[Takes place the morning after Zachary gets dropped on Zach's doorstep.]

"Good morning, baby," Chris says. He's been in Zach's kitchen a while, cooking up a storm.

Zach's still looking sleepy and ruffled, turning in a full circle around the kitchen. "You cooked. A lot."

"Zachary's going to need lots and lots of protein," Chris tells him.

"Zachary's going to need a stomach pump and an exorcism... but the protein's a good start," Zach says. ( ''You made breakfast for my previously drunk now very hung over best friend who's probably upstairs drooling on my guest room pillows right now? That's... kind of the sweetest thing ever.'' )
