The guy I started dating at a summer job had gotten a Blue Apron trial kit but couldn't cook. I cooked it for him, and that started our relationship

Marc Tabor

Why did i read panel 4 in Gronk's voice?

Josh Moberly

Elliot in panel 4 is how I feel when I try dating.

Saibh

Go Elliot !!!!

Ted Van Roekel

Simmer 500ml of ruby port until it's reduced by 50%. Add 50g of white sugar, stir. Should now be a moderate syrup. Add 100g each of raspberries, halved strawberries, and blackberries. Simmer until fruit is softened. Serve over sponge cake with good quality vanilla bean ice cream. Also goes great over waffles, pound cake, pancakes, etc, but angel food soaks it in better.

Grumpy Bird

sure as heck would work on me

Ruth Merriam

Anyone else nodding along because they've done this, and succeeded in landing their beloved with mad cooking skillz?

Did Elliot borrow Renee's apron or something? Seems like it's barely longer than his shirt.

Some Ed

It may be incontrovertible evidence, but it's certainly not a flattering way to talk about it.

Daryl Sawyer

I'd ship a fresh frozen loaf of pre-sliced sourdough for an autographed printout or something.

Daryl Sawyer

Lmao, boy do I know that feel.

Ace

Penem et circenses

Danielle Church

see the thing that makes me happy about this is that this is the first incontrovertible sign Clinton has given Elliot that he is *actually* potentially interested, and that he wasn't just being polite when he said "I'm thinking about it"! I hope Elliot picks up on it.

Sorastro

Sly Elliot is sly ... Briefly

The best kind of surprise 'bun in the oven' to come across while dating.

Daniel Blom Paulsen

I am convinced there's a penis/panis joke in here somewhere ...

Elliot makes me think of the large owner of the General Store/Sauna from Frozen.

Stephen Wells

"I have the low ground! You cannot not defeat me now!"

Stephen Wells

In actual chemistry we call it "steric hindrance" :)

Martin Trebuch

I LOL'd ... 🤣

Stephen Wells

Elliot secretly does pro wrestling under the moniker of Stone Ground.

Their chemistry is awkwardness! :-)

David Pipes

*Another* bread-based attraction? ....Starting to wonder about you Jeph... :-)

Da Nargh!!

Its already Valley of the Penis at this rate

Todd Ellner

Just kiss?

KHawk

I simply would like these dummies to kiss please

Jimmy Thorsell

❤️ The ship is sailing!!! *heavy breathing*

Bacon Lord

Glad Clinton thinks about potential relationships like math feels relatable

Some Ed

What hiding spot? She's sitting at one of the tables, eating bread like a good customer. It's not her fault that Clinton completely failed to see her there.

MikeT

Smooth Operatorrrrrrrrr.....

Bagge

*Finishes strip* Never mind, we are back to our usual business

Bagge

Wow. Eliot is suave.

Daniel S

Good lord it's like they're trying to out-bottom each other.

Paul Britt

His weighing/calculating of the pro's and con's of a relationship with Elliot

David Jackson

Just the process of making a decision, weighing the pros and cons. Doing the "math." Clinton is basically saying that despite trying to walk it back, Elliot's semi-joking come on was actually pretty convincing.

EnterTheHero

Clinton be like, “shit, you right”

Brent

Personal calculus? What does that mean?

William Cole

Same.

William Cole

We see what you did there.

Karvil

Hrm... Toss a Fig to your Clinton? Kinda fits in.

Will Weaver

NOW KISS

Miyaa

We’re at the point when Claire pops out from her hiding spot and scream “Kiss already you dolts!”

Bruce

This has happened to me too, and I am still baking for both of them.

Hugh Eckert

I love their expressions in the last panel. So very typical of them.

dstayton

Ah yes the gay panic I love to see.

I once got a girlfriend based in part on my baking skills.

Somebody Else

Jeph in the third panel you forgot to draw Clinton's thought bubble of Clinton and Elliot saying "I do" at their wedding

I am the captian now

Never thought i would see Elliot make the 😏 face

Ace

Nah, he acts a lot like me when I'm hot for someone, and I already know I'm gay.

John Fiala

I mean... I'd let him bake for me for the rest of my life.

Gary Walker

Elliot in panel two is extremely sex guy.

awgiedawgie

And Roko will be incredibly jealous!

Dean Reilly

Roko, fig loaf and bread egg. Crumbs everywhere!

Andrea Andrew

Is this Faye/Bubbles 2.0? If so, awesome!

James C

In Maya Rudolph voice “they’re gonna have sex on a bed made of bread, y’all!”

Bartley J Drood

You laugh at his bread skills, but I'm here to say, if you provide me with top quality Sourdough or Pugliese on regular basis then I'm willing to date you.

Magic Chopstick Games

NOW TRY THE DATE BREAD uwu

The World Famous Chocomerican

Honestly I just don't think Clinton is attracted to Elliot. He might be open to an Achillean relationship, but he isn't flirting, seems oblivious, and isn't at all enthusiastic. Elliot deserves better.

The World Famous Chocomerican

Definitely worth factoring in.

Tamara Macadam

***BABY***

Simon Green

The aftermath of the inevitable threesome with Roko is going to be hilariously uncomfortable.

BobC

Once the hook is taken, it is important to pull gently to set it, and NOT immediately yank and rip it out! Patience, Elliot, patience.

Fuzzy Logik

Too bad him and Roko don't seem to line up that way.

Onyx

I love Elliot <3

dirtknight

CUTE LOVE IT

runrin

so domestic. adorable

Daniel Burnett

Just kiss already!

Hedgie

Not necessarily giving up, just expanding beyond…

Nicolas Demers

So that's what it takes to get Forward Elliot: get him excited about bread

Yahsho Jinn

Must be amazing bread to have him considering giving up on women

Grace Kieser

"Hmmmm... I'm not sure I'm bi, but that's some damn good bread!"

LorettaYoungSilks

Basilisk is steaming in the corner watching this interaction

I almost did a spittake reading this, why is Elliot so relatable. I really hope these two work out, their dynamic is just perfect

Ted Van Roekel

Because even jaded old sinners like me remember being that innocent, and love it.

Peter Jensen

Some very good Elliot faces in this one

Jackie Horn

SOMEONE HIT HIS RESET BUTTON!!!!!!

Ted Van Roekel

Said Conan, gesturing with a dagger.

Good Lord! Why do I blush at Elliot blushing?!

Shawn K. Younkin

Smoooooth. Honestly, it WAS pretty smooth, Elliot of course had a freak out. Just chill Elliot and trust Clinton.

Fart Captor

Meghan

"Through his stomach" indeed.

Jason

Clinton is clearly piecing together what we've all known for awhile.

Michael Boettger

A confession from Elliot. And Clinton is thinking seriously about this. After all this drama, they are going the best couple. Assuming things, that is.

Christy Brown

Smooth

Thisguy

Yeah, but that means that Clinton would have to test taste all of Elliot’s experiments and ‘breads of the week’. And we know that there are some he doesn’t like. Or maybe that’s good, because Elliot would know that Clinton is being honest.

Clinton's like: "The man makes a good case"
