Transcript:
Luann: "Why are you always so practical?" Bernice: "I'm just trying to understand. So, Quill applied for a program in New York, right?" Luann: "Right" Bernice: "And he wants you to come with him if he gets in?" Luann: "Right" Bernice: "But you've given zero thought to any of the details" Luann: "Right..." Bernice: "And you haven't told your parents yet, but you're confident they'll say "Sure!"" Luann: "Right!"
I’m starting to agree with ReallyBad2’s daily comments. Why is the main focus of today’s strip on the fact she hasn’t told her parents? This is a pretty minor issue regarding the trip, and it really doesn’t need a whole week devoted to it. -If Luann has the funds and motivation, she should go, and her parents input only goes as far as that…input, not permission. - The question is, why is Luann going? That should be the main focus/punch line of the strip. She may find her passion in New York (or at least this is what I suspect) but it’s getting kind of tiring to watch Lu be Quill’s tag along.-I’m not saying the NY trip is a bad plot device—it may be the most entertaining story line we’ve seen in a while (imagine them running into Aaron Hill), but as aforementioned, the focus here is really in the wrong place.-Lu, what are you doing with your life? Do you have money for this trip? Please don’t pull a Gunther, and waste time and savings just to travel with your boyfriend. - WAIT – what if Evans is planning a similar break up route for Luann and Quill, as was seen with Rosa and Gunther?!? And then Luann comes home, bonds w/ G over their mutual idiocy, and realizes he’s been her soul mate all along?-Oh, no. shivers
