Hard Times
PANEL ONE
The fountain outside the Gape.
The two women are chatting.
JENNY
I give you a hard time, but we’re actually trying to save some money these days.
You know…with the way things have been going…
STACY
Oh, god! I know what you mean.
PANEL TWO
STACY
Now, I haven’t told this to anyone that MATTERS, so don’t say ANYthing to ANYone, but…
…Virgil quit his job.
JENNY
Oh my god!
PANEL THREE
STACY
I know! Now, he’s a COOK at a restaurant.
And I HAD to get this job because he makes, like, NO money!
JENNY
Oh my god, Stacy!
STACY
So I feel you on the whole NEEDING TO SAVE MONEY thing.
PANEL FOUR
Jenny has pity and a little bit of disgust on her face.
JENNY
Oh, Stacy. Darren and I…
…I was going to say that we’re thinking of getting married in PARIS this summer. We needed to save up money for THAT!
PANEL FIVE
Stacy is trying to maintain composure.
STACY
Oh.
