A getaway to Hawaii sets the stage for a romantic vacation. Ben not so subtly tells Sigrid to dress nicely for dinner one night. He makes several last minute changes to the proposal, unbeknownst to Sigrid, who is wondering why Ben keeps stepping away to take phone calls instead of watching the sea turtles with her. He takes her to Polo Beach for a sunset stroll. She looks at him as he bends down on one knee and says, "Ben, I see the photographer." This is followed by, "of course" to a lifetime together.
