I disagree only because of the fact that they are now clearly if not living together, then at least cozy enough so it's not just shady rendez-vous, but a real relationship.
That's not a very good reason to disagree, if you consider the nature of my argument
Also, his reaction said more, to me, that he was embarassed she'd said it in public. If they weren't together or at least in the beginnings of dating, I can't see her having the balls to say that in front of someone else.
Okay, I don't know about anyone else, but whether they were dating or married or were guest starring with Cath and Sofia on the next season of Big Love, his look did
not look look like one of 'embarrassment' to me. You couldn't pay me to buy
that.
I mean, look at it:
And again - part of the reason she says it is because the whole episode is about age, and by that time Grissom has been essentially told he's a dinosaur by Greg, and that kind of thing would be picked up more easily by someone who knows him better and is close to him.
I agree
But yeah - unfortunately there was just too much familiarity. Even the Caprice scene can be interpreted as "Oh God, someone who doesn't even know us picked up on it". Caprice was technically wrong, but the fact that they liked each other still stood as something he figured out.
See, now it just feels like you're trying to make it fit again. I still maintain something happened inbetween the Caprice scene and the eyesex scene, and not before.
Even the mouth to mouth scene just felt too flirtatious for Grissom at that point.
Because yes, they were closer and more comfortable than they had ever been, and they were getting closer to the point where they would be together, but I still don't buy that in that moment, they honestly were yet (or had intended to be by the writers and actors when it was made, if you want to be all technical about what the timeline's supposed to be like
now). Sara's reaction didn't read like "I can't believe he said that at work" or anything one's partner would think/feel if they said that to them. It was more "Did he just..? No, don't read anything into it. I can't be sucked in by Mr NeverGonnaDoAnything."

Uhuh, lots and lots of... cookies. That's it
You kids and your euphemisms. There was an ad on the radio that referred to them as 'oranges' once. But to be fair, that word is more similar to the actual one than 'cookies'...
I think the ambiguity over when the Geeks got together is only natural, since they a) had to keep it ambiguous so that the final scene would be at least a partial surprise and b) up until they were filming ToYD, I don't think they'd definitively decided they were taking the plunge with the couple, or when they were going to do it. I think they knew they would, really, but probably not the when of it, if you know what I mean.
'S what I'm sayin'. Thanks, Fogs.
On another note, does anyone thing Al might know about Grissom and Sara being together? I can see him as the type to know all, and just not say anything - even to them - until it's told to him, and then he can be all "It took you long enough to tell me"
