ANDI: Hey so... I wasn't gonna say anything about "her" yet, but since you know now... can I ask a favor?
TODD: What's up?
ANDI: Well... like I said, I’m not telling kiddo about it yet. So...
ANDI: I was wondering if I could talk
you into a dedicated day of the
week for Amanda to do a stayover?
TODD: Setting up a “Date Night”?
TODD: Alright, but I reserve the right to ask the same favor later.
ANDI: Ha ha, go for it. Maybe try smooching Ms. Afkhami again.
TODD: OH GOD. Are people talking about that? How do you even know that?
ANDI: UUUUUHHH RIIIGHT how DO I know that...

I realized while drawing this one that I think I'm taking some unconscious cues from the Fire Emblem Three Houses' character Leonie for Andi's hair.
Oops. Ah, the temptations of gossip.
Ah yes, the biggest complication of keeping secrets: keeping track of what you discovered from those secrets, so you don’t accidentally reveal your secret by divulging info that could have only come from that secret.
Uh-oh! Think fast Andi!
Ah, nothing like making a joke & absolutely hitting the nail on the head.
I wouldn’t have thought about it until you said it, but now I absolutely see it.
Quick, Andi, think fast, don’t implicate the girlfriend.
Saw it on YouTube. Yeah, that’s it. Was in my recommend feed. Yeah…
Ah yes. Let’s bring up the time Todd committed sexual assault.
Go with a classic!
“I’m sorry but all questions must be submitted in writing.”
Jessie really needs to learn the phrase “loose lips sink ships”. XD
Indeed… although in part this is on Mina Afkhami for telling Jessie herself.
I suppose she felt like talking to someone about it, and Jessie is both a close colleague, and not part of the local Muslim community at all, so seemed “safe” to tell.
Live and learn, I suppose.
Two passengers in the same boat. 😛
When will this year end so those two can date?
Todd’s face in panel five is so perfect I winced in sympathy.
Andi. It is perfectly possible, and even expected, to simply say “I have my ways” or “I never give up my sources” and then smirk knowingly. Hardly anyone bothers following up.
