The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Large panel, the Novo Argo soars through a dramatic cloudscape, with towering cumulus-type forms, and sunbeams streaming down from a partly-cloudy upper-sky.
Caption: The next several days were spent in wonder, as Reggie and Babbette soared through the ever-changing Venusian cloudscape.
Caption: Without really planning to, the happy couple sailed toward the equator as they looked for life.
Panel 2
In the foreground, we see something that looks like a diffuse patch of soda-pop fizz, drifting through the air. In the background we see the silhouette of the yacht
Babbette (from the yacht): Look there! Are those the buoyant plants Dr. Harmon mentioned?
Reggie: Most likely.

Panel 3
Medium-full shot of Babbette and Reggie in the yacht's cockpit. Reggie is kicked back in the pilot's seat (hands not on wheel), while Babbette scans the clouds with some hi-tech binoculars
Babbette: Well, damn. Here's something you don't see every day.

Panel 4
Showing the view through Babbette's binocs. We see a large patch of floating fizz, and three or four creatures crawling around on the patch. The creatures have long, spindly legs like a spider, but with a very fine fish-shaped tail and something that looks like a deflated balloon on their backs.
Reggie (OP): Okay, Harmon didn't say anything about these – air spiders.
Babbette (OP): What do you think that doodad is on their backs?

Panel 5
2-Shot of Reggie and Babbette, now Reggie is looking through the Binocs.
Reggie: Probably flotation bladders. Right now, they're empty, making them heavier than air.
Reggie: That might make it easier for them to crawl around on the plants.

Panel 6
Same shot, pulled back a little. Reggie is handing the binocs back to Babbette.
Babbette: Hey, how 'bout we find Harmon and tell him about these air spiders?
Reggie: Yeah.
Reggie: Helmsman, set a course to the transponder on Dr. Harmon's craft.
Helmsman's voice (filtered): Aye-aye, Captain.
