@ : "Honey, if anything happened to you in the dungeon, I could not go on. If you sign this life insurance policy, at least I will be able to feed myself and our goldfish."

@ : "Don't worry my dear, nothing will happen to me. I will sign, if it will make you feel better."

@ : "As I was saying... The dungeon is a dangerous place. Accidents can happen, especially if I get the 50% of that money."

@ : "Our deal was 40%."

@ : "Fine. Just make sure he signs the policy."

I figured out the plot from the first panel. Subtle, but not subtle enough for my eagle eyes!

Panel 1 would almost have been enough but you do need panel 3 for closure. Well done.

I like the salesman in the closet...

Why do the Dudleys keep so many mimics in the living room? The salesman in the closet is a nice touch.
#5 Anonymous Wed, 4 Nov 2009 12:49:20
mimics? heck, why are they keeping krakens?
#6 SmashFan2005 Wed, 4 Nov 2009 16:22:40
@#5: Not Kraken's.... Goldfish.

Salesman? Considering the location of @ and @ in the third panel, I would assume otherwise....

She's gonna get struck by lightning if he ever ascends.
