I'm never exactly sure how old Sam and Abbey are supposed to be -- yes, they're the parents of two women who are both in their early to mid 20s, but they're the adoptive parents of those two women and more to the point adopted them when those two women were tweens, so reproductive biology isn't necessarily a factor and Sam and Abbey could be as young as their ... early 40s, maybe? My point is that Abbey in panel two looks a lot an elder millennial influencer with a lot of lip filler doing a front-facing camera reel about "My adopted daughter? Taking care of our friend's granddaughter who's been abandoned by her parents due to a series of espionage-related shenanigans? Let me stop you right there with a big 'no' -- and that's the tea, sis."
