It all started in Seattle.

Most stories start for me in Seattle since I live here and I write about the

city for the Seattle True Press Weekly.

As a journalist, I'm skeptical by nature, but I guess I also have

I cared enough about my boyfriend to agree to go on this weird yoga retreat

him. I even set up a free practice yoga session.

So that's where I was. I was finishing a story when this story began.

Any interference the universe may bring us.

Hey.

Hey.

One more time.

Dana.

Dana, please.

Sorry. No talking.

Inhale. Inhale.

Guys, don't worry. I finished by the deadline.

Finally. And everyone, center your torsos.

Sorry,

I just... Please mute all your

devices before we roll onto our backs. Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

And breathe in.

I gotta go.

No. Dana.

Please. Come on. Pull this up.

Okay.

You know where we're going with that.

Sorry.

Thank you. Bye.

Are you okay?

Why did you leave?

Oh, Catherine texted.

I just need to get back to, uh...

The office, so I can finish everything so I won't be distracted on our trip,

okay?

Hey, I'll pick you up at 6 .30 tomorrow, okay?

Okay.

Bye. Are you my ride chair?

Dana? Yeah, Ian?

Yeah. Hi.

Yeah, hi.

Hi. Yeah, hi.

You should put your seatbelt on, then.

Oh.

Sir, are we... Ian.

Ian, are we going anywhere?

Eventually, but not yet.

Oh, you have a box in.

Okay.

Catherine. Hey.

Great article, Dana. Get your ASAP. I want to talk to you about Esteban

Gonzalez. He's the founder of Insight. Yes.

Did you say Insight? Are you talking about Insight?

Mm -hmm, yeah.

Have you seen the latest update?

Yeah, right.

Take a picture of anything, a plant, a chair, a weird bug, it'll give you an

encyclopedia on it. I can pull an all -nighter on this, no problem. No, it's

immediate. It's just another disposable app. Uh, no, it's like Shazam for

everything. Yeah, I'm with Ian on this one. I think Ensign's pretty cool. Try

Intelligence Tranquilizer for the entire populace, Catherine. Oh, that's Ian.

But for the latest update, it can tell you crazy things, like, do you have full

range of motion with your left thumb? It misrecognizes objects all the time.

That's being fixed.

There is no way an app like this is not a data heist on everyone.

Watch this.

Okay, I'll talk to you soon.

Bye.

I'm sorry, what?

Never mind.

Do you mind if I add a stop so I can pull by my place and pick up some

Uh, we're not going anywhere.

Yeah.

Okay, maybe I'll just walk.

It's great to meet you.

You too. I'd tell you to drive safely, Ian, but at this point, I hope he just

gets to drive.

Insight was the newest app to take Seattle by storm. The world by storm. It

already bigger than all other social media platforms.

But something fishy was going on, and I was going to prove it.

Brad wants to talk to you in his office. We're going all the way up with this?

Yep.

Wait, are you ready for Bali?

Haven't thought about it yet. You leave tomorrow.

It's yoga on the beach.

You hate yoga. But I like Indonesian beaches.

And it's important to John. Yeah, it's worth it for the beaches.

We think the Insight Cap is intruding into users' privacy significantly.

Maybe illegally.

I knew it.

This is a great story.

Especially considering how reclusive their CEO Esteban Gonzalez is. The man

ghost online.

We haven't even been able to find any pictures of him. Can you get me 2 ,000

words for next week's issue?

I would love to.

Mr. Tiffin, but I'm going on my first vacation I've had since starting here.

can't let this slip through our fingers. The public needs to know now. I can't

wait. I can give it to somebody else. Well, I can help cover Dana, handle the

research back here. I could write in my downtime.

Yes, you can relax and work at the same time.

Right.

John will be missed.

So, no.

He'll understand.

Yes. So you'll do it. If I deliver on this, I want front page feature and

headline.

Okay, deal.

Go.

This is going to be huge, Catherine.

I do need to make sure to dedicate time for John, for real.

Don't worry, girl. I got your back on this.

We still have a lot. do. And we get it done, okay?

I packed my swimsuit.

Wait, you're not sure?

No, I just tossed things in a bag in a hurry to get to the office. Well, when

you leave?

About four and a half hours. Athena, just go. I've got you covered.

It's fine. John's picking me up here.

John.

No, of course not. I'm just... deleting Gs.

You're late.

Sorry, I worked an all -nighter.

I put my sunglasses on and slept the whole flight. I must have sleepwalked

of the airport, but I jolted awake when I stepped outside.

Why is it so cold?

I'll grab you a jacket from your bag.

I didn't bring one.

Did you bring a jacket to Canada?

Do we have a layover?

Where do you think we're going, Dana?

El Pacifico Resort and Spa in Flores Island, Indonesia.

Dana?

El Pacifico Resort and Spa in Flores Island, Canada.

What happened to the most beautiful island in the tropics?

There were never any tropics.

I notified the State Department we were going to Indonesia. I extended my cell

plan to include Indonesia. I exchanged $2 ,000 into Indonesian rupees. That's

like 30 million rupees. Did you listen to any of my plans?

I listened to everything you say.

I've seen that guy before.

What is happening?

