Melissa and Sam met while working together at Scofflaw. While Melissa was not interested in the idea of dating a coworker, Sam's charm and sense of humor won her over when they went to Big Star after a work meeting. The next few days consisted of listening to records, Sam attempting to teach Melissa how to play the guitar, decorating christmas trees, terrible bowling skills, and finally their first kiss in the Red Hot Ranch parking lot. They have been inseparable ever since.
