They are walking back to the house when Jarrod ask Meliza when she is going to tell him the truth. She says it isn't what he thinks.

He says Audra Rose Barkley stop acting like a baby and grow up. He tells her as he goes upstairs.
Jarrod is laying in bed thinking about everything and what Meliza said to him. Also, he is feeling kind of guilty for the way he treated Audra. He will apologize to her tomorrow he decides as he falls asleep.
