Strip 22

Panel 1
Large panel, establishing shot of the café interior. We would be looking past the backs of Guy and Fiorella’s heads, perhaps at a slightly elevated angle. Six or eight tables, half of which have diners seated. Most of them ignore the two newcomers. To one side, a swinging door leading to the kitchen. To the other side, a glass door marked 'Water Bros. Office.' Near the center-rear, a cashier’s desk next to another glass door marked 'Rooms.' ( I recommend making this panel take up the left half of the strip, top-to-bottom, then stack the next two panels on the right side.)

Guy: *sigh* Here we go again…

Panel 2
Guy attempts another 'glide-walk' across the room to the cashier’s desk. He waves his arms awkwardly and bumps his toes against the ground, moving past the seated diners, who glance at him with some amusement.

Panel 3
Reaching the cashier’s desk, he has too much momentum. The cashier wordlessly holds out her palm across the desk to stop him. (Note: The cashier’s desk is counter-top high and its top has raised sides (about 8cm) around all the edges except for a meter-wide space where the cashier stands.)

Guy: Hoof!
