There's so much to like about this strip. I guess that's why I like it so much!

So does red cordial equate to red wine in Phillipe's world?

Also it's an 'adventure-lesson' because everything should be educational.

The very nature of being a child is interpreting cliche divested of context, huh?

Interesting.

Phillipe is a serious hero for serious times.

Also: I think we should all have gangster names.

The President of the Mafia should also quit smoking. It is very bad for him.

I can't think of a good gangster name for myself. I'd probably end up with something crappy like Joey Post Count or Tony the Gut

Joey Post Count

But this is a fantastic mafia name!

I know people who get very nice when they take Ecstasy - but they always end up drinking lots of water too so I might have the causation wrong.

Wait, did the kid break Johnny Phone Call's hand, or his phone?
Either way, that man has some problems.

Pronoun trouble.

Well, after the kid kicks his phone out of his hand, Johnny Phone Calls is described as "holding his phone hand," so it can reasonably be assumed that his attention is focused on his hand, not the phone.

It sounds more like how someone would write a person trying to talk with a busted nose...I guess this is all part of the "cliches filtered through Phillipe's naivete" bit. I approve of course.
