I get the sense that Mal has bought into the new role as boyfriend a little more than Shelly has bought into her new role as girlfriend.
Mal has gone from being a snivelly little shark to a simpering boy pal awfully quick. It’s almost as if he wanted that life and was waiting for it to show up.
I wonder how many of us fall into that sphere- creating our own little self-fulfilling prophesies and then being impressed that the universe finally obliged.
Shelly, on the other hand, is just doing the same dang thing she was doing at Sportsmart- jockeying for power under everyone’s radar. And she’s also hanging with Mal. That’s probably what she always felt the universe would provide.
