Comic 74: Historic Individual
     Panel 1: Show a close up on the book.  Show obviously that it's The Count of Monte Cristo.
  Morty: "Mr. Smith!  Are you a Dumas enthusiast?"

     Panel 2: Side-view with Emmett still looking down at the book.
  Emmett: "Truth be told, 'The Man in the Iron Mask' was one of the first stories I was told. Dumbed down, of course though.  I only recently finished it and the Three Musketeers, and am now on to The Count of Monte Cristo, as you can plainly see."

     Panel 3: Emmett looking up from the book straight towards the readers with an eyebrow raised in curiosity.
  Emmett: "'The prisoner's first feeling was of joy at again breathing the pure air -- for air is freedom'  You, according to my research, may have inspired a great deal of the novel due to your encounters with the author.  Is that not correct?"

     Panel 4: Lydia, and Tony are looking at a shocked Morty leaning in from the sides.  Morty, himself, is quite shocked.
  Morty: "Your sources are remarkable.  I'm not sure how you found out, but I did indeed share a few evenings with Alexander prior to his beginning the book.  Of course, my role as impetus was minute, in comparison to the finished masterpiece."
  Emmett: "Fascinating.  You truly are a wonder.  I must speak with you some later time about your experiences.  I'm a bit of a history buff myself, but reading is another thing entirely from experiencing."

     Panel 5: Emmett has resumed reading his book and Tony and Morty are attempting to lift the couch.  All the other boxes are gone.  Tony is on Lydia's end and even Morty is straining a bit.
  CAP: "Soon..."
  Tony: "What is this thing made out of, lead?"
  Morty: "Lydia, I'm afraid that without equipment such as the movers had, we shan't be able to bring this in.  Perhaps if I had my weekly dosage I could lift half, but it isn't for another two days."
