This story is doing a good job of countering the stereotype of people in trailer parks as white trash on a short fuse, ready to insult and brawl on sight.

Re: The Mark Trail Thread of Punching Justice and Smug Life Lessons
So, in the past week, we've learned that Mark's dad ripped off Jolly, tricking him into a bad partnership and then polluting his land. Mark is regretful that he didn't punch his dad (or maybe I'm just projecting). Anyway, what's curious is this frog that has been around the entire time and now leaps away. Like, is the frog a spy?

Anyone else here read the last panel as, "I had to 'do' a volcano"?
Also, new Rusty looks like Jim Carroll.
