   Summary

   "It's always on the busiest days that the universe decides something interesting is going to happen."

   OR

   The Gentry boys have been through a traumatic childhood which has left them further apart than they have ever been. The brothers haven't seen each other in over 15 years and it's going to take hell for them to reunite, so it's lucky they've been through it before.
