Following Necj’s advice, and Octavia’s before him, Allan decided to talk to Brytani at last.
Allan: Hey Bryt.
Byrtani: Hey, Al. What are you still doing here, don’t you have to ‘clock in’ at home?
Allan: Yeah, but Necj told me you hadn’t left yet so I thought…. Well, I wanted to…

Given how dazzling Brytani looked that night, Allan couldn’t resist and moved from words to action. But Brytani reacted in time…

Brytani: *Slaps Allan*. You b*stard! What do you think you’re doing??
Allan: Hey, calm down, woman, it was just a kiss…
Brytani: “Just a kiss”. Who the hell do you think you are?
Allan: The father of your daughter…? Ouch! – Come on Bryt, I thought you wanted us to talk.
Bryt: Well, what you just did was certainly not talking!

Brytani: And you don’t get to kiss me, you know? Not if you’re not willing to commit to me and Mercy!
Allan: I’d like to, but you know perfectly well that I can’t – OUCH!
Brytani: Then show respect for what’s left of our friendship and avoid kissing me from now on if you don’t want me to bitch-slap the sh*t out of you, okay?
Allan: Okay. C-can you stop now?

As soon as Brytani stops slapping him…
Allan: (Still stunned). Girl, you do have a heavy hand.
Brytani: (Instantly regretting it). Oh, Al, I’m so, so sorry. I don’t know what got into me.
Allan: That’s okay. I guess I deserved it. And you’re right, I shouldn’t be kissing you. Forgive me, it’s just you look amazing in that dress and, truth be told, I still have feelings for you.
Brytani: No, you forgive me, I should’ve never given such a speech at the award ceremony, it was kind of stupid, it’s just – well, I still have feelings for you too.

Allan: So, how about you forgive me, I forgive you, and we put all this behind us, for our daughter?
Brytani: That’s fine with me.
Allan: No hard feelings then?
Brytani: Not at all. Now, if you’re interested in seeing Mercy, we can go to my house right now. If you’re allowed to, that is.
Allan: Hm, I don’t think there’ll be any problem if I ‘clock in’ a bit later than usual tonight.
