Tropical Beach Travel, how may I help you?

Yes, Mrs. Cooper, I just got off the phone with the resort.

and you have officially been upgraded to the Tiki Hut

on the water with ocean bottom floors.

You're so very welcome.

Enjoy your vacations. Make sure to post pictures and tag us.

Okay, bye.

Hey, Hannah! Hannah, do you have a minute?

Walk with me.

Sure, Erin. What is it?

So the rest of the floor doesn't know it yet,

but Tropical Beach Travel is opening a new division

specializing in wintery destinations.

Pretty exciting, huh?

Yeah, I guess, I mean, if you like the cold.

Or Frosty Forays. Like it?

Yeah, I like it.

Good, because I want you to research everything

that we'd have to offer our clients, and to start,

I'm sending you to the Ice Hotel.

(laughing) Oh, no. I said--

I meant I liked the name, not the cold.

And the Ice Hotel sounds, uh, well, freezing.

Hannah, you are our number one agent,

which is why I've chosen you to go.

Oh, no, but this says I leave in two days.

That's right, so you'd better start packing your wool socks

because that's about as far north as you can go from here

before you start bumping into icebergs.

Okay, no, but I already put in my vacation time,

I'm taking a tropical cruise with my family.

You know, fun in the sun

Hannah, look, I didn't want to say anything

'cause it's not official yet.

But you are in line to be manager of the new division.

That means no more phones, no more cubicles,

so whether you like the cold or not,

I would suggest that that you put your cruise on hold

and make this a working holiday.

♪

I can't believe you're abandoning me!

I mean, how much fun is that gonna be?

I'm gonna be fifth wheel to my parents and yours.

I'm sure there's gonna be lots of people you can meet

on the cruise.

Maybe you'll meet someone special.

Mm-mm, no, it's way too soon for that.

Shawn just broke my heart a month ago.

- It's still frozen. - I know.

Look at the bright side.

At least your heart will be in the sun thawing

while I'm by myself in the cold turning into an icicle.

Well, maybe you'll meet a smoldering snowman.

My love life has been non-existent

longer than my dream of running my own hotel.

The only thing keeping me company

is gonna be a hot water bottle.

- That's it! - What?

I'm coming with you! I mean,

that way you won't be a frozen, lonely icicle,

and I won't be a fifth wheel.

- Are you sure? - Yes, totally!

I mean, I am a fitness instructor,

I can't afford to be drowning my sorrows

in the all-you-can-eat cruise buffet.

Okay! Well, bundle up. We're going to the Ice Hotel!

(laughing)

♪

Okay, you weren't kidding when you said

it was going to be cold.

Well, I guess that means the hotel's not gonna melt on us.

I guess.

♪

Whoa.

"Whoa" is right.

Hey, check it out. Real icicles on the tree.

Amazing. Oh. Uh...

(phone ringing)

Okay. I'll go get us checked in.

Oh no, no, no, I got it. You just explore.

Hi, Hannah Fischer and Phoebe Price checking in.

Yes, welcome to the ice hotel.

And Robert Green checking in, but please go ahead.

I'll be right with you.

A pleasure, Mr. Green. My name is Brigitte,

I'm the hotel manager.

Hi, Brigitte, looking forward to my coolest vacation.

I see you're booked in our standard room.

May I offer you a complimentary upgrade

to one of our larger themed suites?

Well, by all means. And please, call me Robert.

Of course. I'll confirm it's ready and get you a valet.

- Thank you. - Oh, Mr. Green. Hi.

- Yes? - Hannah Fisher.

I'm with Tropical Beach Travel.

I'm sorry if I'm mistaking you,

but I feel like I've booked you on a few vacations,

you know, Costa Rica, Tahiti...

Shh-shh. But of course, Miss Fischer!

It's a pleasure to meet you finally in person.

And considering your line of work,

I'm very surprised to see you here.

Well, uh, between you and me, we're opening a new division

specializing in winter destinations, you know,

- Frosty Forays. - (both laughing)

So you are here on reconnaissance.

Exactly, but I don't need to tell you what this place

- is all about. - Ah, that you won't, no.

Mr. Green, your room is ready, our valet here will escort you.

Thank you. And Miss Fischer,

please enjoy your icy adventure.

You too.

I am sorry about that.

Ms. Fischer, you're here visiting us

from Tropical Beach Travel. Welcome.

I have you and your guest, Ms. Price, all checked in.

Now just so you know, the shuttle vans will take you

to the Ice Hotel Village Restaurant for all meals,

and if you give me one moment,

I'll have someone escort you to your rooms.

Oh, no, that's okay. We can just walk around.

Well, if you're sure, here are maps of the hotel.

I'll have your luggage sent there.

- Thank you. - Let us know

- if you need anything. - Thanks.

- Hey. - Phoebe: Hey.

Okay, so... looks like your room is that way,

and my room is that way.

- Sweet. I'll see you later. - Okay.

♪

Okay, I think I'm...

Here?

Here-- Oh, no.

(chisel scratching)

Excuse me, hi.

Uh, sorry, I know you're busy,

but do you think you could show me to room one? I'm kinda lost.

Uh, yeah. Yeah, of course.

Um, it's right this way.

It's just around this corner so you weren't actually that far.

And here you are.

Wow, this place is incredible.

Are all of the rooms like this?

In a way, but each one has its own unique design.

