Location: Denver, Colorado, Joyce and Walky's apartment
I occurs to me that Joyce is arriving at a separate place than Walky was, as tradition demands they keep separate before the ceremony, but I don’t know what separate place this is. And I’m not gonna think about it! Whoops, moving on.

commentary: it’s the green room
comic: “he doesn’t suspect we’re acshully attending a weddin'”
if it’s the green room where’s neo-nazi Patrick Stewart
Wait, Jason doesn’t know that they’re going to Joyce and Walky’s wedding? I could’ve sworn Sal mentioned it earlier, but maybe I was wrong.
1. was a joke
2. very likely Jason doesn’t believe the wedding will go through
Re: the commentary:
Well, he was supposed to be heading for “Danny and Billie’s” before Headorothy intervened, and the comic immediately before this showed Danny and Joe (plus the SP! cast) with him, suggesting that’s where they were…
…except, of course, we previously saw Danny and Joe with Joyce at her and Walky’s apartment, between those two strips ( comments with more than one link get flagged, but the end of the URL is “and-were-looking-sharp”)… meaning that’s where they and Walky are now… and it’s also where Joyce, Becky, and Carol are. And so, it would seem, is Rachel.
Unless Joe and Danny traveled back to Danny and Billie’s between then and now, which I suppose is possible given Ultra Car’s speed.

This one’s tagged “some country road”, when it’s clearly Joyce and Walky’s apartment. Let’s say Danny, Joe, and Ultra Car were there to drop Rachel off.
I choose to believe the last couple are also mis-tagged. Joyce dumped Walky off at Danny and Billie’s place, and he’s helping himself to their shower.
Re: the comic itself:
In light of the implication here that Sal knew about the tracker Joe implanted during Walky’s resurrection, and didn’t tell Jason because she wanted to spend time with him looking for Walky, I have to wonder how long she and/or Joyce have known about it. Like, when she first brought it up a couple strips ago I read it as implying that she’d only just found out about it herself, but here it’s clear that either she or Sal has known about it for a while. Potentially even as far back as the resurrection itself.
I mean personally, if I found out on my wedding day that my fiance had known about a tracking chip in my body for five years* and not told me, I might consider calling the whole thing off.
*2009 is the time period I’m going with for the events of the wedding in my personal attempt at something resembling a coherent timeline, for reasons related to Joe’s appearances in Shortpacked!
Says the man who carries a tracking chip around with him in his cell phone, just like the rest of us.
We know about our phones and make the choice to have devices that can be GPS monitored or triangulated. We can also ditch our phones. Very different.
I’m not sure Sal has ever looked more like David than that third panel.
Maybe don’t scheme out loud sal
