Transcript For Strip 1850
Panel 1Diana, Dong, The Assistant, and the Mechanic are looking up at an image on a large monitor. The image is of a small electronic doodad being held by a pair of tweezers, vastly enlarged.
Caption: Two hours later:
Diana: That's it?
Assistant: Its size is not impressive. Its sophistication is, however. State-of-the-art.
Panel 2
Reverse view to show the characters looking up at the monitor. We can see the nieces behind them. Diana has a cast on her right arm.
Mechanic: I gotta hand it to deClayre, when she bugs someone, she doesn't go cheap.
Diana: Am I supposed to feel privileged?
Mechanic: If I knew someone paid 50 Moebits just to track my movements, I'd feel validated, at least.
Panel 3
Same characters, different angle.
Diana: Fifty Moebits! What are you going to do with it?
Mechanic: Study it, make some improvements, and sell the crap out of copies.
Mechanic: Then, sell gizmos that can detect 'em more easily.
Panel 4
Same characters, different angle. The Mechanic is laughing, Dong is rolling his eyes.
Diana: But then someone will get hold of one of your detectors, and engineer a better tracker.
Mechanic: Ha-ha! Then we'll one-up on 'em again! It's a game that never ends! I love it!
