What people are saying
I found out that Michael had a crush on my wife.
And so I think Janet was the one that told A.K. and she was like, ‘You know, my brother always had a crush on you.’
So I thought it was cool to set up for her to meet him.
Just for both of them to just have that moment as fans of each other.
