Jeff: Yeah, sorry all you conspiracy theorists out there, the mysterious figure was just Bal, in his doofy hat and duster. And I really like what Jeremy did with the last panel here…feels almost Abbey Road-esque. We just need a fourth person in there, and one of them to take off their shoes…

Jeremy: Bal thinks he’s so cool in that first panel. “Yeah, I got a tattoo and you not-as-cool guys don’t know it yet.”  But even with that over-confidence, will anything either of these guys do impress Elle one iota?  She’s a tough nut to crack.

Everyone say goodbye to Square One Coffee for now!  We’ve hung out here for quite a few strips now,  but it’s time to move on to other Lancaster, PA “pastures”.
