He's not always wrong, either. This is also the same guy who blew up Congress on national television and who actually pulled off Frans Rayner's f*ck-stupid plan, "By defeating the President, I will BECOME the President."

I wonder why no one brought up the Constitution preventing him from becoming president since as a member of a alternate universe he is a foreigner.

I don't think there was anyone left to debate the issue after he blew up Congress.

I'm now waiting for the page of a bunch of Supreme Court Judges standing at the pyramid shouting, "you can't be president!"

Then there's a balloon from the pyramid going, "lol Who cares, I got my huge, kick ass pyramid."

"Ok! We just wanted to be sure you knew!"

Am I alone in thinking that this feels like a big deception? There seems like a lot of stuff we are being told, but not shown.

Clearly, there is no trap here!

You know, I've said it before, but all this business with Old sets up Patrick with the perfect way to "die" and yet still live out a life away from all the drama. It's such a classic trope that I halfway expect it to be subverted somehow, but all its elements have thus far been played perfectly straight.

I'm trying to figure out if Dan just double-crossed his son(s) here, or if he genuinely didn't know what was about to happen.

They had to know what was going to happen. Martin didn't tie himself up.

I suppose the question then becomes, assuming Dan did just double-cross his son, what exactly did he just lead him into, if it wasn't that timed gauntlet he mentioned before?

Nothing good, one assumes. Maybe Dracula offered to return Gordito if they led Doc into this trap?

Whatever it is, this is definitely an effect of the curse. The McNinjas visibly do not want to be doing this, which is what I was getting at a while back when I said the best magic is subtle. They haven't turned against him, but events have conspired in such a fashion as to make Doc's very family betray him.

The universe continues to spite Patrick McNinja.

All this over the mistake one kid made.

Man ghost wizards are kinda dicks aren't they?

Well, ghost wizards and magical space unicorns. Since the ghost wizards are all under Dracula's control, we have to chalk part of the responsibility up to him as well.

Maybe defeating Dracula will somehow break the curse and then we'll get to see Doc get his mojo back.

Yep. it's an effect of the curse. Rad's legion of doom declaring their intent to kill Patrick was the culmination of the curse, and this whole situation is fallout from that.

I looked at that thing over Mitzi's shoulder for like ten minutes before I realized it was Yoshi, and not Jabba the Hutt.

My first thought was that the ghost wizards were disguised as them until you get to that last panel. Yeah, what the fuck makes Judy turn on Doc?

I'm thinking it was the difference between a Total Party Kill or betray Patrick.
