I think Chase being able to forgive Hank would have an effect. Chase right now is going through what Hank went through those five hours. He's doing the same exact thing assuming Hank is screwing someone. The difference is Chase has the common sense to see that hank, even if he did sleep with Kevin and regretted, made a mistake. If Hank wants to get back together after that and confesses he slept with him, Chase is compassionate enough to forgive him. He can see what Hank went through, and can snowbank what a little forgiveness can do.
