Suddenly Cherry reverts to her “trailer trash” heritage (see the first Rivera-era story: Dec-21-20) as her apparent lack of education comes into full display in panel 4. But is she just being impertinent to Violet the Tramp? How else to explain her crudity? Cherry’s grabbing the note and her reaction in panel 3 (“…there’s no way I wrote this”) is the setup for the upcoming put-down.

But Cherry’s sarcasm in panel 4 is undermined by Rivera’s disappointing derisive response in the same panel, which otherwise provides us with no useful insights into the story. That’s my opinion. Do you have a different interpretation?
