I don't understand what's going on here.

I mean, I know that Elliot gave up on his popcorn quest to launch into an erotic (and energetic) version of the Hokey-Pokey.

I guess he's interrupting her discussing the mechanics of sex? "The building blocks of conception" sure is a weird, clunky phrase to use, though.

Then I guess she realizes that her explanation is ridiculous, possibly harmful? I don't know?

And his last statement... The Hokey-Pokey is better than sex?

I feel like I'm just not GETTING something here, that I'm missing something obvious.

Anyway, although we're seeing Elliot in this little flashback, Juliette was dating a guy named Andy who was also divorced, and who had a kid. We saw him interacting with Edda a very small amount (usually when waiting for Juliette) but we never saw Juliette (or Edda) interacting with his kid. Anyway, here's Andy.

This would have been cuter with their kids involved but is otherwise a decent comic.

I'm still waiting for follow up on her "do you want a sibling" goggle-eyed horror strip.

It's the day before Christmas Eve and we finally see Lolly and Polly! The two adorable scamps are dressed in matching green dresses, because their parents have decided to lean HARD into the creepy twin thing and not permit them to have distinct personalities, and Amos is there in the same sweater he's been wearing all week. So presumably he's been hanging out chatting with the talking cat who wrote a novel, and also his breath I guess still smells like a shit-smeared anus.

Edda, a former professional dancer and model who apparently supports herself and her family now by playing piano in concerts and sometimes... working as a temp floating from place to place to play piano?... and who turned down a job offer to teach a music class at a prestigious private school, doesn't attend conferences. So why would she claim to "be at a conference"? It's a poor setup for the punchline.

And the punchline is, apparently, Edda at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show in some warm and sunny place with green grass and a blue sky? This is very obviously not NYC in December. Yet there she is doing that weird peppy march that dog handlers do when Showing their dogs, and there's Daphne (the white dog) being put through her paces.

Daphne, like Solange (the Siamese cat) and a few other cats (like the black cat that speaks English and wrote a novel) shows up a few times here and there but it's unclear who she belongs to. When she's depicted it's usually in a nature setting, like the open green spaces that Juliette lives in.

That's a bit of a digression, though. The main issue here, seriously, is that it's December and she's cavorting in a place with green grass and blue skies. There's a blizzard coating most of the USA right now and she's out and about prancing in the sunlight.

Merry Almost Christmas!

Sometimes McEldowney will abandon a story line mid-week but it appears this is going to keep going because who DOESN'T like watching minors talk about their future fucking and baby-having plans?

Part of what's so disturbing is the way everyone's phrasing this. It's not "if we have kids" it's "if we conceive a child." The focus isn't on the actual child, it's on the act of creating the child by which I mean sperm and egg uniting. Notice that there's also no mention of what they'll DO with the hypothetical baby/kid. They aren't looking forward to having a kid, they're focused solely on sperm meeting egg and creating a pregnancy.

Instead of asking "After marriage, right?" or "But you're getting married first, right?" or something similar Juliette busts out with "Having sworn the bonds of holy matrimony?"

The big reveal is that she has a hand around the back of Amos' neck. She isn't actually strangling him, she only has one hand and it's not against his throat.

But let's talk about these bonds of holy matrimony! Amos and Edda got married in early August of 2017 and that particular story line is abruptly interrupted by a few weeks of rerun strips about how sexy Edda is, including a bunch of pin-ups. This may have been around the time he was hospitalized with a stroke.

Amos and Edda got married in a church after being told that they weren't allowed to elope.

The start the ceremony, and begin making out before they begin reciting vows.

When they do start with the vows Edda abruptly runs off, into the cemetery. She and Amos have a talk about how sexy she finds Amos and it turns out she finds him very sexy. How sexy?



So sexy they fuck in the grass leaving her with grass stains all over her butt and back, a glaring message to every single person in the church that they ran out of said church to fuck.



Did they have hot makeouts involving Edda scaling Amos' body right there in the church, on the predella in front of the altar?



Haha, of course they did! They just went to hump town right then and there. They did it for so long that EVERYBODY LEFT.



They either lingered in the church, which has a window with curtains, or else went to a private room? Anyway, there's usually a gap between ceremony and reception so why are they worried about people wandering off? Are they that desperate for another quick fuck before going out to greet everyone?

Anyway, Edda's got his dick out before he can figure out what they should do with this brief moment of solitude.



Their official wedding photos are post-coital. Also, did you want to know that Amos spunked inside Edda in front of the church altar on their wedding day? Because now you know that.



And it's possible they snuck off to a private room or a hotel room instead of just fucking on the church floor but wherever they were there was a dog because why not.

What I'm trying to say is that their official religious church wedding, thrown together at the absolute last second because her mommy and her room mate wanted to dress her up like a doll and live vicariously through her, was a two-person orgy.

I guess that's the bonds of holy matrimony, the religious sacrament, that Juliette is referring to.

You know.

When you fuck outside the church then inside the church then purchase photos documenting how fucked up and greasy you got while fucking.

As one does.

If I were a real glutton for punishment I'd go spelunking for the strips chronicling the ceremony for Juliette's second marriage, to Elliot. They may or may not be legally married, their ceremony may have been a bizarre farce, but they live together. And they have sex.
