Arlo says, "You spend all day shopping and you come home frustrated!" Arlo says, "Yet a friend gives you old cast-offs and you're happy as a clam! Why is that?" Janis says, "Honestly!" Janis says, "Have you ever been serious a minute in your life?"
See… I*think* I am calling it right in terms of what I said yesterday. I think JJ is not making this new neighbor out to be someone worrisome…. instead I think it is simply a bit of an awkward rush to get her introduced as a regular character so that she and Janis can be featured in a lot of girl-girl friendship panels. I think JJ is just pushing this new character’s development a bit fast to get where he wants the character to be, so it may feel (accidentally) a bit sinister, but it is not meant to feel this way.
