Transcript:
Michael: Lawrence, you weren't born in Ecuador! Lawrence: No, I was born in Canada! My mom met my father while she was working in Ecuador. He was a doctor. Still is. He lives in Brazil somewhere. His name is Pablo da Silva. He specializes in tropical diseases, or something. When Mom left Ecuador, she was expecting me. My father promised to meet her here and marry her. Michael: What happened? Lawrence: I dunno... But by my watch, he's a little late.
When Lawrence was young, in some strips he was drawn with a much darker skin complexion than Mike and others.
