717: Furtive

![]() Title text: ... go go gadget video camera. Go go gadget cup. |
[edit] Explanation
The person in the comic is Inspector Gadget from the animated series of the same name. Gadget was a cyborg detective that had access to a wide variety of gadgets which he would activate with the words "Go go gadget [insert item here]." The gadgets would usually spawn from his hat, such as his trademark personal helicopter ("go go gadget copter!"). One of the running gags of the series was that Gadget was completely clueless during his missions, and unbeknownst to him, relied heavily on the assistance of his niece Penny, her computer book, and her dog, Brain.
In this strip, Inspector Gadget (wearing his trademark hat and trench coat) looks around furtively before saying the words "Go go gadget two lesbians doing it." The fantasy of lesbians having sex is a common turn-on for straight men. The command, given in the last panel of the comic, also serves to identify the person speaking. Identification along with the punchline is a common comedy trope.
In the title text, Gadget requests further gadgets: A video camera, to record the action, and a cup. The cup is either a reference to the well-known, allegedly scatological pornographic video 2 Girls, 1 Cup, or else something to ejaculate into.
