Ghosts pass through solid wall/door. Celebrate finding a key. Unfortunately they cannot remove it from the room as it is solid and cannot pass through matter like they can. Ghosts get depressed about this.

Why would they need a key when they simply float through the door anyways

I did not spot the key. My B. Thanks for the explanation! (Panel 3 is not them passing through the solid door into the key room?)

The ghost is sad because it locked itself out/forgot the key inside. Second ghost shows up an tells them to just warp through because they are ghosts. But instead of being happy they are inside and never needed the key, they try to move the key outside so they can unlock the door to get inside.

Wow. That was immediately apparent to you? Seriously asking.

No. The key looks strange and I hab to reread it a few times. I'm also quite certain I have seen the same joke before in a different comic

You did it’s linked below in this thread

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

Wasn't obvious to me either until I reread the original, and the inciting comment. Definitely a tier 2 comic

It helps that we read the original comic this was based on (linked earlier up) too
