So far on our soap opera, we’ve established that both Amanda and Devan like Mason. While Mason is oblivious to the fact Amanda likes him, perhaps all of us have been oblivious to something else.

Jason and Devan are getting some food at the mall. See if you can figure out what’s going on before Devan does.

3. Watch - Watch the video without reading the dialog.

Devan

Jason

Devan: What’s goin’ on?

Jason: Where’s our food? I gotta get outta here.

Devan: What are you in a big hurry for?

Jason: I kinda want to meet Amanda somewhere.

Devan: Why?

Jason: I just wanna see her, you know, hang out.

Devan: In what kind of way? What do you mean?

Jason: I don’t know…

Devan: Do you have a crush on Amanda?

Jason: Maybe.

Devan: You do, don’t you!

Jason: Eh…You wouldn’t be wrong if you said I had a crush on Amanda, I suppose.

Devan: Well, you know what Beren told me?

Jason: What?

Devan: No, I can’t tell you…

Jason: N-n-no. What did she say?

Devan: I don’t know.

Jason: You have to tell me!

Devan: She said that Amanda likes you.

Jason: No way!

Devan: Way.

Jason: She did? I thought so. I totally thought so. What did she say? Anything else?

Devan: Yeah, it’s pretty obvious. There’s definitely a love connection between the two of you.

Jason: Awesome! You think so?

Devan: I think so.

Jason: I’m totally going to head her off at the pass. She gets off work in a minute, and I’m just going to, like, grab her…

Devan: You should go for it. You should definitely go for it because she definitely likes you too.

Jason: Oh wow! Thank you so much.

Devan: You’re welcome. This is exciting.

Discussion

It doesn’t take Devan long to realize that Jason has a crush on Amanda. He’s eager to meet her and it’s pretty obvious. Devan also says she’s noticed a “love connection” between them before.

Devan almost blurts out that Beren told her that Amanda likes Jason too. Then she remembers that she wasn’t supposed to tell. But Jason pries it out of her.

He’s really excited and says he’s going to go meet Amanda right away. Devan advises him to make a move quickly.

Wow, everything sure sounds great for Jason and Amanda. Did you ever guess that they liked each other?

But wait, let’s think about this for a minute.

Where did Devan hear that Amanda likes Jason? Beren. Wasn’t Beren wrong about something like this recently? Oh yeah, she thought Marni liked Mason while, in fact, she totally didn’t.

Let’s hope, for Jason’s sake, that Beren’s not wrong again.

What do you think? Are Jason and Amanda meant to be? Will she give up on Mason and go for Jason once she finds out he likes her?

Today the whole story becomes very complex. As we know so far, both, Amanda and Devan, like Mason. But has Amanda ever admitted that she likes Jason too? I can't remember.

I guess, as Devan has also a crush on Mason, she would like to have Amanda out of her way and therefore she gives a wrong hint to Jason. Perhaps Devan hopes that Jason will start something with Amanda and Amanda will forget very soon Mason. In this case Devan could try to have Mason's attention.Tactically seen, it is not a bad idea from Devan.

TO Yammi:

The "way" means true, yes, "Way" is the opposite of "no way".

If someone asks you "You are a chef? no way", but you are a chef definitely

you can answer "way" , means: Yes , I'm a chef.

who can tell me the second question why is "you are a chef?no way"?

I think He should catch hold of the chance when he was made sure that he has had an infatuation on Amanda.

Jason wants to grab Amanda. Wow, and Devon feels jealous. Whereas, she only wants to know the connection between Jason and Amanda. I think Jason should not tell the truth like that to not to hurt Devon heart. Dontt worry Devon, u will find another guy..

most of the time We don't ended up with the person whom that we wanted to be with.i think same thing will happen to Amanda and Mason. For a long lasting relationship you should involve with the person who loves you lot rather than only you loves him/her lot.

i think jason will catch hold of the great chance. anyone should not give up halfway. we should not give up until we succeed or achieve our goal.

I don't think Amanda can give up Mason so easy, but if she what to forget Mason, maybe dating with Jason will be a good way to let Mason out of her mind.

A new love can cure the old pain.