The bed is made of ice.

Don't worry. Once you crawl into your sub-zero sleeping bag,

you won't be cold. In fact,

I guarantee you'll have one of the best sleeps you've ever had.

Good selling point.

Wow. Fireplace is so cozy.

If you do require any additional warmth,

I highly recommend our outdoor Nordic spa.

Outside? Like in the snow?

Yeah, try it. I think you might like it.

Now is there anything else you require?

No, I'm good, thanks.

It's my pleasure, Miss, uh...?

- Oh, Hannah. - Ben.

At your service.

I hope you enjoy your stay.

- I think I will. - Okay, bye.

♪

Now this I could get used to.

Oh, me too.

Yeah, this whole place is pretty cool.

(cell phone ringing)

It's Shawn. It's Shawn... it's Shawn.

- Don't answer. - No, no!

What if he wants to talk about us?

You tried that, and remember, he broke your heart.

- Yeah, but I-- - Just give this to me.

But I love him! No! No!

- (gasping) - Oh my God!

No, no! Oh my goodness, I need rice!

- What is rice gonna do? - To soak up the moisture!

Where are you gonna get rice?

I don't know! Oh my gosh!

- I'm sorry! - Oh my gosh, I need rice!

- Did you bring sushi with you? - Hello, excuse me!

Excuse me!

Hannah: Sorry!

Uh, well, here we have our Nordic spa.

This is available to guests 24 hours,

and if you've never been from a hot tub to a cold plunge,

let me tell you, it is very invigorating.

We keep these tubs

at a toasty 105 degrees.

You will not be disappointed.

I look forward to trying them.

I hope you get to.

Especially in this cold climate, you know,

you're going to want something like that.

In the evening time, these are usually filled with guests.

♪

(laughs nervously)

Here you go.

Thank you.

You're awfully helpful.

Just doing my job.

- And how was it? - Uh, well,

I have to say there's something definitely special

about breathing in the crisp air while soaking in a hot tub.

I'd have to agree.

You should see it when it's a star-filled sky.

Trust me, there's lots more to experience.

Have a good night.

Oh my gosh.

♪

Icy beauty.

Outdoor hot tubs.

Cute staff.

(Video call ringing)

Hey, mom! How's the cruise?

Great! Everything I'd hoped it to be! What about you?

Actually, the Ice Hotel is quite the experience,

and the staff is just top notch.

Well, I'm glad, because even if you are with Phoebe,

I was a little nervous.

I think you guys should come here one year.

Mom: I gotta get back to the ship.

Talk to you in a couple of days. Stay warm, I love you!

Love you, bye!

♪

Excuse me, hi.

Oh, good morning, is everything all right, Ms. Fischer?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, everything is great.

I actually wanted to tell you

that you have excellent staff here,

um, especially this valet, Ben, I think his name was?

Ben? Uh, we don't have a valet by that name.

Oh, there he is.

Oh, you mean Ben Wade. He's not a valet.

He's actually the co-owner and designer of the hotel.

Enjoy your stay.

Oh my gosh, he's coming. I'm so embarrassed.

Morning, Hannah. How'd you sleep?

Like a rock, just like you said, Mr. Wade.

I see my identity has been compromised.

I'm honored to have been enlightened

by the genius designer of all of this.

Oh, trust me, it takes a lot of love and care

from a very dedicated staff to make all this happen.

And we have Brigitte here to make sure things run smoothly.

Um, have you seen everything there is to see?

Not yet, but I'm going to explore later.

Well, I'd love to show you around if that's okay.

My friend Phoebe and I would love that.

We traveled here together.

How about I meet you at the ice slide, say, around 10?

Perfect. See you then.

You like doing that, don't you?

Pretending to be a valet?

I just like to see the guests' faces

when they first enter their rooms.

Well, I hope Ms. Fischer was impressed,

seeing as she's the travel agent

I told you would be coming to stay.

Which makes this a busy week,

because we have another important guest staying with us,

a Mr. Green, who is actually Louis Chagnon.

- The hotel reviewer? - That's the one.

I read one of his reviews in Global Voyageur

- and recognized him. - Great!

Well, uh, it figures the first time I'm doing this

without my dad here, the man whose review could make or break

our hotel would be here. Okay.

Don't worry, I've taken extra steps to ensure

Louis Chagnon's stay is the best it can be.

Starting with upgrading his room.

Thank you, Brigitte.

That's why hiring you last year

was the best decision I ever made.

Thank you, Ben.

Oh, and your father called and left a message,

saying the deal in Finland looks to close

and to start thinking of a team.

Oh, brilliant! Okay, great.

I'll give him a call right now and work out some details.

Thank you for holding down the fort, Brigitte. Okay.

♪

Okay, sounds good.

Oh, I gotta go. Talk to you later, bye.

- Hi! - Hi.

- I see your phone survived. - The rice trick worked.

Oh, so I spoke to our parents this morning,

and of course they're having a blast,

but I said we were having just as much fun.

Speaking of which, I met the hotel designer, Ben.

Very handsome, by the way.

Um, and he wants to take us on a tour of the Ice Hotel.

So I figure we eat breakfast, and then we'll meet him

back at the ice slide, like, around 10?

Okay, actually, I can't.

I have another call at 10.

With Shawn.

Is that who you were just on the phone with?

- It was. - Phoebe--

I know. Look, he's having major regrets.

