Deliberate wind-up on Jeph's part, of course. 'specially on a Friday...

They are in robotic repair. Does 'swapped for titanium and re-attached' count when it comes to 'the right number of fingers'?

--- Quote from: BenRG on 02 Aug 2018, 23:20 ---Bubbles doesn't fool me; her posture in panel 3 is too practised and calculated. Either she's testing to see how Faye reacts to her doing heavy work whilst lightly clad or she's practising for her audition for the lead role in the rumoured The Evil Dead reboot movie. I'd heard that the producers had decided that chainsaws were too old school and were looking for a new gimmick! :laugh:
Oh, and Bubbles has no navel confirmed. There's just a join between her abdominals.
Seriously, I suspect that Bubbles keeps the concrete saw around as a time waster detector. If there appears to be no physical cause for her subject's complaint, she says 'I need to go in' and pulls out the saw. If the subject is then miraculously cured, she knows that there is no physical cause to find! It's an old sugeon's trick going back centuries!

To test Faye's Reaction? I think it was more of a subtle try to scare/startle Sam, but it didn't work out. Sam seems to be attracted to the dangerous things, like snakes and gasoline powered rock cutters.
Skullmaster isn't interested unless it's potentially lethal.

Also, when did Bubbles change clothes? right after cutting her hair? Admittedly, this may be better work attire, especially if you want to operate a (fast) rotating machine - no loose clothing or hair.

Quote Faye: "Yeah, they'll still be attached", so that implies Sam will retain her own body parts through this visit.
