You're missing my point. My point wasn't 'they should be eating microwave meals!' My point was that in the UK, there isn't as big of an 'eating out all the time' culture, largely due to ready meals and microwave meals, among other things. People in countries outside the US do have jobs with long hours and long commutes and yet still don't get takeaway meals all the time, one way or the other. It wasn't a criticism, just an observation.

According to this thread's Headcannon, it should be obvious who is - or who was - Claire-Dad:
(click to show/hide)In QC, only cis girls have lips. Guys, androids, and Claire have no lips. Claire-Mom has no lips! So she's either an android or - more likely - Claire-Dad!  :claireface:
(click to show/hide)No, I'm not serious. Just couldn't resist sharing this silly idea.

BenRG:
I don't know what the protocol is here but on a lot of other forums I frequent, it is permitted to speculate on what the next episode might hold.

I think that Jeph has given as a clue in this case, with the structure of Friday's strip. My guess is that next week is going to be a series of flashbacks to something that defines the current status of Marten and Claire's relationship for three panels before flashing back to the present in the Augustus breakfast nook, someone saying something in response to the story and Mrs A offering her views in the last panel.

Examples could include:

* Marten recalling Claire's anger at him over the ONS;
* Mrs A recalling one of Claire's gushing descriptions of Marten;
* Claire expressing her fear that she can't match up to Dora or the other girls in looks.At the end of the week, I think we'll have a cliffhanger of some sort.

Method of Madness:
Speculation is always welcome! I don't know if I see the flashbacks as something that would happen but hey, maybe.

billandrews.jr1962:
Put me in the category of new poster who has read the strip for awhile.

It seems to me Marten has felt empty inside for some time not having a meaningful relationship with a significant other. My hope is he gives Claire a chance....also, I am really enjoying our introduction to Claire's mother.
