Ellen and Jamie would have a completely different relationship if they had attempted to date normally. I mean, imagine Jamie asking Ellen out on a date, before they had lived together - they wouldn't have connected at all.

Of course, this isn't much better.

0784-------------------------------------
(Sunday morning, INT: hallway outside JH's bedroom)

EB (knocking): Hey, Jamie?
EB: Jamie? I'm sorry, I know it's super early but I couldn't sleep, I'm guessing you couldn't either.
--------------
EB: Look, I... I think we've been... I've been just uncertain about things.
EB: But hey, I've got a good reason. We have a great relationship as roommates, I really don't want to chance losing that. And I have to wonder if we're just... if this is all just Stockholm Syndrome for each other. Maybe we're building something up in our heads that... that just isn't really there.
--------------
EB: I mean, we haven't even kissed yet, right? What sort of fucking relationship is that? What the hell is wrong with us? I don't know if Max or Lily got into my head or... or what.
EB: And... I think... I think maybe we should go on a date, y'know? Dinner and a goddamn movie, like normal people. A normal date, ending with a normal kiss. Just one, no tongue, and we'll see how that feels.
EB: If you're okay with it.
EB: ... Jamie?
--------------
EB (looking in at an empty room): Orrrrr you could get up even earlier than I did and just not be here at all because you're a weirdass stealthy mystery man.
EB: God damn it.
