i don't think Matt cared about J/V. he just thought it was weird given Matt & Elena's history (ep. 5) it was T/V he had the problem w/.

the hospital scenes in ep 2, he didn't say anything negative. i think just hey & he left.

then there were the grill scenes. he wasn't mad just probably shocked like everyone else was. he just brushed it off.

then that 1 scene at the grill where hes like Vicki made ppl work for her love & Jeremy said he found it pretty easy.

he even defended Jeremy in that football episode.

then ep 6 after she was transitioning, he saw them in Jeremy's room & knew they really cared for each other. a quick scene during the halloween dance & that was it.

don't think they had a single scene S2.

then theres this instant bond in the premiere.

i like them as friends too, they just need to find Matt a g/f. but of course theres no one to choose from. they could all go on a double date!!!!
