00:00:08,302 --> 00:00:10,888
- Kari Baxter,
will you marry me?
- Yes!

00:00:10,888 --> 00:00:12,014
[wedding planner]
I just got off the phone
with the bride
4
00:00:12,014 --> 00:00:13,724
who had cold feet
and canceled.
5
00:00:13,724 --> 00:00:16,685
- When's that date?
- One month from today.
6
00:00:16,685 --> 00:00:18,729
- Diane.
- My teacher's schedule made it
7
00:00:18,729 --> 00:00:20,397
so that I could be her for
the anniversary
8
00:00:20,397 --> 00:00:23,025
of Tim's passing and
Jessie's first birthday, so...
9
00:00:23,025 --> 00:00:25,194
I'm ready to talk about
what happened in Paris.
10
00:00:25,194 --> 00:00:27,321
There was Adrian,
and he was married.
11
00:00:27,321 --> 00:00:28,906
Can I ask about
the inspiration?
12
00:00:28,906 --> 00:00:30,824
It's about my time in Paris.
13
00:00:30,824 --> 00:00:32,743
Well, about moving on from it.
14
00:00:32,743 --> 00:00:34,620
You guys are just going to
brush past all this?
15
00:00:34,620 --> 00:00:35,996
Everybody don't worry
about what happened
16
00:00:35,996 --> 00:00:37,414
at the church a few weeks ago.
17
00:00:37,414 --> 00:00:39,124
I'm walking away
from two houses.
18
00:00:39,124 --> 00:00:41,418
- Lori came to visit.
- Oh.
19
00:00:41,418 --> 00:00:43,670
[Lori] There's not a lot of
people in my life I can trust.
20
00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:45,756
You think maybe we could
talk again sometime?
21
00:00:45,756 --> 00:00:47,633
Let me think about it, okay?

I really, I gotta know.
How can you stand there
49
00:03:35,842 --> 00:03:37,803
and preach to me that
there's some man in the sky
50
00:03:37,803 --> 00:03:39,262
who's looking down
and protecting us?
51
00:03:41,598 --> 00:03:45,686
It's not about logic, Luke.
52
00:03:45,686 --> 00:03:49,690
I have lived long enough
to understand that God is,
53
00:03:49,690 --> 00:03:53,652
is in us, around us...
and for us.
54
00:03:56,321 --> 00:04:00,784
There are miracles
that occur every single day.
55
00:04:00,784 --> 00:04:03,203
Yeah, there's also
horrific tragedies,
56
00:04:03,203 --> 00:04:06,665
earthquakes,
car accidents, shootings.
57
00:04:06,665 --> 00:04:08,583
Where's God
during all those times, huh?
58
00:04:08,583 --> 00:04:09,960
'Cause I'll tell you what,
he certainly wasn't there
to protect Tom Decker.
59
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,003
You're right.
60
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:17,968
You're right.
61
00:04:17,968 --> 00:04:21,596
Terrible things
still happen to good people,
62
00:04:21,596 --> 00:04:24,433
people who trust God.
63
00:04:24,433 --> 00:04:26,893
But you're in too much pain
to hear me when I say that...
64
00:04:28,353 --> 00:04:32,399
God is there
in the heart of chaos,
65
00:04:33,650 --> 00:04:35,569
in your darkest moment.
66
00:04:38,363 --> 00:04:40,782
I don't wanna hear it, Dad.
Okay?
67
00:04:40,782 --> 00:04:42,701
I know you're hurting, Luke.
68
00:04:43,910 --> 00:04:45,662
And the day that
Tom Decker died,
69
00:04:45,662 --> 00:04:47,789
my entire relationship
with Reagan died with him.
70
00:04:50,083 --> 00:04:52,711
I was gonna marry her, Dad.
71
00:04:54,171 --> 00:04:56,965
My entire life
was changed forever. No.
72
00:04:57,841 --> 00:04:58,675
Ruined.
73
00:05:00,302 --> 00:05:01,762
So I'm sorry, but don't
stand there and act like
74
00:05:01,762 --> 00:05:03,013
you understand
what I'm going through
75
00:05:03,013 --> 00:05:04,347

Thank you so much
for letting me
put Jessie to bed.

Such a calming energy.
80
00:05:31,458 --> 00:05:32,584
Ah, like Tim.
