[Panel 1]
[Steve]
We do OK at lunchtime, Bell?

[Bell]
Wha-?!

[Bell]
Don't DO that, Steve!

[Steve]
Do what?

[Bell]
Just suddenly be behind me.

[Steve]
Sorry.

[Bell]
Can't you stamp a bit
so I hear you coming?

[Panel 2]
[Steve]
That'd go against the
habits of a lifetime.

[Bell]
Anyhow, what are you doing here? I
wasn't expecting you back till six.

[Steve]
I thought I could
take over if you want.

[Bell]
What's the matter, don't you
trust me on my own in here?

[Steve]
Now come on Bell, you
know that's not...

[Panel 3]
[Bell]
Think I'll fiddle the till
if no-one's watching me?

[Steve]
No, I...

[Bell]
All right then, I
WON'T polish all the
brasswork as a nice
surprise for you!

[Steve]
Was that what you were up to?

[Bell]
Yes it was and now it isn't.

[Panel 4]
[Steve]
Makes us quits. I was trying
to do you a favour by giving
you a bit of time off.

[Bell]
You were?

[Steve]
Yeah, and now I'm not.

[Bell]
Oh well. I can't afford to miss a
shift anyway -- I need the money.

[Steve]
Pass the Brasso,
I'll give you a hand.
