Seriously... can we discuss, with the zeal that one would discuss a soap-opera, the apparent "spark" between Tom and Megan that was presented this week.

I mean come on!!!!!!

I know it's a bit of "drama" but for some reason I think this is the "juiciest" potential relationship yet. I dunno why but it just intrigues me.

When you think about it, Megan's kinda hot (I mean not vision-girl Cassie hot but still hot). Tom wouldn't be doing too bad there... but I'm sure others disagree smile.gif.

I completely disagree. I haven't seen anything before tonight that seemed anything like a spark! There's been compassion (around Alana's disappearance, and Megan's ill father) but I haven't seen anything at all that felt or looked like a romantic thing. Then Diana mentions something to Tom and suddenly.... Bah!

But I can have blinders on coz I don't like Megan.

OK, one vote for Megan being hot.

Rockingmule,

Can you give examples to those of us who haven't noticed. I'm interesting in seeing what you're talking about because I really haven't noticed anything until Diana said something.

I really can't, Olandir. There was just something in the way they looked at each other from the moment they met. Am I the only one who likes Megan? Maybe I was seeing something more, because I wasn't determined to see her as evil, stupid, marked, or blonde?

I personally never had anything against Megan, and I still didn't see it smile.gif

Two votes... you forgot mine...

I consider Megan's hotness to be less than Cassies but still a definite high-score on the hot-o-meter

I just can't define it, Olandir, but the first time Megan and Tom met, he smiled at her a little and my son and me just laughed and said they like each other. It will be interesting to see where it goes.

LOL. I was watching "Rock of Love" on VH1 and almost missed Megan rubbing (or caressing) Tom's back.
She's using her authority to sexually harass the man mad.gif If he turns her down, she could fire him.
If he bends to her will, she could still fire him if he fails to please her. The poor man is between a rock and a hard place. (I'm kidding)

LOL! yeah, and more of the same tasks from his superior. He'll be worn out.
Me thinks Megan Doyle is more than she appears to be.

Is something there? I gotta be honest here, I just don't give a flip. I feel like this is being forced. Are the diehard 4400 fans so upset by Tom not having a girlfriend for a season? He didn't have a girlfriend season 1 and it didn't feel like anything was missing. I mean he's kinda busy, right? I still miss Jarvis. She was a bad-ass.

I second that opinion, scifilaker. Unfortunately, it seems that Tom has become the James Bond of 4400. rolleyes.gif It doesn't matter which season, Tom always seems to have either a love-interest or wife. Still, I don't see any problem with that, it's just so predictable. On a positive note though, if Tom and Meghan's love do develop, then the scriptwriters should bring in that Psychologist/stress-relieving woman and bring back Alana. Then the three would all fight for Tom while he's putting all of effort on getting Kyle back. Wouldn't that be a funny scene?

I do not know about Tom but Meghan has been making a play for Tom on day one. It is not what she says but how she saying things that gave me this impression.

LOL well a sexual harrassment storyline could be interesting, but I'd rather see Tom's storyline go in other directions. *ahem*

Agree on all points. He definitely doesn't need a love interest right now, his storyline is jammed pack. I really have no problem with him having a GF if it made sense and wasn't forced.

And yeah, Nina was bad-ass!

I have seen and I haven't seen the spark.

The first ep. in the season when tey meet - perhaps yes they were checking each other out.
Perhaps yes - when Meghan was down because of her father and they had a little wine talk - perhaps yes they connected a little.
And I was actually kind of waiting for some kind of romance between them.

But then we had last weeks episode - and I totally changed my mind.

She did something really bad to Tom - by passing on his mail.
She was the reason why he got marked. Megahan was the reason - no other.

And I thought that after that Tom would resent her. That was the impression that I got last week.
But this week - well she was like all over him - and they were about to kiss when Marco walked in.
I think that it is kind of fishy - her being the reason for him being marked and then being all over him.

So really this is what I think is going on.
I think that Meghan is marked - and now Tom is too.
And I think that eventhough he is on standby - the mark is starting to develope - and he can't focus his mind and because of this Meghan is able to manipulate him - slowly ofcourse - but as part of a bigger picture.
So by making him fall in love with her - he will be even more vulnerable - and when time has come - he can become a marked in a snap.

