I just think there's too much going against Creddie at this point.

Carly's complete (and continuing and never-ending) lack of interest in Freddie combined with Sam''s obvious distress at the whole idea tells me Dan isn't going to finish in that direction.

He's keeping what's going on inside Freddie's head a mystery, and when that finally gets resolved, you don't resolve it in the direction where one of the main characters is unhappy. We've said it a thousand times, but nothing's changed since we first said it.

When a writer sets up characters who have certain personalities and react to certain situations in certain ways, it can tell you a lot.

Sam has been set up as the girl who is an insecure, romantic hard-luck who hides her feellings and doesn't get a lot of dates or boyfriends. It was a really big deal for her to finally move on Freddie, and she's obviously still upset with the idea that Freddie might be looking in Carly's direction again. It bothers her, and Dan wants you to notice that it does.

What you absolutely DON'T do (if youre a head writer) is to have the main male character reject the hard-luck girl and do a last-episode hook-up with the main character/popular girl instead - who has no trouble getting dates even if the relationships don't last.

He's just not going to do that.
