PAGE 30 (Four panels)

Panel One: Hope and Brian looking down at something sketched out on a kitchen table down at which Hope is pointing.

Caption: I have to explain my something to the boyfriend.

Panel Two: Brian and Hope facing each other across the kitchen table. Brian looks horrified, Hope quietly determined.

Brian: This is insane! You’re sitting there with a straight face and telling me you want to commit suicide…

Hope: It isn’t suicide, Brian. All of those women are still legally alive.

Panel Three: Close-up view of one of the brains floating in the tube.

Caption: What sort of life are you proposing? A future as a disembodied brain floating in a tube full of goo?

Caption: It’s not like there’s any return from that..

Panel Four: View of a partially-constructed female cyborg lying on a table in a laboratory.

Caption: Not necessarily. There are future possibilities. Surgical transplantation to a vat-grown clone. Or full-body cybernetic prosthesis…