Moose jerky.

They're handing him out of customs.

Thank you.

That's another thing. El Pacifico?

In Canada?

Los Angeles is in America.

That's not weird.

So cold my face hurts.

Warmest thing I brought is a little wrap thing.

You know these tour buses always have lots of pounds. Maybe they have

warm? Huh. That's a good idea.

Thanks.

Yogis. All staring at me like I was from Mars.

This was going to be one long bus ride.

You must be John

and Donna? Dana.

I'm Nicola. I'll be leading the retreat.

Namaste. Have we met before?

I get that a lot. I used to be on that TV show.

Yeah. Oh, I can't remember the name. You were... Angela. Yeah, the best friend.

That was inspiring.

Oh, thank you. No, no, the appreciation is mine, really.

Well, we're just waiting on one more yogi, and then our adventure will begin.

All right.

Namaste. Namaste.

Hey, namaste, namaste.

What was that?

What?

There was something familiar about that guy. He was so good looking and

unnecessarily nice. I was immediately suspicious.

Namaste.

We shared that ride share to nowhere, right?

Yes.

Because?

What a coincidence.

Deepak Chopra would say there are no coincidences.

The synchronicity is all around us.

It's my first yoga retreat.

Oh, man, I wish I could go back to my first time.

Oh,

the last tour group left. The driver said you can keep him.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

I think I'll take a very blissed nap.

Good call.

I've got... deep thought loud through the breeze.

We drove deep into the Canadian wilderness.

What I wouldn't have given for a Bali beachside Mai Tai.

There was Nicola, the guru, Quinn and Felix, the rock stars, and Harriet and

Raymond, perpetually young at heart.

What had I gotten myself into?

I was isolated in the uncharted middle of nowhere like an arctic explorer in

olden days.

But with Hippie.

And what was that guy's name again?

I'm Dana.

Stefan. Nice to meet you, Stefan. Yes.

Where are you from?

I actually think of myself as a citizen of the world.

But mostly Australia.

Oh.

Stefan from Australia, but also the world. What do you do?

I actually don't like to talk about work at a retreat.

I just find that work divides us into classes, but yoga's a great equalizer.

Sure.

What else are you into?

I'm actually getting into biohacking my digestive system.

I can't get a signal out here. You're not going to need it for this next week.

Yeah.

Catherine's supposed to send me some research.

You agreed to take the week off.

I know.

You know, the world.

The world what?

Well, the world doesn't take a week off.

Welcome, everyone.

In the tradition of the Indus Valley monks who forged yoga as a practice 5

years ago, we'll begin this retreat by hiking all the way to the lodge.

This will bring us into a mindset of simplicity and isolation, which will

us all week.

Shall we?

So we hiked and hiked and hiked

for hours.

But I'm a trooper.

We had so much.

I can handle it.

Just off -roading my carry -ons.

I've got to make a call.

You've got to hike, Dana.

Just go on ahead without me. I'll catch up.

I had a bar back there.

You're not going to find a signal.

Yeah, he's right. There's no service.

Hey, Dana, just be careful, okay?

This is important.

No, it isn't.

Well...

That's really bad.

You brought your work computer?

Come on. I need it.

What? We're done.

Done hiking?

No, it's over, okay?

Wait, are you breaking up with me?

I wasn't sure it was over.

Now I am.

As we walk up the hill, remember we are all hashtag blessed.

You've never had a breakup until you've been dumped in front of a bunch of

strangers far away from home and important work you desperately need to

Let me tell you, it's the caviar of heartbreaks.

You might be able to save your phone.

I have a laptop, too.

Of course you do. Thank you.

Is there a ferry or seaplane out of here?

No.

Search and rescue.

Blood dog.

The bus won't return until Friday.

Naturally.

What's the Wi -Fi password? That's been disconnected for the benefit of all

attendees. So I'm trapped.

So where can I sleep?

All of our rooms are full.

But we do have the cozy suite available.

Wonderful. Excellent choice, Dana.

That'll be $200 a night in advance, please.

You wouldn't happen to accept Indonesian rupiahs, would you?

Hey.

I'm looking for the cozy suite.

Just down there, around the corner.

Thanks. So, Sean has asked not to be your yoga partner this week.

Big surprise.

So it looks like we've been paired up.

Why you?

Because I'm all that's left.

Why are you alone on a couple of yoga retreats?

Because I'm not in a relationship.

Obviously. But you're bright and early.

Can't wait.

I was determined.

I would make this retreat work for me while getting some work accomplished.

But it's hard to write about technology without any technology to write on.

Ugh. Crystals.

Why do people buy these things?

They're shiny and pretty.

I mean, the place wasn't that bad.

At least it was kind of pretty.

Cozy, even.

In a weirdo, zen way, whatever that means.

And there was a kitchen.

Which meant hot food, and more importantly, coffee.

I needed...

Coffee.

Get ready to find life.

I did my first yoga retreat two years ago.

Met Quinn here.

Yoga cleansed my soul and my body.

Every day, I never look back.

Is there coffee?

Oh, no, no, no. They don't serve anything habit -forming.

Except for the yoga.

