Ethan dares not fail the provost's daughter expectation to go steady and exclusive and resumes Libby's fertility treatment, which William called futile, and proves successful again. Feeling frustrated and lonely, Austin re-finds his libido in an affair with the provost's adulterating wife Margaret Scully.
