# big room, round the table
[Panel 1]
[Elizabeth]
"Tithing". Ten, and
double word is twenty.
[Nils]
That's a bit
archaic, isn't it?
[Elizabeth]
Count yourself lucky I'm not
allowed to play "hwaet".
[Nils]
Bah.
[Bell]
Are you passing?
[Panel 2]
[Nils]
No, "bah" is the longest
word I can make. Eight.
[Bell]
Couldn't you get ONE of
those on a double letter?
I'll take that "chain" you left lying
around and stick a "sawing" on the end.
Twenty, double the W is twenty-four,
triple word is seventy-two.
[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
Eep!
[Bell]
Oh, it could be worse. In the
new edition you can use proper
nouns or spell words backwards.
[Elizabeth]
Come off it. What
would be the point?
[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Got to beat the old score records
somehow. Like hotel star ratings.
I think someone's building a
"ten star" hotel in Dubai...
[Elizabeth]
Ghastly.
Eleven, double Y is fifteen,
double word is thirty.
