Ironically Mike gets the response he should have wanted when he wrote his note to Martha, but now he can’t accept it because Martha failed his loyalty test. If he didn’t have those rules about absolute secrecy in relationships, this might have been a happy moment for him.
On the other hand, as a fan of the strip, I am delighted to see that Michael has picked up his mother’s habit of screaming in public. It’s so sweet to see a child adopting the life skills that his mother has been trying so hard to teach him. As long-time readers know, that screaming will serve Michael well in the future.
