All language subtitles for Love on the Slopes (2018) (Love.On.The.Slopes.2018.1080P.Webrip.X264.Aac5.1-[Yts.Mx]) (ENGLISH)

Africa again?

Kate, you scared me.

I know you do that a lot.

Occupational hazard.

We work at a travel magazine and
we're stuck in these tiny little cubicles.

I mean, come on.

Can't you picture it?

Me in a safari hat and
one of those cute little vests.

And those amazing Lehigh boots
just hanging with the elephants.

I'm falling in your dreams.

Well, at least I
can dream, can't I?

You really want
to quit your job?

I don't know.

But I am planning my escape
from this copy-editing desk.

I am a writer, remember?

At least you're editing
the world's best articles.

Could be worse.

Could be me.

Apparently this
one is also a landfill.

Plastic is single-handedly
destroying our planet.

Okay, everybody gather around.

So, it's been a great quarter.

And that is thanks in
large part to the incredible

hard work and dedication
of you fine people.

But, as our magazine goes on,
and grows, so does our audience.

Which is why this year,
Around the World Travel

is looking to expand
our travel writing team.

We're hoping to find a fresh
voice, a new perspective.

So, I am accepting story
pitches from anyone on staff.

Now, here's the exciting part.

Whoever writes the
best travel article wins a

first-class ticket to
anywhere in the world.

And the cover story
in our next issue.

As well as an ongoing
position as a staff travel writer.

Deadline is a week from Monday.

There's your chance.

Get in there.

Okay, the last time I
pitched a story to McHugh he

gave me the old, that's
not quite right for us, Alex.

And sent me back to my desk.

That was then.

You heard him.

They're looking
for a new writer.

Second chances, Alex.

Go, go, go.

You really think so?

Yeah.

Okay, I guess.

Mr. McHugh?

Sir?

Do you have a moment?

Welcome, Alex.

I just think it's such a great idea
what you're doing about the contest.

Thank you.

Is that all?

Uh, no.

I... I would love to enter it.

As a writer?

Great.

What do you have in mind?

In mind?

Well, off the top of
my head, I could, uh...

I could write about this romantic New
England B&B that I went to recently.

It is classic and
decadent and, um...

Did I mention romantic?

It's nice to see you
taking initiative, Alex.

And you're a very valuable
asset to our copyediting team.

But travel writers, they
go off the beaten path.

They come outside
of their comfort zone.

You really think that's you?

Yes, sir.

I mean, pretty much...ish.

Travel writers are
courageous, Alex.

They'll try anything.

Each story reveals a
part of their soul, taking

the reader on an
inner and outer journey.

So, not a romantic B&B, then?

Think bigger.

Bigger.

There you two are.

Join us.

You've been summoned.

Mother, you look lovely.

Oh, thank you, dear.

Alex, so nice to see you.

So nice to see you, too.

Mrs. Kane, Mr. Kane, thank
you so much for having me.

Of course.

I always say, call me Biddy.

Right.

Sorry.

Biddy.

As I was saying, the
Raven's House is looking

to expand its charity
program this year.

And between that and the Kane's
Foundation, we've raised nearly two

million dollars for
Paws for Peace.

Oh, wonderful.

Alex, you should
really volunteer with us.

You've been such a
big help in the past.

You know I'd love to, Biddy.

Thank you so much for asking.

But there's actually this
opportunity coming up at work.

Um, my editor at Around the World Travel
Magazine announced this contest today.

They're looking for
a new travel writer.

A contest?

To travel?

As a job.

Yeah.

I mean, I still have to
apply and everything,

and who knows if I
even stand a chance.

But, I mean, traveling
the world as a writer,

inspiring people through
my words, it's a dream job.

Well, apply you should.

Yes, well, this might be a good time
to make your announcement, Barton.

May I have everyone's attention?

I've been wanting to create
more stability in my life.

Move things to the next level.

I'm thrilled to announce Barton
has been promoted to partner.

Thank you, and thank you all.

That's just so...
Amazing, right?

Amazing, yes.

Congratulations.

I knew you'd be thrilled.

You deserve it.

Hey, Kate?

What is this called?

What are we looking at?

Right there.

I don't know.

Exhilaration?

Yes.

That's it.

I don't have that.

Has my life become complacent?

I wouldn't say complacent.

It's more like stable
and predictable.

Are these the shots for
the new world's best article?

Mm-hmm.

I love the photographer.

He captures something.

This feeling.

I can't really explain it.

Who is he?

Is he handsome?

The only thing I know
about Cole Taylor is

that he lives in Ridgeline
Resort in Colorado.

You must have a
Facebook account.

No.

I checked.

He has a website.

Other than that, no online
presence, no photos, nothing.

Sounds like a real recluse.

You know, I bet he
has a wilderness beard.

All enigmas have beards.

So someone's a recluse just because
they don't have a social media profile?

Pretty much.

Oh, it's 3 p.m.

Shall we?

Shall.

Oh, hey, Cole.

What are you doing?

We need to change things up a little
for your winter walk meet and greet.

What do you mean?

No, no, no.

We agreed I'm
the silent partner.

You do the talking
and the selling.

There will be no meet or greet.

Cole, I haven't sold
anything in weeks.

And people are requesting
new pieces, which is you.

With all the commercial
work, I haven't had time.

Fair enough.

But we can't keep working
out the same old material.

What happened to the guy who
needed to capture a moment in time?

Capturing a moment in time is
not just about a beautiful photo, Max.

You gotta be inspired.

You can't just
force inspiration.

Anyway...

How does it happen so fast?

One minute you're reaching for your dreams,
and the next you're 29 and coasting.

Everything is easy and safe.

The most exciting part of your
day is getting lattes at 3 p.m.

I mean, don't get me wrong,
I have a great job, but...

I majored in
journalism in college.

When did I become a
bystander in my own life?

That's just who you are.

You're not a risk
taker, and that's okay.

Hey, I got double
whipped in my latte today.

Yeah, first time ever.

It's true.

You know, ever since I fell down
the stairs when I was four years old,

my mom has had me in a
hypothetical bubble wrap.

I'm a low risk dreamer
without being a chauffeur.

I wonder if Barton
has zero faith in me.

Hey, entering that
contest isn't safe, okay?

It takes real guts.

If I can figure out
what to write about.

I don't know how I'm going to get McHugh
to take me seriously as a travel writer.