81
00:05:32,584 --> 00:05:33,919
You know, when he was a baby,
82
00:05:33,919 --> 00:05:36,421
I once had his father
call the pediatrician
83
00:05:36,421 --> 00:05:39,299
because I thought
he was sleeping too much.
84
00:05:39,299 --> 00:05:40,592
[both chuckle]
85
00:05:40,592 --> 00:05:42,552
- He loved a nap.
- Yeah.
86
00:05:42,552 --> 00:05:44,805
- Even as an adult.
- [chuckles]
87
00:05:44,805 --> 00:05:47,057
I'm glad you're getting to
spend some time alone.
88
00:05:47,057 --> 00:05:48,266
Me, too.
89
00:05:48,266 --> 00:05:49,935
I should visit more often,
90
00:05:49,935 --> 00:05:53,313
but I've been teaching
more courses than usual
this semester.
91
00:05:53,313 --> 00:05:55,273
You know, trying to keep busy.
92
00:05:55,273 --> 00:05:56,566
I understand.
93
00:05:56,566 --> 00:05:59,402
Oh, who is joining us
for dinner?
94
00:05:59,402 --> 00:06:03,073
Um, you remember Ryan, right?
95
00:06:03,073 --> 00:06:04,908
Ryan? Hmm...
96
00:06:04,908 --> 00:06:06,785
I mentioned we've been
seeing each other
97
00:06:06,785 --> 00:06:09,037
- when you came
for Jessie's christening.
- [sighing] Ah.
98
00:06:09,037 --> 00:06:10,580
He usually eats dinner here.
99
00:06:10,580 --> 00:06:12,707
I texted him saying
it might be nice for me
100
00:06:12,707 --> 00:06:13,959
to spend some time
alone with you,
101
00:06:13,959 --> 00:06:15,544
but I hadn't heard back.
102
00:06:15,544 --> 00:06:17,337
- So...
- Right.
103
00:06:17,337 --> 00:06:18,922
So, how's that going?
104
00:06:20,257 --> 00:06:22,175
Really well. Um...
105
00:06:23,093 --> 00:06:25,011
he's great with Jessie.
106

[in normal voice] Diane.
109
00:06:36,731 --> 00:06:39,568
- Hey, how are you?
- I'm good.
110
00:06:39,568 --> 00:06:41,570
How are you?
111
00:06:41,570 --> 00:06:43,947
- Good. Good.
- [Diane clears throat]
112
00:06:43,947 --> 00:06:46,825
Uh... What, uh...
113
00:06:46,825 --> 00:06:48,285
What brings you to town?
114
00:06:48,285 --> 00:06:51,204
Diane's gonna be
staying with me for a bit.
115
00:06:51,204 --> 00:06:54,875
Um, for Jessie's birthday
and Tim's...
116
00:06:54,875 --> 00:06:56,668
I texted you all about it.
117
00:06:57,294 --> 00:06:58,503
Oh... Uh, yeah.
118
00:06:58,503 --> 00:07:00,630
My phone is always
at the bottom of my bag
119
00:07:00,630 --> 00:07:02,340
during practice days. So...
120
00:07:02,340 --> 00:07:04,217
Ryan coaches football
at the university.
121
00:07:04,217 --> 00:07:07,512
They have the best record
in history, thanks to him.
122
00:07:07,512 --> 00:07:09,181
Congratulations then.
123
00:07:09,181 --> 00:07:10,724
[Ryan] It's a team effort.
124
00:07:10,724 --> 00:07:13,101
I'm gonna go check
on the chicken.
It's probably ready.
125
00:07:13,101 --> 00:07:14,728
Maybe you can come
help me bring out some food.
126
00:07:14,728 --> 00:07:15,937
[Ryan] Absolutely.
127
00:07:17,689 --> 00:07:19,357
- This is a surprise.
- I know.
128
00:07:19,357 --> 00:07:21,818
She just showed up
without warning.
129
00:07:21,818 --> 00:07:24,196
Oh, this is
completely my fault.
130
00:07:24,196 --> 00:07:26,990
I've been avoiding her.
Not taking her calls.
131
00:07:26,990 --> 00:07:29,492
I didn't know what to say
with the anniversary
132
00:07:29,492 --> 00:07:31,077
and, well, with us.
133
00:07:31,077 --> 00:07:32,913
What do you mean?
134
00:07:32,913 --> 00:07:34,372
Ryan, she doesn't know
we're engaged.
135
00:07:35,165 --> 00:07:35,999
Why?
