BenRG:
I think that Marten and Claire are slowly putting together the pieces. There really does seem to be a parental conspiracy of some sort going on here, doesn't there? :wink:
The last panel is no great surprise. We know that Claire loves teasing and insulting her little brother (like most older siblings on Earth). So, seeing if she can make his temple veins pop out by introducing her boyfriend (and implying activities that haven't occurred yet) will probably be a diabolical entertainment for her.
So... Archive addicts! Have we seen this diner/restaurant before? My hazy memory suggests that it isn't The Hidden Bakery, which has ochre walls, IIRC.

He just fell asleep! False alarm!

Yeah, I did wonder. He's had a bad time and sometimes you just can't keep your eyes open.
No worries, Jeph. Thanks for doing it anyway! :-)

I don't think the fact that Claire is a trans woman will be part of any drama we have - Jeph has made it pretty clear he's going to steer clear of that. We already have two drama bombs ticking; either would work for Turkey time.

If there is a confrontation with Clinton in CoD, my feeling is that he will end up humiliating himself in front of the girls (especially Hannelore). I can see him trying to tap-dance around Claire's secret but ends up saying nothing particularly revealing (and that just makes him lose even more credibility). Clinton will end up throwing lots of wild accusations at Marten, Dora barring him from her shop and him storming out like a child half his age denied a treat.
I wonder if, is there is a 'bomb', it will have something to do with Claire's father and his mistress. That's just a guess though.
Lubricus:
It pleases me that Clinton doesn't know yet - it's s a great opportunity for both drama and humour. I just hope Marten can survive the robot hand's murder mode...

No change there, then.
In answer to Marten's "what about your brother?"... we've already heard "Maybe you're not such a bad guy after all" from Clinton so though he may be shocked, he can't 100% disapprove. But he won't like the undermining of his self-appointed role as his sister's keeper.
And as others have said, lovely to see Claire in more confident "tease" mode and expecting to be on top of the situation for a change.
And to see Jeph back. Alice has been updated too, as I expect everybody's noticed by now.
Neko_Ali:
I predict: Clinton will take the news straight faced and say something like 'Well, if it had to be someone, I guess you aren't the worst.' Then shake hands with Marten and try to get into one of those macho 'crush the other guy's grip' things. Unfortunately, it's his flesh hand, and he just winds up embarrassing both of them while Claire looks disgusted at him.
osaka:
Or worse, he tries to do that with the robo hand and still gets pwnd.
