Isaac thought you may be able
to do some paperwork to help with that.

Some kind of formal visitation agreement.
93
00:04:47,704 --> 00:04:52,000
As it stands, your child support
is an informal agreement,
94
00:04:52,625 --> 00:04:55,962
and he's not on the birth certificate.
95

- I thought that would be enough.
- Hmm.

00:04:58,172 --> 00:05:00,800
And have you designated a guardian for Bex

something should happen to you?
98
00:05:03,970 --> 00:05:07,515
Oh, I hadn't even thought
about that at all. Uh...

I suppose my parents, Garth...
100
00:05:10,768 --> 00:05:14,564
Well, these are all complicated matters.
Let's start with Bill.
101
00:05:15,273 --> 00:05:20,028
Uh, making this formal
gets rather cumbersome.
102
00:05:20,111 --> 00:05:21,946
Bill would have to take a paternity test
103
00:05:22,030 --> 00:05:24,699
and then be added
to Rebecca's birth certificate.
104
00:05:25,283 --> 00:05:27,410
Isn't that giving him more access?
105
00:05:27,493 --> 00:05:28,619
That's the baseline
106
00:05:28,703 --> 00:05:32,123
by which a... a court-mandated agreement
could be established.
107
00:05:33,041 --> 00:05:35,001
But that process takes time,
108
00:05:35,084 --> 00:05:40,965
and there's a distinct possibility
that no one will be happy in the end.
109
00:05:41,049 --> 00:05:42,675
Including poor Isaac.
110
00:05:43,217 --> 00:05:47,305
He was nearly as shaken up as I was
by Bill popping up unannounced.
111
00:05:47,388 --> 00:05:48,389
If I may,
112
00:05:49,849 --> 00:05:53,186
the law is not necessarily
the answer here.
113
00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:57,315
Often, an honest
and... and direct conversation
114
00:05:57,398 --> 00:05:58,649
is the way to go.
115
00:05:59,776 --> 00:06:01,402
I'd be happy to moderate.
116
00:06:01,486 --> 00:06:04,489
Why is it so hard to move on with my life,

even though I finally know
where I wanna be?

121
00:06:17,418 --> 00:06:21,297

were just watching me

00:09:06,504 --> 00:09:08,965
[pensive music continues]
180
00:09:11,384 --> 00:09:12,385
Good night.
181
00:09:25,481 --> 00:09:26,481
[exhales sharply]
182
00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:29,151
Wally called to let me know
183
00:09:29,235 --> 00:09:32,697
that he has some lovely new gowns in
whenever we're ready to come in.
184
00:09:32,780 --> 00:09:34,699
I thought we were going to Charleston.
185
00:09:34,782 --> 00:09:37,243
Uh, no need to go anywhere.
186
00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:40,121
Ronnie and I
are scrapping the renewal party.
187
00:09:40,621 --> 00:09:42,081
- Dana Sue, why?
- Are you certain?
188
00:09:42,164 --> 00:09:46,002
It's the way it's gotta be. We'll just do
something simple with Pastor June,
189
00:09:46,085 --> 00:09:48,212
us, Annie, you two.
190
00:09:49,088 --> 00:09:52,300
Dana Sue, wha... wha...
It's just we're two weeks out.
191
00:09:52,383 --> 00:09:54,510
The invitations are signed and sealed,
192
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:56,220
and we are ready to deliver!
193
00:09:56,304 --> 00:09:59,515
The money that was set aside
for the party,
194
00:10:00,641 --> 00:10:03,853
Ronnie gave it to Kathy
so she'd leave town.
195
00:10:03,936 --> 00:10:07,565
And no, we did not discuss it first.
Yes, we will work through it.
196
00:10:07,648 --> 00:10:11,027
And no, I did not cancel out of spite.
197
00:10:11,611 --> 00:10:14,697
It just doesn't feel right anymore.
198
00:10:14,780 --> 00:10:19,201
And we aren't broke,
but it all seems flashy and showy now.
199
00:10:21,078 --> 00:10:22,246
How unfortunate.
200
00:10:22,788 --> 00:10:23,956
So sorry.
201
00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:26,834
[Dana Sue] Hmm.
202
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:36,886
What if we held, um, you know,
a scaled-down version of the event?
203
00:10:36,969 --> 00:10:39,388
Something classy, intimate, joyful.
