Carlos makes himself comfortable. It's his house, afterall. He'll give her the five cent tour: it's a small bachelor pad, comfortably furnished, obviously owned by someone young, someone doing well financially, and someone male. Without a doubt, the place is in dire need of a woman's touch.
There are, however, many touching pictures of the Munguia family from times past, framed and mounted throughout the place. The most recent is his med school graduation picture. His grandmother is notably absent from the pose, however.
Feeling his bed calling to him, Carlos will warmly thank Amy for all her help throughout the evening. For her caring, her selflessness, and her courage. "You make me think of what my tia would have been like when she was young," he says, perhaps one of the highest compliments he's ever given. In the end, he won't let her leave without at least a hug and a promise that he won't have to get through the next few days alone.
