However, Creston has still managed to keep within this reduced budget an imminent trip for himself to a conference in warm and sunny Bora Bora. What Creston also learns is that the one thing the network will not allow him to cut from the budget is a staff retreat, not only in order to team build, but in order to make Creston a more effective manager especially in light of the reduced budget, as the facilitator, First Nations Takoda Calihoo, structures the retreat on the theme of the wolf pack and thus Creston being leader of that pack. Creston has to report back to network brass at the conference meaning that he will have to schedule the retreat for this weekend, about which most of the staff is not too happy in spending their free time together in freezing cold and isolated Fort Morningside, an old fur trading post. As the retreat progresses, they all find that what Takoda, Creston and the staff want out of the weekend are three totally different things. As such, the staff decides to band together to exact a small mutiny not only get what they want out of the weekend, but to implement a more effective allocation of that reduced budget.
