Grace and Fefe arrive at the dining room. Fefe wanders off the find herself a seat at one of the unassigned tables. Grace tells her to enjoy and have some fun. The steward walks up and offers to escort Grace to her seat at the Captain's table. As Grace is about to take his arm, another gentleman approaches and says, "Please allow me. I'm heading that way myself." Grace smiles and says "Would be my pleasure, sir" As they walk along and chat, Grace discovers he is an American Diplomat traveling back home to the states after the war. And he learns that this lovely woman whom he watched earlier thru her open door is traveling back home to be near her family again. His hand slides comfortably and softly on the small of her back as they walk and talk. He leans over and takes a whiff of her fragrance, whispering how lickable he finds cinammon. She smiles and whispers back that perhaps something with cinammon may be on the dessert menu for tonight. His hand presses on the small of her back, kneading, slightly. As they approach the table, all the gentlemen stand and bow. She and the woman with all the furs exchange greetings and begin to talk. The tall and kindly Captain Smith approaches the table and introduces himself, telling them he is so pleased they could all join him.

From across the room, Fefe spies Dan....oh no!!! she thinks....he's sitting at Grace's table....what if he tells her about Paris!!!
