I sent her the top 20 dating
ice-breakers.

Top 20?

I thought it was supposed to be top ten.

I know, right?

If there's that much ice to break,

maybe you shouldn't be on a date.

Hey, come here.

The Cyan.

Wintersports 820.

Are you getting that for your trip?

I wish.

It's a little steep on
an assistant's budget,

but a girl can dream.

Well, you could get the 620.

All the bells and whistles
for half the price.

That's not a bad idea.

Maybe we hit up the
store before the party?

If we ever get out of here.

I really wish you were coming
snowboarding this weekend.

Yeah, I've learned my lesson

on making plans around here.

Every time I book something,

Diane sends me another assignment.

Don't I know it.

Do you think she's read it yet?

Probably.

There's only one way to find out.

Diane, if now's not a good time, I...

Now is always a good
time for my favorite writer.

What do we have?

"Top Twenty Dating Ice-Breakers."

Love the headline.

Yeah, thank you.

For that.

You shouldn't feel undermined

because I write the
headlines in advance, Cara.

It gives the magazine...

A consistent voice?

See?

You were listening.

I like it.

But you don't love it?

I want to, but it
needs a bit more pizazz.

You know, maybe a cautionary
tale of a date gone wrong.

Don't underestimate the
value of your own personal...

Dating horror stories?

Perspective.

You're out there in the singles world.

I mean, let's see that.

Actually, I started seeing someone

recently.

Very recently.

Perfect, so I'm sure
you have some material.

I would but, the thing
is, it's going pretty well

and I was thinking, with the New Year's

maybe I could try to
keep my personal life

a little bit more...

Personal?

Um, as I recall, you asked
to be on the relationship desk.

But, I mean, if it's too much,

we can always put you
back on the beauty desk.

No, no.

I will make it better.

Cara, make it better next year.

It's New Year's.

You guys should be out having fun.

Really?

Yeah, really.

Don't come home till the sun comes up.

And then, you know, start
thinking about that re-write.

Happy new year.

Okay, how about this one?

Amazing.

Amazing because it's amazing

or amazing because we took
too long buying your snowboard?

Can't it be both?

We're never gonna make it
across town before midnight.

Why don't we go
to Jesse's rooftop party.

He lives just a couple blocks away.

I told you I can not go to Jesse's.

We've only been dating 3 weeks.

It's too soon.

You know, the old Cara
would've gone in a heartbeat.

Exactly, but the new Cara is careful,

aware that holiday
parties are synonymous

with romantic expectations.

You know that sounds
like one of your articles.

Yeah.

Shoot.

Hey.

What's this?

Nothing.

Nothing?

It's from Berkeley.

It's the grad program in
creative writing you applied to.

Maybe you got in.

Don't jinx it!

Don't you want to open it?

No no no no.
I can't.

You do it.

Okay.

Well, it looks like you're
gonna be bringing in the new year

with a bang.

You got in!

I'm so happy for you.

I'm kinda dying to tell Jesse.

Well, then let's hit
up that rooftop party.

Let's go.

I just can't believe I got in.

Well, I can.

I edited the first fifty pages
of that mystery you sent in

and I'm still dying to read the rest.

Well, you might get your wish

because if I accept, then I
have to show up February first

with the other hundred and fifty pages.

What do you mean "if"?

Well, it's a big decision.

I'd have to quit the magazine.

Ooh it's almost midnight!

10, nine, eight, seven,

six, five, four,

three, two...

Ooh, that's him over there.

Ooh, super cute.

On second thought, not so cute.

♪ Should old
acquaintance be forgot ♪

♪ And never brought to mind ♪

♪ Should old
acquaintance be forgot ♪

So, what's the rule here,

you read five pages, you gotta buy it?

If that's the case, I'm on the hook

for half the mystery section.

Well, you're in your happy place.

Meh, today, I'd call it
my glumly distracted place.

Come on, it's not that bad.

It's New Year's Day, you got
a couple of new mysteries,

our favorite scone, a cup of coffee

with a sustainable story attached to it.

And best friend who
thinks it's never to soon

to bounce back from heartbreak.

Okay, look.

So, Jesse showed you sooner than normal

that he was the wrong guy for you.

You should be focusing
on the good things

going on in your life right now,

like getting into grad school.

I don't know, Meg.

The more I think about grad school,

the more I think it's not a good idea.

What?

Man.

How did we wind up here?

What's wrong with this place?

We just finished our run in record time.

I was gonna treat you
to a wheat grass shot.

A, that's not a treat.

B, next time take me somewhere
that isn't also a bookstore.

I mean, last time we came in here,

I had to pry you out of
there with the jaws of life.

What do you want from me?

This is my happy place.

Two wheat grass shots, please.

Now that I think about it,

wheat grass isn't your worst idea.

I mean, we are gonna be

boarding the sheer face of a glacier

in the next few days.

Yeah, I wanted to
talk to you about that.

Any chance I could take
a pass on this weekend?

No, no, no.

No, Ben.

I already took time
off from the hospital

and Dr. Shawn is no longer
accepting cancellations.

All right, it's just
I'm under a lot of pressure

to stay out of the public eye right now.

What are you gonna do?

Stay at home and mope?

I don't mope, I brood.

Then brood on a snowboard.

Besides, you're doing
it for the charity.

Yeah, you're right.

Of course, yeah.

For the kids.

Bottoms up.

Anyway, you don't have to
worry about the public eye.

Clara Lake Resort is not exactly a scene

if you know what I mean.

You mean there's no chance
of running into anyone we know.

No one we know, no
one you'd want to know.

All I'm saying is you
shouldn't let this Jesse stuff

cloud you judgment.

You should weigh out the
pros, not only the cons.

I have been and grad
school feels like a huge risk.

I'm just supposed to
walk away from a job

most writers would dream about?

Ha, most writers don't
understand the job requirements

of working the relationship desk.

It's a lot of pressure,

this expectation that you
should be dating all the time.

It does take up a lot of energy.

Energy you need to finish your novel.

Maybe I should take a step back.

Yeah.

Get a little perspective.

Right?

Put dating on the back-burner.

Exactly.

Wait, what?

Just till I figure
this other stuff out.

Oooh, Diane is not gonna like that.

Diane won't have a choice.

Excuse me.

Come on, Sherlock.

No book browsing today.

We're jogging back.

When did you become my trainer?

Today.

So, that's it for beauty and fitness.

What's left?

Just relationships.

Right, Cara, loved
the ice-breaker changes,

which is good,

because I want you on
this new dating app, stat.

Dating app?

Well, see, the problem is I
can't actually go on dates.

I've given it up as a
New Year's resolution.

So, you're a relationship
writer who's sworn off dating?

I guess, yeah, that sums it up.

Cara, this is a story.

I already have a headline.

The dating plan's
perfect for New Year's.

