Carrie stops kissing Mike and says this isn't right, she still loves Austin. Mike tells Carrie that she doesn't belong with Austin and she'll only be happy with him. Mike tells her that he's going to fight for her and will NEVER let her go. Carrie tells Mike that they shouldn't be alone together, he better go. Suddenly, Mike hears a noise, which is Austin leaning against the wall outside. As Mike is about to check it out, the police knock on Carrie's door. The officers tell Carrie that her father sent them to watch over her. Carrie tells them that she doesn't know where her husband or sister are, and asks them to leave her alone. Austin overhears this and says it is Mike's lucky day. The cops leave and Mike tells Carrie that she can't keep blaming herself for her marital problems, Austin ran out and chose Sami and Will over her, even though he does love her. Mike tells Carrie that he'd never chose anyone over her. As they kiss, there is another knock at the door. This time it's room service, Mike ordered some dinner. Carrie tells Mike that he always took such good care of her. Outside their room, Sami looks inside and sees Carrie with Mike. Meanwhile, Austin goes back to the cabin, only to find it empty. Sami, Will, and Tracey return. Sami asks Austin if he saw Carrie and he tells her no. Sami tells him that he was gone for so long, but Austin says he didn't see Carrie. Sami wonders if he's lying, and if he saw Mike and Carrie together.
