Ali goes kayaking after bookkeeping for Frannie. She used to canoe with Pete and the kids but has been enjoying solo boat ventures since Pete left. She feels her worries disappear while out on the water and remembers her youth. Today, she thinks about Ethan, their date, and who he was as a kid. She wonders if they should date and asks Fancy what she thinks. Ali hears Fancy tell her a summer romance could be fun. Her mind wanders to her college romance, and she suddenly feels overcome by everything she wants for herself.
Frannie calls Ali to complain about Harold’s managing and ordering mishaps at the inn. Ali offers to watch Theo so that Frannie can resolve the problem. At the inn, Ali encounters Ethan. He and Ali take Theo and the dogs to the beach. Ethan reveals his frustrations with his parents’ house, which he’s trying to clean up before putting it on the market. Ali offers to help and admits that she'd like to keep seeing Ethan while he’s in town. Frannie comes to collect Theo, interrupting their intimate conversation.