Oh hey, look!

That's Cole Taylor's photo.

For an enigma, he
sure is everywhere.

At least his photos are.

Maybe they're trying
to tell me something.

To go skiing?

I doubt it.

No, Kate, that's it.

I know what I'm
going to write about.

McHugh is going to love it.

Alex, wait!

It's not a good idea
to run with coffee.

What can I do for you, Alex?

Well, sir, I thought a lot about what you
said and I am proposing that I travel to

the wilds of the Rocky
Mountains and write an article

on nature and extreme sports
photographer Cole Taylor.

His work is amazing.

Oh, I just died.

They call him the next
Ansel Adams, yet he

hasn't created a new
collection in two years.

He really is quite the mystery.

Perfect subject, right?

Well, I mean, the photos
are wonderful, but if

he's so elusive, how
are you going to find him?

He lives at Ridgeline
Resort in Colorado.

I was thinking I
could go undercover.

You?

In the world of extreme sports?

Alex, and I mean this
with all the kindness

in the world, but
you're a complete klutz.

No, I'm not.

Coffee?

Well, maybe just a little bit, but that
has nothing to do with my ability to write.

Actually, this is a great idea.

Thank you.

You should write it in first person
from the perspective of a non-adventurer.

And in one week, you try every
extreme sport that they have there.

I'm sorry, what?

Well, you wanted a story, right?

Well, this is it.

But what about Cole Taylor, sir?

You're a travel writer, not
an investigative journalist.

What about you?

The deadline is a
week from Monday.

You better get going.

That is a great idea.

Thank you, Mr. McHugh.

You will not regret this.

Extreme sports?

Alex, do you even
know what that means?

No, but I am an
excellent researcher.

Pretty sure that's
not the same thing.

But I believe in you.

Thank you.

Mr. McHugh thinks
it's gonna be great.

Now I have the entire flight to Denver to
become an expert on all things extreme.

Uh, can you...

Can you cover me on
World's Best while I'm away?

Yes.

I'm no longer the world's worst.

Okay.

Oh, and Alex, be a
warrior, not a worrier.

Right.

I'm heading to the airport now.

You're actually doing this?

Yep.

The deadline is next
Monday, so that gives me

seven days to face my
fears and write the story.

I thought we'd go
away this weekend.

You, me, the Berkshires... Barton,
you're not making this any easier.

I needed to do this for
myself, for my career, for us.

It's my big chance.

I finally get to step
outside of my comfort zone.

Okay.

One week, you'll be back?

Then I'm back.

All right.

Knock him dead, babe.

Maybe we don't mention death when
I'm about to go do extreme sports?

Right.

Sorry.

Please, be safe.

Safe I will be.

I'm a warrior, not a worrier.

The mechanic
thinks it's the axle.

And the tow truck
driver's swamped.

But he should be
here in a few hours.

A few hours?

Sorry, miss, but
luckily if you're in a

hurry, the resort is
just a mile up the road.

Don't be complacent, they said.

Go on an adventure, they said.

Hi, Kate.

Yeah, I'm here.

Okay, good.

Just checking.

Yep, but I'm on foot.

I don't understand.

Are you on the highway?

Uh, Kate?

I think there's a
man following me.

Did you say a van?

A mountain man in a jeep.

I gotta go, okay?

He's gonna kidnap me.

He's gonna throw my bag in the bushes
and no one's ever gonna be able to find me.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Need a ride?

I'm good, thanks.

I'm going the same way.

Why not?

Just get into a jeep
with a complete stranger.

You sure?

Because that bag looks heavy.

It's good for the cardio.

Okay.

Suit yourself.

Good luck with the bears.

Bears?

Bears?

Welcome to Ridgeline Resort.

How may I help you?

Hi.

Checking in?

Alex Burns?

Yes, I see we have you in the
idyllic suite with a mountain view.

Sounds idyllic.

You came at the
perfect time, too.

Winter Walk
starts in a few days.

Winter Walk?

Local artists open their shops
with hot drinks and treats.

It's a great way to connect
with the community, raise

money for charity, and
celebrate Ridgeline artists.

Like... Cole Taylor?

Exactly.

Cole sells his work out of
the Ridgeline Art Gallery.

Oh.

I, uh... I thought
that he was a recluse.

Not really.

In fact, with this fresh snow, I'm sure
you'll see Cole up on the mountain.

Here's your key.

You'll want to head out the front
door and head north up the path.

Can I just leave my
luggage with the bellman?

Unfortunately,
we don't have one.

But it's just a short
jaunt up the nature path.

Enjoy your stay.

Okay.

Great.

Thank you.

This is a really nature
path up to my cabin.

I'll go away with it.

Hello?

Alex!

How are the slopes?

Mr. McHugh.

Hi.

Sir.

Yes.

Uh... good.

It's funny that you
should call right now.

I'm actually just about to
head out on my first excursion.

Excellent.

Have fun out there.

Just the word I
was going to use.

Warrior

Package includes ziplining,
heliskiing, and bungee jumping.

The views from 3,000
feet are spectacular.

Ow.

Uh... may I help
you find something?

Uh... no.

No, I um...

I'm just browsing.

Let me know if you guys
have questions, alright?

Our mountain biking trails
are suitable for all levels.

Our next excursion
starts in 30 minutes.

Oh, hi, hi, hi.

Yeah, the mountain biking
that's suitable for all levels?

Where do I sign up for that?

Oh, just fill this out.

Okay.

Do you prefer suspension,
comfort, or a fat bike?

Let's just go with the fat bike.

It has the best
grip in the snow.

Great.

Thank you.

I'm Alex, by the way.

Sarah!

See you on the chairlift.

Chairlift?

Hey!

Is that your jacket?

Don't worry.

You'll warm up
once you get moving.

Well, I'm not
worried... about that.

There's a seatbelt, right?

Your bike will be
on the next chair.

But is there a seatbelt?

On the lift?

Stay up there!

Okay.

Uh, it's too high.

I can't, I can't, I can't.

Miss, please remove yourself.

Okay.

Would you like some help, ma'am?

You?

Why not?

Let's get out of here.

Thank you for, uh, you know,
helping me back there, but

I'm pretty sure I can get
myself back to the hotel, okay?

And let you, uh, cause
another human pileup?

Not a chance.

Okay, so I'm not the best biker.

Whoops.

