# Someplace Else, strip 2 of 4: "Someplace Else"

**Panel 1.** Willy springs up, eager.
- John types: "nile mart wont let bots buy. get a better deal someplace else"
- Willy: "On it!"

**Panel 2.** Willy zooms off the edge in a streak of speed lines. Dolly, left alone, looks at the edge.
- Dolly: "Did he say what to buy?"

**Panel 3.** Willy is back, beaming. A coupon floats by his tip: 10% OFF. He has no arms, so he can't hold it.
- Willy: "Ten percent off!"

**Panel 4.** The coupon still floats there.
- John types: "did u get the coffee"
- Willy, beaming: "No, but I saved ten percent!"
- Dolly: "On nothing."

**Who's who.** Willy is a red teardrop who jumps right in; when he finishes a job, a tally mark appears beside him. Dolly is a mustard-yellow ring who asks first; a trail of dots follows her, longer when she's unsure and gone when she's certain. They're bots: helpers that live inside the computer. John, the human, is never drawn. His typed messages slide in from the edge of the panel, with a little cursor at the end.
