Elizabeth – now Beth – gets another server job at a casino in a small town in Nevada. Here she meets Leslie, an inveterate poker player who has lost all her money. Beth lends her her $2200 in exchange for the money back, plus a third of her winnings or her car, a new Jaguar XK, if she loses. When she loses, she fulfills her promise by giving Beth her Jaguar, but asks for a lift to Las Vegas to borrow money from her father, whom she has not seen in a long time. En route, a call comes from a Vegas hospital informs Leslie her father has been admitted and is dying. She believes the call is a ruse to lure her back, but upon arrival she discovers he actually died the previous night. Leslie announces she's keeping the car, which she had stolen from her father. He had sent her the title and registration despite their estrangement. She confesses she actually won the poker game and subsequently helps Beth negotiate the purchase of her dream car.

As she eats a slice of blueberry pie, Elizabeth realizes her feelings for him are reciprocated. She 'passes out' on the counter after spending the night in conversation. Jeremy again steals a kiss while she is asleep, but now she returns the kiss as the film ends.
