− | + | Cueball is apparently running an appliance repair service. Although, he isn't doing much in the repairs aspect, as he is diagnosing problems with the appliances that he himself caused. Megan and White Hat (supposedly) call him over to have him fix a humidifier that isn't working. As most repairmen/handymen do, he takes apart the machine to find the root of the problem. However, it appears that Cueball does not know how to fix the machine, as he states the reason it isn't working is because he took it apart. | |
− | + | What Cueball is doing would be akin to a (really shady) doctor conducting an autopsy when you had the flu and saying the main problem with you right now is that you are dead. And your heart is not pumping because it came from a dead person. | |
− | + | Maybe the fact that Cueball is holding a three-phase motor (as shown in the title text) is part of the problem, because three-phase motors won't work on residential power. Residential humidifiers use [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-phase_electric_power single-phase voltage] (unless the humidifier in the comic is part of an industrial process, which is not very likely by looking at its size), while three-phase equipment uses [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power three-phase voltage].{{Citation needed}} | |

+ | Cueball [facing Megan and White Hat, standing in the middle of a mess and holding a screwdriver]: After disassembling and inspecting the humidifier, I've determined that the main problem with it is that someone took it apart. | ||