136
00:07:35,999 --> 00:07:37,792
I didn't know how to tell her.
137
00:07:37,792 --> 00:07:39,920
- It seems pretty simple to me.
- [sighs]
138
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,338
I wanna be sensitive.
139
00:07:41,338 --> 00:07:45,050
She lost her son
one year ago, tomorrow.
140
00:07:45,050 --> 00:07:47,469
And I'm sure
she's still hurting,
141
00:07:47,469 --> 00:07:49,638
and this isn't gonna help.
142
00:07:49,638 --> 00:07:51,223
How would you do it?
143
00:07:51,223 --> 00:07:53,642
And I know tomorrow's
a lot for you, too.
144
00:07:53,642 --> 00:07:56,811
I was feeling a lot more
at peace until this.
145
00:07:56,811 --> 00:07:59,648
Okay. Um, we'll
get through it together.
146
00:07:59,648 --> 00:08:00,732
But you gotta tell her.
147
00:08:01,775 --> 00:08:03,902
I will,
when the timing is right.
148
00:08:17,457 --> 00:08:18,291
Erin?
149
00:08:20,210 --> 00:08:22,128
What brings you in so late?
150
00:08:22,128 --> 00:08:24,130
I just needed
some time to think.
151
00:08:24,130 --> 00:08:26,091
I hope it's okay that I'm here.
152
00:08:26,091 --> 00:08:27,425
Of course.
153
00:08:27,425 --> 00:08:29,302
His house is our house.
154
00:08:31,846 --> 00:08:33,390
Anything I can help you with?
155
00:08:35,642 --> 00:08:36,601
Um...
156
00:08:38,353 --> 00:08:40,272
I...
157
00:08:40,272 --> 00:08:44,317
I haven't mentioned this
to many people, but...
158
00:08:45,986 --> 00:08:48,822
I feel really ready
to start a family.
159
00:08:49,781 --> 00:08:53,201
And I'm afraid Sam
160
00:08:53,201 --> 00:08:56,705
is... on a different timeline.
161
00:08:58,373 --> 00:09:01,334
Have you and Sam
spoken about your feelings?
162
00:09:01,334 --> 00:09:02,752
Not exactly.
163
00:09:02,752 --> 00:09:05,130
I'm struggling to find
a way to bring that up.
164
00:09:06,172 --> 00:09:07,632
Mmm.
165
00:09:07,632 --> 00:09:09,926
I think I'm just extra nervous
with her big move coming up.
166
00:09:11,219 --> 00:09:12,887
We'll be alone there.
167
00:09:12,887 --> 00:09:15,140
Mmm. [chuckles softly]
168
00:09:15,140 --> 00:09:18,268
I understand all the fears
around big moves.
169
00:09:19,686 --> 00:09:22,147
When Pastor Mark
offered me the job
170
00:09:22,147 --> 00:09:23,857
as Associate Pastor here,
171
00:09:24,941 --> 00:09:26,735
I almost turned it down.
172
00:09:26,735 --> 00:09:29,029
Really? Why?
173
00:09:29,029 --> 00:09:31,448
Well, I knew he wanted
to groom the role
174
00:09:31,448 --> 00:09:34,075
to take over his retirement.
175
00:09:34,075 --> 00:09:38,330
And even with
my Masters in Theology,
176
00:09:38,330 --> 00:09:41,082
I was so nervous
to take the step.
177
00:09:41,082 --> 00:09:44,794
I'd be here alone,
preparing to lead.
178
00:09:45,587 --> 00:09:47,297
So I had to remember...
179
00:09:48,715 --> 00:09:51,343
God's will sustains me.
180
00:09:52,844 --> 00:09:54,262
And I let him.
181
00:09:55,347 --> 00:09:56,389
[exhales deeply]
182
00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:59,100
Dallas will be
new to you, Erin.
183
00:10:00,477 --> 00:10:03,313
But God sees you. And Sam.
184
00:10:03,313 --> 00:10:05,565
[chuckles softly]
185
00:10:05,565 --> 00:10:07,734
You are never alone.
186
00:10:09,444 --> 00:10:10,278
[sighs]
187
00:10:15,450 --> 00:10:18,161
Sweet of Ryan
to check on the baby.
188
00:10:18,161 --> 00:10:21,373
He's so great
with getting her back to sleep.
189
00:10:21,373 --> 00:10:23,333
Really helpful.
