Valerie is shocked and embarrassed by this revelation, realizing she misunderstood the situation and had intruded on a private moment.

Despite her humiliation, Valerie shifts the conversation to a more serious matter, questioning Andrew about his recent fight with Mr. Murphy Senior and expressing a desire for revenge rather than concern for his wellbeing.

She leaves the house with fierce determination, signaling that their conflict is far from over.
