–Nathaniel and Rebecca, “When Do I Get to Spend Time with Josh?”

Season overview

Before Rebecca’s engagement to her boyfriend at the time Josh she was introduced to her new boss and co-owner of Whitefeather & Associates Nathaniel Plimpton. They were at the start annoyed with each other but a chance influence by the Santa Ana Winds led to a mutual attraction developing. While trapped in the malfunctioning office elevator, Nathaniel propositioned Rebecca which she rejected. However, she unexpectedly and passionately kissed Nathaniel once their ordeal was over. They both struggled over the attraction but didn’t go any further. Upon hearing Rebecca’s father wasn’t attending her wedding, Nathaniel used his private jet to fly Silas Bunch in for the ceremony. He hoped to win her over but she was distracted by the nuptials, her father’s presence and fulfilling the romantic fantasy she had since moving to West Covina. Unfortunately Josh left her at the altar and Nathaniel along the other wedding guests witnessed Rebecca nearly jumping off a cliff in despair. Rebecca redirected her anger at her father and told him she never wanted to see him again. Nathaniel refused to when Silas asked if he could get a flight home and told him to fly commercial instead.
