4-panel daily strip
Setting: Still in Binkley's dad's bedroom. Dad sleeping snuggled under his blanket. Binkley standing on the bed, head lolling forward, asleep as well. All four panels liberally sprinkled with sleepy symbols.
Panel 1:
Binkley: zzzz.. snort...
Dad: zzz...
Panel 2:
Binkley (arms fling wide, screaming): "HOT POLAR BEARS!!"
Dad (covers flying in the air, jumps horizontally eight inches, face in a rictus of terror, screaming): "AAIGH!"
Panel 3:
Binkley (standing, lolling head, talking loudly): "Glaciers melting! Sweaty bears! Let's collect ice from the neighbors zzzz... snort zzzz..."
Dad (sitting up, hands holding head, look of abject angst on his face, yelling): "JEEEZUS! BINKLEY! YA CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS!!"
Panel 4:
Binkley (facing away from bed to leave room, eyes finally open a little bit): "They're just my 'nocturnal emissions', Dad."
Dad (lifting up the sheets over his lap and looking underneath, speaking angrily): "Then YOUR bed should be wet, not mine!"
