So we were in our lil pool at home, and an infinity or little plastic balls were hanging around because my bro loves them.
Out of joking I say "here's the Tracys" while I take a group of balls blue, green, orange, yellow, and the last one that is red (and the only one red in the pool).
He observes the balls one by one and then, noticing that Red Ball™ has sunk and does not float like the others, he remarks with a "Alan is fat".
After a while I accidentally step on a blue ball, and when I bring it back to the surface it’s all crumpled. At this point bro looks at the ball, and calmly says "Scott is dead". Well, rip Scott.
Even later I try to empty the Red Ball, which in the meantime no longer floated because it was punctured. Bro tries to stop me, so I say to him, "Then you filled Alan with water! Look how fat he is now!" He looks at me and then yells "Alan likes to be fat!" trying to steal my ball. If you say so.
I put myself in the pool, but Bro comes up and says, "Scott’s out of air." I mean, that’s why he’s dead, isn't he?
I dive after a while, and when I resurface I see Bro hugging a purple ball. He notices I’m looking at him and he says, "Grandma Tracy needs love." Aw. After a while he wants to point out that "Grandma needs love, but not her cooking." If she hears you..
After a while I hear Bro shouting "WHERE IS VIRGIL??" We look for him together (because although there are at least 15 green balls in the pool the darkest one had to be Virgil), and in the end we find him on the ground. Bro says "go and see if it’s flat" to me. I remain silent for a while and then I say "Sorry, but is he on drugs, that’s all full of holes?". He answers with a "maybe. He deserves it." .. k fam.
Once Bro is reunited with the Tracy brothers I hear him yelling again, only this time he’s like, "You’re grounded!" to a fuchsia ball that should be Kayo. Then he continues with a "YOU TOO PENELOPE, GET GROUNDED!" and he proceeds to remove from the water a pink ball and a fuchsia one and place them in his hat. It is not known how, but even Grandma Tracy ends up grounded.
After a while I hear him shouting "Best Thunderbird of The Day!" and then I answer "Who is the Best Thunderbird of the day?". He, without even looking at me goes "Scott!" but then corrects himself. "Not Scott, but Thunderbird 1." I say, "Look, Scott’s dead." He says, "I’m trying to fill him with life." Okay, go ahead. Fill Scott with life.
So that's all. Alan is fat, Scott is dead, Virgil is on drugs and all the girls are grounded. Seems fair to me (?).
In conclusion, I love my Bro (and the Tracy's, obvi).
The event Goose is referring to, when he tells Maverick he must have carnal knowledge "of a lady this time" was the night before they were deployed on the Enterprise.
Maverick had been boasting about being able to pick up a date anywhere so, when they walked into the bar to find it apparently full of exclusively men (and mostly navy men at that), Goose bet Maverick $20 that he wouldn't be able to find some to go home with that night.
What Goose had apparently underestimated, was just how persistent Mav could be when presented with a challenge. Totally unphased, he struck up a conversation with a taller man sitting at the bar. Mav steadily, not so subtly, began flirting with him and he good-natured flirted back, until Maverick began to proposition him for real.
That was about the point when Goose realised that his dumbass of a pilot was actually serious, and pulled him away, marching him back home before he could get any of them into trouble.
The next morning, they were greeted with something of a surprise... Boarding the Enterprise, they were introduced to other members of their squadron and, typically of Pete Mitchell's propensity for shenanigans, there was the man from last night.
Goose felt about ready to expire with embarrassment on Mav's behalf. Pete just groaned, letting his head fall into his hand. The stranger, however, thought it was hilarious and just burst out laughing. He introduced himself as Cougar, and the man beside him (his RIO) as Merlin.
"Goose. Maverick." Nick responded, giving his pilot a long-suffering look.
Pete just groaned, again. Cougar laughed. "Well, I'm sorry to have to break your heart then, Maverick," He teased, "But, I'm married."
Mav opened his mouth and then shut it again. "You're- You- Why- Why the hell were you flirting with me, then?" He managed to get out, semi-outraged.
Cougar shrugged and nodded at Goose. "I heard your friend here make you a bet. Figured it wouldn't hurt to humour you a little, help a brother out y'know."
A grin began to spread it's way across Maverick's face. He threw an arm round his new acquaintance. "You know, Cougar, I think you and I are going to be very good friends."
Cougar laughed. "Count on it."

We Could've Been A Family
Some people long for a life that is simple and planned,
Tied with a ribbon,
Some people won't sail the sea 'cause they're safer on land,
To follow what's written,
But I'd follow you to the great unknown,
Off to a world we call our own.
Hand in my hand
And we promised to never let go,
We're walking a tightrope.
High in the sky,
We can see the whole world down below,
We're walking a tightrope.
Never sure, never know how far we could fall...
But it's all an adventure
That comes with a breathtaking view,
Walking a tightrope,
With you...
Maverick: Do you think I could fit 15 marshmallows in my mouth?
Iceman: *facepalms* You're a hazard to society...
Slider: And a coward, do 20!
