A few months ago Sophie and Reena experienced a certain amount of panic and anxiety in the wake of witnessing an April-involved spy encounter that turned violent, but eventually things settled down and they went back to what they had moved to Norway for in the first place: working ill-defined jobs for Sophie's boyfriend's wealthy family's charitable foundation, which, as the setup for all this suggests but does not adequately explain, is based in Norway for some reason, where Sophie's boyfriend and/or his family do not live. Reena has started dating some guy and Sophie has stopped leaving the house, but now, just to feel something and also because as a character in a supposed soap opera comic strip she feels a certain obligation, Reena is attempting to stir up drama by setting Sophie up with a handsome (?) Norwegian in a cat burglar outfit. Would this cause trouble with Sophie's boyfriend, who, as mentioned, is more or less their employer? Probably! But quite frankly we deserve some not-well-thought-through action in this strip for once. It will beat all the moping!
