I can totally believe Mikey having spontaneous chemistry with someone he just meets&mdash;gaga eyes and all. I'd just like Mikey to be fair to Leatherhead, since Mikey's already been written as someone who cares so much about the hearts and emotions of other people.

I already discussed this with another friend who's watching the snow; he said Renet will have to do a lot to get remotely on the same sheer level of romance Leatherhead has achieved with Mikey. Unless Mikey and Renet are sleeping together like a couple and eagerly dashing into each other's arms three times in one episode, they still won't be on the same level as Mikey and Leatherhead, and at most Mikey will just be a male version of April&mdash;being ambiguous/indecisive with two people he loves.

Hey, it could still make for good character development. I just tend to be skeptical that this will happen whenever a Ms. Fanservice is involved, especially when her role (and her cup size) has been so hyped for months in advance. Who ever said they needed to END his relationship with Leatherhead? I mean they've never kissed, or any other romantic thing, and I can't (well don't want to) think of Mikey without thinking of his relationship with Leatherhead. I mean saying that in order for Mikey to be with Renet he needs to 'break up' with Leatherhead, is like saying that Raph needs to 'break up' with Spike (I know he's Slash now but I like to call him Spike more) in order to be with Mona Lisa.
