This episode reveals the origins of the protagonists Edith and Nolan's marriage through a cross-narrative between the present and the past (three years ago). Three years ago, to continue being a firefighter and avoid taking over the family business, Nolan entered into a platonic, loveless, and emotionless contract marriage with the financially struggling Edith, mistakenly believing she married him for money. However, in the present, Edith, suffering from a head injury, reveals her lifelong secret love for Nolan through internal monologue. At the end of the episode, Edith takes the initiative to break the contract and kisses Nolan in the bathroom upon his return home, leaving a cliffhanger for their relationship's development.
