Freddie learned that with Sam as your girlfriend, you had to filter out a lot of things. For example, when she called him a "Total nub that will be living with his mom until he's thirty", she was really saying, beneath those cold words, "You're my nub, and your mom better realize that you won't be sticking with her forever while you're with me."
When she would roll her eyes during the Galaxy Wars Marathons he insisted on having with her and groan, "This chiz is so lame. How could anyone with an ounce of dignity watch this for three hours straight?" she meant, "Do you really find this movie more interesting than me? Why don't you and I do something without intergalactic wars raging on?"
To the blind observer, Freddie knew that Sam came off as an abrasive, hard-headed chick that wanted things her way and her way only, but he knew better.
Behind every "Get out of my way," there was a "Please".
Somewhere within each demand for food there was a "Thank you".
Underneath every look of disgust was a girlish giggle trying to escape.
And of course, each and every "I hate you" was just Sam Puckett's special way of saying "I love you".
