Panel 1:
(In the hallway outside the server room, Johnny encounters Penny, who carries her backpack.)
Johnny: You’re leaving? I thought you were having lunch with the new boss at the chinese place?
Penny: I was. He’s making me take some time off.
Panel 2:
(Penny starts off, slinging her backpack over her shoulder.)
Penny: We need to get the Bobs back.
Johnny: Sure, but, hey! A vacation? That’s great!
Panel 3:
(They walk along the hall, talking.)
Penny: No, it isn’t.
Johnny: It’s not? And wait – did you say you want the Bobs back?
Panel 4:
Penny: You know the old saying: better the devil you know… than the new one whose nostrils you just impaled with chopsticks.

Oh-ho… this’ll be fun!
If by “this”, you mean Penny’s out-of-office experience… well, she won’t be out too long this time. The whole crew will be out & about for some serious adventure in a little over a month… but that’s all the teaser you get for now
100 strips? Congrats.
@ MrGBH: Thanks! When I was building my first few strips for a buffer, 100 seemed an eternity away. Now I feel like I’ve barely started!
Indeed, congrats on the 100 mile stone!
