You only picked one of the points I made regarding why Sam was able to do what he did. Alcohol. Ignoring factors like she has been on edge for so long, constantly been teased, her body must be longing for such pleasurable intimate touches. It is not a coincidence that she hardly is able to get any relief on any route. L&P is doing this intentionally so it plays a factor. Plus Sophia was able to stay to keep her control until she actually locked lips. A kiss is supposed to feel good, melt you down. And while in the moment she gave in. If you think that a kiss does not have any effect and one can easily just stop it then you have the choice of stopping it. Personally I believe it does have a strong effect.I don't quite agree with you there. At most that Sam has once again pulled his alcohol trump card on her. And that's getting a bit trite and ridiculous if he keeps getting her around like that. For me, it's about the short time that Sam was able to go so far with Sophia. At the last date, still, a bit of dreaming and gushing, just barely showing the areola. Again with the influence of alcohol. And now, a few days later, she gets involved in such fireworks of sexual acts? Come on! Even with a little alcohol, she should still be able to think a little clearer. She must expect Liam or her children to suddenly appear. She can also be watched by Sam's parents. The jacuzzi is free-standing, with no privacy screen.
But clear. When you say ... Sophia was so intoxicated by his come-on because she's no longer in control of her senses from a glass of champagne... then, yes, you can't take her seriously anymore. With Aiden, unfortunately, alcohol was also involved in the 3rd task. I hope L&P finally lets go of the alcohol. Sophia should finally think clearly like with Dylan and make her reasonable decisions with all her Li.
You are using the same logic that I hate most. That one character did this much last time but was able to achieve this much the next time. The situation matters to me. There has been enough build-up on the Sam route and nothing short of a kiss was ever going to be accepted. The rest of the things that happen as I said weren't part of what Sophia wanted.
Alcohol was there in the Aiden event too. But there not a single dialogue emphasizes that what is happening is happening because of alcohol. In the Sam event there is clear Statement that Alcohol is playing a factor. They are two different things.
Liam or anyone couldn't just stand right infront of Sophia out of nowhere. No matter who enters the house. He or she will have to turn on the lights first, which is an immediate indicator which was also used. Neil and Amber weren't home either I believe. And even if they make an appearance how many parents to you know who peep of over high walls of their neighborhood to look for their son without even calling out his name first to check if he is nearby.
I too would wish alcohol is reduced as a factor and only comes into play for scenes where it actually makes sense. Not for plot convenience.
