Summary

Crystal gets mail from Randy, and tells Michelle about him, and also about Marlin and Jackpine walking the AT. There is also a letter from Crystal's mother, and Scooter thinks about the trouble Crystal has had with her family. Scooter never knew her father, and her mother has died, so she has no family at all.

They discover that Michelle is a surfer, and the three of them discuss the possibility of going surfing in Florida at Buddha & Giselle's once the season has finished.

Later in the evening, at the Burro, over several beers Michelle walks Scooter and Crystal through the personnel shuffles that will be required, but they really, really need Al to come back to work.
