Sam and Brayden sit at the bar in Molly's having a drink (well Sam is have a water due to her not feeling well. She just wanted to take a breathe and talk with her partner) when the brunette says, "I never got to thank you the other day for coming to my rescue and punching that guy in the face who pushed me"
"Hey, I wasn't gonna have anyone mess with my partner. No way" Brayden says, making them both chuckle, "So, can I, uhm, tell you something?"
