A junior engineer working for a small engineering firm in Cocoa Beach. The firm focuses mostly on NASA projects.
Neil is Jean’s best friend. When Jean was turned into a genie, Neil became Jeanie’s master.
First, this is exactly the way male Jean would act. He can dish it out, but she can’t take it.
Second, Jeanie has absolutely no concern for the havoc she causes in Neil’s life, or anyone’s life. She’s willing to throw away Neil’s job over stuff she did–right up to the point where it might cost her something, the trip to Vegas.
Jean is borderline sociopathic. For Jean without the cute packaging, see Rayne in “Least I Could Do”.
Don’t forget Jean did seem to be willing to go through with the date right up until she realized she was his third choice AND got insulted to boot. I know if I’d shown up and got insulted like that I’d really want to leave rather than put myself through the date. In her case though she had a ready made replacement in his first choice of the brunette.
Its also a little harsh to call her a sociopath for trying to give her friend/master a lunch AND blame her for Aracelli’s actions. After all given her self absorbed nature she probably didn’t realize that delivering a lunch to Neil would be a problem and I think if your honest most of us in her position would have messed up somehow (huge book of new rules) and been sent for training (assuming it wasn’t going to happen even if we didn’t) during which time a replacement would be arranged.
Me, I went on many dates (I was “The Blind Date King”) and I made it clear up front to the gal I had just met: “I don’t intend to paw you, or try to get into your pants, I’m a respectful guy…We’re on this guy’s dime tonight, so let’s have a blast, bowling, mini-golf or a movie, pizza after, and just talk and have fun.” The majoirity of them that I was with, I would have enjoyed seeing again, tho mostly they were third-wheels from out of town. I’m sure a few would have liked to see me again. Too bad we didn’t have email back then, things would have been much different…*sigh*
Yo, CD, thanks for the bonus comic this week, if ya feel up to it, I think it’d make a fun regular thing! Great work!!!
Neil got himself into this one. If anyone needs rescuing at this point, it’s gonna be the poor shlep that thinks he’s got a date with Nelly. Hopefully, shortly after Nelly applies a firm and insistent knee to his nether regions and before Jeannie starts in on him as well.
Hehe did Jean make him bustier then the last time? 😮
That would fit Jean’s attitude to a T.
I agree she seems bustier…hehehe
he should punch jean in the face for being a douch. Bad friend.
Right. He is. Pimping Jeannie out to save his job.
Well lets be honest, Jean has it coming xD
Neil wasn’t pimping Jean out. He was sending her in to clean up the mess *she* caused. It’s Jean’s fault that Roger saw all these girls.
Blonde – Jean poofed in past security to deliver a lunch Neil never asked for.
Brunette – Jean gratuitously poofed Neil into girl form, getting her bottle chained to his neck making it impossible to poof him back to male form.
Blue – Woefully naive Araceli was called in as a replacement genie because Jean screwed up making a sandwich.
I’m with Makaira here, but it’s worse than that.

Where is Jean now, anyway?
Hahahaa, just roll with it Neilly! xD
Oh, good grief. >_<; I am starting to like this co-worker less and less…
Have you ever wonder what it would be like, to step in front of a speeding locomotive, I think Neal is just to about to find out.
OMG, this is funny!

I must reiterate my previous comment:
… hot.
😉
I hope the next panel is Neilly slapping the smile off his face for putting his hand where it is.
…and the next one is Neil getting a voice mail informing him he’s fired.
Jean has some design sense – that’s a very nice dress Neil has on.
Hes just a coworker and the boss is not a fan of neils coworker so I doubt he would believe him any ways.
I’m thinking this is where Rodger is going to learn about Jean and his fate as a Jeanie….ooh the fun
Two questions.
Just how honorable is Roger?
What is the bemale Neil’s capacity for alcohol?
Nice “Quantum Leap” moment in the last panel CD!
Little slow on the uptake there, Neil! 😀 Or should we call you Nelly from now on?
Does anyone else sense that Rodger wont stop at just one date with *Nelly* yea I like that too, and Neil will have some *splainen* to do
Just a comment on the poll. I’d love to see Lord Guano take an interest in girl Neil :3
why do i feel like neil is goong to vegas as babe neil?
I am soooo sad this is a g-rated script.
Those aren’t Ba-Jeebas…they’re Ga-zongas!
So that how you spell the word.
I hope that Araceli gets back to Neil soon, just so that she could rescue Neil from situations like this.

I think Jean made him a woman to help him gain a better understanding of the fair sex.
