BUBBLE8: ESPECIALLY with guys who embarrass me.

087:
BUBBLE1: Still,

BUBBLE4: So?
BUBBLE5: This isn't mom!

sfx: ngu (swallow)

BUBBLE6: Oh my. Adulterer!

BUBBLE2: This "affair" he's having could be the trigger to meeting your mom.

BUBBLE3: What "affair?"

BUBBLE4: I get it....

BUBBLE9: Mom's going to die!
BUBBLE10: You have to save her, Daddy!

102:
BUBBLE1: Save her!

BUBBLE2: Okay.

BOX1: At that moment,
BOX2: I sort of had the feeling
BUBBLE1: Dad, if you cheat on mom, I'll never forgive you, okay?
BUBBLE2: Okay, okay.
BOX3: that "history" did change.
BUBBLE3: I'm not gonna let that happen!
