  • PANEL 1: Eddie surveys the set, muttering Holy shit, wait. Is this the set for-- Dusty suddenly looks up. PANEL 2: Dusty looks over to Eddie as Eddie's eyes spark with recognition. The two of them say Red, Black, and Pink! at the same time. PANEL 3: Dusty's face lights up and he says Hell yeah! You know it? Eddie smiles, but doesn't face Dusty since he can't see him. Eddie replies I grew up watching it! Mai keeps staring down at the fake blood. She asks Okay, but, why is there blood..? PANEL 4: Eddie strikes a pose and says It's fake! It was a murder mystery! The owner of the local diner gets whacked one day-- PANEL 5: Dusty also strikes a pose, saying And it's up to two gals, Kel and Kacey, two strangers from two completely different worlds, to solve the mystery!

  • PANEL 1: Eddie begins to shapeshift, saying Hold on, let me get into character. Nathan stares at him and says What the fuck are you talking about? PANEL 2: Eddie shapeshifts into a woman with pale skin and curly light hair, wearing a greaser outfit and a bandanna. This person doesn't have any color and is colored in black and white. Eddie acts out the scene, saying What makes you think you've got what it takes? A frilly little thing like you would faint lookin' at red hair dye! PANEL 3: To Nathan's delight, Eddie shapeshifts to the other character in this scene. This character is a woman with curly hair tied up in a bun, dark skin, and a pink lady outfit. She also lacks color and is in black and white. Eddie says I would not! Remember who patched up that nasty skid on your leg, missy! PANEL 4: Eddie shapeshifts again, displaying the bloody injury on the character's leg. PANEL 5: The character stares down at the injury on her leg. PANEL 6: Eddie shapeshifts back into the Pink Lady again, saying And that's not even the worst motorcycle accident I've seen!
