The Transcript For This Page

Strip 30
Panel 1
Larger panel, leave room for EFT logo.
The Cererean Council of War is gathered around a large, roundish poker table. Present are Babbette (the elder), The Rev. Reginald King, Bert, Ernie, Sam, Davey, Neil, Cathy, Vinnie, Arthur, Rosemarie, and Ian Tayler.

The Rev. King should look like Richard B. Boddie

Neil should resemble L. Neil Smith.
Cathy looks about 30, is rail-thin with light skin and reddish hair, but somewhat busty and has a very matter-of-fact attitude.

Vinnie is based on the newspaper columnist Vin Suprynowicz.
Escept that instead of glasses he has artificial/electonic eye-balls

Arthur is a strapping, rock-star handsome fellow. You could easily imagine him playing Batman in a movie.

Rosemarie is a small-but mighty woman of Italian extraction. Shoulder-length wavy black hair, looks about 35.

Ian Tayler is one of the few heavy-set people you see on Ceres (not fat so much as stocky). Medium height, somewhat baby-faced with a cleft chin, thin brown hair, looks about 30. He also has artificial eyes but they’re not so obvious as Vinnie’s. (This sort of thing is as common among Cerereans as eye-glasses are in our culture).

Everyone is looking grim. Neil is speaking.

Caption box: The Cererean Council of War:

Neil: We should just shove them out an air-lock.

Ian: Yeah.

Panel 2
Two-shot of Davey, sitting next to Vinnie.

Davey: Well sure, Neil, that might make us feel good for the moment, but there are lots more revenooers where they came from.
Vinnie: And they won’t come un-armed next time.

Panel 3
Cathy and Neil

Cathy: I wonder if we can bribe them to just go away.

Neil: Why can’t we shove them out an air-lock?


Panel 4
Babbette and Arthur

Babbette: I don’t think we can bribe them, Cathy. My guess is we might turn this woman – she looks like she doesn’t like her job much – but this Caillard character is dedicated.

Arthur: And even if we manage to turn them both, their bosses will just send more agents anyway, like Vinnie said.


Panel 5
Rosemarie and Sam

Rosemarie: We need to find out more about these people, and their plans, and what our real options are.

Sam: That means stalling them for a few days. Anyone got any ideas?

Panel 6
Babbette looking at the Rev. King seated next to her.

Babbette: Well, reverend, I told ‘em they’ll have an audience with our Head of State tomorrow.

King: Head of State? You gotta be kidding. The closest thing we have to a Head of State around here is…

Panel 7
Larger panel. Everyone except Neil is looking at Rev. King, who looks cornered. Neil has his arms crossed and is looking at the ceiling.

King: Oh. Yeah.

Neil: I still say we should shove ‘em out an airlock.
