The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
View of The Little Prince from space: a small planetoid surrounded by a not-quite-transparent airskin five times its diameter.
Caption: The Little Prince, home of Tobikuma Kobayashi
Electronic voice: Call from Sv Robert Guzmán. Shall I put him through?
Tobi (from the planetoid): Yes, Claude, please connect him.
Panel 2
Establishing shot of Tobikuma 'Tobi' Kobayashi in his office, seated at a desk. The décor is ultra-modern, although the desk is covered with papers, small gadgets, other detritus, along with the usual keyboard and holoscreen. He's dressed in his usual casual clothes, Hawaiian print shirt and cotton trousers. If we can see his feet, they're wearing sandals. He's leaning back in his executive-style chair. His t-comm is in his occipital implant ('Ock') so it appears he's talking to the air.
Tobi: Tobi here. What may I do you for, Bert?
Bert (filtered): {chuckle} How would you like to mount a rescue mission?
Panel 3
Medium close-up of Tobi, grinning.
Tobi: Again. Like for real?
Tobi: I hope it is a beautiful damsel in distress.
Bert (filtered): Actually, it is a damsel in distress.
Panel 4
Same shot, but now Tobi looks stunned.
Bert (filtered): Though 'beautiful' might be a stretch, depending on your tastes.
Bert (filtered): She's a Neanderthal, Tobi.
