Look, Jason, play to your strengths. Joe is a conversationalist and…
… I’m not really sure how much you know about cars, and Joe is technically a super mega amazing engineer who once built a hoverscooter out of a ping pong ball table, and…
Hrm.
Okay, Jason has a point.
Poor, useless Jason.
Um. Black smoke from under the hood is generally a bad thing. Like a “put the fire out first” kind of bad thing.
I always have to look at this strip multiple times before realizing that it’s smoke coming from the car and not a tree in the background.
So, uh, I didn’t realise that it wasn’t a background tree until I read the comments. Then I scrolled back up, was like… “no.. it’s still a tree? Wait, I guess it could be smoke, but.”

Jason, buddy, better put on a gas mask if you’re standing right in the smoke.
Joe would probably be better at fixing the car. But then Jason would have to try to make conversation with the girl, and Joe seems to be better at that as well.
If I were the girl, I think I’d rather the car got fixed and I had a lousy conversation than having a nice chat with Jason while the cloud of smoke kept getting bigger.
Nice chat with Joe. Because that’s the whole point of the comment.
You say that until Joe actually fixes the car, and you find out that now you car is a misanthropic asshole.
could be worse–they could be SUPER FRIENDLY and LIKE YOU
share and enjoy
I’m trying to figure out what that black thing at the edge of the smoke cloud in panel 3 is.
I think that’s Jason covered in soot?
I think it’s Jason poking his head out from the side of the car/smoke, to respond to Joe.
Trap?
