Marital discord (implied in Andy's case)

Gil Thorp, 8/19/25

When Gil says he's "trying not to take it personally" that his ex wife is now "play[ing] for the other side," you probably think he's referring to the fact that his wife left him for her female golf coach, but that's old news: in fact, she's going to be coaching for the other side, by which I mean she's taken the job of athletic director at hated Milford rival Valley Tech. Anyway, more important question: what's happening on top of Kaz's head? Is that a man bun, or some kind of fascinator attached to his hairband? The strip colorist seems to be refusing to grapple with this and is trying very hard to make whatever it is blend into the background.
