Marten's dad, I'm not sure. But someone who says "Charmed" and "darling" probably has or is faking an accent.

In this old one, Henry's BF is named MArcel, and then in 10/16's, he's named Maurice.
Just a nit...

While I doubt that its actually a different BF.... Considering the time lapse between the two, its possible its a new BF. But as I already said, I suspect its the same person. Or maybe his name is Maurice Marcel. =D Or in a super unlikely scenario one could be a nickname for the other.

Or, maybe Marten's mom mis-remembers his name. How closely do divorced people keep track of their ex's current partner?
Binary:
This is of absolutely no significance whatsoever, but I was just idly wondering how Maurice pronounces his name. To rhyme with "Morris", the way I've always heard it used in real life, or to rhyme with the French-style "more-REECE", like Barry Corbin's character in Northern Exposure (which always sounded weird to me)?
If the "Maurice Marcel" theory is correct, probably the latter.

This can vary from "not at all" to "manically" and everything in between, really. In the case of Henry and Veronica, well, she said they're still good friends, so...
Some people have issues with remembering names accurately. Maybe it's the case with Veronica?
Carl-E:
Ummm.. no. In her business, you have GOT to be able remember names!
Shouting out the wrong one at an inappropriate (or even an appropriate) time could be costly!
Besides, you don't want to leave a paper trail!

there you guys go. I was lazy and didn't want to actually do work so I just scratched out a letter. Now a poll must be started over which is better
I hope Jeph doesn't mind, I don't wanna get sued out of my college money
I found Friday's comic extremely amusing. I think the relationship between Henry and Maurice will be hysterical over the next while

thank you for not being lazy like me
Yees. Please to not be suing, Mr. Jeph. I'll take it down if it is copyright infringements.
