Panel 1: Sara walks into the dark hallway, carrying a box. With an "Oof!", she bumps into someone that says "Ow!"

Panel 2: The bottom of the box tears open and a bunch of books fall out. Sara says "Aah, I'm sorry! Shit."

Panel 3: A tall man with dark hair wearing a black Slowdive t-shirt flicks the light switch on, saying, "The light's fine. That switch is busted." Sara looks embarrassed.

Panel 4: The man with the dog walks away and the dog pauses to sniff Sara. She says, "Uh--thanks?"

Panel 5: Sara starts picking up books in the hall as Frances looks out from the doorway. Frances asks, "Who was that?" and Sara answers, "No idea."

Panel 6: Frances looks after where Andrew just was. "Well, he was seriously rude. (And kind of hot.)"

Panel 7: Frances stands with her hands on her hips at Sara's front door, looking inside her new apartment. Sara's holding some of the books that just fell out of the box. Frances says, "So you need some major redecorating help in this place..."

Panel 8: A paper's taped to the door that reads "Garbage Tuesday / Rent due first [of month]. The corner of the paper's turned up; Sara looks at it and says, "Huh."

Panel 9: Sara pulls the paper off the door and looks at its reverse side; it has a black square with the word VOIDS underneath it. She says, "Well, that's weird."

Vaselines / Son of a Gun (1992) / YouTube

Son of a Gun was famously covered by Nirvana (who covered several Vaselines songs). Less famously, the Vaselines covered Divine's You Think You're a Man in 1987 and if you've never encountered it you should definitely check out Divine's 1984 original.
