A power-broker proposes swapping partners because the marriage license isn't official, saying their influence will prevent interference and protect reputations. When a young woman objects that he decided without asking, she's reminded of last night's passion and reluctantly agrees. The deal settles with Cedric instructed to take care of Kat while the elder handles business. At home, someone awkwardly calls Cedric 'honey' and he resists; then he's ordered to pack — they leave for Delmar in two hours. The episode ends with Cedric stepping into an imposed domestic role as the departure looms.
