    Following the grocery store confrontation, Buck can't find a good reason to keep fighting to come back to people who don't want him. He drafts up his resignation, only to be stopped by a phone call from Chris' school, telling him that Christropher was transported to the hospital, and they can't get ahold of Eddie.

    Summary

    Bobby Nash wasn’t sure what he had expected from his first foster child. Maybe he thought Evan would be some sort of teenage delinquent. Maybe the kid would think he was too old to be parented or be mean to May and Harry. Maybe he would run away or try to get moved to a different home. Maybe he would be nothing but trouble and make Bobby and Athena regret fostering in the first place. They should have just stuck to the plan and gotten a younger kid like Athena had wanted.

    But what Bobby didn’t expect was for the social worker to show up at their house at nine o’clock at night. He didn’t expect for the kid by her side to simultaneously look way too young for 14 and at the same time so much older. Evan was curled in on himself, making him seem far smaller than he should be but the fear and wariness in his eyes was something far too mature for him. Bobby didn’t expect for his first foster child to stand there on his porch, shivering in the pouring rain with nothing but a sweatshirt and a blooming black eye on his face. But what he certainly didn’t expect was for the kid to worm his way into his heart so quickly.

    Summary

    “You two are already attached at the hip,” Hen comments, trying to make light of the situation.

    “Well, we’re not attached at the hip in the way I want,” Eddie says without any control and snaps his mouth shut with horror.

    All of the sudden, Eddie finds the ceiling of the ambulance very interesting. Focus on it on the silence that follows.

    “You could blame it on the head injury,” Chim offers.

    -
    Eddie has a concussion. Suddenly he can't lie.
    It would be fine if he wasn't trying his best to not confess his undying love for Buck.

    Summary

    On the screen, the camera pans down as they introduce the contestants. Mary, on her 3rd day winning streak, is a dowdy teacher type. Center stage is occupied by a graying man with loopy handwriting named Auggie. And all the way to the right is…

    Evan.

    Damn.

    ---

    One night when Eddie can't sleep, he discovers the hottest Jeopardy contestant of all time (objectively). With the "help" of his team and his fairly good working knowledge of Twitter, they devise a plan to get Evan (from Jeopardy) to slide into Eddie's DMs. It works surprisingly well.

    Summary

    Ohhh, David realises as he gets handed a plate. Okay, I got it. He was surprised that Bobby’s son hadn’t come up when Michael first mentioned his children given how much emphasis he put on the positive co-parenting relationship their family unit strived to maintain. But then again – Buck was obviously much older than Michael and Athena’s two children if he had a child the same age as Harry. The step/co-parenting dynamic would clearly be completely different than it was with May and Harry.


    Or,


    The one where David is determined to prove that he’s in it with Michael for the long-haul, and that includes accepting and caring about the children of the Grant-Nash household. All 3 of them.


    (And Athena and Michael laugh more than they have in months, Bobby is sheepish, and David learns a bit about chosen families).
