Can’t say I’ve heard of this “getting panned” expression before, and neither of the uses I was able to look up seem to match the figurative meaning you’re implying (as opposed to the literal meaning of a pan being used on a person; no confusion there).
Phooey. Introducing the skillet (as well as the knife) is a bit unfair; just as the nude grappling was about to start…I think the Nurse should demand a rematch!
All that remains now is for fatso to choke to death on Sherri’s sandwich, and the mission is complete. Pity about the frying-pan. It might have been good for one more bang – on the chief’s head.
I was on a camping trip once where another couple had…issues. At one point, one of the couple started screaming and—to avoid beating the crap out of his partner—bashing a big 5’ diameter boulder at the side of the stream with his 10” cast iron skillet. The boulder was basalt. After a dozen or so blows, the boulder—which was already throwing off finger-sized chunks with every blow—split in half. The skillet was scuffed but undented. Didn’t even bend the handle.
Lana, this is so unprofessional! You don’t damage such a beautiful pan on someone like Sherri! But I gotta admit that the last panel made me laugh out loud

It usually means getting a negative review for one’s work or performance. In this case, Nell’s getting a very negative review from Lana!
Nice positioning on Lana there.
Lana’s all about getting in the best positions!

She’ll have to make sure it takes place somewhere with no cast iron pans lying about!
Yeah something tells me that she deserves to be hit with a frying pan…
In general, on a regular basis!
“Shane, you hit him with your gun. I hate you!”
Just like Lana, Shane couldn’t buy a break!
Lana saved the biggest bang for last.
Yes, that pan had just enough left for one last swack!

Maybe Lana can find a backup pan somewhere in the kitchen.
The damage to the pan is proof of Sherris thick head Lana used no more force than what the nurse got.
Yes, exactly!
At least the nurse was nice to Lana
Yeah, if Sherri had be nicer Lana might not have hit her as hard!

So, yeah—Sherri has a thick skull.
That American Tourister gorilla wouldn’t stand a chance against her!
Good lighting on that bod
Thank you!
Yep, like I said: skillet’s big enough for both of them.
They just don’t make ’em like they used to.
Somehow I don’t think the pan is refundable at this point
It might be hard to convince the store to take it back now!
Lana should give Sherri a few more knocks, she might be able to straighten the pan out again.
It’s definitely worth a try!

Thank you! Yes, I hope someone kept the receipt!
