Family Circus: How much longer till it gets dark, Mommy?

Jeffy looks a little sad here. And it's because he knows what's going to happen when the sun goes down. While his brothers and sister squeal with glee and stuff their faces with smores by the flickering light of the campfire, Jeffy will be transforming into a werewolf that thirsts for the blood of his family. His only hope is to lock himself in the outhouse, but since he's Jeffy, he also knows he's far too stupid to figure out how to work the lock.*

In short, the Keane family is doomed.

*This, of course, is all a story he has made up in his mind to justify his perverse and violent urges. He is not a werewolf. Rather, he is just an ordinary, run-of-the-mill serial killer. Someday, perhaps he will be able to face the truth. But not tonight. Definitely not tonight.
