Drawn to the handsome stranger, they each draw up their list of rules to co-habitate with "no kissing" at the top of Jacquie's list. Of course Choya ignores this rule as often as possible. Jacquie is finally fed up with trying to avoid the handsome man and goes home. Will Choya chase after her? Will Jacquie realize she made a mistake?
