   A worthy goal, young Petey.

   The underneath of Petey’s bed would make an intriguing shoebox diorama.

   He should consider a career at the American Museum of Natural History.

   Petey wouldn’t get near any of those taxidermy specimens. He also hasn’t demonstrated a talent for extremely realistic depictions of nature.

   I can see it now: The Peter Otterloop, Jr., Diorama Museum of World History! A massive modernist structure completely dominating the small town of Cul de Sac (probably designed by Frank Gehry)!

   Sounds like a nirvana for spiders, if you ask me.

   What is the purpose of panel 1 in this strip?

   A connection to the previous strips and a reason for Alice to be in Petey’s room.

   And to give Petey the opportunity to congratulate Alice on her neurosis.

    …and the irony of being afraid of the tube slide, but not the spider- and diorama-breeding ground under Petey’s bed….

    Up here in WI, maybe spiders, but more likely moths and larder beetles. In FL, roaches, roaches, and roaches.

    It’s a segue to connect this strip to previous strips that ran this week.

    Love that second panel! Alice is a hoot!

    As long as the shoe boxes are sealed the spiders will have to spin webs between them.