190
00:10:23,333 --> 00:10:24,709
I see that.
191
00:10:26,961 --> 00:10:28,213
So, how are we
192
00:10:28,213 --> 00:10:30,715
gonna celebrate
Jessie's big day tomorrow?
193
00:10:30,715 --> 00:10:32,425
Well, I thought about
throwing a party,
194
00:10:32,425 --> 00:10:34,928
but it just doesn't feel right.
195
00:10:34,928 --> 00:10:37,138
So, we're gonna keep it small.
196
00:10:37,138 --> 00:10:40,809
My parents will come over
for a special breakfast
in the morning.
197
00:10:40,809 --> 00:10:42,602
Mmm. That's nice.
198
00:10:42,602 --> 00:10:46,064
And we will make time to visit
Tim's gravesite, right?
199
00:10:46,064 --> 00:10:47,065
Of course.
200
00:10:48,775 --> 00:10:52,070
God, I can't believe
it's been a full year already.
201
00:10:52,070 --> 00:10:55,740
Seems like
it just happened yesterday.
202
00:10:55,740 --> 00:10:58,785
But then, I feel the same
about the day
203
00:10:58,785 --> 00:11:01,454
we lost Tim's dad.
204
00:11:01,454 --> 00:11:04,082
I remember Tim telling me
about visiting him
205
00:11:04,082 --> 00:11:05,458
on that one year anniversary.
206
00:11:07,460 --> 00:11:09,671
And on that day,
207
00:11:09,671 --> 00:11:11,548
Tim promised that
he was gonna be
208
00:11:11,548 --> 00:11:14,801
a loving
and strong father someday,
209
00:11:14,801 --> 00:11:16,761
just like his father was.
210
00:11:19,889 --> 00:11:22,183
Thank you for having me.
211
00:11:22,183 --> 00:11:24,561
Thank you for coming, Diane.
212
00:11:26,604 --> 00:11:27,772

00:11:37,740 --> 00:11:39,242
Mommy, I'm hungry.
215
00:11:39,242 --> 00:11:40,326
I know, baby. I'm sorry.
216
00:11:40,326 --> 00:11:41,828
Dinner will be ready
in five minutes.

[cell phone ringing]
219
00:11:51,713 --> 00:11:52,714
Hello.
220
00:11:52,714 --> 00:11:54,215
Ashley, it's Cynthia.
221
00:11:55,133 --> 00:11:56,676
Oh, Cynthia, Hi.
222
00:11:56,676 --> 00:11:58,595
[sighs] I am so glad
I caught you.
223
00:11:58,595 --> 00:12:00,305
I have some fabulous news.
224
00:12:00,305 --> 00:12:01,890
A client was at the gallery
225
00:12:01,890 --> 00:12:03,766
and your work caught his eye
226
00:12:03,766 --> 00:12:05,894
and he wants it.
227
00:12:05,894 --> 00:12:07,187
Lots of it.
228
00:12:07,937 --> 00:12:09,105
[inaudible]
229
00:12:09,105 --> 00:12:10,982
Hello? Are you there?
230
00:12:10,982 --> 00:12:13,276
Yes. Yes, I'm here. I'm just--
231
00:12:13,276 --> 00:12:14,694
Sorry, I was
a little speechless.
232
00:12:14,694 --> 00:12:16,613
He's reserved
two of them for himself so far.
233
00:12:16,613 --> 00:12:18,740
Now, of course,
we will still feature these
in the show,
234
00:12:18,740 --> 00:12:20,950
but I think we're going to
need more original pieces.
235
00:12:20,950 --> 00:12:25,288
I anticipate there being
a lot of buzz around your work.
236
00:12:25,288 --> 00:12:26,915
How many are you thinking?
237
00:12:26,915 --> 00:12:30,627
Well, I want to say six,
but that seems daunting.
238
00:12:30,627 --> 00:12:31,961
Let's say four.
239
00:12:31,961 --> 00:12:33,755
Four? Four brand new pieces?
240
00:12:33,755 --> 00:12:36,508
I know it's only two weeks,
but you are so brilliant.
241
00:12:36,508 --> 00:12:37,759
I know you can do it.
242
00:12:39,802 --> 00:12:41,596
Okay. Yeah,
I think I can manage.
243
00:12:41,596 --> 00:12:43,306
That's why you're my star.
244
00:12:43,306 --> 00:12:44,599
All right. I gotta run.
