In the movie, this moment is nothing. Nadir serves a meal. That's it. But I noticed that there are a few frames where Sinbad and Kyra look down at their bowls with skepticism, and I pounced on that as being the key to this comic. So I build the whole comic so that it led up to that image as the silent punchline.
Here's where it gave me that gift: it wasn't until I was pretty much done with the writing that I spotted that for a single frame as he's walking away, there's that wonderful image of his mischievous little smile. It makes the whole strip.
It also unlocked his character for me. As I wrote earlier, I had a lot of trouble deciding what to do with Kyra and Nadir, other than the obvious idea that Nadir should be well-spoken. But he clicked for me in this episode: He plays at being an oblivious intellectual, but he's in on the joke.
Thanks, movie.
