Transcript:
Rosa: "You came to Peru with me, Gunther! if that's not growth, I don't know what is!"
Rosa: "And your mom's independence- her "Mr. Gray"- that's growth!"
Rosa: "Yet you look so sad..."
Gunther: "I'm shrinking from all this growth"
Wow, Greg goes around sticking his name and date on all the cubicles and name plates in the office… – A lot of talk of “In-Dependents” on “Thanks-Forgetting” day…. – Some people wear the same clothes on their mind for quite a while. And it ends up taking a long time to change….
“Shrink Rap”“A Gray Cloud With A Silver Lining”“Second Thoughts About First Steps”“Me And You And A Doc In Peru” (♫)“The Jolly Shrinking Giant”“One Step Forward, Two Steps For An Ant”“Gray Makes Blue”“Digging Deep For Change… Again”“All That And A Bag Of Chips From The Vending Machine”or“Human Growth Hor-Moan”
At a plastic surgery clinic? I’m thinking there might be a more drastic surgical response, but probably not the temporary ‘better living through chemistry’ approach…
I know we’re all grown folk here, but just a reminder to "Be safe- do safe! – Those who plan to enjoy adult beverages (or even if not) please remember to look out, not just for your own safety, but also the safety of someone else’s family member!
Ma Berger and Mr Grey may be just friends, or may be more. I’m pretty sure Gunther and Rosaare still four feet on the floor at all times, no thanks to his reticence. Rosa’s taking him back to her place could be a problem if she’s staying with her uncle
Poor Gunther, like a turtle pulling his head into his shell. 1st. panel: is Gunther looking at Rosa’s hand on his arm, or just looking sad? Also, same panel, the word “me” should be in bold type, not Peru. Is this shy little boy-hot girl storyline going to continue for another year, or are we going to finally see some action? This is like watching sail boats race – no noticeable movement.
Rosa ether has the patience of Job or is the dumbest broad in Peru! I think Gunther will come thru this just fine…Once he gets a fresh perspective on things.
To be fair. Silicon Valley is full of ‘Gunthers.’ Bill Gates himself is a ‘Gunther.’ Melinda Gates doesn’t seem to mind.
Indeed, with such an example as that, Rosa is wise to hold on…knowing on the other side of this journey is, well, Bill Gates. He’s already clearly a prodigy with computers, given people twice his age with twice his experience are asking him for help and advice.
Reminder to the ladies: Never forget how big a programmer’s salary really is.
Gunther has a touch of Peter Pan-ism, but given time he should adjust to the New Realities. Rosa is so good with him, gently urging him along step by step!
I understand Gunther. He sees it as loosing part of his family. After my parents died I commented to my wife I had no family left. She looked at me and said I had her and the kids. Later after her parents died, she said she then understood.
Oh Gunth grow up and grow a pair. You’re an adult now and getting real world experience even if that’s all that comes out of this. And lets face it, mom needs some loving too, not just from her mamaluke of a son.
Rosa’s attraction to Gunther is just a plot contrivance to make the G-man be less of a dweeb and more nearly an assertive and confident guy, who will therefore be “worthy” of marrying Luann some years down the road.
In a couple of weeks when Gunther calls home on Skype, he will see his Mom serving a plate of cookies and milk to Mr. Gray. He will then take the next flight from Lima to LAX, whining and crying all the way.
NO, Gunther was TALKED Into Coming to Peru With You, Rosa Dear. Biiiiiiiiiig Difference.
WHY are the Two of You STILL There? I Don’t See ANY Poor Down Trodden Folks that Need Help. Just a Bunch of Cubicles. You cudda Done THAT in the Good Old U S Of.
And Please DON’T Tell Me You Two are NOT Getting PAID for This!
Sigh.
Oh Yeah. HAPPY THANKSGIVING, My Fellow Band of Merry Mischief Makers!!!!
lot of upscale Latin-America and Europe people make a point to learn English along with lot of Chinese as a second language, so much so that it helps make the number of people who know English as a “non-primary language” actually bigger in number than all 1st language speakers of every language except Chinese

Um, didn’t you read his comment? He’s shrinking. Maybe he needs some, uh, meds for his problem first…

I’m guessing we won’t be witnessing any of the Luann cast enjoying a family turkey dinner this Thanksgiving. But I hope you all enjoy yours…

Gunther needs to see a shrink.

Rosa is not Gunther’s type. He needs a girl just like his mom to turn him on.
BeniHanna6 Premium Member almost 10 years ago
Does anyone else wonder what Rosa sees in Gunther? Someone like her would have kicked him to the curb a long time ago in the real world.

Happy Thanksgiving. Rosa needs to “thank” Gunther in a way he’ll be “thankful” for! She started out right with “You came to Peru with me”.
TORAD_07 almost 10 years ago
I didn’t say, “Eat a safe…” ;-)
RonBerg13 Premium Member almost 10 years ago
Come on, Rosa. Take Gunth to your place and make a man out of him..She can’t – he’s shrinking.

If Mrs. B. brought home dates, wouldn’t Quill! have known about it? Maybe he did and didn’t want to tell Gunther.
