MELANIE: That counselling session yesterday packed a wallop.
TOADIE: I would rather not talk about it at all.
Melanie realises it must have been hard on Toadie to talk through it all. Toadie wouldn't have said yes to the session if he'd known they would talk through it all. He is trying to get past and Melanie is in his way.
MELANIE: If we don't talk about it how do we deal with it?
TOADIE: There's nothing to deal with. What has happened has happened. I don't want to dredge up that stuff again.
MELANIE: I broke your heart, I broke my own at the same time. I really underestimated you and your love for me. I am so sorry.

TOADIE: Yesterday something came out and I was terrified that it meant that in some way I might still love her.
He needed to work things out himself before he talked to Terese. He knows the past is coming to the forefront again. Terese wants to know if Toadie loves Melanie. He promises her that part is gone. Instead of anger he needs a new emotion for Melanie. By this time they are staying by Sonya's Wall and Nell is listening in. Terese has been working out the same as Toadie and thinks it's ok not to have arrived at an answer yet. She appreciates his honesty.
TERESE: Whatever you're feeling you don't have to do this by yourself.
He thanks her and they hug.
