Totally agree, though Corazon Latino would have satisfied me. But to be fair, Esclavo De Sus Besos (from the dream sequence) is a mighty fine song.

Like DanielKurland said upthread, Dan's dressing down of Dana was DEAD ON. (Spoiler alert for what he said in a later episode) "I know what you want, and all I've seen you do is hide behind this psychotic behavior all dressed up as cute. He wanted you, and he told you every possible way he could. You've just been

MissTelling, six months as a time period wasn't crazy, what's crazy was Dana expecting him to date other people and not fall in love with *any* of them.

I imagine the cheesy sexual dialogue is written with a purpose — to shock, to hurt, to be cutting, to show scorn etc. No doubt it's cheesy, but it's an additional way for the characters to show their emotions. If the lines weren't so groan-worthy, I'd actually approve.

- Sarah picks Hank because Hank *needs* her more than Mark does. Also, she's always been uncomfortable with Mark being so much younger.

I didn't realize Sam wasn't a princess until *you* pointed it out.

Her upper arms look fine to me, judging from this photo taken a month ago at the Emmy's.
