As they hunt for clues, they realize that their constant sparring stems from their strong attraction. Emily suggests that they have an affair, as she has committed to never marrying, but Brett is reluctant to take her up on her offer. Though their days are filled with following leads, Emily plans to fill their nights with her efforts at seduction.
