Panel One: Ian’s attending a call at his work. Boss: I’m going to have the team rotate through being in charge while I’m away, we’re starting with Ian. Ian (Looking very confused): …you’re starting with what? Panel Two: Boss talking to a child Ian drawing with crayons. Narrator: …inside Ian’s mind Boss: Hey there big guy! Would you like to manage the team while I’m away? Ian: Uhh…OK. Can I drink chocolate milk? Boss: Sure big guy, you’re going to be in charge! Ian: Uhm OK. I like chocolate milk. Panel Three: Same scene Boss: Good for you buddy! And what do you do if the regional administrator calls? Ian: Um. Use the green crayon?

Panel One - Ian at a bagel shop. Cashier - I just need to ask again… …you sure you want to order a chocolate chip bagel with bacon, egg, and cheddar? Panel Two - Focus on Ian, who appears angry. Ian - It’s just my breakfast, not my last meal. Are you usually a hostage negotiator during the week and just part time here? What is happening right now? Panel Three - Same scene as panel one. Ian looks defeated. Ian - OK - Maybe it’s also a cry for help, but unless you also sell career advice; Order up my good man. And make sure that coffee’s hot because I’m not washing this bagel down with my tears.
