Well okay it's not just Sam. There's like four other guys that don't have dates who are like... obligated to! It's like part of the social code!

It's not a big deal. Homecoming's two and a half weeks away. I'm sure they'll have dates soon enough. While you fuss over that, I'm going to make brownies, okay? Talk to you later.
