Summary
Tim and Lucy, still leading separate lives after their breakup, suddenly find themselves working together as training officers for Mid Wilshire’s newest rookies. Although the job slowly leads them back towards one another, an unexpected find threatens to undo it all. Will the magic of Christmas send them their own private miracle (yes!), or will they have to begin the new year alone (no!)?

“Have a good shift.”He nodded in thanks, screwing up his face against the feelings that were leaking from every pore of his being. “You too.”
“Tim?” She took a quick breath, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Thanks for recommending me to Grey. It’s good to be trying something new.”

Summary
Lucy's thoughts in the aftermath of Tim's decision to break them up.
*
The necklace and the 17st award and the KIA radio. Pancake mix and rum and vilely dusty orange protein bars.Their shared thermos.
Kojo’s birthday card.
Her own moonstone ring.
All mementos of the space he’d filled in her life like a gently flowing waterfall. Soft marshes along an ox-bow river. Sandbanks in a lagoon, taking up residence in the spaces she’d ignored as tricky puzzle pieces. Jigsaw blanks outlined and cordoned off while she focused on the familiar forms of places known and well-worn with routine.

Summary
Well.
This was complete bullshit.
Lucy stared at the palms of her hands, watching her own blood trickle and drip into the abyss of utter nothingness, and she let out a growl of frustration.
BULL. SHIT.
*
In the ethereal realm of the afterlife, two souls find themselves bound by a shared tragedy: both unjustly taken by the same ruthless hand. Now trapped together in a shadowy purgatory, they harbour a mutual desire for revenge against their perpetrator. Yet, amidst their quest for vengeance, an unexpected bond blossoms between them, weaving threads of affection through their spectral existence. As they navigate the delicate balance between retribution and enchantment, they discover that in the realm of the dead, even the most powerful emotions can transcend the boundaries of life and death.

Summary
Tim asks Angela to be his Best Woman. Her speech proves she was the right woman for the job.
*
"These two have been through their fair share - more than fair, even - of troubles. Neither of you-” she turned to wave her notecards at both Lucy and Tim “-have seen the other when one of you is missing. And it’s a testament to your flair for thrill-seeking that this has happened more than once.”
“Bad-Luck magnets!” Smitty yelled, from the back of the hall.
Angela allowed a brief chuckle to pass through the crowd before she became solemn again.
“But seriously. You’ve come through the worst things life could throw at you - anyone’s worst fears - and you’ve come out stronger for it. We’ve all witnessed it. Tim, I know you would move heaven and earth for Lucy; and hell would freeze over before Lucy would leave Tim behind. It’s inspirational. It’s powerful. And it’s a little scary, not gonna lie.”

Summary
Popping the neat line of tape, Tim unwrapped the paper and lifted the lid off a box to reveal a printout. It was a reservation for two for a scotch whisky tour, including a private dinner and a round of tastings. He noted the date and time: December 30th, 4:00 p.m.
“Nice,” he said with a smile. “Thank you. Let’s hope that we can both get off shift in time for it.”
“Yeah, well, we’d have to leave pretty early if we wanna make it there.” She bit her lip and motioned to the box. “The rest might help with that.”
Intrigued, he set the paper down and moved to the next. Another printout, but this time with the British Airways logo stamped across the top: tickets to Scotland for the 26th through the 2nd of January.
“This is— Luce, that’s two days away.”
“Actually one, remember?” she reminded him with a grin.
Tim and Lucy ring in the New Year with a trip away from LA — 5,146 miles away, to be exact.

Summary
They turn in perfect synchrony, instinct and muscle memory kicking in as two sets of eyes scan the parking garage, taking in their surroundings like it’s second nature.
It’s blissfully empty. Not that that should even matter. After all, there’s nothing particularly scandalous about Tim walking her to her car after shift. They’ve done it about a million times before without so much as a second thought.
But it’s different now, intimate in a way it never was before.
(or—Lucy and Tim go on their first date. And their second. And then, finally, their third.)

Chenford and Lucy's thoughts before their two canon first dates. And then the comparison to their third - FINAL - first date.

Summary
He feels like he’s existing outside of his body, like he’s somehow been plucked off the streets of Los Angeles and thrown back to the hot sand and rolling foothills of the Iraqi desert. He can almost feel the heat of the sun beating down on his body as his mind is playing a horrific slideshow, so real it feels like he’s reliving every mistake he’s made, every transgression he’s committed, and every secret he thought he’d buried.

Summary
He knows he’s not the problem here, knows he’s entirely supportive of Lucy in everything she does. This whole thing is just an elaborate way to prove it to her.
So when the machine starts flashing and beeping beside them, the sure, confident smile drops his face in an instant. He turns to look at the laptop, staring it down like it’s somehow betrayed him.

Summary
Tim is hurt. Lucy is anxious and confused. And so was I, so this is my dialogue-heavy take on a post-episode for 6x01 to try to process it all (I'm sure Chenford does not need this many words to communicate, but I did).