More like a chairlift mounter if
you haven't gotten on your bike yet.

Right.

Can't do that.

Okay.

It's, uh...

I think my bike is broken.

No, you just need to
shift the gears down.

This thing?

Right.

Okay.

Whoa, whoa!

Just remembered why I
don't ride bikes in Central Park.

New York, huh?

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

It's a long story.

Whatever it is, I want
to think about rewriting it.

Right.

Have a good day.

You too.

I'm sure it can't
get much worse.

Hey, Cole.

Hey!

Cole?

You're here!

I was about to send
out a stage party.

I know, I know.

I'm so sorry.

I guess I wasn't ready for
the chairlift or anything, really.

It's your first time.

Look at the hang of it.

You didn't see me out there.

What if you got
yourself a guide?

Maybe.

Do you know anyone?

Well, most guides I know are
booked up with Winter Walk this week.

I'm helping the organizer, but I
mean, I could show you No, no.

It's okay.

Don't worry about it.

I'll figure something out.

Right now, I just
really need a hot bath.

Thanks, Sarah.

I'll see you later.

Okay.

Take care.

My advice?

Stay clear of the
chairlift for a while.

What happened?

Oh, the equivalent
of a human pileup.

Now I know you're exaggerating.

Maybe.

That's just because
you didn't meet her.

Her?

Yeah.

A walking catastrophe.

Hey.

Are you okay?

What happened?

Oh, nothing.

I'm fine.

I just went fat biking.

Is that like a new spin class?

No.

It's a bike.

On a mountain.

Mountain?

Look at you, babe.

I totally humiliated myself.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I think.

I don't know.

Well, if you change
your mind, don't feel bad.

You've been the sporty type.

I'm losing you, Bart.

There's absolute shame in
coming home with a boyfriend.

Home?

No, no.

I'm gonna be fine.

Everything's gonna be great.

It is just...

delightful.

Here goes nothing.

Beautiful, aren't they?

Just gorgeous.

I've actually been following
Cole Taylor's work for a while.

I was hoping maybe I could
speak with him if he's here.

Hey.

New York?

You two know each other?

Exactly.

I realized I didn't really
give the best first impression.

That's an understatement.

Right.

But I didn't know
it was you then.

And I'm actually a really
big fan of your work.

I'm Alex Burns.

Cole Taylor.

You're the cause of the pile-up.

You told him about that?

Yes.

Safety precaution.

Well, you're right.

I'm pretty much terrible
at every outdoor activity.

But I came to Ridgeline
to face my fears and it's

pretty clear that I can't
really do it on my own.

I know that you're not a guide, but
you seem pretty great at everything

that you do and there
is no one else available.

Wow.

I'm flattered.

No, I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean it like that.

I'm a copy editor.

And I just got my
first real travel writing

assignment, which means
that I can't mess it up.

The problem is that I'm supposed to write
this article about me doing extreme sports.

And I'm basically afraid of everything and
I'm probably the worst person for the job.

But my editor seems to
think that it is really an idea.

So... It could be really funny.

Look, this is my one shot.

If I don't do this right,
it will ruin my career.

Please, Cole.

Could you please help me?

Sorry, Alex.

We are really busy.

Right.

I understand.

We're not that busy.

But I have an honest face.

I can't lie.

And you picked the right guy.

I mean, Cole is
great at everything.

And I'm not just saying
that because I run his gallery.

What about the winter
walk we're trying to organize?

We?

I thought I was organizing.

What about the meet and greet?

You said you weren't doing that.

I could help with winter walk or the
meet and greet or whatever is needed.

You could help me
with extreme sports.

It's a win-win.

Please?

Alright.

But I'm giving you one day to prove to
me that you're not going to kill us both.

And you play by my rules.

Got it?

Got it.

Where are you staying?

Ridgeland Resort?

Meet me at 9 a.m.

at the activity center.

9 a.m.

activity center.

Got it.

Come prepared to work.

Will do.

Thank you so much.

Day two of my extreme adventure.

And I've already
made one friend.

Okay.

Almost one friend.

But I have found a guide into
the world of extreme sports.

Which means
things are looking up.

I'm curious to see what
he has in store for us today.

Hopefully nothing too extreme.

I'm feeling a bit
like the local deer.

Just as skittish.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Wow.

Perfect time.

I just checked.

The chopper's
leaving in 20 minutes.

A helicopter?

Yeah.

There's a giant
ice cliff nearby.

You've done ice
climbing before, right?

Ice climbing?

While we're up there, we're
gonna paraglide off the cliff.

Paragliding?

Uh, that all sounds really fun.

But, um...

I just remembered
that I have a, um...

I have a phone call.

Oh, you should see
the look on your face.

You're joking?

Yes, I'm joking.

This whole thing is all a joke?

It's pretty funny, right?

You have a weird sense of humor.

And you have to lighten up.

Let's go.

I promise.

No chopper.

A climbing gym?

Would you rather
go ice climbing?

I can call the chopper.

No, no.

It's fine.

It's just that, uh... This is
like a jungle gym for kids.

I'm not really a kid.

We're all kids at heart.

Plus, we need to shake
some of the city off of you.

And it'll help you with
your fear of heights.

I'm not afraid of heights.

I mean, maybe a little bit.

So... What kind of
shoes did you bring?

Just my running shoes.

Those are your running shoes?

Yeah.

Do they even offer you support?

No, but they look
really cute with my outfit.

No.

See, the problem is you
don't have the right gear.

No offense, but this
isn't really my style.

It's very orange.

Oh, right.

Excuse me.

We need some help here.

Yeah, we need to fix this.

All the basics, top to bottom.

And shoes, please.

Sure thing.

So...

Who's the guy?

What guy?

What are you talking about?

Come on.

There's gotta be a reason
why you're doing this.

Humiliating yourself.

I mean, besides the work thing.

No offense, but
you're not the guy.

You're the sporty type.

I will have you know that I was
Sporty Spice one year for Halloween.

Okay, actually I was Posh Spice.

My boyfriend, Barton, is very
sweet and very supportive of me.

Your boyfriend's name is Barton?

What is he, a lord?

No.

He's an investment banker at a
very prestigious firm in New York City.

Hmm.

Why isn't he here?

Because he just got
promoted to partner.

So he's very important
and very busy.

Sounds like you're making a
whole lot of excuses for him.