We'll put it on the
site, reprint in February.

How did we do Diet Diary?

In three parts,

one Friday, one Saturday, one Sunday.

So, when you said Friday,
did you mean today, Friday?

Is there another Friday
I should know about?

No.

Look, Cara, if these segments
are as good as I predict,

you'll come back on
Monday to a new title.

Editor.

Thanks guys.

That's it.

Hey, what's going on?

I thought your cousin was
picking you up for lunch.

She's got the flu.

Trip's canceled.

No, can you get your money back?

Well, I'm on hold with
the resort right now,

but doesn't look promising.

Shoot.

Meg, you should go anyway.

I mean, who knows when
you'll get another chance.

I know I would.

Why don't you?

Please, I would love to go,

but I can't with this whole dating...

You would love to go where?

Megan's snowboarding trip.

Her cousin canceled and I can't just...

Go?

Why not?

I have so much to do.

I have three articles, one due today.

There's no point
going on a dating cleanse

if you're gonna hide out in the office.

I mean, it's about challenging yourself.

A ski resort would be pretty perfect.

I can't believe you're here.

A girls' trip to Clara Lake,

just like when we were in college.

Right?

The good old days when
our biggest problem

was choosing a fondue flavor.

Fondue.

Yes, something tells me

we haven't seen the
last of that fondue bar.

You've been pecking at that
thing for the last couple hours.

Are you actually getting work done?

One dating cleanse down, two to go.

The first one is called,
"From Dating Disaster.

To the Dating Cleanse."

Thank you, Jesse.

That's very mature of you.

Yeah, well, I have to
start thinking objectively

if I wanna be an editor.

If being an editor's
what you really want.

I don't know what I want anymore.

Grad school's such a question mark,

but jumping from writer to editor

just seems like a real thing, you know?

Well, maybe this trip will
offer you some perspective.

And maybe getting
some real writing time

will provide clarity.

You brought your manuscript.

I have to read it again
if I wanna finish it.

It's been months.

Cara Reneau, mystery writer.

Oooh.

Sounds good.

I like it.

And you know what they say,

you can be anybody you wanna be

when you're on vacation.

That's our exit.

Fondue bar, here we come.

Can't wait to carve an edge.

Thank you.

Okay, so, the bad news is
our chalet isn't ready yet,

but the good news is,
there's still enough daylight

that we can get a few runs in.

Okay, I just have to rent my board.

Let's do it.

Backward?

And everything.

You just need your left foot.

Right?

Looks like I'm late
to the rental party.

Is that all they have left?

No way, the Cyan 920?

Is that even in stores yet?

No, it's a custom.

I can't believe they're renting it out.

I'm gonna go get the lift tickets.

You grab that board
before somebody else does.

Sorry.

Yes.

Well, I seem to have my
eyes on the same board as you.

You seem to have a
pretty firm grip on it too.

It's yours.

As long as you know, it's
not the right board for you.

Yeah?

Why is that?

The top should fall
somewhere between your nose

and you chin,

but here it is, all
the way up to your eyes.

Unless you have an advanced rider

who wants to float at
fast speeds over powder.

But I am curious, why
are you so dead-set on it?

I've used this model before.

I guess you could say, I
like to know what I'm getting.

That's pretty
cautious for somebody

about to go careening down a mountain.

Careening?

Tumbling, falling.

With a boot size like yours,

you're gonna get some overhang.

You really want that kind of drag?

No, I suppose I don't, miss,

what did you say your name was?

I didn't.

Enjoy the board.

My quads were not
ready for those moguls.

Are you sure this one's ours.

We're far from the lodge.

I know, right?

It's almost like whoever picked it

was trying to avoid their
boss' cell phone calls.

Yeah.

This is so nice.

Nice job.

Thanks.

Oooh, snacks.

Now we're talking.

It's not addressed to us.

Think they forgot to clean?

Yeah, really.

Wait a second, this is still cold.

Somebody's here.

Hey, what are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

Well...

Wait, you know each other?

Okay, there must be
some kind of mistake.

Yes, there is.

This man is in our chalet.

No, no no.

I already checked in

and as you can see, I
rented half a chalet.

Well, that may be the case for you,

but we went through the
trouble of booking...

Half a chalet.

I'm calling the hotel.

This has to be fixed.

Hello, yeah.

I'd like to see if I could book a chalet

for two ladies who...

You have nothing?

You know, it doesn't
have to be a chalet,

it could be a hotel,
a cabin, broom closet.

Nothing?

Thanks for checking.

Well, I was planning
on opening this tomorrow,

but maybe we should crack it open now

and get to know one another.

Would you like a glass, Mr...

Just Ben.

I'm not much of a fancy
wine guy, but sure,

I'll give it a shot.

But my buddy will be stoked.

He loves a good Cabernet.

Wait, buddy?

There's more than one of you?

Hey, Ben.

How 'bout a heads up next
time we're gonna have guests.

Yeah, slight issue
with the fine print.

Look, these ladies are
gonna be in the other room.

Hey, look, you know what?

It's gonna be fine.

I called the lodge, but
the resort's fully booked up.

I sort of...

Messed up.

It's all good.

The more, the merrier.

I mean, it's a huge bummer,

considering our guys weekend and all.

Cool.

Is that Cabernet?

It sure is.

- You want a glass?
- Sure.

I'm Megan, by the way.

Shawn.

Cara.

Thanks.

I don't know about you guys,

but wine just doesn't taste
right without chocolate.

Oooh, I'll take one.

Thank you.

Really good.

Let's see what you guys got here.

Artisanal brie, royal fig jelly,

champagne?

You guys must be VIPs around her.

Oooh, these are cute.

Wine charms.

Not the wine charms.

What's wrong with wine charms?

How else would we know
whose wine is whose?

Makes you wonder how
people kept track of their wine

for thousands of years
before they were around.

Okay.

There's a really nice deck out front.

Maybe we should...

Yes, let's just take
this party outside.

Outside?

We just got warm.

I mean, that's what
the firepit's for.

Wine charm?

Thanks.

Enjoy.

Don't give up, Ben.

I'm sensing you're on your
way to a solid B plus fire.

Thanks, man.

Not much you can do with wet wood,

but hey, if you wanna go
and get some dryer logs...

Nah, you got this.

Besides, this weekend,
I'm avoiding doing anything

that could be considered work.

I'm not talking about
work, I'm not working out,

I'm not even work it on
the dance-floor, you know?

If you knew how
many variations of that

I heard on the way up, you
wouldn't be laughing either.

Well, I'm down with the sentiment.

In fact, we should make a
pact, no work talk, period.

I don't even wanna
know what you guys do.

Right on.

On that note,

I'm gonna power this thing down,

lock it in the glove box.

I am so there with you,

in spirit.

Hey, where's Cara?

She got caught up in
that word we can't mention,

but we should take pity on her.

