Panel 2 – The thought finger is pointing at the light bulb thought balloon as Michael stares directly at the readers. Michael is definitely breaking the fourth wall. Too bad he is breaking the wall with this terrible, terrible pun.
Panel 7: Elly’s expression does seem to say, "You left them because they are leaves. I cannot believe MIchael actually tried to get out of work with word play this bad. We are Pattersons. We have standards. There is no family pride in him. I might have let him pass if he had said:
I had to take time off from raking. I was on paid leaf. I am telling the truth. You are filled with disbe-leaf. You should be g-leaf-ull. This exemp-leaf-ies a terrible leaf pun."
