⚠️ Contains images of Cla##!!

At the wedding, we’d already noticed that he looked at Syd whenever he could; here, it was quite telling: even while dancing with Cla@$, he was looking at Syd, completely enchanted.

In the final season, in the last episode, he made the same face, and Clai$# was right there trying to get his attention, but he seemed to be in a trance, staring at Syd. She quickly says something to him, but he doesn't even pay attention.

He was like that after that

He doesn't even try to hide it anymore, lol.

Carmy, Carmy!

And, as far as I'm concerned, what really set all this in motion was his visit to Donna's house, at Syd's urging.

When he left Donna's room and went into another room, he seemed nostalgic.

After picking up the sweater, she made a weird face, just like that time she was dancing with Cl@# at Tiff's wedding.

We can tell when Carmy is uncomfortable

However, when he returned to the restaurant, he and Ricthie talked, and he said that his conversation with Donna had gone well; once he felt more at ease, the scene where he and Syd were getting close unfolded.

I think he knew what it would mean to give her the sweater and decided against it, especially after that argument with Syd in the alley—when he realized she wanted him there, it stirred something in him, and that’s why he came back like a little puppy the next day

My fucking favorite picture