She got slammed this weekend.

Nice, all right.

Sorry, man.

Come on.

I guess I'll go find some more matches,

unless of course, you'd like to.

No no no no, man, go to town, okay?

There are probably some in the kitchen.

Good idea.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Like I was saying,

vacation is all about
staying off the grid.

Yeah.

You know, there's some
instant light logs in the closet.

You have very little faith in me.

I've known you for
all of five minutes.

How much faith should I have?

Hey, I gave you my snowboard.

That has to be worth something.

Your snowboard?

Figure of speech.

I gotta hand it to you,

you got a great eye.

See this mark?

It means only 40 of
these were ever made,

which means only 39
are left in the world,

which means you lucked out.

Funny, you didn't mention that
in the pro-shop.

Didn't want to add fuel to the fire.

What fire?

You seemed pretty
dead set on getting it.

You should see me at a sample sale.

You know what?

You look really familiar.

What part of Seattle do you work in?

Hey, hey, you missed out on our pact.

This is a work-free zone.

No work talk.

Won't argue with that.

Then shut your
laptop and come join us.

It's leisure time.

Why does no one
understand this is leisure?

Lots of words,
super close together,

looks like work.

Look closer, it's a novel.

If you're a novelist
working on a novel,

it's still work.

Unless I'm a novelist
who's avoiding her real work,

which I have to work on later.

You realize just how many
times you said the word work?

I'm sorry, I'm not used
to words being off limits.

Kind of makes it hard to
get to know each other,

doesn't it?

Well, getting to
know you's overrated.

People give you signs
that tell you who they are.

Like, you know, typing
when someone's talking.

Robes, check.

Towels, check.

It is time for some R and R.

Ca...

Have you started a diary?

Nope.

That thing you said

about being anyone you
wanna be on vacation,

if I'm even considering
being a mystery writer,

then I've got to start taking notes,

treat the whole word
like one big mystery.

Like that couple of there,

they haven't talked
for five whole minutes.

What's the story there?

Maybe,

maybe they're tired from skiing.

What about Ben and
Shawn's $500 gift basket?

Well, actually, detective,

I have been doing some of my own digging

and there is a story there.

Turns out, the hotel sent it to them.

Come on, let's go, spa time.

Oooh, spa time.

Here it goes,

my last moments of
relaxation for the evening.

What do you mean?

Wi-Fi caught up with me
in the locker room.

Did Diane ask you to do something?

Yeah, but it's nothing.

There's a new position in the office

and she wants me to
post a job description.

But you're on vacation.

Yeah, but I can do it in my sleep.

In fact, watch, I'll do it right now.

Operations manager wanted
for women's magazine.

Must work well with
colorful personalities.

That's a nice way of putting it.

Have organized work habits
and in-depth knowledge

of our business needs.

Send.

Yeah, that sounds like
somebody who already works there.

What, me?

Come on, Diane's looking someone

with management experience.

I'm just her assistant.

Exactly, you manage Diane.

I manage her salads.

And her editorial schedules,
photo-shoots,

interviews.

I never really looked at it that way.

You know, in all honesty,
I've never really looked at it

at all.

I'm so focused on Diane,

my own stuff slips through the cracks.

That's not true.

You planned this trip.

Yeah, look how well that's going.

Who cares about the chalet?

We can still have our girls' trip.

Really.

Look, I'm just gonna take a deep breath,

mind my own business,
and pretend those guys

aren't even there.

Fair enough.

Why didn't the hotel
give us our own gift basket?

Zen-ing out over here, Cara.

Zen-ing out.

Right?

Shhh.

Are you really shushing us

at nine PM?

Yeah, he had a rough
day of not working.

He needs his beauty sleep.

Yeah, that's why there's
these things called bedrooms.

The chair is much more comfy,

plus I got my blanket, I got my cocoa,

I got my Agatha Christie.

And Then There Were None.

Yeah, found it on the bookshelf.

Got 50 pages left,

but I've narrowed it down to
either Vera or Judge Wargrave.

Don't ruin it.

I would never.

Although, I will say both
of your guesses are wrong.

Not hearing you.

I am curious why you
two aren't down at karaoke.

It's ladies night.

Which begs the question,

why aren't you there?

Well, sort of taking a
break from that whole world.

From he karaoke world.

No, from the dating world.

I guess you could call it a cleanse.

Hey, if it works for you,

more power to you.

Yeah, actually it is working for me.

It's helping me focus
on more important things

like...

Are you expecting someone?

Maybe.

Hey, man, thanks.

That's awesome.

You know, when I said

there were only 39 of
these left in the world,

now there's only 37.

You hear that?

What?

It's the first chairlift of the day.

Let's get out there.

I'm surprised you
have so much energy.

Weren't you working all night?

Good thing I was,
'cause I finished my second

dating cleanse post and
10 pages of my novel.

Look at you.

Must be the fresh mountain air.

Well, Diane sent me another headline.

What was it?

"Cleanse Complications,

How To Say No To Toxic Temptations."

Temptation?

Yeah, well, it was all hypothetical.

Not exactly temptation mountain up here.

Except for these.

I'm so looking forward to
the fresh mountain powder.

It snowed like nine inches last night.

And not a soul has touched it.

We'll be the first two out there.

Well, maybe not the first two.

Excuse me.

How did he get up there?

The lifts just started.

That guy?

Someone took him up there
in the snow grooming machine.

Now, do you agree
there's something up

with our chalet-mates?

Yeah, I think he
slipped the groomer a 20.

Okay, fine.

Well, what about the
mysterious, late night,

snowboard delivery?

Maybe he's an online shopper.

Come on, let's get to the summit,

before you get a server backstory.

It all began with a danish.

Dude, you should've
come with me, man.

How often do you get to be the
first person on the mountain?

About as often as I get to sleep in.

It's eight AM.

Dude, eight AM is
like noon for a surgeon.

All right, time for latte number two.

I'm gonna get a couple runs in

and don't forget our spa thing later.

I take my vacation time very seriously.

Before I forget,

she came by the chalet
earlier looking for you.

Mr. Livingston.

It's so great to finally
meet you in person.

Please, Ben.

You must be, Jennifer.

We are so grateful for
everything you've done

for Camp Snow.

I just wanted to ask you
about the benefit tonight.

Would you prefer to make
your speech before or after?

I'm sorry, speech?

There must be some mistake.

I'm donating to the event.

I'm not attending.

Are you sure?

There's gonna be a dance night

and the caterers...

No, I'm sure it's fantastic,

but I gotta stay out of
the public eye right now.

So, did the boards arrive?

Yes, the driver hit some traffic,

but he should be here soon.

Okay, well, can
you just do me a favor

and shoot me a text when they do?

Sure.

Might as well get to the top

before the crowd gets...

And the plot thickens.