204
00:10:40,181 --> 00:10:42,600
Starting over from scratch in two weeks?
205
00:10:42,683 --> 00:10:44,018
[stammers] I can't.
206
00:10:44,101 --> 00:10:45,101
Well, we can.
207
00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:47,146
You will not have to lift a finger.
208
00:10:47,229 --> 00:10:49,333
Just tell us who must be there,
and we'll do the rest.
209
00:10:49,357 --> 00:10:52,693
There is nothing frivolous
about celebrating love, even on a budget.
210
00:10:55,071 --> 00:10:57,281
You promise you will keep it small.
211
00:10:57,365 --> 00:10:59,950
I don't want any headaches
over this for anyone.
212
00:11:00,034 --> 00:11:01,243
We solemnly swear.
213
00:11:05,289 --> 00:11:06,957
- Okay.
- [laughs excitedly]
214
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:10,920
The five of us, plus Cal, the kids.
215
00:11:11,003 --> 00:11:14,173
Paula, Isaac, and the kitchen crew.
That's it.
216
00:11:14,256 --> 00:11:17,426
Agreed. The inner circle, flowers,
some food platters, and cake.
217
00:11:17,510 --> 00:11:19,095
- [laughs]
- [Dana Sue sighs]
218
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,389
What? What, you don't want a cake?
219
00:11:21,472 --> 00:11:22,598
Of course I want a cake.
220
00:11:23,307 --> 00:11:25,976
Well, then we will find you
the best cake in Serenity.
221
00:11:26,060 --> 00:11:27,311
[Helen groaning quietly]
222
00:11:27,395 --> 00:11:32,400
What? What's the problem?
Oh, this is about the cake maker.
223
00:11:33,567 --> 00:11:36,195
Well, where do things stand with Erik,
with either of you?
224
00:11:36,278 --> 00:11:40,282
Look, invite him if you have to.
It is truly not a problem.
225
00:11:40,366 --> 00:11:42,827
- I actually think it is.
- Not because of me!
226
00:11:42,910 --> 00:11:43,953
No, because of me.
227
00:11:44,829 --> 00:11:49,959
I told him I would give him space,
and then I haven't heard a peep from him.
228
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:54,463
So I'm starting to wonder
if he doesn't wanna be around me either.
229
00:11:54,547 --> 00:11:57,717
Not that I'm saying
he doesn't wanna be around you.
230
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,678
No, I saw him at the farmers market.
He does not wanna be around me.
231
00:12:00,761 --> 00:12:01,679
What happened?
232
00:12:01,762 --> 00:12:04,682
Oh, public awkwardness.
One of the things I do best.
233
00:12:04,765 --> 00:12:06,434
- [Dana Sue, Helen laughing]
- Okay.
234
00:12:06,517 --> 00:12:09,687
Please understand
I am not trying to fix anything,
235
00:12:09,770 --> 00:12:14,817
but do we give him
the option of attending?
236
00:12:14,900 --> 00:12:16,694
- It could facilitate...
- [in singsong] No!
237
00:12:16,777 --> 00:12:18,028
No.
238
00:12:18,112 --> 00:12:20,531
Fine. You've left me no choice.
239
00:12:21,031 --> 00:12:25,870
If I have to personally visit
every bakery in a 50-mile radius
240
00:12:25,953 --> 00:12:28,956
to find a great cake,
I will do that for you, Dana Sue.
241
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:30,082
And for you, Helen.
242
00:12:30,166 --> 00:12:31,250
[Helen laughing]
243
00:12:31,333 --> 00:12:32,752
Aren't we blessed, Dana Sue?
244
00:12:32,835 --> 00:12:34,044
[Dana Sue] Mm. Mm!
245
00:12:35,045 --> 00:12:37,882
My cup runneth over,
but my margarita glass does not, so...
246
00:12:37,965 --> 00:12:39,383
- Mm-hmm.
- [Helen laughing]
247
00:12:39,467 --> 00:12:42,136
There we go. There we go. Okay.
248
00:12:42,219 --> 00:12:45,431
So let's talk about the other food issue,
249
00:12:45,514 --> 00:12:47,683
our presentation
for the interfaith council.
250
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:51,187
I think we're in good shape,
though I wouldn't mind another rehearsal
251
00:12:51,270 --> 00:12:52,354
before the meeting.
