- Ye Thuza: The saber-toothed squirrel and her kit roam through their territory.
- Ye Thuza: Suddenly she spots prey!
- Ye Thuza: Rawr!
- Ye Thuza: Once again, the saber-toothed squirrel’s hunt ends in success!
- Ye Thuza: !
- Ye Thuza: Good evening, Mr. Miller.

I think the saber-toothed squirrel should be more aware of her surroundings.
RETURN OF THE SABER-TOOTH SQUIRREL!!! Steal her nuts! It’s super effective!
And this is why Saber-Toothed Squirrels died out.
“Here in their natural habitat, we can see a female Sabretooth Squirrel and her cub are hunting for food. In Sabretooth Squirrel families the adult female is responsible for teaching her cubs hunting, fighting and self preservation while the adult male is responsible for providing food to his family by hunting for clients and make sure they sign the contract.”
– David Attenborough.
Mr. Miller: “I am very disappointed Mr. Williams.
How could you let your wife teach your daughter such an inaccurate portrayal of the Saber-Toothed Squirrel’s hunting behavior? And you call yourself a biologist.”
Aaaaand now we have to see a real Saber-Toothed Squirrel appear in the Gaia-comic…please?
Step one whenever something like this happens: Take the straws, play-doh hat, or other various accessories off.
Step two: Put them back on, leave through door.
Fun defeats angry bald men in suits. Always.
I have to say, Ye Thuza’s face in ALL the frames is priceless–but not least the one where she grabs Mr. Miller’s foot! (>w<)
Probably the first time in a while a comic has LITERALLY made me LOL.
Ya done goofed, Ye Thuza. Ya done goofed.
The last panel is beautiful xD everyone’s faces are so epic xD
I’d like to say that this has never happened to me…I really would.
there goes ye thuza again…acting squirrelly…
Off topic question, that I can’t find the answers for. What happened to colors?
I forget, was this guy introduced before?
man, when you KNOW the kind of family you have, but you bring guests over ANYWAY, whatever happens to them is ENTIRELY your own fault.
@ 1overX:
Your post made my day.
best
mom
EVER
He does not look very impressed with her spectacular hunting skills…
Probably the funniest thing he’s had happen in years. Got anymore straws? Offer some to him.
@ Shark:
They probably don’t have time to color with Gaia AND S&W to work on.
The sabre-toothed squirrel should be more aware of what is happening in its territory!
Not shown in this documentary: the sabre-toothless boy-kit, who refuses to hunt with his mother and sister; the boy-kit’s girlfriend, who will ultimately be adopted into the pack, and transformed into another sabre-toothed squirrel, much to the boy-kit’s dismay; the radically different hunting and killing ritual employed by the sabre-toothed squirrel when both kits are absent (and will remain so for a good few hours) and the house is locked up tight… >;=)>
Explain to him you were playing with your kids. He’ll understand.
Probably.
“David: …..errr………Meow…sir…?!”
You’re doing it wrong. It should be said like this:
“Good eeeevening Mr. Miller….”
Hee hee… I’ve been there… and done that… with chopsticks too… with both my little ones! And had the same “oh dear, I think I’m doomed” look as well LOL! Luckily in my case the pounced on person wound up getting down on the floor with us to play along 🙂
…and cloud????
Who is he? What if he’s… David’s boss?
*cue dramatic music*
Miller: David Williams, I don’t like what I’m seeing here.
David: I apologize for my wife’s antics. Mr. Miller. Just William would be fine.
Miller: Actually, I wasn’t talking about that. You see, this opportunity makes this the perfect time to bring something up. I’ve been meaning to talk to you about your declining success rate.
David: I-I’m sorry, I know there’s been a few problems, but with the economy…
Miller: Are you saying that the economy is collapsing?
David: I– no, sir! Of course, the current president has done the best he could, and he’ll continue to after his reelection, but the present-
Miller: Are you saying that Bush is the root of the economic disaster?
David: No, of course I’m not trying to impl–… I’m sorry, I shouldn’t be discussing politics.
Miller: This is it, David. I’ve had it up to here with you. You’re obviously trying to avoid confrontation by ignoring your own political stance. You’re not worth it anymore, when you consider that there’s another person who would be better suited to your position. I’m afraid we have to let you go.
Ye Thuza: Mr. Miller, I can explain! It’s not D-
Miller: Ms. Williams, would you be interested in working for us? You have the creativity, passion, and excitement that this company needs.
Ye Thuza: …Are you asking me to take my husband’s job?
Miller: Former job. Do you accept?
Ye Thuza: Er, I suppose so. Where can I apply with the relevant for-
Miller: Your husband has shown me your resume before. You are overly qualified.
David: But she’s never-
Miller: She knows most of the basic material. She’ll learn it in a few months. If she accepts this job by saying “yes,” she agrees to replace you in the company. Otherwise, I’ll just have to-
Ye Thuza: YES!
Miller: Excellent! I was afraid I’d have to rehire David. Congratulations, Ms. Williams! You’ve just beat your husband to his old job!
*Ye Thuza faints*
David: It looks like she bought it!
Miller: You’ll receive your benefits package tomorrow.
David: Is that a joke? Mr. Miller?
*Miller leaves*
David: MR. MILLER?!
TO BE CONTINUED…?
The first four panels are full of awesome. ^^ The rest are just amusing.
The look on her face in that last panel…
That’s just plain awesome.

@ m is for wolf:
Okay, now to correct my typos before I have to renounce grammar Nazism.
*I apologize for my wife’s antics, Mr. Miller. Just David will be fine.
It’s just my luck to get two typos into one line. Also I’ve made a few en-dash mistakes.
*present– *not D– *never– *to–
And maybe, instead of “*Miller leaves*,” I should say “exeunt Miller”? Do I want it to be more like a screenplay?
Exeunt sounds so cool– I think I should have said that.
*EXEUNT MILLER
Checked on the webcomic just after waking up and now I’m laughing hysterically.
Definitely one of the best ways to wake up in the morning… waking up laughing!

No, [i]exeunt[/i] means [i][they] leave[/] (plural). For singular,it’s [B]EXIT[/B] MILLER.
Miller: “I think we need to call in an exterminator.”
Reminds me of my cousin,and makes me happy.
Their home seems to have a Patrick Stewart in it.
This seems a little out of character for Ye Thuza. Not the playing, that’s totally consistent, however I wouldn’t expect anyone to be able to get into her house without her knowing. I guess living in America has made her grow sloppy at perimeter control (although demonstrably not in many other areas).
I also thought that the lack of ninja insight was out of character for her.
*sees first panel.
Yep this is a normal S&W comic
