The attack came after a tense confrontation between Dylan and Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey) in the café, which Nina also witnessed.

Viewers will recall that Betsy suffered a stroke after she and Dylan engaged in consensual strangulation during sex. Though only light, the pressure Dylan applied to her neck caused damage to the blood vessels, which ultimately led to the stroke. Following Lauren’s rant, Brody rounded on Dylan in the café, trying to rile him up for a fight. However, Dylan stormed out before the situation escalated. Unfortunately for him, he was unable to avoid further confrontation with Lauren, who warned him to stay away from Betsy, slapping him in the face when he talked down to her in response.