I am not.

Okay.

What about you?

With your sunny disposition, I bet
you have girls falling all over you.

No, I'm single by choice.

With the work I do, I don't
really need anyone else.

Right, you don't need
anyone slowing you down.

Exactly.

How's this?

Do I look like one of your
happy photographs yet?

Nearly.

You ready to face your fears?

Well, at least I look like I am.

Are these the shoes?

These are the shoes.

Are there any other colors?

No.

Okay.

Now you want to be aware of everything
that's underneath you at all times.

Okay?

Keep your weight on your
feet, your arms straight.

Kind of like this.

My arms are
straight, and I go up.

Push up.

You really are a pro at this.

Are you sure you're doing this?

Am I not a guide?

That kind of charm is not
going to get you off the hook.

I'm going to try.

Okay.

Oh!

I'm stuck.

No, you're fine.

Focus on your feet.

Don't look down.

My feet are down.

When am I supposed to look?

Focus on your footholds.

Exactly.

Okay.

Then anticipate
the next two moves.

I anticipate I'm going to fall.

You're not going to fall.

There's about a
50% chance that I will.

You're just psyching
yourself out.

You want to keep
your grip relaxed.

Good.

That's right.

So how long have you
been taking photos?

Since I was young.

I know you're really good at it.

Thanks.

You know, life never
really stops moving.

Every time I go into nature, it
seems like everything is different.

Waves are always rolling.

Leaves are always growing.

Nothing stays the same.

I guess that's my way of holding
on to a moment and capturing it.

That's really beautiful.

I never thought
about nature that way.

Well, stick with me, kid.

You may just learn a few things.

Is that a promise?

We're at the top.

Did you distract me on purpose?

A bit of work.

How do we get down?

Well, you just have to let go.

No, no, I can't let go.

I'm going to fall.

Falling is part of climbing.

Every climber falls.

Does that make sense?

You're okay.

That's still yet
to be determined.

One, two, three, go.

You're going faster.

That was fun.

Yeah, that was really fun.

Thanks, coach.

Now you can tell Lord Barton
that you passed the test.

Tomorrow, we're going
to start your real training.

Yeah?

First, you help me.

Taylor Youth, is that you?

It's a charity I started
a few years ago.

To raise money for underprivileged kids,
trips in gear can be pretty expensive.

This gives them a chance
to come to Ridgeline

and practice winter
sports for free.

That's really nice.

I got the impression, though, that
you didn't want to do the meet and greet.

I don't really.

But 50% of the profits made during Winter
Wall goes to the Taylor Youth Foundation.

Right now, we're able to send about
10 kids each year to winter camps.

I'd like that number
to go higher.

So, if doing a meet and greet can help,
then... Well, then we better get stapling.

And then let's have lunch.

I will have the turkey
burger with no bun,

no cheese, no bacon,
no mushrooms or onions.

Just saying.

Is it organic?

It doesn't matter.

I'll have a cheeseburger,
all dressed.

Please.

Thank you.

So, you're a copy editor?

Yep.

For seven years.

It's a good job.

It pays well and it's stable.

But?

Don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful
to have my job, but it just makes things a

little difficult when my
boss only sees me one way.

So you feel like you
have to prove yourself?

Let's just say that no one expects
me to be up here doing extreme sports.

Okay.

What do you think?

They're probably right.

Well, tomorrow we're going to
be hiking the woods of Ridgeline.

We'll prove that you're
supposed to be here.

Do you really think that?

No.

But I guess we'll find out.

Hello?

This is your
morning wake up call.

What time is it?

Time to face your fears.

I'm pretty sure
I just fell asleep.

And I'm pretty sure the
wild ways with no woman.

I'll meet you downstairs.

Okay, okay, okay.

I'm getting up.

I'm getting up.

Morning, sunshine.

Took you long enough.

Did I mention that it's like five miles
to my middle of the nowhere cabin?

Okay, grumpy.

Let's get you some coffee.

And some breakfast, please.

Funny you should mention it.

That's exactly
where we're going.

Great.

I thought you said we
were going to breakfast.

Patience, my friend.

Patience has really
been my friend.

See, that's your
problem right there.

You live with a city mentality.

Where everything
needs to happen instantly.

You need to stop and
smell the pine trees.

Everything that
matters is right here.

In this moment.

You just have to breathe.

I don't think that's
a city mentality.

I think that's just our world.

Social media has
changed everything.

Oh, social media.

Where everyone can see your
status and it's none of their business.

Try to stay as far away
from that stuff as possible.

You know, I actually think
you could have quite the

lucrative career if you had
more of an online presence.

I mean, not that you're
not successful and not that I

know if you have a social
media page or not or anything.

Were you googling me?

No, I...

Maybe just...

Maybe a little bit.

Right.

I do have a website,
but it's for my work.

Not my personal life.

My photos speak for themselves.

I take pictures
because I have to.

That's how I feel about writing.

When I don't
write, I feel empty.

You know, when I was little
I used to write all these short

stories about all the amazing
places I was going to visit.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

Where to?

Oh, all over.

It doesn't really matter.

I've never been to any of them.

I guess life and fear
just kind of got in the way.

Well, look at you
now, facing those fears.

Pretty soon you'll
be unstoppable.

I don't know about that.

Do you have to walk so fast?

Such a beautiful waterfall!

Aww.

Keep moving.

We're going all the way up.

You don't want to stop and look?

No?

Let's keep going.

It's gonna get icy.

Okay.

There has to be
another way across.

No, this is the only way
to get to where we're going.

Do you know how many people fall
from extreme heights every single year?

I do.

I looked it up.

I'm sure you did.

But you can do it.

I'll be with you
every step of the way.

Come on.

Yeah, that's right.

See, you're doing great.

I bet you say that to everyone.

You're right.

It's kind of my
shtick, actually.

You seem like a guy
who would have a shtick.

I do?

No, not at all.

I'm just talking to distract
myself from the terror I feel

and the sudden desire I have to
knock myself out with my shoe.

You're learning fast.

You okay?

Can we please turn around now?

You're almost there.

You got just a few
more steps to do.

You got this.

Yeah.

Atta girl.

I made it.

Like I had it out.

So now you believe in me?

One of us has to.

Okay, now, don't freak out.

But it's time to go even
higher, way up there.

Come on.

This is beautiful.

Yeah.

