SECOND PANEL: Dad is still watching with somewhat of a bewildered look on his face. Jeremy and Pierce are walking off, still deep in conversation.

JEREMY-- "So Much faster than..."
PIERCE-- "It's right around the corner."


LAST PANEL: Jeremy's dad looks to his wife and says "I'm sick of the future."

My feeling exactly, Dad.
