Hmm. Mr. Manager seems to be playing a tricksy game. I suspect he knows more about their interactions than he's letting on and he's intentionally playing them against each other to either push them into accomplishing more or figuring out how to work together, because they'd never manage either on their own.
Also, it looks like it's time for Hate Sex: Round 2. There also seems to be some jealousy over the new girl.
