BRAN'S DOUBLE SCOOP SYNOPSIS:

Nora is a hotshot advertiser who brings her boss, Alexandra, a cake for her birthday. Alexandra left their previous company, H Company, to start a rival firm. Nora’s closest teammate—and rival—James chose to stay behind, and now he’s up for the potential Vice President role.

Nora goes out to dinner with her pregnant friend Jacks, who insists they stop at her favorite ice cream spot, Darlington Dairy. Nora tries it, is blown away, and wonders why she’s never heard of it before. (Good question, Nora.)

Meanwhile, James’ boss tells him the VP role is between him and Lavery. Whoever brings in the hottest new client within the next two weeks gets the job.

The next day, Nora and James bump into each other. She drops her bag, and it’s full of ice cream. She lies, saying it’s for the office, when in reality, she’s eyeing Darlington Dairy as a client. Unfortunately for her, she leaves a carton behind, and James scoops it up. He brings it to his boss and claims the idea as his own.

Soon enough, both Nora and James are on planes to Wisconsin to meet the owners. By coincidence, they’re staying at the same inn, in neighboring rooms. Their paths officially collide when they both show up to take the owners to dinner. Classic double booking. Naturally, they all dine together.

After dinner, Nora and James lay down some ground rules: no sabotage, no scarfing down ice cream to win favor, and both present their pitches—the best pitch wins. (Which, let’s be honest, feels like the only rule that should matter.)

The next morning, Nora’s car won’t start. Turns out it’s an EV, and she forgot to charge it. James offers her a ride.

From there, they spend more time together—working on the farm, sharing late nights. One sleepless evening leads to a romantic night under the stars, surrounded by fireflies.

One day, James chats with the mayor and learns the town is running out of funding for local farms. He pitches to his boss that they donate money to help, and his boss loves the idea—especially since the owners will surely be impressed.

Nora sees James meeting with the mayor and grows suspicious, though she’s also starting to genuinely enjoy his company.

At the town’s ice cream festival, the mayor announces the new farmers’ fund in front of everyone. Nora is furious—she feels James is bribing the owners.

Finally, pitch day arrives. The owners choose James.

Back at the office, James learns his boss called ahead and warned the owners against working with Alexandra. Disgusted, he quits.

Later, Nora discovers the owners called her instead—they’re going with her after all, because they found out James walked away.

She goes to see James, who reveals Alexandra offered him a job. He’ll only take it if it’s okay with her, because he’s madly in love with her and doesn’t want anything to come between them again. They kiss—and kiss some more.
