#914: Ice explain
[Megan is setting up a party. She is standing with a bottle in one hand looking at a snack table in front of her. Beret Guy stands behind her with both arms raised. Above and behind them there is a big banner with gray text.]
Megan: Everything’s ready…
Megan: Except we’re out of ice.
Beret Guy: I’ll get some!
Banner: Party!
[Beret Guy is walking down the street past a building with a store window and sign. He is carrying a large bag of ice over his shoulder. Danish is standing on the sidewalk up against the brick wall and calls to him.]
Danish: Hey sexy. Where’re you headed with all that ice?
Beret Guy: A party!
Danish: There’s a better party up at my place.
Beret Guy: But I—
Danish: C’mon, one drink.
Sign: Save Mart
Bag: Ice
[Zoom in on Beret Guy who rubs his eyes groggily, small bubbles floating up from his head. A caption is written above the image in a box that breaks the top frame of this panel:]

Beret Guy: …Ugh… Where am I?
Beret Guy: I was supposed to—
Beret Guy: —Where’s all my ice!?

Beret Guy: AAAAAAA
