Joe is devoted to his new roles as a husband and father, but he worries about Love's dangerous impulsivity. Finally, there is his heart. Could the person he's been looking for all this time be a next-door neighbor? It's one thing to escape from a cage in a basement. But what about the confinement of an ideal marriage to a woman who is aware of your tricks? That'll make for a much trickier escape, I suppose.
