Chieftain. The place looks to be closed, Jewel and Theresa drinking at the bar. Jewel complains that they weren't recording their one song tonight. Theresa says that it was the most fun she's had in a while, but says that she can't go on tour with Jewel. Quietly, Jewel tells her that she hopes it isn't about "Mike," because she shouldn't let a guy control her life. Theresa says it's her: "It's time I started singing on my own." They hug, and then Jewel badly acts her way out of the place. Once she's gone, Ben asks how Theresa could give up an opportunity like that. She shrugs, and Ben quietly tells her, "I wish you could see even a little bit of what I see in you. "I do," says Theresa. "Now. It's taken a while. I'm stronger because of you. I just can't be anybody's backup anymore." Ben sort of chuckles: "So...I made you strong enough to leave me." "Yeah," says Theresa. Ben nods, sighing. "But I'm not going very far," promises Theresa, taking Ben's hand...and then heading out to bus tables. It would be hard to give up a gig that glamorous and satisfying.

Closing montage! A post-coital Jane wakes up in bed at the Inn, alone but for a Department Of Public Works baseball cap fallen behind the pillow beside her. Oh my God, Plow Guy evaporated! Just like all his ice sculptures, eventually!

Marin snaps her laptop closed, and looks at her shell, resting on top of her New Yorker. She picks up the shell and holds it to her lip, pondering. The camera cuts away before she puts that aside, picks up the magazine, and flips to a page where she can kiss her own name.

Dock. Jane is walking briskly...somewhere, and runs into Sam, who's proudly waiting with an ice sculpture. It kind of looks like it could be an ice tombstone, but then he explains, "It's a Blackberry!" Hee! He even presses a few ice buttons, complete with sound effects. As Jane stares at it, gobsmacked, Sam says that he's getting DSL so that she can "Blackberry" him from New York. Not sure how that's going to work on a boat, but okay. Jane takes a breath, and then announces, "I should tell you, my doggie day care legally adopted my dog. And I only call my parents on holidays. And I only know they're holidays 'cause Dean & Deluca's closed. Well, I'm a busy lady. So I can't really promise that I can keep in touch." Sam has basically never stopped smiling in the entire time we've known him, and this speech doesn't break his streak, as he simply replies, "Okay." "Okay," says Jane, relaxing enough to smile. She keeps walking, not acknowledging her ice Blackberry, and somehow Sam acts like it's all totally worth it anyway.
