In the aftermath of the Les-pocalypse, jilted Cayla confides in Linda over coffee in the faculty workroom. Linda takes the opportunity to entice Cayla into a lesbian affair, but her overture is immediately interrupted when husband Bull arrives on the scene. Linda sheepishly reverts to the role of doting wife, and Bull responds with, what else, a sports-themed quip. And um, one doesn’t retire one’s own number, the team does.

Swing and a Miss
If these two dopes would just say what’s on their minds…but no, it’s much more melodramatic to have them be unable to express their feelings like adults.
The ship of narrative has lost its rudder. TB spends two years setting up the Les/Cayla thing before allowing them to consummate their relationship, only to have them agree to “take a break” a few weeks later. Props to Cayla for finally showing some backbone; negative props for following that up with an internal “one more chance”.
Pulp Friction
Today, with their auras still aglow, Les and Cayla have progressed (regressed?) from “thought-ballooning” to tortured body language. For the sake of realism, I’ve replaced their panel 3 exchange with this classic dialogue from Pulp Fiction (NSFW).
Awkward
Today it’s Les’ turn to give an interior monologue…in widescreen! Even in his private thoughts Les cannot bring himself to use “that word” to describe his feelings for Cayla.
What’s up with the glowing blue auras?

Les blocks out his wife’s apparition long enough to fuck another chick who, self esteem issues aside, is attractive and available, and the moment she says “I love you” he recoils in horror.
Les’ horrifed expression has cooled into a “meh” face. Needy Cayla obviously expects him to respond in kind to her expression of love, but Les, having already gotten the milf, I mean, the milk for free, sees no reason to buy the cow.
