On Emma's 21st birthday, Alan woke her up with a french toast breakfast and mimosa before taking her on a scavenger hunt all over Dayton. They revisited the places that held their favorite memories from the past three years of being together. For the final clue, Alan took Emma to a place that they had never been to before. It was here that Alan led Emma to a beautiful, secluded area where there was a guitar waiting. He grabbed the guitar and sang a song that he had been writing for the previous year. Once he sang the last verse, he grabbed the ring, knelt down on one knee, and asked Emma to be his bride.
