   Summary

   "I didn't realize this was a funeral."

   Dana looks up from studying her hands in the sink (her left ring finger, in particular) to catch Dr. Santos's face in the bathroom mirror.

   "It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to," she shrugs.

   The evening that was meant to be a celebration of her retirement from The Pitt (for keeps this time, no going back for any reason, boredom be damned) has been largely spent avoiding questions about where her husband is and attempting to discreetly solicit divorce lawyer recommendations from Lena.

   It hadn't been her idea. Dana had planned to spend her retirement reconnecting with Benji, repairing the relationship that had suffered under the weight of years of putting patients and coworkers first. Only to find out the week of her retirement that her husband had apparently, for months, been working his way up to informing her that he was done with their marriage, and he wanted to move back home to be closer to his mother.

   Which is to say, she's having a bit of a fucking time.

   Trinity cheers Dana up. (They eventually fuck about it.)
