It almost felt to me like they were going to make that storyline bigger than what it ended up being and sort of abandoned it. I wasn’t a fan of it at all (even though it was better than the nightmare of that tramp Kathy going after Jim) but I felt they introduced it very clearly as a possible story arch and then decided they didn’t like it after all and scrapped it. I think they should’ve had some sort of scene where he either confessed his feelings to Pam or Brian said something to Jim, etc.
