I was kind of stuck on this one. I knew I wanted to make the Balloon into Balloony from Phineas and Ferb, considering I've been watching a lot of that lately, BUT I didn't want to reuse the ending from the other SRoMG strip, so I was just kind of figuring out an ending. I don't know what possessed me to make a Dragnet reference, probably the ghost of Jack Webb, but I'm glad I did, because it made the strip that much better.
