I think that's just what they call it when they stick ya on a raft and shove you out onto the river. Still, that's a retirement!!

Ah shucks, I don't think ~~I'm~~ it's worthy of using up an extra strength!

Maybe there's an island out there of old guys, chilling and reading old newspapers.

Nah, don't be ridiculous. Just for that, you're getting the extra strength. Doctor's orders. Where are you at? I'll make a house call.

Sharing old Mary Worth and Far Side comics and discussing the Yankees (that's a sports team, right??), the dream of sunsetting in peace and quiet...

I'm all the way back at Whitney! Resituating the stage is not making these old decrepit muscles feel much better.

Wearing nice cozy house slippers. Sounds like the life, to be honest.

All right, well then you definitely could use some ibuprofen. I'll leave shortly. It'll be a good excuse to see you on the clock.

One day we'll reach the end of our usefulness and get to read about WWII artillery and bridge games like God intended.

That's quite a trek for an ibuprofen, somebody will have to make sure you take a break once you get here!

Heck yeah, I wanna live that Price Is Right watching life.

It's only proper. Wouldn't want to fall asleep on the road.

If one day a La-Z-Boy shows up at the Depot, I'll know the prophecies are true. It is possible.

Knowing I get to see you almost healed all my sleep injuries. Then I tried to turn my head and got into trouble again. I'm living too fast and wild over here!!

And I will dream of that day. We could even get crazy—do a jigsaw puzzle or two.

Oof, I'll bring you one of those rice bags you can heat up, too. That ought to help.

Jigsaw puzzles... after dark. They're harder without lights but we're conserving resources over here!!

I promise this wasn't all a ploy to get you to come to me.

I hope an optometrist survived, 'cause we're gonna need bifocals for this.

If it were anyone else, I'd think they were lying, but you have an honest face.

Until we go blind and have to jigsaw puzzle by touch. My embroidery might suffer, though.

That's what makes me such a good actor! (Except for the part where if I'm not in character my face turns red as a radish, but you can't see me right now! Maybe I look like a blond beet!!)

Maybe you can learn to embroider your scripts in braille.

Well, I'd bet you'd be the cutest blond beet I ever did see, so don't worry about it!

And when the world tries to make Time Enough at Last a reality, guess who'll have an ace up his sleeve and unexpectedly know braille!

Think I'll try and be a much cuter vegetable by the time you get here.

Add it to your list of surprise talents! You would've been a hit on Survivor!

What's cuter than beets? You gonna be a cherry tomato? Radish?

Once I got over my sunburns and aversion to scheming maybe!!

Hmmm, bell peppers can be cute. Or maybe a surprisingly spicy chili pepper??

Maybe the greatest scheme is to not scheme at all! Keeps 'em guessing!

Oooooh, I like it. And what would I be?

Why would a man sew everyone matching jackets if he wasn't up to something nefarious??

Hmmmm, your hair might suggest broccoli, but everything else suggests you're pretty darn corny.

Maybe he's trying to hint at their lack of taste in jackets?

I love it. A very utilitarian vegetable. It's perfect.

Psychological warfare. That sounds like EXACTLY his style.

Not STRICTLY utilitarian, though. Corn's versatile!! It's got layers!!

You know, you'd make a perfect supervillain because nobody would ever suspect you.

And it can be made into chips! Who doesn't love chips?

Living a double life like that sounds downright exhausting, though! How am I supposed to get up for work in the morning if I'm spending all night plotting downfalls??

And high-fructose corn syrup!! (I panicked and couldn't remember anything else with corn.)

That's what henchmen are for! Or those little yellow Minion guys.

Mexican street corn is pretty good.

Oh Lord, now there's managing involved?? This dream of supervillainy is getting more and more complex!!

I hear it goes great with some cute chili peppers.

You're right, better to just stay non-evil. Sounds like less work.

I like the way you think. I'll be there as fast as I can, don't hurt yourself more in the meantime.

I'll be sitting VERY still and not making any sudden movements in case I COMPLETELY fall apart before you get here!!
