A Devil's Bargain

Help Desk, by Christopher B. Wright

Comic Transcript

APPLE OPERATIVE: Hello, Binky. You don't know me.. but I know you. And I cannot help but be saddened by your present circumstances.

BINKY: Mmph?

APPLE OPERATIVE: Abandoned by your creator, cast off by your company, hog-tied by ethernet cable in the back closet of an obscure IT department... it seems you have few friends and many enemies.

BINKY: Mph!

APPLE OPERATIVE: I can help, however. Rather... my employee can help. I'm here to offer you a place -- a place with us -- and the chance to leave behind all the hatred and disgust you instil in everyone you meet.

BINKY: Mmph.

APPLE OPERATIVE: If you agree to come with me, my employer will offer you a job. A new family. New friends. And you will be remade... reborn... into something new. Something... wonderful. All you need to do is say "yes."

BINKY: Ymph!

APPLE OPERATIVE: I... don't understand what you're trying to say.

BINKY: Ymph! Ymph!

APPLE OPERATIVE: ... maybe you could try nodding.

BINKY: YMPH ymph ymph ymph ymph!
