    Summary

    “So, what is it that you’re looking for that you feel like friends can't give you?” is what Herm gets after he's done with a 15-minute monologue on how he can't be friends with Robert. He sits there and gapes. An answer comes to mind, perfectly formed as a well-rehearsed graduation speech or a baby about to be born. If he were to say it, he’d self-combust on the spot, but that isn't his area of expertise; that would be something more akin to what happens when a lump of cotton candy is thrown into a tub.

    Herm goes to work, goes to therapy, and goes to (not so) great lengths to get over his workplace crush.
