- trinity let dennis drive to work once and never again ("you act like you're afraid of the other cars" "i am!" "oh my god.")

- they watch a lot of dumb reality tv -- dennis is partial to home renovation shows and trinity loves survivor. they are certified dating show haters, which is why they've seen every season of love is blind

- dennis isn't even making avocado toast. he steals them to put in salads. trinity thinks this should be a felony

- he trims her hair for her. she returns the favor by insisting he go to a real barbershop, because his mom shaved his head at home until he left, then he kept cutting it himself until she made him stop

- every time they get sunday off they make cinnamon rolls from scratch (once they wake up at noon)

- they are MASTERS of the "we'll talk later" stare. princess & perlah get in a fight in tagalog? robby makes a weird remark to mckay? patient comments about javadi checking out a new nurse? they have locked eyes. doesn't matter if they're three rooms away from each other. they are communicating telepathically

- their place has like. two tiny windows. it's a dark little cave and dennis tries to grow herbs on the windowsills anyway. trinity thinks it's stupid until he starts making homemade pasta sauce with his tiny basil harvests. she keeps telling him it's dumb but sometimes comes home with new planters. she likes how gently he handles the roots when he pulls them up to repot.

Summary:

The slamming door rattles the clock on the kitchen wall, the second hand twitching momentarily, but invariably it continues its march forward in time. Javier's heavy footsteps echo menacingly in the relative silence as he advances down the long hallway to where Joel waits. A trickle of sweat rolls from the base of Joel's head down the line of his neck until it gets absorbed into the already damp collar of his shirt.

This is my breakdown of what Joel may have been thinking during the scene between him and his father (Javier) at the beginning of season 2, episode 6, "The Price."

(this scene is why I watch this movie on Valentine's Day every year)
