He helps Bentley put his tooth under the pillow. He asks how it went and she says she talked to Jen who suggested email. He says it’s not a bad idea and the worst thing is that he would just put it in spam. She says if this doesn’t work she’s done with Ryan. Taylor says as long as she has Bentley she’s not done with that.
