Duke: What I want you to consider, Stan, are all the advantages of conducting your MDMA research right here on our lovely Baby Doc campus! Among other things, you could synthesize your compounds in total safety, far from the long hair arm of U.S. justice! Honey: But, sir, do we have the right facilities here, the elaborate set-up required for purifying pharmaceuticals? Duke: Oh, hell, Honey, all he needs is an old garbage can. Stan: Carefully sterilized, of course.

I definitely love the detail in GT’s work. After Satansspawn pointed out the olive, I started really looking & that’s when you see in the 3rd panel when Honey speaks, Stan’s eyes look in her direction and his arm changes position into a reactive pose. But all is well by the end.
