Triangle and Robert #1351 Come on, Triangle, let's follow that gardeTHUMP / To the gardethump! / Wall. / We overdid it with the fog machines. / There's no such thing as too many fog maTHUMP
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1351
Triangle and Robert #1352 Triangle? / Yes? / Where am I? / Down. / Thanks. / You're welcome.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1352
Triangle and Robert #1353 The fog's even worse down here in this wherever-I-am. I'm effectively blinded. / That makes it time to stumble into a secret passage! I love this part! / Robert? Did you say "THUMP" again?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1353
Triangle and Robert #1354 Triangle! Can you still hear me? / No! / Okay, never mind. / Hey! / I'm sorry. / I need you to stay serious and act as a stabilizing force. / My glasses! I can't see without my glasses! / Robert, we don't even have eyes. / See? That's what I'm talking about.

Triangle and Robert #1355 Robert, I think we've taken this Scooby Doo thing as far as it'll... whoa... / Triangle? What is it? / I think it's the Dairy Sentry... only somehow reverted back to his inverted capital G form. / You mean our dog? / For all intents and purposes... yes. It's our dog. / Oh, for crying out $^&*.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1355
 
Triangle and Robert #1356 I didn't mean to! I don't even know how I did it! / You shouldn't have been fighting in the first place. / It's not her fault. It was mostly Robert's doing. / Robert turned the Dairy Sentry into an inverted capital G again? How? / It wasn't deliberate, but he made introducing a dog or dog-like character a narrative necessity. The Dairy Sentry's cursed form was the only one available. / It sounds more like your fault than his!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1356
Triangle and Robert #1357 You've ignored narrative necessity in the past. Why should Robert's plot idea suddenly make things happen? / Robert has a sort of attunement to the comic. He can guess what I will and won't bother drawing, and he knows which of my buttons to push to trigger subplots. / How recently did you make that up? / I don't know. It feels like it follows naturally from Robert's previous actions and abilities, though. Maybe he's been planning it. / Simpler hypothesis: You wanted the cute animal back in the strip.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1357
Triangle and Robert #1358 This is awkward. Uh... Robert fell down something. Go get help? / Rokay! / "[F]ell down something"? / There's still too much fog to be specific. / Do you think he remembers being the Dairy Sentry this time? / There's more potential for humor if we don't try to figure that out yet.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1358
Triangle and Robert #1359 Erf! / Hey! What are you doing here? / Arf arf! / Huh? / What was all that about? / Rust follow me already!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1359
Triangle and Robert #1360 What's going on here? / My partner fell down this... fell down. / I can't see what you're indicating. Why is there so much fog? / I... have no idea... but rest assured, we are investigating it? / I keep a number of long, sturdy ropes suspiciously nearby. I'll go get one, but remember: I'm watching you two.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1360
 
Triangle and Robert #1361 Hello? / The gardener's getting a rope. / Stall him. I think I found something. / We're not really investigating. / We're not investigating the monster. I think this is something different. / What is it? / I'm not positive yet. I turned on an exhaust fan and the fog's clearing. There's some kind of assembly line. I smell paint. / Hush, the gardener's coming back now.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1361
Triangle and Robert #1362 I've got rope. Where's the / Never mind. Something else came up. / There's a rampaging... cactus-... ...cactus-pig... in the... plumbing? Plumbing... and it's destroying everything with... uh... a giant cannon... that shoots... um... brake pads. / There is not. / Ah! So you deny it! / Get out of my way. / I'm not in your way.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1362
Triangle and Robert #1363 Move! I can't drop the rope to your partner with you standing there! / But... uh... hey, the fog's clearing! / So now I can see what he fell down... oh, no. / Well,you're not gonna catch me! / Huh? / Hold on, the gardener actually WAS up to something?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1363
Triangle and Robert #1364 What's down there? / It's a production line. I think it's for toys. / That doesn't sound criminal. / You haven't seen the things that I think were intended as toys. / Such as? / There are these action figures of Batman that squirt water from their udders. / Udders? / That's what it says on the package. I don't think they're authorized by either DC or the estate of Bob Kane. / Did you say Bob Crane?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1364
Triangle and Robert #1365 The "gardener" dropped the rope when he ran away. Do you want me to pull you up now? / Does Yogi Bear breathe fire? / Is that a sarcastic way of saying no? / No, I needed my memory refreshed. These toys down here make no sense. / They're bootlegs, Robert. The gardener must have been making them. We can pin the monster on him too, I bet. / Thus resolving the mystery without implicating Mr. Bellwither... but then Mr. Bellwither won't have scared everyone away for his diamond mine...
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1365
 
