I think well do a little better this season than just an actual, real kiss, Hanson teases.
But you tell me in about three months whether weve succeeded or not.
So, I think were moving toward something bigger than just a kiss.
What could possibly be bigger that sucking face?
Yep, sex was my first guess, too.
My intention is to keep [the audience] very frustrated.
Getting back to the how long before they consummate question, Im thinking May sweeps.
