At age 22, Cherry nervously attends Baashir’s fondue party and befriends a professional in the insurance industry named Eliza and the man who will become her first husband, David Smith.
On Ethan’s 30th birthday, Ethan gets a text from Harvey’s sister, Lila. Jasmine reveals that she has broken up with Carter, who is not taking the breakup well and is becoming “stalkerish.”
David Smith, a cardiologist, is handsome and half Korean. He drives Cherry home from the fondue party and takes her out the next weekend. She sleeps with him, and they begin a relationship based largely on sexual desire. They marry a year later, and when Cherry gets food poisoning on their honeymoon, he takes up scuba diving instead of staying with her in the hotel room.
