PATV 4th Panel: Dodging Bullets

Rehab

Going to watch right now. This will have to be really good to contend with the ping pong episodes of course.



Jerry's note taking for the comic ideas is always very weird!

This one is about the creation of this comic:



And about how this one got Jerry in trouble!

Gaslight

Jerry's expression in that preview...he is like a mischievous little gnome.

Rehab

Voicemail saves the day again!

PwnanObrien

But seriously guys, have you seen some of the penises they've got these days?

DarkPrimus

I'm not sure if they blurred that porn or if it was just a very well-selected still where nothing actually needed to get blurred or if the image was just so small that one can't tell anyway from where the camera was at...

Campion

I'm not sure if this discussion of infidelity is humorous or uncomfortable.

DarkPrimus

Oh I just noticed that cool ampersand that Jerry got for Christmas there in the background. Geez, has that been there all this time and I didn't notice it? I hope it was just camera angles that prevented me from spotting it.

Also note the 2010pax sign used to cover the window. a step up from the cardboard boxes of olde

I caught a pretty good screen capture of it and it is definitely a red-headed chick that looks like Jerry's wife giving a guy a blowjob. Not sure I can post that exactly but its not blurred!

Raneados

yeah i don't think it's censored at all

it is absolutely a chick giving a blowie

Ruliezy

Man, after watching this I feel so uncomfortable. Then again this could be a misunderstanding. If what he sees is real. (That indeed is his wife.) I'm sure all the facts will come out sooner or later. He could find the source of the picture and ask the administrator for the name of the people in the image.

Yeah, I'm conflicted on this myself

I mean

Maybe it was taken before they got together or something?

Or maybe it really isn't her but her long lost twin sister with amnesia

I don't know

This whole situation is really awkward

Romanian My Escutcheon

Why is it so easy for me to buy into a statistic that claims there is a 10:1 ratio of nasty-to-good vajayjays?

Okay well rewatching in HD then.

EDIT: Wow okay. Kind of surprised they didn't censor that. I usually watch in SD just because it loads quicker...

Olivaw

Part of me almost thinks that Gabe is doing his deadpan thing when he walks over and straight up says "the one thing we can be sure of is that is your wife"

I think we should all shut the fuck up about it, because this is a track of conversation that cannot end well for any party involved.

Rehab

I think its pretty clear they are joking about it. Its just one of those weird uncanny resemblance sort of things.

Also, it appears to be a profile picture of some sort. Probably from some kind of adult dating site.

Well, there's also the fact that they're filming it; I doubt Vantage Point film a real conversation about infidelity.

BlackDove

Major props for not censoring the image.

Also, great 4th panel.

We already did this when the new comic thread was about the comic. No one seriously thinks it's actually his wife.

Unless you're talking about talking about the uncensored porn still in the episode, which certainly falls under the discussion of the episode. It was certainly unexpected.

At first it was about the possibility of offending somebody by delving too deeply into the subject, but the more I think about it, the more unlikely that outcome seems.

Now it's more about discussing uncensored porn, which seems questionable to forum etiquette.

Then again, maybe I'm just being a humongous fucking pansy about the whole thing.

Rehab

For the sake of comparison:

So again, uncanny resemblance but that is where that ends. :P

Yeah probably a good idea.

PikaPuff

yeah I'm glad i finally got a glimpse of the thing. it was almost as annoying as not knowing the joke

gah WHAT IS THE JOKE

I don't know

I feel like I can usually tell when someone is deadpanning something and if it was just an uncanny resemblance thing I feel like Jerry and Mike would seem a little less awkward about it

And as much as they joke around in this episode I get the distinct feeling that they are not comfortable

Though that might just be me who knows

Rehab

What joke are you talking about here?

Romanian My Escutcheon

The joke is that all red-haired Caucasian women look the same.

new hire pt 1

Wimble

Olivaw I think any awkwardness you are sensing is simply because of Jerry being afraid of getting into trouble after seemingly annoying his wife by making a deal out of something she thinks is dumb and then making a comic for everyone to see about it and such

the notion that it would actually be his wife is super ridiculous, I feel

BlackDove

Sure.

But what if she is his wife, and she does get her nails done just so she can look pretty for her girth accentuated boyfriend?

Did you think about that?

Huh?

Poorochondriac

From what I could tell of the picture

I think it's really, really funny that Mike said he was well-endowed

I was thinking the exact same.

BlackDove

So was Jerry, but didn't want to go into it.

That's what the long pause was about.

Ryan A. Elliott

I kinda got the impression that this was a picture from her younger days.

If this was supposed to be a recent picture, I don't think it would have been brought up "publicly."

I also doubt everyone in the office would be making light of it in such a way.

At least, I hope it's not a recent picture.

Pretty sure the thing they're uncomfortable about is that Brenna might find out that there's a comic about it.
Not the fact that it might be really her.

Hamurabi

Why does Jerry type so dang hard.

Jeez.

Roger Wilco

I don't know, I think they are only half-serious. I think because there was a comic and now a patv episode about it, it seems like a big deal, but I bet he believes his wife and is only joking around with Mike.

yeah that's what I got from it

also it was just a super funny episode, especially the last joke at the end
