Delator:
...and the bags under the eyes are back.

That didn't take long.  :-P

Eliot's on his way over to Padma's, to walk her to work!

And she's clueless enough, that she'll tell him she took his advice -- and hooked up with Marten!


Such a storyline will not end well.  I really hope I'm wrong...

Yeah if Marten's got half a brain he'll say he's late for work or something and then RUN AWAY fast as he can! Or at least stroll briskly. This is one awkward zone that probably won't be defeated by dressing up in funny clothes. I can't see Marten getting beat up over this (especially if he leaves the area quickly!) but one never knows what a guy who feels screwed over by another guy will do - frequently that does lead to anger and beatings.

Fen:
Wait, didn't Elliopt tell Marten he told Padma like 10 comics ago? Why is he re-telling that?

Sometimes people do forget and say the same things twice, especially if there had been some drinking going on. Jeph's characters are some of the most human I've seen depicted- which means yes, they will sometimes make mistakes you would see in real life, and not in a prescripted typical comic or drama.

Elliott seems... thinner... in the latest comic. Or am I just imagining things? Did anyone else notice that he suddenly seems to have lost fifteen pounds around his middle?

Skewbrow:
Marten and Faye heart-to-heart chat coming up. Both are in need of a friend's advice, and don't really have anyone else to turn to. Hopefully the wine tasting didn't go into overtime so that Faye won't be too hangover.

Agree with AnAverageWriter. We've seen beefier versions of Elliot. May be his bulk was slightly exaggerated, when that was A) conveying the futility of Faye's punching attempts on their way to the dance club, and B) to make the contrast to Hannelore more pronounced, when they spent a strip or two standing side-by-side as the awkward ad'awwwable couple left behind.
