Carl-E:
There are only two things a mother (or a father, for that matter) can do for someone who's been through an emotional upheaval;
1) Be there for him. Veronica offered murder, tongue-in-cheek (I presume), and hasn't had much of a chance beyond that, what with lunch, meeting Tai, and nap time. These were (relatively) public places, not a place where he can open up and she can provide comfort. I expect that shortly, when the lady's league breaks up and exits, she'll have some alone time with him, and he'll have a chance to open up. Whether we see that or not, I think it's the main reason she's come to see him.
2) Remind him of who he is, where he's come from, and how far he's come. Remind him that, after other emotionally scarring events, he went on. He doesn't want to hear it yet, but the phrase "this too shall pass" needs to be said so that he'll understand it later.
That's probably why she brought the album along in the first place.
That, and some comic relief.
After all, dildo's are the comic relief of the sex industry!
Elysiana:
Jeph got Veronica's "smile lines" absolutely SPOT ON today. It took me a few minutes to figure out what was odd about this one, and finally realized that he's faded them so it doesn't look like she has a Zorro mustache anymore. Very very nice.
Also, poor Marten. He's had a rough week. But at least he has a house full of cute girls giggling at him. Speaking of which, I can't remember the last time we saw Faye belly-laugh like she is in panel 4. Nice to see her loosening up!

Any industry, really. There's just something about the penis...
cuzsis:
I really don't think this comic was supposed to be anything more than a light hearted poke at the fact that Marten's "embarrassing baby pictures" are substantially worse than the average person's due to what his mom does for a living. That's all.
We're enjoying some light hearted Veronica moments before getting back down to the "meat" of the story.