And hey, we all make mistakes, right?

- I worry... - I know, look.

I know he could break my heart again,

but I want to take the risk, okay?

I mean, I still love him.

Besides, people break up and end up together all the time.

Look at my parents. They broke up in college,

and now they're thirty years strong.

So I want to give him another chance.

I mean, I guess it can't hurt.

Why don't I meet up with you later, and we can go, like--

ooh, cross country skiing or something.

And then you can tell me all about your tour

with the dreamy designer.

Yeah.

- He's pretty cute. - See?

So maybe this trip was fate

and not just about your work promotion.

- Okay. Bye. - Bye.

- Have a good call. - I will.

♪

This looks like fun!

Yeah, as you can imagine, it's a very popular attraction,

so it's the one thing we do every year.

So you're saying other than the slide,

this hotel is different every year?

The design and the artwork changes each winter season.

When your friend gets here, I'll give you guys,

- like, the royal tour. - Phoebe's not coming anymore.

She has a phone date with her ex-boyfriend.

- Oh, second chances. - Yeah.

A bit risky, if you ask me.

Well, we've all gotta take some risks sometimes, don't we?

On that note, I know you really wanna try this thing, so, uh...

Well, it is for kids, right?

Yeah, big and small. Let's go. Come on.

This one, I worked really hard at.

And here, one of my favorites.

Ah, yes...

Thank you so much for the tour.

Oh, you're most welcome.

So did you enjoy your night cap last night?

Oh, was that you that sent that to my room?

We have a pot delivered to our guests here every evening.

Oh, here I was thinking I was special.

(laughing)

But thank you, it was delicious.

Like nothing I'd ever had before.

Well, it's made from cloud berries,

which are native to the region.

- Really? - Yeah.

Never thought much could grow up here.

Actually, you'd be surprised what could thrive around here.

Well, clearly your creativity can.

♪

Incredible. You design all this yourself?

Well, usually I work with my father,

and then we have a team of artists come in

and execute the vision.

But my father is busy working on our next venture in Finland

so this is my first year taking on the hotel by myself.

I have to say, you've done a darn good job.

And when people call me to book their winter escapes,

I'm definitely gonna put this place at the top of my list.

Oh yeah, Brigitte mentioned that you're a travel agent.

Uh, well, I work at a travel agency, I just, um...

I actually went to school for hospitality and hotel management

which is what I really want to be doing, but, uh,

the-- the stars just didn't align, so...

Well, it appears we have two notable guests

to impress this week, then.

Is there a celebrity staying here right now?

For the business we're in, yeah.

(gasping) I get it.

It's a hotel reviewer, isn't it?

Yes, but if I tell you, promise to keep it a secret?

Oh yeah, I promise! Lock it in the vault.

- So it's Louis Chagnon. - Chagnon is here?!

-Yes. - But how do you know he's here?

I thought he usually books under an alias.

Shh-shh! Here he comes. Here he comes. Just act cool.

(clearing throat)

- Mr. Wade. - Mr. Green.

Ms. Fischer.

So you two know one another?

Oh yeah, I've booked Mr. Green

on a bunch of different vacations.

He is quite the world traveler.

- Please. - I see.

Well, Mr. Green, we would love for you to join us

this evening in the dining room.

We are featuring an authentic Nordic menu.

I wouldn't miss that for the world.

- Great. - Enjoy your tour.

See you later.

That's Chagnon?!

The feared hotel reviewer that can make or break your business?

Yeah, but we can't let on that we know, right? Deal?

- Deal. - Okay.

- (phone vibrating) - Oh, hang on.

I've got hotel duties to attend to. I'm sorry, I should go.

That's okay, thanks for the tour, it was great.

Like I said, it was a real pleasure of mine,

and please, don't forget about the Nordic dinner tonight.

- I wouldn't miss it. - See you then.

Phoebe: Yes, downhill! (laughing)

My mother is gonna be very proud.

This is good. This is good.

Well, okay, my one ski is stuck in a rut and I can't get it--

(laughing)

- You okay? - There we go.

I can't believe he let you in on the secret about the reviewer!

Yeah, we made a deal to keep it a secret,

but now that I told you, now you kinda have to keep it a secret.

- Oh, of course. - Okay, great.

Mum's the word.

Oh, that looks fantastic. Just be careful.

(laughing)

This is our dessert for dinner tonight, just over here.

Just be careful. Connie, you start running--

Phoebe: It's so cute that you guys already share a secret.

Hannah: Thank you, that's what I thought.

(Brigitte screaming)

Oh no! No, no! No, no, no, no, no.

I am so sorry.

Oh, it's-- it's okay. I'll take care of this.

Let me help, I mean, I can carry it in or help salvage it.

Maybe I can... I can make cupcakes.

It's okay. Don't worry about it.

Are you sure?

Brigitte: Oh, I'll just take this inside.

(sighing)

I hope that cake wasn't for anything special.

Hey, accidents happen, okay? It was just an accident.

Don't beat yourself up.

I bet Ben isn't too happy with me now.

Let's go get a hot chocolate.

Ben: No chance of a last minute delivery?

Brigitte: There was nothing we could do to salvage it.

So we'll just have to alter the menu.

Ben: Chagnon was expecting an authentic Nordic menu.

This Kransekake was a huge part of that.

Well, I could have the chef whip up a pudding,

but that's all we could manage on such short notice.

