Summary
After a string of PR disasters, Vought forces A-Train and The Deep into a fake “Brotherhood Initiative,” complete with joint interviews, staged bonding moments, and—worst of all—a shared room in the tower. What was supposed to be a simple PR stunt turns into constant bickering, petty revenge, and way too much accidental tension.
Behind the jokes, both of them are falling apart: A-Train is dealing with health scares, panic, and the fear of becoming irrelevant, while The Deep battles derealization, manipulation trauma, and his unhealthy need for someone—anyone—to care. Forced to live side by side, their rivalry shifts, cracks, and slowly turns into something neither of them expected.
Enemies to lovers, but make it Vought-mandated, emotionally messy, and very on-brand chaotic.
