Come to London

Now this is how you get rid of a guy in A3G. Without killing him, I mean.

Part one: send him to London! MI6 is calling, Greg. You'd better answer! There's only so many scenes we can film here before the movie starts looking "too New Yorky" and "not Britishy enough." Plus the buildings here keep diappearing.

Part two: make Margo care about her job! LOOK, Greg, Margo is a working woman. She has loads of clients (potentially), a boatload of PR events to attend (if she feels like it), press releases to write (when she gets around to it), and Google searches to run (BINGO!). And someone is going to have to passive-aggressively welcome Skyler when she comes crawling back from Aunt Cathy's PR Palace. E... Even though she should probably be in London too.

Part three: dial back Margo from feisty to gloomy! (AKA "pull a Tommie") It's like the ultimate turnoff. Margo is says, "There aren't many days left," referencing her upcoming death due to lung failure/the apocalypse and Greg is just like, "Gee, sweetie, wish you could come to my flat with me! Call me! No texting or Skype though! K? Gotta go, byyyyyyye!"

Is it just me or is Greg storing nuts in his cheek pouches? Maybe he's smuggling his nuts in to the U.K.

Filming is about 6-9 months in the UK. Call everyday? That's a big commitment. How about we play it by ear and see how we feel in the actual A3G passage of time? I was nice knowing you Greg.

This strip is set in February 1964. There is no Skype or Internet. Greg has to go to the UK to film GOLDBLAZER and Margo has a new group of clients flying in from London: Four British businessmen named Lennon, McCartney, Harrison, and Starr.

No dialogue needed in today's strip. Their body language says it all.
Margo: "Good lord, does this man ever let up?"
Greg: "Margo! Margo! Hey, over here, Margo! Look at ME!"
Margo: "Easy there, kiddo. Back off with your hot breath."
Greg: "U so special. I luvs u. Y u no luv me? Mustard blazer not your thing?"

You'd think buildings would disappear into a black void, wouldn't you? In A3-G Land, buildings disappear into white light!
