Nature of Love (2020) - full transcript

City girl Katie is writing a magazine feature on a glamping resort. Far from sporty, she faces her fears trying the camp's activities with help from Will, a rugged outdoorsman and nature guide.

- Katie!
- Yup?

Can you help?

I need a blurb
on this new perfume.

You know the drill,
20 words or less?

Okay, um, hmm...

How about, "This combination
of vanilla and rose

will whisk you away to days
spent reading Jane Austen

in an English country garden?"

That'll work.
Send that to me

- Sure.
- Thanks.

Sabrina, hey, um,



do you think there's a chance

that I could maybe
work on something

with more than 20 words?

You know, like, I don't know,
a paragraph,

or a couple of paragraphs?

I'm sorry, Katie,
I need the blurbs.

Sure.

Queen of the Blurbs,
at your service.

Oh, no.

What? Is everything okay?

Brooke Palmer broke her leg,

and she's supposed to go
on assignment this weekend.

Oh, no...

but does that mean that
you need to send somebody else



on the assignment?

We'll have to.

We need this article
for the summer issue.

I'll do it.

I'm sorry?

I'll do it.
I'm up for it.

Katie, you don't even know
what it is,

and Brooke's our most
accomplished travel writer.

I know.

I'm ready.

The assignment is glamping.

I'm sorry?

Glamping.
It's like camping plus glamor.

Camping?

In the woods?

With the bears, and...

all things
I'm totally not afraid of?

Well, it's not roughing it.

It's fancy.

Wow.

Well, I can do fancy.

It's a week
at Sunrise Peaks Resort.

Sounds intimidating...

...but awesome!
Awesome.

Maybe... this gig
isn't for you.

No, no, no, Sabrina,

I can do this, okay?

I can do this.
I-I-I want to do this.

Okay, do you even own
a pair of hiking boots?

That is my point.

You are a city girl, Katie.

And that, Sabrina,
is my pitch.

I will bring a fresh
and honest perspective.

All right, city girl.

I like it.

Really?

Mm-hmm.
Pack your bags.

You're leaving tomorrow.

Oh, thank you, Sabrina,
thank you so much.

I promise you,
I will not disappoint.

Good.

Oh, and just so you know,

we don't tell the resorts
that you're press.

Usually, we would register
with a fake name, but...

Nobody knows who I am.

I'm a rookie,

but I'll still, of course,
be totally undercover.

All right.
Well, good luck.

Thank you.

Oh, one more thing,

how many words?

2,000.

Cool.

Thank you.

You'll be in Camp Two,
in the Oak Tent.

Okay.

Oh, I guess there are no keys
for this check-in.

Correct.

No need for keys with a tent,

but in the meantime,

please feel free
to help yourself

to our pastry and coffee bar,

and when you're ready,

I'll be happy to take you
and your bag

down to your base camp.

- Thank you.
- You're very welcome.

Laurence...

will you take this bag
down to Base Camp Two?

Try one of the crullers.

Chase, who just checked you in,
he went to culinary school,

and it's just one
of the many reasons

why we're lucky
to have him here.

I'm Olivia Barry,

my family owns the resort.

Oh, it's so nice to meet you.

Um, this place is just...

wow.

- And you are?
- Katie.

Yeah. Just... just Katie Ryan.

Well, Ms. Ryan,

you are in the best hands,

because Chase is going to be
your camp butler

during your stay,

and he's available 24/7.

Camp butler?

Am I staying at a castle
or a campground?

Well, we aim
for a little bit of both.

Please enjoy your stay,

and if there's
anything you need, just ask.

Thank you.

I'll be taking you
to your accommodations.

Over that way is the spa
and outdoor yoga facility,

and just down the hill,
we have our organic garden.

All the vegetables
that we serve on site

are grown on site.

Wow.

Your stay should be
fun and exciting

and good
for your overall well-being.

Wow...

And then there's the zip-lining,

and the ropes course,

which is actually
quite thrilling.

I highly recommend it.

Okay.

Here at the resort,

we have kayaking,
canoeing, fishing,

horseback riding,

or if you so choose,

you can just relax by the lake
and enjoy the view.

Now you're talking.

Um... well, there's a horse.

There's a horse, right there.

We'll just...

Let's just wait here a second.

Okay, but should we
be worried, though?

Because it looks like
it's coming right at us.

Whoa!

That's it, Lucy.
Easy girl.

Hey, Chase.

Didn't mean to interrupt.

No problem, Will.

Have a good day.

Was that Will Martin?

The guide that climbs mountains
and hikes across Alaska?

The one and only.

He's our head Wilderness Guide.

He's actually
part of the reason

I wanted to work here.

Aside from being
a seasoned outdoorsman,

he's also an environmental
biologist.

And apparently, cowboy.

Exactly.

He is quite the draw
for outdoor enthusiasts.

Shall we get going?

Mm-hmm.

Your base camp
is just down here.

Okay.

Welcome to Oak.

This is a tent?

Well, it's not
your typical tent.

For instance,
there's electricity, Wi-Fi,

and as you can see,
there's an en-suite bath.

This bathtub,
are you kidding me?

It tends to get
a little chilly at night,

so when we come
for the turndown,

we'll also light
the wood-burning stove,

and on clear nights,

please feel free to use
our luxury telescope

for stargazing.

I just want to hug you
right now.

You didn't happen to pack
trail runners, did you,

or is that something
we can help you with?

Do you mean like hiking boots?

Out of curiosity,
what size might you be?

Uh... seven?

Wonderful.

Well, please feel free
to get settled,

and we'll handle the rest.

Okay.

Wow...

Now, this I can do.

Ridiculously beautiful,
isn't it?

It's like something
out of a storybook.

Totally.

I'm Penny.

Nice to meet you.

I'm your neighbor.
That's my tent.

Oh, cool.
I'm Katie.

Did you just get here, too?

Yesterday,

and let me tell you,
this place is amazing.

I got some great pictures
of eagles today.

Are you a photographer?

I dabble,

and I have
134 Instagram followers,

so watch out.

Are you here by yourself?

Yeah.

Me too!

So what brings you here?

Work.

A working vacation?

Well, not work, work...

Just, um...

I'm a writer.

A creative writer?

Oh, I see,

nature as inspiration.

Best cure for writer's block.

Yeah, that.

Oh, did you see the super
handsome wilderness guy,

Will Martin?

I signed up for
his birdwatching tour tomorrow.

You should come.

Oh, birdwatching, huh?

Um, is camouflage required?