245
00:12:44,599 --> 00:12:45,600
[in sing-song voice]
Bye for now.
246
00:12:48,811 --> 00:12:50,897
[exhales]
247
00:12:50,897 --> 00:12:53,274
Okay. Okay. You can do this.
You just have to focus.
248
00:12:53,274 --> 00:12:55,527
Erika can help
with Sunset Hills.
249
00:12:55,527 --> 00:12:57,237
Mom and Dad can help with Cole.
250
00:12:58,780 --> 00:13:00,615
Four pieces in two weeks.
251
00:13:02,033 --> 00:13:03,576
[sighs]
252
00:13:03,576 --> 00:13:05,161
This is everything
you ever wanted.
253
00:13:07,205 --> 00:13:09,457
[chuckles]
254
00:13:09,457 --> 00:13:13,211
[Elizabeth] So, are things
going any better
with you and Luke?
255
00:13:13,211 --> 00:13:14,587
[Lori] It hasn't been easy.
256
00:13:14,587 --> 00:13:16,548
That's why I've been
staying with my friend Gabby.
257
00:13:16,548 --> 00:13:17,590
I'm so sorry.
258
00:13:19,259 --> 00:13:22,554
I wonder if counseling
might help you.
259
00:13:22,554 --> 00:13:23,638
I'm not sure.
260
00:13:23,638 --> 00:13:24,889
I've been...
261
00:13:26,474 --> 00:13:28,434
I don't want to call it
praying, maybe,
262
00:13:28,434 --> 00:13:30,311
more like meditating.
263
00:13:30,311 --> 00:13:33,523
Well, people use
many different words
264
00:13:33,523 --> 00:13:34,899
to describe prayer.
265
00:13:34,899 --> 00:13:36,734
Well, you gave me the idea,
266
00:13:36,734 --> 00:13:38,778
and I find it very comforting.
267
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:40,530
I'm so glad.
268
00:13:42,073 --> 00:13:43,825
I've been praying
for you, Lori.
269
00:13:48,621 --> 00:13:49,914
[door opens]
270
00:13:51,749 --> 00:13:53,918
[Lori] Hi, Dr. Baxter.
271
00:13:53,918 --> 00:13:56,421
John, you remember Lori?
272
00:13:58,548 --> 00:14:00,383
Of course.
273
00:14:00,383 --> 00:14:03,469
Lori, you... [sighs]
You look well.
274
00:14:03,469 --> 00:14:06,598
Elizabeth told me
you two are having dinner.
275
00:14:06,598 --> 00:14:09,058
Yeah, I've left a plate
for you on the counter.
276
00:14:09,058 --> 00:14:11,352
Lori and I are
just about to have dessert.
277
00:14:11,352 --> 00:14:13,187
Elizabeth made an apple pie.
278
00:14:13,187 --> 00:14:14,689
She's spoiling me.
279
00:14:14,689 --> 00:14:17,400
Apple pie. Might have to eat
my dinner in reverse.
280
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,068
- [chuckles]
- [chuckles] Okay, well,
281
00:14:19,068 --> 00:14:20,278
why don't you sit down?
282
00:14:20,278 --> 00:14:23,281
You two relax,
and I will get the pie.
283
00:14:26,993 --> 00:14:27,994
Thank you.
284
00:14:29,370 --> 00:14:30,371
Hmm.
285
00:14:36,252 --> 00:14:37,295
[clears throat]
286
00:14:42,508 --> 00:14:44,761
Elizabeth has been
very helpful to me.
287
00:14:46,137 --> 00:14:47,472
I'm a better person around her.
288
00:14:47,472 --> 00:14:48,598
Mmm.
289
00:14:49,557 --> 00:14:51,267
She has that effect on me, too.
290
00:14:52,518 --> 00:14:55,063
Thank you for having me.
I-I know this...
291
00:14:55,063 --> 00:14:58,441
could feel a bit weird.
292
00:14:59,525 --> 00:15:02,987
[sighs] It is a little awkward,
293
00:15:04,864 --> 00:15:06,115
but love...
294
00:15:07,700 --> 00:15:11,162
and understanding
will always be here.
295
00:15:12,830 --> 00:15:13,873
That's who we are.
296
00:15:24,634 --> 00:15:25,802
[sighing] Okay.
297
00:15:25,802 --> 00:15:27,553
Diane's all settled
in the guest room.
