Yes.

BenRG:
Wow! Panels 1 and 2 are super 'Awkward Zone', aren't they? This is the thing about Elliot and Clinton's relationship right now: They're both hyper-aware that their feelings are ambiguous and neither of them are entirely sure what ground is forbidden to tread upon. This leads to this 'small-talk tap-dance' where they're trying to remain casual without seeming to appear evasive. It isn't a comfortable thing to observe or to experience.

Clinton has learned a critical lesson in today's strip, though: It's a mistake to falsely claim to know all about your friends' interests when you don't. There is nothing insulting or wrong about saying: "No, I don't know what that is. Could you explain that to me?" Elliot is nice enough to assume Clinton is being witty but someone else might have felt that they were being patronised or even insulted in panel 4.

Poor Roko though! She needs to get out of there or at least be distracted before her heat exchangers break down under the stress she's putting them under!

Both of them?
I mean Elliot having a crush on Clinton has been made rather obvious, but Clinton doesn't strike me as being romantically interested in Elliot, or guys in general. His (Clintons) awkwardness in todays comic looks more like 'I have no clue what we're talking about', than 'I might have feelings for you' to me.
