For most rational people, sure.
For people who seem to be awkward and insecure, not necessarily.

--- Quote from: Cornan on 14 Sep 2011, 15:38 ---I'm a little confused by Elliot's reaction.
If I was him I'd read that as Marten being pushed into the friend zone since Padma invited Elliot along in the next breath after she invited Marten. Wouldn't this be a good sign? If it was supposed to be a romantic trip it'd be "Hey, Elliot, I'm taking Marten and Momo up the mountain tomorrow. Can you cover my shift?" or something like that. Since he was invited wouldn't this be a good thing for Elliot and signal that Marten isn't necessarily a rival (at least not in Padma's eyes)?

It's pretty simple, I think -- Elliot isn't happy about the potential competition. Padma's comment about stretching can't possibly have helped
For what it's worth, if Elliot is a Nice Guy(tm), Marten isn't the only one in for trouble.
Heliphyneau:
Man, Marten and Elliot just need to have a long talk -- after a long bout of awkwardness, of course. Marten could pretty much tell Elliot "Dude, quietly waiting on the sidelines doesn't work. You're gonna have to tell her." Considering the amount of havoc Sam is likely to create on this hike, however, the group of them will be lucky to catch their breaths, let alone talk. I'm kind of wondering what Marigold's reaction will be to Momo developing a social life. If she starts pouting about it, maybe Momo will make her come with them on the hike. I do hope that Momo won't let Sam keep pushing her around so much -- politeness only goes so far, and we've seen Momo stand up for herself.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

I don't believe it was explicitly stated, but Elliot's look of mortification when Padma called Steve cute (1865) is a pretty good tip off. Correct me if I'm wrong though! =]
Anyway, I don't think Padma is quite as oblivious to Elliot as she puts on--she just may not agree with dating co-workers. Or she really is that naive, haha.
