Spoilers for Episode 2 of Off Campus, as well as the book The Deal, are ahead! Read with caution, and stream the series with an Amazon Prime subscription.

When I was reading the Off Campus novels and preparing for the book-to-screen adaptation’s premiere on the 2026 TV schedule, I saw so many posts from readers about wanting to see the moment where Hannah kisses Dean in an effort to prove to Garrett that she does not have feelings for him. Then, I watched the show, and was shocked to see it changed that scene to involve Logan in the kiss instead of Dean. So, CinemaBlend had to ask the guys who play them about this, and they told me why this update actually packs a bigger punch.

As I mentioned, in the book Season 1 of Off Campus is inspired by, Garrett and Hannah shared a kiss that’s for “practice” because she was still trying to woo Justin. However, it’s clear both she and Garrett were feeling real feelings as they made out. Then, Dean walked in, called them out, and told Hannah that if it was just for practice, she should kiss him. So, she did.