But ofcourse someone will come along and save Tom from becomming a bad marked - and when I think about it - it makes sense for the story line if Meghan dies.
If she is out of the picture - perhaps Tom will fight the Marked developement and seek the help he needs to become clean again ( a P shot perhaps - who knows)

Yes, I thouht so too. I wonder if Megan has another agenda though and any relationship with Tom would bring her over to the right side? Also, does it look like she dies in the next episode? Wouldn't that just be Tom's luck!
zippylittlerat
Yeah, but poor Tom had had one crap-shoot after another. I'd make a list, but my hand might cramp. I say give him a gal! I may not have sensed immediate sparks, but I definately felt some sort of chemistry (are those the same thing? Cause that might explain why I'm oblivious to romance).
oceanheart
ok you all i'm starting to put it together who the GUYS on these threads are LOLOLO. That's ok you can't help yourselves laugh.gif , just kidding.I don't think there was a spark when they first met, but then again who knew he was having thoughts about Diana? thx April. You GUYS..... I don't know.... But seriously I think her putting her hand on him was kinda weird,expecially right there in the office. It just doesn't seem like it would go down like that not during business hours anyway biggrin.gif I wouldn't think Tom would trust her after last week "The Marked" since it was her that got him there. So either the writers were pressed for time or it has something to do with, like someone else said, maybe she's marked too. And really it's a matter of taste cause i don't think she's really all that hot. and also why does he need to have a love interest?? Oceanheart cool.gif peaceout
CraigS
My opinion: I think Tom and Diana will eventually get together, instead of Megan. I could see Diana not liking Megan because of this.

Apparently this is why i never get a man. I don't see it. I didn't see chemisty between Tom and Alana, Diana and Marco, Diana and Ben, Shawn and Isabelle----
I did see it between Richard and Lily.

I see more chemistry between Tom and Diana than anyone one else.

Hey olandir smile.gif my thought is sometimes thats what "girls" do to test the waters. Mention an apparent interest, although i don't think that's the case here. I just don't see Megan and Tom but maybe that's just cause i don't trust her. That said, he is a guy, and probably is lonley. I see him and Di but then that would put a weird deal on their working together. Oceanheart cool.gif peaceout

I'm in rare, im tired so my "filters" are off mode. LOL I just finished my 7th day of working in a row and have 4 more to go before day off--so I'm saying what comes to mind.

ooh...I had a ten day in a row work schedule. I had to keep singing "There's a light at the end of this tunnel" to keep me going. At least you're almost there! smile.gif

Go for it Phanta! My splurge was junkfood today. Mmm.

Ya know, when Diana first brought up Meghan, I was hoping it would be something along the lines of, "Does she act weird to you?" But I like Meghan, so I'm content.

I liked the fact that Tom said there are only 2 reasons a woman invites a man to dinner, attraction or pitty. (I think there is a third or fourth) I wonder what she would have said if he said i'm guess the 1st--attraction --LETS GET IT ON---
I like that he didn't notice that Megan has it for him--but then I didn't notice.

LOL I doubt it. She didn't beat him to death when he told the truth when April asked if he ever had sexual fantasy's about her. Seriously, if he was my partner--I'd get no work done. I be there just drooling all over him. He could get me fired for sexual harrassment for sure.

He could not have said that to me with a bed in the room--April or no--I'd have had him on that bed in 30 seconds or less. I'm betting on less. Joel is just to HOT.

I wonder if the actors ever read these? I think Joel's already starting the process for a restraining order...TOTALLY just kidding Phanta! biggrin.gif

What's funny is... remember in the beginning... Tom and Diana were partnered up... neither one liking or trusting the other.

Now look at them... "As long as Diana is here, she's my partner." You gotta love their loyalty to one another.

A big thanks for Marco!!!

Thank you Marco that you came in the office an "prevented" the KISS between Blondy and Tom.
Puhh... I was scared and hoped: "Please, don't kiss her!"

Ok, remember at the last ebisode "Till we have built Jerusalem"( by the way a wonderful episode, one of the best biggrin.gif ) First Tom was by Diana for a dinner *swarm* Diana's question to Tom: " What do you think about Meghan?" Yeah, she remark Meghan is interested at Tom! (he was shocked. I've seen this)
Diana had a big smile on her face as she ask the question. I think she is a little bit jealous of Meghan^^

In any case there will be something

Spoiler:
Tom and Meghan will sleep with one another!!


Bad Blondy! dry.gif

I don't like anything about her. I don't think she is smart enough for her job. She is not right for Tom. And for the record, I didn't like Alana either. I'd like to see Tom and Diana together. They have chemistry together.
