What did your mom pack you for lunch today? A juice... An apple... Um, to fig bars and a bologna sandwich. I'll trade you for the sandwich! What do you even have to trade? I won't pester you for the fig bars.
That trade is full of bologna; that is how a protection racket starts. Pay the danegeld or they will raid your village. Give up the sandwich or you will get pestered for the fig bars.
I don’t remember juice bottles that small when I was his age, which is about the period in which this strip is set (remember, we haven’t gone to the moon here yet; the original Star Trek has barely premiered).

My IS (Irish Setter) used to like fig bars, but has since decided she doesn’t like them anymore… Good thinking, Rover! ;)

Rover has mastered the fine art of negotiation!

Rover could pester me for anything and come out a winner. But then, he already is a winner so nevermind.