Oh. Excuse me. Oh, don't sweat it, kid. I'm 65 years old, and I've never felt

better. What about falling?

It's got that second that I felt.

Hey.

Still here?

Maybe I want to be here.

How was the honeymoon suite?

Yeah, it was harmonious.

You gonna attempt to participate? I mean, can you even hack it, Dana?

Can I hack it?

What is this, the Marines?

This is novice yoga.

Look me in my eyes and tell me I can't do this.

I'm just going to live enough.

You ready, partner?

Let's do it. I love starting the day with yoga.

Really gets the blood flowing.

Uh -huh.

Dana, are you here right now?

Dana, look at me.

I have Wi -Fi.

Really? What's your yoga experience level?

Where? Would you say it's like an intermediate, yogi advanced?

Is there a bunny slope version?

It's okay to be a beginner.

But you need to be present so we can trust each other.

You want to take your sweatshirt off?

Excuse me?

It's hot yoga, Dana.

Oh.

I can't take my sweatshirt off.

Guess we'll fluff it together.

Namaste, humans.

Namaste.

Greetings from the universe.

My soul to yours.

We'll begin in Lotus, back to back.

Inhale, raise the arms overhead, bring the gaze to the thumbs, and hold.

Exhale, stretch the arms outwards, interlock hands with your partners, and

to the left. For two, three, four.

Release your partner's hands.

Moving through tabletop, press into down dog.

And walk your hand towards your feet.

Roll up slowly, vertebrae by vertebrae.

Face your partner.

Three namaskar, sun salutation, inhale.

Just follow me.

Flat back lift, palms come to shin. And deep forward fold.

Lunge to plank.

Shatter on the flow.

It's 105 and we're exercising in sweatshirts.

Down dog into three -legged dog.

And step forward.

Warrior one.

Move back to back. Warrior two.

Is everyone sweating as much as I am? Don't worry about everyone else.

hands with your partner and face heads the same direction.

Cheek to cheek.

So when's breakfast?

Focus. Move down to triangle pose.

Four, two, three, four.

And back up.

Slipping. I'm going down. Back on the mat.

Now into flying warrior.

Bases on your back.

Feet up.

Flyers. Lean forward.

That's you. You're the flyer. What's a flyer? You ready?

Come.

Now reach out straight and let go of your base's hand.

Don't you tell me what to do. Dana.

Maybe you should sit this one out. You can hurt yourself. I can do this.

You are now a flying warrior.

Move into Savasana.

Corpse pose.

She called it corpse pose.

appropriate since I felt like I was about to die.

I wondered if I could will myself back into civilization where all of the

scandals and corruption and the killer story on In Psych made me the happiest.

You alright?

I just need to take a shower.

Breakfast first. Come on.

When I hacked my digestive system... Okay, I just need to hack my sticky

grossness. We're all sweaty, Dana.

Listen, you could hurt both of us today.

I need you to be present with me. I'm sorry.

Hi. You two are making breakfast?

We're making every meal.

Stefan always says we should experience everything in this life. Yeah, so we're

experiencing being vegan chess for the first time.

Oh, here.

Vegan bacon and egg peach. There you go.

The secret ingredient?

Passion.

Thanks for the experience.

I felt a real strong connection with your vinyasa.

Me too.

Yeah? Yeah.

You believe in telepathy?

Wait, don't answer that.

Come here.

Okay.

Amazing, huh?

Mm -hmm.

You know, for your first time ever doing yoga?

Not bad.

You should have seen Felix's first time. That was bad.

It wasn't exactly my first time.

Well,

then it can only get better from here.

Again? Definitely.

Enjoying the feast?

Vegan quiche tastes a lot like plastic trying to be quiche. I think it's

delicious. You haven't had any yet.

It's so nutritious.

No one describes food they like as nutrition.

Come on.

Raymond and Harriet.

It's so sweet.

But does that mean they're a good cook?

Probably.

Have mine.

You need the nutrition.

Hack your system, Stefan.

Reprogram your hard drive.

This is a week to try something unique.

Increase your bandwidth, Dana.

Unless you're not adventurous.

I'm here, aren't I?

Come on. This will give you some more stories for your next barbecue.

I'd better get super -powered than this.

Now what?

I don't get this culture.

Like what?

Like everything.

aromas and crystals and all these wacky phrases like asana, vinyasa, vegan

lasagna. If it isn't in Sanskrit, it's cow face or up dog. What is up dog?

Not much. What's up with you?

I just spent $72 at the trading post on a bar of soap and a travel -sized bottle

of shampoo.

And it's the weird -smelling chemical -free stuff that belongs in a swamp.

What do you normally use?

The normal chemical stuff.

But I smell like a gym floor right now, so I'll take what I can get.

Well, enjoy this one.

Watch out, world.

I am...

The only clue I had was a text from Catherine from before I dunked my phone.

said, call me immediately. The Ensight story is exploding.

But there was no signal.

Or was there?

No, nothing.

The view wasn't half bad.

I was actually enjoying it. Until I saw John and Nicola together.

That's definitely more than a student guru relationship.

And why was he wearing all those beans?

And where was Stefan going?

Everybody here was hiding something.

Especially Stefan.

I tracked him.

