{Holly is being hypnotised by Meridien, with swirls over her eyes}
Meridien: You are getting sleepy...
{Holly's glasses fall off of her face, the swirls still on them}
{Panel showing the glasses tucked into a bed}

The author writes:

I used to think Raymond Opticians, an eye care business in my area, were called that because they were on Raymond Avenue in Poughkeepsie, New York.

Turns out:

1. No, it was named after its founder,
2. No, it was originally founded in Mount Kisco, and
3. No, the Poughkeepsie location is on Hooker Avenue.

It's a good thing that's not the eye exam.
