If you look at it from the right angle, Marigold is performing a Senator Palpatine on Momo in Panel 2. Actually, once you've seen that I don't think you can unsee it  :-P

She's drunk, for what is almost certainly the first time in her life, given her clear inexperience with beer and wine. It's entirely plausible she did forget.

What does "finish this instance" mean? I presume an "instance" is a game session, but why is it called that?

LeeC:
its another name for dugeon.  I dunno, when I first started playing when WoW first came out, its just what everyone called it.

Simple: The game creates specific "worlds" for each player so they can be The Hero even when there are 50'000 other players killing the same beasts. Any such world which is custom-created for one (or a small group) of players is an instance of the general world - i.e., where the general world description might only have information of the form "Here be 5 goblins", when a player actually comes along and enters the critical area, the game instantiates 5 actual goblins with stats that are carried throughout the session the player is having. If the player logs out prematurely, these instances might be deleted and his progress would be lost.
