Hard Left, Cut Right
Summary
- Cameron finds a clue about his possible father, real estate tycoon Simon Brinks, who spends his weekends at his villa in the San Juan Islands, and decides to pay him a visit.
- He first invites Avery, a woman he's dating intermittently, but she declines due to work-related reasons and promises to meet with him later in the week.
- Cameron also reflects on the positive changes in his life so far, like a budding relationship with Avery and a steady job at the aquarium, where he also interacts with Tova, a woman who's obsessed with an octopus and occasionally visits despite being on medical leave.
- He shares his plan with Ethan, who decides to accompany Cameron on his quest to meet his potential father by driving to Simon’s place in his truck.

- Once they reach the identified location, they find no villa there and realize they got the wrong address. A tricky rut in the road hampers their progress for a while, but Cameron, with his past off-roading experience, gets them out of the rut with a combination of moving the truck forward, wedging the right tire with a rock and cutting a hard left and right
- They laugh off the ensuing trip and Cameron finds the situation fun, and he decides to do some more off-roading with Ethan
