Hunter was unable to hide his shock when he saw Liz and Max return… both smiling.
"I can't believe that they are holding hands…", Hunter said under his breath.
Sabrina looked at him while wondering, why is he overreacting? "Of course, they will hold hands. Couples do that."
Hunter wanted to tell Sabrina that those two are NOT a couple. But then he would expose himself and this whole lunch scheme. He needs to force Max into a corner and make him admit that he is lying.
Max and Hunter are often playing tricks on each other, while claiming supremacy in setting each other up, and it's no fun if Hunter just reveals what is going on.
But… no matter how he looks at those two, they look like a couple. Hunter could not believe his eyes. A couple? What couple? Liz almost hated Max until few minutes ago… she called him unpleasant! Is it possible that Max made Liz fall for him within these few minutes? That must be some sort of a record!
