Summary
He knows she's not her. He does. He tells himself one hundred times in front of the mirror after he sees her for the first time. She’s not Shannon. The hair’s all wrong. What he’s doing is wrong, he’s using her to fix some broken part of him that’s stuck in the middle of the street, lying on the road of the pedestrian crossing. So he knows it’s wrong, but he can’t make himself stop. When she asks him out for dinner he doesn’t say no. In fact, he says yes faster than he can even process her question. She smiles at him, her eyes crinkle at the edges exactly like Shannon. She tells him she can’t wait. He nods, smiles back. He can’t wait either. He ignores the way his insides squirm, begging him to think about his actions. He’s done thinking. This is his wife! How could he ever say no?
(Or Eddie Diaz makes bad decisions, but he can't help it, it's his wife.)

Summary
After the tsunami, Buck gets offered a once in a lifetime opportunity. He hadn't told anyone at the 118, nor his sister, that he finished out some college classes and earned a few degrees. He'd done them on a whim, anyway. Deciding to use his hyperfixations for something constructive at Chris' insistence. Pepa and Abuela offer support since they basically adopted him into their family, regardless of what Eddie was or wasn't doing.
Which is how he ends up going to England for most of a year and following the trail of the legend of King Arthur in search of the origination of the story from oral traditions. With only a few people in on the secret. Granted, he's not sure if Chim will be able to make it very long, but he's happy to give him the chance.
