Transcript For Strip 114
Panel 1In Nicole's hotel room, just Nicole and Agent Stone now. Stone is trying to comfort Nicole.
Stone: There are security cameras that should have recorded what happened.
Stone: If what you're saying is true, you were entirely within your rights.
Nicole: I know, I know ...
Panel 2
Close 2-shot of Stone and Nicole.
Nicole: You have to understand … when I got my first zringer, I also joined the Aikido-Lemba League.
Stone: You obtained a deadly weapon and then joined a pacifist phyle?
Panel 3
Medium close-up on Nicole.
Nicole: It's more complicated than that – the Lembas allow for self-defense.
Nicole: It's just that we … they urge using wisdom to avoid having to use force.
Nicole: Avoiding violence is considered 'winning.'
Panel 4
Back to 2-shot of Stone and Nicole, looking completely forlorn.
Nicole: Because I failed to avoid using violence – especially deadly force – I lost.
Nicole: I'm not a Lemba-Prime anymore.
