There was a strip in “Into the Woods” where Shauna was working on her space essay, and we got to witness more of Lottie’s amazing poem.
“Space is a void above our head / a realm of malevolent alien DREAD.”
“If an asteroid hit us we’d lose the battle / and what if a super race reduces us to CATTLE?”
“Perhaps space travel is kind of a chore / but what if a pan-galactic empire drained our PRECIOUS MAGMA CORE?”
Composed and recited off the cuff. Lottie has skills. Weird and eclectic skills.

! (Eep!)
Opp! (Opp!)
Ork! (Ork!)
Ah-ah! (Ah-ah!)
Get in this capsule, baby, we are blasting off!
Eep opp ork ah-ah
And that means I love you
Well now, I took my baby for a ride in space
(Eep opp ork ah-ah)
And met a little man with a funny funny face
He taught us both to wail this way
And nobody digs a word we say
Eep opp ork ah ha
Yeah I read my baby loud and clear
She just said I love you dear
Now when I reply
I just said I love you too
Come fly with me
Up high with me
Come on fly with me
And now eep opp ork means I dig you.
You heard the word
That crazy word
That word you heard⁹Eep opp ork means I love you.
Hop on baby, I’ll put you in orbit!
Space is the place.
Yeah, I can kinda understand Shauna’s frustration here. Her essay was about an actual legitimate space-related problem, and yet Lottie and her silly semi-space-themed poem got a response, and a positive one at that, before she did.
I may be wrong, but Shauna looks a bit annoyed by Lottie’s success. Maybe even a tiny bit jealous. Mildred’s face at the end is so lovely.
Who’s a good little space cadet?
When God made Lottie, he threw away the mold.
