Single panel: Eliza assumes a position, vertical in the water, the sun shining down from the surface, the water blue around her, her arms outstretched, her hair streaming in the water, her eyes closed, her expression blissful.
Single panel: Eliza, in full pin-up mode, sits naked on the railing facing out to sea. She’s turned her head around and is smiling and waving at the men.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (1): There doesn’t seem to be much hesitation in this moment of truth.
Translation (1): In dieser Stunde der Wahrheit gibt es kein Zögern mehr.
SFX – STILL MORE MALE VOCAL EXCITEMENT (2): Cheers, whistles, and applause.
Panel 1: View down the deck. A bunch of men, sailors and science guys, are lined up a few feet from the rail, leaving a path between themselves and the rail for Eliza to walk along. Eliza is emerging up onto deck from a gangway to below decks, just coming into view in the panel.
Panel 2: Same view as in Panel 1, Eliza walking down the deck toward the viewer of the panel, past the lined-up men, still a bit distant from the P.O.V. of the viewer.
Panel 3: Eliza, a bit closer to thew viewer of the Panel, in the act of lifting off her cotton shirt (which, at the discretion of the artist, can read GNOSIS COLLEGE), exposing her breasts. This elicits a reaction of mounting excitement from the men lined up. The lifting-off of Eliza’s shirt shows that she wasn’t wearing any bra.
SFX – EXCITEMENT AMONG THE CREW (1): …murmuring…
Translation (1): …murmel…
Panel 4: Eliza, now quite close to the viewer of the panel, in the act of whipping off her skirt, which reveals that she wasn’t wearing any panties either. The men around her are reacting quite excited by now.
SFX – MORE MALE VOCAL EXCITEMENT (2): OH YEAH OH YEAH BABY OH AWESOME OH YEAH!
Translation (2): OH JA OH JA BABY OH WAHNSINN OH JA!
Panel 1: Eliza, in her typical shirt and skirt getup, being interviewed in a cabin aboard the ship.
Eliza (1): Will I really go through with it? Of course I’m going through with it!
Translation (1): Werde ich das wirklich durchziehen? Natürlich werde ich das durchziehen!
Panel 2: Eliza in another part of the ship, lifting a glass of water to her lips, presumably to help her down the capsule which Hiram, who is standing off to the side and leering slightly, has just given to her.
CAPTION – ELIZA NARRATING (2): This is the ride of a lifetime. I’m not giving up that chance.
Translation (2): Das ist das Abenteuer meines Lebens, das werde ich mir nicht entgehen lassen.
Panel 3: Eliza getting an injection from Professor Turpentine.
CAPTION – ELIZA NARRATING (3): I get to be the first woman to tell the world what this experience feels like.
Translation (3): Ich werde die erste Frau sein, die der Welt berichten kann, wie sich die Erfahrung anfühlt.
Panel 4: Eliza and Claudia walking down a narrow ship’s corridor. Claudia is explaining something to Eliza.
Claudia (4): Use your inner voice when you’re under, just like we practiced in the tank. The recording drones will be with you, but not too near.
Translation (4): Nutze deine innere Stimme, wenn du da unten bist, so wie wir es trainiert haben. Die Aufzeichnungsdrohnen werden bei dir sein, aber in einigem Abstand.
Single panel: View in the galley of the ship, probably from a high angle as this is likely to be a fairly long, narrow space. Turpentine is prominent. He’s dressed as if for a special occasion, wearing a jacket and a bow tie. Eliza and Daphne are both prominent. Among the other people in the galley should be the other characters we’ve seen so far, including Captain Drummingdale, Hiram, and Claudia. There should be others – various ship’s officers and other scientists, that sort of people. Turpintine is holding a small coin up for everyone to view.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (1): As the RV Seagoon approaches the island of Motofupo, there is a dramatic moment.
Translation (1): Als die RV Seagoon die Insel Motofupo erreicht, gibt es einen dramatischen Moment.
Turpentine (2): All right, people, now comes the moment when we decide. We are going to determine which of our brave volunteers goes first. We shall flip this twenty-dollar gold coin.
Translation (2): Alles klar, Leute, jetzt ist der Moment gekommen. Wir müssen entscheiden, welche unserer tapferen Versuchspersonen beginnen soll. Wir warden diese Zwanzig-Dollar-Goldmünze werfen.
Panel 1: Eliza standing at the boarding counter for an international flight, with Daphne behind her. A GATE AGENT is checking Eliza’s documents prior to her boarding.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (1): At long last the preparations were made. The volunteers boarded a flight for Southeast Asia…
Translation (1): Endlich waren die vorbereitungen abgeschlossen. Die Versuchspersonen reisten nach Südostasien…
Panel 2: Eliza and Daphne sitting side-by-side in large, first-class seats in a first-class cabin. Eliza is holding a flute of champagne and Daphne is reading a book.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (2): The benefactor behind the exhibition arranged for them to travel first class.
Translation (2): Der Förderer der Expedition hatte einen Erste-Klasse-Flug für sie gebucht.
Panel 3: Claudia in coach class, crammed into the middle seat of three between Hiram and another passenger. Hiram looks like he’s trying to get Claudia’s attention, perhaps even hitting on her. The other passenger, a FAT MAN, has gone to sleep. Claudia stares forward with Stoic resignation.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (3): Most of the other specialists on the exhibition had to travel in coach.
Comment (3): “in coach” as an idiomatic way of expressing something like “second (or lower) class” in air travel – the part of the aircraft with smaller, more-crowded seats and inferior service.
Translation (3): Die moisten anderen Spezialisten des Teams mussten mit der Holzklasse Vorlieb nehmen.
Panel 4: Eliza, followed by Daphne, followed by Claudia, walking up the gangway to the RV Seagoon. Eliza is wearing her typical thin cotton shirt and skirt, Daphne is in denim shorts and a T-shirt, and Claudia is in a conservative white button-down short-sleeved shirt and a dark skirt. All three are carrying bags, with Claudia’s being by far the largest.
CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION (4): After arriving in Singapore, volunteers and crew board the research vessel RV Seagoon for their venture in the South Seas.
Translation (4): Nach ihrer Ankunft in Singapur gehen die Versuchspersonen und die Crew an Bord des Forschungsschiffes RV Seagoon. Das Abenteuer in der Südsee beginnt.
Panel 1: Probably long on the side of the page. Close up view of Eliza in the giant tank wearing the “tentacle swim suit.”
Eliza (balloon with watery lines) (1): … … …
Panel 2: Close-up on a speaker on a control panel.
Eliza (radio balloon coming from speaker) (2): bzzt crackle hoff iss cocks bign faat like dis zz-pop!
Comment (2): Eliza’s underlying internal monologue here is something like “Yes! Cocks [that is, penises] big and fat like these” but obscured by transmission noise. The translation should include appropriate representations of “noise” and distortion.
