Rosie is currently in Philadelphia with her father, lamenting Olly’s absence and realizing his request for help painting his house was merely a ruse to see her brother. Suddenly, her father’s neighbor, Nora, arrives and gently flirts with him, bringing him a cake as promised. Rosie feels immense guilt when Nora mentions that her father has always talked about her prestigious engineering career with great enthusiasm. She is pleasantly distracted by texts from Lucas, teasing her about her father’s grand romance and asking her if he should leave dinner for her before he goes to bed. Rosie deflects her father’s curiosity about her possible romance and quietly admits to him that Olly is not coming.
Rosie returns to New York and is surprised to see Olly. He apologizes for missing the trip to Philadelphia, but Rosie is more concerned about the obvious signs that he has been in a fight. He assures her that his job at a night club is going well. When Rosie asks if his job is illegal, like drug sales, Olly finally explains that he is working as a performer in an adult entertainment club. Before he can explain further, his ride arrives, a surly man who whisks him away before Rosie can learn more.
