After Costa and Julie got back Julie went to see Minnie while Costa went to see Criss. He found Criss in Believe just sitting there looking at the floor. "Yo bro!!"Costa called out. Criss looked up and saw Costa. "Hey Cos" he stated sitting there. "What's up with you. You seem down". "Cos do you think I keep my heart closed off?" Criss asked. "Why would you think that you keep your heart closed off for?"Costa asked. "Minnie says I do and I think she's right". "So you haven't had that good luck in love who hasn't"Costa remarked. "It's just weird that you meet this woman who has her heart guarded because of her past and now I met her sister who has good reason to keep her heart guarded but why am I doing it?"Criss asked Costa.

"Because Joann broke your broke your heart and because of your schedule difficulties you couldn't make it work with Holly. Also because you can't tell who loves you for you or Criss Angel"Costa replied. Criss looked at his brother and smiled. Upstairs Minnie and Julie were talking. "So how was your date with Costa?". "It was good but I think it's time to go home to Richmond" Julie stated. "Julie I know we made a pact that we wouldn't interfere in our love life but I think you need to move here". "Minnie we've been through this". "Julie Costa loves you even Criss can see it"Minnie remarked. "I-I-just don't know I-I-I'm scared"Julie stated. "About letting your guard down and letting Costa in" She nodded as tears fell down her face. "Julie if you don't let your guard down you're going to end up like your mother and I know you don't want to end up like your mother"Minnie stated smiling. "What about you and Criss I see a spark between you and him"she remarked smiling. "All right I admit that Angel has helped me let down my guard but as you said I'm scared to let the wall come down".

"Why don't we go talk to the guys" Julie suggested. "All right" and they left. Downstairs Criss and Costa were coming out of Believe when they saw Julie and Minnie sitting in the atrium. They walked over. "Good evening ladies"Costa remarked. "Do you guys mind sitting we want to talk to you" Minnie said and they sat down. "Criss I know you might have feelings for Minnie and Costa I know you have feelings for me". "What we're trying to say is that we're willing to bring the wall down on our hearts" Minnie stated. "So you're willing to give this relationship a chance?"Costa asked. "And Criss if you're willing to be seen with a woman with no legs and stuck in a wheelchair for the rest of her life"Minnie stated. Criss got up and kneeled at the side of the wheelchair. "I don't care what they think Minnie I want to have a relationship with you" and Minnie smiled. Costa got up and walked over to Julie and kissed her which nearly knocked her off her feet for the second time. "I'd move to Richmond for you Julie"Costa said as tears fell down her face.
