The Clan of the Poes (Page 140)

//Panel 1//
Allan:
I won’t!
Uncle:
Wait! Is there something about Margot that’s lacking!
Don’t you understand that I’m doing this out of concern for you, who are about to become an orphan!
Margot’s mother:
Dear…
//Panel 2//
SFX:
SLAM!
Uncle:
Allan—you ungrateful son!
Margot’s mother:
That won’t do. Right now you should be soothing him…
//Panel 3/
Margot:
Why not simmer down? Father’s made up his mind, you know.
Allan:
Margot!
//Panel 4//
Allan:
You ought to say something, too!
You like Dr. Clifford, don’t you?
Margot:
HA HA HA!
What an idiot!
The doctor has a fiancée, didn’t you know?
//Panel 6//
Margot:
I did like him. It’s true. He kissed me three times.
I wouldn’t waste a thought on a little brat like you.
//Panel 7//
Margot:
But I’ll be kind to you, seeing as you’re about to become a rich, pitiable orphan.
