Sam began tweeting at Greg in 2016. In late August of that year, he ran an art contest for his fans. Sam submitted a drawing she made of Greg and Kai. (Source) With over 500 likes, Sam won the art contest. (Source) Greg sent Sam a Macbook for winning the contest.
Sam continued to support Greg and Kai through 2017. By 2018, Sam had 76 tweets mentioning Onision and 61 tweets mentioning Kai. (Source)

According to Sam, Greg planned on streaming on twitch with her before she came to the house. She says he told her if their streams got big he would giver her a percentage, but that never happened. They also had an agreement that if twitch never picked up, she would find a part time job there. She says when she got there, the subject of her finding a part time job never came up again. She also said before she moved in, she and Greg agreed they would not be in a relationship. (Source)
In January 2018, Greg brought Sam to his and Kai's home. He introduced Sam online as his cameraman.
On January 23, 2018, Kai uploaded the video "MY NEW TATTOO". In the video, Kai gets a thigh tattoo of two elephants. ($ource) The design was made by Sam. The elephants are meant to represent Kai's children.
On January 29, 2018 when asked about his relationship with Sam during a stream, Greg commented, "Just think of Sam as a person, and not anything else... people are weird when I'm around women, but life is far less weird IRL." (Source)
While she was there, Greg and Sam made a handful Onision / Patreon sketch videos together, including the videos "My Girlfriend Is Pregnant (Onision)" and "I PROPOSED TO HER!!!!". Sam had animated an outro based on Greg's classic Onision outro, but it featured a cartoon of herself and her name squashing the work "Onision".

Sam drew thumbnail art for Greg. ([ Source]) She also created merch for Kai and Greg, but the design she made for Kai was never released. The merch she drew for Greg consisted of his characters Emo Charlie and Rod Danger kissing. (Source)
Sam later revealed she was not being paid for the work she did for Greg. ()
Tension
Many people following believed there was tension between Kai and Sam. When fans would try to ask Kai about Sam during his YouNow streams, Kai would ignore them.
Sam and Greg frequently streamed games together on twitch. They would sit in separate desks facing away from each other. (Source) It was speculated Greg gave Sam Kai's desk due to Kai complaining on Younow that his desk had to be moved.
One day, users in Kai's Younow chat joked that they would start a petition to get Kai's desk back. Sam replied in chat, "we will get you a better deck." (Source)
In February, Sam began streaming at night alone. It seems she was now streaming from her own bedroom in the house. (Source) She confirmed on a stream that she was now living with Kai and Greg. (Source) In another stream, she confessed she had thought about being in a three-way relationship with Greg and Kai. When asked if she liked them, she said yes, but neither of them have brought up the topic of her joining their relationship. (Source)

