Thatâs not the original Alfonse on the bottom panel. I didnât like him the ďŹrst time around, so I redrew him in my sketchbook and pasted him in over the other one.
The background in the bottom frame was also redrawn when I printed the ďŹrst edition. The original drawing of the place had more in common with my suburban apartment than a Gold Coast condo.
Panel 1: Kate knocks on 1204.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Panel 2: She peers into the peep hole.
Panel 3: Kate and Mike hold up their badges as Alfonse looks out his peep hole.
Mike and Kate: Hi Alfonse!
Panel 4: Alfonse opens the door and looks past the chain, shakin’ in his “boots”.
Alfonse: oh, no… oh man, geez…
Panel 5: Kate gets suddenly serious.
Kate: Alright. Open up.
Panel 6: Alfonse reluctantly opens up.
Alfonse: How’d you–?
Panel 7: Kate and Mike walk in, Mike attempting a horrible Russian impersonation.
Mike: Ve haf vays.
Page Background: Mike and Kate look around the apartment, Alfonse is again shakin’ in his boots.
Mike: Wow. Sure is a nice place you have here, Alfonse.
Kate: I don’t know…just the idea of you in a fancy joint like this–smells like probable cause to me.
Alfonse: You guys got nuthin’ on me…
