Decaf - Sheldon® Comic Strip

PANEL 1: Two Ethiopian men - one holding a small cup, one a hooked staff, stand next to eachother talking.
MAN 1: Remember that drink I invented yesterday?
MAN 2: The one that tastes AWFUL?

PANEL 2: Closer in on the two men talking.
MAN 1: Yeah! I found out it helps keep you awake.
MAN 2: Oh! Is there a way to remove the part that tastes awful?

PANEL 3: MAN 1 holds the cup, looking at it.
MAN 1: No, but there IS a way to remove the part that keeps you awake.

PANEL 4: MAN 2 starts to walk away as MAN 2, eyes wide, responds.
MAN 2: Who would THAT be for…?
MAN 1: ..FOR THE DEEPLY UNHAPPY.
NARRATION: Decaf is invented
