This strip took me a little more than usual, but I think it was worth the effort. Just a couple of things: According to the different places I've seen on the web, 'Kawauso' means 'river otter' in Japanese, so I thought it was a pretty appropriate name for a sushi restaurant. And the thing the Japanese waiter is thinking as he takes note of the orders is supposed to mean "Silly yankees!" But I know no Japanese at all (except kawauso), so if I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me.

This is what I'd call 'hitting a nerve'! When you're young, it's OK if you get cuddly with other people, but how would react if somebody like Ms. Huskinson came to cuddle you with no warning?

I'm sure we've all passed thru one of those moments in which we use a pre-made polite comment and we end up messing it. Like, saying a kid 'is identical to their parent' even if there's no relationship with the kid and their supposed parent! Well, at least, I embarassed myself with such a comment, not too long ago! However, Audrie Thompson doesn't seem to care, as she's been stepping on people's toes for many years, and she gets on Alice's nerves pretty soon!
Soon, a flashback where Sally Huskinson remembers her tortured childhood! Don't miss it!
