Original Commentary

In the old days, I probably would've had two comics involving Kimberly getting to work carrying the cake batter. I'm trying to work on pacing, because I need to - I can be too slow sometimes. Kimberly doesn't visit the lounge much. And she doesn't usually ride to work with Richard and Sinclair, but she got a ride with them today because of the cake. At least she had the sense to put it in a cake pan before she left. The oven mitt was Isabel's idea - Terrence

Modern Commentary
Yes, Richard and Sinclair would drop everything to help someone bake a cake. No questions asked. No explanation needed. It's just assumed.

If this plan had worked, would Kimberly have shared it with them? I mean, it's too much cake for two people to eat in a single sitting. She wouldn't have minded leaving the leftovers in the break room for them. But I can easily see Brisbane making the suggestion first and Kimberly agreeing. - Terrence
