B7 by: The writers for Star Trek: Next Generation. Avon is kicked off the ship halfway through season one because he doesn't get along with the rest of the crew.
That would be the best case scenario. Worst case: Avon gets a special episode where his background is explained in excruciating whiny detail and because his crewmates react so understandingly, he suddenly learns to get along. Avon then turns into a slightly sarcastic version of Mr. Spock, always doing the right thing.
Characters get weepy and emotional as they run into former lovers, family member, or schoolmates, but they never seem to continue the relationship after the particular show.
Well, that's what happened when Avon ran into Anna.
Joss Whedon: much the same. But Guada Prime is only the beginning.
Avon as Giles or Spike? Or Avon the Vampire Slayer.
