As Oliver cooks, Luc asks him about his relationship history, self-conscious that his own is easily accessible via an internet search. Oliver assures him that he does not intend to Google him, which reassures Luc more than he thought it would. Luc apologizes for being harsh about Oliver when they first met. The two start to get to know each other.
Luc and Oliver discuss who knows the truth of their rouse and who to keep in the dark. Oliver offers to let Luc stay over for a while, and Luc watches television while Oliver works. Luc finds The Whole Package, a singing competition his dad is a judge for. In one of the episodes, Luc watches Jon have a tender moment discussing fatherhood with a complete stranger and learns that Jon never met his own father. Luc is deeply hurt by the revelation and the clear tenderness between Jon and the contestant. He falls asleep.
Oliver wakes Luc up. Luc apologizes and offers to let Oliver out of the deal, which Oliver rejects. The two debate Oliver’s ethical opinions, and Luc explains why people struggle with concepts like ethical vegetarianism, saying that it makes them look at the wrongness in the world when they would rather ignore it.
