Taking off from the suggestion by Anonymous at 9:19 a.m., Wilbur and Ian can play “Vsn You Top This?” Ian has lost his self esteem and pretentions of being Professor Stud Muffin but isn’t on the hook for any jewelry or dance lessons (as far as we know). In this competition, Wilbur rules.
Oh, wonderful, we’re in for another round of “poor, poor, pitiful me”, only starring Ian instead of Wilbur. Reviewing past interactions, we might expect whiskey on the cliff, long steamy showers, followed by a Mary with Muffins intervention, karaoke, and perhaps kite flying. I had high hopes of Jannie following through with a false sexual harassment accusation, but I’m going to bet we never see her again.
I'm kind of confused with Ian's thoughts. I don't remember Jannie saying she had feelings for him. She was just giving him complementary remarks about his so called "teaching" and trying to get an A for doing nothing but wink at him. Don't flatter yourself Ian. Like everyone has said before me, Ian, you are a dope. If I was you, I'd get Dr. Sweater Therapist's number from Wilbur. He's so great and he'll cure you in one visit.
My wish is for Jannie to get expelled (for her over the top foul mouth ranting and raving) and for Ian to lose his tenure (for standing there and taking it like a jerk and for thinking that this young dummy had any feelings for a fat, long haired chinbeard loser like him).
fauxprof, I don't think it's too late for a sexual harassment allegation. Given Jannie's penchant for attempting easy answers, the only way I see her saving her grade in this class is to come up with something like sexual harassment or global warming, or scabies... I'm betting even Toby would buy that he harassed Jannie. And the only way Jannie gets expelled is if Ian reports her, which I bet he doesn't have a clue how to do... Also, KM has a tendency to blame whatever woman is involved.
Anonymous @2:33 I was thinking the same thing this morning and forgot all about it until you mentioned it. Maybe it's one of those sharks that Mary told Toby about.
Ian needs to discuss this with Wilbur. Wilbur will suggest showers, karaoke and a lot of hard drinkin'. At least Ian's not out of 30K for an emerald ring.

Toby will be giddy when Ian tells her, and she'll rush out to tell Mary all about it.
It looks like prospective study buddy Michael has dodged the proverbial bullet -- or ICBM.
-- Scottie McW.
To reiterate my previous post: Ian, you dope.
Darn, I wanted to see how Jannie and Ian's meeting finally ended. I assume Jannie is going to drop his class.
Ian is a dope. Maybe when he gets home, Toby can accuse him of having an affair and he can head to the Thinkin' and Drinkin' cliff with some scotch.
Today's Boldface Haiku is titled
"The Adventures Of Ian The Pooh".
(Fool...)
Silly old man!
(Pretty real!)
Maybe Ian should join Wilbur in therapy? Or Wilbur can join Ian on the Drinkin' cliff with scotch and muffins?

Sheesh, “Vsn” should be “Can” in my previous comment. (How the heck...?!)
If I'm Ian I'm going home thinking about what a stupid girl Jannie is.

Wanders, since we all agree, can Rodgers and Hammerstein's " The Gentleman is a Dope" be added to the Charterstone Jukebox?

I really hope that Ian says the same thing to Toby - "I should have known no pretty girl could have feelings for me."
Is there a reason that Flipper is passing Ian in the other car? Possible plot foreshadowing?
Dolphins do breathe air you know....
There would be no porpoise in having a dolphin appear in this story.

@meg wins the Internet! And is awarded a rimshot! Ba-DUMP-bump!
Brigman will have to go a long way to beat this one as 'Floating Head' of 2019.
YOU've been a fool? What about us? We're the ones who keep expecting these characters to act like actual earthlings.
