I think that we all were more-or-less expecting today's strip to turn out the way that it did. However, it a certain way, it probably tells us a lot about Clinton, his personality and, possibly, his relationship with his mother.
Look at his monologue in panel 3 and his body language. Although he is making a show of agreeing with Claire, you can tell that he thinks she's being irrational. He also uses a lot of pointed language to show that he still disapproves of his mother's choices but that he doesn't want to start (another) fight with Claire over it. Claire also correctly zeroes in on the strange fact that, with all the stuff (some of it life-threatening) that had happened to him that night, why is he most worried about his mother's sex life?
That said, Clinton gets an award for summarising what was, what...? 25 strips...? Managing to boil that down to a single run-on sentence is pretty impressive! I'm sure that the educator in Claire would be impressed if she weren't more worried about his safety and his skewed idea of what was the more important events of that night!
