Oh $#*@.

Is that a Lu Ann Powers original hanging on Dr. Bryant's wall?I just love the Professor in that last panel. It's such a classic "oh shit" moment: face frozen, clutching the phone for dear life, absense of any noticable reaction while his mind screaming "OH CRAP OH CRAP THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE I'M TOTALLY SCREWED."

Meanwhile Dr. Bryant looks happy as a clam to describe how crazy his old pal's girlfriend is. "Yup, the pills used to work, but she stopped taking them because she's crazy! Chuckle chuckle! You still there buddy? 'Cause there's more."

The Professor today reminded me of one of my favorite A3G panels in recent history:

Lu Ann? Honey? It's a simple question.The Professor has a perfectly good reason to be dumbstruck in his panel; Lu Ann, sadly, does not. Here's my post on the panel for context.

It actually look like the Professor HAS been shot and is about to drop the phone and breathe his last breath. Bobbie can't let him know her terrible secret. Dr. Bryant's next - she can't wait for things to run their course.

Ha ha! Who knew that a comic with just Dr. Bryant and the Professor talking on the phone could be so awesome? This makes me even more excited for what future strips with Bobbie will hold! The professor: still has tricks up his crazy-dating sleeve.
