Just when Carrie is almost ready to leave for Paris for good, Mr. Big shows up in his limousine - yet she walks away from him for her last dinner with the girls, where Charlotte cries and Miranda makes up. Samantha has her personal input, from nature and experience, concerning a cancer benefit. Once in Paris, Carrie loves the city, but doesn't love sharing Petrovsky's love with his bratty daughter Chloé and his time with his obligations as busy artist. After a disastrous day shopping, her confidence is down like her credit card limit and she loses her "Carrie" necklace. Carrie calls Miranda, homesick for New York and thinking about Big, who turns to the girls there.
