Original Commentary

And here they are, talking about what to get for lunch. If anyone says You Say it First is an action-packed comic, I believe I proved them wrong. If I showed thought bubbles regularly, Brisbane's, in the last panel, would be "It's still a step up from my official title of 'Lackey'". But we very rarely use thought bubbles and it just seemed wrong to let everyone inside his head just for the sake of a punchline - Terrence

Modern Commentary
"In late, out early" is the maxim of storytelling. Show the most interesting bits and cut out the parts that don't add to the story.

I had a tendency to show the entirety of a conversation. I think we should have cut this comic. Perhaps I needed a little more time to edit the first conversation between Patrick and Kimberly - Terrence
