I’m not quite sure, but this is how I interpret today’s comic. For whatever reason, perhaps boredom, Her Maj is cleaning the basement. The basement is accessed by a door in the floor (a hatch door). Albert, being unaware of these activities, slips and falls into the basement. He yells at Her Maj that she should close the door to prevent such accidents. She’s too engrossed in her cleaning to worry about that, and hollers at him to help her clean. (This scenario occurs to me perhaps because yesterday and today, the large hatch door inside my house, which leads to the crawl space, was open most of the time, since the water heater was out and maintenance was putting in a new one. The guys were always asking me to please not fall down into the hole!)

Albert do manual labor? That’s what the servants are for.

A mother was washing her baby one night;
The youngest of ten and a delicate mite.
The mother was poor and the baby was thin;
’Twas naught but a skeleton covered with skin.
The mother turned ’round for a soap off the rack.
She was only a moment but when she got back
Her baby had gone, and in anguish she cried,
“Oh, where has my baby gone?” The angels replied
Oh, your baby has gone down the plug hole.
Oh, your baby has gone down the plug.
The poor little thing was so skinny and thin,
He should have been washed in a jug, in a jug.
Your baby is perfectly happy;
He won’t need a bath anymore.
He’s a-muckin’ about with the angels above,
Not lost but gone before.

The basement hatch door? Are they living in a houseboat?
