The culprit....is Queen Sunshine, Shift Supervisor's clingy girlfriend! Upper Management Guy revealed that Supervisor was planning on eloping with Princess, so the two of them set him up to take the fall for the heist. Queen Sunshine tries to talk Dogby into leaving together, but he ain't havin' it, so she pulls a gun. Snack Girl talks Dogby out of attacking, and OLD Shift Supervisor (the dude from the hotel two posts ago) runs in and tackles her off the cliff. He got shot, but he took her down with him. (and it's all poetic an' such because that's the same cliff off of which Sunshine pushed Princess) Turns out he was the one who helped Snack Girl bust out Dogby, too.

Dogby disappears, leaving Snack Girl with the money and a note. He actually had played a (small) part in the raid, just out of friendship with Shift Supervisor, not for the money or for Princess like we'd all assumed. He'd actually been with her, and she was relatively genuine, but they both knew she was too much of a gold-digging butterfly for it to work long-term. He advises Snack Girl to find somebody better, and never sees her again. It seems that he's going to wind up in Alaska next volume, which may or may not have ever been a thing that came out.

My rating: 8/10
I thought this was gonna be dumb, but eh, it was pretty fun! You had mystery, you had a bunch of silly references, and a weirdly compelling protagonist. (did I mention he never speaks, in addition to never showing his face?) I find it interesting that the series apparently moved on from the initial setting. There weren't many characters left alive and unresolved I guess, but it was just such a unique idea that riding off into the sunset seems odd. Ah well. Maybe I'll see if I can find Volume 2 someday.

Discussion question: What's the weirdest setting you've seen?
Hint for next: An old Wifebolo standby, but AFAIK with a lower ratio of ambiguously gay bishies than you may have come to expect from this topic.