Maybe he's offering
her a ride on the groomer.

Come on.

Th?

Board, fondue, hot tub?

As fondue's on the docket, I'm happy.

Hey, do you think I can
get some writing time in?

Yeah, be my guest.

The more you work on your novel,

the more likely it is you'll
say yes to grad school.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

Hi, Diane.

No, it's never too early to call.

- Listen, that job posting you put up...
- Is it okay?

Better than okay.

We got eight applicants already,

but we're in such a
rush and so overwhelmed.

Could you possibly screen them?

You mean like go over their resumes?

No, their resumes
all look the same to me.

I need you to screen them on the phone,

narrow them down to three.

You saw my schedule next week.

I can't possibly meet
with eight people myself.

But you don't mean like today, right?

Don't worry.

One of the interns
scheduled the calls already.

Actually, I better get off.

The first one's gonna
be calling you in like,

I don't know, a minute.

- What?
- But...

Megan, what would I do without you.

I can't believe this.

She wants me to screen
the candidates today,

like right now.

You can't let her ruin your weekend.

I'm not gonna let her ruin yours.

Why don't you head on to the top

and I'll meet up with you later.

Hi, thanks so much for
doing this on the weekend.

I hope you weren't too busy.

Good morning.

You're up early.

Yeah, I was hoping to get
the first run in of the day,

but some guy beat me to it.

You know what they say,

all's fair in love and snowboarding.

I don't think they say that.

Look, I kinda feel like
we got off on the wrong foot.

Did we?

I was hoping for a
weekend with my buddy,

maybe get some solitary
reflection time in.

I know the feeling.

What I'm trying to say is,

what if we just start fresh,

like what if we just met
right here in this chair lift?

What, like a proper introduction?

No signs.

You may mock me about
the whole sign thing,

but it's 100 percent fool-proof.

For example, last night
with the wine charms,

you chose the pineapple,

the least friendly fruit.

Least friendly or best defended?

Best defended or overly defensive?

I find that people have
all sorts of defenses,

like deflection.

Deflection?

Are you implying I
have something to hide?

Well, if we're going
on your wine charm theory,

I'd say you do.

You chose the sunglasses,
classic disguise.

What could that mean?

Trees or moguls?

Why do you ask?

Honestly, so I can do the opposite.

Came back early to read, did you?

A little static over there?

Yeah, under control.

Thanks.

Saw some hair bands in the bathroom.

Yeah, they'd be great

if only there was a
helmet that fit over them.

Did you finish reading?

Still think it's Vera?

Yeah, I actually I
moved onto another book.

Wait, you read my manuscript?

It was open on the coffee table.

You had no right to read this.

But I couldn't put it down.

I had to get to the end.
It's really good.

Well, it's just
something I threw together.

I actually came back to work on it,

get some solitary reflection time in.

I get it.

Dying to read more.

You seem a little too
content to be inside,

reading all the time.

Okay, let's just say I
haven't been super social lately.

Just laying low, no crazy nights out.

Something's not adding up.

You really are a mystery writer.

You claim to be laying low,

but it's not what I'm seeing.

Okay, what I'm seeing

is your being a little overly curious.

I'm telling you, sunglasses.

And you graduated
from Portland State?

That's a year after me, cool.

I have the same major as you.

Well, that's great.

I, we're gonna be setting
up in-person interviews

for next week and, you know what?

I will send you all the
details in an E-mail.

Okay, thanks, bye.

How am I supposed to sound authoritative

when the next time I see the candidates

I'll be offering them their
choice of tea or coffee?

What exactly am I doing here?

Management?

Well, then why am
I not up for the job?

'Cause they asked for it.

Another one.

Hi, thanks so much.

Wait, I walk out, so you walk in?

Must be one of your signs.

You sure you don't want any help?

The menu in there can
get pretty complicated.

It's called Beer N' Brats.

I think I can handle it on my own.

Well, sure, anyone can order a brat,

but garnishing it,

that takes serious know-how.

Great, so the
interview will be 9:30 AM

at Mallory Magazine.

Yeah, great, see you then.

Finally, last one.

Whoa, whoa.

I'm sorry, I didn't see you.

Megan.

Shawn.

You okay?

I'm okay,

but I think there's
something wrong with my wrist.

Okay, maybe you were right.

That was a perfectly-dressed brat,

but...

But?

Somebody's gonna have to
take me down the mountain

in a sled.

Yeah, I know that
condiment bar pretty well.

My brother and I used
to have topping contests

there when I was a kid.

I'm guessing you won?

We'd usually get chased out

before a winner could be declared.

I actually wasn't sure I'd
be allowed back into there.

But being up here on a day like today,

just makes me wish everyone
could have this, you know?

It makes you feel like
things could be just

perfect again.

Today was pretty perfect.

That's why I was wondering why you were

holed up, reading most of the day.

It's this new author I found.

She's becoming one of my favorites.

Besides I need a little rest

before I take on the
pipe where it all started.

Where it all started?

Yeah, I learned to snowboard up here.

I landed my first 360 in
that pipe when I was nine.

I thought no one was watching

and then I just hear clapping.

I turn around and my dad's
standing there watching.

All the older kids were laughing.

I thought I was gonna die.

I know the feeling.

My dad's a huge clapper too,

restaurants, birthdays, you name it.

He still thinks he's on the
sidelines at my soccer game.

I think my dad would've like him.

I'm sorry, I...

No, no, it's okay.

Being up here, I can almost hear it.

This place, this sport,
it was his passion.

We used to have the
best weekends up here.

I haven't had that kind
of fun in a long time.

Weekend's not over yet.

Day job?

Won't leave me alone.

It might not matter soon.

I've been accepted to grad school.

Congratulations.

Well, thank you, but
it doesn't mean I'm going.

This year, I'm trying
to be more cautious.

You know, think things
through, evaluate risk.

I mean, don't get me
wrong, my job is no picnic.

Insane deadlines,
phone calls all weekend,

but, I don't know,
it's one of these jobs

most people would kill for.

Yeah, I kinda have one of those too.

Okay, so you know, it's not
that easy to walk away from.

Wait, what's so great about your job?

I work at a snowboarding company.

Right.

It's all making sense now.

Well, that should be fun.

In theory.

You know what you said
earlier about your helmet?

It would be easy enough to out
a groove her for a ponytail.

Did I give you a business idea?

It's the kind of
thing we used to jump on,

but not anymore.

Innovation's taken a back seat to image.

Still, can't hurt
to pitch it to them.

You know, for someone who's
so cautious with her own life,

you dole out a lot of risky advice.

- I guess I...
- I guess you...

like to live vicariously.

You do realize we
just agreed on something?

I'll let it slide this time,

but don't let it happen again.

Shoot.

I forgot I gotta be somewhere,

so, I'll catch you later.

Yeah.

You sure you don't mind doing this?

