Triangle and Robert #1693	Hi there! I was going to bring flowers, but then I real... Robert, why are you blocking my way? / Have you been collaborating with the Cornersheep? / As a matter of fact I have, but not anything sinister. I didn't know it was him at first, just some anonymous stranger with an interest in the Fifth Race... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1693
Triangle and Robert #1694	I think you should leave. / Robert, I want to hear him out. / Is it safe to cross your speech lines like that? / If we don't do it to often. Anyway, tell us about your contact with the Cornersheep. / Do you realize that of all the technologies the Ovalnaut gave him, he only used / the few that would not... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1694
Triangle and Robert #1695	He was just a sheep. When he became something more, he needed to know who he was. / Then he should have stopped being a villain the moment he learned about the Fifth Race. / I guess I sound like I'm condoning what he did. I don't mean to. / Identities are hard things to change, though, you know? / Why... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1695
Triangle and Robert #1696	They're talking about me. They have it all wrong, you know. / I think they're pretty close. / No. They're treating my supervillainy as a passing phase. / And what is it really? / It's just me. / What reasons would I have to believe that? http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1696
Triangle and Robert #1697	I didn't come here to talk about the Cornersheep, though I'm willing to. May I see Triangle now? / Triangle! You look g... You look... Yow. Does it hurt? / Yes. / Oh. So. Are you okay to have a conversation? / Pretty much. Tell me about the fall of the First Race and the rise of the Second. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1697

Triangle and Robert #1698	It's hard. The First Race had no written language, and the Second left barely anything. What can I tell you?... Well, we know about meat. / You know meat forms in space, right? / Yes. / Well, before Earth neared the dual lump which marked the end of the First Race, there were meat storms. / So the Second... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1698
Triangle and Robert #1699	Triangle! Your vertex! / It seems pretty good. I think I can move around now. / Nope. / Okay, back into the green science goo. Get a nurse. / I can do that. / So what have we learned? / About my healing process or about meat? / I was hoping for synergy. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1699
Triangle and Robert #1700	If the Second Race began as fallen space meat, and then PAINKILLERS! I NEED PAINKILLERS! / Cube's getting a nurse. / I don't need a nurse, I need drugs! / I've never lost a vertex, so I really have no idea how much it hurts. / >&$@#+;@%^\]{.!^@... -{`~;!^&,>?;:$$(!... :$@&&*!!! / Hey! Can we get some... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1700
Triangle and Robert #1701	You can't get Triangle excited like that. He needs to stay still and in the solution for his vertex to regrow. / It grew back a lot sooner than we expected it to, and probably a lot weaker. / It probably came back so fast because Friend Cartoonist forgot to keep cropping it out of the frame. / "Friend... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1701
Triangle and Robert #1702	Triangle, we can't get you too excited. I'm going to go do something else and leave you to rest. / See you around! / I wasn't getting that excited. It's your fault I moved. / You were starting to get a little worked up. / So I should just sleep? / Works for me. / I'm not really tired. / Press your sedative... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1702

Triangle and Robert #1703	How's the Recapulon project coming along? / It's working. Do you want to do Year Three now? / No. Things are making enough sense for me at the moment. / I know you don't believe me about the Cornersheep. I'll admit I could be wrong. / You are wrong, but someone has to be for the subplot to work. / You... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1703
Triangle and Robert #1704	I don't know... it still sounds awfully abstract. / No, it's very simple! Taco and Clam are natural enemies, competing over a resource which is a pink balloon. / I'm not saying I wouldn't watch "Taco Versus Clam". I'd probably like it. But it would never air on the TV of my world. / Sometimes they cooperate... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1704
Triangle and Robert #1705	Were you actually discharged from the hospital? / What are you, my mother? / Technically, I suppose I might be. / I can take care of my own health. / News to me. / Is there a point to this nagging? / Just establishing things so it'll make sense when you suddenly fall over a few strips later. Now, what's... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1705
Triangle and Robert #1706	The world's only office supply store? / It's just a TV show. They can take liberties like that. / And Clam manages it? / Just in this episode. / So what they do changes from episode to episode? / Only Clam and some of the supporting cast. Taco stays the same. / And what does Taco do? / Taco lives in a Mexican... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1706
Triangle and Robert #1707	{{sym: pi normal omega}}! / BOOM / {{sym: iota delta delta / theta delta}}... / Hooray for Taco! / That ending made... no sense. Is Prozac the Bear a writer on this thing? / That wasn't the ending. / Aren't those the credits now? / No, those are joke credits. / What's the joke? They look normal. / They're... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1707

