The day after the discussion with Shanna, Vincent needed to talk to someone. It wasn't as if he and Kristoff had had the typical brotherly relationship, and certainly not in the context of being Americans, but he couldn't think of anyone else to bring this particular situation to. Even if they'd pointedly tried to avoid talking about Vincent's sex life in the past.

They'd been scheduled for a science lesson anyway, so Vincent is expecting his brother to be available when he arrives at the lab. He's not quite distraught, but he's clearly uneasy.

It had taken a little time, with the new baby to deal with, but Tony had managed to develop a device to help track down the stolen Stark tech. Four devices had been made and one given to each of the kids to use. Though Tony had told them he wanted them going in pairs to watch each other’s backs.

Anya and Misha were sent out together and Justin and Toni were paired up for this mission. The next one may be different.

Anya and Misha were sent toward Montana while Justin and Toni were sent toward Arizona. They were unsure of who exactly had the tech, just that the tech was there.

Mel was in the temple, using Jordan's modifications to Rock Band to sing ABBA's "When All Is Said and Done."
It was an Anni-Frid song. She loved Frida's singing best.
There was, in fact, some grooving going on. Foot-tapping. Hip-wiggling. Mel didn't need the words at the bottom of the screen, so her eyes were closed.

"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." JFK

In America today is a day for being thankful for the things in people's lives. Today was a day to celebrate family, friends, prosperity and health with food, family and friends. It is a time to reflect on what is important us and to recognize the gratitude we hold for having those things in our lives.

Vincent knocks at the door to Shanna's apartment. The conversation he needed to have with her could have been done over the phone, but he had an armful of dvds he wanted to loan her anyway. A mix of nature specials and social documentaries, along with the pop culture. It was rather refreshing to watch her take in the world at large. He remembered what it had been like for him when he escaped-- ...when someone helped him escape Latveria.
