Transcript For Strip 2025
Panel 1On a green world, five figures are harvesting carrots and tubers from a large garden. Two of them are standing close together, and one of that pair is speaking to the other.
Caption: A new settlement on Nyumbani, in the galaxy NGC 4438.
Figure 1 (Sandra): Sixteen seasons here and I still can't figure it out.
Figure 2 (Tom): Figure what out, Sandra?
Panel 2
Sandra indicates another figure, a female, pulling tubers out of the ground several meters away.
Sandra: That gynoid, 'Melissa.'
Sandra: It doesn't even need to eat food, like we do.
Sandra: Why is it out here harvestin' taters?
Panel 3
Medium shot of Melissa, pulling potatoes. She is side-glancing towards Tom and Sandra. Her bemused look indicates she can hear them.
Tom (OP): She said her skin absorbs energy directly from the sun, so outdoor work suits her.
Sandra (OP): Whoop-de-doo. I'll bet it uses more energy workin' than it gets soakin' up sunshine.
Panel 4
Tom is squatting while extracting some carrots with a spade, while Sandra stands by, holding a basket almost full of same.
Tom: Maybe so. We all got our reasons for being here, and it's impolite to pry.
Sandra: Tom, I came here to get away from all the technology back home. It poisons th' soul.
Sandra: And now it's followed me here.
