In the kitchen, Harry finds Ronnie, and asks her what gives. "Of all the people to pounce on me…" She is incredulous at his obliviousness, but tries to explain. "I've kind of put myself out there. For you. Lately." "You have?" "Oh, come on. When you walked me home that night? You practically ran when I touched your face, and I figured…if there's somebody else, there's somebody else. So I invite you out for your birthday, and I cook you this dinner, and you show up with a twenty-year-old former student. And that's your right. But it's my right to feel like the world's biggest idiot, okay, so just let me do the dishes." Harry says okay, and walks away. Ronnie makes a noise like she can't believe him. Obviously, he hasn't learned woman-code. "Go away and let me do the dishes" means "stay here, apologize for everything you've done wrong, and help me do the dishes."
