Tuesday's For Better or for Worse

Is it just me, or does it really sound like Candace is about to ask Lizardbreath to be her date to the wedding in panel one? And then in panels two through four Ellie Jr Elizabeth either just doesn't get it or pretends to not get it to avoid Candace propositioning her? And in panel five, the joke is that Candace sees through that, makes a veiled sarcastic criticism of the patriarchy involved in weddings that also works to cut through Elizabeth's excuses while the Patterson swoons?

Am I the only one interpreting it this way? Well, I might just be the only person still holding out for the best FBOFW plot twist ever.
