Anyone else think that the Jaime episode was a fix? *possible spoiler*


*spoiler alert*

Fair enough in all the other episodes before this one it was pretty credulous that they were just friends. But the Jaime episode was just ridiculously contrived: It was so blindingly obvious to me that even before the show started these two were more than just... 'friends'. Just check out the give-away levels of confidence and rapport between them on their supposed 'first date" - yeah right. C'mon Lousie, you're a smart chic - couldn't you see through their cunning plan, to get on the show and get the vip treatment for several days, on the pretence that they were not romantically involved before the show started? You must have suspected more than just innocent friendship, when you watched them meet for dinner like a couple of ol' timers!? After all when he confidently proclaims "I knew it was you!", the subtext of 'I knew it would be my girlfriend showing up, given that we planned it that way, and expecting MTV to lay on everything else plus a new gf was asking too much' - even for either of these smart ones. Anyone else disagree, I beg you to watch absolutely any other episode before this one and you can tell at all times, that they were indeed just friends. But this one just had fix written all over it. By comparing the Jaime episode to any other in the series when they meet for dinner, you'll see the difference is chalk and cheese in their rapport. 'Duck Buddies' at best - but no way could anyone seriously even suggest that these two were only friends, before filming commenced.
