#564: Crossbows explain
[Cueball is pulling a crossbow out of a desk.]
Cueball: Why do you have a crossbow in your desk?
Megan (off-screen): You don’t?
[Pan to Megan who looks towards Cueball who is off-screen to the left.]
Cueball (off-screen): No—why would—
Megan: You are studying the consequences of Higgs excitation, aren’t you?
Megan: Like the rest of the lab?
[Cueball, now carying Megan’s crossbow joins her as the panel extends to include another Cueball-like guy to her right, he also carries a crossbow.]
Cueball: Yes, but why—
Guy: Maybe he’s slow with the math.
Megan: Well, he has until Tuesday.
Guy: Poor guy.