298
00:15:30,431 --> 00:15:32,183
I'm sure it's been
a long day for her.
299
00:15:34,894 --> 00:15:36,562
Kari, can I confess
something to you?
300
00:15:38,064 --> 00:15:39,065
Anything.
301
00:15:41,067 --> 00:15:43,361
I'm trying not to
take it personally
302
00:15:43,361 --> 00:15:45,697
that you don't want
to tell Diane that
we're getting married.
303
00:15:48,574 --> 00:15:50,618
Well, I'm having a hard time.
304
00:15:50,618 --> 00:15:54,163
Trust me, it has
nothing to do with you.
305
00:15:54,163 --> 00:15:56,749
I didn't tell Diane because
I'm afraid of her reaction.
306
00:15:57,834 --> 00:15:59,794
She's still grieving.
307
00:15:59,794 --> 00:16:04,257
Look, I cannot imagine
what she's feeling.
308
00:16:05,466 --> 00:16:07,760
But this, you and me,
309
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,221
it's real, and it's happening.
310
00:16:10,221 --> 00:16:11,305
It's finally happening.
311
00:16:12,724 --> 00:16:14,642
She needs to know.
312
00:16:14,642 --> 00:16:16,227
I still feel connected to her.
313
00:16:16,227 --> 00:16:18,438
She was my mother-in-law.
314
00:16:18,438 --> 00:16:20,606
And with the anniversary, uh...
315
00:16:20,606 --> 00:16:21,816
It feels like
really bad timing--
316
00:16:21,816 --> 00:16:23,526
Bad timing for her or you?
317
00:16:29,282 --> 00:16:30,408
I'm sorry.
318
00:16:31,242 --> 00:16:33,119
I promise I will tell her.
319
00:16:35,747 --> 00:16:36,706
Okay.
320
00:16:39,167 --> 00:16:40,209
All right.
321
00:16:43,588 --> 00:16:44,672
I should go.
322
00:16:47,967 --> 00:16:49,135
[sighs] Hey...
323
00:16:51,888 --> 00:16:53,681
Will you send me
some pictures tomorrow
324
00:16:53,681 --> 00:16:56,017
- of Jessie and her cake?
- Of course.
325
00:16:57,393 --> 00:16:59,145
I'm sorry I can't make it,
all right? I just...
326
00:16:59,145 --> 00:17:00,646
I have practice.
327
00:17:00,646 --> 00:17:01,981
Honestly, it might be
for the best,
328
00:17:01,981 --> 00:17:03,691
considering everything
with Diane.
329
00:17:05,067 --> 00:17:05,943
Right.
330
00:17:10,239 --> 00:17:12,283
Good night.

in this house.

- Hi.

- Happy birthday.
- Not gonna be
an easy day for any of us.
341

No, but we gotta
fill it with joy
for our sweet little Jessie.

00:18:31,279 --> 00:18:33,447
Well, I have to say,
357
00:18:33,447 --> 00:18:36,284
this cake was a huge hit. Mmm.
358
00:18:36,284 --> 00:18:38,661
- One of my finest.
- [John mumbling indistinctly]
359
00:18:39,161 --> 00:18:40,788
[John] Hey.
360
00:18:40,788 --> 00:18:43,749
[sighs] Diane's just
finishing up with Jessie
in the bath.
361
00:18:43,749 --> 00:18:46,794
I just thought they should
have some special time alone.
362
00:18:46,794 --> 00:18:47,795
Aw, that's sweet.
363
00:18:47,795 --> 00:18:50,631
- How's it going?
- It's a lot.
364
00:18:50,631 --> 00:18:51,674
[John] Yeah.
365
00:18:51,674 --> 00:18:53,968
Well, she could come
stay with us.
366
00:18:53,968 --> 00:18:55,052
You know, we have room.
367
00:18:55,052 --> 00:18:56,679
No, it's fine.
I want her to stay here.
368
00:18:56,679 --> 00:18:57,930
It's just, it's hard.
369
00:18:57,930 --> 00:19:00,141
I mean,
she's a physical reminder
of Tim.
370
00:19:03,644 --> 00:19:04,896
There's something else.
371
00:19:06,063 --> 00:19:08,566
I haven't told her
372
00:19:08,566 --> 00:19:10,902
that Ryan and I
are getting married.
373
00:19:13,279 --> 00:19:16,657
Oh, no wonder
you're struggling, huh?
