While enjoying lunch, George, Laura, and Spencer went on with their conversation as new friends. The former shared with the latter about how he became an adoptive father to his daughter after meeting and becoming close with her at the orphanage last year. She, in turn, told Spencer about how thankful she was for all that George has done for her so far, to which he was deeply touched. Spencer then asked, "What are you planning to do after this?" George replied, "We'll be taking a hike at Clent Hills as part of our adventure here in Birmingham." Laura nodded in agreement. Spencer remarked, "Nice! That sounds exciting!" George said, "Absolutely!" Spencer added, "And since we are now mates, I'll give you four calling cards so that I can send you free chocolates whenever you'd like. The three are for your bandmates." George replied, "Jolly good! John, Paul, and Ringo will surely love this." Laura added, "Plus, they'll always be fresh from the factory!" Spencer replied, "That's correct!" He then handed George the cards and were placed in his shirt pocket alongside the city map. After finishing everything and paying for their food several minutes later, Spencer said, "Well, I gotta go back to work now. Thank you so much again for your kind help earlier. It means a lot!" George said, "It was me great pleasure, mate! I just had to do the right thing by lending a helping hand." Laura added, "And thanks for being our guide in the tour. We had so much fun!" Spencer smiled and replied, "You're welcome! I'm glad to know that. I really am." And so, they said their goodbyes. George couldn't help but smile as Spencer left the restaurant, and Laura thought, "George truly is the best father ever. He's setting an example for me to follow when I grow up. How wonderful!"

Two days after recording the demo, Brian came to the lads with a piece of paper and a smile.
"Lads, Madison Square Garden is having a concert to support up-and-coming bands in the area, as long as they've got enough attention to bring in an audience. I've just been to talk to the manager to see if you qualify, and he says the public would love to have you there. It pays quite a lot and there will be some important music industry folk watching this."
At this point his words were drowned out by the sound of four happy lads cheering and also expressing their joy by throwing pillows at each other.
Meanwhile, other things were happening in the city to make the lads less joyful if they'd known about them.
The stern-looking policeman was talking seriously to Jim and the Harrisons. "Not to worry, sirs and madam. We're on it. As soon as we hear of those Beatles playing anywhere else, we'll send some men over. You'll have your sons back soon enough."
