　　Alex为了追回大狗Jack来到Morgan的门前，Alex觉得似乎在哪见过Morgan，那当然是在他找回Kate丢失的书那天。当得知Alex拥有一套湖边小屋时，Morgan希望Alex能为他的女朋友Kate找一套湖边的房屋。

　　Mona追随至这里，互相认识过后，Morgan邀请他们俩来参加Kate的生日晚会，Alex当然求之不得。

Morgan：Yours, I take it?

Alex：Yeah. Yeah, sorry. Thanks. Come here, Jack. What were you thinking, huh, girl? What were you thinking? She's never run off like that.

Morgan：You gotta keep an eye on them. What's his name?

Alex：Her. Jack.

Morgan：Jack. lt's a good name for a girl. I should get one like you for my girlfriend. She loves dogs.

Alex：Hey, have we met before?

Morgan：No, don't think so. Morgan Price.

Alex：Okay.

Morgan：It's Kate, my girlfriend, she's never really liked this place and I promised we'd look for something new once she finishes her residency. So if you hear of anything....
