Paloma spends a restless night, doing what she doesn’t always do best: thinking. Weighing her options. Considering the possibility of acting not out of mood, whim, or rage, but logic and reason. Maybe it’s time to not just react to things she doesn’t like, but to make a plan to overcome them.

When she finally falls asleep, she dreams that she is sitting beside Ethan Lovejoy in the old pick-up, being bounced and shaken back to the airport. They aren’t talking because of the racket of the truck, but she’s so excited there are tears in her eyes. The first thing she’s going to do when she gets home is go to the spa. Then she’s going shopping. Then she’s going to her favourite restaurant and will order that chicken they do with the truffles and kumquats and wild rice. When they get to the airport, Ethan lets her off in front of the departures terminal. “You did real good, Susan,” he tells her. “You have yourself a nice life.” She’s so happy she says that she will. She picks up her bag and practically runs to the entrance. And that’s when she sees herself reflected in the doors and windows. She’s an old lady with grey hair and wrinkled skin, and it isn’t a suitcase on wheels that she’s holding but a walking frame. She turns around to shout at Ethan, to ask him how this could have happened to her, but Ethan Lovejoy is gone.
