Panel 1: Frances and Sara each hold one end of a large cardboard box. Frances says, "WHO hung up on you?" and Sara answers, "The girl who moved out of here."

Panel 2: Frances and Sara are now in the back of the moving truck, sliding out the mattress. Frances says, "She's still calling you, huh?" Sara replies, "She wants me to MEET her."

Panel 3: They navigate the mattress past the side of the truck, as Frances says, "Well, aren't you at least CURIOUS about why she wants to meet?"

Panel 4: They're still trying to move the mattress; it's now bending around a corner to be able to get up on the stoop. Sara says, "Not really -- she seems insane!" Frances asks, "Where and when did she say?"

Panel 5: Sara, still pushing the mattress forward, replies, "Tonight at nine. There's a bar on this block...?"

Panel 6: The mattress is flipped on its side and they're in the process of putting it down. Frances says, "Ok, I have an idea. Go return the truck and go to the bar at nine."

Panel 7: Sara's now standing alone in her apartment. The bare mattress is on the floor and boxes surround it.

There's a remastered version of this that I just found out about but I'm linking the 12" version so you can enjoy the wonderfully strange artwork by one of the band's guitar players, Reg Smithies. (Though I wish it wasn't cropped; here's the original.) I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking this one up and thought about trying to get the single, but it's both expensive and only for sale from other countries (with hefty shipping costs). Ah well!
