The first person Cary found
was Sir John, who was hiking in the Himalayas at the time.
While Cary and James were
at a health club looking for Catherine, Catherine's young daughter
fell into the pool. Cary jumped in and saved the little girl
which led to James and Catherine meeting again, although she
didn't know who he was.
Brian: Rita, Mr. Maxwell ... he's always
sincere, isn't he?
Rita: Even when he's talking to himself.
Cary: Bringing people back together again
... that is, people who really care about each other ... well,
it helps.
Cary: One of the risks of this business
is not everyone wants to be found.
