I came just to see if anyone had brought this up.
Frankly I'm a little surprised it doesn't seem to be a primary topic.

Judging from panel 5 and 6, I'd say, yes, Renee does find Elliott physically attractive. It is also quite clear that this is not a revelation that is welcome to her. It's worth noting that physical attraction isn't the be-all and end-all of relationships. Does she even want to act on this? Based on panel 6, I'm wondering about that quite a lot. We can be attracted to someone on a physical and instinctual level without wanting a closer relationship with them.
Now, I wonder if Jeph may be planning to explore what would have happened if Faye had confronted her insecurities and dated Marten? If so, he's going to use Renee and Elliott as shadow surrogates.

I'm thinking that most people on this board just don't see it that way. Typically, sexual harassment isn't done as a plea with puppy-dog eyes as in panel 2 here.

I'm predicting one super-awkward date at the end of which they both agree that they have absolutely no future as romantic partners.

--- Quote from: Zebediah on 14 Mar 2017, 09:04 ---Chicken fried steak, on the other hand, will never be anything but a poverty food. Even if they somehow start serving it in expensive restaurants in Manhattan. It's plain survival food, providing calories and not much else.

Pfft. Delightful comfort food wether American style with a white sausage gravy or German "Jaeger Schnitzel" style with a brown mushroom gravy. Om nom nom nom...

Culinary history is full of so-called "poverty foods" that for some damn reason or another became the property of the monied elite. Brown breads, lobster, caviar, the "Patagonian toothfish" nuisance fish that became remarketed and upscaled as "Chilean sea bass." It'll probably happen with the Asian carp -- er, silverfin -- encroaching on midwest-U.S. waterways. I know chefs are figuring out ways tp cook 'em up and charge lots of money for them. I've even seen, and passed up, "gourmet" versions of the humble poutine. Gastronomic gentrification, is what it is.

A garlic butter sauce with lemon juice (I don't know the proer term) generally works well on any fish. Maybe add a bit of dill seed. Serve with radishes and bok choy.
Alternatively, stew it with radishes, parsnips, a bit of ginger root and some black pepper. Hmmmm.... Not sure, but that sounds like it's missing something.
