Yeeeeesh; not only do I hate being right, I hate how low-rent Elly's tastes are.
Panel 1: We start today's strip with Elly bugging her eyes out looking at Connie's ugly-ass makeover and yelling "Holy cow! Connie?"
Panel 2: Connie boasts "It's the new me! New clothes, new hair, new everything!" This is, of course, bullshit because we have to deal with the same neediness, same lack of any real empathy for Lawrence, same lack of intellect, et cetera.
Panel 3: Instead of acting like a human being and calling her on her priorities, Elly smiles appreciatively and tells her she looks like a million bucks.
Panel 4: As she sits down to drink her coffee, Connie tells Elly that she's feeling terrific so can she not discuss how much it cost.
Summary: What they can and will discuss is how Phil strung Connie along because he's an Evil Man and how Elly was right about that; what they won't ever discuss are the irrelevant feelings of the brown kid with his leg in a cast.
