In fact, seeing as Bob and Belinda have had a lot of time as crew on this starship, it’s perfectly natural that Belinda would know when Bob’s really being serious, and when he’s just kidding around, and will correctly ignore it when it doesn’t really concern her. So given their conversation in these panels, it is very logical that it was written exactly the way it is! 😀
Oh Bob, why would you ever think Belinda would take that pun sitting down?
Most likely it’s because she just did! Belinda always did know when to be serious, do you think she’d forget right when it’s most important? 😀
