Original Commentary

We've seen Kimberly complain about the lights in the hallway before. It's a set of two lights. One works, the other flickers - Terrence

When I showed this comic to Terrence, he had a problem with it- he didn't like the fact that Lola was only handing Kimberly one tape. He had meant for her to have lots of them. I explained she can only fit so much into that apron of hers and reworded the script so, in the end, there will be more tapes. Thus, the equilibrium is maintained. -Isabel

Modern Commentary
WCW Monday Nitro and WWE Raw were, at times, three hours long. "A few episodes" could be several business days worth of content.

Raw would, back when we were watching it, have overruns so it'd go to three and a quarter hours, which is entirely too long for a weekly episode of anything. It wore out its welcome after about two hours; after that, we didn't care who won or lost as long as the show ended. That was about when we stopped watching. I was like there are movies - good movies - that are shorter than this.

Also, the line in the last panel was originally "I'll bring the others to your apartment later tonight". I adjusted that to specify that she's bringing over videotapes. I don't like to rewrite things too much, but you've got to be clear sometimes. - Terrence
