I had a vision in my mind of this comic. Louise was going to be looking up at the bookcase from Coach's office, and she'd be reaching up in the background of the middle two strips. Then I discovered that the background I'd made for the office was entirely the wrong size (made as it was from a panel of the lower-res comics I was working with in those days), and I was short of time, so this is what you get. I hope it still makes sense.

Apologies for the lack of funny! I'm getting this plot thing underway. It will all make sense, I promise.