252
00:12:52,438 --> 00:12:56,484
I can slip out of the restaurant
not tomorrow but night after.
253
00:12:56,567 --> 00:12:58,778
Sorry. Can't. I'm having dinner.
254
00:12:58,861 --> 00:13:00,446
With June?
255
00:13:00,529 --> 00:13:03,240
With Cal's ex.
256
00:13:03,324 --> 00:13:04,617
- Oh.
- [Maddie] Yeah.
257
00:13:05,534 --> 00:13:07,369
[in gruff voice] Do you need
a consigliere?
258
00:13:07,453 --> 00:13:08,954
[Dana Sue, Maddie laughing]
259
00:13:09,038 --> 00:13:10,331
I will be escorting Cal,
260
00:13:10,414 --> 00:13:14,710
and Vicky will be bringing a player
to be named. It will be super fun.
261
00:13:14,794 --> 00:13:16,921
[guffaws] Keep telling yourself that.
262
00:13:17,004 --> 00:13:18,004
[Maddie] Mm-hmm.
263
00:13:18,631 --> 00:13:20,090
More like telling Cal that.
264
00:13:20,174 --> 00:13:21,091
He's nervous?
265
00:13:21,175 --> 00:13:24,428
He's something.
I can't quite figure it out.
266
00:13:24,512 --> 00:13:26,764
Well, just stay calm and centered,
267
00:13:26,847 --> 00:13:28,807
and focus on how much
you and Cal love each other.
268
00:13:28,849 --> 00:13:30,226
And remember every single word...
269
00:13:30,309 --> 00:13:32,770
- Every word.
- ...because we are gonna want details.
270
00:13:33,687 --> 00:13:36,398
I do not cease giving thanks for you.
271
00:13:36,899 --> 00:13:38,067
Better not.
272
00:13:38,150 --> 00:13:39,276
[all chuckling]
273
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,195
[calm music playing]
274
00:13:41,278 --> 00:13:43,381
[Kyle] We've got
our work cut out for us at Ash Grove.
275
00:13:43,405 --> 00:13:45,365
There's all the equipment
we already talked about.
276
00:13:45,407 --> 00:13:47,167
Plus, we need to address
the drainage issues.
277
00:13:47,243 --> 00:13:49,411
I... I think we need
an adult consultant too.
278
00:13:49,495 --> 00:13:52,456
Someone like Mr. Ramsey.
And we should pay him for his time.
279
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:54,166
This is getting expensive.
280
00:13:54,250 --> 00:13:56,010
Which is why I wanna film
a fundraising video
281
00:13:56,043 --> 00:13:57,044
to share on social media,
282
00:13:57,127 --> 00:14:00,506
unleash our creativity
to get people excited about contributing.
283
00:14:00,589 --> 00:14:03,801
There's so many ways to make
that playground into a fantasy land.
284
00:14:03,884 --> 00:14:07,096
Sophie, you and Willow could create
a framing device at the park for the ad.
285
00:14:07,179 --> 00:14:09,449
Something that gets
kids' and parents' imaginations going.
286
00:14:09,473 --> 00:14:11,851
- The Dream Weavers have you covered.
- [laughs]
287
00:14:11,934 --> 00:14:15,479
I'm all for what we're doing here,
but it... it... it just seems unlikely
288
00:14:15,563 --> 00:14:19,024
we can make any changes to a public park
without a town permit.
289
00:14:20,484 --> 00:14:22,194
I'd be happy to go to the mayor's office.
290
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:24,154
[Ty] I'll go with you.
291
00:14:24,238 --> 00:14:27,324
Acting Mayor Hall isn't gonna hide
behind a closed door like Mayor Lewis,
292
00:14:27,408 --> 00:14:29,702
but, uh, red tape can still be tricky.
293
00:14:29,785 --> 00:14:32,121
I know from watching our mom
get approval on things.
294
00:14:32,204 --> 00:14:33,789
All right. Let's do this!
295
00:14:33,873 --> 00:14:34,957
- Whoo!
- Yes!
296
00:14:36,292 --> 00:14:37,877
Hey, I'm gonna need some of those...
297
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,044
Good ol' Ty.
298
00:14:41,297 --> 00:14:43,465
I'm assuming he doesn't think
I'm well-known enough
299
00:14:43,549 --> 00:14:44,592
to get this done myself.
