It's the Day's Day of Days! Because so trip it up and down!
There are two general sorts of these plot twists, the ones Muir slides into because a story wasn't going how he intended and the ones he plotted in advance. This looks like one of the second, and... well, it shows how terrible he is at this, because we are a triple nullification of the immigrant bit from earlier--they weren't a threat to her because John showed up, but they weren't a threat to because she had a gun, but they weren't a threat to her because she was someone else entirely, and that someone is the robot killing machine.
And for the 5, 846th time, I ask how in the world are you and the Peanut Gallery even FOLLOWING any of this??? I read these, reread them, reread them again, go back and reread the previous ten or even twenty strips —— and Inwould jot know what the bloody #%!$& is going on without all the commentary from you and/or them.

To answer your question on how I'm following this--I've got years of familiarity with Muir's plotlines to make me go "Oh, wait," when he does shit like this.
DeleteBecause, yes, this is confusingly blocked shit.
On the other hand, since I'm not John or the peanut gallery...how am I following this? With great difficulty.
DeleteI will say, though, that I also think you're overestimating how well the peanut gallery is following this. Anytime you take a look there, you will see lots of speculation and confusion about what exactly is going on, and they frequently make incorrect guesses about what Muir is trying to say. They're just very enthusiastically confident about their wrong guesses...which, come to think of it, is how they became part of the MAGA/DBD cult in the first place.
Right, it's the same as them insisting this is brilliantly drawn, them desperately trying to pretend this thing has a merit that it doesn't.
