- Mm-hmm.

Well, I think that

with enough hard work,

- and one on one time, Carrie...

- Mm-hmm.

And I can get you there.

- That's great.

- And me too?

Yeah, I don't know, I'm not sure.

One thing you should know

about us is that we...

don't love sustained physical activity.

That is actually really common.

So how do people run marathons, then?

Um, have you ever had a runner's high?

No.

Well, if you push

yourself hard enough...

- Mm-hmm.

- And long enough...

The bod just takes you

to a whole other place.

And all those feelings

of stress, pain, worry,

all those distractions,

they just start to melt away

with every bead of sweat.

And you know what's left?

[TRANQUIL MUSIC]

Magic!

I want that.

I want to give it to you.

[GASPS]

- What?

- Turkey!

It's dead.

Whoa, the whole country?

Oh, no. "A turkey."

I'm so sorry. I alarmed everybody.

"A turkey is dead."

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Just one more piece of the puzzle, Sam!

This bridge completes the Rose Route.

Now, we are prepared to offer...

There's only one thing I really want.

Anything, anything. Just ask.

How 'bout you stop building

ugly condos in my sightline.

Morrison Bridge is yours.

[TENSE MUSIC]

[BELL DINGS]

Hey, Candace, oh my God!

There's the most brilliant loop to

run over that way. Have you done it?

Do you know how long I've

been looking for you?

- I made you breakfast...

- Oh.

Out of the goodness of my own budget.

With my hands!

Do you think I enjoy making

breakfast for other people?

- No.

- I do!

But, honey, when you say

you're gonna be there,

you...

have to be there!

I'm... I'm really sorry

if I've upset you.

I just, um...

I train in the mornings,

but if you wanted to,

we could hang out this evening,

I have to get up early in the morning,

since it's the marathon.

But I'm so sorry.

Apology accepted.

I've got to have a shower.

Are we friends?

- We are best friends.

- Good.

But I enjoy being angry,

so you can go inside, shower,

do whatever you need,

but I'm just gonna yell

at an imaginary you.

Okay, lovely.

As a guest?

Oh, and you prancing around

like you're the queen of the world!

Well, you're not!

- No!

- Candace, I'm so sorry.

- Where are the towels?

- The blue cabinet.

Oh, okay. Thanks.

Do I look like I'm smiling? Huh?

Up, up, good, good.

Looking good, Care-bear.

- Thank you.

- Hey, Bailey.

I'm not getting that runner's high.

I was thinking I'd love the

feeling of not running anymore

and just looking at my phone.

Yeah, do whatever you want, pal.

Hey, Carrie, how are you feeling?

From here, it's looking good.

It's all working.

I don't have a runner's high,

but yeah, I feel... I feel great.

All right, well, let me know
