    Summary

    Mark one year post rehab, Langdon just want the day to past by, but Mel King had other plans.

    A pirate-wrapped gift, a terrible note, and one vintage pocket knife later, Frank thinks the hardest part of his day might be surviving Mel’s sense of humor.

    Then the ER goes into lockdown.

    When a white supremacist group storms the trauma wing with their wounded leader, they refuse to trust Dr. Al-Hashimi and demand that Langdon operate instead. Not because he is the right doctor for the job, but because he is the kind of man they want to believe in.

    Trapped between armed extremists, terrified patients, and the ugliest kind of trust, Frank has to survive the day without becoming the symbol they want him to be.

    Summary

    She watches him strut around headquarters, trying to look confident and purposeful as he searches for a reason to be there—orbiting Mel, while being quietly consumed by something she isn't sure he has the cojones to face.

    Trinity sighs, weighing her vendetta against Mel's happiness. She really is getting a martyr complex, just like the rest of these sick fucks.

    (Kingdon, reluctantly witnessed and orchestrated by Trinity Santos, who kinda has her own thing going on and doesn't need this right now)

    Summary

    “So you know how Abby and I are going through a rough patch.”

    Mel cocked her head. “I thought you were getting a divorce.”

    “Nah, she won’t actually go through with that. She’s just making me work for it,” Frank said, as if he hadn’t been served with divorce papers in the ED lobby through the plexiglass.

    “Ah,” said Mel.

    He took a deep breath. “So anyway, I was thinking. You’re single, I’m separated. We should be friends with benefits. Just for six months or so, until Abby takes me back.”

    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.
