Say, is this place a diner or a coffee shop? Georgia and Cherry are just hanging around doing a lot of talking, but not ordering anything.

In any event, it looks like this story line maintains its more serious, sober approach (compared with Mark’s more outrageous adventures). Cherry certainly takes the bees’ bad news badly, but not finally.

Georgia’s fatalistic frustration sets up Cherry’s sudden, energized decision in panel 4 to flex her mental and physical muscles and start doing … what? Clearly, Cherry has more “get-up-and-go” than “I-know-where-to-go”, since she is not a bee expert. Perhaps she has another family member who is. Still, we cannot deny her commitment. And let’s hope that commitment is resilient, because Rivera will likely resume Mark’s fishing trip adventure on Monday and not return to Cherry’s story for another two or three weeks.
