Comic Transcript
STEVE: I do believe I’ve worn out my welcome. A pity, since I haven’t even arrived. Still, I always think it’s better to leave before the lobotomy —
ALICE: Stop!
STEVE: Sorry my dear, but I —
ALICE: You can’t leave!
STEVE: Alice… dear Alice… can’t you see that this can never be? We come from different worlds, you and I…
STEVE: If things were different — if you weren’t colluding with others to do something unpleasant to me, if I weren’t a paperclip — who knows? But we must remain strong… and silent… and apart.
STEVE: Cheerio.
(ALICE falls to teh ground with a “WHUMP”)
VIKTOR SCHRECK: Are you all right?
ALICE: Swoon.