Triangle and Robert #1366 Are you coming or not? / I'm thinking. We need to scare everyone out of wanting the cave, since the monster obviously isn't working. / This paint isn't safe for toys... I think I can make the whole cave toxic! / But then it won't be mineable. / Too late, I've already set the timer. Pull me up quick. / Uh, what? / Rut?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1366
Triangle and Robert #1367 Drop the rope! We have an explosion to outrun! / Uh... uh... okay... / Help me pull! / Rokay! / Mickey's left hand was on the schwa and his other two hands were on the floor nearby, so I think we have about four minutes before the blast. Warn people as needed. / You're welcome.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1367
Triangle and Robert #1368 EVERYONE OUT OF THE CAVE! THERE'S BEEN AN ACCIDENT! / A few minutes later, outside: / I think we can assume the gardener previously fled, so everyone's accounted for. And now, the denouement. / The so-called "gardener" was using a secret workshop in the cave to make bootleg toys. Our first clue that something was wrong was when we noticed we were in a cave as opposed to somewhere with a garden or a lawn. Then, when we found the workshop full of bootleg toys and it made the gardener nervous, all the pieces came together.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1368
Triangle and Robert #1369 Obviously, the gardener summoned the monster from its nightmarish otherworldly crypt so no one would find his workshop. / Cornelius Bellwither! You are under arrest! / Huh? Why would you arrest Mr. Bellwither? / We read the strips where he hired you. Robert, Triangle, you're under arrest too. / Drat! We would have gotten away with it if it weren't for that meddling cartoonist! / Rinverted-Rapital-Gee!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1369
Triangle and Robert #1370 On the first count, that of conspiracy to tamper with evidence, I find the defendants not guilty! / Order! Order! Take that pill out of my courtroom. I find the defendants... / under the parsley and there they are? / Out! OUT! / Safe! / Are you the umpire? I mean judge? / Be quiet. / Wait, I'm not the judge? Oh, this is Arizona. I'm sorry. I'm also Prozac the Bear!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1370
 
Triangle and Robert #1371 I find the defendants guilty of all charges brought against them. Triangle you are sentenced to 4 years incarceration. Robert, 12 years. / To be frank, I'm expecting you to escape in some idiotic Catoonist-assisted fashion. Stay out of my state. / Yay! After we escape, Arizona will be one more state we're wanted in! / We're appealing. / Of course we are.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1371
Triangle and Robert #1372 Erf? / The plotline's basically over. You can change back now. / Yarf? / So you need a power source first. Not a problem. / Rurr. / Okay, a problem. / Hey, protagonists. When you're done appealing your conviction and/or escaping from prison, start building an experimental space plane filled with ham.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1372
Triangle and Robert #1373 You want us to launch ham into space? / Why do we need a second Starham? / Is that what this is about? We can make another Starham? / Obviously. / So we can change the inverted capital G back to the Dairy Sentry. / I suppose we have to. I'll miss him again. / Robert... he's not a dog. / I know. He's not a dog.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1373
Triangle and Robert #1374 Before the guards can stop them, the mighty ship which Triangle had spent days constructing is soaring into the heavens... towards outer space! / That's not your writing style. / Fantastic Four, volume one, issue one. / What happens next? / Cosmic rays. They'll give the ham superpowers and force us to crash-land. / We're going to end up dead of radiation poisoning, aren't we? / I lined the ham with lead. We'll be safe inside it. / Inside it? Just how much ham did you load this ship with? / Enough.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1374
Triangle and Robert #1375 I designed this vessel to carry a payload of no more than three hams, Robert. / How did you design this vessel in the first place? / Well, I don't know anything about rocketry, so we're flying with yeast. I didn't tell you because you would have found a reason to add too much, but you've found a way to screw the launch up anyway. / Three hams, Triangle? What were you thinking? And why didn't you warn me? / Would warning you have helped? / It wouldn't have hurt.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1375
 
Triangle and Robert #1376 So we're overloaded. What's the worst thing that can happen? / We survived launch, so not much. We just won't achieve orbit. / We can land safely? / In the south Atlantic as planned. / I guess there can't be a disastrous mishap every time. / Get therapy, Robert.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1376
Triangle and Robert #1377 As the vehicle descends bearing unfortunately nonirradiated ham... / Iceberg. / Are you trying to manufacture a crisis? / No. Iceberg. / Oh, poo. / The controls aren't responding! Of all the ocean, what are the odds we'd have chosen a splashdown point with an iceberg? / I'm just lucky.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1377
Triangle and Robert #1378 Robert, that's no iceberg. / Oh good, it's something silly? / No. It's bad. It's MSG. / Oh. It's plot. / Look at it[ It's growing as we speak! / So... we shouldn't speak? / It looks lightly packed. Crashing into it won't be immediately fatal, but then what?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1378
Triangle and Robert #1379 Are we... / I don't know. / Oh, hi / We're here again. / The MSG mind. / How did we get out of here last time? / I confused it into thinking we had an escape route and used that. I don't think it'd work this time.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1379
Triangle and Robert #1380 While we're here, if we are in fact here, a point which I haven't yet decided to concede, we should get some information. / I'll go look. / Do you know what to look for? / Information. I'm sure I'll know it when I see it. / Oh. I guess it'd be physically manifested somehow, here. Just don't knock any of it over. What little conscious awareness the MSG entity possesses... did I spell that right? "Possesses"? That looks like too many esses. Since when do I read my own dialogue text, anyway? This place is weird.
