Exhausted from a night at the clubs, Tim stumbled back to the apartment, mistakenly sporting someone else’s coat. He persuaded Lee to accompany him on a quick trip to return it to its rightful owner.

The echoes of Lee’s history returned unexpectedly, heralded by a knock at his door and the simple request of a young woman seeking only a cup of sugar.

Lee pledged to change his behavior regarding Lucy’s apartment, assuring her he would cease acting as though it were his own – although not before securing its use for a film director.

A wave of distress has fallen on Lucy and Tim. Their parents’ marriage, lasting thirty years, has dissolved, and their father has left the family home—taking up residence in Lee’s room.

An elderly woman drifted into Lucy’s apartment and settled comfortably onto the sofa, leaving Lee unsure how to proceed.

Lee envisions an idyllic existence alongside Lucy, yet whether his aspirations will find purchase in the truth remains to be seen.
