Dont Get Me Wrong, I Absolutely Love The Possibility Of A Something There Comparison To Summer Nights

don’t get me wrong, i absolutely love the possibility of a something there comparison to summer nights from grease. but i also love the idea of making it sorta like everyday from hsm2.

picture this: an open stage. seb on the piano. gina gets pushed to center stage similarly to kourtney in 1x08 and is asked to sing a song from the show in order to test the microphone system/for another reason because maybe ash and ricky are busy brainstorming ideas. she sings the first verse of something there.

suddenly, she hears another voice singing the beast's part. ej walks onto the stage from the other side, microphone in hand. he goes to gina and they stand inches apart. they stare into each others eyes, ej takes her hand, and as gina begins to sing new, and a bit alarming... the lights go down and they are the only people visible. like during nini's audition in 1x01 or lily's solo during belle in 2x02, the camera spins around showing them from all different angles.

suddenly the lights turn back on and everyone on the stage is in absolute shock, their mouths open.

He knows, without knowing…

Something I love is how EJ knows Gina’s needs without her telling him.

As we all know, because of life circumstances Gina is incredibly independent. Given this, she’s not used to people doing things for her. That’s why gestures like Ricky singing a song for her melts her heart in S1, it’s someone genuinely thinking of her.

Enters EJ.

Not only does he do these beautiful gestures, but they also align with her needs at the moment.

EJ buys her the plane ticket, allowing her to grow roots and form bonds with this group of people that love her.

EJ asks her how she is feeling, at a time where she is not sure if the people around her care (especially Ricky).

Picks her up at the airport, gives her a granola bar, and offers her to bring her back the next day. This comes after an entire day where she’s not only asking for a sign but also reveals that she’s waiting for the right guy to show up.

EJ might not know it, but he has a deep connection with Gina.

He’s the boy that knows without knowing.

Right?!?! But I did see Jamie was on his phone when standing in the back of the theater and looking down at his phone before he talked to Ej. Idk why he would call Mazzara or if it’s connected 🤷‍♀️

okay but real question -- who called Mr. Mazzara??
