Aziraphale wrote a note to Gabriel while Crowley put the diamond back in the safe. Meanwhile, in the smoking room, Sandalphon came up to Gabriel to tell him that Aziraphale hadn't been seen in hours. No stewards had seen him anyway. Gabriel couldn't understand how Aziraphale had suddenly disappeared. It was a large ship but it's not like he could've left it as they were still in the Atlantic Ocean. Gabriel just told Sandalphon to go and find him.

Up on deck, everyone was at work ensuring that the ship got to its destination. There wasn't a cloud in sight nor any fog, wind, or icebergs. Not even the sea was rough that night. It was so calm. But it was so dark out. Not even the moonlight helped them to see anything because there was a new moon that night. One of the officers commented to the captain that the lack of a moon would make the icebergs harder to see.

But the Captain was confident that they would make it to America ahead of schedule with a night like this and decided to turn in for the night, leaving the officers in charge. Back to First Class. As Crowley waited for Aziraphale to get changed, he went to the promenade deck to look out the window. But he could feel the cold night air so he went back in, just as Aziraphale was finished getting dressed. The two had just met in the same room when there was a knocking at the door.

Aziraphale grabbed Crowley's hand and started to drag him out of the room. Crowley wanted to quickly grab his drawings but there was no time. Aziraphale took Crowley to another room where there was a door they could leave through. Sandalphon heard the door close and went to investigate. But the two were gone by the time Sandalphon got into the room. He went through the door Aziraphale and Crowley had escaped from and saw them down the hall.

They looked back to see him there and started to walk faster. Not before that started to run instead. They made it to one of the lifts and asked the lift operator to bring them down. Sadnalphon made it just as they started to head down. Aziraphale even flipped him off as they disappeared below deck. Sadnalphon watched them disappear before running to go and take the stairs. The two made it down to E Deck and started to run down to the deck below them.

They stopped in a corridor to catch their breaths. Sandalphon made it to the lift only to see that the two were now gone and the lift was going back up. Crowley commented on the fact that Sadnalphon was pretty tough for a valet and seemed more like a cop. Aziraphale said that he thinks he used to be one. Through the window of a door, they saw Sandalphon who made it below deck and started to run again when he spotted them.

They ran down the corridor which led to a dead end but Crowley noticed a door and they both ran in, locking it behind them. Crowley looked at a hatch below them which led to the boiler room. Aziraphale asked him what they should do now but Crowley couldn't hear him. They just decided to go down and see if there was another way out. Just as they got down, one of the men who ordered everyone around noticed the couple and told them they shouldn't be down there.

They started to run again, through all the smoke, and workers, not caring if they would get in trouble for being down there. After all the running they did, they made it to the cargo hold where larger luggage was being kept along with a car. The two went over to it and Crowley examined it. Aziraphale cleared his throat, wanting to get into the back. Crowley opened the door for him and helped him in before closing the door behind him.

Crowley got into the driver's seat as Aziraphale pulled the window down to see him. Crowley honked the horn, asking Aziraphale where he wanted to go. Aziraphale told him he wanted to go to the stars before dragging Crowley into the back seat with him. Crowley laughed as he was pulled into the back seat with Aziraphale. He sat with him and held him close, just admiring him. He asked if he was nervous to which he replied that he wasn't. He then started to kiss his hands before looking up at him, asking him to put his hands on him.

He obliged as they started to make out, heavily. Above deck, in the Crowsnest, two lookouts were keeping an eye out for anything. One of them complained about how cold it was up there but bragged to his friend that he could smell ice when it was near. His friend called it bollocks but he assured his friend it was true. Below them, Murdoch asked one of the officers if they had found the binoculars for the lookout. The officer explained that he hadn't seen them since they left Southampton.

But he had to leave to go on his rounds. Murdoch decided to keep a lookout too, just in case. Meanwhile, back in the cargo hold, the windows of the car were all steamed up as Aziraphale and Crowley made love in the back seat. Aziraphale's hand came up, making a handprint on the steamed glass before slowly coming back down. Inside, the two caught their breaths as they finished their little session. Both were sweaty and exhausted but never regretted a thing. The two just lay there, calming down for a bit.

Soon, a boiler worker showed two crewmembers where he had seen Aziraphale and Crowley run off to. They went looking for them in the cargo hold. Meanwhile, back in Third Class, Gabriel had returned to the room after Sadnalphon had told him what he had seen. Gabriel opened his safe to reveal the drawing still in there along with Aziraphale's note saying "Gabriel, now you can keep us both locked in your safe. Aziraphale". After looking at both, Gabriel went to rip them but stopped himself, claiming that he had a better idea.
