I mean, if we're being real, if you take that drama out of episode 4 (which I again, I don't get, the MC really blew it up) episode 4 isn't even 1/4 of the other episodes if you straight up avoid maya and jojo, so...yeah, I guess it had to happen to keep DPC from going nuts? I mean when you think about it, its a massive headache as these episodes progress, if you don't force some things, the less you force, the more variables you have to account for, so that in turn creates a bunch of different things that can happen as your relationship progresses with various girls. Its a weird thing that happened, but it was necessary I think.
