– Morning at Monica’s Apartment
(holding clipboard)
"Okay, no backing out this time. Swimsuits, towels, snacks, emotional stability — everyone ready?" She asked
Chandler (holding sunscreen like a weapon)
"I swear, if someone cries or bleeds this time, I’m moving to Alaska." He said
Ronnie (zipping up her bag)
"Not today. I brought tampons, chocolate, and war paint. We’re doing this." She told them
Jake(grinning)
"She’s armed. She’s dangerous. She’s unstoppable. She's beautiful "he said

– AT THE BEACH
Cut to the gang spread out on towels. Monica is applying SPF 50 to Rachel’s back. Joey’s already face down in the sand. Phoebe is passing out organic seaweed chips.
"These taste like salty regret." Ronnie said
"That’s the flavor profile." Phoebe told her
Ronnie steps away, barefoot in the warm sand. Jake follows. They walk toward the dunes.

– Dune Talk (Ronnie + Jake)
They sit in the tall grass, wind soft around them. Quiet. Close but not clinging.
"You know what’s weird? I’m not scared of the ocean anymore." She said
"You were scared of the ocean?" He asked her
"Not really. Just… scared of being still. Of letting things in." She told him
He asked her again "And now?"
Ronnie (looking at him)
"Now I feel like I can let good things in without waiting for them to disappear." She said
He gently brushes her hair behind her ear.
"That includes me?" He said
Ronnie (smiling)
"Especially you." She told him
They kiss — soft, sunlit, no rush. Just real.

– Group Chaos Ensues
Joey has built a sandcastle and declared himself king. Chandler has a bright red sunburn. Monica is forcing everyone to reapply lotion.
"It’s official. My skin is cooked. Like a sad lobster." Said Chandler
"Want aloe?" Rachel said
"I want justice." He says
Ronnie and Jake rejoin the group. Ronnie picks up Joey’s shovel and adds a heart in the sand near their towels. Jake draws a J+R under it.
" Aw. Hormones with handwriting. Cute."Phoebe said
