"You see what you did?" Ryan asks in amazement. They go to the Pine Cone, kissing as they enter the room. Ryan gets a towel and drapes it over her. Kendall promises to never push Ryan away again. Ryan tells her not to promise anything she can't keep because he is in this for the long haul. Kendall tells him she believes that he loves her. She wants to feel this happy for the rest of her life. Ryan encourages her to call someone and share her happiness. Kendall says she doesn't have anyone to call. Ryan suggests she call her mother. He does not mean Erica, he means her adoptive mother. Kendall hesitates. She says she and her mother don't see eye-to-eye on a lot of things. Her mother's favorite color is beige and she wanted Kendall to be a schoolteacher. "We're not in the same universe," Kendall says. Ryan says she still cares about her. Kendall says she didn't want to talk to her mother until after her trial is over. Ryan tells her to just tell her the good stuff. Kendall calls her mother and tells her she's getting married. She says she'll keep her posted and hopes she can make it there. After hanging up, Kendall thanks Ryan for making her do that. She admits she had been close to calling her mother before but her mother always had a sound of disappointment in her voice and she didn't want to hear that again. Ryan says it's his turn to make a call. He wants to call Chris. Kendall doesn't want him to. Chris hates her and he'll try to talk him out of it. Ryan says there is no way he can do that. Since Kendall is going to be his daughter-in-law he'll have to accept her. Ryan calls Chris's room and Erica answers the phone. He tells Erica he has some news. When Erica asks what the news is, Ryan says he wants to talk to Chris. Chris gets on the phone and Ryan tells him the news immediately. Chris asks Ryan to come over so they can talk about it but Ryan says it's not up for debate. Chris says he can't marry a woman who's going to jail but Ryan says she won't go to jail. Chris at least asks for Ryan to wait until after Kendall's trial on July 5. Ryan excitedly proclaims that Chris has given him the wedding date ? the day before the trial starts. They hang up and Chris tells Erica his son is throwing away his life. Ryan tells Kendall that if Chris and Erica want to bring her down, they'll have to go through her husband first.
