    Summary

    A deep, calm voice with a British accent came through Alex’s headset:
“This is Military One, requesting emergency landing.”
    Alex perked up.
Oh. That sounded like fun.
    The tower responded immediately:
“All runways are full. Stand by.”
    Wait—what? Were they seriously about to bump him from landing so some military-sounding mystery jet could cut in line?
    Before thinking it through (which was really more of a hobby than a habit), Alex keyed the mic:
“Wait, hold up—I was next to land!”
    The Brit came back, smooth and smug:
“Yes, well, we’re military. You’ll have to wait.”
    Excuse you?

    Or Alex is a commercial pilot and Henry is flying for the military. They meet over communication channels.

    Summary

    [Alison Hammond appears now, “crying” into a gingham cloth as Paul Hollywood follows her, ringing a loud bell. They pass Alex, paying him no mind.]

     

    “I didn’t mean to, Paul! I swear!” Alison cries as she wipes beneath her eyes.

    “Shame!” Paul replies, ringing the bell once more.

     

    [Prue Leith follows behind Paul, shaking her head slowly. Alex stops her and nods in their direction.]

     

    “What did she do?” Alex asks in a stage whisper.

    “She called a macaroon a macaron,” Prue says back.

     

    [Prue follows Alison and Paul off the screen, leaving Alex looking after them, terror on his face. He turns to face the camera and swallows loudly before giving a grin that’s more of a grimace.]

     

    “W-welcome to the Great British B-baking Show,” he greets before bringing the phone back up to his ear. “Noel, you have to come back. I’m not going to make it.”

    Summary

    “Objection!” Alex said, leaning forward with a grin so wide it looked almost predatory. “That’s just bullshit.”
