I finally read Wikipedia's summary of the movie i had carefully avoided {having been less than thrilled by the book of the same name}, yesterday.
I now understand the references in this week's comics.

I say, Shelly makes quite the British naval occifer, does she not? And Dinky Dietzel FTW!!!
You know that light at the end of the tunnel?

This wasn't Phix's dream, it was Monica's.

And Nudge has outsmarted herself, by adopting a fictitious persona.
Ships' doctors deal with life-and-death situations. They must be firm and be decisive. Therefore, they may never waffle.
She'll just have to make do with hardtack. Crumble it up on some good honest Naval salt pork, and it'll be just like pancakes and bacon... except different.

Only from the Wikipedia synopsis. Nudge was playing the captain of the Acheron, who was pretending (fictitiously) to be the Acheron's doctor to escape capture.AnotherFairportfan wrote:Are you familiar with the film?Dave wrote:And Nudge has outsmarted herself, by adopting a fictitious persona.

I read your post, and immediately my mind went to the Cosby Show episode where Cliff is having a nightmare, which is explained, within the nightmare, as being because he ate something that disagreed with him. Of course, that explanation was being offered by a very large, talking submarine sandwich... To which Cliff replied in the negative... See, we're disagreeing right now, said the sub...AnotherFairportfan wrote:Phix is having weird dreams because she ate someone who disagreed with her.eee wrote:And still no explanation for the insanity.

Phix needs to seek a cure at the Argument Clinic. Or, possibly, just take bicarbonate (but then she might rumba, as Curly Howard once said...)lake_wrangler wrote:To which Cliff replied in the negative... See, we're disagreeing right now, said the sub...
Re: Plunder Plunder Plunder 2016-04-08
except she is still asleep??? or only a figment of Monica's dream??? (Phix is no longer there..) or even.... A very good 'Glamour creation' by one of them, making the 'pop a ball' look like various guns!!Dave wrote:Phix needs to seek a cure at the Argument Clinic.

Imagination gone wild in the Library, the only question remaining; was Phix caught up in the game, or did they just imagine how she would react if a naval battle broke out in the Library.illiad wrote:except she is still asleep??? or only a figment of Monica's dream???
