      Not so much a dick, as just somebody with no governor on his brain-mouth connection. When you look at his overall character, he actually has a lot more basic virtues than a lot of the others we’ve met in this strip. You wouldn’t invite him to a party, but he wouldn’t cheat you at cards, either. He might screw up an easy hand, though. Make sure he partners with someone else.

      The closest one to Mr. Zorilla in character type is probably Emily, who is basically also an unpleasant piece of work who is solid gold at her core. Kind of deep in the core, but it’s there. Unlike Mr. Zorilla, though, Emily is frighteningly competent.

    “Good point, they could speed things up a bit…”
