Dale: Terry didn't abandon me to my fate, he offered me his support in getting us another apartment, and he'll help with anything we need, he just can't do anything against Riley, that's all.

Kelly: Hmm, no, that's not all, you're hiding something from me, Dale Cho.

Of course Dale is hiding something.

So no, he can't tell Kelly what happened on that call with Terry, at least not now.

Riley: Yes, because I already knew he would never accept my proposal so we wouldn't have to leave.

Sarah: No, it's not. You were hoping for the exact opposite result. Your intention was very clear! You offered Dale leave the bedroom if he would sleep with you, because you thought that was the only way he would give in to your whim!

Kelly: (Stops smoking) What??

Dale: …
