Summary
It happens in the middle of the night which is not fair. It’s in that period of darkness where the chair looks like a person and Mondale, released from his crate, seems like the only thing she can cling to in her confusion.

Summary
He’s hoping it will happen naturally. Like a cat crawling off to hide under the porch. As angry as he is with Shiv and Rome he doesn’t want them to feel guilty about it, to think they killed him because it’s not true. Sometimes he thinks he’s never been alive at all. Just a thing propped up by his father and told how to walk and talk and constantly failing those slim expectations.
Despite his best efforts, Kendall lives.

Summary
“You look beautiful,” Rava says to Shiv’s alarm. Shiv watches as her skin goes red in the mirror and she wants to rip herself away from Rava, if Rava thinks she needs someone to coddle her or something. Maybe Kendall needs that but Shiv doesn’t.
Rava takes Shiv prom dress shopping.

Summary
He’s doing better now. So much better that it’s almost laughable where he was before, hanging by a thread, at the bottom of the bottle, whatever analogy you want to use to describe the situation of being completely and totally fucked. But for now he is alone, but he always is, the pendulum swings back and forth, nothing stays, he’s doing just fine.
Kendall in the early days of season 4

Summary
When he sits back down at the head of the table, he kisses Gregory on the cheek. “Do you want to make a wish too?”
Gregory gurgles, entranced by the flames of the eighteen candles, tears still drying on his reddened cheeks. Gregory rarely cries—a trait that does not run in the family, something the older four make a point to remind Eloise and Francesca—but when he does, he seems to pick the worst moments.
Anthony wraps one hand around Gregory’s tiny fists as a safety precaution, and he reaches across the table, tugging the cake closer to them. He mimes it once before he starts blowing out the candles. Gregory copies him with a joyous coo.
And, mid-laugh after Gregory manages to take out precisely one of the candles, Anthony realizes he does need to make a wish, and he has nothing he wants to wish for. So, he wishes for more of the same.

Summary
Eddie listens to the voicemail later. Buck sounds like he’s at a grocery store, absentmindedly talking into the phone. “Oh, I guess you’re with your sisters. Sorry to miss you. I just wanted to tell you about this call we had last night, but I gotta hear your reactions, so, later. Okay, uh, I guess I’ll just call back. Or text.”
It ends abruptly, without a goodbye. Eddie replays it a second time, closes his eyes as he sits in the truck. For a moment, he can pretend Buck is sitting in the passenger seat next to him. For a moment, Eddie is back in Los Angeles and his best friend is dragging him through the grocery store.
The voicemail ends, Eddie opens his eyes, and the fantasy breaks. Eddie is still in El Paso, parked in front of the house he’s renting, and there’s no one in the passenger seat with him.
Eddie moves to Texas. Buck moves into his house. There's a love story somewhere in here.

Summary
Whoever told Buck that excessively talking and narrating things to his baby would aid in her cognitive development is a bitch.
“I have to go to work today, so you’re gonna hang out with your Auntie Maddie because she has the day off, and then tomorrow morning after my shift you and I are gonna get breakfast with Eddie, so I’m packing your pink dress with the blue flowers because I think it’s very breakfasty. That’s not a word, though. Sometimes it’s okay to make up words for emphasis, but not all the time, okay?”
Evie thinks her dad is the most fascinating thing in the world and he would like to keep it that way, thank you very much. She stares and smiles at him while he talks, reacts to certain words like she’s starting to understand what they mean, claps her hands together when he says the names of her favorite people, it’s awesome.
However, Buck seems to have made one very grave mistake and in her very first act of spite against her dad, Evie will not let him live it down.
"Eddie!"
Or, narrating his entire life to his daughter started as a good idea until she decided to use her first word to out Buck’s big dumb crush on his best friend.

Summary
“What are we doing, Buck?” And Eddie’s whispering. Becomes aware suddenly that that’s all they’ve really been doing.
And Buck doesn’t say anything, doesn’t even move, or try to. It should snap him out of it, but it doesn’t, he just swallows, eyes on Eddie and Eddie feels his chest start getting warmer. When they’re out of this, when they’re two people and not touching, not connected in anyway, Eddie will tell himself the heat was from Buck, not from him, not radiating from within, but external.
“Why aren’t you doing this with Tommy?” he asks instead.
Buck breathes in, low and slow, his chest expanding with it and Eddie can feel it against his own, the way it pushes back at him on his own exhale, like they’ve figured out how to fit together without any of their jagged edges cutting into each other. “Tommy’s not here,”
Eddie’s hand tightens around his thigh, the one wrapped over Eddie’s shoulder, “No,” he agrees, and that seems to not be the issue, not in the slightest. Not in Eddie’s mind, at least. “He’s not.”

Summary
“Okay, this is—” Eddie runs a hand through his hair, growing increasingly distressed, “you guys are purposely missing the point here. Buck, I’m not getting high with you, dude.”
“Uh, why not?” Buck asks, tilting his head. He has the audacity to sound genuinely puzzled.
“We can’t. We’re firefighters,” Eddie says, confused that Buck is confused.
Buck gives him a sad smile. “Not right now, we aren’t. And we won’t be, Eddie, not for a while.”
Buck and Eddie get injured on the job and decide to smoke a lot of weed about it.
