I would also like them to learn something that seems like the opposite on first glance but is actually the same: it’s OK for a long running show to change.
Specifically I’m thinking of Stargate SG-1 here, and the Ori arc. Like, humanity finally wiped out the big bads, scored alliances with the big goods, and then suddenly even bigger, badder bads appear. We did not need Goa’uld 2.0 guys. Seriously, even down to having hilariously OP ships and their troops using staff weapons.
There were a few hundred plot arcs that could have been followed up on and were even planned, like the revelation of the … well, everything, to the general public on Earth, but nope, plot reset, back to day one but turned up to eleven.
Wingy:
I didn't take panel 2 and Brun as anything other than she's looking at what everyone else is looking at. Sam is trying to figure out what's going on, which is why she's looking at Faye. Brun could be thinking about how she slept on that butt and it was quite comfortable.
Brun in panel 3 then speaks her truth, though she's most likely missed the whole social context, which is what makes Millie uncomfortable at hearing what she already thinks everyone else is thinking. Sam is snickering at Millie's discomfort after Millie's response.
Or at least that's the way I'm reading it. We shall see where it goes.
On Sam, I'm thinking she's going to have a sudden and deeply weird experience wherein she recognizes sex exists and she wants to be in on the party. Now, whether it's with Winslow or Fairy is my only question.
Perfectly Reasonable:
"A man who would letter-space lower case would steal sheep."

I agree with you here. Brun slept on Millie's butt but hasn't seen it and doesn't know how to react to seeing it so it to me isn't sexual: just genuine interest in it for what it is- her friend's butt. Brun's reaction is one of simply restating what the others had said but not getting the shock or obvious discomfort of Millie, which is simply Brun being Brun and her unfortunate autism causing her to unintentionally put her foot in her mouth when anyone else would have reassured Millie in a different way
awkwardness:
And I agree with others here, it was completely unprofessional by the two to ogle a repeat paying customer who has referred more business to them than anyone else. There is no excuse, they were there when the implant were put in so they have no reason to ogle Millie. If they can't shelve their sexual sides then they're in the wrong business because they are not only sexually harassing customers- they might even be breaking the law.
