Chapter 17 | Page 7: Built to Match (Patreon)

Today’s page takes us back into Dr. Muskiday’s laboratory, where our favorite mad scientist triumphantly unveils his new invention. It's the kind of breakthrough that clearly puts him on track to dominate Evil Inc’s upcoming Mad Science Fair. But before we can find out what it is, he has to find out why this holo-clone girlfriend — who was built to match his every whim — is dressed like an extra in an anime!

This is a much closer look at the relationship between Musky and his pre-programmed Pygmalion. More to come!

Transcript

Narration: Meanwhile, in Dr. Muskiday’s laboratory…

Dr. Muskiday: Eureka!

Holo-Clone Miss Match: Musky, darling, what is it?

Dr. Muskiday: I’ve done it! I’ve finally done it!

Holo-Clone Miss Match: And they said a self-lubricating universe was impossible! When do we depart?

Dr. Muskiday: No… not that.

Dr. Muskiday: THIS!

Holo-Clone Miss Match: Perfume??

Dr. Muskiday: No… with THIS I shall stand out unmistakably as the superior participant in Evil Inc’s Mad Science Fair.

Holo-Clone Miss Match: Ohhhhh!

Holo-Clone Miss Match: It’s DEODORANT!

Dr. Muskiday: Waitaminit. Why are you dressed like that??

Holo-Clone Miss Match: Silly. You rewrote my clothing algorithm to match our schedule.

Holo-Clone Miss Match: It’s Tuesday. We’re watching anime and playing strip Sudoku.

Dr. Muskiday: True, but I was thinking maybe we’d watch Star Trek instead.

Holo-Clone Miss Match: Oh! No problem. [Her uniform changes to a skirt worn in “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds”]

Dr. Muskiday: Original series

Holo-Clone Miss Match (now zapped into a “Star Trek: The Original Series” micro-miniskirt): Heh! I’m just glad it wasn’t Donald Duck Night!
