Summary
In which there are egregious references to Romantic Comedies, Dan Rydell is an utter cliche, and Casey McCall is just trying to land a man.

Summary
Dan doesn’t have a car in Dallas, but once he and Casey become thick as thieves (so, pretty much immediately) Casey offers to give him a ride to the office each morning. Sometimes, he lets Dan drive.
On those days, Dan gets to pick the music. Casey complains loudly about that, but with a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Dan brings his cigar box of cassette tapes, stashing it in the back seat.
(Or, 6 times Dan and Casey discussed music during Dan's internship in the summer of 1988.)

Summary
If you were to ask Casey what happened, he would tell you this story:
Shortly after The Divorce (it is important, in Casey’s stories, that you can hear the capitalization—he assigns emphasis to things, sometimes nouns, vaguely Germanic in his insistence on this appropriate apportioning of weight), he was staying at Danny’s. He was sleeping on Danny’s couch because that was the thing one did when one was undergoing a divorce.

Summary
“I don’t know,” said Kim to Dave, on their side of the booth, “it’s just inevitable, isn’t it?”
“What is?” asked Casey. He had a nice, quiet buzz on; Anthony’s was seasonally appropriate, if a touch juvenile, with black tinsel draped everywhere and a skeleton in a corner behind the bar. Jack must be bumping into it constantly.
“That if you know somebody long enough, sooner or later you’re going to get a crush on them.”

Summary
It’s about remembering. It’s about ritual. It’s about the search for home. Three Passover seders in the lives of Dan and Casey.

Summary
It wasn’t that he didn’t know. Everyone knew, he thought sometimes; depending on his mood the thought was either bitter and mean, or indulgently affectionate.

Summary
“I’m not saying the leaves aren’t beautiful,” said Dan, “I’m saying they’re beautiful in October, not mid-January.”
It was definitely Casey’s fault. Dan had decided to remind him of that fact, aggressively, every four or five miles, or in other words every hour or so. The road was not pretty. The snow, heaped into piles on either side of the road, was getting freshly bedecked by new snow with a rapidity he found more than a little alarming.
“Look,” Casey said defensively, huddled over the steering wheel and squinting out into the mess, “no one said you had to come.”

Summary
“Daniel,” said Iris, “you’ve got to come.”
“I do? Why?” He grinned, tucking the phone under his ear as he slid open the door to the deck. “Are you sure?”
“Daniel,” she said plaintively.
“Fine, fine, of course. I will come and see your art, and I will be suitably impressed and murmur very profound things about it.”

Dan, Casey, a huge crush and a coffee machine.

Summary
A Manhattan wasn’t Dan’s favorite drink, but it was a classic. It was familiar and comforting in its familiarity with its thick, sickly sweetness.
The maraschino cherry sat in the glass once he’d made it most of the way through, a neon blob, stem standing boldly upright. He toyed with it as he watched Casey arguing with Dana at a table, faces red and hands flying in heated gestures.

Casey's great-aunt is throwing a house party: is it going to be a home run or a strike out for Danny and Casey?

Summary
Dan liked Las Vegas. He liked the swirling crowds, he liked the women dressed to the nines, the constant glitter of excitement. He loved the pure, unmatched satisfaction of sitting at a game of poker among the highly skilled and immensely talented regardless of whether he won or lost, although if pressed he would have had to admit that he preferred winning.
So when he got off the plane at McCarran, he was already feeling as airy and expansive as the bubbles frothing up in a flute of champagne. He had a suit carefully rolled in his luggage and a song in his heart. What more could a city boy need?

Summary
Casey tips his head back against the bed and turns to look at him, eyes a little hazy and smile lopsided.
Dan’s breath catches in his chest as their gaze holds for too long a beat. He wants nothing more than to lean forward. Instead, he clears his throat and forces his gaze away, turning to stare at the ceiling.
“This one of your mixes?” Casey murmurs. Dan totally forgot he had music on, R.E.M. streaming through his tape deck.
“Yep.”
Dan is hyper aware of every single place they’re touching. Which is basically shoulder to hip. He squeezes his eyes shut.
(Or, snapshots of Dan Rydell’s life from 1983 to 2002, as told through 19 music-inspired vignettes.)

Summary
The view out of Casey’s picture window had never been what attracted him to that condo. He had bought the place on the strength of its location (close enough to work that his commute wasn’t a nightmare), price (slightly under budget despite the HOA fees), and two bedrooms (one for Charlie and one for Casey).
So he wasn’t expecting the view to soothe his soul when he stared out. He needed somewhere to look, and it happened to be there.
