I hardly ever drive a car to work, I usually take the bus or ride my bike. One time I was on the bus and this wretched young lady came on the bus, talking to her friend about how she scared a bunch of kids by screaming GUN at the top of her lungs in a hallway. Its hard to have a sense of humor about that sort of thing.
Sabrina didn’t hold her tongue on that, and she *probably* should have considering how quickly it escalated from there. Luckily, the girl in the pink hair didn’t want any part of a brawl.
And how about Brooke. Is she right for chastising Sabrina? Or is Brooke scolding Sabrina for another reason? In any case, Brooke was over by Sabrina in a heartbeat to dole out her comments ready quick. Check out the look on both Sabrina and Brooke… they might just pick up where they left off from the Rookie Rumble!
Discussion (16) ¬
I never expect this would happen. You got me.. surprise me even more that next episode. 😀
My oh My.. a brawl. I really don’t know why Sabrina gave an extra comment to that girl, maybe Sabrina felt that she’s left out in the people’s attention. Brooke made her move which the guys went to play with her. now this girl shouted “Gun!!” want to make an extra scene, so she can have the attention of the people.
Sabrina said “you’re an idiot,” is like she wants to cause trouble. why I said that Sabrina wants a trouble? answer look at Sabrina’s reaction at panel three, she doesn’t look shock, that girl pulled her hair. and look she’s ready for a fight, close fist.
and look at Krystin, Sun and Brooke, they just ignored it, they didn’t want any trouble. didn’t make an extra comment. Brooke has a chance to complain and put out a voice and said to those girls “you’re an idoit” coz she’s having fun, and breaking that fun isn’t nice. but in this case she didn’t.
I agree with Brooke, no doubt.
I think Sabrina will get a fine for that, punching a girl. She’s a pro-wrestler. maybe a suspension in Rival Angels, and stripping the chance of competing for the T.V. Title.. (If this happen, GOOD JOB ALAN,) 😀
for a punching a girl, now if that breaks out. Damn!! sure it can be great damage for Sabrina.
She’ll be Booooo’ed!!! causing trouble on a bar. A wrestler is role model. if that a role model. that why they always made this ad. “Please don’t copy what we do in the ring, at home or at school, stay safe, don’t try this”
I’ll be looking forward Sabrina’s suspension and fined, and even get boooo’ed. 😀
More conscequences coming, Sabrina will be banned from that lollipop bar.
Warning!!Warning!! Watch out for bottles, it might get hit in your heads.
I think the next episode the girl will be that, the girl will get an empty bottle and try to strike the bottle on Sabrina’s head, but Sabrina dodges it and then hit Brooke. then Sabrina punched the girl, when Brooke recovered. Brooke punched Sabrina on the face. (Chances of this 50%)(it’s just my estimation, this might not happen)
or maybe, the girl will get an empty bottle and try to strike the bottle on Sabrina’s head, and then Sun intervine which the girl will get NINJA’D and then all brawl free for all. if they happen the upstart girls are in deep deep trouble. Suspensions, fine and get booo’ed from Rival Angels fans. (Chances of this 50%)(it’s just my estimation, this might not happen)
Bad Girls Bad Girls, what you gonna do, what you gonna do when they come for you!! 😀
I wonder? is these two girls wrestlers? maybe from other organization?
May I add something, I felt Brooke saying that is to protect their public image. episode 72-73, they really entertained the fans and the customers in the bar. then suddenly Sabrina channeled her anger and jelousy of Brooke, then used it towards to that girl. I mean punch the girl.
Looking on that point, Brooke loves to have fans on her, not only Brooke. I say the upstart girls. Sabrina’s action which cause brawl inside the bar. The girl who shouted “Gun” even though she laugh out loud, if they ignored it. there will be okay. Ignoring is the best way to stay out of trouble.
This really is a mind game. a mind game is which Sabrina is in it. this mind game didn’t set up by Brooke, Sabrina is the only one setting it up.
Sabrina must understand Brooke, Episode 9-10. Brooke is the friendly to the stranger. Episode 9, she first introduce herself to Sabrina. Brooke really like to be recognize and be part of like in Episode 31 and 32, which is introduce herself to the Hell’s Belle, which in that the Hell’s Belle ignored her.
if Sabrina in the next episode Sabrina reasoned out “That they started attacking me” Brooke might asked “who provoke them?, who said you’re a real idiot”
In Brooke’s part, Brooke don’t like to let Sabrina screw another opportunty. now these opportunity are guys. Brooke used this tactics so Sabrina wouldn’t screw again like the last time. Brooke used a defense mechanizm, which is that if they ignored her and then go to Sabrina. it’s kinda trigger a signal this is gonna be bad for me. flashback episode 32 and 33. which in this time. Brooke has done nothing wrong. the problem lies in Sabrina.
