All of My Heart: Inn Love Page #6

---

so we're actually talking

to each other.

Turns out

we have a lot to say.

Anyway,

you two, carry on.

I'm so happy

you're home.

Me too, baby.

Come here.

Hey, hand me

those needle-nose pliers.

This one?

Yep.

Stupid name for pliers.

You know,

this is my first day off

since I went back

to wall street.

Is that what you did?

Only temporarily.

Enough with

the knowing looks, Tommy.

Jenny and I are doing just fine,

thank you.

You still've got that picture

of your 'kids' on your phone?

I'm the same guy, Tommy.

I'm just wearing a suit

to make a buck.

Well...

Don't let the suit

define the man?

You know,

if you weren't so tall,

I could afford to be offended.

Hello?

Is this... Emily's inn, or...?

W-would you like a room?

Although I should warn you,

we don't have any electricity

right now.

Okay, well, do you think the inn

will be fully-functional soon?

It better be,

'cause I'm running

out of candles.

Yes,

I am hoping that everything

will be fixed by tomorrow.

Would you like

to make a reservation?

Okay.

Is it just for yourself?

Yes.

Okay,

and when will you be arriving?

Next Tuesday.

You can put it under...

Denise.

Denise.

okay, great, we'll see you then.

She's clearly an amateur.

How's everything at the inn?

Good.

Nora and Wade

are about to check out.

I got another booking.

I just have

to keep those rooms rented.

You know, I kind of feel like...

Kind of feel

like our money problems

have forced Brian

back to wall street.

That's not what I want.

What does he want?

I don't know.

Hi.

Goodness...

This view is so much better

with you beside me.

Man...

I've got to tell you, Jenny,

I was up all night

monitoring the markets.

I've been falling asleep

on the train.

Jenny, I don't know,

but this commute's

taking a toll,

so...

I thought I'd talk to Harry

and see if maybe

I could stay at his place...

You know, just the week.

What do you think?

I understand.

Do you?

Yeah.

Okay. thank you.

Heck.

I'm going to be...

I'm going to miss my train.

I will call you later.

Okay?

It's not forever, you know.

I'll be home on the weekends.

I'm okay with it.

Well, I think

we're going to get going.

You know

that little shop in doylestown?

They're trying to find me

a matching lamp.

They'll call me

when it comes in.

Well,

I hope you'll stay here.

Of course, we will!

We've had

such a good time.

Well, you are always welcome.

We'll see you soon.

All right, take care.

Roger, I also factored

in all the variables

and the impact

of currency fluctuations.

You got Peterson

back to the table.

He'd only leave Dallas

if he was ready to close.

Good work, guys.

Really good work.

Thank you, Roger.

I made the right decision

getting you involved, Brian.

Yeah, you did.

Appreciate it, man.

You, my friend,

are making yourself

indispensable.

What're you doing?

What're you doing? 'Kay.

Hey...

I've got an empty office

at the end of the hall.

No, no, no, no, no.

This is only supposed

to be temporary, Harry.

I'm only providing a desk.

The ambivalence,

that's all yours.

Enjoy!

I can almost guarantee

it's not as big as yours.

Guaranteed.

Hey, honey.

Hey, I...

I just got a call.

Are you okay?

My distributor was bought out

by another company,

and they may be dropping

Jenny's home baked.

Okay, all right.

Just calm down.

You'll find yourself

another distributor.

It's fine.

Yeah, but it took so long

to get that one.

They want to have a meeting

to discuss the terms.

What do you think?

See, there you go.

They want to meet.

That's a good sign, okay?

Yeah, I hope so.

I know

we really need this income.

We'll be fine.

Keep your chin up.

I love you.

We distribute to supermarkets

and chain stores.

We don't carry

many smaller start-ups like you.

Our sales

are really starting to increase.

You'll need

to step up production,

which means

moving your operation

to Pittsburgh,

where we have a plant.

But... I think bucks county

is a much better fit

for Jenny's home baked.

The personal association

with the brand

is of limited use.

It's not just

a marketing ploy.

We can get you into more stores

if you use cheaper ingredients

to cut down costs.

It's quantity over quaint

in the outlets that we serve.

So what do you think?

I think you're confusing

"quaint" with quality.

I want to make something

I'm proud of.

Well, let me know

how that works out.

Jenny lost her distributor.

No.

Big financial blow, Harry.

At least we have the inn.

Well, and you've

got this job.

Yeah, which is why I've got

to get up to the office.

I've got a lot of work to do.

Listen, have you

talked to Roger

about that meeting

we're supposed to be lining up?

Yeah, I have.

It's all coming together.

Good, 'cause I mean,

we've got to nail

this down, buddy.

Hi!

You must be Denise.

Yes.

Welcome to Emily's Country Inn!

Thank you.

Come on up.

I'll show you to your room.

We're so happy you're here.

Okay, I...

Okay.

Two-story craftsman house.

The room is rather small.

It's adequately furnished.

The bathroom's down the hall.

It's an average view,

just a barn and so on.

Just in case

you want to take a shower.

I should warn you, though...

The plumbing

is a little...

Musical.

Is that so?

Yeah, but it works

totally fine.

Anything else?

How do you take your coffee?

I prefer tea.

Tea.

got it, great.

I'll see you downstairs.

Emily's inn is a bust.

It's a very small chair.

There you go.

So...

all of this food is just for me?

Well,

my other guest is out fishing.

My friend, Tommy, may join us,

but he's actually trying

to fix the electrical outlets.

Well.

That smells so good.

Please,

have a seat.

Tommy,

this is Denise.

Hello.

Hi.

I eat

based on height and weight.

You should try

the blueberry scones.

Okay.

Incredible, right?

It's delicious.

Just wait

until you try the crepes.

This is...

This is very good.

You came to the right place.

I can run the inn

and keep

Jenny's home baked afloat.

You know that coffee-shop chain,

creamacinos?

That would be an

ideal vendor for me.

Yeah, I've been

to the one in Warwick.

I could do an entire line

of cappuccino-flavored pastries.

I've been experimenting

with cupcakes and croissants

all day.

How much cappuccino

have you had?

I had to taste

everything I baked.

Why, do you not think

this is a good idea?

Is this the caffeine talking,

or is this a good idea?

No, it's a good idea.

Okay.

Whatever it is,

it beats me sitting around,

waiting for the phone to ring.

You could always call Brian.

I'm not the one who went away.

You still at it?

Hey, did you know

the nikkei and the Dax

are both way up?

Come on, Harry.

Could play in our favor.

You want a beer?

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Thanks.

You know,

you don't really look like a guy

who's about to walk away

from all this.

You know...

The truth?

I'm confused.

Confused is better

than deceiving yourself.

Cheers.
