Well, I had to reason it out because I figured a companion wouldn't take sex with another person as rejection... there had to be something else for it to work (for me). But yeah, it is funny... I wanted it to work, and I couldn't help picking at it until it made sense to me.

(I think that might make it sound like I spent a lot more time/energy on it than I actually did; I wasn't obsessed over it, or anything. It just stuck out as the one scene that I didn't "get" in the series.)
