Step-by-step explanation:

Laurie came to Nice intending to stay a week but ends up lazing about for a month. They get along very well except for Laurie's lack of ambition. Laurie's character is portrayed as someone who can easily settle into a comfortable routine without much drive to pursue greater goals, leading to friction in the relationship mentioned in the context of the narrative.
