   Summary

   Dennis makes a split-second (bad) decision, and it blows up in his face. It's a hard lesson to learn as he navigates life and figures out what is going to happen to him now that he's stuck on recovery and Trinity won't be home- but they won't release him without someone to be with him just in case.
   An opportunity presents itself, and Rabbot jump on it.
