By Brad J. Guigar

Panel 1:
(Lightning Lady stands at the doorway, hands on hips, addressing Angus, who looks shocked and hesitant.)
Lightning Lady: "Don't just stand there, impersonating a guppy... Invite me in!"
Angus: "I... I..."

Panel 2:
(Lightning Lady confidently steps inside while Angus still looks uncertain.)
Lightning Lady: "Don't be so dramatic. I was in the neighborhood, so I dropped by..."

Panel 3:
(A voice calls from inside the apartment. Angus turns toward it, while Lightning Lady looks on.)
Voice from inside: "Angus, sweetie... Your breakfast is getting cold!"

Panel 4:
(Lightning Lady looks furious, her mask reflecting her anger.)
Lightning Lady: "You bastard. All this time you said you were OK with us taking things slow..."

Panel 5:
Voice from inside: "Just tell her you're sorry for getting carried away, and promise it won’t happen again!"
(Sound effect as Angus slaps his forehead: smak)

Panel 6:
(Lightning Lady storms toward the source of the voice, determined.)
Lightning Lady: "That does it! I think I’d like to meet this bimbo! Let’s see how she compares to me!"

Panel 7:
(The "other woman" is revealed to be an alternate-universe version of Lightning Lady, wearing a casual oversized t-shirt that reads: "Between the covers is where the magic happens." She looks at Lightning Lady with mild amusement. Angus stands between them, looking awkward.)
Lightning Lady: "OK... You have a type."
