“Do you recognize her?” Ted asks, glancing over the newspaper you’re holding. “She looks familiar.”

Maybe it’s weird you and Ted are stalking Michael on his date. Maybe you’re just being good friends. Because that’s all you are: friends. Ted isn’t willing to admit he’s in love with you and Michael in fear either of you will think it’s weird.

Michael doesn’t even notice the two of you following him around. He’s blissfully unaware, chatting away to his date.
