Transcript For Strip 1653
Panel 1Eithne is squatting near a bulkhead which has had a panel removed. She's doing something with the components inside the bulkhead. There's a small toolkit on the deck next to her
Eithne (thought): While I'm waiting for those turpsiators I might as well see how I can improve our shield efficiency.
Eithne (thought): The transtator coupling should be in here somewhere ...
Panel 2
Now she's on her back, her head and shoulders inserted into the bulkhead space, working, struggling.
Eithne: ENH! Damn thing's stuck!
Eithne: C'mon, TURN!
Eithne: I can't get leverage. Who designed this stupid fucking arrangement, anyway?
Panel 3

Goon: Probably some neck-bearded geek from Frolix XIII.
Goon: But who am I to judge?