Oh, yes, full camo.

We gotta sneak up
on those fearsome swallows.

Oh.

No.

Okay.

Can you tell
I'm from the city?

Well, I am, too,
so I won't hold it against you.

Well, it's really great
meeting you,

but I'm off to a massage.

It's really hard going
around here.

It's so nice to meet you.

You too.

I'll see you around, I'm sure!

Okay. Bye.

How do those feel?

Um... good, I think.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

I should probably just wear
a t-shirt that says "rookie."

Speaking of which,

what do you think I should do
for my first day here?

Keeping in mind

that this is the first time

I've ever heard the term
"trail runner"?

Right.

Uh, well,
there's a great easy trail

down by the lake.

Ah... yeah, I can walk.

I'm good at walking.

- Excellent.
- Yeah.

Go to the end of the pathway,

and look for the sign
that says "Rainbow Trail,"

then follow the trail markers,
and you're on your way.

Trail markers.

Okay, got it.

Excellent, and remember,

you can call me
for tent service at any time.

Tent service?

Is this place for real?

Sure is.

Enjoy.

Aw, so cute!

Huh?

Bear, bear, bear!

Bear...

- Whoa.

Whoa, whoa.
You okay?

There's a bear back there.

I gotcha.
You're fine.

He's right back there.

He won't hurt you.

He's really big.

Don't worry.

Are you sure?

That's Chester.

Chester?

He's practically
our welcoming committee.

What?

Yeah, he's lived here
his whole life.

He's pretty old.

Totally harmless.

Although...

What?

You know you should never run
when you see a bear.

I know, I know,

you're supposed to lie down
and play dead,

but my instincts told me to run,

and I wasn't exactly
expecting to run into a bear

on my very first hike.

Hey, I'd call that lucky.

Oh.

Yay.

I'm Will, by the way.

You were
on the horse trail earlier?

Yeah, that was me.
Also terrified.

I'm Katie.

Well, nice to meet you, Katie.

I was actually out here
looking for you.

Really?

Yeah, Chase gave me a heads-up.

Thought you might like a guide.

Hmm. Right, huh...

"This is Chase,

"we got a rookie
on the Rainbow Trail.

Please send reinforcements."

Happy to help.

Now, if you're willing,

why don't you follow me?

I know all the good spots.

Without bears.

Oh, yes, please.

So I heard you went
a 1,000-mile trek across Alaska.

I did.
How'd you know about that?

I read about you.

Trail magazine?

- Yeah.
- Really?

You subscribe to it, or?

Uh, no, I read it
at the dentist.

Ah...

Well, I didn't really like
that article.

Why not?

When I agreed to it,

the journalist assured me

that it would be about
my conservation work,

which is why I was doing
the hike in the first place,

but in the end,

he was more interested in
plugging the gear I was using,

and let's just say

it's taught me to be wary
of journalists,

and to make sure that in future,

I keep myself out of the story.

Huh.

So, what brings you here?

Oh, uh, I'm here
to widen my horizons.

I'm not exactly
an outdoorsy type person,

unless you count
sitting on sidewalk patios.

Well, they do call
the city a jungle.

That is true.

Okay, so be honest,

how worried do I need to be

about strange animals
wandering into my tent?

Will, I was looking for you!

Hi, Katie!

Hey, Olivia--

Nice to see you again.

So, how are you
getting settled in?

Is Will taking good care of you?

Yes, I just went
on my very first hike,

and I give it five stars.

Well, you are lucky
to get him all to yourself.

Usually, he's leading
group hikes.

Well, I had a little run-in
with Chester.

Ah, and Will saved the day.

Sounds like him.

Did you take her
to our favorite hike?

We just did the Rainbow Trail.

Oh, yeah,
we love that one, too.

- Mm-hmm.
- Actually,

there isn't a trail here
that will disappoint.

No.

Will, when you get Katie
to her tent,

I could use your help
creating an itinerary

for one of our VIP guests--

Guys, I can totally
handle it from here.

Yeah, totally,

and I think I have
an appointment

with a clawfoot bath tub.

So nice to see you,

and that was so fun,
thank you.

Good work, rookie.

Thank you.

- Bye!
- Bye.

Tonight
we have local trout,

wheat-berry salad,

as well as cherry crumble
picked from our very own trees.

Did you make this?

I didn't,

but I did help plan the menu.

Okay, 'cause Olivia told me
about your culinary genius.

Well, she's the one

who lets me to flex
my creativity in the kitchen.

She is wonderfully
supportive that way.

Well, this looks incredible,

and I, for some reason,
am starving.

That's the fresh mountain air.

Enjoy.

Thank you.

You be my lookout, okay?

Good evening!

Hi!

How was your dinner?

Ah, I couldn't resist,
I called for tent service.

Who knew that was even a thing?

I did that, too,
my first night.

How about you, did you get
some good photos today?

Um, not too bad, actually.

I think I got some decent ones
of the sunset over the lake.

Can I see?

Oh, I wouldn't want
to bore you with it.

No, I want to see them.

I'd love to.

All right, well...

this one's not too shabby.

Beautiful.

That's incredible.

Wow.

I could really use these.

Use them?
For what?

No.... Uh, no, no,
I meant muse.

Muse, like, uh...

Like a muse.
Like a creative...

Spit it out.

What are you trying not to say?

Okay, um...

I'm actually here
on a writing assignment

for a magazine.

Oh, fancy!

I know, right?

And it's my first job,

and I don't want to blow it,

and it has to be kept a secret.

I am a very good secret-keeper.

Okay, good,

but I actually really think
that your photos

would help
make my article shine.

Really?

Yeah, I'd love to send them
to my editor?

I mean,
you'd get credit, of course,

and paid, obviously.

Yes, please, I would like that
very much, thank you.

Wow, I'm terrible
at being undercover.

I've been here for one day,
and I've spilled the beans.

Well, thank you
for the opportunity.

Thank you.

Oh, and...

Thank you.

Great.

- Good night!
- Good night.

Hello?

Thank you.

Wow.

Oh, hi.

Good morning.

I see you've found
my sunrise spot.

Yeah, I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to interrupt.
I'll--

Join me.

It's the best way
to start the day.

Okay.

Thank you.

Wow.

It is stunning out here.

Try to just take it all in...

up here.

Okay.

I bet you don't even own
a cell phone.

Oh, no, I do.

Really?

I can't really see you

taking selfies
on mountain tops, though.

Well, I definitely skip
the social media stuff,

but I do have
the constellations app.

