It’s the Treasure Inspector!
So in panel 5 is Christi being aggresively defensive about her plan not working out, or did she have something planned that the gorilla was playing right into? Hmmm.
The last couple panels of this went through many revisions on the writing board before I settled on this ending. The most obvious joke was to have the Looney Tune ending where the gorilla turns out to be the real Princess Christi but that didn’t feel right to me.

I love how this one has such mounting levels of weirdness. First there’s the ape with treasure, then there’s the “real” Princess Christi showing up in panel 3, then panel 5’s post-heist unmasking, and then the impostor is convinced that Christi really did confiscate the treasure as defective. This one was hilarious all the way through, not just at the punchline. I’d say all your rewrites paid off! 🙂
