Ray is none too happy about drinking the inverse wine.

Theguy's head is seeping. I wouldn't put anything he gave me into my body.

Yet Ray responds to the possibility of alcohol with a quickness!

I think Ray jerked quickly to get the glass just because this whole Cartilege head situation was so uncomfortable that he is desperate to do what it takes.

Kind of like when you're a dorky teenage boy and you first meet your girlfriend's strict father. He offers his hand to you, it takes you a second to realize you're supposed to shake it, and then you jerk your hand into his.

I assumed he was more weeping than seeping.

He's weeping what he's seeping.

I would drink absolutely anything that might make me less conscious or alive, by this point.

Man, the inverse wine bottle is the coolest thing ever. I would pay significant money for one of those.

this was the coolest idea ever, I want that wine bottle

Because of Science.

What we need less of is science

What we need more of is Magical Realism.

I can sort of see how it could be done.
At the bottom of the bottle you can see a small indentation which conceals the outlet for the wine reservoir. A reservoir as wide as the table but only half an inch thick could hold at least one bottle and could still be hidden from a casual search. The bottom of the wine glass has a small valve (the kind found in a vein) made of transparent rubber with a hollow stalk. When pushed down a concealed transparent pipe from the reservoir is pushed through the valve by the weight of the glass. The pump is then activated out of sight, a button under the table most likely. The wine going through the stalk is hidden because the stream is thin, note how long it takes to fill, and the glass reflecting off glass obscures the fluid. The glass is then twisted off the hidden pipe, or the pipe slowly withdrawn, so the valve remains airtight as the glass is given to your terrified friend.

The only problem off the top of my head is that of hiding the sound of a pump. But Cartilage Head seems like he'd have music playing.

Make this happen.

I just thought you could get the pump issue by using a long enema tube with a squeezy ball pump instead of a reservoir. Ten foot or so could make a kink free circuit under the table, perhaps with a fake bottom, whilst it already comes with a tapered end for easy insertion. The down sides? Using the squeezy pump unseen and the fact you have to ask the girl in the chemist for "a massive enema set".

I have many enema sets in my house!

This is not something I should tell everyone!

Wow, this is the only asherdan comment I've seen that doesn't have at least 3 'lames'.

...the hell?

I swear, I saw an asherdan comment recently, with 16 chubbies and ZERO lames. If you can beat that, I guess I owe you a dollar.

Hint: I think you can not do this.

Words become superfluous with such eloquent eyebrows.

I love Ray's hurry to get his glass in panel 3. Like he's thinking "yes! wine! I know what wine is! wine is good!" And then that bottle yanks the floor from under him. He can't even trust wine anymore.

I think Ray is actually thinking, "OH FUCK! OH FUCK!" and probably has been for the past twenty minutes.

Listen a seven-foot guy with rubber bones and black eyes has you cornered in his art-nouveau apartment. You are going to do anything he says with quickness and what you hope is a veneer of enthusiasm.

seriously, this needs to be a short animated film

The walking cadaver implores you to drink the un-wine.
