Transcript:
Homer the Reluctant Soul. The Roman adventure continues. Banking on their regard for human life, I told my captors that I needed live bait to complete the wolf trap I constructed to protect their livestock. They did not disappoint... Woman: Give him the slave girl. What they hadn't figured out yet was the real function of it was to trap them, not wolves... But to pull off the escape, I had to keep up the charade and wait to tell the girl what I was really doing... Girl: Why are you doing this to me? Homer: Shh... Almost there. Now...run! Girl: What?! Into the wolf-infested woods? Homer: Either that or back to Signora Spietato. Girl: Oh...great choice. We need to talk about your communication skills, shepherd-boy... Homer: Ok, but let's survive the night first.

The slavers are none too swift; why would you need bait in the woods when the trap is around the pig pen?

The shepherd prolly knows a trick or two to keep the wolves at bay.

How do you prefer your crow prepared, argy-bargy? Grilled, roasted or fried? :-)

I was wondering how long it’d take for someone to point that out! Much longer than I thought it would take. Thanks!

What you’re saying is that slavery may be better than the alternative. It has gotten such a bad rap over the years!

I really wish they would tell this tale in the daily comics. I can’t remember week to week what I’ve read and I’m not going to go back every week. I’d like to get to the end of this already!

This is still boring. As promised, I’m out of here — permanently.
