"of course he said that, he's not gonna admit they took a plotline from fan demands." Because you were in the writers' room? You didn't like it, fine. But you have ZERO evidence of this assertion. It's damned if they do, damned if they don't. If they say they took it from fan demands, you say "I knew it." But if they say they didn't, you say they are lying. Maybe, MAYBE, they just thought the actors work well together and wanted to explore that romance.
