I have seen every episode up to the current bomb so I am fully caught up.

Having seen and been in romantic relationships I can assure you that there are characteristics to them that don't exist between Lars and Sadie. When real people behave towards one another the way Lars and Sadie do, no one assumes they are in love.

First, Sadie hits Lars. She hits him hard. She knocked him into a pit in "Island Adventure". UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS IT EVER PERMITTED TO HIT OR OTHERWISE PHYSICALLY ABUSE ANOTHER PERSON IN A RELATIONSHIP! Sadie does not yet appear to have learned this. Lars could rightfully have her charged with assault and battery for everytime she's ever hit or pushed him around. Unless you are perfectly comfortable with your partner hitting you when angry or frustrated you cannot justify Sadie hitting Lars.

Second, Sadie poisoned Lars' food out of malice. This is also a crime. Sadie was not pranking Lars. She was seeking vengeance for a perceived slight by deliberately inflicting pain on him. This is also abuse. As someone who works in food service Sadie should be well aware of the laws concerning food tampering.

Third, she falsly imprisoned Lars and Steven on Mask Island. False imprisonment is a crime as well. Notice a pattern here? Even though she could have ended the ordeal at any time Sadie did nothing as Lars' mental state decended into a full emotional breakdown. When Lars discovered Sadie's deception and called her out on it, Sadie beat him and knocked him into the aforementioned pit.

It may be just me but if someone did to me what Sadie did to Lars in those three examples, I'd be pressing charges and filing for a restraining order. If Sadie loves Lars she has a rather twisted way of showing it. Being in another galaxy is the safest place for Lars to be right now until such time as Sadie spends some time with a therapist and figures out what love actually is and how to properly express it.