Because after 24 hours in the northern badlands without phone, Wi -Fi, and

coffee, I had become like a hunter. And I had learned to track my prey.

Here, fishy, fishy, fishy.

Come to mama.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, thanks. This is exactly what I need.

Yeah, good.

Hypocrite!

You naughty little meat -eater!

I want to know what you're talking about. What's behind your back?

The farts?

Your hands.

Let me see them.

Alright, what do you want?

A bite.

Or I'm going to reveal you as the duplicitous carnivore you are.

Yeah.

You are the worst kind of phony.

Pretending to be all enlightened.

Okay, and you're the one that's spying on a stranger.

It's in my blood.

Remember me?

You rode in my car two days ago. I mean, we didn't go anywhere, but... What are

you doing in Hal's vegan retreat?

He seems enthusiastic.

Off to do a job.

I thought you weren't working on this retreat.

No.

I didn't expect to get flown to Canada the next day, first class.

First class?

It's part of my biohacking regimen. How can you possibly lecture me on feeble

vegan bacon when you're having burgers flown in first class?

Okay, you're not wrong.

But these burgers are from a great family -run restaurant a couple of times

over. Godot Ambogueta.

They could die for.

I'm going to expose you to everyone.

You promised.

It's not what you think.

What do I think?

I don't know.

I find things out, Stefan.

And the next time Ian brings dos hamburguesas, it better be dos.

Dos hamburguesas.

Yeah, go ahead. This is a hamburger straight down.

And a milkshake.

19 cents.

Plus some churros.

This is blackmail now.

What do you know about Stefan?

Ooh, is someone on the rebound?

Ooh.

I'm just curious because we're partnered up. That's all.

Well, I know all the dirt on Stefan.

Really?

He's a Gemini. But more importantly, he has an underactive throat chakra.

Which is so interesting because his aura is mostly blue.

I'll tell you what I know.

Do tell.

He's a single man at a couple's retreat.

Got that far.

That should tell you everything you need to know. Like what?

He's a mystery, an enigma.

Puzzle without pieces.

Also, he has burgers smuggled in.

He thinks nobody knows, but we all do. We all know, Dana.

Super.

She still there?

When I came back to my room, somebody had broken in to give me a gift basket

wonderful -smelling carcinogen -filled shampoos and body washes.

And exactly $72 in U .S. cash.

The precise amount I spent on that strange natural... soap, if you can

call it that.

It could only be Stefan.

But why would he be so generous in such a bizarre way?

You got it.

Hey, you got it.

No. Go ahead.

Hey.

I can't.

I wanted to be present and trust him in the moment. I just couldn't.

Sorry.

I came out here to clear my mind.

I needed to meditate.

Everything got too crazy back home.

I just needed to escape for a bit to think, to feel, and to figure it all

This is one of my favorite places on earth.

I know every tree, every branch, every stream.

This is where I go to when I want to be alone.

When I want to unplug.

I just didn't expect to connect with Dana.

You're wasting your time.

Returning to the scene of the crime?

I came here to clear my mind.

Wait, like meditate for real?

You think something nefarious would be happening? Yeah, like hot dog eating.

Would you like to join me? No, not really.

Okay. How do I do it?

Relax, if you can.

Do I have to cross my legs? Just get comfortable, Dana.

Okay. We're going to think through our breathing. You know I don't believe in

any of this, right? You know I'm not asking you to believe in anything. I'm

asking you to breathe.

And listen.

Can you do that?

Maybe.

All right.

I'm going to shut my eyes.

I'm going to focus on my breathing.

You're welcome to join me on them.

Okay?

Am I doing it right? Dana, shut up in a nail.

Can you see me? I can feel you.

You're like a human security camera.

Well, I take that as a compliment.

That

was

actually nice.

Oh, really?

So why do you meditate?

My life is super stressful. I have a ton of people who rely on me, so I have to

keep my mind sharp, especially these days.

So I have to stop and meditate a lot.

I'm the opposite.

Your life isn't stressful?

No, I believe in plowing through stress, conditioning yourself to take it, like

a battering ram.

Cute one.

That sounds awful.

Well, it keeps me sane.

You are so food judgmental.

Think that back.

Okay, I'll remove the word food. How about that? I'm not judgmental.

I'm experienced.

Experienced? I'll have you know that there was a time I considered becoming a

food critic.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize I was in the presence of an expert.

I didn't say I was an expert. No, no, no, no. An almost food critic.

If you establish opinions based on the scientific examination of life, why

retest failed experiments?

Dana, you have opinions on tons of stuff that you've never tried.

Okay. If I'm judgmental, you're a box of secrets in a safe under a concrete

vault.

I am an open book.

Really?

Okay.

Stefan, tell me about your job.

I don't want to talk about work at a yoga retreat, but that doesn't mean

anything. You're turning this around on me, but we were talking about your

judgmentalism. Now we're talking about you.

I bet you're a dynamo poker player.

Actually. I don't gamble. I love poker.

Reading people.

Finding out what they're hiding.

Exposing them.

Did you know that everyone here knows that you sneak in burgers?

You told them. I didn't say anything.

I thought I was good at keeping that discreet.

