    Usually, on TV shows, the “paybacks” are making someone think you’re going to get them "when they least expect it, and they’re supposed to go: “Ohhhh!! I’d better keep an eye out!” and then they are on guard with their eyes pried open with scotch tape…even when they are sleep…. sure they’ll miss blinking… but it’s the price for being on guard….. – They practice ducking when they open a locker, go “AHAAAAH!!!” when they go down a hallway, they set a record for the high jump at the tap of a shoulder…. This goes on for 2 weeks, 3 days, 7 hours, 3.57 minutes…. – But, the whole time… the “payback” was the psychological experiment they just performed, getting you to “freak out in expectation”, when nothing was coming… Oh… almost forgot, while they watch their plot in action, they open a bag of “Jiffy Pop”….

    Knute definitely missed an opportunity. Not a good idea to let your woman fight your battles.

    So far, Crystal’s power is making her right hand disappear behind Knute.(Hey, where’s my wallet?)

    I’m not one for speculation, but I’m looking at Knute’s expressions and wondering what Crystal is doing with her right hand?

    Greg missed the opportunity for someone to walk in and catch Crystal kissing Knute on the bathroom floor. That would have floored everyone.

    Well, all’s well that ends well. In the end, hopefully the “facilities” will be re-redistricted to reflect the student body populations (proportionate count of men vs. women facilities by population) and this won’t happen again. Not that it’s what this week’s arc was about, anyway (that being Crystal and Knute’s relationship).

    As an anecdote, I transferred to a different HS in my junior/senior year. In one particular building the “boys” facility was on the 2nd floor and he girls directly below it on the 1st. Problem was, the Girls facility windows faced the main courtyard, and was too much a temptation for the boys. It hadn’t been an issue, historically, as this particular building was on the campus of a ( former) “all girls” school that merged with an all boys school next door. Thus, in my senior year, they swapped genders on each of those facilities, and now girls was 2nd floor and boys was first with windows facing the courtyard.

    No more worries, apparently. :)

    ENOUGH of the “Special Power” B-S, Crystal.

    If You HAD any Kind of “POWER” You would’ve used it to PREVENT Needle-Nose FROM Punching K-Boy in the GUT in the First Darn Place.

    We may never know what Crystal’s revenge was..

    Sometimes the worst thing you can do to a person is nothing. No hurt, no help.And you practically never go to prison for nothing..A man my father worked with amused himself with insulting Daddy. “I sure got Green that time.”“You fool you’ll know what gettin got feels like when Green gets you.”Some time later the fellow did something worthy of termination but the company respected PappaSan enough to extend one more chance if Daddy asked them to.“I’d rather not get involved.” (The man really couldn’t be trusted.)As he was walking out the gate for the last time, the former co-worker who had warned him asked, “Remember what I said?”The ex-employee nodded his head, too late understanding consequences and revenge served cold — not that I’m sure it was really revenge.

I couldn’t figure out which season it was!… – But also, every time that Burns tries to catch them doing something, they usually turn the tables and make him look like the fool, so that too technically qualifies, Lol!… – 1 show down, a gazillion other shows to go, in regards to remembering this “crazy plot device”…..

    Actually, she’s already let her “secret” out, as they were walking… Knute keeps drawing attention, and she’s hoping no one notices why their noses are yelling in their general direction… – She was hoping to time it right, and have everyone “pin the skunk” on Les…..

    Some Commentators (if not Evans) had Les pretty much labeled as Satan incarnate yesterday.From @Leviticus:“Wow! Les’s reputation is growing by leaps and bounds. Starts of as a bully and the next day he is a serial rapist. He has gone from a thug to a Hitler Protégé. In another day he is going to be the Antichrist.”

    Wouldn’t this be a great moment; like in the scene from Woody Allen’s “Annie Hall” where he’s standing on line for a movie and a Columbia professor is bragging about his insights into Marshall MacLuhan amd Woody pulls Mr. MacLuhan out from behind a cigarette machine to tell the egghead, “you know nothing of my work.”If we could only pull Greg Evans from behind the scenes…
