[ Oh, a diplomat he definitely is not. Just imagine how badly Jeff would fumble one of your meetings, Cam.

But at least they can both appreciate what the other does bring to the table. Whatever comes of this, if anything at all, he's glad to at least have a friendly night out with someone his age, who's worldly and witty (which Jeff can appreciate a lot more now that said wit isn't being used to insult him).

Also, now that he knows this is a date, he can actually admire Cam a little more openly than before, not having to worry about masking any glances as something neutral and professional.

Hell, he can actually stare into Cam's eyes now-- no, wait, that might be weird. Whatever. He just likes the way Cam's eyes look when he smiles.

And, at the toast, Jeff laughs, something caught between a chuckle and a giggle, clinking their glasses together. ]

To JJ. For making this night possible. Though I don't think she intended to play matchmaker.
