"At the hospital, both Adam and Laurie's dad blame the other for the accident. Laurie tries to tell her dad that it was purely an accident; JR did nothing wrong. Derek decides he's heard enough and orders both families out of the hospital.

Once home, Adam immediately begins to harass JR over his choices. He orders JR to stay away from Laurie Lewis and concentrate on the life that's waiting for him. When Adam asks JR what he and Laurie could possibly have in common, JR replies, "Stubborn fathers." JR wants Adam to know what a great girl Laurie is and that she in no way will hold him back. Adam refuses to listen.

At the Lewis home, the same type of conversation is taking place. After forbidding Laurie from spending more time with JR, Mr. Lewis tries to warn Laurie that guys like JR Chandler only want one thing from a girl like her. He tells her that she is too nice and trusting and guys like JR will only take advantage of that. Laurie believes her dad can't separate JR from his father. She tries to tell him they are not at all alike. Like Adam, Mr. Lewis refuses to listen.

After the father's retire for the night, Laurie calls JR. They compare stories. JR again tells Laurie he's sorry for the accident. He swears that if she had been hurt because of him, he would have killed himself.
