A greater force - an event in which no party can be held accountable...

Louis invites Gibby for a weeklong stay away from Coral Cove, and they embark on a trip to Hilton Head. She thinks it will be a romantic getaway, but Louis has other ideas and keeps it platonic.

She spends her days lounging while Louis golfs. While she does meet a couple of women who invite her to play in a golf tournament, she's alone on this supposedly romantic getaway.

Even though she's never played golf, Gibby agrees to join the tournament, just to have some fun. Louis tries to coach her, but that only ends up in an argument. She insists they take a day off from golfing, and they have a good time together away from it all.

After a week of nothing, Louis finally tells her he cares about her. Except he's leaving for Europe soon, so where does that leave Gibby?
