Four weeks into Louisa’s time in New York, Sam arrives for a weekend visit. After checking into their hotel room, Sam and Louisa go for a walk. They fill each other in on their respective news—Louisa does most of the talking, but she learns Sam has finally found a new work partner. Sam eats a burrito from a food truck before they head back to the hotel. They have sex, but Sam finishes quickly; he then falls asleep, which leaves Louisa feeling disappointed. When Sam wakes up a couple hours later, he rushes to the bathroom with an upset stomach and food poisoning.

Sam’s condition leaves him tired and unable to leave the hotel room the whole weekend. Unable to bear the disappointment, Louisa heads back to the Lavery for a short while on Sunday evening, where she chats with Ashok, whose wife is also upset with him for taking a weekend shift and leaving her home alone with their children.

Back at the hotel room, Sam apologizes to Louisa for the wasted weekend. They talk for a while, sharing secrets with each other. Sam is having difficulties adjusting to work after having been shot; Louisa shares her experience of having been sexually assaulted in the past.
