Episode Notes

Can you imagine the amount of paperwork involved in such a technical malfunction? They never show that in films. I bet it would lead to some rather serious budget cuts too, if not the complete withdrawal of funding.

Transcript

Panel 1: Spacedude 1 is standing on a platform inside a pod-like structure which has cables and pipes coming out of it. He is holding a walkie-talkie radio. Spacedude 2 is standing at a computer console.
Spacedude 1:
Are you sure this transporter is safer?
Spacedude 2:
It's been tested in the lab. Get ready to be beamed to the bio lab garden.
Panel 2: Spacedude 1 is now surrounded by lush vegetation and flowers, there is white cat (Captain Slog's cat, Fluffy), trying to climbing up his leg.
