"Have fun, okay?" Evan says, and there's something in his voice that makes Tat run a few steps back to him, edging Jeff and Dan aside in order to give her brother a huge, Kaminski-style hug.

"Okay, you guys be good, I'll see you in a few hours." She gives Evan one more quick kiss and then she and Brian are heading out the door, almost running, their laughter floating back into the silent living room.
