WCDT strips 4481 to 4485 (15th-19th March 2021)
tbodt:
I'm a little embarrassed to admit I don't get the subtext from 4482
BenRG:
I guessed from the start that Jeph would ultimately reuse the "He's a nice boy" line from when she first met Marten.
However, now the penny has dropped, she has something of a dilemma after having basically spent the evening flirting with Elliot. Does she rush upstairs now to apologise and possibly burst into the bedroom to interrupt the two of them making out on Clinton's bed or something? Or does she wait until she's sure she isn't about to interrupt something?

i gotcha
replace "baking" with "smooching" and you more or less get it
Y:
I probably wouldn't get the subtext either of 4482 if I was on the spot, the subtext of this one however

I genuinely don't see where y'all are getting that she was flirting? She commented that she wasn't expecting Clinton's friend to be Elliot (the "look like that" imo referred to the fact that Clinton is a geek into AI rights and Elliot is a giant, non-hipster) and didn't let Elliot pay. That's... idk that's pretty normal mom stuff?
If we as the reader didn't realize she was into him, I'm not sure I'd have gotten that from just their interactions.
Did I miss a strip of arm-touching and breathy compliments?
