On second thought there might be a bit of care and concern here with Les, enough to make my officially withdraw my psychobabble diagnosis of him being a sociopathic personality type. I think the panels are actually showing his concern about embarrassing Pru as well, from being confronted with something she had no idea about. Maybe he was just trying to protect his feelings (another indication he could not really be a sociopath, because a sociopath would not care) but I think he might have been trying to get Pru off the hook of a mistaken impression as well. Man this is getting complicated.
