Rhys wakes up the next morning in a bad mood. He knows he messed up with Vivi the night before, but he feels more upset by her not sharing his faith in their relationship. He thinks that although Vivi loves him, she does not trust him, and he feels wounded by it. His brother Bowen video-calls him. Rhys confides in Bowen the full course of events, from his and Vivi’s first meeting to the present situation of the curse. Bowen says it is no wonder Vivi does not trust Rhys, because Rhys treats everything like it does not matter to him—even when it does. Bowen tells Rhys to go to Vivi and tell her he loves her. Rhys drives immediately to Elaine’s house, where Elaine and Sir Purrcival greet him at the door. Sir Purrcival welcomes him with another new word: “Dickbag.” Elaine is kind to Rhys, as she knows what he has come there to say. She tells him Vivi is already at her apartment preparing to contact Aelwyd, and he cannot disturb her right now. Elaine suggests that he can tell Vivi he loves her afterward, but Rhys is upset, feeling that he is always too late.
