Quintessa nodded vigorously, "Aunt Jane, you're absolutely right. I've realized you're pretty wise."

Mrs. York smiled bashfully, "Oh, stop it. I mean, even though I think my son could be better in some ways, at least he can't be gay, right? Think about it, he's not that bad." Quintessa agreed, "True..."

That night, Quintessa and Mrs. York talked until the early hours of the morning, around 2 or 3 A.M.

The bond between women is built on shopping sprees and shared secrets. After they spent a night chatting, their relationship skyrocketed.

The next morning, Quintessa woke up with bags under her eyes and headed to the set, while Mrs. York knocked on Tyrone's door, "Son, for your sake, I've even played the villain. You better step up!" On set, Quintessa ran into Jonathan and gave him an odd look.

Feeling uneasy under her gaze, Jonathan couldn't shake off the awkwardness, even days after the shoot wrapped up. Whenever he tried talking to Quintessa, she avoided him, which left Jonathan utterly confused.

After the wrap party and a group photo with the cast, Quintessa flew back to Emberbrook that very day.

Tyrone, being a businessman, couldn't stay in Zion City indefinitely and had returned to Emberbrook with Mrs. York two days earlier.