Nerdy, huh?

Kinda.

So, what do you recommend
I do for my second day?

I was thinking
I should ease into it.

Like, I could maybe
go for a kayak,

or I could really get into
reading a book by the lake--

First...

let's just watch this sunrise.

Take a breath.

Then we'll plan.

I can do that.

How long do we--

Shh...

Yeah. Right.

Hmm...

Wow.

Sorry.

It's okay.

It does take your breath away.

Every time.

Now, for a plan,

how about a horseback ride?

Oh, no.

Uh, definitely not.

I like to keep my feet
firmly planted on the ground.

When was the last time

you did something
for the first time?

Uh...

Last week, I tried
the spicy tuna roll

instead of
the regular tuna roll, so...

...but I did go riding once.

I begged my parents to send me
to horseback-riding camp,

and then I...

After getting
thrown off the horse,

the experience really wasn't
worth the debate, so.

What's that saying?

Oh, yeah, "get right back
into the saddle?"

Maybe not today.

Fair enough.

I heard that there was
a birdwatching tour?

That sounds like really good
second-day material.

Unless, of course,

you have to scale,
like, a rock face

to get a rare peek
at the species?

No, not a rock face,
just a 100-foot tree.

You're kidding.

I am.

It'll be fun and tame.

Okay.

I'm sorry you're stuck
with a rookie like me.

I like rookies.

Really?

"There's nothing
more beautiful in the world

than a heart that's changing."

That's beautiful.

Is that yours?

I wish.

I'm not that eloquent
with words.

That was what my first
camp counselor used to tell us.

He was Navajo,

and taught me things

I couldn't learn
just from books.

Hmm.

So what about a rookie like me,
it doesn't get old?

Not at all.

Guests who are jaded,
who've done it all,

they're way less fun.

I love helping people
try new things.

Even people
with two left feet?

How amazing did you feel

after you finished
that hike yesterday?

Incredible.

See?

Best job ever.

Cool.

Now, I'm guessing

you folks enjoy
going for a hike,

sitting by a lake...

or a patio.

Now try to imagine
any of those activities

without birdsong.

It's pretty hard, isn't it?

Because bird songs are like
nature's radio station,

and hopefully
by the end of this tour,

you'll be able to name
some of its top-ten hits.

It's usually easier
to hear birds

before you see them...

...and I recommend looking
with your bare eyes first,

rather than your binoculars.

Hear that?

Yeah.

Keep listening.

Where's the song coming from?

There!

It's beautiful.

Yeah, what is it?

What does it look like?

Um...

Uh, like a sparrow with a...
like, a yellow top?

Check your books.

Oh, here it is.

Um, it's a Golden-crowned
Sparrow, right?

You got it.

Now make a note in your book,

and please,
be as descriptive as you like.

All right, follow me.

You see that one up there?

Is it this one?

No, it's that one.

Oh, gosh.

Oh... kay.

Wow.

Sunrise Peaks is known
for its eagle population,

so it's no coincidence
we stopped here for lunch,

because this is the best place
in the resort to spot them.

So enjoy your lunch,
and keep your eyes up.

Amazing.

Wow, that looks so good.

Yup.

Can I see what you got?

Yeah.

I love that one.

You got so close, my goodness.

Hey, I think he looks lonely,
don't you?

I'm gonna guess
he likes to be alone.

I mean, he did all those hikes
and climbs by himself,

and a thousand miles
is a long time

to be on your own, so...

I think he's just taking
a well deserved break from us.

- Really?
- Yeah.

If you say so.

Hmm, you know what,

I think I'm just gonna
go down there

and see if I can spot
some eagles.

See you later.

Okay.

Looking for eagles?

I usually see them
over those trees,

a male and a female.

Their nest is just past
that tree line.

That's where they raise
their eaglets.

Eaglets?

Is that really the name
for baby eagles?

You've never
heard that before?

No. That's too adorable.

There they are.

They're amazing.

They truly are.

They use the same nest
every year,

and since they mate for life,

it just keeps getting
bigger and bigger.

It's like a testament

to their commitment
for each other

It's like the eagle equivalent

of those yearly
anniversary gifts?

My mom's really into those.

Like, um, paper for year one,
cotton...

Except with eagles, it's...

wood, every year.

E brings her a very romantic
anniversary twig each year.

But together, they build
something incredible.

They do.

We should get back
to the group.

Yeah, sure,

Thank you
for your keen eyes today.

All of these log books

will definitely help us
with our conservation.

And don't worry,

I didn't write anything
about what we saw out there,

just soaked it all up in here.

Excuse me, Katie.

Will, can I talk to you
for a second?

It's important.

Yeah.

Uh, excuse me, Katie,

Yeah. Sure.

So I've just spoken
to a potential investor.

They love my expansion proposal,

and they want to come
survey the land.

Isn't that great?

Did you tell them

about the areas we discussed
as off limits?

Of course,

and I forwarded them
your conservation notes.

Will, this could be it,

after three years of planning,

and looking for money
to expand this place,

it could actually be happening.

I should go.

There's a tour starting shortly,

but I'll see you later?

Okay.

"A handsome
and regal-looking bird,

the Golden-crowned Sparrow
is remarkably shy,

but if you listen
for its song,

you may catch a glimpse
of the shining crown

that makes it
the king of the sparrows."

How about this one?

I think that sun flare
really adds some drama.

I love it!

Good job.

Yup, I'm gonna send
that one to Sabrina.

Well, don't send her this one,

or she'll know exactly
what's going on.

Why? What?

Oh, you know.

I know what?

What's going on.

With you and Will?

Nothing's going on.

Really? 'Cause I saw Mr. Loner
head off after you today.

Well, yeah...

Yeah, he was doing his job.

You know, he's making sure

I'm getting the most
out of the tour,

and I, my friend,
am here doing my job.

So...

You know, and also,

I think there's something
between him and Olivia.

Really?

Yeah.

It's all "we" this
and "we" that,

and it makes sense.

They have so much in common.

Sure, but I find
opposites usually attract.

Penny, he's making sure
I get the most out of it,

and that I don't fall
off a cliff.

Right.

And... yeah,
so he's amazing, but...

He's doing his job?

Yeah, that's the one.
He's doing his job, so...

Show me some more pictures,
will you?

Okay...

Sabrina,
thank you again, so much,

I still can't believe I'm here.

I mean, the deer, the eagles,

the stargazing...

Love the updates, Katie,

and all the photos, too,

but I want to hear more
about this wilderness guide.

