Once Sharon was gone, Karen secretly called Keanu to tell him: "She don't suspect a thing. If you pull this off, we've got her by the short and curlies."

At the Arches, Keanu was dressed up in a naval uniform and surprised her with a romantic screening of An Officer and a Gentleman.

"You and Albie, you're my future. I love you, Sharon," he swore.

After their romantic meal, Sharon took a call from Dorian in the Vic where she was told she only had until the end of the day to make a decision on the job.
