Miles and Rachel go to the beach. They’re having an enjoyable day, and they make each other happy. Miles confesses that he stopped believing in God when his mother died, but when he met Rachel, he believed that God is real again. Rachel cries and tells him her period is late.
Corbin invites Tate to dinner with him, Ian, and Miles to celebrate Miles’s promotion to captain. Miles acts very humbly about the promotion, and he and Tate flirt in veiled ways during the dinner.
