I originally intended Laurel to be Kate’s best friend from the old neighborhood. So, the fact that they haven’t interacted since last July is kind of embarrassing. I’m trying to fix that by giving them more time together. In the meantime, some catching up is required.

I won’t tell you what happened at Brian’s event beyond what has been already shown. But, Janet’s obsession with Brian is well known, and if she was there, it will be all she’ll talk about.
