Transcript

Panel 1

Steve is sitting on a bench. Behind the bench, on the wall, it says "Steve woz ere".
Steve: "Oh no! Held prisoner inside our own washing machine by aliens intent on stealing all our left socks for purposes unknown- I don't think there is any way out of this one Beaver..."
"Oh boy! Exposition" is in a box pointing at Steve's speech bubble.
Beaver: "But wait! I have an ingenious plan!"

Panel 2

Beaver: "Here it is: whisper! Whisper! Whisper!"
Steve: "Oh! It is a scheme so cunning in its intricacy that it cannot possibly fail!"

Panel 3

[So...]
Beaver: "COUGH! COUGH! Oh ugh, I am going to be SICK!"
Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster: "Oh gross! And I bet it'll be me that has to clean it up too!"

Panel 4

Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster OOOOZE!s in carrying a ray gun and a bucket.
Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster: "Oh! Please evacuate the contents of your multi-cellular digestive sac into this bucket!"
Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster: "Wait... Where is the green one...?"
Beaver: "Bleurgh etc."

Panel 5

Steve SUPRISE ATTACK!s the slime monster while shouting "YAAA!"
Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster: "Oh! Ow! No fair!"
Steve SPLODGE!s into the slime monster, bursting his membrane open.

Panel 6

Beaver: "Great work Steve! Now let's get out of here!"
Steve is standing on the puddle of what once was a three-eyed slime monster.
Steve: "Ew- Cytoplasm!"
Puddle of Three-eyed Gelatinous Slime-Monster: "My membranes!"
[To be contd.]

Fun Facts

• Steve's intelligence is growing... Could this be a foreshadow? Maybe, maybe not!
• Steve has a penchant for petty vandalism.
• Turns out the aliens are very tidy clean people (if you can call them people... they are also very squeamish it seems). It may have something to do with being in a washing machine.
