C.C. walked up to her room. Fran was beside her. She slowly opened the door, and a sigh of relief escaped her lips when she realized Niles' wasn't there. Fran left, and C.C. was now all alone. She sat down on her bed and began to cry. It was as though her heart was being ripped out. She quickly changed her clothes and went to sleep. The next morning, C.C. could hardly bear to look at Niles. At breakfast he kept winking at her, which sent shivers up and down her spine. Fran asked C.C. if she would contact Maxwell. This is kind of how their conversation went:

Maxwell: hello? CC: hello Maxwell Maxwell: CC? Why are you calling me? Did something happen to the lead actor in our show because if that is the case I will be very- CC: NO! No. I'm sorry Maxwell. It's something different. Maxwell: Well then CC what is it? CC: I heard you hit Fran Maxwell: Oh my god. CC........I didn't mean to.....I was just so agitated........Tell my darling that I am so sorry (CC turns from the phone and tells this to Fran who tells her to keep talking to him) CC: I did Maxwell: Alright....what did she say? (Fran tells CC to give her the phone) CC: she would like to tell you

C.C. gave Fran the phone and left the room, only to walk headlong into Niles. "Ms. Babcock are you alright?" said Niles with a devilish grin on his face. C.C. looked at him nervously. "Fine..........I'm just fine" a sob escaped her lips and she ran down the hall into her hotel room, slamming the door and then locking it. Niles began to knock on the door. "C.C.? C.C.? My darling?" he called.
"I'M NOT YOUR DARLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed. He froze. "Wh- what?" he said. He forced the door open and looked at her, collapsed on the floor. He closed the door and sat down next to her. He pulled her into his arms. She sobbed against his chest and then he finally asked her what was wrong. She told him, and he held her and apologized. She forgave him..........but Fran still hadn't forgiven Maxwell. They had a huge fight on the phone, and Fran hung up on him. And there was still the trial.
