| The Position Paper |
| -The spit-fire thing works for them. How many people see Ainsley and Sam together because of the fact that they can just debate things...Think Mallory making an appointment and arguing with Sam for an hour and a half over a position paper that wasn't even really his position in 1.18. - The asking of Sam to the opera. And, IMO, the setting of the "No-Sex" plan could've also been to remind HERSELF, suggesting that she really DOES have feelings for him and wanted to be sure she didn't act too prematurely. - Abby said that Mal "has an itch for Sam Seaborn"...and if she didn't really, I don't think she would've been so adamant about it. Follow that with... - The kiss! Okay, so it was for Sam defending her father, who she cares very deeply about...But still! - Then there's the more minor things. Like the way she looks at him when she says "...You stood there an ARGUED with me..." and the little grin Sam gets when she asks him to the opera and he replies "You're asking me out on a date..." - "Don't worry about it tonight"? Now, think about it. If you had seen the man you thought you were dating pictured hugging a known call girl, and he'd never called you since it happened - not once - wouldn't you be so completely pissed you wouldn't want to talk to him? And yeah, she agreed she was pissed. But by the fact that she didn't start yelling and arguing with him in typical Mallory fasion, we should see something there... - She's not Republican. And I realize that seems like an obvious thing, but I'm just going along the lines that 1) it'd look like scandalous thing if Sam dated a Republican, and 2) Sam enjoys talking about Ainsley being an idiot. - One last Anti-Ainsley thing, a line Sam said to her. "Just remember that you're a blonde, Republican girl, and that nobody likes you." |