I know you came here
to get away from work.

After I mowed you
down, the least I could do

is save you a trip to the hospital.

Plus,

I wasn't gonna leave you with that EMT.

You know, I got nervous
when he opened the X-ray manual.

How's this feel?

Tight.

It's only gonna get
worse if it swells,

so, keep it elevated and no devices.

Wait, no.

No no no no, I got a call in 10 minutes.

No, I don't think you
understood what I just said.

No devices.

No typing, no texting, no calling.

For how long?

Two to three days.

Ha, no no, that can't work.

No, no, that can't work.

You don't know my boss.

I can't tell her that.

She'll never listen to me.

But maybe she'll listen to a doctor.

Hi, Diane, I meant to text you back,

but my mittens kept getting in the way.

It's a little snowboarding humor.

Don't get too distracted, Cara.

There's a lot of eyeballs
on this third post.

It needs to be a real
showstopper, right?

Yeah, sure.

Maybe something about
how much you can get done

while you're not dating.

I meant something
people would wanna read.

Um, tell you what.

I'll work on some headlines...

Um, okay.

Well, have fun, but remember,

I need that third post by midnight.

Don't be late.

You got it.

If you're looking for your friend,

she's downstairs.

Who, my friend?

Yeah, petite, dark
hair, purple jacket.

You mean Megan.

Yeah, she's in the infirmary.

Wh...

It's all good.

She banged up her wrist or something.

No.

It's this way?

Yeah, right down there.

Thank you.

You got a visitor.

Hey, hey, are you okay?

Could be worse?

What happened?

It's just a minor
fracture and a sprain.

She'll recover a lot
faster without this.

You sprained your wrist?

Might even save her weekend.

Hey, my phone.

How are you feeling?

Well, other than this, I'm hungry.

Ben, you've really outdone yourself.

I was expecting five or six boards,

not 15 of them, signed by Travis Bretz.

Yeah, well you can
thank Travis for that one.

He couldn't have signed them
if you hadn't donated them.

Giving every kid the
chance to go to camp,

no matter how little they come from,

well, that's really important to me.

Well, if all goes well tonight,

even more kids will be able to attend.

It's a good guest list.

I can't help but think if these people

saw your level of involvement,

they may follow your lead.

Look, any other time, I
would be front and center,

but I mean, I just can't do

any public appearances right now.

Okay, but there's not
gonna be any press tonight,

just my own photographer.

It's gonna be really low key.

It's just so rare that one
night of somebody's time

can mean so much to so many kids.

I got to hear someone
say no to Diane today.

Shawn actually called.

You should've been there.

He was all doctorly,

like, "No devices for the next 48 hours,

doctor's orders."

So good, I wish I was there.

What did you get up to today?

You know,

boarding, riding, more boarding.

I talked to Diane

and I had lunch with Ben.

Like a lunch lunch.

What'd you guys talk about?

Nothing heavy.

I guess he works at a
snowboarding company.

And we talked about my manuscript.

What?

Yeah, I accidentally left it out

and I guess he sort of read it.

You don't show your
writing to anybody.

Now, you tell me he skipped
on snowboarding today

to read your manuscript?

He's a big reader, I don't know.

And then before that
we got stuck together

on a chair lift.

Well, I was trying to avoid him.

Guess you didn't see the sauna rules.

Number one, no brooding.

Look, it's just this
charity thing tonight.

I feel like I should go.

I thought you weren't
doing any public events.

Yeah, I know.

The woman running it,
she was very convincing.

And she said could put
me at the back, no media,

no name tags.

Then go, no biggie.

I'll be right there at the bar,

winning the trivia contest without you.

Yeah, but see that's the thing.

It's our last night.

I feel like I should be hanging
with the group, you know?

The group?

And which members of the group
do you anticipate missing?

'Cause I know it isn't me.

Cara.

Did she say something about me?

No, but I'm sensing
she dislikes you less

than she did yesterday.

Meg, you know that
I am on dating cleanse.

And even if I wasn't, Ben
is not good dating material.

He's got way too much
going on behind the scenes.

He's got secret meetings
and snowboard deliveries.

I like to write
mysteries, not live them.

And after everything that
happened on new year's,

I just, I wanna be cautious.

Fair enough.

Just don't be too quick to judge him.

He'll show you who
he is in his own time.

Tell me this,

what would happen if
you told her the truth?

You mean if I told her who I am?

Yeah, but then she's
just one mouse click away

from reading that story.

Well, I'm guessing
you're pretty beat,

so you wanna just rest up tonight?

No, tonight is our last night

and rumor has it that
there's this trivia contest

and Shawn asked me to enter with him.

Cute.

Wanna come?

No, I don't wanna be a third wheel.

You could be the fourth wheel.

Why don't you ask Ben to join?

That might conflict
with dating cleanse.

It's not a date, it's trivia.

No, I meant writing it.

I still owe Diane one more post.

I was hoping to hike
back up to the chalet

and get one last gulp of
fresh air before I start.

You sure?

Yeah.

Hey.

Just the girl I was looking for.

Hey.

You heading out?

Yeah, I'm gonna hike
back up to the chalet.

Have some work to finish.

So, you're staying in tonight?

Um, I don't know.

Actually, Megan mentioned
something about a trivia contest.

I'm not sure if that's
your speed, but...

What time?

- Like eight-ish.
- Eight?

You know I sort of
committed to something at eight,

which I should probably focus on.

Will you just give me one minute.

I should actually head
out before it gets dark.

Jennifer.

Ben.

What do you think?

It looks awesome.

Look, I've had a change
of heart about tonight.

That's great.

Happy to hear it.

Can I bring a guest?

Sure.

Cara.

What is that buzz?

Ben, what are you doing?

Look, I'm sorry I
took off back there.

I was trying to see if
I could bring a plus one.

Plus one?

Yeah.

The woman I was talking to,

she's throwing this
auction dance tonight.

It's for Camp Snow.

I don't know if you've heard of it.

Sure, yeah.

They send underprivileged
kids to snowboarding camp.

Right, so my company
donated some boards

to the benefit tonight.

Now, I know you have a deadline.

I have no idea if it would be fun,

but I do know the chance of having fun

would be much higher
if you were with me.

Okay, but how's this gonna work,

'cause you're not dating
and I'm not dating.

No, we don't have to call it a date.

Nope, we can call it an outing.

But we have to leave pretty soon.

Hence the snowmobile.

If you say so.

All right.

What do I hold onto?

Me.

Well, for once
I'm glad I over-packed.

Am I overdressed?

No, you look perfect,

for the occasion, I mean.

Of course.

Boy, I must look ridiculous in this.

Then we will look
ridiculous together.

Cara, listen.

The reason I'm involved
in this thing tonight...

See, an overly curious person

would need to know everything about you.

Good thing you're not one of those.

