Object
Introduction to Advanced Trigonometry (Gift Book)
A physical copy of the textbook titled 'Introduction to Advanced Trigonometry' — presented by Charlie at Zoey's dorm as a modest, almost comic offering alongside flowers and popcorn. Charlie holds it out self-deprecatingly; Zoey reads the title aloud. The book functions as a tactile, awkward peace-offering that punctures the charged atmosphere and helps nudge a tentative reconciliation while Gina watches.

Purpose
Textbook for learning advanced trigonometry (educational reference); in the scene repurposed as a gift/apology token.
Significance
Serves as a small, emblematic substitute for larger apologies — its banality and specificity undercut the tension, provide comic relief, and become a pivot for emotional thawing between Charlie and Zoey, mirroring broader familial truce themes in the episode.
