So, did anyone else think that Carol and Phil were play-acting for the benefit of everyone else in the street?
I didn't buy that they were actually having sex. Sure, Phil was topless and Carol also appeared to be topless, but their vocalisation appeared to be WAY over the top and ... well, there didn't appear to be the right ... rhythmic motion going on.
And with Phil's appreciation for Carol's scarf and different kitten nails, although they're somewhat stereotypical attributes, I have to wonder whether he is gay, felt that he could trust Carol with the truth and asked her to pretend to enter into a relationship with him because the attention from all of the other girls was making him uncomfortable. That doesn't quite explain why they needed to be together in bed for their "performance", unless they were trying to cast shadows on Carol's bedroom window/curtains.
I don't know. All of the characters are behaving pretty poorly at the moment. Even Phil seemed to be incredibly rude in not learning Todd's name. There are only six other people on the planet and he can't learn all of their names? And the duo of ladies were very straight-foward when approaching Tandy for sex, so why have they been so reticent with Phil? Melissa was also behaving a little oddly with Todd, although to be fair, Todd has been behaving extremely poorly due to his unsubstantiated jealousy.
