Yes, the comma is necessary, to omit it leaves the identity of "Smelly" to chance.![]()

The one placed after "Yes" is not however obligatory. I'm not saying it's incorrect, just ostentatious.
Indeed it adds nothing to the sentence.
It is frivolous in the extreme, you should be ashamed of yourself.

I aspire to ostentatiousness.
I was inhibited as a child-an uncle who owned a punctuation mart willed me a billion assorted commas, periods, colons (regular and semi-), and I'm using them as quickly as I can.
I think it's safe to say I'll never run out; luckily, they don't take up much space and transport easily enough.![]()

Tho' I probably know how to use them I'm never sure if I do it right in this or that language, I think their uses differ, see.

Although English may not be your first language, you are a damn sight easier to understand than some who do not have that fall back.

Thanks, I think.
