Season 2, Carrie has been living in Manhattan, New York City at Larissa's apartment for the past three or four weeks of the summer with Walt at her platonic roommate. With Larissa still out of the country, Carrie has been filling for her at Interview magazine full-time during the day and partying at local nightclubs at night. She has not seen or spoken to either Sebastian or Maggie since their falling out. But by chance during the Fourth of July weekend, Carrie runs into Sebastian when he tags along with Donna to the city to meet Donna's cousin Samantha Jones, an older woman in her early 20s, who co-manages a rock music nightclub. Carrie declines going with Walt, Sebastian, and Donna for she instead goes to her regular hangout where, due to a combination of bad luck and carelessness, Carrie's valued purse gets stolen, and she later has a chance meeting with Samantha who agrees to help her out of being locked out of her apartment. |
