Well, surprisingly I did call it.

Yep you did; although honestly, your use of the word* "brobably" makes me want to cry in my beer myself. Ugh.
I'm disappointed that you were right, only because it caused me to have to look at that post again.
* "word" in a very loose sense
Blackjoker:
Looking at Elliot again I almost wonder if what happened was that the anger was building up, as was the frustration, and some part of him wanted to tear Marten apart. But Martens trying to be nice to him, to be easygoing about it, etc. sort of disarmed him and pushed him from anger to despair. The whole 'man up' thing has a point, but also let's not forget how many people might include part of manning up to kick the crap out of Marten, and maybe when Elliot couldn't bring himself to do that he figured he was sunk.
gprimr1:
If The Secret Bakery is supposed to be the mirror image of Coffee of Doom, perhaps:
Elliot represents Faye and her inability to love Martin.
Elliot represents Dora, torn apart by Martin and Padma.
snubnose:
Hmm. I cant weep, so big guy weeping makes me think. I actually kind of envy him. Its a form of expressing feelings that I am simply unable to do.

I have no idea how you managed to get such a bad opinion of Elliot. He's just a guy who isnt very socially skilled. Of course he was angry at Marten for Marten being interested in Elliots crush, but I dont believe Elliot ever, at any point, actively planned to do anything violent to Marten. That idea was clearly just played purely for laughts. So I believe Elliot simply wanted to have a mantalk about Padma - but then the realization of her leaving really hit him.
