On the following page you can find all the info about this year’s Sandra and Woo + Gaia artwork contest which comes with $5000 prize money!
I uploaded an updated version where it’s clearer that the painting is for sale and expensive.
- Woo: Are you looking at raccoon paintings?
- Sandra: Yes, I found some pretty good ones, especially on the website of this artist here.
- Sandra: But I haven’t found a really amazing one yet.
- Woo: What about this one for $1300?
- Caption: Richard’s wallet: It has no mouth, but it must scream!
- Richard: ?
- Richard’s wallet: Oh God, no! It’ll hurt so much!!

Oh I liked that game. Not playing or watching it, I just liked the ending where 1 of them gets turned into that thing to suffer for eternity.
I remember a story of Harlan Edison “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”, but I don’t understand a point here. 🙁 What connected Ted (a main character in the story) with Richard’s wallet?
Harlan Ellison approves…

-I- approve this strip too! 🙂 Now I may have to go through my older books and see if I can find that story to read again.
Okay; the strip involves art. There’s bound to be some way to drag Larisa and/or her father into this. 🙂
Who do you think painted the raccoon?

Yap, it’s clear now! 🙂
Stop it wallet … you know you like it.
Hopefully Richard has to personally approve expenses of that magnitude.

Apparently dad is gonna have to pay for it 😛
@ Asrial:
I’d certainly hope so. If nothing else, you’d think he would have locked things down after the his ‘n’ hers maid costumes.
That’s funny.
It must be nice being an only daughter in this day and age. If I had tried something like that back in the day my parents would have grounded me for life, or at least until I’d graduated from college.
@ Wizard:
Richard may not remember the maid costume incident. I recall him being so traumatized that he allowed Larissa to operate on his brain in hope of removing that memory.
I can “hear” my wallet complaining about art costing less than £100.
Looks like Sandy’s gonna be getting a job.
And thus, with Richard now bankrupt, He and his daughter were forced to eat Woo to survive.

IF he remebers it.
Then again, this is just a basic common sense safety measure.
Want to watch a wallet scream leave children alone with FIFA
@ Hegel Marx:
The connection is that neither has a mouth?
I watched my brother raise two little girls to adulthood and saw variations of that scene play out in real life more than once.
While I regret never having children, I do not regret avoiding what a teenager will do to one’s bank account.
I have read a fair number of Ellison’s works, so I recognized the reference immediately. The connection is that neither one has a mouth, and both feel an overwhelming need to scream.
Sandra’s dad (did we ever learn his name?), on the other hand, does have a mouth, and is likely to do a lot of screaming when he gets the bill.
@ Frederick Newsom:
Who said he was going to get the bill?

Sure we did, he is Richard. See http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2015/04/23/0677-point-of-no-return/ for example, or the tag with his name 🙂
