So Susan has also been summoned to Principal Nate’s office, and Nate’s waving a blank piece of paper and giving them hell, throwing in a completely random climate-change reference just to keep it 1/4″ from reality. Before Les can give his side, which I’d really be interested in hearing, Susan goes into her dead-eyed zombie mode and takes the fall.

Cell-ing the Story
Wow! Today’s strip looks like it’s in 3-D! Weirdly-lit Les offers his explanation to weirdly-lit Cayla as to why he is kissing suddenly blonde Susan.
To his credit, Les recounts the circumstances as they happened, and to her credit, or not, Cayla unquestioningly accepts his account. “Some student must have snapped” the picture, no doubt while watching from the grassy knoll. Totally plausible, as is Cayla’s estimate of “five million people on the internet”.
Picture This
Just then Cayla’s “I-Phone” rang, with its special “This is Keisha, I’m Sending You Something” ringtone. And shit got real.

Oh, poor Les. What a terrible thing it is to have women professing their love for you. Brought this on yourself, buddy. Now you’re free to spend as much time as you like on the ol’ park bench with your favorite girl.
So Crazy

You know for someone who has wanted for something for such a long time Susan is seeming to give up very fast.

All it took to undo decades of obsession was one kiss? That doesn’t really, uh, reflect too well on either of them, does it?

Imagine the cold fish Les must be for Susan to start backing away so fast after declaring the secret of her heart that really wasn’t all that secret.
Very astutely observed, gang!
Susan sees her opening and wastes not a minute in taking her shot. Did Les physically push her away or tell her no? All he did was raise his eyebrows! But that’s all the rejection Susan needs; after all, she had anticipated this (“…part of me knew that all along…”). She uses the occasion for some dramatic monologuing, followed by a “Good-bye!“