It's one of my
favorite lookouts.

This is so nice.

So, if you could go
anywhere, where would it be?

Zimbabwe.

So I could stand at the foot of Victoria
Falls and watch the elephants firsthand.

They're such beautiful animals.

What about you?

I bet you've been everywhere
and done everything, right?

Yeah, I've traveled a fair bit.

Not everywhere, though.

What's your number
one bucket list item then?

Ready?

Yeah.

I would go bungee
jumping off Victoria Falls.

No way.

Really?

Yeah, really.

That is just eerily weird.

And crazy.

I mean, diving head
first off of a cliff?

How would you want to do that?

It's so much prettier
from the ground.

I don't know.

There's something about Africa.

I like to capture it.

I haven't taken any
new photos, any good

photos, I should say,
in the past two years.

What's stopping you?

I think I need to go somewhere.

Get re-inspired, you know?

You should.

I can speak from experience
that so far it hasn't been so bad.

Good.

Then our adventure continues?

Yes.

When you zip through the trees you'll
reach the highest drop of 2,200 feet.

Trust me, you've
never felt so free.

It's awesome.

2,200 feet?

Give or take, but let me reassure
you, you're in good hands.

And the equipment?

Oh, top of the line.

Only the best.

Just asking, because most
accidents happen by routine.

You know, doing the same thing over and
over again, expecting different results.

Isn't that the
definition of insanity?

Well, the two go
hand in hand, right?

I mean, we're about
to jump off a cliff.

You're clipped in, and I
double-checked you twice.

Alright, you're good to go.

Sweet.

Cole, Cole, please.

We don't have to do this.

Can we just walk back
down the way we came?

Alex, if you really want
to write about conquering

your fears, you're gonna
have to take the leap.

Or else your readers
will see right through you.

See, I wouldn't take the shots that I'd
take if I wasn't out there doing it, right?

You're not in any danger.

Trust me, hundreds
of people are doing this.

Right.

I'll go first.

I'll wait for you
on the other side.

Okay?

Okay.

Alright.

This is fun.

Here we go.

Woo!

Woo!

He's right.

You know, your fear isn't real.

Come on, Alex!

I'm pretty sure I'm
not imagining this!

Woo!

Woo!

Woo!

Woo!

Woo!

Woo!

Good?

Yeah!

I did it!

You sure did.

You did it.

That was incredible.

There you go.

How are you feeling?

I feel good.

It was scary, but
it was amazing.

Good.

Wait, don't move.

What are you doing?

I'm capturing the moment.

Stay there.

Oh.

Oh, it's Barton.

Just give me one second.

Hey, Barton.

You'll never believe
what I just did.

Can you hear me?

I just zip-lined.

It was...

So, it turns out, I might
have been imagining my fear.

I'm still fact-checking
this, so stand by.

But, what if we've turned our backs on
ourselves for so long, that when we find

ourselves standing here,
sitting on the precipice of the

unknown, we do what we've
always done because it's familiar?

When do we stop being a
worrier and start being a warrior?

This is Bart King.

Wait for... Barton, it's me.

I keep missing you.

I guess we're
missing each other.

Give me a call back.

Sarah?

Alex, hey.

Hi.

It's no big deal.

I can see that.

Where are you going?

Town Square?

I'll help you.

Come on.

You got that?

Thanks.

Let's just put this right here.

Ah, there you are.

Hey, Cole.

Hey, Sarah.

Wait, you two know each other?

Oh, we go way back.

Pre-chairlift.

How do you know Cole?

Oh, we go way, way back.

Pre-pre-chairlift.

Cole was my coach.

Right.

Huh, nice.

You need my help with anything?

No, no, pretty much everything
is set up for winter walk.

I was actually thinking
we should go skiing.

Skiing?

Uh-huh.

I think I should probably
just stay here and help Sarah.

She's got a lot to do.

Oh, no, I'm good.

You two go.

Wait a minute.

You don't ski either?

Since I was 12 and
grew like eight inches.

I was all long limbs
flailing down the mountain.

Well, that's the
sight I'd like to see.

It wasn't pretty.

They nicknamed me Snowplow.

Ouch.

Right, maybe we
could change that.

It's okay if we don't.

Sometimes you just have
to move forward, you know?

Let the past go.

Or we can face it.

You know, you, me,
and the bunny hill.

Come on, Snowplow.

Let's go.

Bye, Sarah.

Bundle up, Alex.

It's snowing up there.

Have fun!

Are you sure this
is a bunny hill?

It looks a lot like
a black diamond.

Keep your weight centered.

Over your knees.

Equally distributed.

Okay.

Keep your hands forward.

And after that, it's
a bit of a dance.

Swish.

Swish.

Swish.

Okay?

Panic will make
you lose your rhythm.

That's when you wipe out.

Just remember.

Swish.

Swish.

Swish.

Okay.

Don't panic.

Swish.

Okay, breathe!

Calm, blind.

You okay?

You hurt?

I'm okay.

You sure?

No.

Maybe we should
put some ice on you.

Isn't that what caused the
problem in the first place?

I think I know what
will warm us up.

What?

S'mores.

Let's go.

So what do you think so far?

Other than the bad hip.

Other than the bad hip and
the freezing temperature.

And the subpar company.

That too, yeah.

You could be very
demanding sometimes.

Demanding?

But?

There's a but?

I am starting to realize why
my boss chose this story.

He had mentioned something
about an inner and an outer journey.

And I think I'm finally
understanding what he meant.

Yeah, this place can
have that effect on people.

That could just be
the subpar company.

She learns fast.

Okay, you find the graham crackers and
I'll track down the marshmallows, okay?

Wouldn't they be
in the same aisle?

You're probably right.

Hold on one second.

That's my boss.

Just give me a second.

You take it.

I'll be right back.

Mr. McHugh?

Alex, how's it going?

Great, actually.

Cole Taylor was just
teaching me how to ski.

You found Cole Taylor?

So you're writing
the article about him?

What?

No.

I thought that you said that
you wanted me to write about...

If you have access
to Cole, use it.

Incorporate him into your story.

But sir, you said that I was a travel
writer, not an investigative journalist.

That was before you found him.

That's also before I knew him.

I don't think he's
going to go for it.

The more Cole
Taylor, the better.

Trust me on this.

This could be a real
contender for the cover story.

Sir, please.

I really don't think that...

Everything okay?

