trick vs. gimmick


What was the daughter trying to communicate to her father by referencing the long ago conversation about the distinction between a trick and a gimmick? In what way was that information useful to the father? She asks, "Was the promise kept?", with regard to her skating partner. What is the relevance of that, as well?

reply

That was her plan to lead her father to the people that abducted her. She sent them to the skating rink to talk to the boy and film him so she could make a "new story", hoping her father would also be there because of what she said. It's a plan that depended on a lot of coincidence, but those are the plans that always work out in movies.
