Yesterday's nondescript new-run confirms my hunch that we're in for Elly battling her family's flu while trying not to get sick herself. It's probably going to be fairly benign expect for Elly's odd belief that she's a failure because she didn't contain the outbreak instead of a success for making it through a siege with flying colors.

Oops. It looks as if Lynn has decided to replace her old arc with a new one.

Panel 1: We start off with yet another exterior shot of the Pattermanse. RevElly is on the phone telling Marian that both MikeClone and NeoLizic have the flu.

Panel 2: She goes on to say that MikeClone has a fever and NeoLizic has problems keeping food down. She notes that it all seemed to happen so fast. First one kid was sick, then the other.

Panel 3: She again tempts fate by starting to say she's feeling great.

Panel 4: Which, of course, means that her stomach makes a BRBBELBL noise. Is this karmic retribution for referring to herself in the third person
because she can't bring herself to call herself a mother or housewife? Who can say?

Panel 5: An obviously-ill RevElly tells Marian that she'll call her later. The reason: she's going to be violently ill.

Summary: It's Great-Grandma Marian to the rescue, I think. Either that or RetJohn will be a big jerk and boast about how he could have gotten her a flu shot too.
