Carroll returns to confront Hilda, whom he abandoned four years ago, promising he won't leave again. Hilda, now Joey's girlfriend, rejects him and accuses him of using a car key and a villa to get rid of her. Carroll grabs her despite her warning, "Don't touch me," and tries to coerce her by threatening to tell Joey about their past. He invokes Joey's concern about virginity and pressures Hilda to break up or face exposure. As she resists, someone outside calls, "Darling, are you in there? I'm coming in," leaving Hilda's secret and relationship hanging as the door opens.