Post Visit
After Sam had not streamed for several days, someone contacted her on twitter and asked if everything was ok. She replied she was fine and she was no longer living with Greg and Kai. She said things will be healthier without having her in the picture. (Source) A screen shot of this conversation was shared online on February 17, 2018.
Later that day, while Greg was streaming, someone asked why Sam left. He says it's up to Sam to talk about it. He says there's no reason for him to talk about it if Sam never said anything negative about him. When asked if he cared about Sam, he says he does because Sam is his friend. Someone said Kai was jealous of Sam. Greg said Kai was not jealous, he was nervous because he has low self esteem. He says Kai is nervous every day that he will leave Kai. He says Kai said the last few days have been the happiest days of his life and they've come a long way. He says Kai now knows more than ever that he's not going to leave him. (Source) Some Drama Followers perceived Greg's statement about it being up to Sam if he talks about what happened as a threat. They believed he may have been holding onto information that would make Sam look bad.
After Greg's stream, Sam talked about the situation on her own stream. She says the situation in the house got so uncomfortable, she spent the last two days there alone in her room to give Greg and Kai space. She says Kai hinted on Younow that he believed Sam stole clothes and makeup from him. When Sam was told about this, she was upset and pulled out her makeup bag to go through it. Sam also said she could hear them talking about her from another room. Sam was upset she didn't do more to make things better between the three of them, but she can't fight for someone who refuses to put in any effort. (Source)
In Kai's stream, he denied being the reason why Sam left. He said it was a mutual decision. He also denies ever accusing Sam of stealing anything. Kai says there's a difference between being "insecure" (finger quotes) and doing things that are totally inappropriate that make people uncomfortable. He says Sam could talk to him personally if she has any questions. Someone says Kai ignored Sam then whole time she was there. Kai says he didn't, Sam ignored him. (Source)
The next day, Sam spoke about the situation again on her stream. She says she was convinced the reason she was at the house was to be in a poly relationship because when she was there he said he did not need a camera person. She says you can't disprove that. She says she finds Greg handsome, but she did not do anything. She says she doesn't waste her time with people she can't be with and the more she looked at the situation, the more she realized it was not possible. She says he joked and told her she would be a tough person to groom. She says she doesn't think he was grooming her. She says she realizes now he was lying about her purpose for being there. She says it doesn't make sense for someone to blow up over something so petty, but it makes sense for them to blow up over a relationship not working out. She said for a short time they did stuff, but not much. She said she wanted to, but was shy about it and could sense someone was uncomfortable. She says he went from saying she was still his friend to hating her and saying she tried to ruin his relationship. (Source)
For the next few days, Sam continued to be friendly online toward Greg and Kai. She liked their social media posts, commented on their Youtube and twitch channels, and worked on animations for Greg's twitch channel.
Friendship Termination
On February 21, 2018, this all came to a screeching halt when Sam appeared on a drama YouNow channel for an interview. The interview is no longer available, but according to Sam, it was about a Go Fund Me she created shortly after leaving Greg and Kai's home. She said she refunded the donations and was interviewed to clear up information for people who thought it was a scam. (Source)
Greg was upset Sam appeared on a drama channel. He spoke negatively about Sam on stream with his Patreon / Discord members. (Source)
After watching Greg's stream, Sam took to Twitch to respond. She says she received messages from Greg. He was upset she did the interview because he thought she did it to trash talk him. Sam says that was not true.
She says he believes a rumor going around that she said they kissed, but she never said that. She says it upset her he said "that's disgusting" during his stream in response to the thought of them kissing.
He compared the time Sam said they ate Cheerios for breakfast during a stream to when he exposed Billie's private medical history to the internet. He compared her to a walking camera and said he felt like he couldn't have privacy in his own home. She says she only ever said they had Cheerios and that Kai made her avocado toast to complimented Kai's cooking.
She says he was making petty arguments because he has nothing against her.
He acted like her saying anything about Kai was "hating." She says before she started streaming in their house, she asked him what he would like her to avoid. He told her just avoid the subject of Kai because Kai would cringe. Sam says she didn't take it as don't talk about Kai at all, but that's what he meant. She says that's not realistic because she lived with Kai.
Greg said he said he was scared of what she could have said. She asks what is there to be scared of? She says he acted like there was something he didn't want to say because she could say anything and people would believe her.
One of his discord fans defended Sam and told Greg she never said anything bad about Greg or Kai. Greg responded that she said bad things about Kai. He said Sam said Kai was anxious around Sam, but Sam points out Greg also said that. Sam says she was always super careful about what she said during streams and made sure she never said anything Greg and Kai already hadn't said first.
"They want me to disappear off the internet? Good fucking luck."
Sam says after watching his stream, she no longer believes he ever saw her as a friend. He said Sam coming to the house was there was a waste because he could have done all the videos they made together by himself. He says he lost $1,000 by having her there. She said she was really hurt by that and repeatedly stated throughout the stream it made her feel physically sick. She says he said more horrible things about her that she could say about him. She said he's a liar because he told her he was waiting to record one of the videos they made together for a long time because he needed someone to record it with.
Sam says she loved Greg as a friend and considered him her best friend, but now she's done. He used to say she was his friend, but she now doubts she was ever his friend.
Sam says Greg was upset on stream that she said she had feelings for Kai, but not him. He said she lied and was not honest because she did not say how she really felt about him. She says she knew they'd never be in a poly relationship, so why bother having feelings like that?
Sam theorizes they are trying to rile her up enough to get her to talk about them on stream so they can finally make a drama video about her and make money.
She says she also heard he commented about the way her feet look. She says she couldn't find the clip in his stream, but she knows he would say that because he's commented about her feet before.
He also spoke about how she re-tweeted an image calling him a pedophile. She says it's okay for him to entertain the trolls, but when she does it she's a "hater."
She says she heard he showed an email between them. She says he's probably going to show the email where she thanks him for being her friend and showing her Metal Gear Solid 5.
She says he said she didn't work for free because he lost money having her there. She says the one payment she got from him was new twitch followers.
She said she was very happy the whole time she was there, but now how things ended makes her wish she never went.
She says she thinks he sees her as an ex-friend now.
She laughs at someone making fun of Kai, "hello mr. therapist. I have serious PTSD after a house guest told the world that I ate a bowl of Cheerios on the 11th of January. I haven't been able to sleep since." She say=id that's a good one. She said she's getting a break up video for that. She jokes she'll make a break up video first.
While Sam was on stream, Greg emailed her saying he's sorry she's hurt by how he feels about "various things." He says he had a good time making videos and gaming with her. (Source)
Greg said he lost interest in hugging Sam because he realized she would never be in a poly relationship with them. Same says he never told her to stop hugging him.
He claimed she hugged him from behind. Sam says a few weeks into living together, they were sitting in their office and she hugged him from the side. She told him he was being distant and asked what was up? She said he was visibly distraught. She guesses that's when he was uncomfortable and he told Kai. She said at that point he had hugged her a lot. She said it was very common he wouldn't even ask before hugging her. She implied Greg was the one who started offering hugs during their friendship. She says if you don't want something, you better be vocal about it. She says he would hug her in front of Kai. They were hugging for a month.
"If friends give each other full body massages, why is a hug bad?"

Greg complained Sam never cleaned. She asks where in the job description did it say she had to clean the house. She asks if she was supposed to clean after a whole family? She said she would have done it if he asked, but he never did.
She says everything was thrown in the dishwasher, so she didn't need to wash the dishes.
She says the guest shower she was using was backed up She told them the day she got there, but they didn't unclog it until the day before she leaves. She said her feet was in a pool of filth every time she took a shower. She says it was like a clumpy oatmeal mess. She says she never complained about that when she was there.
She asks if she was supposed to clean up after the person who used the guest bathroom before her.
She says they have a family member who comes to their house once a week to clean. She says they'll probably get mad at her for saying that even thought they talk about it online. (Source)
She says he gave her a hand massage her first week there. She says Greg talked about a private phone call she had with Kai, so she's allowed to talk about a hand massage. (Source)
