Thanks to the power of Google, I just learned what a yurt is.

At first, I thought you were saying "yacht" in a really annoying way (staying in character), but then I realized that wouldn't really follow with the plot of the movie...

ROFL!!! Did you know there is an actual term for this type of character? It's called a Manic Pixie Dream Girl. This was a pretty interesting read:

I'm the crusty old/fatherly/loveable police chief who willingly looks the other way while you go on a high speed chase to apprehend the bad guy, even though I made you turn in your badge this morning.

Because I knew your father, who was killed while we were on patrol together, and his dying words were "Look after my boy...".
