The Community, Issue 1: Part 2.1

Page 7

Panel 1: A short time later, they are helping mop up the spice and canned food section of the aisle. Seanna has the same type of KCCO attitude; their condition worsening slowly but surely compared to the end of the previous page.

SEANNA

(thought bubble)

Just hold it together a little while longer- till lunch. Then I can clock out and...

Panel 2: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. They stop mopping moments later upon seeing something taking place at the aisle.

R#1

(Off-Panel, to Man)

Haven't you caused enough damage, Chink?!

Panel 3: Cut to a shot of what Watkins is seeing- a pair of taller 40-something white guys moving up on a South Asian man a little bit younger than them with his daughter.

R#1

(Cont., incensed)

Your people unleashed a pandemic that kills thousands of people...

R#2

(jumping in)

Cost me my job!

R#1

(Bubble 2)

Tanked the entire freakin' economy, while you guys strut about like your shit doesn't stink.

R#2

(Bubble 2)

​You sicken me!

Panel 4: Slight close-up on the group a moment later. R#2 glares over at his compatriot with a moment of sick inspiration.

R#2

(Cont.)

Ya know what he needs? A little moment of enlightenment. They always go ga-ga for that godless...

SEANNA

(Off-Panel, interjecting)

Can I help you guys with anything?

Panel 5: Cut to Seanna standing a handful of feet from the two of them. They conjure up a little bit of intimidation through the puff in their chest, though still with the charm of customer service in their eyes.

SEANNA

(Cont.)

There's a sale on 6-packs of Sierra Nevada. I'm not much of a drinker, but booze is a pretty good salve for quarantine anxiety.

Panel 1: The two of them look at each other for a brief moment, silently weighing what to do next. You can see the customer in the middle, nervously anticipating what darkness may come.

Panel 2: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. R#1 nods with grated teeth, flashing an appearance of cordiality that hides the contempt for Seanna bubbling within. You can also see part of it in R#2 too as he turns back around. ​

R#2

(under their breath, directed at the customer)

Got lucky...

(to Seanna)

Fuckin' fag!

Panel 3: As the two of them leave, the customer in question looks over and nods appreciatively at Seanna for the intrusion.

CUSTOMER

(to Seanna)

Thanks.

Panel 4: Back to a shot of Seanna giving a silent nod along with a slight grin alongside it. You can see their right hand- gripping the middle of the mop- start to shake in place.

SEANNA

(to Customer)

No...p--roblem.

Panel 5: Same setting/layout as Panel 3. He notices the shaking hand, and his body language shifts immediately toward one of concern.

CUSTOMER

You okay?

Panel 6: We move back to Seanna in the same setting/layout as Panel 4. They nod timidly, trying to contain inside the sickness spike bubbling inside.

SEANNA

Mmm-hmm...

(thought bubble)

Can't hold out any longer!​
