Byron seats the professor on the guest house porch. "Let's talk."
Professor Williams takes a deep sigh before he says:
"Look Byron, I think I know what it is that makes you love this one that you love so much. I think that whoever it is that you have your eye on still loves you, but they need to know that. They need to know how much you love them. Otherwise, they might become sick, alone and unaware of what your heart really desires."
Bryon knows exactly what he needs to do. He smiles knowingly at the professor.
"You've left me with no choice. I will confess my love no matter what. I'll report back on what happens."
"For now Byron, please stay here. I want to track your progress...."
Bryon isn't sure he likes the idea of staying on the Williams estate to recoup from being love-sick, but he agrees to it anyway.
"Sure." he says.
On the other side of Foxport, Carey is making breakfast in the kitchen. Downstairs in the basement, Samantha and Mark discuss their relationship.
"Oh, Mark, why does she have to know? It's my stepmother, I know. Look, we can tell her in our own time.... The only reason that we're together is because I know that Cameron is cheating on me and I want to make the most of my sex life whilst he's off doing someone else. I want to protect myself - wouldn't you?" Samantha reveals.
Mark gulps.
"I'm young. I'm fun and I'm not going to let some jerk ruin my life. See this?" Samantha says pointing to her engagement ring. "It means nothing. The only person I want to be with is you-"
"Samantha honey, where's Mark, breakfast is ready, tell him and you come down too, wherever you are.... Eggs and toast babe." Carey shouts out.
"Shoot!" Samantha says, just as she's about to kiss Mark. "Go out the back door. Go around the front. Come in and tell her you were out looking at something on the front lawn."
Mark doesn't bother to say anything out of fear of being heard and he exits through the basement door.
Samantha runs over to the long mirror. She takes two red elastic bands and ties a tight ponytail before scooting up the stairs that lead to the kitchen.
When Samantha gets upstairs, she sees Mark kissing Carey passionately. He is leaning her up against the counter top.
He opens one eye and looks at Samantha over Carey's back.
His expression clearly says that he is a man who has the best of both worlds.
Samantha is quick: her face turns from shock to a large droopy pout.
Trevor comes into the mirror from behind... "Tracy I wanted to ask you something."
Tracy turns around.
"I read about you. In the news. Why didn't you tell me about the whole staging your death thing?"
"I didn't want you to know because I didn't think it was necessary. I want a new start here Trevor. I don't want to think about the World. Look, can we just not talk about it? I want to let you know that I'm seeing Cameron. I'm not really supposed to be her with you like this. Yes, he and I have issues, but that still is no excuse for this. I don't want to move to fast."
"Don't worry. I'll take things slow... I've pretty much exhausted my options with girls in Foxport anyway. I don't really have anywhere or anyone to rush onto- if you know what I mean." Trevor says and follows with his trademark smile.
Tracy kisses him on the cheek.
