==Summary ==
Sammie is sitting on the edge of Stanley's bed. Stanley is in his closet with the door shut. There seems to be a commotion from inside before he emerges from his closet, dressed in a brown and green plaid suit with a bolo tie. Stanley asks Sammie what she thinks of his outfit. Sammie hesitantly asks where he's going again and Stanley informs her they're going to the Crab Shack. Sammie says the outfit is a little too formal. Stanley sighs and closes himself in the closet again.
Stanley - for the first time in 20 years - is going on a date and he's asked Sammie to help him pick out an outfit. Sammie calls through the door that he should look for a nice button down and pants. Stanley asks what qualifies as 'nice pants.' Sammie suggests nice khakis or some black or navy dress pants, then asks Stanley if he even owns dress clothes. Stanley says he'll let her know if he finds any. 
When Stanley opens the closet again, he's wearing a plaid button down with brown tweed pants. Sammie tells him he's not sure the patterns work together and Stanley gripes about this being easier in high school when all he had to do was wear his letterman jacket. Sammie asks him if that's the last time he's been on a date and Stanley says he went on dates when he was married with his wife. Sammie asks to take a look in Stanley's closet and the two swap places. 
Sammie looks through Stanley's closet and remarks about how he needs to go shopping. Then, asks how him and Holland ended up agreeing to go on a date together. Stanley says that he's known Holland for some time, having worked with her on cases before, and they happened to both be in the waiting room at the doctor's office at the same time. They talked about things happening around Thornvale, now that Jolene is in the know about the truth behind things, and talked about their kids - both having boys around the same age. Sammie asks if Jolene knows about Gideon being a fish boy and Stanley says he thought it would be important for her to know, especially since she knows now that he's a dragon person. Stanley adds he's surprised Bjorn brought Holland into the loop but it makes sense. 
Stanley switches topics and asks Sammie if she had the 'l-word' conversation with Oliver. Sammie turns pink and admits they briefly talked about it on the airplane. Stanley asks if she said the l-word and Sammie quietly confirms she did. Stanley smiles. Sammie finds a white short-sleeved, collared shirt, with thin stripes and boats and a nice pair of jeans. She walks back out and hands them to Stanley. Stanley, once again, goes back into his closet to change. When he comes out and Sammie confirms it looks nice, he asks if he should shave and Sammie says he's fine. Sammie assures him that everything will be fine and wishes him luck before he leaves. 
Sammie doesn't believe that Stanley is going to chicken out of his date, but decides to follow him anyway, just in case. She carefully follows out of sight and eventually spots him getting out of his car at the Crab Shack, in a touristy part of West. Sammie watches carefully before Holland approaches Stanley. She's wearing a purple sundress and has her hair down. Sammie, still in her Jeep, suddenly notices two young boys crouched down, hiding beside her car who also seem to be watching Stanley and Jolene. Sammie honks the horn on her Jeep and the boys immediately run down the street to hide behind another car. 
Sammie quietly exits her car and then crouches down to join the two boys by the car they're hiding behind. She quietly asks them if something's wrong and the older of the two boys informs Sammie that they're just watching their mom to protect her and make sure she's okay while she's on her date. He tells her they're supposed to be in the arcade nearby. Sammie tells them they don't need to worry, that she knows Stanley and he's a good guy. The boys seem appeased by this and Sammie gives them another ten bucks for the arcade. The boys run off back to the arcade and Sammie gets back into her Jeep.
