This is two panels too long, imo.

Change the first panel’s text to “Forgive me, Helen, I’ve changed!”, the second’s to “Have you, Theseus?”, and you’re done, lol.

I needed the little punchline in panel 3 to remember it.

Who stop there? Make it one panel with stacked speech bubbles.

The punchline should be on its own panel to create a natural temporal gap between it and the setup, for the reader. :)
