Meet-cute (Lupin, Assane+Guedira).

After spilling ink on himself, getting an enormous load of (always important, always urgent) paperwork from Laugier, and turning his desk (and half of Belkacem's) upside down to unsuccessfully try to find his missing watch, Guedira had to admit to himself that this was shaping up to be a bad day... however, he decided to make the best of things, and after asking Belkacem if she'd like some too, he went over to their usual place, just around the corner from the station, and ordered a much-deserved cup of coffee. Just as he was walking out, a man bumped into him--as he apologised, he gave Guedira a friendly wink, and then said "Nice watch". Surprised (and blushing a bit, in spite of himself), Guedira looked down--there was his watch, inexplicably, almost miraculously, on his wrist again... and when he looked up again, the man was gone.
