Simone is so good! I also love Chidi/Eleanor but I love how well these episodes emphasized that there are all these different kind of close relationships and they're all important - romance is a thing but not THE thing, Chidi and Eleanor don't make each other better because they're destined to be in love but because they complement each other regardless.

I also hold out hope that this will be the Eleanor/Tahani season -- although Michael's frustration of thwarted OTP was hilarious, and I look forward to someone eventually explaining to him about multishipping.