300
00:14:44,675 --> 00:14:47,970
He's just being a helper.
He always steps up when I need him.
301
00:14:48,053 --> 00:14:51,140
Must be a Townsend thing.
Their mom does so much for Serenity.
302
00:14:51,223 --> 00:14:55,185
Ty is following in her footsteps,
and Kyle is being a leader.
303
00:14:56,103 --> 00:14:58,772
I think Kyle worked harder
than anyone else at VBS.
304
00:14:58,856 --> 00:15:00,107
He's such a good egg.
305
00:15:00,190 --> 00:15:01,901
[intriguing music playing]
306
00:15:03,903 --> 00:15:04,903
[quietly] Bye.
307
00:15:08,365 --> 00:15:11,577
You asked for a fair price
on the sandwich platters,
308
00:15:11,660 --> 00:15:13,746
and that is a fair value.
309
00:15:13,829 --> 00:15:17,917
It... it's... it's marvelous
that you would offer us the food for free,
310
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,336
but... but we... we insist on paying.
311
00:15:20,419 --> 00:15:23,505
No. We won't take a dime.
Not if it's for Dana Sue and Ronnie.
312
00:15:23,589 --> 00:15:26,425
Don't bother forcing the issue.
Our minds are made up.
313
00:15:26,508 --> 00:15:27,927
We do have a budget.
314
00:15:28,010 --> 00:15:31,889
Fine, but the tab's already been paid.
It's been paid for years.
315
00:15:31,972 --> 00:15:33,599
- Because of the deer.
- The deer?
316
00:15:33,682 --> 00:15:35,601
Must have been, what, 15 years ago?
317
00:15:35,684 --> 00:15:40,022
Big old deer broke into our kitchen
and shattered all of our olive jars.
318
00:15:40,105 --> 00:15:42,358
We had a big birthday party that day,
319
00:15:42,441 --> 00:15:45,319
and guess what the birthday boy wanted
on his pizza?
320
00:15:45,402 --> 00:15:47,196
- Extra olives.
- Oh! [chuckles]
321
00:15:47,279 --> 00:15:52,576
So Dana Sue marched over
with 12 jars of olives of all kinds
322
00:15:52,660 --> 00:15:54,495
and would not take a red cent.
323
00:15:55,829 --> 00:15:57,831
In my mind, the interest on that loan
324
00:15:57,915 --> 00:16:00,584
looks a lot like
all the sandwich platters you need.
325
00:16:00,668 --> 00:16:02,169
How do we not know that story?
326
00:16:02,252 --> 00:16:03,879
- Mm.
- [Maddie chuckles]
327
00:16:04,964 --> 00:16:06,715
- We appreciate it.
- [Maddie] Mm-hmm.
328
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:09,385
- And so will they.
- I do have a request though.
329
00:16:10,552 --> 00:16:12,638
Might it be possible for us to attend?
330
00:16:12,721 --> 00:16:15,474
We love Ronnie and Dana Sue so much.
331
00:16:15,557 --> 00:16:17,685
It'd be like seeing
our own kids get married.
332
00:16:17,768 --> 00:16:21,563
I don't think that we're in a position
to add to the guest list.
333
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:23,941
[stammers] It's a very small gathering.
334
00:16:24,024 --> 00:16:25,109
We understand.
335
00:16:25,192 --> 00:16:27,528
[Neville] Crystal clear. No hard feelings.
336
00:16:27,611 --> 00:16:30,906
We just wanted to ask.
Please send our best wishes
337
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:32,783
along with the platters.
338
00:16:32,866 --> 00:16:34,743
We could talk to June
339
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:37,627
about getting extra chairs from
the fellowship hall at Prince of Peace.
340
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:39,540
It's just a gentle expansion...
341
00:16:39,623 --> 00:16:41,226
- [Maddie] Yes.
- ...of the guest list, yeah?
342
00:16:41,250 --> 00:16:44,628
And Dana Sue and Ronnie
will be so pleased to see you, I'm sure!
343
00:16:44,712 --> 00:16:48,257
Delightful. Oh, and I bet
if there's room for Collins,
344
00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:52,386
he'd surely supply the wood for the arbor
at no cost. I'll call him right now.
345
00:16:52,886 --> 00:16:54,430
[calm music playing]
346
00:16:54,513 --> 00:16:55,514
It's only two.
