After a visit with [Nancy, Jenny, the girls] and conversation around someone who was not present & her "surprising" new fiancé, Catherine ponders the big questions of class prejudice and "ordinary racism".
She realizes she may have internalized them to some extent, and nothing else prevents her from being with Vincent - or Vincent from knowing that she still has unnamed fears. (Resolution ensues!) |

(WFOL QoD9 gave me the idea)
Teenager Vincent reads Yeats' Leda and the Swan around the same time the incident with Lisa occurs. His first major crisis is colored by nightmares involving the poem's imagery. IMO it would be interesting to retell the crisis with this twist, and the moment of healing, 2 decades later, with Catherine (maybe after a conversation has her poking at his unease around that poem) |

Jacob, Devin, will-he-won't-he acknowledge fatherhood? Early years, Devin's a toddler, V a baby. A legit therapist stumbles into the Tunnels and has to stay for a while (could be an injury, like C's in the Pilot, or flight from a violent psycho) AND THEY HELP JACOB WORK THROUGH HIS ISSUES! Canon divergence, may continue into D and V's childhoods or have a quick "hopeful ending". Fix-it for Devin, may change a few things for V but should let V and C meet in due time. |
