We go back to the campfire confession, where Young-ho drops the bomb that he and Joo-eun are dating. Later the two of them sit at Hyun-woo's restaurant, while Hyun-woo stares daggers at Young-ho and gives him the third degree about his assets and career. He's deliberately vague, which hilariously makes him sound like a loser. But Hyun-woo giggles to Joo-eun that's he's pretty sexy, which makes up for the fact that he's apparently got nothing to offer.
Her ex shows up to give her a child support check, and he asks who that guy is with Joo-eun. He asks if Joo-eun lost weight to get back at Woo-shik, but when Hyun-woo waves him off, he mutters that he's busy enough with this whole John Kim thing anyway.
Ji-woong drive home together and discuss their boss's admission, and they agree that this seems like more than just a casual thing. They say it's because Joo-eun is such a great person, though Ji-woong jokes that he feels like his mom is suddenly dating. Joon-sung tells him to just call his real mom more, ha.
When Young-ho defies Manager Min's recommendation to let go of his personal life right now in favor of the company, and introduces Joo-eun to Min as the woman he's dating, Min can't even think of anything to say. Though he does look amused when Joo-eun pretends not to live here, and Young-ho tells her that Min already knows.
The two men agree that things could get bad when Young-ho's father and grandmother find out, but Young-ho isn't willing to stop seeing Joo-eun just because it might get difficult. Min points out that it could be much worse for Joo-eun than Young-ho, and Young-ho just says that that's why he's counting on Min to help them. Min does agree to pretend he never met her, but she means too much to Young-ho for him to accept that as a solution.
He goes inside to find Joo-eun with her suitcase packed, and she says she'll sleep at Hyun-woo's. Young-ho tells her not to be silly — it's her last night here, so she should stay. The boys are out exercising, and Young-ho gets that glint in his eyes again... whatever shall they do, all alone in the house together? He suggests a "comfortable, erotic night" like Joo-eun is always saying, which earns him a punch to the gut.
Woo-shik and Soo-jin meet at a bar, though Soo-jin is still cold and refuses a drink. Woo-shik apologizes again for being unavailable lately, but Soo-jin isn't moved, and says that they can say sorry over the phone. She walks out but stops outside the door, waiting to see if Woo-shik will follow, and sighs sadly when he doesn't.
Young-ho and Joo-eun sit in their rooms thinking about the night's events, until the boys come home from the gym. Soon after, Joo-eun shows up in Young-ho's room with her pillow and the excuse that she forgot the last part of camping – staying up all night talking.
Young-ho is frustrated that she insists on laying on the floor, so Joo-eun lays down some ground rules if she's going to come up to the bed. No hugging, and no touching except hands and feet. Young-ho protests, grouching that he took her clothes off within five minutes of meeting her, so this seems a bit strict. But Joo-eun says that his "your body is mine" rule is over, since she's almost finished losing weight. It's driving Young-ho mad, but he agrees, and beckons her up.
HAHA, Joo-eun lays with her head at the foot of the bed and her feet in Young-ho's face. I don't think that's what he was expecting. But he takes it with grace, and asks her why she became a lawyer. Using his foot as a "microphone," Joo-eun says that she just wanted to right the unfair things that happen in the world.
Young-ho tries to cop a little feel with his feet and gets smacked. Too cute. Joo-eun drifts off to sleep, hugging Young-ho's foot while he watches her, remembering how much fun it's been having her living here and how they've grown closer. He sits up to see her face better, tippig her head to the side when she starts to gently snore.
