Panel 2 has Les talking with who he imagines are “Hollywood” people. The bald guy is not Lisa, and the woman is not anyone we’ve met.
OK, now that that’s cleared up…Les continues to psych himself out of the movie deal. “They’re going to want to change it…” Yes, sunshine, change it from a book to a movie. It’s a necessary step. In the HOLLYWOOD of Les’ mind, the Philistines are already hacking away. Late Night’s Paul Shaffer (when did he get into the movie biz?) wants to revise some crucial plot points, based on “some preliminary sampling”, and Les is aghast at the suggestion. Back in the “real” world, even Lisa has had it with Doubting Les, raising her hand to hopefully deliver a much needed bitchslap.
