Wow, I haven't been here since the last thread... No a lot familiar people here, but the main thing is that Snickers is still alive!
To answer Sakura's question.
To be realistic, I kind of think that they won't ease her appearance. She'll show up, and won't spend too much time with other character explaining her departure. After all, the ep will be about Warrick, and no matter how it ends, I assume there will be a lot moments where they will recall good days.
However, in my own snickers world, I think it would be great if Nick sees Sara alone, without everyone there and since he is the emotional guy I can imagine him being the only one saying how much he misses her.
N: (after seeing her in the hallway) Sara...What are you doing here?
S: (smiles) Nick. I came for Warrick.
N: I see...Would it be wrong if I say that I'm glad you're here? I mean, with the circumstances...
S: I'm glad to see everyone too.
N: So...does this mean you'll be coming back.
S: (shakes her head) No...I'm...I'm happy where I am. Not so sad all the time.
N: I'm sorry this place made you feel like that.
S: (smiles) Typical Nick. Always taking responsibility in making me feel better.
(pause)
N: You know I miss you.
S: Yeah...Me too. But hey, I'm here now and you still owe me that double double animal style sandwich.
N: Ahm...I think it's the other way around.
S: How about if we just go get that sandwich and we'll take it from there.
N: Deal.
