See, i am definitely not going to use your judgement when it comes to development on Dylan Sophia route. The last two Dylan events on Day 18 and 19 have been only about building up and development of a more intimate relationship between Dylan And Sophia.
Be it dressing up together allowing a more intimate relationship or Dylan preparing breakfast for his mom in bed or a progression in Sophia's feelings for Dylan in the Jogging event. There has only been buildup on Dylan's route from after the bikini show for a big scene to happen in this route.
The same was the case for Sam. Sam has no events showing any huge progression before the Jaccuzi scene. The only thing he was able to achieve was seeing her areolas in Day 16 that too with Alcohol. So Sam's entire route from the beginning till now is only a build up with nothing big happening until the Jaccuzi scene.
A thing you can't ignore is that Dylan was leading the hetero route until the end of Day 18 for the entire game. Day 19 he falls back with a relationship development based event, only for Day 20 to have 2 events back to back ( just like Sam got last day ). Also Last time Dylan got events back to back was During Day 17 which had the massage in the bathtub, shopping mall breasts show and the bikini show. He once again has them on Day 20 and also on Day 21.
But keeping all this talk aside, My question to you was that will you still believe in your fantasy that Dylan's event will have nothing hot and Sam's route will always be ahead even if L&P told you that the evening Dylan event surpasses all events of Sam's route.
It looks like my assumption that Sophia would not rush to Sam with flying colors was correct. It's no surprise that she wants to talk to Sam. She wants to bring this relationship back to normal. She's troubled by the events and her own behavior the day before in the hot tub, and I think Sophia considers her behavior unforgivable.
Sam is going to have to work hard to convince Sophia to allow the relationship to progress. But since we already know this event is going to be "hot", Sam will be able to pull it off. I'm not making any predictions about how L&P will shape the dialogue, but the silver-tongued Sam will surely talk Sophia's brains out. But actually he should have no chance without alcohol.
I also have to agree with Sam's fans, this event will catapult Sam way ahead of Dylan in Sophia's favor. If Sophia gives herself to Sam again, becomes sexually active with him, that is not possible without Sophia having to admit to herself that she wants to (unless she is massively under the influence of alcohol). She must admit to herself that she is deliberately deceiving her husband, Liam. The game with her dreams now becomes an affair with intent. And so Sam is far ahead of Dylan in the race for this woman.
But this race doesn't really matter. Because when she meets Dylan afterwards, and spends the rest of the afternoon with him, it will be as if the meeting with Sam never happened (L&P will keep the routes nice and separate.).
I don't dare predict how the whole thing will play out, nor how far the sexual acts with Sam will go. But I do make one prediction: the events will not reconcile the Sam fans and the Sam opponents, but will further tear open the rifts.
