Scarlett wakes Lukas up in the middle of the night and asks him to let her into the pool. He hesitates because he’s not supposed to let her dive alone. She explains that she thinks she can try the inward dive now and promises he can stay with her; she doesn’t feel nervous diving in front of him. At the pool, Scarlett performs an inward dive for the first time in two years.

Lukas joins Scarlett in the pool. They swim, laugh, and tease each other. Lukas suggests they get out so they can check Scarlett’s MCAT scores. She forgot she’d told him about the email and her inability to open it. She tries changing the subject to Lukas’s upcoming Nordic Swimming Championships. He points out that he’ll be gone for 10 days, and he wants to be with her when she opens the scores.

Scarlett nervously opens the email, shocked to see she scored a point higher than Lukas. He congratulates her as if he already knew her results. He insists he knew she’d do well because she works so hard. She initiates a kiss, which she normally doesn’t do, but pulls back to ask if he and Pen are still having sex.
