Ace asks Mallory whether she's going out. Mallory says she is. Ace asks Leah whether she is, also. Leah says she's not, because she feels like she's getting the flu. Mallory laughs at how Ace always wants everyone to be drunk. Kate says that Ace is out of control, and that he used to be an alcoholic. Okay, if he was really an alcoholic, there's no "used to be." Either you are or you aren't, and either you're in recovery, or you're not. I just hate when people throw around the word "alcoholic." Kate says that Ace used to drink every day. Ace says he would drink with his friends, and that it's not like he sat home and drank by himself.
At the club that night, Christina and Chris dance together. In a confessional, Christina says that Chris has made a lot of improvement and tries to see the other person's viewpoint before getting into an argument about it. Ace voice-overs that it's Kate's last night, and that he wants her to have a great time. Ace downs another drink. Ace and Kate get into a cab. Ace voice-overs that he saved $25 because that's usually how much a cab ride home costs. Ace explains that the driver got lost and the ride ended up costing $30. Ace promised to go inside and get the other five Euro, because he didn't have enough cash on him. Ace interviews that the driver didn't seem to understand English and "went crazy on [Ace] out in the street." Ace walks back toward the driver, who is waiting for his money. Kate is standing there, too. Ace tries to give the guy the money, and he won't take it, and keeps saying "five Euro." Ace is nearly crying as he says that there is way more than five Euro there, but the cabbie won't take it, for some reason. Ace gets pissed off and tells the guy to take it. He shoves the guy (and Kate). Ace keeps yelling at the guy to take it. Ace shoves Kate aside so hard that she gasps. The guy apparently has the money now, but he's trying to give it back, and Ace yells at the guy to get in his cab and go. The guy shakes his finger at Ace and kind of pokes Ace in the shoulder. Ace pushes the guy back and asks, "What you want? You want this?" Ace tells the guy to get in his cab and take off. The guy is in kind of a karate stance. I seriously have no idea what's going on here. Why won't the guy take the money? Why is Ace crying?
