‘Thorough maid find dirt in many places’ as Charlie might say, or ‘Chinese cook like lucky bag, full of surprises’
Page 5 – Where did Gina get the book to throw at Keeno and what happened to Kirk in that frame – he simply disappeared – only to reappear later. Is Charlie a Chinese magician after all?
Ah ha! The old bandage over the nose trick – as used by Jack Nicholson in Chinatown (or was it The Two Jakes? I loved them both equally)

The table with a Yellow lampshade on it may have been where Gina got the book. There is another book visible, too if you look close. Kirk disappearing, I can't explain, maybe artist drew from another perspective angle and he's behind Chan?.. None the less, I did not realize cook was Charlie Chan until much later. Pretty imaginative for a comic strip.
