Meanwhile, fans on social media reacted to the preview and speculated about the potential romance between the duo.

A fan said, "Sooo.... Austin is now dating is just-a-friend roommate?!?" Another added, "Call me suspicious but Austin and his roommate give off more than roommate vibes.... especially when she consoled him upon his return home from the apartment he and Becca shared. Is it just me or does anyone else see it also?"

One fan wrote, "Ofc Austin's now dating his roommate *pretend shock*." Another noted, "Idk if I'm reading too much into it but did yall see how Austin's roommate was looking at him she looked so smitten and like she was almost glad things didn't work out (not in an evil way but...) I wonder if she has a thing for him."

One critic noted, "Ew!! Austin and his roommate? A relationship by default how healthy. lol I knew that she liked him. She kept looking at him with the puppy dog eyes. Thank God, Becca and him didn’t stay together."
