Mary Worth, 8/10/22

A relatively recent and welcome addition to the Mary Worth storytelling canon is the wacky dream sequence, in which the characters confront whatever their current dilemma is in a series of images that are simultaneously hallucinatory and extremely on the nose. Anyway, it's already Wednesday, so we'd better get full week and half of whatever Weston chimera, half-Dawn and half-Wilbur, is going to be the horrified and horrifying subject of this next nightmare. Not sure if Dawn's "AUGGGH!” is meant to indicate that we're already in the dream and she's beginning to experience the awful physical transformation into Wilburdom, or if it's just because her lower GI tract is firing on all cylinders thanks to that chili.