Let's just enjoy our date.

Outing.

Hi, so nice to see you again.

Thank you so much for coming.

I just wanted to let you know

how much your donations mean to us.

Enjoy yourself.

Bye.

Hi, Ben.

You must be the
guest he asked me about.

Cara Reneau.

Jennifer.

Nice to meet you.

Ben, the snowboards look fantastic.

Good, glad to hear it.

If you wanna come in
and grab yourself a drink.

You know, actually, do you mind

if we just spend a couple
minutes in the library?

Sure.

This room, I had no
idea it was even here.

Yeah.

It's great.

I guess the lodge used
to be a private home.

This is the only room that
survived the renovation.

I'm guessing you spent a
lot of time in here as a kid?

When I wasn't dominating
on the half pipe.

Yeah, of course.

Look at this.

First edition, Arthur Conan Doyle.

The Valley of Fear.

I stayed up all night
reading that as a kid.

Well, you're braver than me.

I was terrified of Moriarty,

I could only read it during the day.

Thank you for bringing me.

Okay, full disclosure.

I actually really wanted
you to see this place.

I don't know, I thought it
might be a sign, you know?

Of what?

Of what you should be doing.

Really?

So, I should quit my
job and go to grad school

because of one of your signs?

No, I meant become a librarian.

Maybe I shouldn't have brought it up.

No.

No, look, it's a big decision.

I should talk about it.

Both options are good options.

I'm just not sure how I'll
feel in a year from now.

Okay, well if you can't look
forward, can you look back?

What made you wanna write
mysteries to begin with?

It always felt like a safe place.

You can invent danger and adventures

that have nothing to
do with your real life

and in the end it all gets tied up

and it's usually the good guy wins.

I think you just nailed
why I like reading so much.

Look, if I were a betting man,

I'd say you should jump
on this grad school thing.

I would put money on the fact

that you can get your
name on this shelf.

But you're not a betting guy.

'Cause you like to
know what you're getting.

Well, I thought I did,

but this weekend's made me realize

there's something to be
said for the unexpected.

I mean, when you walked into my chalet,

started handing out the wine charms,

I was sure my weekend was ruined.

And?

It's not over yet.

Okay, shall we?

Welcome to the annual
Camp Snow benefit auction.

If everyone could please gather around.

Let's begin with the
Cyan 920 Ice snowboard,

signed by Travis Bretz.

We start the bidding at $1500.

Do I hear $1500?

Man in the yellow tie for $1500.

Okay, the first
snowboard was made by tying

two skis together and
it was called a snoller.

Snoller?

It's gonna be snurfer, watch.

- I had snurfer.
- It is, it is.

That's a a funny...

I knew it, I knew it.

That's good.

Sold for $3600 to
the woman in stripes.

Next up is the Cyan limited
edition 920 Lightning.

- Freestyle, boardercross?
- B.

Boardercross, right?

You know I got through med school by
picking B on all my multiple choices.

That's how you got
through med school?

Yeah, yeah.

Ha.

Air high-five.

Air high...

Good job, good job.

It still hurts.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Okay, that concludes the auction.

Thank you so much for
your generous support.

I hope you all stay
around for the dance.

I think that went pretty well.

Um, yeah, I'd say that adds
up to a lot of happy campers.

Ben, if you have a moment,

there's some people
I'd like you to meet.

Okay.

I...

But, Ben you
promised me this dance.

Sorry.

Can't keep a lady waiting.

Thinking on your feet?

Should've worn my flats.

I might have to be on my feet all night.

She keeps hounding you.

So, given all the boards
are Cyan Wintersports,

I'm guessing that's where you work.

Nothing escapes your
eagle eye, inspector.

Ben, could I steal a quick photo?

I don't know...

It's just for our next promo event.

You two are such a lovely couple.

Okay.

Camera shy?

Publicity shy.

So, you deal with the public.

I try and avoid it.

Well, we seem to be in it now.

Are we?

I didn't notice.

Works for Cyan Wintersports,
doesn't like publicity.

You are quite the mystery, Ben.

Well that's good,

because you like mysteries.

Hey, you mind if we get a little air?

Maybe grab some champagne?

It's so beautiful,

the lights and the snow.

I wish I knew about this place earlier

with the library.

I would've come here to write.

It sort of reminds me of
my favorite spot back home.

Favorite spot?

Yeah, it's just this cafe.

It's sort of a bookstore too.

Anyway, they make their own scones.

Wait, not the one on Ballard?

With the chandeliers?

Exactly.

What, you've been there?

I go there all the time.

That is so weird.

I wonder how we've never
crossed paths before.

Maybe it's a sign we
were meant to be here.

Yeah, that's probably a good thing.

Yeah.

I can see how things can
get pretty overwhelming.

Yeah.

At your public-facing
job at Cyan Wintersports.

Look at you, detective.

You've almost cracked this case.

Yes, but there is one set of dots

that I can't seem to connect.

Why come here if you
don't wanna be recognized.

I don't know.

I just figured if I came up here

where I first fell in
love with the sport,

maybe it would all stop
feeling like work, you know?

Maybe I could just
press reset, start over.

Well, here's to new beginnings.

All sorts of new beginnings.

You know, for someone
who's not dating,

you're pretty comfortable on an outing.

Well, maybe it's the company.

Anyway, the whole not dating thing

is sort of a recent development.

So, who was he?

It wasn't about a guy.

It was about me.

Like you said, hitting the reset.

Although, I guess there was guy.

Well, I wish I could thank him.

For what?

For whatever he did to lose you.

If he hadn't, I might not have met you.

One more dance?

One more dance.

Aw.

Did you get this from
the list of restaurants

that Megan left for...

Ben Livingston, Ben Livingston.

You know, I think Jennifer went home.

Man.

I never got to meet all those people.

I mean we don't have to keep dancing.

We don't have to, but we could.

That is not your phone.

That is totally someone else's phone.

I'm so sorry.

Do you mind if I...

Just really quickly.

I just have to check.

Yeah.

It might be my boss.

I'm really sorry.

This is so embarrassing.

What is it?

Well, apparently, it's highly urgent

that I call my boss back
immediately, stat, asap.

Okay.

I am so sorry.

No, do it.

This won't take long.

It's a little late
for a business call.

What's up?

Yes.

Hey, Cara.

Hey.

I didn't know you two were still here.

Look at you, fancy schmancy.

Yeah, perfect blizzard attire.

I'm guessing Ben roped
you into that work event.

Kicking and screaming.

How are you two doing in there?

We destroyed it.

Well, I wouldn't say destroyed.

It's not a cage fight
or anything like that.

And we still have another round to go.

Hey, how did you finish
that final post so quickly.

Well, I haven't actually
started, which I'm guessing

is what all these E-mails
and texts are about,

so if you'll excuse me...

Good luck.

Next round.

