After visiting another restaurant and doing more impersonations, the two of them head back to their rooms and Rob calls his wife wanting to tell her about his news - but she's too busy to talk and he doesn't get a chance to let her know. Steve calls his son Joe, who says he wants to join him in Italy.

Rob reveals that he has got the part in the film he auditioned for.
The next day, Rob and Emma go for a meal together while Steve and Joe go for a swim in the sea. Rob reveals to Emma that he slept with Lucy from the boat trip and asks for advice on whether he should go back to her. Following their swim, Steve tells Joe that he is going to buy a house closer to him - and that he is more than welcome to stay with him if he wants. The sun sets on Rob and Steve's journey as they both consider a different way of living.
