Sam says that she feels like Malia wants a relationship with Kory.

I dont know about that.

I think Malia wants tofuckKory, but that might be the extent of that.

Anyway, the conversation somehow shifts from Sam blaming Malia to Malia comforting Sam.

Malia tells her girl to girl that she has no interest in Kory.

Sam then says, I know that were not in a defined relationship, so thats up for interpretation.

It is clearly not fine.

Malia tells Sam that this situationship is hard just look at what a mess its made her.

Sam confesses that she loves Kory but wont say it until theyre in a more settled place.

Where was this Malia when Hannah had a CBD pen aboard the boat?

Where was this girls-first Malia then?

Mrs. Batula-Cooke should know a thing or two about killing the cool girl.

FedEx boxes of clothes back to New York.

I tell you all of this because both Amanda and Casey warn Sam away from being the Cool Girl.

The idea of a Cool Girl is a myth.

She asks if he wants to hook up with anyone else and he says no.

Finally, she has to ask the most ninth-grade question imaginable: Are we boyfriend and girlfriend?

Kory says yes, and they smooch, and everyone is happy.

Yes, that is why the Cool Girl does not exist.

Oh, how I wish my face were that camera.

There are Cool Girls being obliterated all over this hour.

When Kory tells Sam all about this, Sam has to pull Casey aside to set that bitch straight.

(I dont know if you heard the snap after that last sentence, but it was implied.)

Sam tells Casey that shell have to let her know which of their mutual friends was calling Sam trash.

I dont know; a Cool Girl would never tell.

She crawls into bed and is like What is on the bed?

While she picks some things up to inspect them, she says, Oh no.

(Yeah, Sandoval is trash, but have youseenhis body lately?)

Schwartz wasnt the only dude threes company-ing with Casey in a bed.

She finally lets all her Cool Girl energy slide and starts making out with Brian Benni.

What is up with Casey always being in bed with two other people?

Is she only into three-ways?

Does she need to get onThrinder?

I love that she finally gave in to her feelings for Brian.

Jordan expressed something similar to Alex when they were out at the bar the last night.

Even after he friendzoned her, she still says she wants things the way they were before.

She crawls into his bed in the morning and coaxes him into a bathroom make-out.

(Seriously, drop a link!)

Again, the Cool Girl does not exist.

Jordan says the exact right thing to her: Why dont you have this conversation with him?

Instead, hes hanky-panky-ing with her and saying, Bathroom sessions are my favorite.

Meanwhile, he sneaks off to bed while Danielle and Jordan are still at it.

And you still continue to shake your ass in front of him.

That is not a Jordan problem.

That is an Alex problem, and I cant believe shes even going there.

In the morning, Danielle says she feels awful but only wants to repair her conversation with Jordan.

However, when she sits Jordan down, she says, I hate what happened last night.

The way you looked at Alex and the way you were dancing with him.

Um, again, this is not a Jordan problem!

They eventually end on a good note.

Guess well have a lot to talk about atthe reunion, hey?

We get no resolution on Danielle and Alex.

Unless Danielle crawls into Alexs (hopefully) business-class seat and tries to make something happen again.

She might make a run at lure him into the bathroom and join the mile-high club.

He might even start it.

But back in Steamboat, the snow holds traces of what was.

The woods remember everything that happened.
