Transcript For Strip 173
Panel 1Seamus, Vanessa, and Nicole in the bistro. A waiter is bringing their main courses. Nicole is sitting there, agape. Vanessa is solemn.
Vanessa: Yes, I told you I used various bits of genetic material from 2400 anonymous donors.
Vanessa: I'm sorry, dear, but I lied.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Seamus and Vanessa, speaking to Nicole who is OP.
Seamus: Don't blame your mother. There were non-disclosure agreements involved.
Vanessa: Also, non-obligation agreements, severing any legal bonds between you and them.
Panel 3
Close-up of Vanessa. This is clearly difficult for her.
Vanessa: I – was having problems with the original project design. I couldn't produce a viable fetus.
Vanessa: Seamus suggested using entire chromosome sequences from selected donors, rather than trying to build your genome one exon at a time.
Panel 4
Nicole is visibly upset. Vanessa sadly sips her wine.
Nicole: You – you used entire chromosomes, not exons?
Nicole: I thought I was the worlds' first osmotic clone – now you tell me I'm a living fraud?
