Triangle and Robert #156 Are we there yet? / No. And it's pretty odd. We've been climbing long enough. / Oh, I remember now. We went all the way back down to fill out those Character Profile things. / Right. That was a big waste of time. / Maybe for you, but it got me out of writing five days' plot. / This is why there should be a mandatory licensing program for cartoonists. / My feet would be killing me if I had them.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?156
Triangle and Robert #157 Just a bit further and we'll be at the crater of Mount Scary. / We should've sprung the five bucks for the chairlift. / There was a chairlift? / Well, two lines and a rectangle. It was probably supposed to be a chairlift.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?157
Triangle and Robert #158 At last. The top of Mount Scary. / Now to chuck this thing in the... / Oh. Sorry. Forgot to draw the crater. / Well? / Give me a minute.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?158
Triangle and Robert #159 Well? / Crater? / Hello? Draw the crater so we can get on with the plot? / We need a big flaming pit! / This is stupid. Again. / Author? Where'd you go?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?159
Triangle and Robert #160 I'm back. / Did you bring a crater? / A small one'll do. / Crater. Right. That's what I was supposed to do. / Then what were you doing? / I came up with some great new characters for you to play with! / Play? / Should we start screaming now?
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?160
 
Triangle and Robert #161 Hi! I'm Prozac the Bear! / (whimper) / You're a bear? / cartoonist'sgonnapay cartoonist'sgonnapay... / Technically, it's Bear the Prozac, but it sounds better the other way. / cartoonist'sgonnapay...
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?161
Triangle and Robert #162 I'm Prozac the Bear! / I'm Prozac the Bear! / I'm Prozac the Bear! / CARTOONIST'S GONNA PAY!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?162
Triangle and Robert #163 (seethe seethe) / I know what you need! / Know what? Know what? I know what I need too! / Ow! That's my - Hey! You're pointy! Stop - Yowch! Arrr! Oh my - my - ...ag... / Triangle? / I feel much better now.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?163
Triangle and Robert #164 Okay, so Prozac the Bear wasn't what I expected. Let's introduce the next new character: MR. SOAP! / A talking bar of soap? / Talking? Er... no. / Not talking? A mime made of soap? / Um, no... just a bar of soap. Here's an idea, we'll skip that one for now. / Maybe the bar of soap should draw the comic strip.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?164
Triangle and Robert #165 Okay, fine, here you go. A crater. / This is going to be something stupid, isn't it. / Cratery. / Could be worse. / Okay, toss it. / Bye-bye, thing that our neighbour gave us that we don't know what it is!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?165
 
Triangle and Robert #166 It should be hitting bottom any moment now. / It should go sizzle any second. / THUMP / Thump? / It should be a sizzle, or at least a sploosh-fizz. / Any idea what's wrong? / Yeah! This crater doesn't have any lava in it!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?166
Triangle and Robert #167 All this way and the volcano's... empty. / Should we write an angry letter? / Not worth the bother. We threw the relic in the volcano, we're done. / Orpuddex'll take it the moment we leave. / Let him. He's a bumbling inept villian anyway. / True, and besides, he doesn't have any arms.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?167
Triangle and Robert #168 Well Cube, we threw the whatsit into the crater of Mount Scary. / One slight problem though... / Ssh! / No. No problems. Orpuddex got in the way, but we got around him. / Orpuddex? The Pudding-Watcher walks upon the earth? / Well... yeah. / Haven't you been reading the back strips? / The Time of the Oval is at hand!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?168
Triangle and Robert #169 What did Cube mean by the Time of the Oval? / No idea. If it's important we'll learn more about it later. / You know... that last job wasn't really consulting work. We're supposed to be wacky scheme consultants, but.... / Yeah! And it wasn't wacky either! / For that matter it barely qualified as a scheme. / Paid well though. / Oh, yeah, the pay was great.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?169
Triangle and Robert #170 Hi! Welcome to Triangle and Robert Wacky Scheme Consultants! How may we serve you? / I hope you'll understand that I can't tell you the whole story.... / Oh, of course. We have a stunning lack of discretion here at T&RWSC. Anything important you told us would end up in the hands of your enemies almost immediately. / That's a rather, um... honest thing to tell a potential client. / As I said, no sense of discretion.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?170
 
Triangle and Robert #171 To cut a long story so short it'll fit in one panel and not make any sense whatsoever, I need two-thirds of the Senate to autograph my fish by Tuesday. / Now that's wacky! We'll do it~ / ~? / Sorry, I was so excited about you having a new case I mistyped. That was supposed to be an exclamation point.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?171
Triangle and Robert #172 Well, Triangle, I've come up with a six-step plan to give this client what he wants. / I have to go along with it, of course. / Step one: Convince the fish it's a ballet instructor. Step two: / HOLD IT! / Why don't you tell me the plan step by step as we go. That way the shock will be spread out and I'll be less likely to spontaneously combust. / Actually, you spontaneously combusting WAS step two, but I can change that.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?172
Triangle and Robert #173 Author? I'm just wondering... how are you going to be able to draw the Senate? / I mean, that really seems to be beyond your, um... artistic inability. / I'm still trying to figure out how to draw the fish. / Oh goody.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?173
Triangle and Robert #174 You are becoming tired.... You can feel your thoughts drifting far, far away.... / Robert? You can't hypnotize it. / You are asleep now.... When you awaken, you will no longer be as you are.... / Robert? It doesn't know what you're saying. / When you awaken, you will feel an uncontrollable urge.... When you awaken, you will feel the need to teach ballet! / Robert? It's a fish. / No! It's a ballet instructor!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?174
Triangle and Robert #175 What makes you think that a fish actually believes it's a ballet instructor? / Don't ask. It's silly and it would just make you angry. / Does it have anything to do with... / The interdimensional portal and the box of rubber pretzels? Sort of. / You're right. It would just make me angry.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?175
 
Triangle and Robert #176 Okay, now what's step two? / We teach our new client to read and write fluent New Hampshire. / That's just as stupid as having me spontaneously combust. And New Hampshire isn't a language, it's a state. / A state... or a state of mind? / A state. / I take it you mind.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?176
Triangle and Robert #177 While I take care of step two, you can get started on step three. / Yes. Or, I could attempt to cling to the fleeting shred of sanity I have remaining. / Okay. While you're clinging, could you order a couple gross of kazoos? / No. No, I couldn't.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?177
Triangle and Robert #178 We're falling behind our timetable here. We've got to get this fish through the Senate in four days! / Okay, okay, what do I need to do? / Bury this bag of ground pork. / And this will help because... / It has a radio transmitter in it. / Of course. It's blindingly obvious now, isn't it.
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?178
Triangle and Robert #179 No. I'm not ordering a couple gross of kazoos, I'm not burying a bugged bag of ground pork, I'm not going to dress as a giant strawberry, and this idea with the dry ice sculpture of Richard Vernon goes beyond moronic. / Whoa. / This so-called "plan" of yours is a concatenation of random allegedly "wacky" steps with little humor value, no plot value, and a vast but unfortunately negative degree of utility. / But... but... it's wacky! / No. It's absurd and pointless. / That's just as good!
http://tr.froup.com/tr.pl?179
Triangle and Robert #180 We agreed to go into this business together. This is what wacky scheme consultants do. You know that. / There's a difference between wacky and absurd. / No there isn't. / But Robert was wrong. There was indeed a difference between wacky and absurd, and we'll be exploring that difference in a new series starting next strip. / In other words, prepare for padding. / You know me so well.
