Gina and Crockett are not Friends With Benefits; at the very least they have Relationship Labeling Problems, second, the relationship clearly does continue after Caroline is Put On A Bus and Gina views Sonny with open affection pretty much until the second she disgustedly breaks up with him, so nothing is "on life support".
