Panel 1: ANGELA is looking down the corridor toward a door with the letters WC on them. She is raising one eyebrow. A speech bubble is coming out of the door…

1 VOICE:
AUGH! WE’RE OUT OF TOILET PAPER AGAIN!

Panel 2: ANGELA leans toward the door hesitantly.

1 ANGELA:
UH…HELLO? DO YOU NEED SOME HELP?

Panel 3:Quiet in the hallway. ANGELA stands at the door, a bit chagrined, a bit uncertain.

Panel 4: The door is open, to the inside of the bathroom, and a young boy has his head stuck out of it. He is regarding ANGELA very critically. This is JONAH SPARKS.

Panel 6:ANGELA and JONAH face off again, JONAH looking up at her, still critically.

IN ANCIENT TIMES, LITTLE BOYS WERE SACRIFICED TO DARK GODS.

FOR GOOD LUCK.

Panel 8: JONAH is standing in the open door, hand extended toward ANGELA. He is grinning madly. ANGELA is looking at his empty hand with revulsion.

I'M JONAH.

2 ANGELA:
YOU DIDN'T WASH.

3 JONAH:
IT'S OKAY. I DIDN'T WIPE.
