77: The Hardy Boys Casefiles #30: The Deadliest Dare Franklin W. Dixon

FancyShark

Nope. Dolphins.

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Theres bound to be one playing with his severed head like a ball.

"Chuffing?" Eat a dick, you limey bastard

1000 Space GDCs

Frank called off the search after 30 seconds, because he was hungry

Rachel

that helicopter is just chuffed to make it into the novel

Badgerman

"Splashing", that classic spotlight sound

FancyShark

Jamming their cameras and mikes into any opening they could find

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Fuck you, ghostwriter, the only things that chuff in Gods America are the tigers we keep illegally.

gellaho

"This is the third explosion which yanked me from slumber"

FancyShark

"Frank bubbled his way down the block, dancing and gargling with concentration"

Rachel

then the two television crews fought like in the hit film anchorman

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Man if only someone hucked a trident in this book.

Badgerman

This dialogue is fucking transcendent

FancyShark

"I should have known an idiot died tonight"

gellaho

There's Frank the sociopath

gellaho

Kevin just behind him, sobbing

Rachel

"I'm gonna sleep soundly from here on out," said Con, drawing his gun on the boys.

Badgerman

Hooey, I say. Hooey!

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Yeah to be fair, international assassins in the process of doing a murder dont really count for public safety concerns in terms of "keep casualties low."

FancyShark

"I mean, there's not enough left to call him a person anymore"

Rachel

No one who growls has ever said Hooey.

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Balderdash is more of a growly word.

gellaho

And on which side is the one called Kevin?

Badgerman

His own, mostly

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

"What? Oh he was just doing pranks. Like arson and kidnapping. No big deal there, right, officer?"

Rachel

"This police shit is hard. Teenage boys, do i give this son of a bitch a medal or a bullet?"

gellaho

I foresee fines

1000 Space GDCs

Constantine Riley just wants teens to do his job for him.

FancyShark

"Depends. He seems to support anyone he thinks is a thief"

Badgerman

Conbaby really peering into the crystal ball for this one

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Bayport PD is really ahead of their time with defunding their police department, since two teen boys seem to solve all the crimes. Officer Con probably just does paperwork.

Rachel

Conneticut Riley is the worst fortune teller in Kirkland.

gellaho

Wakka wakka

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

He's only half Irish after all.

FancyShark

Aunt Gertrude is a gorgon

Rachel

Annnnnnd freezeframe

Badgerman

🎺 Brrrradada-dada-da! 🎵

gellaho

We have defeated The Hardy Boys Casefiles ™️ #30: The Deadliest Dare

Badgerman

<iris wipe gets caught around Joe's neck>

FancyShark

We did it!

1000 Space GDCs

Aunt Gertrude's solution for everything is cod liver oil.

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

If the manga is any indication Aunt Gertrude has what my grandpappy would call "A body made for sin."

Rachel

I want to thank gellaho

gellaho

So concludes the 77th Edition of The Book Cage

1000 Space GDCs

Thanks everyone, as usual.

Rachel

And to a slightly lesser extent, all of you other lovely folks and animals

FancyShark

Thank you everyone!

Great riffs, all!

Rachel

A pleasure as always

Badgerman

Great way to end the week, gang!

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Good way to spend a Friday night.

FancyShark

Thank you, @gellaho !

I can't wait to hear all of your chapters for Hardyween!

Rachel

Remember to have your Hardy's spayed and/or neutered.

1000 Space GDCs

Thanks to everyone condemning this book to book jail.

FancyShark

And if you see a Callie, just remember she's as scared of you as you are of her

Agent of Fortune

Thanks Gellaho!

Horse Boxing Flippant Sausage

Wear gloves and wash your hands while handling a wild Callie, they dont carry rabies but are prone to ticks and fleas.

Badgerman

The Hardies have names.
