THE MONGERING — PAGE 13: UNCLOAKING. A noir comic page in black-and-white with teal and amber accents, rainy noir cinematic look. Use the uploaded character reference for Douglas — a man with short dark hair and a beard, wearing a dark suit. 4 panels.
Panel 1: A coffee shop. Douglas and Lena across a table. He replays the neighbor's words for her, gently. Douglas (speech balloon): "Say it back to me. Exactly how she said it."
Panel 2: The uncloaking rendered visually: the neighbor's normal speech balloon — "It's not my fault, I'm just saying what I heard." — and beneath it a dark translucent echo-balloon, the undertone laid bare: the rumor with no source, the blame passed hand to hand, the envy underneath. Show the dark echo-balloon clearly.
Panel 3: Lena staring at the echo-balloon. Recognition, then anger, then grief. Lena (speech balloon): "I gave up my bakery over... gossip?"
Panel 4: Lena on the phone, standing tall for the first time in the issue. Lena (phone): "The Elm Street space — is it still open? ...Smaller? Good. I'll take smaller." Caption: "Not the door. A door."
Render all speech and caption text exactly as written, with perfect spelling.