Okay...

His face alone
will sell copies.

Sure...

Sure, um,

what about the whole

"fish out of water"
angle, though?

You know, city girl
in the wilderness?

Alone with her hunky
mountain man?

You know what, he's actually
so much more than that.

He's a conservationist,

biologist, um...

That's good.

In fact, I want you to find out
all you can about him.

Sure.

You got it.

- You're a leftie?
- Yeah.

Okay.

Swing your arm back.

And...

flick your wrist.

Gently back,

and...

yeah!

Yeah!

So, what brought you here?

I mean,
from what I read about you,

you seem like
more of a journeyman.

You know, like somebody
that doesn't stay in one place

very long?

Journeyman, wow,
that one's new.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean--

That's okay.

It's actually a pretty
fitting description.

I guess, this place offered me
the best of both worlds.

Here, I get to meet people,
like yourself,

and educate guests on
the importance of conservation,

or more importantly,

help you love nature
so that you want to conserve it,

and then, in the off season,

I still get to go and...
be a journeyman.

What about you?

What do you do

when you're not expanding
your horizons?

I spend a lot of time
in front of a computer.

Programming?

Uh, no, writing.

Like, short, little
20-word blurbs, we call them.

It's nothing special.

It's a form of advertising.

I'm not surprised
you're a writer.

I read the descriptions
you wrote of the birds.

I could really see them.

Well, I love it,

and I'd really love
the opportunity

to write more
than just 20 words.

Did you grow up in all this?

Doing all this outdoorsy stuff?

Believe it or not,
I was a city kid.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

I figured

you were born on the frontier,

with your mama making grits
on a cast-iron pan.

Wow, you really are
a storyteller...

...but, no.

The only thing my parents knew
about camping

was that it rhymed with bears.

That doesn't rhyme.

Exactly.
They didn't have a clue.

Got it.

But one year,
I went to summer camp,

and everything changed.

- How old were you?
- 11.

So it was a few years before
I was able to say goodbye

to the big city.

Eventually
I became a camp counselor,

spent some time studying birds
in different regions,

plus a few years on a ranch,

my cowboy phase.

Of course, of course.

I had more of a "watch
every episode of Friends" phase.

My dad was a professor,

and my mom was
a corporate lawyer,

so our weekends
were books and fundraisers,

and other than my short stint
as a cowgirl

on that horseback-riding camp,

I must admit

that this is my second time
in the wilderness.

How do you like it so far?

I think...

it's pretty awesome.

Wow.

So, you caught this fish?

I did.

Everything turn out okay?

Wait, you cooked this?

Didn't I tell you
I was also the chef?

What?

I'm kidding.

That's a hat Chase wears
very well.

Enjoy.

Oh, Will, um...

join us, please.

I would love to get
some more pointers

on how to catch one of these.

Okay.

Or pointers on any
of the other hundred things

you seem to do so well.

A hundred?

That may be an exaggeration.

99 maybe.

Hardly.

Put me in front of a computer,

and tell me how clever
I seem then, huh?

You did almost wipe out
the guest database.

See?

It's okay, though,
we'll let it slide.

There is one thing
I would like him to do.

I can't imagine
he would disappoint.

What is it?

Ice skating.

Really?

Well, I could help
in that department.

Figure skating and ballet
were prerequisites in my world.

Well, believe me,

I am still trying
to change his mind.

I'm on the rink
all winter long.

I'm more of a skiing
kind of guy.

One of these days,
we're gonna get you on the ice.

Good luck with that.

Now, if you'll
excuse me, ladies,

I have a group scheduled.

So are all the guides
as good as he is?

Well, he's by far the best,

but the good news

is we're going to have him
full-time now,

instead of just for the summers.

Oh?

Yeah, we just had
plans and funding approved

to expand and build
a hotel on the grounds,

and he's going to come in
and help with the project.

You know, advising
on the environmental impact.

Like, an actual hotel?

- Mm-hmm.
- Wow.

It is a big deal,
we're very excited.

Will is, too?

He has strong opinions,

but he's going to make sure
that we do it the right way.

Well, no doubt.

Must be hard being apart
during the off-season.

Winters are long.

Well, if you would
excuse me, ladies.

There's some fresh
blueberry pie.

Would you like a slice?

I am full, thank you.

Me, too.

Okay, enjoy.

Subtle.

It was.
She had no clue.

Well... now we have a clue.

That they're together?

No, my friend,
that was vague at best.

Doesn't matter
if Will's into it or not.

Clearly, Olivia is,

and I'm not gonna
step in on that.

That's...

It doesn't matter
if it's official or not.

Katie...

I love the photos.

Do you think this Will
would do a cover?

Um...

I highly doubt it.

Hmm, well, work on him.

Oh, in the meantime,
I want you to get personal.

Find out if our mountain man
has a love interest.

Yeah... yeah, that's...
that's one idea.

And a good one!

So go with it.

Our readers will love it,

and I can't wait to read it.

We'll talk soon.

Sure.

Bye.

Good morning, Miss Ryan.

Good morning, Chase.

A little sore
from yesterday's casting?

Oh... yeah,
I guess that's it.

Uh-huh.

If it interests you,

there's a stretch yoga class
that begins in 30 minutes.

It'll do wonders.

Yoga, huh?

Um... is it for beginners?

'Cause I've only done it
a few times,

I assure you,
anybody can take part.

Huh, okay, well, thank you.

All right, everyone,

make sure your toes
are spread on the ground.

Let's start
some sun salutations here.

And raising your arms
right up to the sky.

Reaching over for Crescent Moon.

Oh!

Make sure you're reaching
out and up.

There you go.

And down...

Pedal it out of you need to.

And up again,
reaching up to the sky.

And back down to heart center.

You picked
the perfect day

to connect with nature,

especially this time of year.

Our hike just might show you

some of the best scenery
in this part of the country.

Make sure
your toes are spread on the mat

so that you keep your balance.

And up we go, one more,
raising to the sky.

Back down into heart center.

And that's it, everyone.

Yeah! Namaste!

I brought you a treat.

Thank you.

My boss wants the article
to be about Will now.

You know,
the hunky mountain man,

whatever name conjures up
an image of a heartthrob,

and Will has made it very clear

that he distrusts journalists
for that very reason.

You know, he doesn't want

an article to be about
what he's wearing,

or who he's dating.

He wants it to matter,

but my boss just wants
eye and word candy,

and I just don't want
Will to find out, 'cause...

I don't want him to think
I'm shallow.

