Dated 30 May, 2009:
Having become aware of the fact that he might actually reciprocate Brad's feelings, Nate heads to Remy's to discuss it with her. She is predictably more open minded than he is, and offers a solution that never would have occurred to him otherwise.

Dated 11 June, 2009:
Brad turns up at Nate's the afternoon after the blizzard on the pretense of checking on him, and with all their ducks finally in a row, the bed seems a pretty natural next stop.

Dated 13 June, 2009:
Nate and Terry meet in the kitchen and hit it off without realising who the other is. When they finally clue in, the awkwardness is surprisingly brief.
