Also, the 'I went to England. It rained.''It tends to do that' exchange is so spot on tone wise for those awkward small talk conversations you make with someone you just met but know you're going to get along with, so the joke just happens. It's a very smooth exchange, despite the fact they're just getting to know each other there. I just love that.
I was a little torn with this whether, painful-flashbacks-wise, I should go the "they were having secret office sexytimes!" route or just stick with the interpretation that what we saw on the show was the extent of the intimacy that existed between them, and while I'm not ever gonna hate on secret office sexytimes (that would just be wrong), I think it somehow makes it so much more poignant to imagine that they kind of just had all these little tiny unimportant typical between-coworkers moments, but also had a chemistry that somehow made it so much fuller than that. I think this is the part where I'm supposed to shed some tears over the LAMENTABLE DEMISE of the walking-pretty-next-to-each-other. Sigh and woe!
