Lulu Questions Dante
In the Quartermaine kitchen, Lulu drops off a box of Valentine’s cupcakes from Eckert’s for Rocco. Dante says he should be down for those in the morning. Lulu asks where he is. Dante explains he’s at a school Valentine’s Day skate thing and crashing with a friend tonight. Lulu thinks her idea was a dumb one, and he was just a kid when he liked these cupcakes. Dante says he still does, but to be honest, he got him these same cupcakes a few years ago and he barely touched them. However, it was because they reminded him of her.
Lulu realizes she doesn’t know her own son anymore. He’s so grown up, and all she has is questions. Dante tells her to fire away, so she asks a ton of questions, such as who his first crush was and how he’s doing in school. Dante answers them and assures her that she’ll catch up in getting to know their son. Lulu realizes Dante was right, and she’s been so focused on Charlotte that she neglected Rocco. She feels she’s failing as a mother, but Dante says that’s not true. He apologizes for making her feel like she was choosing between Charlotte and Rocco. She apologizes for being so stubborn and for not giving Rocco what he needs. Dante says all he needs is his mom. Lulu thinks he needs a better one.
Dante says she is all Rocco needs, and she just needs to be here and love him. He says Rocco has a light in his eye again that he hasn’t seen since he was a kid, and it’s because of her. She thanks him for the pep talk and asks him to make sure Rocco gets the cupcakes. Dante will and says he’ll love them. Dante opens the box and thinks one has his name on it. She says, “Don’t you dare!” and rushes him.
