Doh! I was so fixated on him spitting out the words, that I blew right
past that - which is why I talk about these things.
The scene was just so awkward, though, I couldn't concentrate. It was the
sort of thing where the sheer awkwardness just exudes out of the
television, and I could barely stand it. [The opposite of this, however,
would be the Pilot episode to "Gilmore Girls", which somehow handles the
boy-meets-girl-and-both-fall-in-love shtick without that pervasive awkward
feeling at all.]
