The Working Group Number 13. Panel 1: Lindy looks shocked and disturbed and exclaims, “What in Dalmatian are you wearing??” Panel 2: Ebert is standing in front of Lindy and says, “It’s my motion capture suit.” Panel 3: Ebert heads towards a waiting golf cart and says, “If you’re here for an autograph, I don’t give those out for free anymore.” Lindy follows behind Ebert and says, “I don’t want your autograph.” Panel 4: Lindy says, “I want to be an actor.”
Panel 5: Ebert looks weary and says, “Oh one of those…” Panel 6: Ebert glances at Lindy and says, “Well unfortunately we just wrapped on the final acting performance by a dog.” Panel 7: Lindy is upset and says, “What?? How??” Ebert is now facing away from the waiting golf cart and stretches out a little in the motion capture suit. Ebert says, “The production team’s been recording all my best acting through this motion capture suit.” Panel 8: A flashback to Ebert performing in the motion capture suit while a nearby screen shows the final scene where Ebert plays a space outlaw in a cantina nursing a drink. Ebert says, “I’ve played large dogs, small dogs, a hamster who was raised by dogs, a space outlaw named Bonester Beppo… The studio can add a dog to any movie.”
Panel 9: Lindy looks dejected and says, “So that’s it? No more dog acting? Forever?” Panel 10: Lindy and Ebert are now sitting on the back of the golf cart as it moves. They’re moving past a truck with Ebert’s face on it. Ebert says happily, “Oh I’ll be fine, I’ve got some Comic-Con appearances lined up and I’m doing an off-Broadway play with Mark Rylance-“ Lindy cuts Ebert off and yells, “Who cares??” Panel 11: Lindy says angrily, “What about my career?” Panel 12: Wide shot of the golf cart moving in between giant stages on a film studio lot. Ebert says, “If you’re passionate about acting you could try indie films. The pay is bad so you’ll need two or three side hustles.” Lindy replies, “I can’t even figure out one hustle.”
Panel 13: Lindy and Ebert speed along in the golf cart. Ebert asks, “Who’s your trainer? I trained with Big Brucie, best in the biz.” Lindy replies, “Why do I need training? It’s just running around in front of a camera.” Panel 14: Ebert looks at Lindy with concern and says, “Oh honey no…” Panel 15: Ebert continues, “You’ve gotta learn to take directions, get to your mark at a certain place at a certain time.” Panel 16: Ebert stops talking suddenly and realizes something. Panel 17: Ebert is alone on the golf cart. Ebert says, “Did she just… leave??”
