Panel 1: Marvin & Judy are standing in their front door, waving goodbye. Mal is in the front yard, carrying the triple crossbow, waving back. Next to him, Panda is sheepishly but pointedly avoiding Sally's gaze, walking in the opposite direction of the door. Sally walks next to Panda, looking at him with a mischievous grin and suppressing a laugh.

Dear: (tiny cursive) well-wishes and good-byes

Marvin: ...so you go west about a quarter mile into the swamp, and you'll come to the Interdimensional Nexus. You can't miss it. If you run across a muck-encrusted mockery of the human form, that's just Ted. Don't worry, he's harmless.*

Sally: *snerk*

Caption: * see Webcomics Nonillustrated: 'He's One Bad Mossy Figure'

Panel 2: Sally, Panda,and Mal are seen in the distance walking through the swamp. Unnoticed by them, in the foreground, a trunk-nosed muck-encrusted mockery of a man plays cards with a bipedal alligator smoking a cigar and a humanoid possum wearing a referee shirt.

Caption: about an eighth of a mile later...

Sally: I can't believe you bought that crossbow anyway.

Mal: It's just a precautionary measure. I won't be firing it everyday. If it makes you feel better, I'll put it in one of those locked fire boxes that say, 'in case of zombie apocalypse, break glass'

Sally: It doesn't sound very useful. What if the zombies don't care that you've shot crossbow bolts into them?

Mal: That's why I want to buy a flamethrower, and put it in another locked box that says 'In Case of Lack of Fire, Break Glass' but that's more like a stretch goal.

Sally: oh, hell no.

Mal: This'll tide me over in the meantime.

Panda: so, um, good trip, right?

Sally: Yes, Fine, Panda. I admit it, I had fun, even if you did shanghai me into it.

Sally: I should've gotten the recipe for those cookies. I thought maybe they had raisins in them, but it didn't taste like normal raisins. It was more, I don't know...

Panel 3: Closer shot of Panda, Sally, and Mal walking. Mal is grinning widely with his mouth open. Sally is wide-eyed, her hands to her mouth in shock.

Mal: ...tangy?

Sally: No! You don't mean...it couldn't!

Mal: (singsong) Yooouu'llllll Nevvverr Know for Sure.......
