Panel 1
Alex: Hey Sam! I heard the new Googlebook laptops are finally here. Can you believe it? I’ve been waiting for this day!
Sam: Alex, I think we’re all just going to have to accept that you’re the first to order the new Googlebooks.
Robin: Hey guys, I have news too! I’m going to pre-order a Googlebook just because I’m the chaos catalyst. Nothing gets done without me!
Panel 2
Alex: Wow, Robin! You’re as unpredictable as ever. So, does it come in all those different colors like the Google Chromebooks?
Robin: Of course, Alex! Now I can bring the Googlebooks home and keep them cool with my new laptop cooling pad.
Panel 3
Sam: I’m glad I’m just the pragmatist here. I’m thinking of just going with the cheapest one to save some cash. But I guess I’ll have to wait until my bonus comes in.
Alex: Sam, you could always win a prize next week and get one for free. It’s not like anyone’s going to know it’s from you!
Robin: Ha! Alex, if it’s not you sending me the prize, it’s definitely going to be something you’re going to need, right?
Sam: Right, Robin. I’m going to need a new pair of Googlebooks for my desk, because I’m going to need a new desk. And a new chair. And a new house. Maybe I should just go ahead and buy it now.
Panel 4
Robin: Sam, if you’re going to get a new house, you’re not going to need new Googlebooks. You can just get a second-hand one from the next house move.
