Being so close to Five for so long with no buffer leaves him frayed at the edges. As his resolve begins to wear away, he keeps a white-knuckle grip on himself, but then one night, it all falls apart and leaves him wondering if he's just made the biggest mistake of his life. Or maybe, just maybe, it's the best decision he's ever made.
