For whatever handwavy reason, Karen and Marci find themselves stuck together, maybe at a bar or something. Eventually the conversation turns to one of their only points of commonality - Foggy.
Marci is very frank about Foggy’s skills. Karen is uncomfortable, tries to brush off the subject, but Marci just shrugs and says, Hey, if you don’t believe me, just ask Murdock - he knows what I'm talking about. Karen’s eyes maybe bug out.
Karen brings it up to the guys at Josie’s. Apparently there was an Incident in school. An Incident wherein Nelson and Murdock made out and there were witnesses. It was only one time, though, no big deal, right?
+ Maybe it was for charity? Maybe they were just really, really drunk.
++ Foggy may spend a lot of effort trying to explain the Incident away (because that is how he represses), but Matt just goes really red and probably stammers a lot (because that is how HE works denial).
+++ Karen, being fundamentally unable to let anything go, declares that she doesn’t believe it. She’d have to see it with her own eyes to believe it.
++++ Foggy eventually gets goaded into kissing Matt again.
+INFINITY+ For pining avocados who did so much backtracking and repression in school after that Kissing Incident, but when they kiss again now, the dam finally breaks.
