Lee apologizes and offers Mike a partnership in her company...and her hand in marriage.

Janet dates Renaldo and experiences “an ecstasy so exquisite that it was almost unendurable” when he kisses her. Janet decides to break up with Doug but learns Renaldo is a fortune hunter. When Janet gets home, Doug is there and is none the wiser.
