    Summary

    Season 4 goes a bit differently. It goes a little like this: Mike and Max are both depressed. They can't talk to the rest of the party because half are in California, Dustin is clinging to Eddie like a koala, and Lucas has gone full jock. Somewhere along the way, they realize they have more in common than they imagined.

    Or, Mike and Max falling in love during high school (and Season 4's Upside Down never happens).

    Summary

    Langdon looks aghast. “What do you mean you haven’t seen Lord of the Rings?”
    “I mean, it’s not intentional,” says Mel. “I just never got around to it. Plus, it does look kind of goofy – isn’t the villain an evil spotlight?”
    Garcia laughs, but Langdon looks like she just shot his mother right in front of him.

    Summary

    Mel’s third-favorite scene in Dirty Dancing is only a second long. It’s when Johnny jumps off the stage during the final dance and flips his head up right on cue with the singer crooning “Hey, baby!”

    So it was very distracting that, for the rest of the day after her karaoke session with Myrna, Frank had been quietly singing those two words to her every time they ran into each other. A “Hey baby!” when he slid into the chair next to her in the breakroom. Another when they met in the middle both jogging to an ambulance.

    She couldn’t help but laugh every time he did it which, knowing Frank, meant he’d probably do it tomorrow, and the next day, and the next.

    Summary

    “So listen,” Robby says, “I heard you’ve uh, well, that you’re living with Dr. King. Is there any truth to that statement?”

    Frank groans.

    “Yeah, yes, I’m living with her,” he says and Robby gets that crazy look in his eyes so Frank barrels on, “It’s not like that. Robby it’s not,” and Robby doesn’t look like he believes him one bit. “I’m living in her spare room and I pay her rent. We’re roommates. That’s not a crime.”

    or: frank gets out of rehab, gets divorced, and needs somewhere to live. enter mel.

    Summary

    A slow grin spreads across Jack’s face. “You think I’m handsome?”

    Her cheeks flush, spine straightening. “I also said ridiculous,” she tries to deflect, reaching for her beer.

    “Ridiculously,” he corrects, eyebrows rising, grin deepening his dimple, “followed by handsome.”

    //

    or, Samira and Jack run into each other at an airport in another city, and a five hour layover changes everything.
