[Panel 1]
[Bell]
Oh, hi, Nils... when does the
end of the world happen, again?
[Nils]
The twenty-first.
[Bell]
Oh. But that was last Friday.
[Nils]
Yeah. It didn't come off.
Not that anyone really
expected it to...
We just hoped a bit.
[Bell]
I suppose. But a bunch of Mayan
gods or marauding robots would
have made things a lot simpler.
[Panel 2]
[Nils]
Funny word to pick.
Shorter, maybe.
Crunchier, briefly.
[Bell]
No, I mean nobody would
have to make any choices
or admit to anything.
[Nils]
Bell... you're beginning to worry
me. Wandering about like three wet
bank holidays in a row. What is it?
[Bell]
I just feel like a complete fool.
[Panel 3]
[Nils]
Oh, something to do
with Robin then?
[Bell]
No!
Well, yes.
Sort of.
That's not it.
It's Elizabeth.
[Nils]
Good lord, what's SHE done?
[Bell]
Nothing! It's what I'VE done.
[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Woman, talk straight
or I may have to use
you as a killer robot
practice dummy.
[Bell]
I always told
Elizabeth I'd
never buy a
lottery ticket.
And then Robin went on and on
about how pointless they were,
so I bought one just to annoy him.
And now it's won.
It's EMBARRASSING!
What am I going to tell
him? And Elizabeth?
I was hoping to be eaten by a
god or something and not have to.
