I don't quite get the final panel today; what's Faye's expression about?
Getting us all to speculate about it for the rest of the weekend of course. Mission accomplished, Jeph.

ooh! ooh!... I have another panel for my "latent desire" theory:

Re: Today's comic
I have a bad feeling about Faye and Angus.
I think it's ok that Faye doesn't tell Angus; I don't think it's concealing something he should know about. But still, the comic gives me a very bad feeling that they don't have common ground anymore.

I even think it's okay that Angus seems to be going off without looking at Faye, seeing as it's important, exciting (to him) and she waved off his questions. But even though I think they were both okay in what they did, it's making me feel like the common ground lack is a thing. I mean, their main things they bonded over were the coffee snark and that they had both kind of settled. That wasn't much already, and now Angus isn't settling.

You were maybe wanting to watch? Why you want us to save the killing 'til you get back?

Well, it was more that a pile of charred corpses would mean that something worth starting a flame war over happened while I was gone. Spoilers!

No, a pile of charred corpses would merely indicate that a flame war took place. The fact that a flame war took place would not necessarily indicate that something worth starting a flame war over actually happened.

Gibbsmack him Faye

He wouldn't feel it.

Gibbs smack him why? He asked Faye about her day like 2-3 times, and she her reply was basically "nothing worth talking about" each time. What, is he supposed to keep asking until she gets really mad and then they have a fight? Faye obviously really did NOT want to talk about Sven's "confession" (which Angus has no idea about anyway), and was already getting upset at Angus' questions about her day. Angus is probably thinking, why poke the bear any further and have it tear into me over nothing?

Angus does know there was something between Sven and her (see the snowball fight those oh-so-many years ago). He is probably unaware that Sven still pines for her, though.

It's only a matter of time until Angus finds out. It wouldn't surprise me if the information goes Steve => Angus or Steve => Marten => Angus.

I was going to state that the principle of maximum hilarity would demand it going through as many people as possible, so he latter.  But Steve letting it slip directly to Angus could be good, too. 

I think Dora will be the one to let it slip. Only it's that Sven and Faye used to fuck each other will be the catalyst, not than Sven still has the hots for Faye. Angus confronts Faye about this info, and depending on how Angus does the confrontation, Faye will go beserk about it and let loose that Sven still pines for her.

Dina is showing signs she is much better at getting social clues than she lets on.

Not getting social cues does not preclude self awareness.  Knowing that you don't get social cues often lead to some interesting coping mechanisms!

Agreed, but the way Willis is writing her makes me think the character knows what people are *really* saying to her and she chooses to turn it aside with a shield of obfuscating stupidity -- or more accurately, something her antagonists' egos demand be interpreted as stupidity.