- Hi. - Pudding?

Uh, I'm sorry I couldn't help but overhear.

What happened to the cake was my fault,

so I would love to do anything I could to help.

I mean, I can't make another Kransekake 'cause the dough

needs to chill overnight, but I can make any other kind

- of Nordic dessert. - Thank you, Ms. Fischer.

But I'm sure we can handle the situation.

Can we? I mean, other than pudding,

we don't have anything else to offer,

and pudding isn't exactly Nordic.

I can make an Aebleskiver.

- Sorry, what did you say? - It's a Nordic dessert.

My grandmother and I made it growing up, I mean,

I can make it in my sleep. It's the least I could do.

But you're our guest, we can't have you cooking for us.

Oh, trust me, this, like, what you guys do,

is exactly what I want to be doing.

So it would really just enhance this whole experience for me.

I mean, plus I know how important

this dinner is for you.

Hannah, I think that's a great idea.

Uh, Aebleskiver it is, then.

- Great. - Okay.

Cool. Okay. I'm gonna get this to go.

- Okay. - Are you sure about this?

She's here on behalf of a travel agency.

Yes, I know that, but I'd rather not risk

a negative review from Chagnon,

and right now we don't have a better option, so....

Okay, ready.

Great, I'll show you the kitchen.

- Cool. - We got this.

Thank you, Brigitte.

- Right this way. - Cool.

- Go ahead. - Oh.

Ah, what did you say it was called?

Aebleskiver.

Okay, so we usually source out most of our desserts,

since as you can see, we don't have a very large kitchen,

but I think we should have everything we need.

I did know you were helping me.

Of course I am! I can't have you telling your clients

that at the Ice Hotel,

they make the guests cook their own meals.

So what do we need?

Okay, I need the cake pop pan, eggs, butter, and milk.

Got it, okay.

So how did your family start designing ice hotels?

Well, um, when I was a kid,

I asked my dad for an igloo,

and he recruited our family friend, Joe Shawinigan,

who is also a resident artist here, actually.

He's the one that showed my dad how to pack the snow

so tight that it would actually trap our body heat.

My dad and I spent the night in the igloo,

and the idea for the Ice Hotel was born.

That's a nice story.

A lot of dreams are born from great stories.

What inspired you to enter into the wild world

of hospitality and hotel management?

- (Hannah laughing) - It's a family tradition.

Every year, my family goes on a tropical vacation.

- Really? - Yeah, I loved it.

Collecting seashells, hearing the waves on the shore.

And ever since then, I wanted to manage my own hotel.

Somewhere warm. You know, nothing fancy,

just a couple huts on the ocean.

- That's a good story. - Mm, yeah.

Wish it had a happy ending, though, but...

What happened?

Um, I was managing a hotel for a little bit,

but as it turns out, it kind of flooded on my watch.

So that's when I joined the agency,

and I've been there ever since.

Here I am, fixing another mistake.

You know, the first Ice Hotel that my dad and I tried to build

started melting before we were even finished.

- Really? - Yeah.

It was a total disaster.

But we just kept the dream alive

and kept trying until we did it.

Kind of like these eggs. I'm really trying,

but I think there might be some shell in there.

Okay, well, we can't have Louis Chagnon

crunching on some egg shell,

let's that out of there. Okay.

Okay. Oh.

♪

I was so nervous about the whole cake thing,

but actually I ended up having a really good time.

Like, I mean, being in the hotel kitchen,

helping out, it's really my thing.

With the dreamy designer, or without?

(laughing)

It was nice having Ben by my side, assisting me.

Phoebe: Oh, well, it looks like he missed you.

Ladies, how is everything going?

- So far, pretty darn great. - Well, good.

Ben, this is my best friend in the entire world, Phoebe.

Phoebe, it's a pleasure to meet you.

And you.

So, um, when is Mr. Green getting his dessert?

well, he just finished his second course,

So he should be getting it any minute now.

I hope he likes it.

We're about to find out.

Oh my gosh...

(gasping) Wow!

(patrons clapping)

(applauding)

And for the grand finale, Mr. Green.

♪

La piece de resistance.

Or, as us Americans would say,

the icing on the cake.

I must commend you on a truly remarkable and authentic meal.

And that dessert? (chuckling)

So glad you liked it.

You should meet the culinary genius behind it.

This is Hannah, who made your Aebleskiver.

Well, I had some help in the kitchen.

Well, it is evident, my dear,

that your talents and your skills extend far beyond

just booking vacations.

It's my grandmother's recipe.

Oh, in that case, please give my regards to...

your grandmother.

Goodnight.

Goodnight, sir. Thank you.

- So? - He liked it!

Louis Chagnon liked it!

Mr. Green liked it.

So, should we celebrate?

I can make us all the Ice Hotel specialty cocktail.

I would not be opposed to that.

Hey, you know, you guys go ahead and celebrate.

I have a very important phone call to make.

But you guys have fun.

- Okay. - See you.

- Say hi to Shawn for me. - Phoebe: I will!

So I'm curious, what goes into these specialty cocktails?

Do you have a pair of gloves?

- Yes. - You're gonna need 'em.

Okay.

Oh, this is so cool!

Imagine if this didn't melt, how it cool it would be,

on, like, a tropical cruise.

Actually, I'm not done with yours yet.

One second.

Mm, there.

What?!

