I got the idea for the shtick in this comic while watching the original episode again with my wife, who hadn't seen it before. When Akuta appeared, she said, "It's an Oompa-Loompa!" And I knew exactly what I had to do.

It spices up what is otherwise a rather unsubtle Garden of Eden allegory. Apart from the serpent being an omnipotent god-like computer.

Akuta: Oompa-loompa, doompety doo. // Vaal is destroyed now, what do we do?
