Added DiffLines:

** Bob, Zack, and Alice are in a band together, and while Zack's new girlfriend was initially not a problem, she started to try and slip her way into band affairs more and more, and arguments became increasingly frequent due to Zack continually defending her increasingly unwelcome intrusions until Bob and Alice finally had enough and threw Zack out.
** Bob and Alice are the latest members of Zack's band, and they quickly find out why Zack can't keep a lineup, as his girlfriend is a wellspring of toxicity and childish, ridiculous drama, and they grow very tired of her antics and Zack's enabling behavior very quickly.


Added DiffLines:

** Zack's new girlfriend starts contributing musical ideas to the band, which his bandmates are understandably skeptical about initially, but she is an extremely skilled and creative musician and writer in her own right, and she helps provide a layer of musical depth and sophistication that the band would have never had without her.
