    Props to Satan for at least recognising that they’ve treated Phoebe bad.
    But Tracee is 100% correct about Phoebe being a much much better person. Also, glad to know she’s not so high and mighty that she won’t accept slumming it with them.

    Of course, Puck might have something to say about that… but Puck won’t be able to overcome Phoebe’s begging… especially since Phoebe technically owns the house.

    There’s the Tracee that we know and barely tolerate.

    • ElectricGecko

      And how!

    • Peya Luna

      i´m already looking forward to her interacting with daphne – either they´ll be at each others throat, or form an unholy alliance that´ll teach satan how to become evil again

      • Frank H.

        I get the feeling that they’d broadly leave each other alone. Their interests don’t really coinside or conflict. I’d expect some hissing, but no real issues

  • Frank

    He seems so excited.

    It’s a good thing for them that it’s not Puck’s house. ’cause she may not actually be better than them. She just aspires.

    Tracee being around Miranda again could be considered as some free babysitting. And some fun shenanagins.

  • Seregiel

    Awwww. Guess who just found a new job as perma babysitters?

  • Marcus

    Do with what you have and not with what you don’t have. I mean given Phoebe’s nature it seems likely that she will allow her father and Tracee to crash into their lives for a while.

    It is not likely of Phoebe to say no all of the sudden, right ?

  • GUnitG7

    I’m getting used to the fact that I can see Satan’s hands. I’m kinda hoping that slowly his shadowy veil gets removed as he lives with Puck & Phoebe.

  • Who’s the guy checking out Tracee?

  • Nat Whitney

    I love Tracee’s expression in the last panel! It’s perfect for her line

  • Ichneumon

    I like how Tracee is more cunning and exploitative than Satan himself. You go girl.

    • ElectricGecko

      Well, he’s lost his mojo. He’s not in peak form. She now outranks him.

    • Ichneumon

      Come to think of it, maybe this story arc could end with Tracee taking the helm of the EvilCorp which recently booted Satan, as she’s better suited for the job.

  • bergerjacques

    I’m starting to see things from the trio of evil servant’s perspective. If Satan can’t see the diabolical angles of familial exploitation, he really has lost his edge. Tracee’s good, but she shouldn’t be able to out-evil Satan.
    He’s not even in Heather’s league right now.

    We all saw this coming, let the hilarity begin.

    Seeing that Airwolf shirt reminds me of the time I saw the Lady in flight as a teenager. I was swimming at the family cottage one summer day when I heard a helicopter over the trees. That was not a big deal; helicopters flew between CFB Trenton and CFB Ottawa all the time, pretty much over our place. Then, while treaded water, I saw a black and white Bell 222 come over the trees towards me at a pretty slow speed. I was thinking, “That looks like Airwolf, but that is down in California, not up here in Ontario.” A few seconds later the Santini Air Jet Ranger emerged above the trees with a big camera mount slung under the nose, flying in formation behind The Lady close enough to make ATC flip out under any other circumstances. They flew over the lake and kept going. It turns out they were going to an air show out at an Ottawa airport. They were filming during that pass and the shot of our wooden cottage on the point on a narrow lake was used in the show in one of the accelerated sequences; I was the guy out front of the cottage doing the backstroke at 70 knots.

      Just read that the helicopter that played Airwolf eventually crashed in Germany after being repurposed and killed all people on board. Kinda puts a damper on it all. Curse you, Wikipedia, for telling me these things!

  • rewinn

    Panel 3 Guy looks like he’s not checking Tracee out; he’s thinking, “Dang, there’s a line at the clothing donation station. And I want that Airwolf shirt!”

    • ElectricGecko

      Far more accurate. To my mind, it’s the look of a barely conscious man shambling across a parking lot.

  • Shawn

    I honestly don’t remember them kicking her out. I assume that was a long time ago.

  • demarion

    Airwolf, eh? Perhaps foreshadowing Satan and Tracee’s return to the mansion? As in, they bust the roof open, saying “We’re here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and we’re all out of bubblegum!”

  • Just Sumguy

    Tracee’s a dangerous combo of cybernetic petro-chemical polymer plastic augmented thot and upwardly economically mobile Celtic-Canadian dragon woman. This may become an interesting twist in the story and challenge for the characters affected.

  • ChrisH

    Phoebe is incredibly nice so S&T are incredibly lucky. 🙂
