Summary
Trinity tilted her head to the side with a curious look at Mel. She did this sometimes when she realized there was some fundamental knowledge about social rules that Mel didn’t have. It happened more often than Mel would’ve liked. “That’s kind of why people flirt, Mel. To figure out if someone likes you back without having to say it outright.”
“Oh.”
Trinity leaned closer to Mel with a mischievous grin. “Is there someone you’d like to test the waters with?”

Summary
He ate two of the Oreos in the morning, bopped between more cases than he could count on two hands, took fifteen to eat half the sandwich and some grapes, got back to it until his feet hurt and his back was bothering him and he had sweat stains at his armpits, and then finished the rest of the lunch in the break room. He was ravenous, actually. Thinking about her making him lunch made him hungrier, somehow. He got a pack of donuts from the vending machine too, and drank his usual Red Bull too. By the time he got back out on the floor he was bloated and a little nauseous from eating so quickly.
Mel caught his eye from across the room and he blushed. Relax man, she just made you lunch.

Summary
To understand social interactions better, Mel makes a spreadsheet cataloging her co-workers responses. She incorporates aspects of others' personalities into her own, noting how they respond. The data is useful and comprehensive and Mel is satisfied with the experiment, so she stops.
Until Frank Langdon shows back up and punches a big hole in her carefully cultivated data.
