Finally George has an opportunity to talk to Wade and asks him if it’s okay if he asks Tansy out on a date and Wade says he’ll think about it.

He tells George that he feels Tansy is a placeholder until he can get Zoe and just when he’s about to tell him about him and Zoe they get interrupted. George decides to call Tansy anyways and tells Wade that he doesn’t see her as a placeholder, then tells Wade that if he’s worried that Zoe sees him as a placeholder that he should talk to her about it.  Wade is surprised to hear that George knows about him and Zoe, and George says that he’s known for a while.
