Once Olivia leaves, Alan calls home and gets Lizzie. She tells him that her mom is packing up to move out because she and her father have broken up. Alan decides drastic action is needed to keep Phillip and Olivia apart, so he has his doctor aide him in faking another heart attack right in front of a horrified Olivia. It has exactly the effect that Alan desired on his wayward girlfriend. While gasping and stuttering through his "pain", Alan asks Olivia to marry him, as he may not have long to live and wants to spend it with her as his wife. Olivia says yes.
