Summary
Two Bucks walk parallel along the same street in LA in two different places, having two conversations with two Bobby Nashes. It could be the start of the universe’s most confusing joke.
[The one where, due to vague sci-fi reasons and timeline shenanigans, Buck Buckley switches bodies with Evan Nash]
Set during the lawsuit, but pretty hit or miss with plot accuracy. Buddie is kind of hinted at, queerbait style, but honestly Buck has too much going on here to unpack all that.

And there, Phillip's voice echoed in his head:“When you lose a child, you… you see him everywhere, in all the people he could have become, in all the lives he could have lived. It’s something you can never recover from, someone who can never be replaced!"
Because that was the point, wasn't it?
Buck didn't know how to be a son because he was never anyone's baby; just a reminder of what his parents had lost.
He knew that, but what scratched the walls of his brain was the annoying thought that crept under his skin and whispered the fateful question: did Bobby also see him as nothing more than what his kids could have been?
-
Or, If being someone's son meant living as a fallback, Buck was destined to die in someone else's shadow.
Bobby won't allow that.

Summary
“I’ll be right back,” Eddie says, as his eyes snap to something over Buck’s shoulder. “Stay here with Chris.”
Eddie presses a firm kiss to Buck's lips before ducking off into the crowd, and Buck watches him go with a dazed look on his face.
“You guys are kissing now?” Chris asks curiously. “I didn’t think he’d told you yet.”
That drags Buck back to reality.
“Huh?” he says. “Told me what?”
Chris raises an eyebrow. “Dad’s told you how he feels, right?”
“It’s just been the kissing actually,” Buck admits, still a little out of it. “I don’t think he’s fully aware he’s doing it?”

(Buck's not sure what's going on when Eddie starts accidentally kissing him. Eddie's not as oblivious as Buck thinks he is.)
