Later, Steve returns home and is taken aback to find Tracy there and as he reaches into his pocket for Tommy’s letter, he stops in his tracks when Tracy announces she’d like them to get back together. Tracy assures Steve that Tommy was a stupid mistake and promises she’s back for good.

In the mood to celebrate, Steve heads out for a celebratory bottle of wine but upon revealing that he’s back with Tracy, Dev Alahan is left horrified and refuses to serve him.