Let's go.

Cara, hi.

Hi, I got your text.

I don't want you to worry.

I'll have that last
post to you by midnight.

So, you haven't written it yet?

No, I haven't.

Good.

I think we might be able to take it

in a bit more of an
interesting direction,

happy ending for you and the reader.

I'm not sure I understand.

I'm looking at a photo of
you at a charity event tonight.

Okay.

With Ben Livingston.

I mean, I went with
a friend named Ben

if that's what you're asking.

So, you know him?

Yes.

Yes, I think I do.

The CEO of Cyan Wintersports?

Wait, Ben is the CEO?

The photo went live?

So, what does that mean?

She's a girl I met here.

Why do I even have to explain myself?

Okay, look, I know I
said I'd take no risks,

but...

She's a what?

It's a publicly trading company.

Livingston's been on the
entrepreneurs to watch list

for the past three years.

He did tell you all that, didn't he?

Well, not in so many words, but...

Of course, he's a known player,

but you're smart.

I'm sure you sniffed
that out pretty fast.

Are you sure?

But the man I know is nothing like that.

I mean, if anything, he's honestly...

Tell you what, I'll text you a link

and you can decide for yourself.

Hold up.

Your publicist said what?

Cara's a journalist.

Worse, a relationship journalist,

one whose entire career, apparently,

is based on writing about her own life,

about her own dates.

Are they any good?

It doesn't matter.

I don't wanna wind up in one of 'em.

Look, my publicist, he
said it's probably best

if I head back tonight.

Do what you've gotta do.

I'll get a ride back,
figure something out.

Are you sure you don't wanna
talk this over with Cara.

I mean, maybe there's an explanation.

No, no.

I gotta take this for what it is.

It's a sign.

It's a sign that this
wasn't meant to work out.

See you in Seattle.

Cara, you don't have to
be the victim in all this.

What are you talking about?

Let's turn the tables on this guy.

Make the last dating cleanse
post about Livingston,

how you met the ultimate toxic bachelor

and threw him back.

I'm not using someone's name

to get a higher click-through.

You don't have to do anything.

I mean, there are plenty of people

who are perfectly happy
working on the beauty desk.

I didn't think you'd be one of them,

but maybe I was wrong.

Diane, I...

I'm simply asking you
think about it, okay?

You have two and a half more hours.

I'm texting you the
headline right now...

Diane?

Great, dead battery.

Hey, sorry.

My call ran a little long.

Yeah, I got a call too.

You know, I'm kinda beat.

I think I'm gonna head
back up to the chalet.

But you know, Shawn and Megan,

I think are gonna stay for a while.

Maybe you should hang
out and stay with them.

No, I've gotta head back
up anyway to get my truck.

Some stuff came up.

I gotta head back to the city.

Tonight?

Yeah, okay.

Well, you better get going.

Right.

The longer we wait,
the harder it will be.

Best just to get it over with.

Sure.

The drive, I mean.

Okay.

And presenting the trophy
to the newly-crowned queen

of ski-trivia.

Congratulations.

Thank you and to you too.

You deserve it, yeah, yeah.

How is it I've never seen you before

and we live three blocks
away from each other.

Maybe I was meant
to run into you here.

Run into you, bump into you.

My...

Too soon?

You know, this is gonna sound crazy,

but I'm almost, almost
glad that you did.

I mean, I haven't had
this much fun since,

since I started working.

Well, you say that
like it has to end.

Well, I am going home tomorrow.

Yeah, true, but I was thinking

maybe we could...

Guys, sorry to do this,

but we've just been informed
that the roads are closed.

They'll be back up once
the plows get through,

but maybe find a comfy couch.

It'll be a long night.

I guess this is it.

Yep.

Drive safely.

Anyway, I have a lot of writing to do.

Yeah.

Great.

Let's see how bad it is.

Where's that little radio?

I got it.

With snowfall

up to two feet expected,

temperatures dropping to minus 40,

residents are encouraged to stay inside.

Road closures in Powderbowl,
Wenatchee Peak, and Clara Lake.

Looks like we're stuck here.

You ready to try this?

Yeah, hang on my fingers are numb.

Hurry up, freezing.

I don't get it.

How did you manage to use all
those matches on the firepit?

I had to.

I couldn't use the easy-light logs.

Why not?

Because then you would've won.

How could I know we'd have
the only chalet in the world

without a lighter.

Who needs a lighter
when you have a girl scout,

a battery, and steel wool?

Yeah.

You're a lot better at that than me.

You must be good at some things.

How else would you become the CEO?

Cara, I was trying to
tell you before the auction.

To be honest, I'm surprised
you didn't figure it out.

What with, you know,
being a journalist and all.

Do you have a problem with that?

You tell me, I might
be a little biased.

Journalists haven't always
given me a fair shake

or done their fact checking.

So, that story about you wasn't true?

You read it?

Just so you know, I'm
not that kind of journalist.

I'm more on the romance
and relationship beat.

I write lists about dating.

What, like 10 first-date donts?

It was actually 20, but yeah.

It's funny you should mention it.

You know what the first one was?

Never leave abruptly.

I guess I deserve that.

Look, my publicist got upset

when the picture of us went live.

He said it would be best if I just left.

So, it wasn't your idea?

No, are you kidding?

I didn't want the night to end.

Look, I'm gonna tell you everything

and let you be the judge.

No matter how this ends between us,

I don't want it to
be because of secrets.

Will you just hear me out?

Indoor camping.

This is quite an end to
the weekend, Shawn?

No complaints here.

I mean,

nothing went the way I
thought it would this weekend,

but, in a way, I think it
was exactly what I needed

to get out of my work vibe.

Don't I know it?

I mean, with my devices
gone and, let's face it,

my boss gone,

I realize how much I'm
missing out on life.

I need to make a change.

I need a long-term plan.

I was more worried about
your short-term plan.

Really?

Why?

Like, I don't know.

Dinner, Monday?

I know this great French
restaurant in our neighborhood.

They serve a mean souffle.

Maybe I can plan that far ahead.

So, I'm in college in Boulder,

boarding every day

and I just think the boards
could be better, you know?

So, I just start shaping my own,

just clowning around
with fiberglass and epoxy

in my dorm room,

but then my friends start buying 'em.

One of 'em goes pro and boom,

Cyan was born.

That sounds like a fairy tale.

Yeah, it pretty much was,

until we went public last year.

Then the board of directors took over

and they decided I was the brand

and my life stopped being mine.

All of a sudden, the people I was with,

the people I dated,

they all affected the bottom line.

Something tells me

this is where the world
champion skier comes in.

You know, we were only
dating for about a month.

She was training pretty hard,

said I was distracting her,

and so we broke up.

A week later, she blew out her knee,

tanked at the games, and the
press decided a broken heart

sounded better than a broken knee.

