A drunken James visits Sheila. She tries to confess her lapse of judgment earlier, but he is too preoccupied by his hurt feelings of Maggie's sudden departure. After some more glasses of whiskey, James kisses Sheila passionately. Maggie awakes from her passed out state in Mike's apartment. Mike prevents Maggie from fleeing and sets the record straight that it is highly unlikely that James will search for her. Sally has her hair done by Gladys who quickly realizes that her client aims to impress Clarke. At Café Russe, Clarke tries to be friendly towards Eric, but the Forrester patriarch tells his one-time son-in-law that he wants nothing to do with him.
