For the attraction and chemistry that they have both been denying will flare brighter the longer they are together, and Angie will not have as much restrain as Gary does. But now they have another complication, for there are rules against them fraternizing and one or both could lose their jobs too.

But when Drew pulls a “bro favor,” he finds himself up to his helmet in trouble.
