Oh, yeah. I could see this. I could see how Melchett would give into temptation, and be okay with it until he's reminded that George was Georgina, and made a fool out of him. (Admittedly, George didn't do that on purpose, but Melchett wouldn't see it that way.) I think it's interesting that Melchett spoke to, and threw out, George the same way that George did to Bob. That was a nice echo, and another bit of genderfuckery too. Poor, poor, sweet George, though. The love of his life is Melchett, for God's sake. (Oh, enjoyed the physical description of George. Yum.)
