Okay, that’s a interesting change. I mean, that both are/were nervous about the date.
A little bad for Rachel, but if she can make something with her friends it will be a good evening for her, too.
Next to wait … will superhero time appear during dinner, will bots raid the restaurant , will Emma turn out to be mastermind, or will Emma be killed during attack; find out in next episode of ctrl alt del!
If the Organisation didn’t use a straw man I don’t think that Emily is the mastermind.
It has been 3,5 Years now, but we but in the comic that was released on November, 24 2014 the person on the monitor (even we can’t recognize much) was male. https://cad-comic.com/comic/analog-and-d-pad-01-27/
While I doubt it is Emily, the picture on the screen means nothing; there was no movement or a proper face shown so it could have easily been a static image/loop of someone else. The true villain could be easily a male or a female or even something else…like, I don’t know, a penguin?
she is a kepper ethan for she is crazy enough to want to still go on the date even after all that just happened. and maybe the next one rachel will get to join them at last

Hm, there is one this I didn’t noticed until now. This is the first comic strip where Emily and Rachel have green eyes. In every comicstrip before there eyes where black and white.
She has green eyes in some previous strips as well. Whether I add the color depends on whether the art is large enough in a particular panel for it to even be noticeable.
And if we ever get a really close zoom-in to her face, you’ll be able to see the faint “X” imprint on her iris, confirming that she’s the Microsoft version of the T-800 and ready to kill them all with one word from Zeke.
Sorry, couldn’t resist. 😀

You know, I was kind of wondering why Emily was taking Ethan’s freaking out so well. It’s like, at some point that would start to get, if not irritating, but a little unattractive. But if she can identify herself as *just* as nervous as Mr. Lucas-Is-My-Food-Taster, that kind of implies a lot about her. Like, it’s kind of likely that she’s been hurt before, possibly by someone with an opposite personality. Maybe she as well is afraid of getting back into dating. And with Rachel’s comment – ‘you deserve someone sweet’ – makes my heart break a little. That’s the… Read more »
wow, that comment from Rachel really made this more relateable. i had a couple friends who “needed some sweet” in the same implied way.
they are together now and actually moved in with eachother in less than a month (which is not advised, but it worked out this time.) They’ve been together for almost 2 years now.
You aware that both may feel to be socially awkward, possibly on loner/introvert (extrovert person is enjoying situation with multiple people (even strangers) introvert dislikes such situation, especially with strangers) side so getting in date situation with person they barely know much about but hold interest towards is situation to be nervous about for them-

Holy carp, if Andrew was anymore chill, you could sharpen his head and use him for a javelin.
Contact-cringe would have killed me were I on this train wreck of social awkwardness, but not Andrew; hands in pockets, he’s still laaaaid well back.
Andrew’s actually an automaton; he was made by a local roboticist to see what would happen. He is unable to do more than minor gestures and has a fairly shallow Chat AI. He also goes “bzzzt” and deactivates if he showers. Incredible driver though.
Two sticks? What if the sweat trickle down? Planning and strategy Ethan GOD!
thats what the baby powder is for
This comment wins
I laughed way too hard at that last panel.
Hahahaha, me too! Most amusing!
His date skills are still so better than mine…
Tim, shouldn’t it be ‘I think it would _be_ better if this fifth wheel rolled on.’ ?
Fix’d
In my mind I just hear that in Chandler’s voice.

Her name is Emily not Emma.

“You deserve someone sweet?”
Well fuck, Ethan had better get out while he still a chance.
That lady may be damaged goods!
…or maybe she just is still coming to terms with something bad?
I’m totally betting on OU ethan being mastermind
It would be fun if he comes back and starts screaming at Ethan about Lilah and Zeke and time travel.
She is gonna be a super evil! Wait for it!
Rachel is a cool girl. The date is saved! Onto the date!
Just the cover Rachel needs to program XBot for the attack!
Exactly what I was thinking!
I hoped for 2 more pages of awkward situations.
Oh well.
Who says we aren’t going to get any?

not someone sweet. some sweet. Ethan gets laid tonight, unless he screws up… Oh, right, Ethan… Nevermind. Lets hope he gets a new chance later ;- )
How old are these people supposed to be? It’s a freakin’ date, not a marriage audition. Calm down already.
…the hell’s a “marriage audition?” XD
A marriage audition is when someone volunteers to be…..
Okay, I can’t make up a proper B.S. definition for this. Sorry people, you are own your own.
