Wednesday, November 7; approximately 5 PM; Brains' lab

Tin-Tin gazed at the information on her computer screen, but her mind wasn't on what she was seeing. A vague thought had been percolating in the back her mind for the past three days, and only now was surfacing. Mulling it over, she decided that the idea was a good one. She began turning toward the other person in the room.

"Brains, I have an idea." "Tin-Tin, I have an idea."

He was facing her.

They both smiled, and he said, "Ladies first."

Her smile got a bit wider, then she grew more serious and said, "Ever since we talked to Lena, I've been thinking. . ."

"...that she should come to Tracy Island. . ."

"...for the wedding." She paused and looked at him, realization suddenly dawning. "You too?"

He grinned. "Sure. Why not? In fact, I think we should go see your father and Lisa and suggest that they invite her."

"I agree. The worst they could say is 'no'. Since you seem to be finished for the day, also, why don't we go see them now?"

"Just what I was thinking." They both turned back to their terminals, to save and shut down for the day. Then he stood up and held out his hand. "Shall we?"

"We shall." Smiling mischievously, she took his hand and stood up. They headed to the monorail, and the Villa.

When they arrived, they found both Kyrano and Lisa in the kitchen, along with Emily, who looked up as they entered and smiled at them. "It's not often you two arrive together, and both before dinner. It won't be long before it's ready."

"Actually, we came to suggest something to my father and Lisa," Tin-Tin replied.

"Really?" Lisa put down the dishes she'd just gotten out and walked over to them, joined almost immediately by her fiancé. "And what would that be?"

"We'd like to suggest one more guest for your wedding," Brains said.

"Who?"

Brains and Tin-Tin looked at each other, then back at the couple and said, "Lena."

Kyrano and Lisa looked questioningly at each other for a moment, then she smiled and nodded. He turned back to his daughter and said, "We think that's a wonderful idea. I am somewhat ashamed that I didn't think of her before now."

"I'll see to it that an invitation is sent to her right away," Lisa added. "It'll be so nice to see her again."

"That's a wonderful idea!" exclaimed Emily. "If she accepts -- and I have no reason to think that she won't -- she can stay in the guest room here, while the others will be in the Round House. I'm so glad you two thought of it."

"So are we," Tin-Tin replied. As she and Brains turned to go, she added, "We'll see you at dinner."

As they walked out the door, the others heard Brains say, "We'll be able to introduce her to her namesake. What did she say when you told her that we'd named a kitten after her?"

"Me? I thought you told her!"

The rest of the conversation was lost as the door closed behind them.