That is incredible!

Where did you learn how to do that?

Well, I kinda just taught myself

while sitting in my igloo, actually.

Um, I thought the place needed a little sprucing up,

so I just started etching little designs into the ice,

and just moved on to bigger and bigger things,

and now here we are.

Okay, now for our toast.

The Ice Hotel's homemade cider.

To your Aebleskiver. A great success.

And to you, for saving the day.

Well, I only saved it

because I kind of messed it up to begin with.

I think things happen for a reason.

Yeah, I'll go with that. Cheers.

Cheers.

Mmm.

I think this is better than any tropical drink I've ever had.

And actually, it kinda makes me happy that I'm here

and not on the cruise.

For the record, I'm glad you made it.

(phone ringing)

Hey, Erin! Everything is amazing.

I actually think I can start to get used to

all the ice and snow.

That's great news, Hannah!

Because in a few days, we'll vote to see

if you'll be our manager of Frosty Forays,

which would mean a nice big office you can keep

as hot or as cold as you like. Great, huh?

Yeah, great! Um, but I don't mind being so hands on.

Erin: Trust me, you will have enough on your hands

overseeing all of our agents.

Now get out there, and experience everything you can

so you have lots of recommendations to pass on.

- You bet. - Great. Thanks, Hannah.

Okay, bye.

Morning, Mr. Green.

Great day to sign up for winter activities.

That it is. And besides,

I need to work off that fabulous meal I had last night.

How about snowshoeing? That's different, right?

And kind of a perfect day for it,

with all the fresh snow we just got.

And I'm sure it's a workout.

You know, I've never tried snowshoeing.

That's a great idea. Thank you.

Morning, guys.

What a beautiful day full of fresh snow.

It is, but it's kept some of our staff from getting here

so we're just trying to work out which activities we have to

- cancel for the day. - Like what?

Cross country skiing, snowshoeing.

I kinda just convinced Chagnon to do the snowshoeing.

Uh, sorry, you know who Louis Chagnon is?

I kinda let the cat out of the bag.

But only because I guessed. Kind of.

Oh, well. Now it seems we're in another Chagnon pickle.

Guess it won't bode well for our review

if we have to cancel an activity at the last minute.

I know. Um, Phoebe can do it.

I mean, she's a fitness instructor,

so she knows everything sport-like.

That's kind of you to offer her services, Ms. Fischer,

but we need two people to take a group out.

One to lead, and one to take up the rear

and make sure no one falls behind.

Well, I can do it.

Honestly, you've already done enough.

No, I would love to, and I'm sure Phoebe would be on board.

But you don't know the trails,

and I doubt getting Louis Chagnon lost would help us.

Well, I can clear my schedule and accompany them.

Okay, well, I'll tell Phoebe she's instructing today.

- Great. - Okay.

Okay.

- I have to-- - I know what you're gonna say.

Look, she's so much more than just a travel agent.

She has dreams of owning her own hotel.

Really?

And I think she has some really great problem solving skills.

So don't worry. We'll handle it.

Mm-hm.

Knock-knock.

Oh my goodness, Hannah!

I was just about to come and find you. Guess what?

What? What's up?

Shawn is coming here. To the hotel, to see me!

Oh, that is great! I mean--

wait, what does that mean?

It means he's finally proving his commitment to me.

Phoebe, I'm so happy for you.

- Really. - Thank you.

And don't worry, I won't make you feel like a third wheel.

Hey, especially if Ben hangs out with us.

Then we could, like, you know, double date.

I really don't think Ben has time to hang out.

Besides, I kind of, um, messed something up again,

but that's okay 'cause we're gonna fix it.

We? What do you mean, "we?"

Snowshoeing?

Oh, seriously? That's fun.

I mean, I've always wanted to try it.

- You've never tried it? - No,

but I hear it's challenging which is very good,

because I haven't had a proper workout since we arrived.

Oh no...

Why, what?

I kinda signed you up to, uh, lead a snowshoeing tour.

Why?!

Because Ben was going to have to cancel because his employees

got held up by a snow storm, and then, I, of course,

told Chagnon that he should try it, and if he can't,

then he might give the hotel a bad review, but that's okay,

because we can learn how--

Hannah, I know you like this guy,

but it takes me awhile to plan a cardio circuit

and I don't even know how to snowshoe.

I feel like if I can get this hotel a good review,

then I'm kinda like,

redeeming myself for flooding the other one.

- Is that crazy? - It's not crazy.

And besides, how hard can it be.

I mean, we already know how to cross country ski, right?

- Thanks, you're the best. - I know.

(giggling)

Okay, let's see how this thing is done.

Is snowshoeing one word or two?

Oh boy.

♪

Phoebe: All right! Is everyone excited to hit the trails?

(cheering)

Great, guys! Now your strides should be a little bit

wider than normal, let's say, if you were hiking.

She really does know what she's doing.

Mm-hm.

And make sure to keep your feet firmly in the snow.

You're gonna need the traction from your snowshoe cleats

and your poles for traction, okay, guys?

Pick up the pace! Keep it going!

Gorgeous day out, guys!

Let's go! Pick it up!

♪

Come on, guys! Gotta get that work out.

Feel the burn.

Louis: I prefer skiing myself.

But this is good.

Ben: I am not complaining.

(panting)

Phoebe: Come on! Get those poles working for ya!

