For the love of Mike, spit it out, man!  I bet he doesn’t even tell her why tomorrow…  what a pompous jerk!  Or just how long can a writer string something out?  Gone are the days of the 60-day story arc.  I don’t even care to determine when we started this one…  not that the starts are crisp, anyway…

And we can see the frustration on Lesley’s face in the third panel… Why oh why does she suffer this fool, gladly or otherwise??
