The one where Elly tries to remind Jim that these aren't the best years of his life....they're the LAST years of his life!!!
Panel 1: As they get ready to leave, Elly wishes Jim didn't have to go. He says that Vancouver has been his and Marian's home for a long time.
Panel 2: When Elly tries reminding him that neither of them are in the best of health, Jim sets up the nonsensical punchline by saying that they'll cross that bridge when they come to it.
Panel 3: Elly tries reminding him that said bridge is closer than Jim wants to think it is.
Panel 4: Jim says that they'll drive carefully.
Summary: This points back to the coins in the meter thing and reminds us that Jim was like a lot of my people: his 'plan' for the future appears to have been 'live forever.'
