Anthony rushes to work, his hugs with Cassie make him later. He's also eager to meet his new partner, Justine Keaton!
Cassie has the day off today, and uses it to call her friend Sun Young Kim from China, that she met while on her honeymoon with Anthony. The two catch up and Sun Young tells her all about the martial arts tournament that's coming up next month.
After getting of the phone with Sun Young, she's inspired to work on her martial arts skills, which she learned on her honeymoon, all while blasting some Chinese music! Ahh, she misses China...
When Anthony gets home from work, he decides to join her!
While eating ice cream for dinner because she doesn't feel like cooking, Cassie gets a call from her bestie Lucy, who wants to go out! Anthony rolls his eyes, and Cassie goes to meet her friend at the Grind.
Lucy embraces her old roomate and the two catch up. Lucy tells her all about her latest hookup with a new boy, and teases Cassie for becoming an old married bore. It's so easy to drift back into her old mindset, being with Lucy, when she paints such a picture of freedom and fun.
While Cassie goes out with Lucy, Anthony decides to get to know his partner Justine a little better when he meets up with her at Central Park.
Over at the Grind, the place is hopping! Cassie and Lucy waste no time, have a few drinks, and start to party!
The old Cassie comes out, and soon she's dancing on tables! Apparently even when people are trying to eat on them...
When it gets late, Cassie tells Lucy that she needs to leave and Lucy snickers that her old friend wouldn't ever stop partying before 12 am! Cassie laughs off her comments, although they bother her more than she lets on, hugs her, and takes off.
The next morning, Cassie gets up before Anthony, feeling guilty. He was asleep when she came home last night, and she knows that he'll always give her her freedom, but that he wants a wife who is more domesticated than her. She really loves him, and hates to hurt him in any way. Even though he's younger than her, he's talked non-stop since they've been married about having children and settling down, but Cassie's just not ready. She decides to make up last night to him, she'll make him waffles for breakfast and show him what a good housewife she can be! She might not be ready for kids, but she will make him waffles. Baby steps.
Ok, maybe that whole domestic thing was a bad idea! She turns around and the whole stove has gone up in flames! She yells for Anthony who comes thundering downstairs...
Anthony's training at the police academy kicks in, and he takes care of the fire himself despite Cassie's protests and pleas that he let the fire department take care of it. She calls them in a blind panic.
The firefighters show up only to find that Anthony has already taken care of the fire. They tell him in the future to let them handle it, but admire his bravery. Cassandra slinks off to work, embarassed and crying, and leaves Anthony to talk to the insurance company, who agree to cover all the damages from the fire.
Thankfully, Cassandra's day get better when her boss, Ashley Whittaker, gives her a promotion and asks her to be his personal assistant! Her day is looking up, despite almost burning down her house this morning.
When she gets home, Anthony is there waiting for her, and she looks at him sheepishly. She says she's sorry she ran out this morning, she just couldn't find the words to say. She's afraid she'll never be good wife material. He pulls her into a hug and tells her she doesn't have to try to be something that she's not. He loves her the way she is, for who she is, and it doesn't matter if she can make waffles or not.
Lucy may make independence seem tempting, but she wouldn't trade this guy for anything. She feels so lucky to have him in her life. As she looks over his shoulder at the kitchen, she can't help but stifle a laugh though....
This guy thinks of everything. :P
