Meanwhile, across town, a professor from the college notes something that makes him smile in the morning paper. Strange: I did it in their names etiquette achieved! You only get married once, best do it properly. Morse, somehow not ripping his own skin off: Technically the bride’s parents are supposed to post that, so… Strange: The engagement announcement just came out, and it WOULD have happened sooner if a certain best man had told me this was on the list of wedding tasks. Strange: Thanks man! You should come if you’re still in town when it happens! This convo is a little awkward, but not as much as the one happening out in the bullpen, where Jakes has just reunited with and congratulated Strange on his upcoming wedding. More impressively, Morse knew, but never told anyone, because he’s a discreet guy like that.
