[Panel 1]
[Elizabeth]
I got you a new lightbulb.

[Nils]
Why?

[Elizabeth]
That one is getting
sad and old and dim.

[Nils]
So? It still comes on.

[Elizabeth]
It's bad for your eyes.


[Panel 2]
[Nils]
No, it's bad for YOUR eyes
having old dim lightbulbs.

I don't spend all MY
time reading, y'know.

[Elizabeth]
No, you spend it painting
teeny-tiny figures with
two-hair paintbrushes.

[Nils]
Well, all right. Maybe it is easier
if I can see what I'm doing.


[Panel 3]
[Nils]
It was a good old lightbulb...

[Elizabeth]
... but it done broke
down. Here you are.

[Nils]
Thanks. How much do I owe you?

[Elizabeth]
Four pounds eighty.


[Panel 4]
[Nils]
What!?

That's outrageous!

Four pounds eighty
for one lightbulb?

[Elizabeth]
It's energy-saving,
same as the last one.

Anyhow, I thought you didn't
worry about real money?

[Nils]
Not when it's at the bank, no.

That's other people's.