347
00:16:55,597 --> 00:16:56,597
Three.
348
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,767
- [Neville] What else do you need?
- It's fine.
349
00:16:58,851 --> 00:17:03,230
Plenty of people would welcome a chance
to help out and to celebrate.
350
00:17:03,313 --> 00:17:04,313
[Maddie] Uh...
351
00:17:05,107 --> 00:17:06,650
[calm music continues]
352
00:17:07,651 --> 00:17:09,778
[Noreen] Jeremy. Hmm.
353
00:17:09,862 --> 00:17:12,614
I didn't know
that you were the milkman too.
354
00:17:13,115 --> 00:17:14,908
I should sign up for your services.
355
00:17:14,992 --> 00:17:17,578
Haven't you? 'Cause this is for you.
356
00:17:18,078 --> 00:17:19,288
Fresh goat's milk.
357
00:17:20,330 --> 00:17:22,708
Really, you came all the way over
to give me these?
358
00:17:22,791 --> 00:17:23,834
Partly.
359
00:17:25,127 --> 00:17:27,337
The Magnolias invited me to advise on
360
00:17:27,421 --> 00:17:30,466
and maybe join
their food insecurity program.
361
00:17:31,175 --> 00:17:34,678
When Isaac told me you work here too,
I wanted to bring you a gift.
362
00:17:35,929 --> 00:17:37,890
I need to talk to Isaac.
363
00:17:37,973 --> 00:17:40,476
I don't want everyone thinking
I need to be catered to.
364
00:17:40,559 --> 00:17:41,685
Not catering.
365
00:17:42,561 --> 00:17:43,561
Sharing.
366
00:17:44,396 --> 00:17:47,733
And I also have a lead
on some yummy goat's milk yogurt.
367
00:17:48,650 --> 00:17:51,361
Hopefully, I'll have it in stock
at next week's market.
368
00:17:51,945 --> 00:17:54,031
- Maybe you'll come by.
- [Noreen] Maybe.
369
00:17:54,114 --> 00:17:55,574
[gentle music playing]
370
00:17:55,657 --> 00:17:59,620
I'm so sorry,
but the ladies are running late.
371
00:18:00,537 --> 00:18:03,123
They won't be back for a little while.
372
00:18:03,207 --> 00:18:07,795
I'm more than happy to wait
unless I'm disturbing you.
373
00:18:07,878 --> 00:18:11,173
I don't suppose
you would be bothering too much.
374
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,635
You know what I love
about Dana Sue, Helen, and Maddie?
375
00:18:16,011 --> 00:18:18,347
They saw something in me nobody else did.
376
00:18:18,430 --> 00:18:20,682
Them bringing me in to contribute,
377
00:18:20,766 --> 00:18:23,602
it feels like
they're moving me up a level.
378
00:18:24,812 --> 00:18:27,606
They really do know how
to help flowers blossom.
379
00:18:28,816 --> 00:18:30,067
That's why I'm here too.
380
00:18:30,567 --> 00:18:32,778
[gentle music continues]
381
00:18:38,867 --> 00:18:42,204
So after you put the numbers
in ascending order,
382
00:18:42,287 --> 00:18:46,416
you can start to determine
how the number of fish each dolphin eats
383
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:48,502
relates to the aquarium mean.
384
00:18:49,044 --> 00:18:49,920
Understand?
385
00:18:50,003 --> 00:18:51,922
[rock music playing in background]
386
00:18:52,005 --> 00:18:53,005
Um...
387
00:18:53,340 --> 00:18:56,635
[inhales deeply] It seems like
a waste of money to buy me coffee
388
00:18:56,718 --> 00:18:58,345
and not even pay attention.
389
00:18:58,428 --> 00:19:01,223
I'm trying. Math just isn't for me.
390
00:19:02,474 --> 00:19:03,642
Bullcrap.
391
00:19:04,643 --> 00:19:07,604
Baseball is just as much math
as it is a sport.
392
00:19:07,688 --> 00:19:09,898
Clearly, your problem is something else.
393
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:15,028
Ms. Witt.
394
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:17,823
Who is Ms. Witt?
395
00:19:17,906 --> 00:19:19,658
The horrible teacher
I had in middle school
396
00:19:19,741 --> 00:19:21,034
who made me hate math.
