Why are you lying about enjoying pizza, Jared? We can clearly see that you don’t have any pizza. Are you trying to trick Dawn into thinking you’ve suddenly come into money, or is this your subtle way of letting Dawn know that you don’t believe her cockamamie story about a boyfriend. In France.

You're not helping yourself, Jared. What next? Are you going to cry?

Uh Dawn, no one in America says "university". That is mainly a British term for college. Stop trying to make us and Jared think you're all high falutin', because we know you're not. (Medical Assistant Jared, not so much.)
Since Jared has no pizza and just a drink, he is probably one of these people who nurse a soft drink for hours on end so they can use the free WiFi. He's probably on his phone looking for the nearest Star Wars convention.
Is it me, or is Jared getting more uglier with each passing day?
It drives me crazy that KM insists that, in order to be happy, you have to be with someone, and if you are not, you are a loser.
Should we add Crosby, Stills and Nash's "Love the One You're With" to the jukebox?
Look at all that bolding. Nance, we miss you. (Anyone know how she's doing? I know she has a blog, but I can't remember the URL.)
Here's the URL for Nance's blog. Hasn't been updated in some time it seems:

Dawn's line in panel 2 reminds me of something. Haven't we all known a girl/woman who spontaneously and frequently brings up her boyfriend (who no one has ever seen) just to let you know that she has a boyfriend? It's a little bit sad, actually.
Anyway, I assume there's some reason that Moy has brought these two together. They're not going to just finish their meal/drink and go their separate ways. So what will it be? I can't imagine Dawn falling for Jared, so the plot must involve Jared doing . . . what?
You could cut the suspense with a spoon.

My money's on Jared's "nerdy" internet sleuthing revealing Hugo to be a (non-French) grifter.
Actually I didn't hear Dawn ASK Jared if he was "with" anyone. She does tend to narrate her life for the benefit of all who will listen. In return Jared could have regaled her with tales of his Star Wars exploits or at least his most recent car repair. Please, we're starving here.
I brought my studying to go with my dinner. Really? Like an appetizer? The dialogue is torture.
Torture indeed, @Sandi Ego. “That’s great! You’re looking great!” plus Dawn’s inane remarks. Egad.
There’s no pizza on Jared's table because his nerdy self ate it. And thus KM embarks on a multiple-personality plot, “The Three Faces of Jared.”
Dawn talks about Hugo like Jan Brady talked about her "boyfriend":
“you have a boyfriend? What’s his name, Jan?”
“Er, George!”
“George what?”
(Sees a carton of Tropicana) “George… Tropicana!” (Someone pours it into a glass) “No wait, Glass. George Glass!”
You have a boyfriend in France? How funny, I used to have a girlfriend in, er, Canada.
@TimP, thanks. Nance, if you're lurking, we miss you and hope you're doing okay!
I want to hear Jared say, "Gee, Dawn, why does your hair look like it's been chewed off?"
Immoral fraud? You fell for him, Dawn. It takes two to tango.
Jared: I’m a finalist in the Sterling Holloway lookalike competition.
Dawn (and everyone else): Who’s Sterling Holloway?
@meg at 10:30 a.m., but does Jared sound like Sterling Holloway?
In Santa Royale one can become a “physician assistant” after completing one speedy online course. Why spend years of study and clinicals like everywhere else?
“So far, so good! No patients have died, and I haven’t been fired!” Jared and Dawn are made for each other. Good grief.
@meg, I almost choked at your comment. I wonder if Jared like Winnie the Pooh?
I've lived on this earth a long time and never have I heard anyone called an "immoral fraud". A cretin, yes, but not an "immoral fraud". I wonder if Wilbur used that phrase to describe himself and Fabiana?
Also, I'd love to be a fly on the wall at KM's house and hear how she verbally interacts with other people, because the way she writes leaves a lot to be desired.
Dawn meant to say immortal fraud — that Fletcher Guy, they say he can’t be killed!
