I mentioned before that page 35 (the one where Rossi starts rimming Alfonso) was a late addition to the script, so you can see here how far Rossi's snout is between Alfonso's cheeks is a little inconsistent in the WIP (it looks more realistically scrunched up in the final version). I figured the two panels on diagonally opposite sides of the mirrored panels would look neat in terms of composition, while also having the viewer's line of sight move across Alfonso's ass from one speech bubble to another to show the cards falling off.
I also thought it would be funny to have Alfonso do the 'che vuoi?' gesture (pinching the fingers upward and shaking them). It's just as common in Argentina as it is in Italy due to how big the diaspora is. I figured, sure, a guy whose first (or last?) name is Alfonso would do this when confronted trying to dismiss a blatant lie.
