We open on Taylor Townsend's shocked and upset face as Ryan tells her that he doesn't want to do anything for Valentine's Day, since Valentine's Day never ends well for him. "It's a recipe for disaster," he says. Not as much as the recipe for goat cheese and shrimp risotto I tried to make once. That wasn't good for anyone. Taylor thinks Ryan's been distracted lately, but barely gets through saying that before she is also distracted by a piece of paper on Ryan's nightstand with an address scribbled on it. A mystery musical flourish plays, and Taylor asks Ryan about the "suspicious address" she noticed when he was in the bathroom. Most people wouldn't admit that they were spying on their lovers when they weren't around, but Taylor Townsend has no such qualms. Ryan assures her that it's not some girl's address and says he has to go to work because he always has to go to work. Taylor claims to be reassured, but you know she's not. Ryan stupidly leaves her alone with the address, so, of course, she grabs it. Cut to Taylor walking down 35th Street and outside the door of Room 17. She knocks on the door and is surprised when Frank answers it. I'm surprised, too. Mostly sad, though.

Frank invites Taylor in and says this is the new room he's staying in. He told Ryan about it, and while Ryan wrote the address down, he hasn't made an effort to see him yet. Taylor should feel ashamed of herself for violating Ryan's privacy like this, but she doesn't. She just tells Frank that she has "emotional problems," but she's getting over them despite her lack of effort to do so. She thinks Ryan wants to reach out to Frank since he kept the address, and I'm sure he does. On his own time. Without any interference from his crazy girlfriend. He said as much the last time he saw Frank, and it's obvious that he hasn't shut his father out for good but doesn't feel ready to see him yet. Why can't anyone respect that? Taylor says she has an idea: "What if I were to get involved?" That's not an idea, Taylor -- that's your natural reaction to everything. She says Ryan's been sad lately and she thinks mending his relationship with his father will cheer him up. Well, I'd be sad if I were supposedly the backbone of this show and my last few episodes of it were spent getting jerked around by my girlfriend, too. Frank is more than happy to put his relationship with his son in Taylor's hands.
