Yeah Archie could possibly know about the boys relationship. That very well could be his way of encouraging Greg to come clean. Archie has had quite a few instances which made me wonder if he knew something. Like when (can't remember ep) Nick told him to get a girlfriend and he said "You first!" and he was there for the "I thought we had a relationship" scene so he had to have overheard that conversation.
That scene from "Random Acts of Violence" is one of the best Nick/Greg moments ever!
GREG: "But that's not what I wanted to talk about."
NICK: "What, then?"
(
GREG motions for Nick to come into his lab. Amused,
NICK, steps forward)
GREG: "Look, I thought we had a relationship. What are you doing taking Archie into the field instead of me?"
Notice that Greg says "relationship", not "friendship". "Relationship" is much more ambiguous and interesting...
After watching scenes like Nick's reaction to Greg's beating in "Fannysmakin", the flirting over the latex liquid (or the lube :devil
, the boytouching in "Who Shot Sherlock", all their scenes together in "A La Cart" and "Bull" and many others.... I can't help but think that if Nick/Greg were a het couple, they'd be canon by now....
Jealous Greg is so cute...
Wojo, you're right; Archie overheard the "we had a relationship" conversation:
The end of this scene is priceless:
NICK (to
ARCHIE): "You got to get a girlfriend"
(
ARCHIE turns around to look at
NICK)
ARCHIE: "You first"
:guffaw: :guffaw: :guffaw: Archie knows! And probably, all the lab rats know about the boys too: Hodges (how could he not know?), Wendy, Mandy, Bobby....The boys are TOO obvious, lol.