Apparently not.

Apparently not.

It's a beautiful face.

Dang. What?

We're late for the retreat drum circle.

Hurry up. Go get your djembe.

My djembe.

You didn't bring your djembe?

I'd look it up on my phone. All right.

Come with me.

How long are you staying here?

You have a drum library in your library library.

Take your pick.

I don't want to miss this.

Come on.

You'll need this.

Come on.

It was wonderful to see how much fun they were all having. How free everyone

was. And that they welcomed me in as much as they welcomed Stefan.

I am so good at you. Do it, do it. You can't get me until you howl at the moon.

Do you really want me to jump?

It's just one last ritual to complete.

Come on, Dana. Are you really going to let us out? Come on, Dana.

Stand up and blow us away.

All right.

That

was

so wimpy.

How would you do it? Oh, child.

All right, yeah Yeah, but you're holding back.

You're relentless.

I do my best next

You've all done hot yoga.

This is cold yoga. Cold yoga?

Why are we doing this to ourselves?

It'll be fun.

Oh, thank you. Three degrees above absolute zero.

Thirty -four degrees.

Nothing.

We can just shut the windows and turn on the heat.

Through the cold, we'll all be in a heightened state of awareness.

Let's begin.

Sun salutation.

Inhale.

How is everyone else kneeling in this gold yoga thing? Lunge to plank,

chaturanga.

Are you all right?

I'm just so cold.

I'm like a piece of deli meat in a vodka bite.

Hey.

Oh, she's really cold. We need echinacea supplements.

It's okay. I'll just take it in my steam room.

Dana, we're going to hop up.

Come here.

Ready? Yeah. I got you.

Personal steam room, huh?

What else you got in here? A brewery?

Duty -free shop?

Take your time.

Meditate.

Thank you.

I really wasn't planning on snooping on Stefan.

But there I was.

By myself.

Just innocently glancing around his room.

Something about what they drill into you at journalism school.

That there's always a story waiting around the corner. You just have to keep

your eyes open.

And boy, oh boy, was there a story.

I knew I shouldn't have looked.

But when a book has a wire coming out of it...

Something's going on under the surface.

I had to know what he was hiding.

Oh, you've got to change your passcode, man.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are back in business.

Dana, how's it going in there?

Stefan, uh, I'm not dressed.

Uh, can you come back?

Are you okay? I heard a loud crash.

Did you hurt yourself?

No, no, just, uh, getting dressed in here.

Thanks for the theme.

Anytime.

Dana? Where have you been?

The hotel said you never checked in, so now the entire American embassy in

Indonesia is searching for you.

I'm in Canada.

Long story.

Oh.

Well, then why didn't you respond?

I couldn't get service. Just update me.

Okay.

The New York Bureau Online broke the story. It seems that NSIC has been

accessing users' cameras, and there may have been a potential data breach.

We just missed the boat on this.

I may have something.

Even better, Catherine, a guy here somehow has an entire folder of

and plans from Insight for, I think, exactly that.

Oh, wow.

Okay, Dana, you may have just stumbled into the potential whistleblower of the

decade. Okay, you know what to do.

Yeah.

Oh, one other thing.

John and I broke up.

Oh, hon, I am sorry.

It's, uh, it's actually okay.

All right.

Good night.

I didn't know how you liked it.

Thank you.

Hmm.

This is amazing.

This is my favorite pool in Russia.

Which one?

Oh, Mr.

Mysterious.

I wonder if Insight would work on that.

You ever use it?

Sometimes.

Jade. Roasters.

See you in the studio.

It was an odd retreat.

But I have to admit, it was starting to grow on me.

What is going on here?

What? You're sitting in the Lotus.

That's not proper yoga -hating posture.

Kind of relaxing.

What did you do with Dana?

Haven't you guys ever thought that some of this stuff was a little weird? Oh,

you know what I thought was weird? What?

Everything's in Sanskrit.

I mean, I get why now.

But at first, I thought the only people who spoke Sanskrit were yoga

instructors.

Well, what made me uncomfortable at first was yoga pants.

Yes. Really? I was terrified to wear them in public. Now I don't think I own

anything else. Oh, yeah. I didn't want to do yoga for years because I didn't

want to be the old lady in a room full of hotties in the yoga pants. But now I

dare those 21 -year -old size nothings to feast their eyes on grandma.

Yes, mama.

You quit being suspicious of the quirks and then you embrace the quirks. It's

like when you love someone, you can't stop looking at them.

Warrior one.

Move back to back. Warrior two.

Interlock hands with your partner and face head in the same direction, cheek

cheek.

Now into triangle pose.

Four, two, three, four.

And back up.

Face is on your back.

You ready?

Yes.

Flyer, lean forward.

Now reach your legs out straight.

Now flying warrior, fly.

You sure?

I'm going to try. Trust me.

I dare you.

So? What do you have for me?

Is there a problem?

Here's the thing. My source.

We've been spending a lot of time together.

I see.

Is there something going on between you and the source?

The marine?

Oh, that's fantastic.

Really? Yes. I mean, you definitely have to curb that. It's totally

unprofessional, but I am happy for you. You are?

Yes. I mean...

