Alexandra walked back into Aubrey's hotel room in New York City.

Alexandra (Frightened): Where's your beard?

Aubrey got up and walked to Alexandra who looked at him with wide eyes. The first time she met him, he had a beard. All the times he purposed, he had a beard. It was an awkward reality that Alexandra only knew Aubrey with a beard.

Aubrey: I shaved it.

Alexandra: For what?

Aubrey: Just a change, I guess.

Alexandra touched Aubrey's face in amazement. It was really nice. A clean shave fit him really well. Anything pretty much fit Aubrey well.

Alexandra: I like it. (Touching it and smiling) I really do.

[After SNL]
Aubrey came back to their hotel room a little drunk. It was 1:30 LA time but they were still in New York City. Alexandra laid on their bed in a white lace babydoll. He checked his stuff down and went through is phone for a couple of minutes. He climbed into bed with Alexandra and she watched him make his way to her.

Alexandra: Great performance tonight.

Aubrey: Thank you. Did you like the whole show?

Alexandra (Looking away from Aubrey): Yeah. It was cool.

Aubrey sat up and looked Alexandra in the eyes. She wasn't insecure anymore. She wasn't insecure anymore.

Aubrey: I'm glad you liked it.

He kissed her on the lips. She smiled uneasily and got off the bed and went to the mini bar. She poured herself straight vodka and downed the whole glass. It stung her whole mouth.

Alexandra: Uh, I have to go ba-

Alexandra's phone rang on the nightstand. She thought about finishing her sentence but she went to grab her phone. When she saw the name, she rolled her eyes and took the call in the bathroom. Aubrey laid down and waited for Alexandra.

Alexandra (In a loud whisper): What do you want?!

Daniel: To say I'm sorry. And that- I feel like you hate me.

Alexandra: That kinda was the point.

Daniel: If I knew that you wanted a relationship, things would've been diff-

Alexandra: I didn't want a relationship. It wasn't about that. It was about the fact that you're a liar. You claim you were in a bad relationship that you always find your way back to. I can't respect that.

Alexandra found out about Daniel with his ex and another girl through talk throughout the town. Her friends from back home that also knew him mistakenly told her about a girl he was with not knowing Alexandra was supposed to be the girl he was with. In a way.

Alexandra: You make it seem like I made advances that went over your head. You make it seem like I wasn't obvious and that you weren't either. You're not a victim in this.

Daniel: I'm not gonna tell you my life story so that you can understand this.

Alexandra: Understand what? What don't I understand?

Daniel: You don't wanna hear the whole story. But how long were we talking? A few weeks? And did I fall for you? Yes. Obviously I did. This is the second time I've tried to talk to you. I know you don't care. I know you won't accept it but I'm sorry.

Alexandra: And how is sorry supposed to make things better?

Aubrey knocked on the bathroom door.