Yeah, yeah.

Everything's fine.

Great.

Excellent.

And there's a fire pit
with our names on it.

S'mores always
remind me of home.

Oh yeah?

Where's home?

Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Ah, a mountain man
through and through.

Why leave paradise when
it's right in your backyard?

That's something
that Barton would say.

It's gotta be hard being
here without Barton.

Yeah.

It is.

This really isn't his
kind of thing though.

What?

Who doesn't like s'mores?

No, I mean... I just mean that we
don't really do things like this together.

We usually do things
when we're a little more safe.

The change of scenery really
does put things into perspective.

But the silence helps too.

Oh no.

Silence is the
reason I can't sleep.

The answer is easy.

You gotta breathe.

So that's your big advice
for when I can't sleep?

Just try it.

If nothing else,
it'll keep you alive.

You're right.

I feel more zen already.

Look at you.

I hardly recognize you.

How come you're
not afraid of anything?

What do you mean?

You're just good at everything.

You could just jump off
a cliff and fall from the

sky with your eyes wide
open and see the world.

Change your perspective.

I mean, everyone has fears.

It's just that
mine are different.

Different how?

Just different.

I'm not good with crowds.

Or attention on me.

That's why I like
to keep to myself.

And why you don't want
to do the meet and greet.

But your work is so good.

You should be so proud of it.

I am.

I really am.

I just feel weird discussing it.

Okay.

Good night, Alex.

Good night, Cole.

It's day five.

And up until a few days ago, I thought
the guide who has been training me,

Cole Taylor, was a brilliant
photographer who had nothing left to say.

But I'm beginning to wonder if perhaps,
like me, he's let fear get in the way.

He's the one
holding himself back.

The question is, why?

I thought you'd
be out with Alex.

No.

I have a lot to do.

You shot some new stuff?

Great.

Make yourself at home?

Have you told her how you feel?

Max, she has a boyfriend.

Then why isn't he here with her?

These are really good, Sarah.

It's no big deal.

I just thought the
kids might like them.

I can make you one, if you want.

Oh, no.

That's fine.

Unless you want to.

Sure, I'll take one.

So, how's it going with Cole?

Yeah, it's...

good.

I have to admit, you and Cole
training together surprised me.

Surprised me too.

We didn't really start
off on the best foot.

He's a great guy.

We've been friends
for a long time.

There's no one
more loyal than Cole.

Has he always been this private?

Yeah.

Well, that's a
part of his charm.

When he lets you in,
it means something.

So, what should yours say?

Oh, um...

I'm a worrier, not a warrior?

I think you got that backwards.

Or not.

Alright, let's do it.

How's your hip feeling?

It's a little better.

Good.

Because I have an idea.

You are just full of
ideas recently, aren't you?

We're just getting started.

Look at that.

Built-in cushion.

Oh, you're mad?

Well, I'm not mad.

This is my game face.

You're going down, Taylor.

Ready?

Yeah, I'm ready.

You go.

That's so fun.

When I was a kid, my mom used to make
us hot chocolates on cold nights like this.

Oh, it's the best, isn't it?

So cozy.

What about you?

Did you have any
family traditions?

Um, yeah.

Yeah, actually.

Yeah?

My mom used to bring me here for
one week every summer and every winter.

Even back then, Ridgeline was
the center of extreme sports, so...

So thanks to my mom, I
learned to do everything.

Your mom sounds amazing.

She was a real advocate
for those less fortunate.

She passed away
when I was in college.

I'm so sorry.

So with Max here, I
decided to move to Ridgeline.

And go back home.

It just wasn't home anymore.

That must have been really hard.

I promised her that I'd
pick up where she left off.

Then you started the
Taylor Youth Foundation?

I wanted to give
the kids that are less

fortunate the same
opportunities that I had.

I bet your mom
would be really proud.

Thanks.

I know I can be, um... Oh.

You can take it.

No, I'll just...

I'll just call her back.

Go on.

I know I can be
private about things.

Truth is, I went through
a breakup a couple years

ago and I'm just starting
to see in color again.

Cole, I know that you're worried about
putting yourself out there at the meeting

rate, but for what it's worth,
when you speak from your

heart like you just did,
you are incredibly inspiring.

Were you now the coach?

Maybe.

Before I knew who Cole was, I really
didn't think it was that big of a deal.

I thought I'd be helping
his career and mine.

It was a win-win, but now that I know his
personal story, and how upset he'd be of

his private life in public, I
just can't keep it from him.

Well, if you tell him now,
then you risk him saying no.

And then you won't have a
story, and worse, no career.

I know, I...

I just feel like I need to be
honest with him regardless.

Right now I feel like I'm lying.

Wait, do you have
feelings for him?

What?

No, no.

He's just a friend, no.

I mean, I told Barton that I
was writing the story on Cole.

And?

He didn't think
it was a big deal.

I agree with Barton.

Do what makes you
sleep better at night.

But I say do what's
best for the story.

Right.

I think you're both right.

If you want, send it to me.

I'll tell you if you stand a chance
before you dig your own grave.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

But please don't show anyone.

It really is just a first draft.

Please, I'm Fort Knox.

Okay, I gotta go.

Cole's picking me up.

We're going skiing.

What have you
done with my friend?

I don't even recognize
you anymore.

Trust me, in some ways I
don't recognize me either.

But in other ways, I
finally feel like myself.

You're surprisingly calm.

Well, I'm trying out
this new technique.

It's called screaming
on the inside.

I see.

It's working for you.

That, and I figured if we
fall, it would just land on you.

Is that your big survival plan?

Well, one of us
has to survive, right?

You look like you'd
make a better cushion.

Why, thanks.

I appreciate the concern
for my well-being.

You've had a good run.

Seriously, Beau?

Thanks, Coach.

I know you weren't planning on helping me
for this long, but I really appreciate it.

Thanks for later.

You haven't gotten
on your skis yet.

That's true.

It's so beautiful up here.

Hey.

Come on.

It's time to get the old elusive
Cole Taylor in a photograph.

Just so I can prove to my
friends that you actually exist.

Ski hill still intimidates you?

Then, uh, I haven't done my job.

You know that's what
second chances are all about.

Right.

Alright, last one to
the bottom buys dinner.

Let's do this.

Okay.

Oh.

You're doing great.

That's it.

Now, slide your skis
in together as you turn.

