/ [[Ki & Nick are at the ticket counter of SuperAir.]]
/ Ki: We kept telling each other it was temporary. Dad would recover (or worse, pass on), and I'd fly out to meet him. / [[Soldier standing watch at a security checkpoint with a shouldered M16.]]
/ Ki: I wish he could have come to the gate with me, but after 9-11, that was impossible. We lingered as long as we could... / [[Nick & Ki embracing.]]
/ Ki: Just a few more minutes... A few more minutes... If only I had known... / [[Nick is crying, as they kiss goodbye.]]
/ Ki: ...that was the last time I saw him... until just before the end... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020406.html |
| GPF Archive: Sunday, April 7, 2002 | [[Ki crying, looking out the plane's window.]]
/ Ki (Narrates): I died inside that day... / Ki (Narrates): Although... I did have one ray of sunshine...
/ Unknown: ACHOO!
/ Ki (caught off guard): ! / Ki: Persephone?! How--?!?
/ Persephone: Hi, Ki! I snuck into Nick's pocket to hear Fooker's sentence, but I had to duck back into your purse to avoid being seen. / [[The passenger next to Ki (who looks suspiciously like Pete Abrams of "Sluggy Freelance" fame) spots Persephone and is very surprised.]] / [[Ki scrambles for an explanation. Abrams looks skeptical.]]
/ Ki: Talking bean bag toy... For my baby brother...!
/ Persephone: The X-ray machine left me a little queasy... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020407.html |
| GPF Archive: Monday, April 8, 2002 | {{Ki narrates this strip.}} / [[Nick watches Dwayne in court.]]
/ Dwayne's trial was soon after that. Nick saw most of it before he had to move. It wasn't pretty. / [[Dwayne looks down, disappointed, while the judge's gavel slams down.]]
/ Ki: I know Dwayne was innocent, but the circumstantial evidence was all there was, and it was his word against theirs. Guess who the jury believed. / [[Dwayne's hands are in cuffs.]]
/ Ki: Since it was a first offense, he really got off light. Just a couple of years in prison. Still, it was enough to scar his reputation. He never fully recovered. / [[Dwayne is led away, while Nicole cries, seeing him off.]]
/ Ki: Poor Nicole... Left alone with Sydney. They stayed strong, all three, but the strain... I wish I could have been there to help... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020408.html |
| GPF Archive: Tuesday, April 9, 2002 | {{Ki narrates this strip.}} / [[Nick watches a plane take off.]]
/ Ki: Nick flew out to his job then. He was happy there, although I could tell there was something he was hiding from me. / [[Ki & Nick talking via computer video.]]
/ Ki: We spoke often, on the phone, e-mail, video on the 'Net... But the strain was obvious... We were drifting apart... / [[A VERY bright light makes Ki shield her eyes.]]
/ Ki: Then... Everything else happened. You know the rest. And what we never told you, you were smart enough to figure out. / [[Silouhette of Trudy amongst flames.]]
/ Ki: I should have seen it coming. But none of us did. The world was about to be plunged into darkness, and we were powerless to stop it. http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020409.html |
| GPF Archive: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 | {{Ki narrates this strip.}} / [[Ki holds a burned picture of Ki, Nick, Trudy and Fooker, though Fooker's head has been burned mostly out.]]
/ Ki: Looking back on it all, I don't know if I COULD have seen it coming. I had no evidence. No proof. Just speculation and doubt. / [[The top four C.R.U.D.E. members stand grinning while their planes fly overhead.]]
/ Ki: No one expected the swiftness of the take-over, or the ease of it. They had been planning for a long time. And SHE handed them the means. / [[Nefarious has been shot in the head, Dr. Not lies dead in Connery's arms, while he stares down the barrel of a pistol.]]
/ Ki: But they didn't expect the double-cross, and it wasn't long before she stood alone. Fooker told me the battle was fierce. / [[Silouhette of Trudy standing in front of legions of her police bots.]]
/ Ki: We gathered our forces--what was left--and tried to oppose her. By now, I'm sure you know how successful we were... http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020410.html |
| GPF Archive: Thursday, April 11, 2002 | Future Ki, writing: One by one, they all fell, friends, family, lovers... Some fell to the rest of death, while others fell to darker paths.
/ [[A slime mold is being zapped by Doctor O in the shadows]] / Future Ki, writing: Now only the few remain... We took a major blow when Fooker died... And poor, poor Dwayne... So senseless in how he went...
/ [[Future Fooker and Dwayne fighting ]] / Future Ki, writing: And your father... The last to understand, but the first to oppose... He paid the greatest price. If only we had him from the beginning...
/ [[A photo of future Nick with tears on it]] / Future Ki, writing: If only he knew... He would have been so proud of you, my son. Very proud...
/ [[Future Ki writing, with Todd seeping in the background]] http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020411.html |
| GPF Archive: Friday, April 12, 2002 | {{Ki narrates this strip.}} / [[Bodies and bots are strewn about.]]
/ Ki: I'm going now. I don't expect to come back from this mission, so I guess this is my way of saying goodbye. / [[A silhouette rises from the bodies.]]
/ Ki: Take care of Uncle Wise, and heed the advice of Sydney. She's very wise for her years. / [[Todd rises, wounded.]]
/ Ki: Remember, you're our ace in the hole, our last hope. If I don't come back, everything rests on you. / [[Todd raises the remote.]]
/ Ki: Without you, all hope for freedom is lost. http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020412.html |
| GPF Archive: Saturday, April 13, 2002 | [[Todd, battered, clothes torn, runs through a battle-scarred building, littered with destroyed robots and dead bodies.]] / [[As Todd runs to the light coming from an open door, Empress Trudy watches him from above.]] / [[Face and arms scratched and bloody, she watches...]] / [[In a closer view, her eyes narrow.]]

| GPF Archive: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 | [[Nick, Lou, Megan, and Stan are in the JCN cafeteria.]]
/ Lou: So is working for a big company different from the small one you were at before?
/ Nick: So far, definitely. / Nick: I mean, back at GPF, we had to be a lot more careful with waste and expenses. Here, it seems everything is in abundance.
/ Lou: Heh, GPF. / Megan: Oh, don't think THAT! We've had to cut corners a lot lately.
/ Stan: We've been hit hard by the downturn as well. / Megan: I mean, the silverware is no longer SILVER!
/ Stan: And why do you think we have a FOUR-star chef...
/ Chef: Lobster?
/ Lou: Grumble, grumble http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020417.html |

/ Nick: So THIS is where your new job is at...
/ Trudy: Yep! I'm on the marketing team in building J-24. / Nick: I'm on the "Velociraptor" project. I'm not sure what that means yet...
/ Trudy: Ooh... Neither do I, but the buzz from marketing is that it's the "next big thing." / [[Long shot of Trudy & Nick sitting in the cafeteria.]]
/ Trudy: I'm not used to this big company atmosphere, though... After GPF, it seems so easy to get lost in the crowd.
/ Nick: Yeah... / Trudy: Good thing we both found a familiar face!
/ Nick: Fancy that. http://www.gpf-comics.com/d/20020419.html |
| GPF Archive: Saturday, April 20, 2002 | [[Nick & Trudy are sitting and eating in the JCN cafeteria.]]

/ Trudy: Goodness... / [[Nick plays with his food a bit.]]
/ Trudy: So when is Ki coming here to be with you?
/ Nick: It will... be a while. Her Dad was in a bad accident. Her Mom needs her.
