    I like the way that Michael immediately jumps to the conclusion that Rhetta has met someone else after she says that 4 years is too long.

    Ironic that Rhetta and April have identical haircuts.

    Well we know Michael didn’t marry her, now we know why. Also, his tooth must really hurt, can’t Dad do something for/about the pain?

    Remember that time last summer when “we” forgot to wear “protection?”

    First panel, third line: That’s what she said.

    Third panel: She’s telling you now, Doofus.

    Final panel: Why is April biting Michael?

    That hug needed to be on the other side.

    It never entered Mike’s mind that Rhetta had other plans. All he was thinking of was HIS schooling and she was just going to sit idly by while he did what he wanted. There’s a whole world out there for Rhetta and not just for Mike.

    Memories. I met the man I eventually married when we were in college. We clicked but never dated because he had a girlfriend back home. After winter break, he asked me for a date. His girlfriend dumped him because she had found someone else. Worked great for me!

    Rhetta: “I met a guy who came home for the first Christmas in years. As we worked together to save the annual Christmas festival, he helped me remember the true meaning of Christmas. And his dog is adorable!”

    That would be funny if this strip was animated with sound. With that swelled cheek Michael would sound like Jabba the Hutt!

    Rhetta isn’t exactly forthcoming about it, is she? Trying to hide Something without actually trying to hide something…

    Rhetta’s desperation to hide her lie leads to the idiocy and the agony!

    This strip is a far cry from when Michael graduated high school.

    The magic of prom night has worn off.

    Don’t prolong the pain Mike (pun intended). Find a nice girl at University and move on. I am sure Rhetta will find another nice guy…