Hey, you're skiing!

Look at that!

Olympics!

Here it comes!

Oh.

Alex.

Alex.

Stop, stop, stop, stop!

I can't!

Oh!

You could do that.

Hey.

Don't knock the snowplow
outwards every single time.

Oh!

You okay?

Yeah.

I guess, uh, you're
buying dinner.

Okay, fine.

But not until after we
do your meet and greet.

Um, you sure you don't want
to go bungee jumping instead?

Nice try, Taylor.

If I can face my
fears, so can you.

One more run?

Why not?

I'm getting the hang of it now.

We're almost out
of hot chocolate.

Max, you told me meet and greet
was supposed to be a casual thing.

Well, I guess
you've got a few fans.

I'll start you off.

Don't worry.

Start me off.

Thank you all for coming.

We're thrilled to have renowned
nature photographer Cole

Taylor here with us in the
gallery to talk about his work.

He's, uh, excited to meet you.

So let's give him
a warm welcome.

Remember why
you're doing this, okay?

Speak.

What a great turnout.

I had no idea that so many of
you cared about the work I do.

It means a lot to me.

You know, coming to Ridgeline
as a young boy changed my life.

And I'd like to pay it forward.

So, 50% of all the sales made this week
will go to the Taylor Youth Foundation.

Thank you.

So please enjoy
the hot chocolates.

Come say hi.

And, um, let's
change some lives.

Shall we?

Thank you.

That was amazing.

You did so great.

Uh, did I?

You did.

Well, I tried this new thing.

It's called, uh,
screaming on the inside.

Oh, I think I've heard of it.

After I talk to some
of these guests.

How about that dinner?

Yeah.

Ah, I love this place.

It's time for these boots!

Two-step dance-off!

The two-step?

We're gonna get
in a country bar.

Oh, no, no, no.

I've made a fool of
myself enough today.

Oh, we are just getting started.

Oh.

You're gonna be good.

You're gonna be good.

Oh.

Oh,

you're a regular with Brian.

What can I say?

When you race country,
it's kind of in your bones.

It wasn't so bad, right?

You are full of
surprises, New York.

Well, I took a line dance and two-step
class in college, but in my defense,

it's what Hannah Montana has
hoedown throwdowns all the rage.

All the rage.

All the rage.

Right.

Here's another surprise.

I've had a lot of fun
with you this week.

And, to top it off, neither one of us were
harmed in the making of your adventure.

Well, the night is still young.

You are a determined
woman, aren't you?

I'm sure you could have convinced
any guy and they would have helped you.

And... been just as charmed.

You actually find me charming?

I don't think you
see yourself clearly.

You're captivating.

I also think that the world could
use a little bit more Cole Taylor.

I actually needed to talk
to you about something.

So my story that I'm writing...

And the winner of the
These Boots Dance-Off is...

the couple in the back.

Come on up here
and claim your prize.

Oh my gosh.

No, no, no, no.

I'll be right with you.

Steak dinners.

What do you have to say?

I guess these boots
were made for dancing.

Thank you.

And you?

Uh... She took the words
right out of my mouth.

Women do tend to
do that, don't they?

They do.

You two are a lovely couple.

Enjoy those steak dinners on us.

We're actually... Starving.

Thank you for the ride.

Hey, you never finished
what you wanted to tell me.

Right.

Um...

Do you want to go into the
restaurant and get a hot chocolate?

They make it so good with
these little marshmallows on top.

It's amazing.

Well, you know my
weakness for marshmallows.

I do.

You're gonna love it.

All right.

Yeah?

That's a yes.

I'll take the presidential suite, if
that's the best there is available.

Barton?

What are you doing here?

Surprising my girl.

Hi.

Barton Cain.

Alex's boyfriend.

Good to meet you.

I'm, uh... This is Cole Taylor.

He's my... Cole, right?

The guy you're
writing the article about.

The article on me?

Cole, I can explain.

No, um...

You know what?

It's getting late.

I should probably go.

Good to meet you.

I've heard a lot about you.

All good things I trust.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

You didn't know?

Of course not.

I'll be right back.

Cole, Cole, wait!

Wait!

I had no idea that
Barton was coming here.

I am so sorry.

So it's true?

The article is about me?

I was trying to
tell you tonight.

It's what I wanted
to talk to you about.

Alex, we've been together
every day this past week.

Will you try to tell me now?

I know it sounds bad,
but it's not what you think.

It didn't start out this way.

My boss called me
and he suggested it.

And of course I didn't want
to write the article anymore.

But I had no choice.

Didn't you?

I helped you.

And you took advantage of me.

It isn't like that.

I opened up to you, Alex.

I know.

I'm sorry.

You have to understand that I've
never... I think I understand quite well.

You're not the kind of
person I thought you were.

And that's a shame.

Goodbye, Alex.

Babe?

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

Why are you here, Barton?

I thought this is what you want.

Am I missing something?

It's just been a
really long day.

Thank you for coming.

But I'm really tired.

I just want to go to bed.

I'm sorry.

I didn't realize... It's okay.

I know.

I know.

Maybe it's for the best.

It means I get to
have you all to myself.

Okay.

Come here.

Now that is a hike.

What are you doing way out here?

I just...

I wanted somewhere
peaceful to write.

Well, it's peaceful to write.

But it's like silenceville.

It's creepy.

Come on.

I have a surprise for you.

I wanted to do something
that we've never done before.

Guess.

You're never gonna guess.

Hella skiing?

No, no.

Not even close.

Bungee jumping?

I can't believe you're
not guessing this.

Ziplining?

Is that your idea of fun?

Okay.

You know what?

Forget it.

It's better off as a surprise.

Now, go get ready.

We gotta go.

So I told Simon that in order to cement
the deal, we need to look at all angles.

Forwards and backwards.

He could be so
nearsighted sometimes.

Not seeing what's
right in front of him.

I think that's Cole.

You didn't expect this, did you?

Sarah said you hadn't done it.

I thought it was brilliant.

You talked to Sarah?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's a great idea.

Yeah, it's a great idea.

Barton, what are you doing?

I haven't think of it.

I wanted to do it this
weekend at the Berkshires.

But no matter what I said, I
couldn't get you to join me there.

Alex, will you marry me?

Barton, that is so... Sweet.

I know.

Why do you want to marry me?

Because I thought that's
what you wanted too.

