He tells Myra that him and Stefan is starring in a French version of Coke called "La Pop".

Stefan feels guilty for Steve in having to gone through such horrible parents and realizes why he likes being around Carl and his family They were the closest family members Steve has.

He puts him in the car telling him he don't want to attract a crowd. Steve tries to correct him, but it was a matter of time before Gilbert got fed up and put him in the car. They take him to a Paris Opera Center. Steve asks why are they going there and he says so people won't hear him scream. Steve tries to correct him again when he says scream wrong but this time Gilbert caught him on the 3rd time he tried to do it.
