They talked about how the gazebo was being rebuilt, how Alistair had it leveled, how Luis proposed to her there, how Alistair couldn't hurt them,. Luis pointed out some hyacinths that were blooming. Sheridan said she always thought of her mother when she smelled them and he remembered her because of the color of her eyes matched the color of the flowers. She said it seemed like so long since they'd planted the flowers. He said it was like no time and Sheridan said she was sorry. She said she couldn't change anything now that she's married and pregnant. He wanted to ask one thing before he left. He wanted to know who she loved more-him or Chris. She scrunched up her face and blurted out "Chris." She apologized again and Luis said he wouldn't bother her again. He walked off and Sheridan told him not to go.