You're not.

You're trying to get ahead
in your career.

There's no shame in that.

Yeah, tell Will that.

Tell me what?

Just how excited Katie is

to find out
what you have planned today.

On that note,
I'm off to the sauna. Bye.

Bye.

No sunrise coffee today?

Um, no... no, I...

I wanted to try the yoga.

Hmm...

Which, you saw, I nailed.

You did all right.

So I heard some happy news.

Olivia mentioned that
you're gonna stay on full-time?

Well, she's being optimistic.

I haven't actually
accepted the job.

Oh. Why not?

I mean,
it's a great opportunity,

a stable, long-term gig,

and I do love Sunrise Peaks.

But?

That's just it.

I love Sunrise Peaks as it is.

You know, wild.

Undeveloped,

with tents tucked away
in the forest...

Yeah.

...and a part of me feels
that if I get involved,

I can make sure
that it's developed properly,

that the land's respected,

but then
there's another part of me

that thinks I can't possibly
support this change.

Well, are they gonna
remove the tents?

No.

It'll just be a small hotel,

but... different.

Right.

Well, Olivia seemed
really happy about it all,

and having you here, and...

Yeah, it would mean
a lot to her.

And... to you?

To be honest,

I have a hike lined up
for later in the year.

A hike?

The Appalachian Trail.

What?

Mm-hmm.

And I guess Olivia
can't come with you

because of the hotel, or?

That was never a possibility.

She has a business to run.

Right, so you would have
to give up the hike

to take the job?

Yeah,

and I've already got
sponsors lined up,

so it would be a lot
to walk away from.

Whew, that is a hard decision.

It is.

You know, you might not
believe this,

but my favorite book growing up

was about this brother
and sister

who lived in a magical cabin
in the Appalachians--

And their dad took them hiking.

And taught them
to never get lost

by looking at the stars?

Yeah, and they had a dog.

Yeah, I loved that book!

Me too.

It was one of my favorite
adventure stories.

What?

What was the dog's name?

Oh, um...

- Daisy?
- Yeah!

Weird.

Well, speaking of adventures,

how do you feel about
taking it up a notch?

What are you thinking?

I was thinking...
maybe canoeing?

Into it?

Um...

Am I gonna fall in the lake?

No.

I got you.

I... don't know about that.

We'll probably see some otters.

Maybe even some pups.

Baby otters?

Mm-hmm.

You knew I'd go for the otters.

I had a feeling.

Yeah, well, you were right.

- Okay.
- Okay.

So, tell me about this hike.

How long is it going to take?

About five months.

What an adventure.

It's a far cry from glamping.

I know.

Just thinking about it
gives me goosebumps.

If only I could be that brave.

So tell me
about your writing.

There's really
isn't much more to tell.

Where do you get
your inspirations from?

What are you passionate
about writing?

Well, I guess
when I was younger,

I wanted to be
a storybook writer,

and then I got my degree
in English,

and got this job
writing blurbs, and...

honestly, since then,
all I've ever thought about

was getting to write
more than 20 words,

so...

I guess I should give that
some more thought, huh?

Can you describe this to me?

This moment?

Out here?

And it can be
more than 20 words.

Let's see.

Mountains made up of...

all the shades of the seasons,

surround a lake so pristine

that it acts as a mirror

reflecting the mountain's
beautiful face.

That was beautiful.

You try.

All right.

I'll give it a try.

On a day like this,

normally, I would be itching
to hit the trails,

cut a solitary wake
through the lake--

that one rhymes--

Nice.

But in this moment,
I'm grateful.

Grateful to be able to share
all this beauty

with someone special.

Look, otters.

Five months, huh?

I am not be that brave.

Maybe one day.

Okay, so this is
the best kind of tired, huh?

Yup, "a full, fun day"
kind of tired.

You should take a break,
and I'll see you tonight.

There's a great event planned
for the meteor shower.

Meteor shower?

It happens every summer.

The whole camp cooks together,

we eat, we dance,

and then we settle in
for some serious stargazing.

Back up. You dance?

What?
Why so surprised?

Oh, nothing, I just...

I figured a guy who spends
so much time on his own

hiking and climbing...

And what do you think I do

when I reach the end
of one of those hikes

or the top of the mountain?

I dance, of course.

Really?

Mm...

No, you don't...

Oh, god, why do I keep
falling for you?

--It.

Falling for it, I meant.

- I know.
- Okay.

- I'll see you at 7:00.
- Okay, yeah.

That's right,

we don't ever want
to cut into the meat

until it's been cooked
and well rested,

and at this point,

we want to gently pat in
all of the seasonings,

kind of like
you're giving it a massage.

Really go for it
with the salt and the pepper.

Excellent, he's a pro...

and that, ladies and gentlemen,

is the extent
of our secret spices,

because salt and pepper is
all a good steak really needs.

Thank you.

Thomas, have you up here.

Excellent.

Now, this time,
I want to demonstrate

how we get it all the way
to the edges...

Wow.

He's incredible, isn't he?

I told you,

we are very lucky
to have him on our team.

Yeah, no,
he's absolutely incredible.

Now let's flip 'em,
we'll get the other side,

and once that's done,
we'll throw 'em on the grill,

and that'll be tonight's dinner.

You know that was about
a 12-ounce steak.

Yeah, and I have zero guilt,

because I canoed
an entire lake and back today.

Wish I could say the same,

but I only sweat off my pounds
in the sauna today.

Oh, my gosh, look.

Pure perfection.

Huh?

I don't believe it.
You said you don't dance.

I never said that.

What about you?

Got any moves, city girl?

Do I have moves?

Hmm?

I got moves.

♪ Yeah, it's true ♪

♪ Oh, it's true ♪

♪ Yeah, I do ♪

♪ Girl, it's no use ♪

♪ What really hurts
is I'd say the words ♪

♪ You always wanted me to ♪

♪ Yeah, I do... ♪
Olivia?

Yes, Chase?

I noticed you didn't have
any dinner, so here.

Thank you,
that was so thoughtful.

You take such good care
of everybody else here,

it's only fair that somebody
looks after you.

Perhaps after you're done,
we could have a dance?

You know what,

I think I'm going
to skip dancing tonight.

Another time, though, Chase.

Thank you.

Of course.

Enjoy.

♪ Yeah, I do ♪

♪ I do think about you... ♪

Wow.

Remind me never to take you up
on a dance competition.

Oh, come on, like you would
ever give up on a challenge?

You're right, I wouldn't,

but maybe I could cheat,
and you could be my partner.