I thought you'd be moping around about John.

I never really liked him for you.

I thought you liked John.

He's nice, but he's just a little all over the place.

But seriously, do not get involved with this sort. It always blows up in your

face. You know this from experience?

Yeah, don't change the subject.

What is he like?

Intelligent, kind of earthy, but in a good way, not like John.

When I'm with him...

I'm a lot less skeptical about everything.

I am happy for you, but do not let this get in the way of the story. I can't

hold Tiffin off any longer.

You need to confront your source.

Let me dig further. What are you kidding?

Tiffin will lose it if you sit on this.

He's already blaming your trip for the Bureau beating us.

Give me more time. Find out if your source is credible or not.

ASAP. I love you, but get it done.

If you ever want to go on tour, we'll hook you up. You in a band?

We sell insurance.

We go on tour of these great properties.

I, um, have to meditate right now.

I think she's interested.

So much for sneaking out.

Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana.

Hey.

John? I want you to know, Nicola, she's wise.

She's very wise.

Okay. And as part of my spiritual awakening, I've decided to relinquish

What does that mean?

Yeah, I wanted to inform you about her wisdom before I began this odyssey,

which, if I'm anywhere near as successful as I was in my previous life,

With glass mirrors.

Hmm.

I must.

What did I do now?

I have to tell you something.

You love Canada.

I stumbled onto your iPad at the end of the night.

Stumbled?

And there are a couple of things, really.

First of all, I can't believe you've been holding out on me Wi -Fi -wise. I

starving in the tundra out here.

This isn't the time for that. It is for me.

The world's not going to end because you don't have a phone for a few days.

I'm a journalist.

Everything is urgent.

You're a journalist?

Yeah. In psych.

What about it?

I'm being honest and direct here.

There you guys are.

Dos, dos, number gases.

They're kind of cold, sorry. I can tell you already, this is going to be the

best burger of my life.

Oh man, I forgot the sodas and churros. I'll be back.

Stefan. I know you hate insight.

I saw the folders on your iPad.

Wow.

It's very intrusive, Dana.

I know. I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

I've been investigating in psych. I know they're spying on users.

But you spying on me is okay. It was an accident. You accidentally went through

my iPad. You accidentally read my private documents. No, I didn't read

them. Is that why you're here?

No. No. John dragged me here. This was a total coincidence. Sorry.

Accidentally dropped the sodas on the churros.

I'm really sorry.

Stefan.

Stefan, come back. You know nothing about Ensign.

Then tell me. I came here to get away from all of this.

It's been completely blown out of proportion. This is going to be a big

Stefan. I can help protect you.

You know what? This week is all about building trust.

But obviously, that's beyond you.

It's frustrating.

It's just really stunning to look.

I know what that's like. Really?

I was in a relationship.

Katie.

Met her on an online role -playing game.

Katie and I partnered up.

Quested together for a while.

It was great.

She was a wizard at logic puzzles, but like a noob at stashing gold.

And she wanted me to share my gold, but I'd been saving it up for a year.

It was only how far I could carry you, you know.

What does that mean in English?

I had to let her go.

Oh.

So Katie stopped chatting with me, and then, like a week later, I was

outlogicked in a dungeon duel and lost all my gold anyway.

Really?

If I'd just been willing to share some of my loot, I'd still have her and my

rank.

But... The right thing was just too hard to do at the time.

Regret is worse than anything.

You know what?

You're oddly making sense.

I provide.

Get ready for a sound bath.

Are you ready to transcend?

to a plane of consciousness with wind chimes and Tibetan healing bowls? Yes.

Dana.

No, you go first.

No, you go first.

Okay.

Dana, I'm ready to talk to you about insight.

What?

I'm ready to talk to you about insight.

You are?

Yeah.

Okay.

Do you want to do a sound path first?

Nicola's pretty pumped about it.

Come on.

Hey, guys.

Hey. Come on in. Join us. Can I sit here?

Grab a seat. Grab a bell.

I'm getting pretty good at this.

Feeling. Less enlightened and more like a cat with a string.

So what's your role with the company?

I need it to be anonymous.

I don't want to expose my co -workers.

Okay, fine.

But I need to know.

I won't print it. You'll be a confidential source.

Founder and CEO.

Esteban Gonzalez is...

No one calls

me Esteban, but lawyers are my grandmother.

Okay.

So how did all this start?

Okay, we were getting glitches. It was a big problem.

A couple of young programmers came to me with this very smart solution.

But it involves storing the live feed of everyone's phone cameras, but just to

gather all the necessary data.

Privacy protection is our primary policy.

So I needed to make sure that we weren't doing exactly what the press was saying

that we were doing.

No offense.

None taken.

We implemented security.

A lot of it.

The footage would only be analyzed by computers. No one had access to it.

And it worked.

And it still does. We became the number one app and continue helping a lot of

people. There were speculations you had issues with security.

Look, while we were in beta, I would have the programmers try to find holes

our security.

We'd have to shut down the system for a day, turn it around, but it was all

natural.

But people saw reboots and delays and updates that turned into clickbait

about... Breaches in privacy, and a lot of rumors started spreading, and rumors

are like... But everybody gets hacked. Not everybody.

