    Appropriate drama on several regards, but with people often telling her that she over-reacts will Luann realize that this time she is completely correct?

    So many potential threads here. Some gay women get sexually involved with men on occasion – some have even wound up getting married to a guy. However in this situation – it just seems like Pru wants to have her cake and eat it too.

    On the 24th Les purposely misleads Pru into thinking that he spent just a couple of dollars above the $20 limit.  On the 26th he mntions tomhis uncle that everyone is in his business.

    .

    To me this sounds from the second that Leslie felt he had a need to hide money.  Misleading Pru into thinking the piece was costume jewelry also sounds like that.

    .

    Now, it may be that Les is trying to make his own kind of restitution, but he already knows that he can steal from Pru and from the program so he might view them as a hiding place to steal from again if he decides to skip town.  

    .

    Of course, if the money for the children’s program that is dear to Pru’s heart is above petty cash level it would be banked, but the amount is unlikely to meet the minimal amount some banks require.  So, where will the necklace and money be?  At the Fuse?  In the Degroot’s house?  Will Les commit B and E at their home?  Will someone be home?  Will Puddles try to protect the home?

    .

    Others will have other guesses.  These are mine.

    If this were real life I wouldn’t predict this story line ending in a good place. At worst it might end with Les having to attend anger management classes, probably taught by Dirk to create tension between the newlyweds.

    She’s not naive. She figures why tell him when he’s giving out the goodies. She’s not the first woman to do that, straight or gay. Men do it too. Being honest isn’t “making drama.”

    Do we have any idea how old Pru is? (She looks much older than the rest of the young people.) As Les was in high school with Luann he can’t be any older than 19 (unless he was held back). I’d be a bit uncomfortable if a man that young was buying me jewelry, even if I wasn’t sure how much it really cost.

    If being gay is a genetic thing, then maybe Pru doesn’t have the “sensors” to recognize the chemistry being radiated by Les. Most lesbians send out an unmistakable negative vibe when coming in contact with men. Beware, guys, what you see is what you get. Pru, however, is not a hostile person, so straight or gay, she simply likes people.

    A necklace of that size, costing only $370, is likely either sterling silver or very nice costume jewelry. These days, I think it would it would even be hard to find a large sterling silver pendant with that much handwork (looking at the beads) for that price. But “costume” doesn’t necessarily mean “cheap,” – it just means the piece wasn’t made with real precious metals or precious stones.

    I don’t think Pru is naïve as some have said. I think she’s an open person who takes people and things at face value. The gift exchange was not meant to be serious or to have strings attached, and she likes the necklace. But hopefully Luann and others will fill her in on Les or she will find out on her own and adjust accordingly. Pru does have a point in that Luann IS the drama queen compared to others.

    Because a normal lesbian would have said, “Sorry, I can’t take this gift as your girlfriend, I’m a lesbian.” In Luannverse, it’s, “…I’ll accept the gift now and tell him later.”

    Clearly Pru doesn’t know the male species and did not properly read Les’s gift as an interested man giving a woman a romantic gift. Since she is into women, it is safe to assume she doesn’t know or understand men. Time for her to learn – she will be hit up often and she needs to learn to read men. I question whether Luann would be the best tutor?
