I like the Mac/Peyton relationship because they have believeable chemistry, they act like a real adult couple in love. I don't think Peyton was wrong for tricking Mac, due to his workaholic personality the only other way she could've gotten him to take time off would've been bashing him on the head and lugging his unconcious body onto the plane.
In your opinion they have believeable chemistry. And that isn't to be snide or snotty. It is your opinion and while you are entitled to think that and many others agree, I think just the opposite. I don't think they have chemistry together. I find their interactions to be awkward and they make me cringe. However, that is my opinion and I know not everyone shares that.
If bashing him on the head and lugging his unconscious body onto the plane is the only other way to get him to take time off, maybe he really doesn't want to take time off and go on vacation. She shouldn't force him to. He has to make that choice and if it bothers her so much that he won't go with her then she has to choose what she wants to do with the relationship. They aren't married and its just a vaction -- if he doesn't want to go he doesn't have to go just because she wants him to. Relationships require compromises so if this were really important to her and he really cared for her then he might agree to go -- but, again it needs to be his choice.
Also, how in the world did she know his accrued vacation and time off? Not just anyone can get a look a personnel jacket.
That did seem slightly stalkerish. If she wants to know that kind of information, it should come from Mac.
- Will Peyton's cheek implants explode on the Trans-atlantic flight?
Does she really have cheek implants? Frankly I have always thought she sort of looked like she has had a lot of plastic surgery, but assumed that she hadn't give that she is fairly young.
One poster above asked why everyone cares/dislikes/moans/groans/etc about Mac and Horatio having romantic relationships. I'm not too sure of the overall agebase of any fandom, but over the years I've come to realize that I don't care for the romance simply because invariably the writers just manage to screw it up. Keeping the overt romance off the screen simply allows *all* fans of different 'ships interpret what they see to their way of thinking within their 'ship. And there's absolutely no harm in that to me. It evens the playing field and allows all 'ships to participate equally. Unless the show is a soap, I feel romance should take the back seat and be actions interpreted by the actors on screen...not force-fed manually time after time after time.
I very much agree with this. On a side note -- Horatio just creeps me out so I truly prefer to never ever think of him in a relationship with anyone -- woman or man.