Sabrina be careful, coz you know payback is a bitch. they might be in Rival ANgels audience and screw you or maybe on the way home.
If Sabrina got suspended, fine and stripping her opportunity for the T.V. Title, and the fans boooing serves a lesson. A lesson for her to be a role model type of wrestler. but this lesson is just a minor lesson for Sabrina, there are alot things to learn to it.
This chapter: Rules of Engagement is great title..
Rule of engagement, if there’s someone making a fool of herself, just ignore it.
…Never saw that coming.Lol.That women actually deserved that punch, after all she did stomp on the ultra foot and her face will never…I said never…Eeever be the same ag’n.I’ve been in sabrina’s shoe’s, it’s hard to annoy a person who’s provocating (not sure if that’s spelt right) you by calling you an idiot and stomping on your foot.But the one thing sabrina did that i would never do and that’s punch that person’s lights out.I guess i’m a lover, not a fighter.I enjoyed the classic “what did you say biotch” line once again riva’sand your amazing work have me hook.

“I’m special damnit!”
MGC, that is an interesting observation. I don’t know that Sabrina said what she said because she’s jealous of Brooke. I think she said what she did because it was a thoughtless comment by the antagonistic girl. There are serious fines for yelling ‘FIRE’ in a crowded area like a theatre and I think yelling GUN is along the same lines. Its trying to incite panic, especially in light of the many publicized shootings in the last few years. You make a good point that Sabrina doesn’t look shocked, but she just got out of a match where three of her roommates were yanking her hair and beating her down. Some hood rat with a loud mouth and a hairpull will need more than that to get the drop on Sabrina.
But what does everyone else think? Should Sabrina get fined or suspended? What would you have done if someone tried to bully you into submission? Would you fight back, or would you retreat? Is this a ‘tsk tsk’ moment for Sabrina, or an ‘atta girl!’
Prince Charming (or should I call you Crazy Mandy?), glad that I was able to surprise you! Actually, the hood rat girl got her foot stomped by Sabrina, but Sabrina attacked after being yanked off of her chair.
One thing I can absolutely say though, is that this little episode isn’t over yet!!
yeah, Sabrina! Listen to Brooke. Unfortunately, in this society, being an athlete, a professional athlete, and attacking someone, even if in self defense (enough comma breaks?), can be construed as lethal force and charges can range from simple battery to battery with a lethal weapon… Davey Boy smith sinmply incapacitated a drunk man who was strating to throw sloppy punches at the Bulldog and… someone else… and narrowly escaped prison time. Being that Sabrina is a face, she would probably get a fine and suspension (hurts her character) but she’s in the middle of an expensive push, so I doubt the reprimand will be too harsh. If it was Brooke (a heel) the company would’ve marketed the hell out of it. Fell free to throw in a paragraph break here and there.
Even though the chick (who probably knows Sabrina or is related to wrestling somehow) needed to get her block knocked off, Brooke is right: you can’t solve everything with violence. Pretty sure the girls could muster something, other than muscle, that would make that chick feel like the pile of crap she is.
I think I had a point when I started… ummm… San Dimas High school Football Rules!!!!
Should Sabrina get fined or suspended?
Answer:
Fine and suspension, and strip her chance to battle for the T.V. Title to Sabrina. she’s a wrestler. This could be her learning expirience. if this were boxing, surely she’ll get a suspension and her boxing license will be cut.
What would you have done if someone tried to bully you into submission?
This can be resolved at the first place. if Sabrina would just kept her mouth.
Would you fight back, or would you retreat?
Every action there’s a reaction, if Sabrina fight’s back, win or loss, still a loss for her. Her status is a wrestler, a pro-wrestler. she should think the consequences on her career. like getting suspension, fine and even her status and fame will fall. A brawl.
Is this a ‘tsk tsk’ moment for Sabrina, or an ‘atta girl!’?
tsk tsk moment for Sabrina. Sabrina must know her status as wrestler, role model.
At the first place, if Sabrina will just leave them alone, I think somebody will be calling the cops already. Sabrina won’t have a problem with that.
So this action happen, fined Sabrina, maybe not suspending her, but strip her opportunity for the T.V. tournament. 😀
Huh… I didn’t mention anything about the art. The punch lookes great! Good impact lines. But, the way Sabrina’s head is turned in the last panel looks a little off… almost egyptian if you know what I mean.
The reaction panel is very well done. I think it would’ve been funny (and completely ruined the mood, mind you) if some quarters fell out of Brooke’s naughty pillows.
Being the professional wrestler that she is, Sabrina’s gotta know that she severelyoutmatches this chick as far as fighting capability is concerned. There would’ve been numerous ways to get out of that situation far more elegantly than a fist in the face.
Shoud she be fined or suspended..?
I’m not sure yet, I’ll need to see how the situation developes further.
