy’s and you gracious reader’s expense. But I promise I’m not dragging out Dandy’s reveal to Mistake JUST for sadistic giggles. I really do think it’s important to put Dandy through the emotional wringer a bit before the story moves on to what happens next.
Also, I am well aware that Dandy contradicts himself from panel 2 to panel 3, and it’s intentional. Anyone who’s worked themselves up into a panic like this IMAGINING how someone they care about is going to react to something like this is all to familiar with the astounding leaps in logic one must make in order to maintain that level of stress.
