After speaking with the pair, Maria returns home and finds Gary and Sarah speaking but looking shifty. Maria places a camera on the side before leaving with some belongings.<\/p>\n

Afterwards, as Gary sees Sarah out, the pair share a hug and agree to speak less from now on, prompting Maria to grow livid.<\/p>\n
