There’s nothing greater than the very beginning of a relationship, when you first start dating someone. There’s an innocence and anticipation that excites you and all you want to do is be alone with that person 24/7. Of course this period never lasts because you inevitably have to introduce your special someone to your friends. Now this can go two ways: 1) your friends love him and all is well or 2) your friends hate him and things go from sweet to sour. How did Max (Adam Pally) and Grant (James Wolk) fair up?
