- Out of options, the Colonel calls Jake.
- Meanwhile, Miles admits to Takumi that he kissed Alaska; Takumi in turn admits his own crush on Alaska and tells Miles that he doesn't blame him.
- The Colonel comes back and tells them what he learned: Jake gave her the white flowers, they didn't fight, he called on their eight-month anniversary, and he doesn't know why she freaked out.

- But they're still missing a significant something.