Triangle and Robert #1708	Hey, does your Earth have a "Jorge Luis Borges" or something similar? / Yes. He was a writer. He often wrote fictional critiques of nonexistent works instead of writing the actual stories therein. / Oh. Not a parallel of ours, then. / Let me guess. Yours was an actual literary critic and all the books... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1708
Triangle and Robert #1709	These are the actual closing credits now, right? Because all the vowels are the wrong size? I think I'm starting to get the rules of "Taco Versus Clam" now. / [[Robert wobbles]] / [[Robert has fallen over]] / See, this is why hospitals have discharge procedures and you're not supposed to just leave when... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1709
Triangle and Robert #1710	What? / Triangle? / You said "Clam script." / It was the end of an earlier sentence. / I passed out in the middle. / What sort of sentence ends with "Clam script"? Don't tell me you're trying to design a mollusc-based handwriting recognition system. / Okay, I won't. / Actually, he isn't. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1710
Triangle and Robert #1711	I'm not going to ask you about whatever irritating yet ultimately unoriginal and unfulfilling plan you have cooked up. I need to avoid getting excited. / It's a boring plan. / I'm not listening. I think I'll have some more sedatives, too. Just in case you keep talking, I mean. / Sedatives for whom? / Yeah...... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1711
Triangle and Robert #1712	[[Triangle and Robert are sedated]] / Well, that hospital there sure doesn't skimp on the sedatives. / Good thing there wasn't any important dialogue for today. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1712

Triangle and Robert #1713	Where am I? Why am I in a vat of... wading pool of... green... my vertex? Oh, no. It's coming back now. Robert, you okay? / I seem to think I'm a bivalve, but otherwise I'm sleepy and in great pain. / This hospital stay is becoming lengthy and boring. / I forget why I dreamed I was a clam. Or perhaps... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1713
Triangle and Robert #1714	You shouldn't be standing up. / The script! / The mysterious "clam script"? / Taco Versus! / Right, I forgot I wasn't going to ask. / Typewriter now! Still fresh in my mind! / Must... crawl... onward. Need... typewriter! http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1714
Triangle and Robert #1715	Nurse! Typewriter... for clam now! / Security! We've got a runner! / What? No... typewriter! Taco! / He's delirious! Bring the net! / The net's down. There was a memo. / Then just drag him back to his room. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1715
Triangle and Robert #1716	They wouldn't let me have a typewriter. / Typewriter {{sym: is a member of}} Instruments {{sym: intersection}} Blunt. / Now I'm going to be up all night figuring out how you pronounced that. / No you're not. Have some more sedatives. / Not that I have anything against gratuitous binges of fancy hospital... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1716
Triangle and Robert #1717	Comics generally gloss over lengthy between-adventures hospital stays and pick up again when the next adventure starts. / That they do. / So, maybe you should think about that. Either we could fast-forward with you and not have to deal with convalescence, or we can get a couple months of Cartoonist-free... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1717

Triangle and Robert #1718	Pardon me, we have a few questions about your insurance. / Not without a fight! / What? Robert, you can barely crawl. / Have at thee! / I beg your pardon? / Nothing.... You were saying? http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1718
Triangle and Robert #1719	You attacked me. / No. I was stretching. / You don't have any insurance at all, do you? / Of course we have insurance! Who wouldn't have... no. / Normally that's not a problem, but convicted felons and experimental treatments aren't eligible for free care. / You can't stop treatment now! I need my vertex... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1719
Triangle and Robert #1720	This isn't particularly wacky, but the Meat Sentry doesn't do consulting and you were the only others involved.... / So you want us to revisit a previous plot element? / We would like to implement a system for mass production of Starhams. / I'm not sure magical curatives and hospitals can really mix.... / But... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1720
Triangle and Robert #1721	We can't take the case. / Why not? / We're filled with drugs. We need to think about your proposal clearly. / It's not like you have a choice. / Maybe we do and we're just too sedated to see it. / I don't think we can let you sit here without appropriate painkillers. / Why not? You were going to stop treatment... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1721
Triangle and Robert #1722	I see how a source of Starhams might be important for medical science. We're not competent to enter into a binding contract at the moment, but maybe... uh... / Where am I? / Point taken. / I want peas. / I think he was going to say we'll help you a little, but can't guarantee anything. / What happened... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1722
