Original Commentary

This is one of those comics where Isabel told me a script, I wrote it down, and ended up with something totally different than what she had originally intended. Fortunately, she rewrote it. In my version, Brisbane was wishing he had thought of kicking the pet out of his room, because I missed Kimberly's line in the third panel. It works considerably better in the version we have up now - Terrence

Modern Commentary
I mean, would Brisbane think about crawling into Kimberly's bed when she's asleep? He's hesitant about how a relationship can go wrong when his entire life is dependant on Kimberly and her family. He's also a strong believer in the formalities of relationships, and we'll see more of that later.

Kimberly is more likely to sneak into Brisbane's bed than vice versa. - Terrence
