Aiden buys the company of the man who grabbed Frankie and then fires him. When Frankie gets angry about this, Aiden appeases her by explaining that the man had multiple harassment suits and was weeks away from being bankrupt, which means that everyone in his company would have lost their jobs. Their argument is interrupted by Ferris, who fumes at Aiden and accuses him of ruining everything for the sake of a woman. Frankie snaps back that Ferris shouldn’t have dumped everything on Aiden if he doesn’t like how things are being run. She tells him to trust his son. Ferris tells Aiden to choose between his family and his girlfriend and leaves. Frankie and Aiden go out for air, walking in silence. Frankie assumes that he is about to end their relationships and thinks that she should break up with him first. He surprises her by guessing her intentions and then thanks her for standing up to his father.

As Aiden leaves the office building later, he believes that the newly acquired company will do well under new policies. Preoccupied, he collides with Margeaux, who starts to cry and says that her boyfriend stranded her. He reluctantly offers her a ride.
