"Yes, if Tracy were going to come back to me at all ... he will tonight"

Storyline

Two years earlier, Tracy had kissed her as they strolled along the beach with a full moon rising. Three weeks later, Tracy's company had sent him away and he told her that he was doing it to get a promotion for them. However, three months after that he had sent a note stating that he had met someone else. Years later she thinks she sees Tracy in a crowd. So on the two-year anniversary of that first kiss, she returns to the shore, hoping the full moon will make him remember her.

When Barry starts dating her, she plays with his emotions, running hot and cold.

Alone one night in the beach house, Helena decides to explore the attic. She discovers a phonograph and photo album of a romance that reminds her of her relationship with Arn.