Of course, it ran just
as we were launching

our women's line.

Board of directors almost fired me

just to keep up appearances.

Appearances?

But the company's yours.

No, it's the shareholders' company

and the board reports to them.

They vote Monday on
if I get another term.

So, what now?

Well, they told me to
stay out of the public eye.

You know, Ben, our lives
are pretty different,

but I sorta get it,

not knowing where you
end and your work begins.

That pretty much sums it up.

But I was wrong not to just
tell you all this stuff.

No, I can see why you didn't.

Look, we came up here to reset,

not to meet someone.

The whole dating cleanse was...

Dating cleanse?

Yeah, it's a series of articles

that I'm writing to...

No, what time is it?

11:45.

I was supposed to
get my last post in today

and before midnight.

Well, there's no one stopping you.

But I can't.

My phone's dead, my laptop's dead.

Can it wait till the power's back on?

No, I have to do this now.

Otherwise, I might never.

Okay, well use mine.

Yeah?

Yeah, got a few minutes of juice left

and I'll send it out
when Wi-Fi is back up.

Thanks.

This won't take long.

Wait, you're doing it in there?

It's freezing.

Yeah, I have to.

What that skier said about you is true.

You are distracting.

I'm gonna take that as a compliment.

Don't get ahead of yourself.

That was fast.

Yeah.

It's weird how easy things are

when you know what you need to do.

Think you'll boss will like it?

I don't think it's
what she's expecting,

but let's just say
it's what she's getting.

I'm kind of inspired.

Believe it or not,

I've come to a realization this weekend.

What's that?

Some risks are worth taking.

Hey hey hey, we've
come to rescue you guys.

The storm finally let up a bit.

The roads opened up a
little sooner than we thought.

Look at that.

Hey, we can heat up the pizza now.

Yeah.

We've got wine.

We can have a picnic.

Yeah, have a seat.

Unfortunately, we're
gonna have to eat and run.

Yeah, this storm is just the opening.

There's a bigger one
coming in a few hours

and the roads could be closed for days.

And I have a six AM
hip replacement on Monday.

Sorry, buddy.

I'm gonna start packing.

I might need a hand.

So, it seems like our
outing's come to an end.

So it seems.

But, we are in the same area code,

which means I only have
to ask for seven digits

of your phone number,
which is way less awkward.

I don't know.

What if your company doesn't approve?

If they don't, I might just
have to get a new company.

I think this is your phone.

Just gonna warm up the truck.

You wanna explain this?

Look, Ben, I know
what this looks like,

but my boss, she sends
me these headlines

and I...

How did that even come up.

No, it's from before.

Before what?

Before my phone died.

Nothing you're
saying makes any sense.

Okay, but you have
to believe me, please.

This is just a big misunderstanding.

Is it?

Because it seems like
it's black and white.

This is all my fault.

I should've told you
what I working on before.

No, this is my fault.

I was looking for signs
when there weren't any.

Thanks for driving.

If I keep my eyes on the road,

I won't have to think about how badly

I messed things up with Ben.

Well, if you need an
additional distraction,

I'm about to power up my
phone for the first time

in 24 hours.

Good luck.

No.

My goodness.

I gotta make a call.

Do you mind listening in?

It might cheer you up.

Megan, thank goodness.

Are you alive?

Are you close to the city?

How are your hands?

I'm fine.

I'm sorry to bother you.

I just need to check the schedule.

The schedule's a mess.

The intern who covered for
you put it on east coast time.

Monday at nine AM, is there time

to fit in another interview?

For the new position?

Of course, what's the candidate's name?

I wanna look them up.

Megan Marquand.

That's you.

Yes, it is.

When I was screening the candidates

I realized that I was just as qualified

and I know your business
better than anyone else.

It's just, I've never
though of you that way.

Well, it's never too late to try.

Well, till Monday then.

Make sure you bring your resume.

Okay.

Thank you.

I can't believe you just did that.

Me neither.

Well, if Diane is ever
gonna see me differently,

I need to see myself differently.

Do you mind helping me update my resume?

No, of course not.

It's a great idea.

You know, sometimes people
need to see things on paper

to realize what they've been missing.

Hey, what's up?

I thought we were eating at your office.

Yeah, we may need to
find a new lunch spot.

No.

Did the board vote to...

They didn't get the chance.

I quit as soon as I walked in the door.

You quit the company you founded?

Well, I founded one company,

I'll found another, right?

That's the idea anyway.

So, you're free?

Well, why aren't you jumping
up and down, cheering?

Right.

Her.

Yeah.

You know the article Cara
wanted me to send to her boss?

The one I thought I was
some expose about me?

It wasn't.

I don't understand.

What was it?

Here, maybe I'll just read it to you.

Dear Ms. White,

I cannot tell you what
a learning experience

Mallory Magazine has been.

I've had some great experiences

and I've learned a great
deal about the industry,

people, and myself.

However, in light of my acceptance

into a graduate program,

please accept my resignation
effective February first.

Now, Cara,

I know you didn't write this, did you?

Look, I know how vindictive men can be,

so if that Livingston guy wrote this

or convinced you to write it,

we can just delete delete.

I mean, unless...

I really did learn a lot here.

I see.

I just, I wish I would've known

what I could've done differently.

Nothing, you have
a magazine to run here

and that's what you have to do.

This is just what I have to do.

Well, I don't agree with your choice,

but I do admire your conviction.

Few people have it.

Hang onto it.

Okay.

Cara.

Go get 'em.

Hey, Cara.

I'm gonna miss you around here.

Me too, miss operations manager.

This came for you.

Thanks.

I was afraid you wouldn't show up.

And yet, here I am.

Look, I know I'm sorry won't cut it.

You could always try it out.

I am really really sorry.

Anyone seeing that headline

would've thought the same thing.

No, I should've given you
the benefit of the doubt.

Well, I'll have plenty of time

to think about forgiving
you when I'm in grad school.

You accepted?

That's awesome.

Congrats.

I'll have plenty of time
to make it up to you.

I quit my company today.

What?

I don't understand.

Well, it's a long story,

but going up to Clara Lake, meeting you,

it made me realize it was
time to start something new.

Wow, I had a hard
enough time quitting my job

and it wasn't even a company I started.

Yeah, well, it wasn't
my company anymore.

The next one will be.

Well, I can hardly wait.

What are you thinking of making?

I'm not sure yet,

but probably a helmet
with room for ponytail.

So what, you just
walked into the board

and said, "I'm leaving"?

No speech, no press release?

Well, I had this.

But that was just to remind me.

Of what, your hatred of wine charms?

No.

Of a girl I met one winter weekend

who taught me that some
risks are worth taking.

So, can I ask you on a real date?

Well, we are in the romance section.

At one point in my life, I
would've called that a sign.

And now?

I think I'm through with signs.

It's time to make some of my own.
