- Sandy South: The case began to take its toll on me. In an act of desperation, I asked my partner for advice.
- Sandy South: What do you think, Qoo?
- Qoo: I think you’re the most incompetent private eye in the history of crime fighting.
- Sandy South: I meant about the case.
- Qoo: I think the thief will never be caught because you’re the most incompetent private eye in the history of crime fighting.
- Sandy South: If you think you’re so much smarter, then why don’t you try solving the case yourself?!
- Qoo: Fine!
- Caption: Five minutes later
- Sandy South: Beginner’s luck!

I love the look on Woo’s face, Powree, you’ve done a great job.
Btw Sandra’s mouth IT’S THE INNARDS OF PACMAN.
What did this have to do with balloons again?
Yuna: MOOOMMIEEEE!!!!! SHE HIT MEEEEEE!!!!
Sandy: (narration)There was only one thing I could do…
Yuna: MOOOOOOOOMMMIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! SHE’S KISSING MY BROOOOTHEERRRR!!!!! IT’S HORRID!!!!!
Sandy: (narration)And clutching her eyes, the perpetrator retreated to nurse her mental scars. Rough justice, but sometimes you have to take what you can get. Cloud and I decided to give it another five minutes, just in case she came back.
@ DJ Mouthwash:
It was a parody of the spy video game ‘Under a Killing Moon’ I think.
The expressions in this one are priceless, especially Qoo’s “Told ya so” face in the last panel. And Cloud’s sister look pretty cute in that dress! XD
Aha! I knew Woo wouldn’t be slacking off getting a belly rub. In truth he was scouting out the suspect’s berdroom. Truth be told he probably found the Tifa action figure there then, but was gracious enough to try and let his partner figure it out and get the glory. I have heard raccoons are cool that way, not wanting glory and all.
Qoo looks pretty handsome in the last panel, even for a raccoon. Then again, leave it to a handsome raccoon to use “breaking and entering”, a common thief tactic, to find evidence and get immediate results, in essence committing a crime to solve a crime. XD
Silly human being sent to do a raccoon’s job: nosing around and opening everything in the house.
I want a trenchcoat. Does anyone else want a trenchcoat?
I want a trenchcoat.
Geez Woo, why didn’t you look there when you had that alone time with Yuna? Post belly rubs, of course.
@ Petah-Petah:
I think, that’s how he found out…like…
Yuna: yeah…as if a pet would understand whats going on….he’s just a pet
Woo(thinking): yeeesssssss jussst a pet……
HAHAHA!!! yuna’s mouth looks like its about to fall off! looks like the crime is salved! the case is cracked! the… *gets knocked on the head*
Wolf in Bears Clothing (Its the last thing they’d suspect!)
5 minutes later…
Sandy: ‘If you are really that great, you can prove it wasn’t beginner’s luck.’
Qoo: ‘What now?’
Sandy: ‘Find Cloud’s diary.’
Qoo: ‘… I’m done here.’
Qoo: If it’s only beginner’s luck, then why couldn’t YOU find it?
@ Neospector:
I already have one.
Did you know you can just buy trench coats. I know, but it’s true. Sherlock Holmes level detectives aren’t the only people with access to them any more.
It’s sad how we haven’t seen Super Villain Larissa since her debut…
I wanna see more with her. Like… Something wit Super Villain Larissa Invades Northia.
Or SVL matching wits with the great Sandy South.
Case solved ? good, time to change mini-story. <_<
Not that i want to sound like a morron or anything, but i really feel like this parody's been going on way too long.
Woo looks cool in a tie.
Pluus cool point for his laning on the cupoard door.
Sandra’s expression in the last panel cracked me up.
Qoo was looking pretty cool as well. 😉
I have that Tifa model too 🙂
Another score for the masked ones!!
I was thinking, maybe private eye Sandra can discover the dark secret of Larisa, I don’t know if anyone remember but Larisa have a secret that have to do with some pills, is been a while since then and I still wonder what’s her dark secret
Stupid Ockham’s razor. If only it was the RIAA all along…
@ Neospector:
Yah – but I want mine to be ankle-length.
Granted, I’d also like to have a cloak for full dress occasions – black shell, cobalt blue liner…
(Both would be spendy, tho. I’m 6’3″…)
Lol nice Woo. Love this end comic.
All I can say is this comic cracked me up. Thanks for the laughter.
So much more efficient when not paid by the hour.
To quote The Nowhere Man in The Beatles movie, The Yellow Submarine:
“Be empirical: Look!”
Good advice which Woo/Qoo has followed. 🙂
@Bernadotte:
I have my own suspicions on what Larissa is taking those pills for and hence what her secret is. I’d just love to try to “call it”, but I fear that I might spoil the comic for others if I made my speculation known.
@ Neospector:
I have black suede shoes, a pair of black slacks, a white button-up short-sleeve, a trenchcoat, a black fedora, and a pair of wrap-around sunglasses.
My occupation is to walk down the street and look like a badass.
I’m 20 years old and could retire whenever I like.
(I’m kidding of course; looking like a badass is its own reward, so I don’t ask to be paid.)
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNN!!
Is this an alternate dimension in which everyone is aware that Woo/Qoo is intelligent? As Yuna does not seem that shocked that Woo/Qoo is the one who solved the case.
Okay, so the series is now officially called “Sandra and Qoo”, or what?
