Reed had forgotten Susan's birthday. Again.
But then he remembered all on his own! And promptly forgot. But HERBIE reminded him. And then he forgot again-- the third time, when Johnny reminded him, it seemed to stick. That was when Reed had the idea that they should all get together and cook a meal for Sue in appreciation for her hard work, patience, and generally being Sue for another year.
Reed, for his part, was allowing science to do the cooking for him, and carefully measured and scraped every ingredient into the bowl, following the recipe as if it were the instruction manual to the Hadron Collider. He may not have been the world's greatest cook-- but he was certainly one of its greatest scientists; and what was cooking if not science anyway?
"Johnny. Could you please set the oven to exactly 375 degrees Fahrenheit, please?" He asked, pulling a set of goggles down over his eyes before he began to agitate whisk the ingredients together. Safety first, after all.
