Looks like Cayla’s elbow convinced Les not to skip the orientation, which is being conducted by a ferret-faced refugee from a 1950’s Virgil Partch cartoon.

Cutting Remark
“Cutting”, huh? Now there’s a serious topic that TB could use as Pulitzer bait. Oh, we’re not talking about self-harm? I suppose Summer and Keisha are a little too perfect to indulge in that (no doubt Chien was into it though! This chick too, probably). No, Les is talking about “cutting” “that parent/student orientation meeting” in favor of hanging in the girls’ dorm eating snacks. Because Les is Mister Kent State; he and his daughter(s) don’t need no steenking orientation. The looks he’s getting from Cayla get dirtier each day. Not too late to call off that front-yard wedding, sweets!
Closet Case
Feigned sentimentality aside, Les can’t wait to dump the girls and their belongings in the dorm room, and then get the hell back to Moore Manor and enjoy being semi-alone at last. “A-ha! A closet shelf, I’ll just shove these up here and…” Not so fast, mister! Cayla, being a woman and all, knows that there’s a place for everything, and here and now is the place for her paying Les back for that time he got all anal about the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
This Is "Y" We Snark
While the autumn weather in Westview may be “a little dicey“, just an hour away in tropical Kent, Ohio, it rains every damn day. You’d think that Les, knowing this, would dress accordingly and advise everyone else to do the same. You’d also think that after climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro, Summer’s legs would have a little more shape.
Les is "W"impressed
Bleah, another Sunday throwaway comic book tribute, and an even more lazy effort that usual; TB hasn’t even gone to the trouble of swapping Les and Cayla’s heads onto Superman and Superwoman. He’s merely dropped in a rifle-scope point of view showing our “happy” couple, putting a neat li’l bow on last week’s arc. I’m not a comix fanboy, but Batiuk famously is: aren’t there any black superheroines he could have used to represent Cayla? There must be; but I guess the rights to those characters haven’t yet passed into the public domain. Who ever heard of Superwoman? And why is she dressed in green?
