I Give You Every Heartbeat - Episode 9

Naomi, the top student from a poor village, arrives at the exclusive freshman ball without a gown or a dance partner, intending only to sign in for credit. Her lack of proper attire draws scorn and ridicule from other students, who refuse to dance with her, openly insulting her background. The professor insists she can't attend without meeting dress and partner requirements, threatening delayed graduation over lost credits. Just as Naomi faces humiliation and exclusion, a man named Mr. Quinn appears, dressed unusually for the event, hinting at a potential intervention that could change her fate at the ball.
