OKAY i was gonna reply to your other comment but instead i'll hit it here! i was also curious as to when he was in nyc; tracey's old life up there involved rubbing elbows with the same sort of socialite folks his parents may have been running with so depending, they could have known of each other at least? i hold no responsibility for her being a neurotic mess if they hooked up in florida though because she has a whole mess of issues related to flings but is also not emotionally prepared to handle real dating either? so she's basically a huge mess.
