Chantel is ook in die kar, en 'n gesprek tussen hulle en Tim volg, waarin Tim bewustelik besef Chantel het belangstelling in hom. Chantel se ma bied aan om hom te betaal om haar perd, Comet, ook in topkondisie te kry, maar hy weier, deels as gevolg van skoolwerk en verpligtinge soos die neem van foto's vir die skoolkoerant. Chantel reageer met belangstelling oor die foto's, en hoewel ongemaklik, wys Tim haar die foto's wat hy geneem het. Op pad huis toe, het daar 'n yskoue atmosfeer tussen Chantel en haar ma. By sy huis, ontdek Tim sy ma en Marli besig met bak werk in die kombuis. Hy neem 'n paar ongedwonge foto's van hulle, en sluit dan homself in 'n foto. Tim begin sy huiswerk, maar is ontsteld om te sien dat hy moet foto's neem van die eerste rugbyspan - wat sy eksmeisie se nuwe ou, Janu, insluit. Hierdie ontwikkeling laat Tim gefrustreerd oor die impak van sy breuk met Jessica op sy lewe.
