Seriously, never let anybody convince you that their love for you drives them to continue a romantic pursuit you've asked them to stop. It's gross. It's not true. People who don't know the difference between the volume at which they express their feelings to you and the genuineness of those feelings ("How can you doubt my love for you when I AM YELLING?") are very, very dangerous to your well-being, and when asking somebody to leave you alone just makes him shout at you louder, that's not love. What Danny is doing here is more like bullying than anything else. He wants what he wants, and he doesn't really care what she says she wants. Knowing he's hurting her doesn't make him want to stop what he's doing, and that's not love either. I just don't even know what to say about the wrongness of this whole plot, and it's especially sad that it's tacked onto the end of an episode that has, in some ways, some moments of promise. Danny and Jordan were both, in this episode, so unlikable and unpleasant that I really don't give a rip what happens to either one of them. Without them, and without the straw Chenoweth stuff, and without political setups quite so garishly one-sided, I'd enjoy some of the rest of the show, but this?
