BrickNerd HQ: While the Boss is Away

The setting? BrickNerd Headquarters, following our opening in Episode 1. Our fearless leader, Dave, officially went on vacation for some much-deserved rest and relaxation. Let’s see what the crew is up to while he’s away…


ElBarto: Oh dear… Toilet paper bowling? Looks like someone got into the supply closet.

Kitty: Put a little English on it, Gwyneth! See what I did there?

Nick: Yeah, I get it… Just wish I could use my new blaster on that stack of TP!

Ted: This isn’t going to end well… I can’t bear to watch!

Gwyneth: Rats! A seven/ten split.

Marco: Still, your best shot so far!

ElBarto: Alright, gang! Settle down. I know the Boss is out of town for a few days, but we’ve still got lots of work to do.

Doug: You mean like setting up the bouncy house?!?! I can do that!

Simon: I think he means coming up with in-depth, thought-provoking, community-oriented LEGO content for all our loyal BrickNerd readers out there.

Kitty: Indeed! Got my upcoming piece done.

Nick: I think I’ll write up something about this new blaster!

ElBarto: That’s the spirit! So I was thinking…

Painter Guy: Excuse me, I’d like to order… what the…?

Marco: Can we help you?

Painter Guy: I just wanted a taco bowl. What is this place? I was here a few weeks ago with the clean-up crew—figured they’d reopen by now…

Doug: We’re a LEGO site called BrickNerd! Sorry, no taco bowls here anymore, but I do have half a tuna sandwich… Hey, do you know why it still smells like bleach in here?

Painter Guy: They paid me not to say anything. And I’ll pass on the tuna. Anyway, I’m working next door now. Know any place to eat?

Markus: There’s a good Greek place next door. You’ll like the juice.

Painter Guy: Thanks! (Wow, they have no idea…)
