Words spoken out loud appear within white bubbles. I’m including the full text of the dialog for the visually impaired.
Author notes at the end of the work.
When Frieda enters the office she shares with three other grad student T.A.s, her friend Janet cries out:
Janet: “Hey, Frieda! I caught your plant-murderer!”
Frieda: “Wait — so it was someone unplugging the lamps maliciously?”
Janet: “Yup, come watch this!”
Janet: “He looked directly at the cam! You couldn’t STAGE a more incriminating video of Sneaky Stanley sabotaging your plants.”
Frieda: “But WHY?! My lamps are even energy-efficient!”
Janet: “His advisor won’t stop gushing about you and your grants. He’s just jealous. Typical.”
Janet, smaller text: “Although the best part has to be that he wore a black turtleneck and hat — like it’s a bad heist movie!”
Frieda: “That does suck but my plants are innocent! I guess I should take them home…”
Janet: “Yeah, probably. Oh, you should have your ‘friend’ Talako help you! He looks strong and smitten enough to help you carry many heavy objects.” (Janet’s expression is best described as a ‘leer.’)
Frieda: “Janet!” (minor freak-out expression)
