Hassan begins to tell Shazia a bit about his past, how he met his wife at University. She changes the subject when she sees it’s becoming difficult for him though. She suggests going out that weekend but won’t make up her mind where or when. Hassan suspects there is a reason she seems to want things to be just right. When he checks her medical records later they confirm that Sunday is Shazia’s birthday. He teases her at first, claiming he can’t see her on Sunday because he’s spring cleaning with Imran. Then he confesses he knows it’s her birthday and says he’s taking her to dinner to celebrate.
