Dave confesses to Susan that he stole Brian’s college ring off his finger because he was seized by an inexplicable belief that the ring belonged to him. Dave has the ring in a drawer in his bedroom, so he goes home to find it. He brings Susan with him, and she meets Dave’s grandmother, who hoped that Susan would be Dave’s father. Susan asks why Dave didn’t say anything when Mark said that no one took the ring, and Dave tells her that he didn’t want to deal with Mark, so he didn’t say anything. While Dave looks for the ring, his grandmother asks Susan if she met Dave’s father, and Susan says she hasn’t and that she understood that Dave’s parents were separated. His grandmother responds that his father has returned and that she has proof of it.

The ring is missing from Dave’s drawer, and Dave accuses his grandmother of taking it. His grandmother believes the ring belongs to his father, her son, because her son went to the same university as Mr. Griffin. When Dave tells his grandmother that it wasn’t his father’s ring and that he found it, his grandmother asks where he found it, and he says he found it on a sidewalk.
