See, Les doesn’t want to go on his “mystery trip”, with or without his bride-to-be. So TB stations him in panel 2 between a shelf and a table, to set up the “punchline”. Don’t forget option 3, Les: you can always “shitcan” it. Ingrate.

Now the part where Les somehow avoids taking Cayla on what would be an amazing honeymoon. Because why would she be interested in Africa?Golobulus

You know, Les, if you weren’t such an insufferable putz you could’ve used this opportunity to make Cayla really happy ON YOUR HONEYMOON.
Nope, TB’s got other plans for the Kilimanjaro trek, and they don’t include the future Mrs. Les Moore, who graciously withdraws herself from consideration, thus paving the way for next year’s epic daddy/daughter mountaineering arc.

…You damn well know this guy is going to whine and bitch his way up and down that f*cking mountain while the always-annoying Summer will be quipping and overacting along with him the entire way. Then he’ll come home and brag about it in that irritating, self-depreciating Batomic way of his.
You heard it here first…
The Sports is Saved
I have no idea why everyone had to leave the country club and travel to Montoni’s, in sleeting weather no less, to tally up the take from the “Save the Sports” raffle. To the astonishment of no one who reads this blog, the fundraiser was a huge success. Future prom couple Summer and Keisha throw discretion to the wind and use the occasion to engage in a PDA*.

The Born Loser
I’m finding I just can’t hate Les enough. “I won a trip to Kilimanjaro? Why does everything always happen to me?” He even echoes Funky’s “hoping for Disney World” riff from last week.
I was sure that the “Blue Valley Country Club” would turn out to be a Real Place in Ohio. I was close: a Google search for “golf medina ohio” turns up the Blue Heron Golf Club in TB’s hometown. Intriguingly, there is a real-world “Blue Valley Golf and Country Estate“…but it’s in South Africa, a good few thousand miles away from Tanzania.
Coolimanjaro
Les is less than thrilled to learn that his “mystery” destination is Kilimanjaro, but he is cut off in mid-whine by wild-eyed Summer clawing at his shoulder.
In the interview I referred to a few posts ago, TB gave away some previews of FW’s 40th anniversary year. In addition to Les and Summer’s Kilimanjaro trek, he also cites “a storyline in May when a same-sex couple wants to attend the prom together”. Given Summer’s masculine attire, I wonder if she might be one half of that couple?
