Overview
Edit
Carl Howell was Emma's dentist, whom she has been dating since she found out about Will's activities, which were done behind her back. When Emma told Will about Carl in Journey, they apparently had been dating, every night, for a while, although they had not had sex.
Seeing as she did not reject Will's kiss after his love confession and her stunned look afterward, she appeared to still have feelings for him. However, she continues to date Carl, and their relationship seemed to have a positive effect on Emma, whose obsessive-compulsive disorder became less prominent, allowing her to eat sandwiches with the crust on it and even go to a sticky, dirty movie theater to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
