Ew, Marten. Just... ew.
I'm giving this the benefit of the doubt, and we'll see what tomorrow's comic brings. But based just on this strip, ugh. Implying a woman owes you sexual favours because you did her a favour she didn't ask for is just all kinds of gross.
Barmymoo:
I'm pretty sure he doesn't actually believe she owes him sexual favours. He was joking around, and awkwardly attempting to try a new method of meeting women since his previous technique has not been all that successful. This one was also doomed to fail (we knew that, surely?!) but I'm impressed he tried.
pwhodges:
It may be significant that it was Delilah who actually suggested, to Marten's embarrassment, that Tai had brought him to get laid - and then it's Delilah that he tries it on with. He might have taken a too specific message from her earlier remark.
(corrected name - thanks Loki)
Loki:
*Delilah

No, I don't think he actually believes it, either, which is why I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt here. But he certainly implied it. His wording is "You can pay me back with makeouts" which yeah, says she "owes" him. Is that the message he intended to get across? Maybe, maybe not. We won't know until tomorrow at the earliest.
