It's the summer holidays and Connell and Niall arrive at Marianne's family house in Italy. The obvious chemistry between Connell and Marianne causes friction with Jamie, despite Connell's evident happiness with his girlfriend Helen, who he clearly misses.

Peggy cooks the group a lavish meal but tensions run high. During dinner, Jamie drinks too much and picks a fight with Marianne. Connell breaks it up and attempts to soothe Marianne. Marianne stays in Connell's room that night to get away from Jamie. They talk and almost kiss, but Marianne puts a stop to it before it goes any further.
