#1769: Never Seen Star Wars explain
[White Hat is facing Cueball while talking to him.]
White Hat: You know the scene on the Death Star where–
Cueball: Nah, I’ve never seen Star Wars.
[Close-up of White Hat in a smaller panel.]
White Hat: WHAT.
[White Hat and Cueball are still facing each other.]
White Hat: …How?!
Cueball: Uh, it was easy?
Cueball: It was literally the default option.
[Close up of Cueball. White Hat is speaking off-panel.]
White Hat: But… How did you–
Cueball: Not doing things is my superpower. I’m not doing an infinite number of things as we speak!
[White Hat and Cueball are still facing each other.]
White Hat: We have to watch it.
Cueball: Nah, I’m good.
[White Hat has turned away from Cueball and has his hands to his mouth to shout to people off-panel. Cueball has likewise turned away as he walks away and is speaking back over his shoulder.]
White Hat: Hey everyone! This guy’s never seen Star Wars!
Cueball: Listen, I gotta go.
[A small caption above the single panel.]
Later…
[Ponytail is looking down at her phone in her left hand while Cueball is facing her.]
Ponytail: Wait, there’s a new Star Wars?
Cueball: Oh, I’ve nev–
Cueball: …yeah! Excited for it! Big fan.
[Ponytail holds her phone to her side, transferred to her right hand, as she and Cueball face each other.]
Ponytail: What’d you think of the last one?
Cueball: Uh… That Darth Vader, man.
Cueball: Sure does love eating Jedi.
[Ponytail and Cueball continue facing each other.]
Ponytail: Haha, he sure does!
Cueball (thinking): Phew.
Ponytail (thinking): Phew.
