Final Approach (2)

Joe and Brian are divided over their new-found inheritance: Joe wants to expand the business, and Brian wants to use the money to leave Nantucket and the tedium of his job. Joe's agony over the dissolving of the partnership is further complicated when he learns of Helen's earth shaking news: she's been invited to study cello in Vienna with the world's greatest cellist. Joe is prepared to sacrifice Sandpiper to help Helen finally live her dream, but it is Brian who makes the final sacrifice by postponing his and Casey's move to the Caribbean in order to run Sandpiper for one year while Joe and Helen are away in Vienna.