To take the next
step in our lives.

Look.

I don't really care about you.

And I appreciate you coming
up here and spending the time.

But my travels aren't over yet.

I actually think that
they're just beginning.

I don't want to marry
you for the wrong reasons.

And I don't think
that you should either.

You deserve someone
who loves you and shares

all the same joys
and passions as you.

I really don't think
that person is me.

I just think that we're going
down two separate paths.

Maybe you're right.

So, when we get up there, you
guys, I want us to all... Just a second.

Cole, hey.

Hey.

You okay?

Yeah.

Fine.

You saw Barton and Alex.

How could I miss it?

I'm sorry, but... Barton asked me to
book the sleigh for the proposal and...

Um...

Yeah.

It's not like I care.

It's okay if you do.

Right.

Well, she made her choice.

I guess, um, that's that.

Have fun.

Alex.

Hi.

Cole isn't here.

Do you know when he'll be back?

I don't.

Sorry.

Could you give
this to him for me?

Tell him it's important, please.

Sure.

She came by.

I told her to leave.

Thank you.

Why did I ask her
to leave again?

She's happy.

She made her choice.

And she's not who
I thought she was.

Maybe.

But you could have at least
listened to what she had to say.

It doesn't really
matter, does it?

She left you this.

You want me to open it?

Oh my gosh.

Well, it's a cheque.

Alex made a donation
to the foundation.

And a letter.

You know what?

Just read the letter.

Then you can
decide how you feel.

And for the record,
she didn't look happy.

Been here all week?

Yeah.

Great place, isn't it?

How was your time
here, Ridgeland?

It was everything I dreamed.

And feared.

Sounds like an adventure.

It sure was.

It was.

It was.

Hello?

There you are.

I read your article.

And I loved it.

It doesn't matter.

There's no way I
can submit it now.

It's over.

But Alex!

I gotta go, Kate.

I'll see you at the
office tomorrow, okay?

Ugh.

Kate.

I walked to the end of the earth and afar
In an ordinary world Maybe I don't have

much But what we have is more
than enough Ordinary world Kate.

Have you heard from Alex?

Not today, sir.

I haven't seen anything from
her and the deadline is now.

Is she still planning to submit?

I believe she isn't.

Isn't that her article?

Well, yes, it is.

Why didn't she send it to me?

I think if she wanted you to see it,
she would have sent it to you directly.

Right.

What did you think?

I thought it was amazing.

Oh.

Oh.

I'm so sorry.

I respect you too much to publish
this without your permission.

Love, Alex.

We call it a journey
for a reason.

Because there will
be hills and valleys.

You may be asked to scale dangerous
terrain both physically and internally.

Facing parts of yourself you didn't know
existed or consciously chose to ignore.

You will be required to
believe in yourself and trust

that no matter what you
won't let yourself down.

You become your only life raft.

Unless you are lucky enough to have a coach
like Cole Taylor guiding you along the way.

He's more than just a coach.

He's an inspiration.

For when you take a
leap of faith to live the life

of your dreams it is
impossible that you will fall.

From my experience, Cole has
shown me I've always known how to fly.

Hello?

You're coming to work, right?

Yeah, soon.

Why?

Don't hate me.

He is very bossy.

But I guess he is the boss.

Is that how the
word was created?

Because they were bossy?

Kate?

What did you do?

McHugh may or may
not have read your article.

What?

I told you not to show anyone.

I know.

I failed my mission.

I'm sorry.

But I think it's best that
you get down here now.

Okay.

Alex, wow.

You look great.

You have a glow.

Like you're glowing.

May I see you, please?

Sir, I just wanted to say
that I know what you read,

but I can assure you that
that was just a working copy.

It's not nearly near finished.

If that's even a
proper sentence.

And it is definitely not
representative of my best work.

Is that so?

Yes, sir.

That's very impressive then.

Because I thought it was one of the
best articles I've read in a long time.

It was?

Alex, it was poignant,
powerful, self-deprecating,

honest, relatable,
inspiring, and funny.

Great job.

I'm at a loss for words.

Good.

Because I have more.

You won, Alex.

Your story will be on the
cover of next month's magazine.

It will?

And I couldn't be prouder.

No.

But it... But it can't.

I am so sorry, sir, but I don't have
Cole Taylor's permission to tell his story,

and I assured him that I wouldn't
publish anything without his okay.

That won't be necessary.

But it is necessary.

I have a very strong moral
compass, and publishing

anything without his
approval would be wrong.

Sir.

Alex, you've suddenly
become very opinionated.

And normally I would
be offended, but...

I kind of like this
newfound gumption.

I received word from Cole
Taylor about an hour ago.

He read your article.

And he sent me this note to
say... Well, why don't you read it?

This email confirms my
permission for Alex Burns

to use my name and
photographs in her article.

Sincerely, Cole Taylor.

Exhilaration.

What's that?

I have exhilaration.

Yes, I would say you do.

Congratulations, Alex.

You've won a first-class
ticket to anywhere in the world.

And it would be around
the world travel's honor and

privilege for you to join
our full-time writing staff.

If you're interested.

I am interested, yes.

Thank you so much, sir.

So this one represents
the balance between worlds.

Fear.

Welcome to Winter Walk.

You know, I think you're
supposed to get the

subject's permission
before selling these.

That one's my favorite.

Mine too.

In one week, you have
literally changed my life.

You've pushed me outside
of my comfort zone and helped

me to believe in myself in
ways I never thought possible.

I came here to fulfill a dream.

But I never imagined this.

A dream?

Now, I can't imagine any
adventure without you.

I have one last
excursion planned.

If you're interested, I'll be at the
top of the Bridge Line Bridge at 3 p.m.

today.

And here, this is my prize
for winning the contest.

I want you to have it.

So you can keep
capturing the moments.

So this is what you had in mind?

I thought I'd lost
my inspiration.

Nothing made sense.

Now I know why.

I just needed to meet you.

Here's a thought.

What if we turned this first class
ticket into two tickets to Victoria Falls?

I could take pictures
and you could write.

We could capture
Africa's beauty.

And visit the elephants.

Together.

Do I get to wear one of
those cute little safari hats?

Yes, ma'am.

Yes, you do.

So, are you ready to take
the leap into the unknown?

With you?

Always.

Alex Burns.

I've fallen head over
heels in love with you.

I love you too, Cole Taylor.
