| Triangle and Robert #1171 | The MSG-plane only holds three.
/ We have to go, we're the title characters.
/ The third should be Mr. Disease so we can stay in touch with the entity. / I fear that the mind of the glutamate assists us only for its own ends. The Cornersheep and the Oval threaten its power. / So once we've defeated them... well, for now we don't have a choice. We have to stop the known villains.
/ Are we flying yet? I can't tell. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1171 |
| Triangle and Robert #1172 | Prepare for landing.
/ Already? We can't be over Scotland yet. / Yes, we can.
/ Oh, you're trying to get the Cartoonist to... oh no. I shouldn't have said anything. / Actually, you are over Scotland. The plane travelled through some of the higher-order dimensions I never draw. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1172 |
| Triangle and Robert #1173 | We should have formed a plan...
/ and taken equipment...
/ and gathered more intelligence...
/ and stuff. / The plan is thus to gather intelligence and equipment.
/ Or we could turn around. / No. Fight now. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1173 |
| Triangle and Robert #1174 | The plane's landing. Now there's no turning
/ into a giant robot?
/ No, back. / So we can turn into a giant robot?
/ Not that I know of. That sounds more like a Sentry thing. / It is not. The rhombus sat on the remote and inadvertently flipped channels between Iron Chef and Voltron.
/ I'll take that as a punchline. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1174 |
| Triangle and Robert #1175 | Outside the MSG-plane...
/ I'm not seeing any lair.
/ It must be underground. / Stumble aimlessly, there's probably a secret entrance nearby.
/ I'm on it. / Whoops, I just tripped over this... ordinary rock. Oh well, maybe next time.
/ Keep going, you'll do it.
/ Is there not a faster way in? Perhaps with explosions? http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1175 |
| Triangle and Robert #1176 | Cartoonist! Any hints?
/ As long as Robert stays true to himself, the Oval will be defeated.
/ And the Cornersheep? / Don't worry about the Cornersheep. The Oval's the real threat.
/ What happens if Robert fails?
/ I don't know. Maybe this whole plot'll have been a dream or something.
/ Don't... you... dare. / Should I pretend I didn't hear any of that?
/ Your call. I'll just let you do your thing. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1176 |
| Triangle and Robert #1177 | While Robert attempts to penetrate the mysterious defenses of the Oval's hiding place, a situation arises back home.
/ The dome's down. The sheep will attack the city! / Three of us can't defend a city, even against sheep.
/ We need a force to lead. / Perhaps. Perhaps not. I should attempt the Fondue.
/ Gasp! http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1177 |
| Triangle and Robert #1178 | You have the recipe. That doesn't mean you have the skill. / How do you know the recipe anyway? Who wrote it? What is the purpose of the Fondue of Four Thousand Cheeses? / I don't know. Maybe I'll find out if I make it. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1178 |
| Triangle and Robert #1179 | I think I can convince the RDCLBA to organize a defense against the sheep.
/ Do that. / Will you help me prepare the Fondue?
/ I can't think of anything more productive to do. / One lengthy recipe recitation later...
/ I know where to get most of those cheeses, but are you sure Venezuela even has beavers?
/ No. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1179 |
| Triangle and Robert #1180 | Mr. Pyramid, if we can still call you that...
/ You may.
/ The RDCLBA is not a military organization. / You're a letting-sheep-take-over-the-city organization?
/ We could cover up the fact that the sheep are invading... Would that help? / How could that possibly help?
/ Well, if the sheep don't know they're invading, they wouldn't be much of a threat, right? ... Well, that's the best I've got. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1180 |
| Triangle and Robert #1181 | Listen up! The RDCLBA has a job to do! Just because the government has been disbanded by sheep doesn't mean we can't do something! / We lost a lot of polygons in the Cube disaster, and I know the agency hasn't really recovered. That doesn't change the task at hand. This city will soon be attacked by ovine forces. We won't stand a chance in direct combat. We need to divert them.
/ And then what? / We can only hope that the Oval will be defeated in Scotland and the sheep will be pulled back. It's not much of a hope, I know. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1181 |
| Triangle and Robert #1182 | [[sign: NOT / TO CITY]]
/ Baa?
/ Baa. / Great, that bought some time. They're bound to catch on at some point, though. We need to keep it up.
/ What if we paint the outskirts of the city pink? / Where could we possibly find that much pink? Color is not an option.
/ What if... we write the word "pink" on all the buildings? If the sheep continue to be this dumb that'll be enough. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1182 |
| Triangle and Robert #1183 | How'd you do with your half of the cheese list?
/ I found most of them. / Same here. What are you missing?
/ A few sheep's milk, and mild cheddar. / You couldn't find cheddar?
/ I think it's just the Cartoonist trying to force us into a Monty Python reference. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1183 |
| Triangle and Robert #1184 | Here we have gathered three thousand nine hundred seventy-eight cheeses.
/ Seventy-nine, I found the cheddar. / I can make nineteen of the remainder with a lactating sheep and some power tools. The last two could be a problem.
/ I don't have your memory. Which two? / Aged parmesan, minimum six hundred years, and farmer's cheese pasteurized on a winter solstice.
/ I know! I'll be right back. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1184 |
| Triangle and Robert #1185 | I know this is an unusual request, but the situation is desperate. I wish to remove relics from the crypt.
