tells him to try and find another way to solve his problems. Danny says he will try. He receives a call on

his phone from Michelle. She tells him to meet her at the lighthouse.

 

Michelle arrives at the lighthouse and Danny is there. He wants to know what the plan is. She explains

that this is where she and Jesse first made love and that this is where Jesse has to find them in bed.

Meanwhile, Jesse comes to the diner to see Drew. Drew apologizes for her behavior. She tells Jesse that

Michelle called her and that she believes Michelle still wants him. Drew tells him that Michelle was going

to the lighthouse. He tells her she is a special friend and goes to meet Michelle. Drew calls Michelle and

tells her that Jesse is on his way. Selena sits down and Drew tells her everything. Selena is not sure how

well their plan will work. After Michelle receives the call from Drew, Danny asks if she can really go

through with this and she kisses him passionately. They begin to undress and get in bed. He tells her that

she is beautiful. They kiss and Michelle changes her mind. Jesse knocks on the door and Michelle tries to

get him to leave. He won't and he opens the door, sees them, and is crushed.
