He's torn when he arranges another meeting with Mike after sharing a passionate kiss with fiancée Gabby Thomas (Rosie Bentham).

As Gabby tells Vinny she's having a night at a spa, Charles Anderson (Kevin Mathurin) is concerned when she wants his help with something she's keeping secret from Vinny.

Vinny, meanwhile, gets an urgent message from Mike, who shows up at his house and reveals he's been kicked out by his partner.
