Triangle and Robert #601	The world was still moist, its crust still primordial pudding. Small puddic creatures swam about and ate each other. On the surface walked the Puddans, on their mighty semisolid limbs. / The greatest of the Puddans was their king, Tapiocus the Lumpy. He stood a mile tall and the planet shook when he... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?601
Triangle and Robert #602	Some Puddans became jealous of their king's palace and built a giant saucepan to put it in, so that they would not have to look upon it. / King Tapiocus, however, looked down and saw them plotting, and he sent forth his vast consort to crush them. / She fell upon the plotters, but they trapped her... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?602
Triangle and Robert #603	The plotters formed a circle around the saucepan, and King Tapiocus could not break through it to rescue his beloved. / He bargained with them, offering them valuable coupons for yogurt and many other treasured things. They refused and refused until his offers totalled half his treasury. / When they... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?603
Triangle and Robert #604	Hey! What happened to my voice? / I, uh... forgot who was telling the story. / I'm Prozac the Bear! / Thanks. / So, as you see, Prozac the Bear's incessant repetition of his own name is not done to annoy. It is in fact a defense mechanism, evolved to prevent this sort of thing happening. Prozac's unique... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?604
Triangle and Robert #605	Yes! I have the peppermill! / I doesn't look like much.... / Hey! Shouldn't it at least be glowing? / No. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?605

Triangle and Robert #606	It seems safe enough.... I'm going to disassemble it. / There aren't any batteries or anything... I can't even find any moving parts. The inside of this peppermill is filled with little symbols and diagrams. / This can't be a peppermill. The symbols must mean something... maybe it's a time capsule,... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?606
Triangle and Robert #607	On the flight home, Cube continues to fiddle around with the now-disassembled artifact. We join this scene, already in progress. / Peppercorns go in here, and pepper comes out there. How? Where's the mechanism? And why is this thing important? / That is not yours to know, polygon. / The Pudding-Watcher!... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?607
Triangle and Robert #608	Here are your complimentary peanuts, polygon. When I return, shall I bring chicken, fish, or salad? / You're working as a steward. / Only until my power returns. Do not cease to fear my wrath. / Salad. / Enjoy your vegetable matter while you can, polygon. All shall return to pudding yet. / No dressing,... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?608
Triangle and Robert #609	Can I have some peppercorns? / You intend to test the device. No. / Can I get another flight attendant? / Orpuddex? Are you hassling another passenger? / I told you before, cut it out. You said yourself you need this job. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?609
Triangle and Robert #610	You gave everyone in first class no tea, and now this? Give the man his peppercorns and apologize for the inconvenience. / Where are they? / Between the herring and the... / Marmalade. Found them. / (We should have hired that nice Janice Pearce-Smith....) / Uh, don't panic, but we're out of lemon-soaked... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?610

Triangle and Robert #611	Here. Take your peppercorns, mortal. / What, no "Share and enjoy"? / Savor this small victory while you can. When my power returns, you will be made to suffer as you have never suffered before. / I' m sorry, did you say something? / Now, let's find out what makes this thing tick. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?611
Triangle and Robert #612	I will warn you one last time. The secrets of that peppermill are not yours to know. / Oh, really? Why not? / I'm not saying. / Whenever someone gets me going I end up explaining way too much. / You don't even know what it does, do you. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?612
Triangle and Robert #613	It seems to be glowing now... no. It's not glowing, there are actually little lines projecting from it. / What the... geometric figures? So those little symbols on the inside of the peppermill weren't there to represent anything.... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?613
Triangle and Robert #614	B8. / Go fish. / Come on Advance to Illinois... / Hey, you're cheating! / What? / You have to put the black queen on the white bishop. / I do not! I have diplomatic immunity! / Only to electric attacks. / Fine, I'll trade in my tiles instead. / Um... aren't you just supposed to keep banging the lever, then... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?614
Triangle and Robert #615	You know, we have Hungry Hungry Hippos here too, but it doesn't require special graph paper. / Well, your Lassie vs. Flipper doesn't take place in Tokyo. What's your point? / Uh, Triangle, their Lassie and Flipper are normal-sized. / They are? What's supposed to be scary about that? / Um... Timmy doesn't... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?615

