Page Summary: Our heroes interact…(Hotel California humor). Billy retreats to the safety of the bathroom.
Panel 1. Long Shot. Nick continues to play, explaining the music to STOLTZ. Billy is conjuring up a toothbrush in the bathroom.
NICK: AND THEN THERE’S A BIG OLE GUITAR SOLO. IT’S A CLASSIC–WHERE I COME FROM.
NICK: YOU MEAN YOU’VE NEVER HEARD OF THE EAGLES?
BILLY: KINDA. WEREN’T THEY A COUNTRY BAND?
SFX (Billy): vvvVVMM
Panel 2. Close on Nick, as he converses with Billy.
NICK: WELL, YEAH, AT FIRST. MAN, YOU MISSED OUT.
BILLY (OP): WELL, IT’S NO “STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN,†BUT I LIKE IT.
NICK: THANK GOD YOU AT LEAST HAD ZEPPELIN.
BILLY (OP): NATCH.
Panel 3. Medium shot. As Stoltz remarks on Nick’s performance, Billy brushes his teeth.
STOLTZ: VERY INTERESTING, THIS “ROCK AND ROLL.†I’M SORRY MY WORLD NEVER SAW IT.
NICK: YOU’RE KIDDING ME.
NICK: NO WONDER HITLER TOOK OVER.
STOLTZ: ACTUALLY, IT WAS THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
