Have her cake and eat it too...

Warning: Spoilers
While I applaud this series for trying something different with a Hallmark love interest, the way they ended this particular episode was infuriating. We have an established main character with a big-heart who consistently treats Norman poorly. This episode focuses on giving us a little more back-story on Mike and also letting Norman show a few new sides of himself, stregnthening his bond with Hannah. He straight up asks her out on Valentines day and she accepts. Then, after Mike asks her out too, she suddenly changes her plans in a surprise twist to have dinner with her mom and sister instead. This solves nothing. It is supposed to be a solution to not hurting anyone's feelings but it concretely is her cancelling her plans with Norman so she doesn't have to discourage Mike. He would be cancelled on either way. There isn't a lingering "decision" to be made, she clearly made it but is trying to be non-confrontational about it so she has a backup guy if things don't work out with Mike.....

Shameful. I hope Norman ends up with the assistant baker, she seems positive and delightful.

The murder twists were good in this episode though. Didn't actually see the ending coming. So good points for that!
