In this new environment Dan discovers something about himself; that he knows nothing! Dan wishes he had paid more attention at home so he doesn't look like a complete looney in front of Jacq but especially Naomi. Dan notices everything about Naomi. He finds himself falling hopelessly for her even though she is already in a serious relatioship with someone else. Then one day Naomi and her boyfriend Jason, break-up. "