♪ ...Is I'd say the words
you always wanted me to... ♪

You know what, I think I, um,

I'm just going to go
get a drink.

I can't believe
I'm gonna say this,

but I think
I've run out of wishes.

What?

There's so many shooting stars,

I can't think of enough things
to wish for.

You can't ever
run out of wishes.

Here comes yours.

What?

Pretty amazing,
isn't it?

Yeah.

I've never seen
anything like it.

Hot chocolate?

Yes, please.

Penny?

Actually, I'm going to go
talk to Chase,

and see what cuts of steak
he recommends,

but thank you.

Bye.

See ya.

You want to sit?

It's so easy
to forget about stars

when you live in the city.

I think I can see, like,
three from my apartment.

Oh, is this
one of those moments,

that's best spent in silence?

It can be...

but when I was at camp,

my counselor, Atsa,

whose name meant "eagle,"

he would tell us star stories.

Tell me.

Well, I'm not as great
at telling stories

as you or Atsa.

I mean,

he had a way to make
his stories really resonate

and stick with you.

Don't worry.

I think, um...

I think I'll remember this.

Well, my favorite story

was the one about Nanook.

It's an Inuit legend.

He was a bear.

A great big white polar bear,

and one day,

he was out on the ice,
searching for food,

when a bunch of dogs
started chasing him,

and he ran as fast as he could,

but they kept chasing him,

and he ran, and ran, and ran,

and he ran so far,

he didn't realize he had reached
the edge of the world,

and he slid right off

into the night sky...

and there he is.

He became a star.

That's right.

See?

There's his tail,

and his legs.

Oh, yeah.

I think I can see him.

They understood that we just
share all of this,

this whole universe.

When you're out
on your long hikes, um...

does it ever feel like
you're at the edge of the world?

Like, does it not get lonely?

It does.

So does that mean

that you have or want somebody
to share it with?

Like a Jane to your Tarzan?

Sure.

Really?

I always figured you were fine
being a lone wolf.

Let me put it this way.

I'd rather be a lone wolf

than share it
with the wrong person.

Because you're right,

sometimes, it does feel like
you're at the end of the Earth,

and when you're
in a place like that,

you want to make sure
you're there with someone

you'd be happy
to step off the edge with.

Those are pretty powerful words.

I had a good teacher.

So this Appalachian hike,

are you gonna alone on that?

That was the plan,

but things change.

Oh? Like this hotel deal or?

That, and other things.

'Cause the universe
is funny like that.

You never know
what it's going to bring you.

Who's bringing what?

Um...

Oh, we're just, uh...

we're just talking about
Will's long hikes,

and whether he likes to go solo
or with someone.

Oh, he goes alone.

Well, that's
not necessarily true.

Well, it doesn't
matter anyway,

since you canceled
that Appalachian Trail one.

Well, that's...
not actually true.

What?

You didn't cancel it?

No, I told you
I was still deciding.

You know what, guys,
I think I'm just gonna go, um...

I'm gonna... see if they have
more hot chocolate.

Still deciding?

What's there to decide on?

It's a great opportunity.

It's more than that,
and you know it.

Look, I know you have
reservations

about the idea of the hotel,

but we can make it work,

all of it.

The water, the wildlife...

everything.

Because certainly you wouldn't
choose the hike, would you?

Go out into the woods
again, alone?

Over the...

job?

I'm sorry, Olivia,

I honestly don't know.

"Will is a man
looking for someone

to step off the edge
of the world with."

Oh, boy.

Sounds like
an online dating profile.

"All right, Sabrina,

you wanted a story
about me really going for it,

and that's
what you're gonna get."

You're here early.

Okay, um, I can't believe
I'm going to say this,

but... if you're not busy,

would you spot me
on the ropes course?

Yes.
Yes, I would.

Great.

I think.

All right,
how you feeling?

Um... jelly legs,
is that a feeling?

I got you.

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

Plus, you're safe.

The belay system
will catch you if you fall.

"Belay."

That's a word I've never heard
or said before.

What does it mean?

It means...

that carabiner
can hold 40,000 pounds.

So you'll be fine.

40,000 pounds?

In that case, I think

I'd better head
back to the pastry bar.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Let's do this.

- All right.
- Okay.

Let's do it.

Okay.

Okay...

You're all right.

Ay-yi-yi,
this is really high.

This is high, right?

Not that high.

So, uh...

so, what do I do?

What does it look like
you should do?

I should proceed
with caution...

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

...and step to that one...

You got it, Katie.

- Okay, I'm ready.
- You are.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Okay, ooh... oh, okay.

Wow.

Nice work.

Good job.

Nice and easy...

Next one.

How am I doing?

Really good.

Yup.

Oh! How did I do?

Perfect!

I made it.

Hold on.

How did that feel?

Um... I think I did it.

Yes, you did.

Yeah.

Ready for the next one?

Yes.

- Yes.
- Okay.

I'm right behind you.

Okay.

I think I'm getting
the hang of this.

Yes, you are.

So is this
the end of the course?

There's just one more bit,

but if you ask me,
it's the best part.

Okay.

I can't do this.
This is too much.

I'm not ready for this.

It's just, it's scary.
I don't wanna do this.

You're cabled in.

Just hold on with two hands.

Lean back,

and enjoy the ride.

You've got this, Katie.

Okay.

That was amazing!

How do you feel?

Incredible.

Like...

Like you could do anything?

Yes.

Well, there you go.

I can't believe
I just did that.

Thank you.

You don't need to thank me.

You did this all on your own.

So, I guess we'll have to stop
calling you Rookie now, huh?

Well, I mean, not if I want
to keep trying new things.

Well, do you have any other
requests for this afternoon?

Rappelling?

Horseback riding maybe?

Okay, I don't want to try
everything today, okay?

I feel pretty buzzed
on adrenaline already, so...

Well, there is one thing
you have to try later.

Okay.

But it's more of a sugar rush,

and it does require
some skill.

But the payoff's worth it.

You in?

I mean, how could I say no?

Perfect.
See you then.

Yeah.

Bye.

Hi, you've reached
Sabrina Cowan,

leave me a message,

and I'll return your call
as soon as possible.

Sabrina, hey, it's Katie.

Um, look, I really think
we should shift the article

back to my original pitch

because I'm really going for it,

just like you wanted,

so I just think we should drop
the whole Will angle,

and I'm going to keep
pushing myself,

and it's gonna be great,

so just give it a read
when I'm done,

and let me know, okay?

