After a bar incident angers Mr. Kerr, his household moves to contain the fallout: Owen is ordered to dress up and stop womanizing, while someone insists handling Owen's affairs is their job. Owen resists—"I can't have some woman?"—then offers, "Tell me you hate me womanizing, and I promise I'll keep all women away." Briar accepts Mr. Kerr's request and agrees to teach his son. Pressure mounts over rumors that could ruin Mr. Kerr’s loyal-husband image. They plan to go to Bigrich Hotel tonight, leaving Owen’s pledge and the father's control unresolved.
