Transcript:
Linus holds up a sign which rads, "Prophet".<BR><BR> Lucy and Linus are seated on the floor. Lucy is flipping channels on the TV and Linus is sucking his thumb. He asks, "Is that all you ever do, watch repeats?" Lucy snaps, "Buzz off!"<BR><BR> Linus sighs. Lucy adds, facing the TV, "Stop that stupid sighing!"<BR><BR> "There's nothing wrong with sighing," Linus protests. "There is if it bugs someone!" retorts Lucy.<BR><BR> "It's scriptural!" declares Linus. "It's what?!" says Lucy.<BR><BR> 'Linus quotes, "Likewise the spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.'"<BR><BR> Linus walks away, explaining, "Romans....Eighth chapter!"<BR><BR> Lucy frowns, saying: "I don't know...I'm either going to have to slug him or start going back to Sunday school!"<BR><BR>

Re:Panel 4-No,Lucy, there really is nothing wrong with sighing—we do it all the time, and furthermore, like Linus even explains, it’s good for the soul, according to the Bible. So why should it bother someone?

In this case ONLY, Lucy, you’d be better off slugging him.