Name one major tech company that hasn't been hacked. And it's like?

Stefan, the passcode on your tablet is 123456.

My personal tablet that I keep on me.

Okay, so what happens with these private videos when Insight eventually does get

hacked? We have significant layers of security and a proven track record of no

one even getting close. I got in on the first try. I will change my password,

okay? Okay, step one.

But that doesn't mean that the professional security apparatus for my

doesn't work.

Can you give me proof?

Stefan, I can't take for granted what you say without proof.

For your eyes only. Just to back up the facts.

Thank you. If any of it gets published, it could ruin Innocent Program at their

careers.

I understand.

Why are you doing this?

I want to trust you.

To do the right thing.

I read through Stefan's documents.

I mean, Esteban.

That'll take me some getting used to.

To me, he's still Stefan.

I fact -checked and corroborated his story.

He was telling the truth.

So I wrote for the night.

Someday I should figure out how to write during the daytime, because these

overnighters will probably kill me.

It was the best article I had ever written.

I sent it to Catherine.

And then I waited.

Can I try that?

Sure. Just, um... I got it.

This article's no good.

This is the truth.

We can't be defending a massive privacy breach by a giant tech firm based on the

word of an anonymous source. There hasn't been a breach.

These documents and my source are legit.

Who's the source?

I can't tell you that.

Dana, I think your personal feelings clouded his judgment writing this one.

You told him?

Yeah, I tell Mr. Tiffin everything when it's news.

Do you think your source could possibly have an interest in charming a respected

young reporter into smoothing over a public relations nightmare for their

company? He wouldn't do that.

Again, who is your source?

I trust him.

Dana, who is he?

Esteban Gonzalez.

Is that good enough?

Now I really don't believe any of this.

What do you mean?

Oh, come on.

Especially when the New York Bureau prints a story citing an internal source

Insight that blames that CEO's negligence as the cause of that data

Okay, at what point did he know your feelings about Insight?

The first time I met him.

Dana, just think about it. This is your reputation on the line here. We need to

verify the documents you have with the third party.

I can't do that, I promise.

Can I trust you?

What?

Are you conning me?

No.

What is this about?

To be honest, this noble story you fed me is a little convenient. It's the

truth. The New York Bureau doesn't think so. What?

I defended you.

And I could lose my job over this. Dana, I have been nothing but honest with

you. Really?

Why does it look like you moved into your room?

I own the lodge.

Of course you do.

Is there anything about your life that isn't a big secret?

This is the last session of the retreat.

I am so proud of you humans and the journey that we're on together.

We're just waiting on Stefan.

And then journey can become end.

Sorry,

I'm late, everyone. Stefan, could you put away the electronic device?

I didn't publish any. We'll begin in Cat Cow.

They changed it. I didn't write that. There's your contributor.

Aren't you back? I didn't give them the documents.

I trusted you to report facts, not penal hypothetical scandals.

Guy, could you lay off the talking until we finish up?

I came here to get away from people like you.

That's it.

Thank you so much for such an inspiring week.

Namaste.

Namaste.

Stefan, I'm sorry. I'll fix it. Please don't. You've done enough.

Look, I know you're mad, but I can clear it up. I knew I shouldn't have tried

with you.

You know what the downside to anonymity is? You'll never really be able to trust

anybody.

So that was it.

My hit piece, Han and Psych, was a hit.

And my yoga adventure at El Pacifico Resort and Spa on Flores Island, Canada,

had come to an end.

And so had any kind of potential relationship with Stefan.

Stefan.

That kind, mysterious, and handsome billionaire I had started to have

for.

So I quietly packed my bags to go.

I'd grown oddly fond of this place.

Even the silly sweatshirts.

Do you know what the primo caviar of heartbreaks is?

I'm talking about the $3 ,000 an ounce caviar that you've heard of but will

probably never try in real life.

That was this heartbreak.

Seeing the eyes of the man who believes you betrayed him as you're being

rewarded for it.

And not being able to do anything about it.

We didn't speak the whole way home.

We didn't even look at each other.

Or say goodbye.

Why did you change it?

News was breaking and you were on retreat, so we made it about NSYC's lack

transparency. That's a matter of opinion.

None of what we said was false, and the public deserves to know the very

information that you won't even tell your own paper. If we start burning

sources, what does that do to our reputation as journalists? Come on, hon.

are clouded. You're compromised.

Just relax. You're a contributor on the biggest story in America.

You're a hero now.

And you're... sticking up for that millionaire con man who played you for a

sucker.

I'm just saying.

Oh.

Hi, John.

Hi. You're at my work. Nicola broke up with me.

Sorry to hear that.

I wanted to apologize to you and bring your stuff back to you.

That was pretty awful to you this past week.

What's this?

Um, these are all the old books that you lent me over the years that I... And

also, you left a box of Canada sweatshirts on the bus.

Thanks. Yeah.

I'm not interested in... My thoughts exactly.

Yeah. Like, I was actually really surprised by you and stuff.

I thought you guys had something.

You think so?

Like something special, yeah.

Catherine says he was playing me from the beginning.

I'm starting to think maybe I should agree with her.

