[Panel 1]
[Elizabeth]
Ah, good. I have a new
meat-scorching technique I
want your opinion on.

[Nils]
Eurgh. Not tonight.

[Elizabeth]
Tiring day? You had to go
to Paris again, didn't you?

[Nils]
It wasn't the work,
it was the flight home.

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
Slogging through all the usual
searches and stuff, so I don't
have any of my tools with me...

Then just as we're about
to take off a maggot
falls onto my lap.

[Elizabeth]
Er... left by a previous passenger?

[Nils]
Then approximately twelve
thousand four hundred and
twenty seven of its best mates
come down to keep it company.

[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
Eep?

[Nils]
Turns out the bloke
next to me was
trying to get some
sausage back home
before it spoiled,
only he was about
three days too late.

[Elizabeth]
How horrid.

[Nils]
So everyone round me is flicking the
things off their clothes, and things are
getting a bit edgy... and then the cabin
crew guy says everyone should keep calm.

[Panel 4]
[Elizabeth]
Let me guess, that's when
the screaming started?

[Nils]
And the stampede to the emergency
exit. But at least I got to go down
the slide. Always wanted to do that.

[Elizabeth]
I can see why
you don't want
to think about
meat tonight.

[Nils]
Yeah, in return for not suing they
gave us an all-you-can-eat buffet
while we waited for another plane.

They probably thought I would
have lost my appetite...
