Strategies to Gain the Upper Hand

Heather has her sight back and has not told Darren. The plan is to go on acting blind until she proposes to him, so that he gets both at once. On the day she goes to find him he is kissing her closest friend in front of her, making no effort to hide it. There was a bet with his friends behind it. Darren had arranged for Alonzo to stand in for him and keep her occupied, which left Darren free to do as he liked. Heather works out what the arrangement is. 'So you're picking a husband for me,' she says, and she puts herself in Alonzo's arms and asks him to kiss her while Darren watches. Alonzo has been in love with her for a long time and has said nothing about it.
