This is some Amelia Bedelia level shit, well done
That's funny. Every movie I've ever seen in theaters ended with the projector shutting down and the house lights being turned back on. Oh, wait, she said on the plane. That makes more sense.
"Oh, the usual way: The jet tilted 20 degrees below the horizon, those little masks dropped down onto everyone's lap..."
Good work, Emily. Liz being curious/confused is better than Liz being sulky. Healthier. :)
…Emily, that’s not what she means, haha~
Or the time you chopped off all your hair while drinking. Liz can commiserate bad drunk decisions lol
Tell her about the time your computer program turned into eldritch runes in the middle of class!
I love this joke!
That joke made my entire week. Gold star.
just the Leslie Nielsen levels in that last panel sparking joy for me first thing this morning. I love it
Excellent dad joke. Can confirm.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
100% going to use that joke any opportunity I get.
Oh that punchline caught me off guard. God bless Emily.
Ooh, Liz seems to have moved on to the hard stuff. You know the old saying: “Liquor before beer, you’re in the clear; Beer before liquor, never sicker…”
Wanna hear about the time I broke all Internet e-mail across the entire world? That's a real story from the real world, BTW.
Tell us what you unplugged that you shouldn't have :)
I will never, ever forget this joke.
Hmm, Liz is calmer with Emily. This is a good thing …
That joke would earn a high Nielsen rating.
Like full Nielsen?
Emily has opinions on Key Grips.
Okay, this is now going to be a joke I use. This is too perfect a pun.
I used to read every credit too. Then I stopped watching anything but Doctor Who.
Different people's synapses process synopses differently.
Solid dad joke, Jeph. Please come to the BBQ to receive your Dad Card.
The BBQ does have a strict dress code though, so I hope you brought your socks and sandals.
This was a great punchline I loved it
Emily cannot possibly seduce me. You can't seduce someone who's already on the same page to begin with.
I'm so glad Emily is back. I love her !
Are you sure it was a movie on a plane, and you just didn't imagine season two of Witch Soccer Planet, Emily?
If I watch a movie all the way to the end (like Emily did), I have a terrible habit of counting the number of names in the credits, and looking for duplicates. It's fine for older movies like "Father Goose" that only have a dozen or so names at the end, but it's brutal with newer movies (say anything from the MCU) that have around 2500 names.
George Lucas started listing everyone in "Star Wars" Back when that was all it was called.
Such a funny, in character punchline!!! Emily you beautiful drunk miracle.
Oh I gotta I use that punchline 😂 Also -- sooo good having Emily back ❤️
I haven't laughed out loud at a punchline like this in a while
".....but that's not important right now"
I want to watch this movie
Hoooooooly shit. This is top tier joke writing. 15/10 jeph good job
I do not understand your rating system. https://web.archive.org/web/20260424072326/https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3500
Was Panel 2 Hannelore's old friend Defense Net 10?
I am a compulsive credits reader. Anyone else?
Kinda. Back when I still went to theaters I would always sit through the credits in case there was something at the end. And if I'm going to have giant words scrolling in front of my face I figure I might as well read them.
Panel 2, was it Hannelore's old friend Defense Net 10?
Could be, she knows lots of super-intelligent orbital defense satellites. They're surprisingly good conversationalists. https://web.archive.org/web/20260325164842/https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=665
Emily is one of my favorite autistic reps in comics
It wouldn't surprise me, but what makes you think she's autistic?
Well *I* wanna hear about the first two
Same!
These movies, man. They all end the same way. Very long list of people who worked on it. SO few movies do the MCU bonus scene after the credits. SO boring.
Those bonus scenes are your reward for sitting through 15 minutes of credits.
Can you say "paraprosdokian"? Sure ya can.
I just did. (googled it, too)
Her mistake was teaching the satellites to play chess with each other. That's when the NRO got involved. https://web.archive.org/web/20260308111728/https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2855
One of my very favorite Emily moments! (It's a crowded list.)
Laughed loudly in a quiet work-room in my hotel and now everyone is looking at me. Well done Jeph, well done.
Way too many movies fall back on the old "scrolling list of names" plot twist at the end. So clichéd.
If she watched a better movie, she would've also seen a recipe for brownies.
No eggs.
Adding that to my dad joke inventory
Emily is so funny; I adore her.
That punchline murdered me, amazingly done.
I am *very glad* to see that Emily is still Emily! :-)
That is a fantastic joke. A+
Very Leslie Nielsen coded. 10/10
Shirley, you can't be Sirius.
Credits where credits is due...
Nicely done, Leak
I can’t imagine Emily seducing anyone, but I can imagine Emily teaching Station how to turn off all the smart appliances in England. Station has a vendetta against England.
I can imagine Emily seducing people. Just not on purpose.
I laughed way harder than I should've
I love this punchline an unreasonable amount.
So do I, to the point I near-instantly internalised it and will use it in social situations as my own. At least the second QC line of that kind.
Those are the most Emily achievements possible.
It’s a silly joke but I love she took “how it ends” to mean the credits 😆
I'm mad about how good this joke is
Leslie Neilson would be proud
