I’m looking forward to Labor Day to see if TB follows through with introducing Les (and us) to Cayla’s family. There’s a lot of plot potential in such a meeting. It would go a long way towards giving us some insight into why a fairly young and (occasionally) attractive woman like Cayla would fall in love with such a douchebag as Les Moore. Even your humble scribe cannot see that far into the Funky future, but I’m going to bet right now that the meeting takes place “off-camera”, and we’ll catch up with our newly-engaged couple after the fact.

You can only get so many smiles out of cancer, before you have to resort to gags about the eldery.
"Watch" This
The high school flashback arc comes full circle, back to Les’ main crush, Kelly. Good luck striking up a “casual” conversation with her, Les, after she’s already seen her name written obsessively all over your notebook.
Got Your Numbnuts
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.
The Les You Know

Panel 2 has Les talking with who he imagines are “Hollywood” people. The bald guy is not Lisa, and the woman is not anyone we’ve met.
OK, now that that’s cleared up…Les continues to psych himself out of the movie deal. “They’re going to want to change it…” Yes, sunshine, change it from a book to a movie. It’s a necessary step. In the HOLLYWOOD of Les’ mind, the Philistines are already hacking away. Late Night’s Paul Shaffer (when did he get into the movie biz?) wants to revise some crucial plot points, based on “some preliminary sampling”, and Les is aghast at the suggestion. Back in the “real” world, even Lisa has had it with Doubting Les, raising her hand to hopefully deliver a much needed bitchslap.
