Wow, look at that expression of disdain on Les’ puss in panel three. Now that he’s gotten published, he is so done with teaching these ungrateful, ignorant little shits. Come next September, rather than cracking lame jokes in front of another crop of freshmen, Les will be in the Big City, hobnobbing with the rest of the literati.
Y’all thought that the Les-Cayla-Station Wagon Sue thing was going somewhere, didn’t ya? Nope. Welcome to Act IV. Les is finishing up his first year back from a ten-year sabbatical following his suspension for inciting the Great Cafeteria Catfight of 2010/2020.And that student giving him the stink-eye? Not Cory, that’s the hitherto-unseen Wally Jr., now in his sixth year at Westview.
Ten years on, though, Les is still rockin’ that yellow shirt.
For a high-school jock, Summer’s got a rather girly-girl bedroom. Pink walls, pink draperies…anyway, in panel 3, why is she giving that “hmmmm” look? Unless this scene is taking place on a Friday, of course Susan will see Les tomorrow. They work together.
I have to say that Summer’s profile in panel one reminds me of this famous “ambiguous image”: which do you see, a young girl or an old woman?
See: this is why I always advise my single friends, “Don’t fish in the company pool.” Especially when there are two fish attracted to your “worm”.
“So,” asks Cayla, “what was that all about?” Inside Les’ head appears a menu of possible responses, like in The Terminator…and instead of simply telling Cayla what it was about, Les tries to shut her up with a glib response. Let’s see what possible responses pop up in Cayla’s head…I’m betting against her saying what any self-respecting woman would tell a jerk like Les.
Oh! That sonofabitch Mr. Smith forced poor Susan to watch sports on TV!
The part of Susan in today’s panel 2 is being played by a department store mannequin.