Triangle and Robert #616	So you're still on basic HHH, first edition? Did that even have character classes? / Well, the hippos were different colors.... No. / Eleven-sided dice? / Those aren't even physically possible in our geometry. / What? / There are no regular 11-hedrons where I come from. / But... then what do you throw... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?616
Triangle and Robert #617	Hold on here, you've both referred to the practice of throwing rice at weddings yourselves in past strips. / You mean you're just noticing your continuity errors now? / Well, you see, the thing is... Hey, look, they're talking about the Food Pyramid on the news! / Hooray for desperate story transitions! / Revelations... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?617
Triangle and Robert #618	In other news, a passenger plane vanished over the Asymptotic Ocean last night. The last radio transmission was normal until the end, when the pilot suddenly exclaimed "Yahtzee". / Authorities term it "unlikely" that the popular dice game was being played in the cockpit at the time. The passenger list... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?618
Triangle and Robert #619	So Cube's plane vanished... I suppose we're supposed to investigate? / That'd make things easier for me, but as always I have a backup plan in case you don't go along with the plot voluntarily. / Use it. I can't bring myself to care. / Cube never dealt straight with us. Why should we look for him? Besides,... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?619
Triangle and Robert #620	Okay, so I was bluffing about having a backup plan. Here's some pointless filler while I try to figure out wht comes next. / Hi! I'm Prozac the Bear! You must be Mr. Soap. / Mr. Soap, do you like adventures? / I'm really sorry about this, folks. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?620

Triangle and Robert #621	Let's go on an adventure, Mr. Soap! / We could go where Cube's plane vanished and look for him, Mr. Soap! / Oh, I have an even better idea! Let's learn how frozen yogurt is made! http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?621
Triangle and Robert #622	Miss Concarne, I need someone to rescue Cube, and you have the resources... / What? Oh! You! / Why should I do you any favors? / I can restore your past. / No deal! I don't know what you want from Cube, but I'm not interested in playing your game! / I think you'll change your mind. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?622
Triangle and Robert #623	I might not have all my memories, but I can remember back to before you started this strip of yours! Our world was beautiful! Shining! Internally consistent! / It's the Time of the Oval. Great changes are going to befall your planet whether it's a comic strip or not. Believe me, I'm looking out for... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?623
Triangle and Robert #624	My place is here until Mr. Disease regains consciousness. Have you asked the rhombus? / You think he could rescue Cube? / His tactics are unorthodox, but he is very resourceful, if the strip archive speaks true. / Hmm, Robert alone on an away mission.... I guess it's something to write about, at least.... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?624
Triangle and Robert #625	Are you a wacky enough rhombus to rescue the archaeologist? / Give me a lawn ornament long enough and I will move the world. / How about a submarine and some frozen dinners? / I'd feel more comfortable if I had a plastic flamingo to work with. / I can't draw lawn ornaments, or lawns. I also can't draw... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?625

Triangle and Robert #626	Crewing his new submarine with a variety of outdoor decorations, Robert sets off for the coordinates of the vanished plane's last transmission. / Unfortunately, there is a stowaway. / Two stowaways. He's Mr. Soap! / Okay, two stowaways including Mr. Soap. Why aren't you touring a frozen yogurt production... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?626
Triangle and Robert #627	blip / Yeoman Crunch! Radar report! / You ate Yeoman Crunch. / That explains many things. / blip / Oh, there's a sunken city thing off to starboard. You might want to look at it. / Did I ask for your help? / blip http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?627
Triangle and Robert #628	Hi! I'm Prozac the Bear, and he's Mr. Soap! / Stowaways. / Get out of my submarine. / We're sorry. / In hindsight, I should have surfaced before I said that. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?628
Triangle and Robert #629	Prozac doesn't require gaseous oxygen. He'll be fine. / But what about... / Mr. Soap! Noooooooo! / He was my best friend! I'm Prozac the Bear! http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?629
Triangle and Robert #630	My friend... Mr. Soap... he's gone. How? Why? WHY? / Your "friend" was water-soluble. / Hey, a ruined city! Maybe someone there knows why Mr. Soap went away! / Despite the lack of light in the deep sea, Prozac catches sight of the ruin. It is a city of squares, cubes, and ninety-degre angles. Time and... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?630