374
00:19:16,657 --> 00:19:20,453
As hard as it will be for her
to see you moving on,
375
00:19:20,453 --> 00:19:22,955
I believe she'll really be
happy for you.
376
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,043
You know, I think sometimes
377
00:19:27,043 --> 00:19:31,047
we think
we're protecting someone
from a difficult truth
378
00:19:31,047 --> 00:19:34,675
but in reality,
we're protecting ourselves
379
00:19:34,675 --> 00:19:36,594
from confronting them.
380
00:19:39,138 --> 00:19:40,514
You're right.
381
00:19:40,514 --> 00:19:44,560
Why don't you let Dad and me
take Jessie this afternoon
382
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,355
and you go visit the grave
with Diane together?
383
00:19:47,355 --> 00:19:49,023
I like that idea.
384
00:19:49,023 --> 00:19:50,358
Thank you.
385
00:19:51,317 --> 00:19:52,401
That'll be nice.
386
00:20:08,042 --> 00:20:09,877
You know, I'd like to say
a few words.
387
00:20:09,877 --> 00:20:11,545
- Please.
- Yeah.
388
00:20:13,923 --> 00:20:15,007
Tim...
389
00:20:16,425 --> 00:20:18,177
my baby...
390
00:20:18,177 --> 00:20:20,638
[sobbing] We miss you so much.
391
00:20:20,638 --> 00:20:23,432
There's not a day that goes by
that I don't think of you.
392
00:20:25,393 --> 00:20:27,478
But your spirit, honey,
393
00:20:27,478 --> 00:20:29,814
it lives on
in your beautiful daughter.
394
00:20:29,814 --> 00:20:34,860
I mean, she is happy
and healthy and strong,
395
00:20:34,860 --> 00:20:37,780
just like you were
on your first birthday.
396
00:20:38,990 --> 00:20:40,700
[sniffles]
397
00:20:40,700 --> 00:20:43,244
I thank God for that miracle.
398
00:20:43,244 --> 00:20:45,287
And I thank God for the chance
399
00:20:45,287 --> 00:20:48,040
just to have a piece of you
in her eyes.
400
00:20:54,672 --> 00:20:57,091
Everything changed
the day you died, Tim.
401
00:20:58,718 --> 00:21:01,220
My world got darker
402
00:21:01,220 --> 00:21:03,848
even with the light
of our daughter in it.
403
00:21:04,932 --> 00:21:07,435
But you live on in my mind
404
00:21:07,435 --> 00:21:08,978
and in my heart.
405
00:21:11,147 --> 00:21:13,107
Whatever happens in my future,
406
00:21:14,483 --> 00:21:18,446
just know, you will always
have my eternal love.
407
00:21:22,908 --> 00:21:23,993
[Diane sobs]
408
00:21:25,536 --> 00:21:26,412
Shall we?
409
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:28,956
Yeah.
410
00:21:37,506 --> 00:21:39,050
Kari, I know losing Tim
411
00:21:39,050 --> 00:21:40,801
has been a weight
on your heart.
412
00:21:42,970 --> 00:21:45,681
Honey, but God wants you
to have a full life.
413
00:21:45,681 --> 00:21:49,268
He wants you to walk
towards the beauty and love
414
00:21:49,268 --> 00:21:51,353
that brings you joy.
415
00:21:51,353 --> 00:21:53,939
And let Jessie be that path
416
00:21:53,939 --> 00:21:56,358
that, you know, brings you
back to yourself, honey.
417
00:21:59,904 --> 00:22:02,323
Diane, I have
to confess something
418
00:22:02,323 --> 00:22:04,950
that I've been afraid to admit.
419
00:22:04,950 --> 00:22:06,077
Okay.
420
00:22:07,995 --> 00:22:09,705
Ryan and I are getting married.
421
00:22:12,208 --> 00:22:13,334
Oh.
422
00:22:14,085 --> 00:22:15,252
[Diane sighs]
423
00:22:15,961 --> 00:22:17,505
- When?
- Next month.
424
00:22:17,505 --> 00:22:18,839
Oh!
425
00:22:18,839 --> 00:22:21,342
I know, it's so soon.
426
00:22:21,342 --> 00:22:23,803
Uh, but we found
this incredible venue,
427
00:22:23,803 --> 00:22:25,721
and we both
fell in love with it.
428
00:22:25,721 --> 00:22:28,599
So, it just felt like a sign.
