Summay
Justin proclaims to Danny that he's in love with Nicki, unaware that Nicki has walked up behind him. Justin then proclaims his love to Nicki's face, but she simply responds, "Cool." Danny advises Justin to remain aloof and Nicki will come around, but that backfires. Nicki finally says "I love you" to Justin, explaining she was afraid to respond the first time because she has to leave Detroit for a while to care for her ailing mother. Meanwhile, the gang begins to notice that Burski is "accidentally" touching Leslie's body a lot lately.
