Transcript For Strip 1822
Panel 1They pause at the entrance to Diana's quarters.
Lorelei: If you like, I can have my personal neuro-tech take a look at you.
Diana: Uh, thanks but I'll just take this up with the tech who installed this one.
Caption: That was Monty, and I never trusted anyone else with my brain-meats.
Panel 2
Cut to futuristic bathroom. Diana is nude, walking through a large membrane – a Clean Screen.
Caption: Lorelei was also a fan of water-bathing, and I luxuriated in that while I stayed at her mansion.
Caption: But my new friends were waiting for me and walking through a Clean Screen was a much faster way of getting not just my hair-oil and ridiculous make-up off, but also the stink of sweating through that encounter with the legendary Sergio Cooper.
Panel 3
In her bedroom, Diana is standing in front of a full-length holo-mirror as she zips up her anysuit.
Caption: The Redes is full of jokes about Cooper's physical and mental prowess.
Caption: 'When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Sergio Cooper.'
Caption: 'Sergio Cooper once walked away from a fight with two broken ribs and a dislocated arm. He hasn't given them back yet.'
Panel 4
Same shot, only now the Anysuit is generating street clothing.
Caption: 'Sergio Cooper counted to infinity. Twice.'
Caption: 'Sergio Cooper can unscramble an egg.'
Caption: 'The only time Sergio Cooper was wrong was when he thought he'd made a mistake.'
Caption: 'Sergio Cooper can make you sweat inside a temperature-controlled Anysuit.'
Caption: That last one was mine. It's not a joke, it's a fact.
