#In the kitchen.
[Panel 1]
[Bell]
Welcome to the twenty-ninth Guy
Fawkes' Day so far this year.
[Elizabeth]
Tea?
[Bell]
I just poured you some.
[Elizabeth]
Tea!
[Bell]
On the table. Left hand down a bit.
[Elizabeth]
Ah. Tea.
[Panel 2]
[Bell]
If you step over to the window
(after your tea, obviously)
you will see Nils in the yard.
Dressed.
Before noon.
On a Sunday.
[Elizabeth]
Oh dear. Is this an
emergency, jeopardy, or
just the end of the world?
[Bell]
He did mutter something
about Armageddon.
[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
Nothing too drastic then.
I'll just have my tea.
[Bell]
He SAID he was setting
up a braai for tonight.
[Elizabeth]
I get the feeling you're
expecting me to worry?
[Bell]
I'm planning to flap now and
build up gradually to full scale
crisis-mode around dusk.
[Panel 4]
[Elizabeth]
Is there something you
haven't yet told me?
[Bell]
He's also got some fireworks.
[Elizabeth]
Well, it is Guy Fawkes'.
[Bell]
From a friend of Jaakko's.
[Elizabeth]
OMIGOD! We're all DOOMED!
[Bell]
Yeah. You may now panic.
If I phone the family now, d'you
think they could get Grandad's
tin hat couriered down in time?
