Veronica: Here comes Paulo with some very questionable presents!

Is it me or has Rachel softened up a lot recently? I mean I know she’s got a thing for Paulo, but most of her earlier appearances had her be quite brash and mischievous, she seems to be growing out of that a bit.

Also yessh Paulo, I mean Rachel might appreciate it, or see this as Paulo trying to get her drunk and take advantage of her (I’m not sure if she’d be into that but uh) - it’s still a bit of a crass gift, no thought really went into it the way Mike’s was (gosh if this is how Mike picks for friends, I wonder what shopping for Sandy is like?)

Errr. Something tells me this won’t end well.
Could it be Paulo how Paulo looks real nervous handling that wine, awkwardly presenting it to Rachel?
Could it be how Rachel seems surprised, but not in a very good way, to see that Paulo brought her alcohol for her birthday?
Could it be that by presenting her the wine and saying «Happy birthday!», Paulo gives the appearance of thinking that Rachel is the type of person who indulges in alcohol?
Could it be that Rachel catches on to this and takes it badly?
Could it be that Paulo’s dad is bound to notice the missing bottles sooner or later?
Or could it be that the bottle of liquor seems to have magically appeared in his hand?
Hmmm…

Ohahahahha Isn’t that the same shirt he wore to their first date?! http://www.bittersweetcandybowl.com/c55/p16.html Nostalgia… (mixed with a bit of symbolism and irony perhaps?)
