The one where Mike says that his plan is to go to a university in a city that's named something so that Lynn can say "I FOOLED YOU!!" like a damn six year old cretin.
Panel 1: The boys put on their ineptly photoshopped and clunky hockey helmets to go skiing as Brian asks Mike what his plan actually is. Mike says that since he was praised for writing too well to respond to because Martha couldn't decipher his huge-ass letter that said "Enough about me....what do you think of me?", he will be a (lousy) journalist.
Panel 2: This will entail his moving out of the house, making friends with a spoiled rich kid who lives in a fairy land and having one of Month Python's Pepperpots for a landlady.
Panel 3: We set up the joke by having him state that he cannot wait to move out and make his own decisions.
Panel 4: When asked where he's going, Mike says that his mother is looking into that for him.
Summary: This autonomy on Elly's terms is more or less why when it becomes too much like effort to pretend to be a grown man, adulthood's journey leads where it should: to the childhood doorstep so that a vain, ignorant and incompetent nitwit of a housewife who will never amount to anything will have the illusion of accomplishment because adult children are haplessly dependent on her. Also, the children who matter and don't tie Elly down to destroy her last hope of a career go to universities with names that allow Lynn to hoot like a gibbon because of the whole 'having an infantile and obnoxious sense of humor' she has.
