/ Pete: At first I thought they meant the market... But I'm not so sure anymore.
/ Pete: In any case, we're doomed. / [[Hiryuu cringes]]
/ Hiryuu: Ergh... Do you think we could rent the place? Or buy?
/ Pete: You've got $300,000 to spare? / [[Fred enters]]
/ Pete: How am I going to deal with this, man?! HOW DO WE TELL THE OTHERS?!
/ Fred: I hate to interrupt your crisis... But... / [[Fred leans around a corner, Pete looks exasperated]]

/ Laura: REALITY TV! http://taoofgeek.com/archive.php?date=20040709 |
| The Tao of Geek: an online comic | [[Laura is speaking]]
/ Laura: Now, the problem with current reality TV is that it's all edited for drama. What you see isn't always what happened. / [[Laura holds up her hands]]
/ Laura: My idea is to use camera teams to follow subjects around all day, showing things as they appear! Uncensored! Unless we're not showing you then. / [[Pete is angry; Laura looks devilish]]
/ Pete: Constant coverage on TV? No way! Nothing's worth that!
/ Laura: That's too bad... / [[Laura speaks almost seductively]]
/ Laura: ...I happen to know that the money makes it all MORE than worthwhile. / [[Hiryuu, Pete, and Fred smile as their eyes turn to dollar signs; Laura grins and holds up a contract]]
/ Hiryuu: MONEY?
/ Pete: Well, we could use some...

/ Pete: What ABOUT Jeremy?
/ Hiryuu: Shouldn't we ask him? / [[Pete and Hiryuu appear in silhouette]]
/ Pete: Do you think he'd agree?
/ Hiryuu: Well, no...
/ Pete: Exactly. Besides, we outnumber him, so we win.
/ Hiryuu: Even so... I dunno... / [[Hiryuu looks doubtful; Laura grins devilishly]]
/ Hiryuu: I just feel rather DIRTY about this...
/ Laura: Trust me, that feeling goes away REAL quick. http://taoofgeek.com/archive.php?date=20040712 |
| The Tao of Geek: an online comic | [[Pete hands Laura the contract]]
/ Pete: So... You'll be filming us.
/ Laura: Yup! You're the focus of this show. / [[Pete looks worried; Laura looks over the contract]]
/ Pete: But, uh... How will you deal with Jeremy?
/ Laura: Oh, don't worry, it's all taken care of. / [[Pete rubs his head]]
/ Pete: I'm a little skeptical...
/ Laura: Hey, don't fret, you're in some very capable hands. / [[Laura introduces her camera crew: a tall skinny guy carrying a camera and a short, pudgy, bearded guy carrying a boom]]
/ Laura: And here's some of them now! / [[Pete looks incredulous; Laura is angry; Hiryuu looks concerned]]
/ Pete: You got us ugly groupie paparazzi?
/ Laura: They're your CAMERA CREW, idiot!

/ Hiryuu: It's what we buy. / [[Hiryuu is annoyed]]
/ Laura (off-panel): Oh for... WHY?
/ Hiryuu: Because for the most part, you get the same quality at a better price. Why pay more for stuff that tastes like crap? / [[We see Hiryuu through a camera lens; Laura hands him a box]]
/ Laura: Look... You have to push the brands... Let'e do a camera test. Practice a spiel.
/ Hiryuu: But...
/ Laura: Just DO it! / [[Hiryuu is on camera and stares in puzzlement at the box in his hand]] / [[Hiryuu, on camera, points at the box]]

/ Hiryuu: Meh. / [[Pete throws up his hands in exasperation while Hiryuu annoyedly addresses the camera]]
/ Cameraman (off-panel): "Meh?" Why meh?
/ Hiryuu: Because I'm tired of being co-opted for my ethnic background. / [[Hiryuu continues to address the camera]]
/ Hiryuu: I mean, people find out about my race, and then they assume I must be into all the weird, random, Japano-cultural THINGS out there. Meanwhile, I'm trying to be ME, and I'm fielding dumb questions from anime-watching idiots.
/ Hiryuu: I like Tintin. And pizza. I'm partial to green eyes. WESTERN stuff. Yet, people never want to hear about THAT. / [[Pete leans on the counter as Hiryuu goes back to reading]]
