Kevin pins Sydney against her building and ignores her attempts to pull away, accusing her of being a tease and making it clear he wants more than a kiss. Sydney prepares to scream for help, but before she can, a man calls out from behind them and interrupts the assault.

When Kevin loosens his grip, Sydney takes advantage of the opening and knees him in the groin. Kevin collapses in pain, and Sydney falls as well, hitting her head on a trash can as she goes down. Kevin tries to frame the situation as a misunderstanding between two people on a date, but the stranger asks Sydney directly if she is okay.

Sydney says she is fine now, and the stranger backs her up by threatening to call the police and testify about what he saw. Sydney declines police involvement because she wants the night to end, but she plans to block Kevin and report him through Cynch. Faced with the risk of being reported as a sex offender, Kevin becomes frightened and limps away.

After Kevin leaves, the stranger checks on Sydney again. In the streetlight, Sydney is immediately struck by his appearance and feels an intense attraction, convinced the feeling is mutual. She explains that Kevin was only a first date from Cynch and thanks the stranger for helping her, but although they share a charged moment, the man only makes sure she can get home safely and then leaves without asking her name or number, leaving Sydney stunned.
