"An Agatha Heterodyne 1 Minute Mystery" is a one-page humorous story about Agatha Heterodyne's hunt for her socks. Each panel shows her looking in radically different and oftimes absurd locations (a dustbin on the Moon, for instance) while shouting "WHERE?!". The punchline belongs to Krosp.
It's most notable for one of the search locations being depicted as a lushly-romantic bedroom complete with red draperies and candles... and someone who looks remarkably like a worried Gilgamesh Wulfenbach in the bed with a becorseted Agatha pointing a small raygun at his forehead as she asks "WHERE?!". It made the 'shippers happy.
The story was reprinted in Volume VI, Agatha Heterodyne and the Golden Trilobite.
