Panel 1: Sara, hands in pockets, says, "Well, thank you for that. And I'm sorry for leaving rambling messages..." Frances looks at the ground.

Panel 2: A view of Sara's black Converse and Frances' black Mary Janes, with a tails-up penny on the sidewalk between them. Frances says, "It's killing you to not pick that up, isn't it?"

Panel 3: Sara tilts her head and replies, "Maybe I'm trying something too..."

Panel 4: A middle-aged man in a knit hat appears near them and Sara says, "Uh -- I have to go though. Work! I'll call you later." Frances, one hand on her hip, says, "You're always quick-exiting! Whatever. Talk to you later, doll."
