Todd enters the lobby of his building. Before he can get on the elevator, Sam calls him over to her. She's hiding in the foliage of a fake tree. She's there to tell him that she's sick of danger and she wants to be the one he's with. Which means he has to choose between her and Chloe. He starts to remind her that he already was going to break up with Chloe until she told him not to, but she shuts him up again by squeezing his lips together. Sam: "Shhhh. We talk to much." Todd, through pressed lips: "You." And then Sam kisses him. And then she tells him he'd better not try to keep her from working. He gets on the elevator to go upstairs, but she holds the door for one more kiss.
Sam's V.O. tells us that the most exciting time about the whole hot plate thing is that moment right before you touch the plate. Because afterwards, you're just a moron with a burnt finger. Sam picks up her umbrella and heads outside. Frank is there (natch). She tells him that Todd is going to be her boyfriend. Frank: "I guess the man's never heard the phrase, 'Fool me twice, shame on me.'" Sam thinks Frank is just a stitch. Sam's V.O. tells us that dinner is a lot more fun if your finger's not a throbbing mass of pain. So don't touch the hot plate.
There were some good one-liners in this episode, but overall it left me unimpressed. Let's hope the season finale next week is better.
