There was some insanity going on in Fandom this week, and after John and Gavin had been assaulted by their visitor, they'd parted. And gotten a change of wardrobe

When he'd left earlier, Baby had been sure she'd never see him again. She'd go back home, start at Holyoke and live her life. Her boring life. Oh, how could she go back to that when she'd experienced so much here?
All she wanted to do was dance! She wanted to dance with him, slink around his body and just EXPERIENCE the life she'd never known was out there.
But, Johnny was back and she only had eyes for him. He was saying words, saying something and then taking her hand and she went with him. She'd go anywhere with him.
She was bravest woman he'd ever known. Johnny led her to the stage, also known as the common room kitchen table and spoke loudly into the nonexistent microphone.
"Sorry about the disruption, folks, but I always do the last dance of the season. This year, somebody told me not to." John paused dramatically. Three guesses who that asshat was.
"So I'm gonna do my kind of dancin' with a great partner who's not only a terrific dancer but somebody who's taught me that there are people willing to stand up for other people no matter what it costs them." He got a little choked up at that.

There were so many people out there. Baby tried not to let herself get nervous, gripping Johnny's hand like a lifeline. They were all looking at her and, for a moment, she felt like the ugliest girl in the room. But, Johnny.
Oh, Johnny.
He was speaking so kindly about her and, with the nonexistent spotlight on them, with the audience just waiting for them to mess up, she felt like she could do just about anything.
She could even carry a watermelon WHILE they danced. She turned to look at him adoringly for a minute, memorizing his words. They would be with her forever.

Baby didn't recognize Ben but that didn't mean she couldn't try and connect with him. Johnny had said they had to play to their audience, after all. Of course, Baby preferred the private dancing with Johnny but she knew they couldn't do that all time.
So, Baby sashayed over to Ben, flipping his skirt (yes, skirt) at Ben and giving him a bright, big smile. Maybe if the audience loved them, Johnny could keep his job! He needed this job!

Gavin was going to kill himself slowly tomorrow.
