YES.
*snerk* I shall now pontificate on how I interpret it after a couple ...... okay, a dozen scan troughs before coming to the forums.
As was pointed out in earlier posts, it started as a flashback. Then pintsize interjected with his version of what happened next.
You know that, more than likely, you could and would do the same thing when someone is telling a story that you are both intimately familiar with, and know just exactly when to step in with a few choice words to mess with everyone.
[wow that is one runon stream of semiconsciousness. Should insert punctuation or rewrite it though. nah.]

I'm a bit torn between two options:
1) Panels 2,3 and 4 Pintsize is telling a story, panel 4 is obviously typical Pintsize
2) Panels 2 and 3 Marten is telling about how he came to the office, and then Pintsize interrupts and keeps on telling the story, as told in panel 4, totally making Marten mad, and Momo scandalized.
Either way, the beginning of the story is somewhat believable, and panel 4 is just a joke by Pintsize.
I saw earlier in the thread that someone told about "shirt discontinuity"
I would not be surprised that Jeph's initial intention would have been to use the discontinuity as a clue that the infringin panel was a spin off the initial thread, indicating that panels 2 and 3 were Marten's and panel 4 Pintsize's. But I haven't seen such discontinuity, since it is also claimed in the thread that such discontinuity has been "fixed".

Just like how Claire helped Clinton tell how he lost his hand ...
Carl-E:
Excellent example! And the reactions are almost identical, too!