Um... gotta go.

Bye.

Amazing, aren't they?

I've never seen
this many fireflies.

They're like our own
little patio lanterns out here.

Yeah.

So, are you ready
for your next challenge?

So you seemed like you were
on quite the mission today.

Oh...

Yeah, you could say that.

I mean, I had to bolster
all my courage to do it,

but I was motivated.

It's amazing
what you can accomplish

when you put your mind to it.

- Like your Appalachian hike?
- Exactly.

Because when the going
gets tough,

it has to come from in here.

Hmm.

I guess you could say that
about a lot of things.

Like my writing, for example.

I was so focused
on the word count,

I never thought about
why I was writing.

I just wanted the job.

It's led me down a path
that I never wanted it to go.

I'm working on it.

That's great.

Yeah, I just hope
I can fix it.

Okay.

Are you ready for this?

Mm-hmm.

Ta-dah!

What do you think?

It's really good.

Here, you should try it.

All right.

It's really good.

You know, this week's
been amazing.

I mean, every week here
is pretty great,

but this week...

I'm going to remember it...

Me too.

...and seeing as tomorrow
is your last day,

I think we should do
something special.

I agree.

Um, I actually want
to try something.

I want to get back
in the saddle.

Really?

Don't worry,

I'll make sure you're safe.

Thank you.

- Hey!
- Penny, hi.

Don't mind me,
just walking back to my tent.

No, no, no, come sit down.

You've got to try
some of these s'mores.

You actually do,

and you can have my spot

because I have a ride
to plan for tomorrow.

Good night, Katie.

Good night, Will.

Good night, Penny.

Sweet dreams.

Sorry for interrupting.

Oh, no, no, no, you didn't
interrupt anything.

I mean, he did say he was
gonna remember this week.

Which means he's gonna miss you
when you're gone.

So he'll miss me,
he'll get over it.

You know, he's got all this,

he's got his hike,

and Olivia's here...

Which means nothing
because he wants you.

Penny, he lives in the woods.

I live in a one-bedroom
in a concrete jungle.

I've seen worse odds.

Have you?

Because feelings aside,

there is still the issue
of my article,

which I am trying to redirect

back to what
it was supposed to be,

but if my boss
doesn't go for it,

and publishes it,

and it's all about Will,

then that's it.

It won't matter

if I live in a treehouse
above his tent.

He's not gonna want to have
anything to do with me.

So then tell him.

Tell him the truth
about why you're here,

and how things have changed.

Oh, I don't know.

I don't know
that he'd understand.

Well, he's going to learn
the truth at some point,

regardless of which article
your boss publishes.

So don't you want to be
the one to tell him?

The thought of telling him...

it's way scarier
than anything I've had to do.

That, my friend, is love.

Katie, I'm sorry, I picked up
your message late last night.

That's fine,
don't worry about it.

I'm actually on my way out
to go horseback riding.

I'm conquering
my biggest fear.

Doesn't that make
for a great story?

Ooh...

are you going
with our hunky guide?

I...

I am, yeah, yeah,

but that's not
really the point.

The point is that this city girl
is crushing it.

Well, actually,

Will is the point
of the story now,

and I need you to get
a picture of him on that horse,

and try to find out more
about what makes him tick.

Okay, um...

Look, here's the deal,

Will likes to keep
a low profile.

Well, you're a journalist,

or you want to be, right?

Yup. Yeah, I do.

Great.

Get some answers.

Oh, I gotta run.

Make your last day count.

So the article
in the Trail Magazine,

I know that it wasn't ideal,

but wasn't it at least
good exposure?

It would have been

if it wasn't about me,

and more about all the work
that needs to be done

to protect this place.

There they are.

Hi, um...
Okay, you know what,

I don't think I really
need to do this--

Come on, I promise,
they don't bite.

Put your trust in them,
and they'll trust you.

Plus, if you give 'em a carrot,
they'll be your bestie forever.

Okay.

Okay? Okay...

Ooh, so soft.

Like...

kind of like velvet.

Yeah, they're beauties.

Calmest horses there are.

You ready to get back
in the saddle?

Yeah, I guess so.

You'll be fine.

Remember,
put your trust in them.

I trust you.

Yeah.

How do you feel?

Good?

No, you know what,
actually great.

Look at me, I'm doing this!

Yes, you are, Katie.

We'll go on foot from here.

Okay,
where are you taking me?

You'll see.

Here we are.

Where are we?
Are we still on Peaks land?

We are,
just on the very outskirts.

Not too many people know
about this part of the property

because, thankfully,
it's undeveloped.

Virtually untouched.

As it should be.

It's so beautiful.

Welcome
to Lavender Grove.

And none of the other guests
know it's here?

No, Olivia's been very diligent
about keeping it a secret,

because she and I both know

that the most beautiful land

is also
the most vulnerable land.

Hmm.

Yeah.

Ah, that scent...

gives me a vision
of a warm blossom,

nestled within
the deep, earthy forest,

where a breeze blows

its wild floral notes
on the leaves,

and then it's gone.

Wow.

Your turn.

Yeah.

Old cowboy legend has it

that when a cowboy
would head out

for a long cattle drive,

he'd leave lavender behind
for his girl.

It meant, "You have my heart,"

and the lavender was
the only flower

that could last
until he came back.

Will, um...

Will, I have to
tell you something.

Um...

Wait.

What?

What are you looking at?

It can't be.

What is that?

It's a marker.

Usually left when the land's
been surveyed.

But I thought nobody really
knew this place existed.

That's what I thought.

We should get back.

Yeah.

Yes, I-I know it's perfect

and it has the flat ground cover
that we need, but...

Sorry, I'm going
to have to call you back.

Thank you.

Hey, Will,
how's your day going?

Are you making sure Ms. Ryan's
last day is memorable?

I just took her out
to Lavender Grove.

Oh, you did?

That's certainly
a special treat.

Is something going on, Olivia?

Because I saw a surveyor's
marker out there.

I did everything I could, Will,

to even hide that it was there,

but the aerials
of the property gave it away.

To the investors?

I tried everything,

every other option
of where to build the hotel,

but they hold the purse,

and this is what they want.

Why didn't you tell me?

I just found out yesterday,

and I wanted to fix it
before you knew

and find a new investor,

but you and I both know

we may not get
another opportunity,

and I want this place to grow.

Not in this way,

but I don't know
any other way...

and the worst part,

I don't want you to think
that I don't care,

because I do.

I know you do, Olivia.

I understand.

This place is your dream.

