Panel 1: In Casey's bedroom, Marie sits on the bed, staring into space. Barbara
waves a hand in front of her face; she doesn't respond. Casey has taken
out his cell phone.
Barbara: Is she actually catatonic?
Casey: I'll call Rahim.
Barbara: No!
Panel 2: Barbara stands up and faces Casey.
Barbara: He'll get her stuck in a psych ward. No one should ever have to...I mean...
Panel 3:
Barbara: Last year, she was all right the next day, wasn't she? Wait until tomorrow.
Casey: But...look at her. This is wrong.
Panel 4:
Barbara: And right and wrong are as nothing to you, O mighty prince of darkness.
Casey [pinches his forehead]: Barbara...
Alt-Text: The mighty prince of darkness does sort of have a point, though.
