Summary
"And you are?" Lena says, holding her hand out to shake. Kara takes it, and puts in every effort not to crush it in her nervousness. Lena's hand is dry and cold where Kara's is uncomfortably hot.
"Kara Danvers," Kara says, putting on her best smile. "Reporter. It's great to meet you, I think we really – "
"Ah, Kara Danvers. The newest addition to the roster, and yet one who has her own private office on the 21st floor," Lena interrupts.

Summary
After the dedication of the Bartlet Presidential Library, C.J. and Toby meet up for drinks and discuss their past. Toby reveals a long-held secret to her about the shuttle leak investigation. And then...they need to face their feelings.
"I should let you get some sleep."
She wasn't ready for this. He couldn't leave. Yet somehow she found herself nodding. He paused next to her as he passed, and his face went through several transformations before he asked:
"Do you want me to tell you my room number?"
An impossible question from an impossible man. She looked straight up at him. “And what on earth am I supposed to say to that?”
“You’re supposed to...answer. The question.”

Summary
They both get really, really drunk and Louise cries by the pool, and when Madeline tugs her upstairs so no one else sees, Louise turns around in the stairwell and kisses Madeline so long she sees stars.

Summary
The thing is, she’s pretty sure what it is. She’s probably just lucky it didn’t happen to her about Maverick. When she was thirteen and her mom bought The Hard Deck, Admiral Simpson came in on re-opening night, drank two rye whiskeys, and became the object of her fantasies for three years running. It’s just – her dad is at best absent, at worst overbearingly present and hypercritical. She’s got access to the internet and a disturbingly all-knowing TikTok algorithm to guide her; it’s not hard to self-diagnose.
