It sounded like "him" and the way he's gone back and forth the last months from being distant to trying to stay involved. That's why I really did expect some sort of morning email from him. (I was expecting him to be more serious because of the distant way he acted last night though.)
Although, I can't imagine the FT would recommend anything to him other than being nice/trying to stay connected. I'd imagine she would tell him that he needs to be more open, etc... I've been gone all afternoon and it's now after 6:00 on a Friday so I imagine she's not in the office any longer to call and ask her.
