Okay, so I noticed a small plot flaw in the current Schlock story line. We've recently discovered that Schlock can smell really well, right? He first became suspicious of Mr. Monobrow because the guy smelled like boomex. Well, therein lies the problem. Schlock first met Mr. Monobrow right after the undercover operative died by being blown up with--you remember right?--boomex. It's been implied that it was Mr. Monobrow himself who did it.
So, here are my questions:
1) Why didn't Schlock get suspicious the first time he met Mr. Monobrow, who, presumably, would have reeked of boomex?
2) If it was natural for schlock to not get suspicious the first time (say he thought that Mr. Monobrow may have smelled like boomex because the guy had been investigating the crime), then why did Schlock get suspicious the second time he smelled it (or in the alternative, if Schlock didn't smell it the first time, why not)?
Of course, it has not been revealed that Monobrow actually did the deed. It might have been the elephant, but then again, that brings up several more questions, like, why didn't Schlock detect the smell of boomex on the elephant? How does an elephant get on top of the dam without being noticed? She's not exactly a stealth character.
*sigh*
I know it's just a web comic (*preemptively hides from the forthcoming flames*), but I hate it when things don't fit together nicely. Perhaps they will fit together eventually (*hears the sound of Mr. Tayler editing frantically his next cartoon*), but as things stand now, I'm having trouble seeing how this will all jive.