Ah Jamie, some good points there. What I know of the law *around here* is that when the redhead pulled Sabrina’s hair, that was assault and therefore Sabrina could defend herself. I don’t know if Sabrina and Davey Boy can be compared the same though. He was a lot bigger than Sabrina but I get the point. I guess we’ll have to see how the rest of this scene plays out, after all in that last panel, Brooke is awfully up in Sabrina’s face. Thanks for the comments on the art too! I seriously did contemplate having quarters falling out of Brooke’s cleavage but for the same reason you posted, is why I avoided it.
MGC, that’s cool and I appreciate your comments. I guess we’ll just have to see how the rest of this plays out.
JackAce, well you’re assuming that the redhead chick isn’t trained in any sort of fighting, she was awfully quick to start the fight with Sabrina. But I hears ya that some of you don’t like Sabrina’s retaliation. Ironically, a lot of my female fans are in support of Sabrina’s actions with comments ranging from the girl isn’t worth Sabrina’s time, to having Sabrina scream Titty Twister and go to town. Very interesting indeed.
Actually, I’ve been mickey mousing around the fact because I don’t want to give anything away in the next few pages but win, lose or draw, Sabrina will have some repercussions and consequences from this evening’s events.
Wasn’t expecting that. “GUN”? Are you serious? That’s just wrong! I’m so glad Sabrina took her down a peg.
I bet Brooke wishes she‘d been the one to knock that girl out!
I’m surprised Sabrina didn’t punch with her right; the momentum to spin on her left foot is right there.
@Jamie – 67th Avenue
I don’t think people who pull that kind of stunt are easily “put in their place”. And the quarters flying out of Brooke’s cleavage would have been funny; maybe we’ll see a bunch of quarters on the ground in the next comic.
@M.G.C.
You’ve already proven that you don’t like Sabrina, so maybe you’re being a little harsh on her. One punch in response to hair-pulling; a fine, sure, but suspension seems a little extreme.
Of course, that’s assuming nothing else happens. Albone keeps saying, “we’ll have to see how the rest of this plays out”, so Sabrina still has ample opportunity to do some other stupid things. Or Brooke, or Krystin, or Sun, or even the red-headed girl, for that matter.
Also, they might be able to spin the publicity to make Sabrina out to be a hero. Maybe even for taking on an “armed assailant”. 😉 (I hope they don’t go that far.) Now THAT would be funny. I think the media would be inclined to believe in Sabrina.
A. Mouse, very cool comments and you’re definitely on the right trail with Brooke. Brooke’s not mad at what Sabrina did from an ethical point of view but more of a selfish one. Actually, Sabrina punched with her left because she didn’t want to all-out rock punk girl but I didn’t think mentioning that would’ve helped before.
Ample time in spades for Sabrina, Brooke, Sun and the punk girl to throw gasoline on a bad situation. And you’re right about the spin that Rival Angels corporate office could spin, but even compared to the world of the NFL (shootings, beatings, robberies, spousal abuse), this situation is hardly overly controversial in the great scheme of things, though I should reinterate that Sabrina’s actions won’t go unnoticed by the front office.
Don’t be too hard on Sabrina, she’s starting to feel the pressure from the Diaz’s, De Sade’s and tournament talk with a support system that includes Krystin and Brooke and its only going to get worse for her.
Ok, that makes sense. It just seemed natural to me for her to put some extra force behind the punch.
I didn’t think I was being too hard on Sabrina (maybe Brooke, but not Sabrina). Sabrina has a lot of pressure on her (heck, they all do), so it makes sense that she’d blow up at someone yelling “GUN!” And people are more likely to take her side over gun-girl, because she was trying to incite something and started the fight by pulling Sabrina’s hair. It wouldn’t be too hard for Rival Angels to spin it. Now, depending on what happens next, that could change.
Also, isn’t Sabrina supposed to be relaxing? This is definitely not relaxing.
“Don’t be too hard on Sabrina, she’s starting to feel the pressure from the Diaz’s, De Sade’s and tournament talk”
I know she’s starting to feel pressure from Lorretta Diaz, but how can she feel pressure from Chloe De Sade? Sabrina doesn’t know that Chloe is plotting something against her.
A. Mouse, my bad I didn’t mean to imply you were hard on Sabrina, that last bit was for the rest of the readers. Actually, I appreciate your fresh perspective on the situation. 🙂 Yes, this is decidedly NOT relaxing and things are going to get amped up starting…. the next panel.
Yeah, you’re right MGC, I was sort of meta-gaming there, so to speak. I’ll be interested in your take come the next update. 😉
OH, NOES! NAWT TEH META-GAMES! 😉
Man, that was hard to write. I just don’t think in LOLcat very easily.
*does a little dance of joy* I have a fresh perspective? Cool!