Well, Catherine only sees conspiracy, so... I mean, she could be right.

Not really.

I mean, do you really think that Stefan would calculate his every word and

action all week long just to get you to write a fascinating little article about

him?

He could have been hired a publicist, right?

Possibly.

Oh, a yoga buddy of mine who works at the New York Bureau online said

seemed like super fishy about their article. What if I connect you?

Okay. I'm open to hearing him out.

Okay.

Thanks for my books, John.

I'll see you at yoga.

Yeah, okay.

Good to see you again.

This isn't right.

After a week at the retreat, I had changed without realizing it.

I knew what I had to do.

Breathe, listen, and meditate.

After I focused my mind, I emailed John's contact and found out an

Stefan's lied to the New York Bureau to push Stefan out of the business.

That... Why Stefan went on the retreat in the first place. He'd been crossed.

By his friend, and by me.

Is there anything we can do to patch this leaking ship up?

I know, it's bad.

Stefan? Ian, hold on a second.

What if... Could we release a retrograde update that's just the app before the

last update? Stefan. Hold on.

I know no one wants to go back.

But I didn't think so either. Stefan.

You need to be just for a bit. What is it, Ian? I'm on the phone with my

You're all over the news. I know.

But not in like a new game relief good way. It's like a new game relief bad

I appreciate the information, Ian. I'm aware of it.

Here's your copy.

I didn't tell the police your name, though.

Thanks, Ian.

Harriet. Raymond.

Oh, dear.

So good to see you in the real world.

Are you going to flow?

I'm actually meeting Nicola to ask her some questions about Stefan.

What's the thing about Stefan?

Specifically his work.

Please, tell me.

Oh, his spirit is always encumbered by the new moon.

Hold his palm.

Examine his lifeline.

Look into his eyes.

They'll tell you everything.

Thanks, guy.

Namaste. Namaste.

Namaste.

Dana. Oh.

Oh.

Wow. Yeah.

I'm glad to see you continuing your practice.

It's been so long. It's been three days. Can I tell you something?

I was so impressed with you. The entire retreat.

Really? Most would have quit. Especially after how much you humiliated yourself.

Thank you. Humiliation after humiliation.

So I want to ask you.

You've known Stefan a long time. I was wondering.

Has he ever seemed negligent to you?

Never. Really? In fact, since he became owner, most management issues

disappeared.

That's not surprising.

Others have made wrong assumptions about him.

Surprised for secrecy, I think.

How do you know they were wrong?

They didn't bother to get to know him.

As secret as he may be, Stefan is always true to himself and to others.

I don't think he knows any other way.

Wait, have you two ever... Oh, no.

Do you have any idea how much meat that man eats?

I am so much more interested in someone like John.

I was so sad when we broke up.

Oh, I thought you broke up with him.

Life is mysterious.

I miss him.

You should call him.

I have a sense things could work out for you.

Dana, I'm so glad we're friends.

Would you like to go in and float?

Yes, I would.

Look at what the yoga man has dragged in.

I like it. I want to write another piece about Esteban Gonzalez.

What, about how his stock has plummeted in the last three days? I want to

exonerate him.

What? I think he made a big mistake, but I don't think it's the scandal we're

making it out to be.

Oh, he's got to you good.

Yes, he did.

But we can't condemn people for something that hasn't happened yet. They

significant security protocols set up to protect users' privacy.

Do you have any proof?

What he gave me? We can't take his word on that unless we have experts analyze

it. Catherine, I am asking you to take a leap of faith with me. Not as paranoid

journalist Catherine, but as my friend.

I trust him enough that I'm willing to put my own reputation on the line.

So you want us to retract the biggest story our papers had in months, but

not willing to cite any corroborated evidence?

Yes.

But I do have proof the New York Bureau was misled by an opportunistic source at

Insight.

I begin this article with a disclaimer.

I fell in love with the man whose reputation I ruined.

While Gonzalez and his team at Insight did create a possible privacy

catastrophe, recently discovered accounts changed the entire perspective

previous story.

Wow.

Maybe we've been looking for something that just isn't there.

Yet.

Um, yeah, I've got some notes. We can post it tonight if you can make the late

night deadline.

Hey.

Thank you.

It won't write itself.

Sometimes chasing the truth can be messy in journalism.

It was just recently for our competitors.

Sometimes we get it wrong.

But when we do, it's also our job to make it right.

Dana, your article is just going bananas. We've had more of a response to

than to anything else we've done in ages. Well done. Thank you.

Ian?

Uh -oh.

You weren't supposed to see this part.

Is this from Stefan?

I can't say.

I'll make sure to act surprised.

Thanks. No need to pretend.

Hi. Hi.

Your article.

Is it true?

All of it.

Uh, Stefan, this is Bradley Piffin, owner of the Seattle True Press, and

Catherine Fontes, my editor and best friend.

Hi. My name is Esteban Gonzalez.

I'd like to go on the record and confirm everything Dana's written about

insight, positive or negative.

Duly noted.

We'll run a follow -up.

Dana, I'm sorry for not believing you.

I'm sorry, too.

I have never felt so open with anyone.

You have no idea what that means to me.

How can I make things right?

Shut up and kiss me.
