Does no one else on this board close his eyes in empathic embarrassment, hoping like a little kid that you'll disappear if you can't see anyone?  I do the same thing when someone ruins the National Anthem before a baseball game or when a comedian loses to hecklers or when some hillbilly gets all indignant at Red Lobster because extra hush puppies aren't free.  Some people (cats, alive stuffed animals) just don't know how to act.  Ray is among them.

Teodor is hell of embarrassed by Ray's joke and already uncomfortable at having Beef and Molly in a holding pattern in the back seat.  If he can't see them, they can't see him and he doesn't have to be a part of this whole ugly episode.

Are Molly and Beef fighting because Beef made her quit the sandwich-porn job?

Or is it that all they do is fight lately.

Closing his eyes like a child whose mother is removing a band-aid, hoping it will dull the pain.

They are arguing because beef is trying to be a knight in shining armour. This is an unrealistic ideal... It Strips the woman of her empowerment and this is something molly doesn't need. She's just trying to be her own lady. I'm not saying beef isn't wonderful for doing what he's doing, but it's foolish to think it will work. Ladies are allowed to eat sammiches wherever they want and in front of whoever they want. If she doesn't mind being considered a "nasty dame" by some then nobody else should.

There is my two cents. Needless to say this stip made the tears. A huge part of joke telling is timing. This lacked the timing big time. Fuck, teodore is so gold in this storyline.

Well, see, that's part of the humor of the strip.  Ray is not only telling an off-color joke, he's telling an off-color joke that is not even remotely funny.  Perhaps he could be forgiven for being somewhat crass.  But for being unfunny?  Never.

I'm tring to understand the setup in the car. Is it safe to assume molly is in the rear seat behind ray and Beef is behind teodore? That is what it looks like but it is possible that it's the other way around...

I love that Ray keeps looking to Teodor for validity... and is not finding it.

I love how the third and last panels are nearly identical.  Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V.  Molly's sexy when she's pissed.


No, Molly's actually frowning less in the last frame.

Why am I so invested in Molly and Beef's relationship?

Nah, they're the exact same. Being the dork and procrastinator that I am, I verified this.

Back to work? Yeah, I'd better.

"I'm actually pretty open minded when you get to know me."

One interpretation I had of this is that Ray would be prepared to suck it and see.

Maybe Ray will get shot next, or something similarly jolting.  He needs to get shocked back to reality something bad, like Pat did.  I'm hedging my bets on the hope that something horrible will happen at that house, forcing an end to this slippery slope Ray's built for himself.    

WHERE's THE MISTER SMUCKELS THAT WE KNOW AND LOVE?!

Thank you for coming to the defense of a fellow procrastinator.  I have several all-nighters to look forward to in the next three weeks.  Then glorious spring break, when I can not get caught up on school work.  Then more all-nighters.

I think there's more seat in one of the panels, but Molly's the same.
