    First panel: wife is looking in the mirror, Everett with a snide remark: “if you dont put on some makeup you are likely to break that mirror” Second panel: what we are currently seeing with the additional speech bubble from the wife: “you didn’t put on any makeup, look what you did to the mirror!”