Sorry. She's kinda used to running a cardio class.

At this pace it will tire everyone out

before we're halfway through.

I know. I know how we can slow down the pace.

Okay, everybody stop.

If we all look to the right, we can see, um,

beautiful view of, um...

Boreal forests. Yes, filled primarily with pine,

spruce, and larch.

This is no doubt, uh, an integral part of the landscape.

Ben: Yes, indeed it is.

Because of our long, cold, climate,

it means we have a very short growing period,

so the forests provide a haven of survival

for many different species of vegetation and wildlife.

Now as we continue, we're gonna be stopping from here and there

to talk about, uh,

facts about the region.

- Won't we? - Yes, yes we will.

- You are good! - Hannah: Thank you.

Ben: Now these forests will actually yield

quite an impressive variety of berries year round.

Hannah: Like the cloud berries you use in the tea at the hotel?

Ben: That's right.

Yes, in the springtime,

wild blueberries, cloud berries, and goose berries

will cover these grounds in a cornucopia of color.

- What is it? - The trail,

it hasn't been cleared through here.

What does that mean?

It means I can't exactly be sure where we're going.

(whispering) Are you saying we're lost?

This is very intriguing, but I must say,

the thought of a hot tea right now is most appealing.

- Yes. - Phoebe: Yeah, guys.

How long is this tour? Or like, snowshoe, whatever.

(Whispering) I'd say we'd have looped around already,

but I don't remember the turnabout.

I think we should get Chagnon off his feet,

'cause I can't tell if he's red from the cold or the exertion.

Okay, um, maybe I could try to find us on the GPS.

Oh, don't bother, there's no signal. I already tried.

Hannah: It's okay,

we're just going to follow our tracks back to the hotel.

All right, everybody! Time to go back, whoo!

Group: Yay...

Louis: Okay.

- Uh-oh. - Yeah.

Looks like we're not the only ones taking advantage

of the fresh snow.

That house over there.

Maybe someone's home, we could ask for directions.

Yeah, good idea. I'll go check it out.

Okay.

Right this way, folks.

(knocking)

Ah--

My goodness, what do we have here?

Hi, sorry for the intrusion, we're from the Ice Hotel and--

(whispering) We're a bit lost.

Ah, the famed ice hotel, come on in.

- Come in. - All of us?

Of course, you've come a long way.

All of you need to warm up before we set you

- in the right direction. - Come on.

Come along, folks.

Some hot gooseberry tea to get the chill out of your bones.

Thank you.

I must say,

this is the most enjoyable part of the tour.

We kinda told the guests that this was part

of the whole snowshoeing tour.

Yeah, so they don't know we're lost.

Don't worry, you haven't strayed too far off the beaten path.

Yeah, we'll point you in the right way

after you've all had a rest.

Thank you so much for your hospitality, both of you.

Well, the Ice Hotel was more than hospitable to us

when we stayed there on our 20th wedding anniversary.

Oh, it was magical. I even remember the room we stayed in.

It had a snow owl theme.

Oh, my father designed that room.

Your father, really?!

Yeah, so this is my first year designing the hotel by myself

but my father is the real creative force behind it

and has been for the last 22 years.

So you're an artist just like we are.

I guess so, yeah.

What kind of art do the both of you do?

Anne Marie: Well, if you take a closer look at your mug,

- you'll see. - Ben: Oh, glassware?

We hand-blow them, so each is different and unique.

If you're interested, I can show you our workshop.

Everyone seems pretty content right now,

so I don't see why not, yeah.

Come on, I'll show you.

Watch your step.

And in here, well, this is where the magic happens.

Wow.

Take a look.

Cool.

Hannah: Wow, each piece is so fluid and unique.

That's the beauty of working with handcrafted glass.

You have to work with it while it's still in liquid form,

so you go with the flow as you mold it

into whatever shape you want.

You know what? I'm gonna show you. Come on.

♪

Now just be very careful, that oven is 2,000 degrees.

Okay.

So, what you do... dip it in here.

Whoa!

Man: That is liquid glass.

Now, we just take this out,

and now, I'm going to take it over here and roll it out,

and I'm going to roll that liquid glass out there

just like I'm rolling out dough, as if I was baking.

Why don't you give it a try?

- Me? Ah! - Yeah.

- Go for it, yeah! - Okay.

- Okay. - Man: That's it.

You want to keep it centered on the tip there.

Yeah, down a little bit lower, that's it.

I'm going to add some sparkle.

- Ben: Ooh, yeah. - Man: There you go.

- Ben: There you go! - (laughing)

- Here you try. - You sure?

Yeah.

I think you're doing a great job.

- I am. - Okay.

Man: Yeah. That's perfect.

And I'm going to grab that from you.

Okay.

'Cause I'm going to put it back in the oven.

- Oh yeah. - Cool.

Yeah, that looks great.

Okay, now the beauty of working with liquid glass

is you can form it into anything you can think of.

(water sizzling)

See how it's making a nice shape there?

And that is a little introduction into glassmaking.

(sighing) Well, what do you think?

Do you think the rest of your group would be interested

in seeing this process?

Really? You would show them?

Oh, my wife will tell you I love an audience

and out here we don't get a lot of visitors, so...

- Are you sure? - Yeah.

Because I think you'd have a very captivated audience, yeah.

The more the merrier. Bring 'em in.

- Okay. - Oh, okay.

