[He checks his house only to see that it's just a plot of land that hasn't been developed yet. He wasn't hallucinating when he thought he saw a younger version of older adult he knows. He sighs internally and starts towards the Avenger's tower to have a possibly uncomfortable conversation with his parents. On the way, he makes a filter so he can get a better idea of the town as it is at present.]

[21+ and "Future Kids (of all ages)"]
Sup, I'm Grant.

[This town is nothing like he's used to. The people in it are from far into the future. The way they act, the way they speak, the way they think -- it's all extremely different. He needs to make his presence known but in a smart way. Today he'll use some bait and see if it works.]

[People who are proud to be white]
Can anyone see this? I've noticed a disturbing trend in this town where many people have to mute themselves and their identity for fear of backlash. I'm here to tell you that you are not alone. It's okay to be white. It's okay to be proud of being who you are.

My name is Helmut Zemo and I am proud to be white. Who is brave enough to say they're also proud.

No sneaking around! Anybody who reaped the benefits of the couple program who hasn't stayed a couple has broken the trust system. Couples who do not receive a card this week will be forced to return their benefits to the state indefinitely. Furthermore, couples who do receive a card will be forced to return their benefits to the state until 11/22/2021 or until they are wed, whichever is sooner. Failure to commit to the program will void all incentives for the couple. Any couple who receives a warning from this point forward will have one week to resolve their issues before facing disqualification.

[She's been seeing more of him and his wife than ever. He's punishing her for dating Tom. After she does her shoots for the day she leaves a message for Bucky]
Hey. I know you're probably still avoiding me so you probably won't answer... if you even listen to this at all, but I need to get this off my chest.

I just think it's really fucked up. I feel used, I feel lied to, I feel discarded. You told me when Dot came that things weren't serious. That you were just friends. You said you liked me and I believed you and I would have given you everything. I would have waited forever, and I get it, you're punishing me for this but I asked you before I said yes. I asked you and I was going to put you first above Tom or the money or anything. You said it was fine then you bailed on me to take your wife to our spot and it hurts.

You've hurt me more than anybody else ever has, you may not have hit me or abused me, but you broke my trust and I can't take that from you. Everything everyone else did to me would have been fine, I expected it from them, but you were my hero. You were my knight in shining armor and you let me down.

I know it's over now. I tried to get back at you by sleeping with him after I saw what you did, but I know all I did was make it so that you'd never come back. I got so mad and I wanted to hurt you like you hurt me, but all I did was hurt us. I don't know if we could ever get back after what I did or after what you did.

The truth is, I don't know if I'll ever stop loving you. I know who you are and you're always going to be my hero. Even now seeing how cruel you can be, I still love you. Now you see what I can be too. I don't know if you can love that... or if anyone could. But I'm sorry, and I hate that you made me do this. If you don't tell me what I need to hear from you, I'm staying with Tom. He'll never be you, but I think he can love me... this is the chance. Our chance. So if you're still listening... if you listened at all. I just need to know if you still love me.

So just a general question... who's side are we on with that whole murder the other night? Because I feel like that shit was probably illegal.

Ieisha
I'm off tomorrow, wanna do something?

Dottie
Babe, I left my wallet at home can you run it to me? I'm starving, I was gonna go to that new Chinese place that opened up a few weeks back for lunch.

Cops and CSOs (Cop significant others)
So we doing Secret Santa or what?

[Ieisha only got here a few days ago but this house feels so cold it's unsettling. Some of the girls are traumatized, other girls are in prison. She knows what she has to do.

She orders takeout from the local pizza joint. Then she turns on some chick flicks. She's in her jammies and she calls everyone down]
Okay ladies, it's time for a girls night. I have pizza, movies, booze, and brownies. I'm tired of living with strangers.
