...it's not wrong.
I don't know about "OK", but it's not "wrong".
...and yes, I'm certain Elliot specifically set out to upset Padma. :roll:

I get the feeling that even in that instance, some people would still find a way to blame Elliot for...something.

--- End quote ---
I love the mental image I'm getting from that. Also, if a guy did that for me, I'd totally be all over him :laugh:
snubnose:
Uh-hu.
I agree about the "calling in sick" part being stupid, and I agree that the phonecall was not a good way either.
But we already know Elliot is not someone of brilliant social skills, so both things arent so unsurprising.
raoullefere:
A few observations:
1. Marten looks like he's making this way more his fault than it is. For all we know, Elliot might've screwed himself up to do this anyway, especially after getting some alcocourage going earlier on. Too bad the bartender didn't think of it first, then we could all jump on Wil's bony ass instead. I'm also surprised somebody hasn't brought up Gildor Inglorion, but that's just as well, or maybe I missed it.
2. Padma's not responsible for knowing someone's got a yen for her. On the other hand, she could stand to be a little less oblivious to what's going on around her. Her grandmother may owe Elliot for a few more years of existence.
3. It's nice of her in a way, but Padma's being rather silly and self-important when she thinks she has to 'deal with' Elliot's unrequited love. She already has: she told him how she honestly feels. Anything else is pretty much a job for the big guy himself. (Yes, I mean Elliot.) She's only a punching bag if she hangs herself by the ceiling to do the job.
4. As far as Elliot's behavior goes, behold the difference between a crush and True Love. And so sorry, but he probably needed to do this, so maybe he won't sit on his hands the next time. So to speak.
5. Steve doesn't get told to shut up nearly enough. Or maybe he does, and we just don't get to hear Cosette do it. I enjoyed that part, anyway.

Uh.
So whats the difference between a crush and true love, and which of these two is Elliots relation to Padma ?
