Community: 10 Worst Things Abed Has Ever Done

5. Seducing Annie

As is the case with most sitcoms, the sex life and string of attraction for our main cast is a convoluted mess. One of the primary exceptions in terms of the younger characters though is Annie and Abed. Their relationship is presented in a purely platonic manner, and we never get the implication that they will end up romantically entangled. That is except for the times when one of Abed’s “characters” will try to seduce her.

In the episode For a Few Paintballs More, the whole school takes on a Star Wars theme with Abed sliding into the Han Solo role. As Han, he seemingly decides upon Annie as his Leia, and continually makes moves towards her throughout the episode. These engagements are mostly against her consent and clearly to her discomfort. It all culminates in a rapturous kiss under a stream of paint in the final moments of the game that leaves Annie weak at the knees and giggly in the aftermath. By then the persona has left Abed though, and he’s no longer interested because that was just Han.

It’s a regular pattern he shows with Annie. In a previous episode, Physical Education, he was practicing seduction techniques to use on another girl and went with a Don Draper style that had a very similar effect on Annie. Moments away from a kiss though, he pulled away and revealed his technique like a stage magician. To make matters worse, he wasn’t even interested in the girl he was practicing these moves for.