/ You? Is that... really you? You've grown quite a lot. / What? Do you know me from somewhe... ... Master Basil? What are you doing here?
/ I'm just a gravetender now. My chef days are well behind me. / I'm the Vegetable Sentry now, Master Basil. I've never forgotten what you taught me.
/ Sentry? You? What happened?
/ It was a long time ago. I would have told you if I had known where you were. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1185 |
| Triangle and Robert #1186 | Where is he? Cheese waits for no polygon.
/ He met an old teacher of his. They're catching up on old times. / But the cheeses... he can't afford to waste time!
/ You haven't even begun to milk any sheep. What are you waiting for?
/ I can't capture a ewe alone!
/ Why not? / I... oh. You're right. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1186 |
| Triangle and Robert #1187 | I was with her when she died. She... she choked on a scallion. That's no death for a Sentry.
/ She would bolt her food. That was her one great weakness. / She gave me her spatula. I didn't want to take it. I knew there had to be someone who would make a better Vegetable Sentry than myself.
/ Then why... / She threw it at me with her last tablespoon of strength. It was in contact with me at the moment her spirit departed her body. I still think it was the wrong choice, but I've tried my best. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1187 |
| Triangle and Robert #1188 | I can't just let you into the crypt. Fight me. I expect you'll win. / No, Master Basil. I'll find another way to what I seek.
/ Tell me then, what did you hope to find in the crypt? / Rare cheeses. The Dairy Sentry is attempting the Fondue of Four Thousand Cheeses. I need ancient Parmesan, and farmer's cheese pasteurized on a winter solstice.
/ How ancient?
/ Aged 600 years.
/ Is that all? That, I can grant you as a gift from my own salad toppings. As for the farmer's cheese... seek elsewhere. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1188 |
| Triangle and Robert #1189 | Hi! I'm Generic Fluoxetine the Bear!
/ Cartoonist: o, my prescription change doesn't affect you. / Oh, good! That was too many syllables!
/ Where is this scene, anyway? / The second stomach.
/ The second stomach of what?
/ No one! http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1189 |
| Triangle and Robert #1190 | I'm sensing dairy on this one... / Lactosuction, engage! / Fortunately, I don't have to draw this effect since milk is white. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1190 |
| Triangle and Robert #1191 | Sheep cheeses underway.
/ Parmesan acquired. I'm not sure about the farmer's cheese. / That's what SHE said!
/ Huh?
/ Huh?
/ Sorry. / I'll take no chances. Gather all ingredients before beginning preparation.
/ Yes, but how? No one marks farmer's cheese my date of pasteurization... at least... not consciously... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1191 |
| Triangle and Robert #1192 | Where'd Vegetable go?
/ How should I know? / ...I'm supposed to be writing it...
/ Yes. / I'm not here to hurt you, but I'm running out of patience! Give me your time sheets for the week of the solstice!
/ Bring it on. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1192 |
| Triangle and Robert #1193 | I know you pasteurized a shipment on the 12th. Who handled it?
/ That's none of your business, Sentry. / Remember, I asked nicely. / No! Bad idea! BAD i... http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1193 |
| Triangle and Robert #1194 | The Vegetable Sentry just died.
/ Are you sure? What happened? / He performed a sort of drill stomp attack in a dairy processing plant, went through the floor, and detonated a fermentation tank.
/ No. / A dairy explosion can't have killed him.
/ It could have if that's what the plot required. The cartoonist
/ {{bottom half of the panel has been scribbled out}} http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1194 |
| Triangle and Robert #1195 | What are you doing? What's this for?
/ I don't want you to give away the plot.
/ {{bottom half of the panel is scribbled out}} / It's okay to speculate, but I'd like the readers to do their own speculating independently.
/ This is new. / What speculating? All I said was it's obvious you're killing off the four sentries.
/ That's not speculation, that's a solid fact. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1195 |
| Triangle and Robert #1196 | Okay, okay. The plot as I have it envisioned does call for some number of dying Sentries. / That doesn't mean they'll die. The plot's gotten away from me on more that one occassion. / The Fondue must be what you're planning to kill the Dairy Sentry with... What'll kill the Grain Sentry?
/ My guess is an RDCLBA loose cannon.
/ Oh, you're no fun anymore. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1196 |
| Triangle and Robert #1197 | Where's the Vegetable Sentry?
/ Er... well... / He's kind of late.
/ Late as in dead? / ... ...... yes. When did I get so predictable?
/ Mu. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1197 |
| Triangle and Robert #1198 | If I leave here to get the final cheese, all the cheese I've collected might be tampered with.
/ Carry it. / How?
/ Telekinesis.
/ I don't have that. / You did when you were an inverted capital G. I don't believe the Starham took away any of your abilities.
/ I've had energy beams all this time? That would have been handy to know. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1198 |
| Triangle and Robert #1199 | Cheeses, arise!
/ (Energy beams. Honest.) / That wasn't even hard. Now to collect the final cheese and being the Fondue.
/ (Still an energy beam, but now it's acting sort of like a kite string.) / I saw the pasteurization plant explode and figured you could use help. How many cheeses to go? http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1199 |
| Triangle and Robert #1200 | One cheese. Farmer's. Pasteurized on winter solstice. / If I bring samples, can you date them?
/ I don't swing that way. / That's not what I meant.
/ I realized that right after I said it. http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?1200 |
