The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
At the cafe, medium shot of Merry and Pablo at the table. The waitress is serving them slices of pie.
Pablo: Merry, we humans have a dirty little secret.
Pablo: To a degree, we are pack animals – maybe even herd animals – by nature.
Panel 2
Flash-back scene, illustrating Pablo's words: a half-dozen neolithic-type, brown-skinned men are fighting a large bear. One of the men is clearly directing the others.
Caption (Pablo): 'At one time, this allowed us to take down larger animals that threatened us or that we needed for food.
Caption: 'The down side is that the pack mentality is inconsistent with individual liberty.'
Panel 3
Back to the present. Pablo waves his pie fork with a flourish as he speaks.
Pablo: Every pack has to have a leader and it has to have followers.
Pablo: Congratulations, Merry, you are now the leader of the pack.

Panel 4
Focus on Merry, who looks alarmed.
Merry: No! No Way! I don't want to be a leader or a follower, for that matter!
Merry: I don't want that power over anyone!
