Watching the show for the first time (but obviously know about Scandoval) and on season 9 and see zero chemistry between Tom and Raquel

Am I missing something? I literally never even see them interact on the show so can’t imagine how they got together! She’s so meek, I can’t imagine her cheating on James and also don’t see any flirtation between her and Tom.

I also see no chemistry between Tom and Ariana or Tom and Katie for that matter. But I saw speculation she and Scando were hooking up as early as 2019 which is 2 years prior to season 9!!
