Summary
They sprint back to the car, arms uselessly covering their heads. Eddie's frustrated swearing quickly dissolving into bubbling laughter to match Buck's own. Eddie’s hair is falling over his face, droplets sliding lazily down his nose. He looks like a heartthrob at the climax of some early 2000s romance. This is the scene where the music swells. Where he professes his love. Where he promises to stay.
Reality is a key in the ignition. Radio coming through the speakers a little too loud. The click of seatbelts. The GPS voice telling them to merge back onto the 10. To head east. And east and east and east.

Summary
Pink carnations droop in crystal vases. White tablecloths are stained with dropped hors d'oeuvres. The grass is littered with the remnants of the party. Broken plastic champagne glasses, paper napkins, scattered rose petals. His wife is getting their son ready for bed. His best friend is hunched over the dance floor with a trash bag, helping to clean up. He's standing by one of the cocktail tables. Just watching.
