I guess my view is that Dan expects people to just figure out that Freddie already likes Sam based on his reactions in crucial moments in both iKiss and iTTK. It's just that he's buried those feelings because of their crazy relationship, and he's only willing to act on those feelings and acknowledge that they are actually there AFTER Sam comes clean about what's really going on from her side. Once she does, he decides to make his move.
