#i absolutely think richard would have fucked up again in a potential 5x01

[ladysophiebeckett]

this is what i think would have happened had there been a 5th season:

caroline was for sure gonna run out on randy to be with richard

richard would have ruined it by assuming that caroline would still move to italy to be with him and caroline would have been like 'no??? ur insane??'

so now caroline has officially ran out on 2 weddings but her parents say it was 3 bc they still count richard

richard is forced by del to come back to work for him bc del owns richard's work and starts putting it on greeting cards for a new market (funeral cards) and it's booming.

so now u have richard and caroline both working in the same building, making greeting cards. and its awkward.

single father richard\stefano plot line where caroline hangs out with them and strangers assume she's the mother. and its super awkward but so sweet bc richard will look at her like he used to when he was pining in s1 but caroline doesn't notice.

randy sues caroline for leaving him at the altar plotline and she has to go back to pestigo to settle it and richard flies out after her bc its his fault that she's getting sued. caroline settles it by selling the house to randy as symbol of her letting go of things and learning to move on. richard overhears this and he feels bad bc he remembers that she bought it when they were still together and she wanted a future with him. its a sad episode. u get it. u see my vision.

annie and del get engaged somewhere but they get married by xmas. caroline is both the maid of honor and del's best man. charlie rollerblades into their wedding ceremony right as the 'forever hold your peace' bit. (insert 90's gay joke insinuating charlie was for del). ceremony continues. fast forward to reception where richard's tricked into giving a speech and he brings up sincere amore while looking at caroline. episode ends with them kissing. (xmas reconciliation)

this is just covers the first half of a never s5 but obviously it ends with them together,bc duh. that was always gonna happen.

#caroline in the city #i absolutely think richard would have fucked up again in a potential 5x01 #like it was very brave of him to finally fight for her at the end of s4 but he still had a lot of growing up to do
