1. This is a strip that could just as easily be done in three panels. There is really no reason to have that first panel here, especially since the second panel already combines Violet sighting Patty with Charlie Brown and her remarking upon it.
2. I don't really "get" the joke to this one. Is it that Charlie Brown automatically assumes that he is the "bad?"
3. The trees blowing in the wind in the background of the last panel are a very nice touch.
4. This is the most solid example yet of Charlie Brown's emerging defeatist personality.