Alright, I'll get ready.

I mean, it's a real talent,

Well, I don't have my own hotel, but I am happy to make sure

that your hotel gets the review it deserves,

Not what I expected.

I was pretty unsure about coming here.

I mean... (chuckling)

the thought of trading in my swimsuit for a parka?

Not ideal,

...crisp air,

it's rejuvenating in its own way.

especially Mr. Green.

Although if I'd had the staff,

I would have sent out a search party.

Where on earth did you go?

Ah, we kind of turned it into more of a tour than just a hike.

- We got a little bit lost. - But it was great,

because we had all those interesting stories

and tidbits for the tour...

Yeah, and then you discovered the Peterson farmhouse,

which turned into an incredible experience.

And I think we're going to have to add it

- to the hike for next year. - That is a great idea!

Yeah, forests have always been spiritual places,

like a different world.

I read once somewhere that a walk in the forest

has the same effect on the mind as deep meditation.

So, anytime I have a creative block

I'll just come out here and it usually helps.

Anything to do with the winter season is like her thing.

I honestly have no idea what I did before I hired her,

because she does so much for me, it's kind of crazy actually.

Anyway, come over here. I want to show you this.

Okay, this right here is called a spile.

It's just a tap that allows the sap to run into the bucket.

You see, this one's almost full.

- Can I try it? - Go for it if you want.

- It's mostly like water. - (laughing)

Here.

Here, why don't you tap your own.

Here's your spile and your hammer.

Okay.

Yeah, there you go, right there.

Uh-huh. There you go.

the sweet spot.

Ah, good one, Mr. Green.

(chuckling)

Brigitte: Gather round, gather round.

- That's it. Ben? - Yeah.

Okay. (clears throat)

This is the part where the sap, which runs from the trees

is boiled down so the water evaporates,

and what's left is what we like to call liquid gold.

That's right.

So, it actually takes

about 40 to 50 gallons of sap to make just one gallon of syrup.

So, it really is just as precious as gold.

And even more delicious.

Ben: You got that right, Mr. Green.

And on that note, without any further ado,

the moment you've all been waiting for, a little sampling.

♪

Okay, so here's where we make our maple taffy

for you to enjoy.

So, what Brigitte's got here is boiling hot syrup,

and when she pours it into the snow, it'll begin to harden.

Next, you're going to take your popsicle stick

and you're going to sort of twirl it into the taffy

and you'll be making sort of like a little lollypop with it.

So, after that whole... flooding incident,

is that when you stopped pursuing your dream

of running your own hotel?

Well, my confidence definitely took a big hit.

Running my own hotel in New York,

even if it was a boutique, it's not exactly

the kind of job you get right out of college,

so I was really excited.

And then, one night, I was working late

and the kitchen staff told me about a leak

that I thought could wait until the next morning.

Clearly I was wrong, so, yeah an inch of water later,

I was fired, and that's when I started working at the agency.

You know,

kind of hard to mess up an eight by eight cubicle, right? Heh.

I can imagine why that would make you question yourself,

but take it from somebody who has been through

a lot of ups and downs in this business,

you have more than what it takes to run a place like this.

And I think it would be a shame

if you gave up on your dreams,

because without our dreams, what have we got?

Hmm.

You know what? I think when we're done with this,

this should go in the front entrance.

Really?

Yeah.

Why not bring a bit of the beach up to the north.

It can only brighten things up around here.

It's a lot of pressure.

I think it looks good here.

I agree. I think it's perfect.

Almost perfect.

There. Now it's perfect.

I mean, maybe they'll even get married at the ice chapel

and there'd be a reason to come back.

I'd like that... a lot.

Well, that makes me very happy to hear because, um...

I was actually going to ask you if...

you might be interested in joining me

on my next ice adventure in Finland.

I know it's very far away and you've got family here

and everything. Um...

I don't know. I just... I think we make a great team.

Are you sure? Because I feel like I kind of bungled

everything up since I've been here.

Like, I flattened the cake and I glued Chagnon, I--

No. No. Listen, you've got to give yourself another chance.

You are more than qualified.

But it's more than that.

Um... I...

Well, I, um...

I, uh...

Ben, Ms. Fisher,

how was the evening?

It was perfect.

Well, that's what we strive for here at the Ice Hotel.

Right, Ben?

That's right, yes.

Ms. Fisher, are you retiring for the evening?

Yeah. Yeah, I am.

Then, I'll have to make sure your last night with us

continues to be perfect, starting with some tea.

I'll bring that to your room.

Cool.

Thank you, Brigitte.

My pleasure.

Um...

So, you'll think about my offer?

Definitely.

Goodnight, Hannah.

Goodnight, Ben.

Goodnight, Brigitte.

Goodnight.

Is there any tea you have a preference for?

Oh, uh, definitely cloudberry. That one was unusually good.

It's right here.

Thanks.

Do you want help?

I could put a log on the fire. Where's the door to this thing?

Oh, no. Please. We don't let the guests do that.

Otherwise, we run the risk of the doors being left open,

and if too much heat escapes,

well, it could quite literally melt and flood this room.

You see, running an ice hotel is delicate work

and requires someone like myself,

who understands the fragile nature of ice and snow,

which is very important

because the slightest misstep or wrong decision

or even just an accident

could turn this place into a watery mess.

And I don't it would be fair to Ben to entrust his life's work

to inexperienced hands.

