    Tip seems to still be missing his explosive collar.

      People have been commenting on that little fact for the past three days. He had it on when they awakened him, but not since the “bing” in Friday’s strip.

        At this point I am willing to believe he mojo’ed his way out of it because it didn’t match any of his nightgowns.

          He had it on in the nightgown scene with coffee. Maybe it was the shock of seeing the mustard-and-teal sweater that got his mojo going to get out of the collar. The first image after the Bing had heavy shadowing that hid whether the collar was present, but the next image has Tip reacting to the color combination.

    Funny thing, I recently learned that in england they call sweaters “jumpers” for some reason, but isn’t this set in america? Also has TV Tropes classified the only moves when you’re not looking thing as it’s own trope yet? Or are they still referring to it as a weeping angels reference?

      Or an SCP 173 reference. The closest trope currently is “creepy changing painting”, as far as I know.

        Just looked it up, it’s called “Can’t Move While Being Watched”, but it’s listed as one of the weeping angels tropes instead of put righty in it’s description.

      Maybe Mr. Ask is British.

        A mad scientist with a British accent? Whoever heard of such a thing?

        Apparently, they call them that in Australia too (although I’m not sure how often Australians need to call them anything). An Australian mad scientist would have a bit more novelty value, but he’d probably have called someone “mate” by now.

      What you’re probably looking for is “Offscreen Teleportation”

      My first thought is “a watched pot never boils”, but I don’t know if that’s actually a trope.

      & in Saskatchewan they call hoodies, bunnyhugs.

    Covert skills and a terrible sense of color? Those shouldn’t be mutually exclusive. Tip is right, that is a crisis. Only madness can explain that.

    In actuality, the knitter is not hiding. The drone just flew over him while everyone was distracted by the conversation.

      Or he just walked up to and around it.

    Oh great, he’s a Weeping Angel now.

    Someone better at it than me should be filking “Brain Damage” right now.