429
00:22:28,599 --> 00:22:30,643
I didn't know
when or how to tell you.
430
00:22:30,643 --> 00:22:32,394
I'm so sorry.
431
00:22:32,394 --> 00:22:33,813
Well, I guess, you know,
432
00:22:33,813 --> 00:22:36,232
you're having an easier time
moving on with your life
433
00:22:36,232 --> 00:22:37,900
- than I thought.
- No.
434
00:22:37,900 --> 00:22:38,943
No, it's not that at all.
435
00:22:38,943 --> 00:22:40,486
- I've been struggling...
- Oh!
436
00:22:40,486 --> 00:22:42,655
...especially with how fast
this is all moving.
437
00:22:42,655 --> 00:22:45,741
But with Ryan, I'm at peace.
438
00:22:45,741 --> 00:22:48,494
We've known each other
almost our whole lives.
439
00:22:48,494 --> 00:22:51,539
And I really believe
he could help me move on
440
00:22:51,539 --> 00:22:54,500
in a healthy and loving way,
441
00:22:54,500 --> 00:22:56,627
so I can be the best
possible mother to Jessie.
442
00:22:56,627 --> 00:22:57,962
I'm glad you told me.
443
00:22:59,463 --> 00:23:01,423
I hope you still have me
in Jessie's life
444
00:23:01,423 --> 00:23:03,092
when you guys get married.
445
00:23:03,092 --> 00:23:06,053
Of course, Diane. Of course.
446
00:23:07,346 --> 00:23:09,265
Please. Do you want
to get a cup of coffee?
447
00:23:09,265 --> 00:23:10,766
We can talk more.
448
00:23:10,766 --> 00:23:12,893
[sighs] No.
449
00:23:12,893 --> 00:23:14,728
I think I just wanna go rest.
450
00:23:23,571 --> 00:23:24,655
[Cole] Goodnight, Mommy.
451
00:23:24,655 --> 00:23:25,948
Goodnight, baby.
452
00:23:30,452 --> 00:23:33,205
[cell phone ringing]
453
00:23:39,461 --> 00:23:40,754
Hello.
454
00:23:40,754 --> 00:23:42,548
[man] Is this
Ms. Ashley Baxter?
455
00:23:44,175 --> 00:23:45,718
Yes. Who's calling?
456
00:23:45,718 --> 00:23:49,930
I'm calling from Paris
on behalf off Adrian and Karen.
457
00:23:49,930 --> 00:23:53,934
I have some highly confidential
and sensitive information
458
00:23:53,934 --> 00:23:56,437
I've been legally authorized
to share.
459
00:24:07,823 --> 00:24:10,034
[Elizabeth] Next time
on The Baxters...
460
00:24:10,034 --> 00:24:11,911
[Ryan] I feel like Diane
doesn't like me very much.
461
00:24:11,911 --> 00:24:14,205
She makes me feel
like maybe I'm somewhere
I shouldn't be.
462
00:24:14,205 --> 00:24:15,789
[Lori] We've both
heard each other,
463
00:24:15,789 --> 00:24:19,251
and it's gonna take time
to get over me cheating...
464
00:24:19,251 --> 00:24:20,961
- Lori!
- [Like] Who's that?
465
00:24:20,961 --> 00:24:22,379
A guy I used to date.
466
00:24:22,379 --> 00:24:23,505
I don't wanna be around
this guy.
467
00:24:23,505 --> 00:24:24,673
Then leave.
468
00:24:24,673 --> 00:24:25,758
[cell phone rings]
469
00:24:25,758 --> 00:24:27,468
[man] I'm trying
to reach you again
470
00:24:27,468 --> 00:24:30,387
to discuss details
regarding my client.
471
00:24:30,387 --> 00:24:31,513
[Landon] Voila!
472
00:24:31,513 --> 00:24:32,640
- Think she'll like it?
- I know she will.
473
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,059
So if I fly her back
to propose,
474
00:24:35,059 --> 00:24:36,936
would you think of
coming with me?
475
00:24:36,936 --> 00:24:38,187
Lori?
476
00:24:39,063 --> 00:24:41,273
- You all right?
- [sobs]
477
00:24:42,274 --> 00:24:43,150
[Luke] Mom?
478
00:24:44,193 --> 00:24:45,402
What are you doing here?
479
00:24:47,780 --> 00:24:49,740
[theme music playing]
