The previous strip set up the situation by Gunther repeating “Just lingerie and jewelry? I’ll bring my camera”. Actually a lingerie shoot is not an unreasonable conclusion to jump to, but Bets’ expression gets immediately confrontational. So she feels she already deserves to be possessive and judgemental. Strike one.
Today’s gag hinges on G saying she won’t be WEARING the lingerie after the previous strip clearly indicated the topic is “just lingerie and jewelry”. A reasonable person would add 2 and 2 and realize he’s taking pictures of CLOTHING. But no, she veers 90 degrees, fixating on him taking pictures of her now without even the lingerie being discussed and states she’s a nude model. More possessiveness and judgement. Strike two.
I’d say she has one chance to straighten the conversation out tomorrow, or I’d say strike 3 she should be out of here. Lonely as Gunther might be, he doesn’t need to be in a sitcom relationship.
She needs to be sat down and asked "Do you want to raise $100k for the hospital or $100Million? A high end art dealer could bring in a lot, and a hospital that has money to burn can provide more and more services, even spread it around to other hospitals if she’s community minded.
you know, most domestic animals only have a few males to service a large number of females.
