Molly sees her friend Isabelle, who is married, but plans to spend Christmas with another man; Molly also visits her sick father. Later that day, at the counter in a hectic [[Rizzoli Bookstore|bookstore]], Frank and Molly get their packages mixed up, and on Christmas Day, Molly's husband, Brian, and Frank's wife, Ann, each opens the book that was meant for the other.
Three months later, Frank and Molly, who commute into Manhattan from adjacent stops on the [[Metro-North Railroad|Metro-North]] [[Hudson Line (Metro-North)|Hudson Line]], run into each other on the morning train. They struggle to place each other, but eventually Frank remembers, and reminds her of the confusion over the books. Later that day, Frank's boss asks him to take a post in Houston. Molly visits her father in hospital. Molly tells Isabelle about Frank; Frank tells Ed about Molly. That evening, Frank waits for Molly at [[Grand Central Terminal]].