I truly hope you've enjoyed your stay with us, Ms. Fisher.

Phoebe: Isn't beautiful?

It looks just like a piece of ice.

Hannah: Stunning!

I'm so happy for you, Phoebe, really.

Thanks. And what about you and your dreamy designer?

- Oh. Uh, well-- - Wait, here he comes.

Um, I'll let you guys exchange numbers and emails and all that.

Hey, uh, they told me you checked out.

You should have had them buzz me.

Yeah, my shuttle came quicker than I thought.

I just-- I didn't want to miss my flight.

Right. Yeah, of course.

Um... did you have a chance to think about Finland?

Yeah, I slept on it. Uh, I just--

I really don't think it's for me,

all the ice and snow. I--

I'm more of a sun and sand kind of gal at heart.

Yeah, I understand.

Well, then, good luck, Hannah.

Um... thank you for everything.

You sure made things special around here this week.

It was special.

All right, I gotta go.

Yeah, okay.

But thank you for everything.

Bye, Ben.

Bye, Hannah.

Let's go.

Hannah!

- Hey, Mom. Welcome back! - There you are!

Oh...

Oh my God, I missed you!

Come on in!

Oh, you look so good; all bright-eyed.

Is that all from the cold air?

(chuckling) I guess.

Tell me about your trip.

It was fun, fun in the sun.

See, that is what I want:

no ice, no snow, just sun.

All right, Hannah, what's going on with you?

What? I'm... I'm fine.

No, you're not. What happened?

Nothing. Honest!

I-I had a good time. Just...

Hannah?

You're my daughter

and I know when something's upsetting you.

You know that staff member I was telling you about?

The one I was going to recommend?

Yes, I remember.

Okay. Well, he ended up being the hotel owner and designer,

and him and his dad have been doing this for years,

and he showed me this whole...

other world that was incredible, and I fell in love with it,

and we just-- we had such a good connection.

And then, he kind of offered me a job at his new hotel

in Finland, which I initially said yes to,

but, uh, then I just...

I just kind of... walked away.

That's everything you've dreamed about.

I mean, it's not a hotel on the beach,

but still...

I just got scared that I was gonna mess it up,

like I did my first opportunity,

and I couldn't do that to Ben.

Hannah, sweetheart,

you have to give yourself a second chance

'cause we're always gonna experience missteps.

That's life.

But you can't let them prevent you from taking a risk

or following your dreams

'cause, if you do,

you may never feel the joys life has in store for you.

Ben, what do you think?

I thought I'd do a special arrangement at the alter

Yeah, it looks good.

Thank you.

Um, Brigitte, there's something I wanted to talk to you about.

Um...

You mentioned a while back

that you were interested in the position in Finland,

and I just wanted to let you know,

if it's still something you want, it's yours.

Of course, I'd be interested, Ben, because I meant it

when I said I'd be happy to follow you anywhere.

Well, thank you, Brigitte.

But, Ben, do you really want me there?

Of course I do. You know how qualified I think you are.

Of course.

Well, thank you.

Thank you. Um...

Good night, Brigitte. I'll see you in the morning.

Good night.

Hey!

Hey! Did you get my report?

I did. That place will sell itself.

Yeah. I think it should be the front page of the brochure,

even on the website homepage.

Which you will officially be overseeing because,

congratulations, you got the management job.

Wow. Thank-- thank you so much.

That's-- that's great. Thank you.

Bonjour tout le monde.

Just the lady I was looking for.

Mr. Green?

(chuckling) Touché.

What are you doing here?

I came here to give you this.

Mr. Wade gave it to me as a reminder

of my experience at the Ice Hotel,

but I think you need to remember it more than I do.

Safe travels, Ms. Fisher.

What was that all about?

It's the Ice Hotel.

You know, Erin, um...

I can't take this job.

But thank you so much for the opportunity

I gotta go.

So, Louis Chagnon's review is already out.

Yes, I know. I read it last night.

And it was very complimentary to the hotel

and to our guest Ms. Fischer.

Yes. Yes, it was.

If you really need me to, I'll go with you to Finland,

but I've thought about it

and I think my expertise is best suited for this hotel.

But I do know of someone

who'd do very well in my place, and the truth is...

she probably would have gone with you,

had I not made her question herself,

because you were right,

Ms. Fisher is more than capable.

So, if you don't go after her and insist she go with you,

then I will...

right now.

Wait. What? What do you mean?

(chuckling)

Hannah... what-- what--

what are you doing here?

Well, I went home and I thought about everything,

and then Chagnon visited me,

and I thought about everything even more, and um...

well, I didn't take the promotion.

So... here I am.

Ben, I'm so sorry I walked out on you.

I was so excited with your offer and then I got--

I got so nervous, I just...

It's okay. Hannah, I understand. I'm so happy you're back.

Yeah, me too. And I hope your offer still stands,

but I understand if you hired someone else

because you're leaving so soon.

I should have gone after you and convinced you to go with me

because, truth is,

the only one I want with me is you.

Thanks for coming back.

Thanks for taking a chance on me.

Oh, I'm pretty sure you got this.

Yes, definitely.

You know, I think there is some truth behind those myths.

One journey's ending and another is about to begin.

Hey, speaking of which,

I was actually thinking about the theme in Finland.

I was thinking like seashells and, like, waves

I love that.
