I was so confused by today's comic, because I thought yesterday Marigold was pulling Dale out into the hallway to have a stern talking-to with Momo in private. Understanding household geography is apparently quite important.
Method of Madness:
Wait, why would she have a stern talking-to with Momo?

With both Marigold and Momo having made it clear that they wanted him to stay, I cannot begin to understand the fuss being made.

Because there are a lot of folks out there with the fundamental mindset that all men are innately predators and rapists, barely under control at the best of times.
Heck, I spoke to a mother a few years back who boasted -- boasted! -- that she'd never yet failed to ensure that her husband was never alone with their five-year-old daughter, because, well, All Men.

Exactly the point I was trying to make with my earlier posts about why Dale's actions could be considered creepy under different circumstances. Fortunately for him, Marigold did not consider his actions creepy, hence his apparently getting laid. But if she were less attracted to him and/or more paranoid about her safety or believed that all men are predators, things could have ended very differently for Dale.
Method of Madness:
If she didn't want him to stay over, she wouldn't have objected when he was going to leave the night before.

Maybe she thought that Momo had "stolen" her date.