So... you do what you have to.

Are you saying
this may not be your dream?

I'm sorry, Olivia.

As much as I love it here...

I don't think it is.

Hey.

Hi.

Can I join you?

Of course.

How are you?

Did you find out
what that marker meant?

I did.

It seems the investors
have decided

that's where they'd like

the expansion
of this place built.

Can't Olivia
talk to them, or...

She's tried,

but her hands are tied,

and unless I stay here,

and help her realize her dream,

together,

I really don't have
a place to say.

Right.

So are going to stay,

and cancel your hike?

No.

Because my heart isn't here.

It's reception.

Oh, sure.

How's it going?

I think he just told me
his heart isn't with Olivia.

Really?

So then did you tell him
about the article?

- Hi.
- Article?

What article?

Uh...

I should leave you two.

Sorry. Bye.

If you need to go
and deal with something,

that's fine.

It was just a question
about Rainbow Trail.

What article
was Penny talking about?

Um...

it's complicated.

Okay, um...

when I told you
I was here to widen my horizons,

that was true,

but it was because

I got the opportunity
from my boss

to write an article.

It was 2,000 words.

It was about this city girl

who gets to go and conquer
all of this,

but I had to be undercover.

I get it.

You couldn't tell anyone

in case it altered
your experience.

Exactly.

Well, I can understand that.

That's good.

Um, but there's more.

When my boss
found out about you,

she wanted to change
the focus of the article.

She got all caught up

in this vision
of a mountain man,

and adventure,

and romance...

Wow.

You did all this
without me knowing.

I didn't know what to do,

and I... I feel terrible,

and I'm so sorry.

This day is like deja vu.

First, Lavender Grove,
and now this.

But I think that I can fix it.

You know, like, if you tell me

what it is that you want
in this article,

then I can...
I can go back to my boss,

and I can ask her to change it.

You know what, it's okay.

Unless there's something else
you'd like to know about me.

Maybe your boss would like
something more on my love life,

because there really isn't
anything to say about that.

Good night, Katie,

and I hope you've enjoyed
your stay with us.

Yeah.

Yeah...

- Hi.
- Hey.

Is everything okay?

Please tell me it is,
or I'll feel terrible.

Penny, it's not
your fault, okay?

I am the one who should have
told him by now.

I just saw a wolf.

A wolf?

Yeah.

I wasn't even scared.

And it made me think

that falling in love

is the scariest thing
that I'll ever encounter,

so, everything else just seems
kind of tame in comparison.

Good morning, Ms. Ryan.

Morning, Chase.

All ready to go?

Yeah.

I guess so.

Hey, have you seen Will today?

I haven't.

I believe he's out
leading a hiking tour.

Was there something
I can help you with?

No, no, no, no.

All right.

Actually, uh...

when you see him,
could you just say goodbye?

Of course.

Thank you.

Oh, there's Olivia.
I just want to say goodbye.

Um... Olivia?

I just wanted to say bye.

Katie, we're so sorry
to see you go.

Thank you.

I had an amazing time,

and I want to make sure

that I give Chase here
a five-star review.

Well, thank you.

Yeah, he's pretty great,
isn't he?

And full of surprises.

Apparently,
he is a champion skater

and spends all winter
on the ice.

Who knew?

Wow.

What about you, do you have
plans to visit us?

I'm sure Will
would really like that.

Oh, um...

I doubt that.

I haven't been
completely truthful

about why I'm here,

um, which you might as well
know as well,

was to write a story
on your resort,

and I promise,

it would have been a glowing
testament to all this,

but my boss made it
all about Will,

so, you know Will...

Yes, I do.

I'm in a bit of hot water
with him myself.

I know. I heard
about Lavender Grove.

I just wish that there was
some way I could save it,

but, apparently,
it doesn't matter what I say,

my words don't make
a difference.

That's it.

What?

I think I may know
a way I can help you.

How would you do that?

With 2,000 words.

Katie!

I need you to send me
all your photos from this week.

The eagles, the lake,

anything that showcases

the natural beauty
of this place.

Of course.
Do you have a plan brewing?

I think so,
but I just hope it works.

'Kay!

It was so nice
getting to know you.

You too, Katie,

and thank you for getting
my photos out there.

Of course.

I'm gonna keep you posted
on the article.

- Good luck.
- I'll write.

What's this?

This is the article you want.

This is what
we should be publishing.

Katie, I already have the copy
you sent about Will.

I know that,
forget about that.

That's fluff.

This has everything.

How much the resort
has to offer,

how I was challenged,

and inspired
to overcome my fears,

how Will is a guide
like no other,

and how the natural beauty
of the landscape

needs to be respected,

and the importance
of conservation,

because without it,

Sunrise Peaks wouldn't be
what it is today.

You got all that
in under 2,000 words?

1,998, to be exact.

This is not what I asked for...

I know.

...but you're right,

it is better.

I'll run it.

Thank you, Sabrina.

I promise you,
it will not disappoint.

Now go type this up.

Yeah.

Will?
You need to see this.

I'm gonna let you read it
on your own.

"Local wildlife
experts agree

that building
further from the water

and leaving places
like Lavender Grove untouched

would be less disruptive
to the eco-system,

leaving Sunrise Peaks

to continue to be
a magical place

where this city girl
learned about the stars,

the water, the birds,

and the joys of a quiet dawn.

As the resort's most
knowledgeable guide taught me,

'There is nothing more
beautiful in the world

as a heart that is changing,'

and there is no doubt

that this place
changed my heart,

as it will yours."

Thank you.

Will...

There's a group
that wants a picnic

down at Lavender Grove.

Think you could take this
to them?

Yeah, for sure.

Thanks.

Katie?

Hi.

Hi.

You got my delivery?

I did. Thank you.

Thank you.

Your article generated
so much interest

that Olivia was able
to save Lavender Grove.

Well, I just...

after everything that happened,

I realized how I want
my words to affect people,

and I want them
to motivate people

to make change.

Or in this case, not.

Either way, I just want them
to make a difference.

And they did.

Katie, I'm sorry.

I wanted to come to you
to apologize.

I never gave you the chance
to make things right,

and I was having
such a hard time

finding the words--

It's okay.

You just did.

Not all of them.

Katie, you have my heart,

you have my--

goes on Appalachian Trail"?

I love it.

You know it's a long trail...

I-I know.

...and it'd just be
you and me.

I know.

Do you think you can handle it?

Oh, I can more than handle it.

It just might take us
a little longer.

Yup.
