Melvin finding out it’s the weekend.
Melvin finding out I’m going to see his almost-certain-to-be new brother without him. A brother that he has yet to run towards wildly meet.
Melvin finding out he can’t go yet because hopefully-new-brother is recovering from surgery and I don’t want him (Melvin) to be the cause of any popped stitches setbacks.
New maybe-brother?! OOOOOOOH!
All that is left is for Melvin to woo him (and not try to eat him)!
