When the group returns to the path, the two men try to figure out what's going on between the two of them. They realize that they're not the same person they were before they met, and they decide to try and act like they are. They try to pretend like they don't know each other, but they can't figure out how to talk to each other. Finally, they ask each other if they can stop talking about the other. The two men agree that it's fine to talk about each other - they've been friends since they were in high school - but that they need to stop acting like they know the other one. They both realize that it would be nice if they could grow closer, and that's what they'll try to do. They're both sorry that they acted the way they did, but what is the point of acting like you have the answer? It's not that they didn't have a relationship before, but that their relationship is different now. They agree to try to be friends.
