    Summary

    The 118 host Buck’s birthday appetizer…

    PowerPoint Night.

    Unfortunately, the 118 collectively shares one brain cell.

    What begins as “give a presentation about something you love” quickly devolves into a deeply unhinged competition over who knows Buck Buckley best.

    Featuring:

    * one disqualified Chimney
    * Bobby committing emotional crimes
    * Hen peer-reviewing eight years of friendship
    * Eddie Diaz being an unbearable little shit
    * Buck accidentally pitching married life through gardening

    OR

    “To be known is to be loved.”

    Summary

    “—and I know that there’s Becca and Tanner and Millie to consider, but I was wondering if you maybe wanted to move in? Together? With me?”

    Mel blinks. He certainly doesn’t look like he’s having a stroke.

    “Frank, why would we move in together?”

    “I thought it might be nice,” he shrugs here, acting nonchalant even though Mel can see the tension in his jaw. “To take that next step in our relationship.”

    “Frank, what are you talking about? We’re not in a relationship?”

    At this, Frank’s frown deepens before widening into a frustrated half smile. “Uh, yes we are? We’ve been dating for nine months?”

    What.

     

    Or, Frank thinks Mel doesn’t do physical touch.
    Or, Mel doesn’t realize they’ve been dating for nine months.

    Summary

    For a moment, he wonders with his eyes open fixating on the mole under Eddie’s left eye as he’s peaceful and serene and near that if Buck were to reach out and touch him—would he be considered holy?

    Would the touch bleed through his flesh? Would he be regarded as sacred having to touch something reverent?

    Would this be a prayer?

    Would this be talking to God asking him to do something divine?

    Or: Buck realises his feelings for Eddie as Eddie learns to bake, shaves his moustache off, tries to bring his son back home and realises he’s gay all this time.

    Summary

    May realised a very long time ago that Buck was basically her stepbrother. So, when the lightning strike finally provided the impetus for Bobby to admit that he also brought a kid into their family, she had every intention of seizing the opportunity to properly integrate Buck into the Grant-Nash family.

    And, look, if in the process she also gains a brother-in-law… clearly the universe was just waiting for the opportunity to make that happen.

    -

    Or, the one where May ensures Buck is enfolded properly into the Grant-Nash clan, which means Bobby (and by extension the firefam, because gossip) suddenly gets significantly more insight into the inner workings of the Buckley-Diaz family, and all roads lead to Buddie…
