@Akirelee: Quite the opposite actually. The thing is, the job situation isn't even where the parallels between Josh/Mindy and Sam/Freddie end. There are quite a few parallels between them. Literally, there is one scene that's pretty much the same conversation taken from Josh and Mindy and reworded to work a little better for Sam & Freddie.

Basically, Dan has done a lot of the same things that he did with Josh and Mindy with Sam and Freddie, so the idea that he wouldn't do the same thing twice in terms of outcome isn't such a believable argument. (Besides, if he ends in creddie or he ends in seddie, both would be him doing the same general storyline twice, either by pulling from previous long time admirer/bff relationships like Zoey and Chase or love/hate relationships like Josh and Mindy or Logan and Quinn. The only original idea would be leaving everyone single, which I don't put past him at all.)

The fact that Dan did an episode with another ex-couple where the situation played out very very similarly to Sam/Freddie's in iPear Store and in the end we learned the real motivation behind said couple's behavior was related to their feelings for each other at least shows that Dan has thought of such a logic. That shows that it wouldn't be far off at all for Dan to be thinking along the same lines here. We may not have gotten the "clearing of the air" (due to the episode being so early in the final season, compared to Josh and Mindy having their "moment" 2 episodes or so before the finale), but it's clear Dan has played out this scenario before with the expressed explanation that their feelings for each other were at the root of their behavior. The impilcations are there.
