So Nora and Brody gently tease each other and then Nora breaks the news to Brody that William Walker asked her to marry him. Brody stops in his tracks and stares at her, but doesn't say anything, but the implication is that if he had said ANYTHING, Nora would have chosen him instead. But, he says nothing, and Nora turns to go. Cut back to Walker Manor and Saul and Justin gawking over the fact that Nora would have married Brody if given the chance... and then Justin never would have existed! Nora smiles and then returns for a more private visit to memory lane: As she leaves Brody calls after her and hands her the birthday present he was going to give her, but since he won't be seeing her then, or ever I guess, he wants to give it to her now. It's a locket that was his grandmother's. She can use it to remember him. Nora gushes that she would never forget Brody and then they kiss, long and hard, and maybe this is when Sarah was conceived? We cut to commercial before we ever find out. I mean, THANK GOD.
Nora is innocently walking through an outdoor café, when she stops dead in her tracks, because there sits Brody, innocently (?) reading a newspaper. She calls him out, because what is he doing on her side of the state? Didn't he see the big chalk line she drew down the middle of it? This is clearly her side of things. Is he stalking her? Brody lights up when he sees her, and then laughs that since he was there first that would be some pretty fancy stalking. Maybe it's just the universe telling them something. Nora harrumphs and shuffles past him to continue on her way. She stops five feet later and asks him whether he got that old car fixed up to drive himself down to Florida. For some reason Brody instantly seems to have some idea what the heck she is talking about, which seems unlikely because it has been 40 years and she was the one who had the flashback, not him. He explains that he never got that car fixed and had to take a bus. Maybe the universe was telling him something way back then too? That melts Nora's resolve (girls are SO easy) and she tells him to come over that night. He makes a goobery, yet endearing, "YES!" arm gesture as she leaves.
Back at the hotel, Justin is ushering Luc's... well, what's the French equivalent of a frat boy? These are the most bro-ish Frenchmen I have ever seen and I was an exchange student to Montpellier AND saw the final leg of the Tour de France. So, well done, casting! The Frenchmen are running around the hotel lobby chasing tail like it's some form of musical chairs. Obviously the girls are all totally falling for it, because the men have French accents and girls are kind of silly like that and go all weak in the knees anytime a guy with an accent (not German) flirts with them. The men are practically wilding and Justin rounds them up and herds the men towards the elevator apologizing to everything in a skirt for their behavior. Then he sees Tyler and completely forgets about the Frenchmen who are mounting everything in sight. Justin sheepishly explains that they are Luc's cousins. In crisp high school French Tyler tells them that there rooms are on the 5th floor and if they need anything to call her. One guy asks her if he meant her in Paris, and does she know where he can purchase some roofies? He's asking for a friend.