397
00:19:21,118 --> 00:19:22,828
Even if I got the answer right,
398
00:19:22,911 --> 00:19:25,080
she'd mark me down
if I got it the wrong way.
399
00:19:25,164 --> 00:19:27,541
Yeah, I've had tough teachers too,
400
00:19:27,624 --> 00:19:30,794
but one bad experience shouldn't be enough
401
00:19:30,878 --> 00:19:33,046
to make you give up
on something altogether.
402
00:19:33,547 --> 00:19:34,882
If I did that,
403
00:19:34,965 --> 00:19:36,842
I would have dismissed you
404
00:19:36,925 --> 00:19:39,803
after you tried
to flirt with me unsuccessfully.
405
00:19:39,887 --> 00:19:40,804
Hmm.
406
00:19:40,888 --> 00:19:41,972
Don't remind me.
407
00:19:42,055 --> 00:19:43,098
[chuckles softly]
408
00:19:43,182 --> 00:19:45,475
[rock music continues in background]
409
00:19:48,687 --> 00:19:50,063
[inhales sharply] Try this.
410
00:19:51,106 --> 00:19:53,275
Music is also math.
411
00:19:53,984 --> 00:19:55,652
The whole point of statistics is
412
00:19:55,736 --> 00:19:58,614
to extrapolate your own melody
from the notes.
413
00:19:58,697 --> 00:20:00,324
And if you don't like the sheet music,
414
00:20:00,407 --> 00:20:03,368
you can gain a better understanding
of the material
415
00:20:03,869 --> 00:20:06,205
by making your own songs with the data.
416
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,041
Cool.
417
00:20:09,791 --> 00:20:11,668
I'm totally down for this... [chuckles]
418
00:20:12,502 --> 00:20:15,172
...as long as we can talk about
actual music too.
419
00:20:15,255 --> 00:20:17,633
My favorite sound. Effort.
420
00:20:18,133 --> 00:20:19,134
You have a deal.
421
00:20:19,218 --> 00:20:21,386
[hopeful music playing]
422
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:22,721
[exhales] Uh...
423
00:20:22,804 --> 00:20:24,306
[keyboard clacking]
424
00:20:24,389 --> 00:20:26,516
It's just us girls tonight, Mommy.
425
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,185
Do you have time for a story?
426
00:20:28,685 --> 00:20:29,685
Always.
427
00:20:30,145 --> 00:20:32,773
Do you have a book that you wanna read?
428
00:20:32,856 --> 00:20:34,775
No, I want a mommy original.
429
00:20:34,858 --> 00:20:35,943
[laughing] Oh!
430
00:20:36,860 --> 00:20:37,945
Okay.
431
00:20:39,071 --> 00:20:40,071
Hmm.
432
00:20:41,365 --> 00:20:42,365
Okay.
433
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:48,038
There once was
a beautiful princess named...
434
00:20:48,121 --> 00:20:49,873
- Katie!
- How'd you know?
435
00:20:51,250 --> 00:20:54,127
Okay. Princess Katie was strong
436
00:20:54,211 --> 00:20:56,088
and smart and beautiful,
437
00:20:56,171 --> 00:20:57,464
with sparkly armor.
438
00:20:58,382 --> 00:21:01,218
And Katie did many important things
for her kingdom,
439
00:21:01,301 --> 00:21:04,763
but the most important thing
440
00:21:04,846 --> 00:21:07,266
was her ability to write magical letters.
441
00:21:08,976 --> 00:21:12,229
Sometimes those letters
would make people happy
442
00:21:12,312 --> 00:21:15,274
or proud or feel special.
443
00:21:16,358 --> 00:21:20,445
But her magic was
that she always knew what to say
444
00:21:20,529 --> 00:21:22,239
to heal people's hearts.
445
00:21:22,322 --> 00:21:23,156
[Katie chuckles]
446
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,075
Whenever you heal people's hearts,
447
00:21:25,158 --> 00:21:28,745
they can slay dragons or build castles
448
00:21:28,829 --> 00:21:30,038
or bake brownies.
449
00:21:30,122 --> 00:21:35,085
They could do whatever they needed to do
to make their kingdom a better place.
450
00:21:37,754 --> 00:21:38,754
What...
451
00:21:39,631 --> 00:21:41,633
I have to write more letters.
452
00:21:42,134 --> 00:21:45,679
Hey, it's bedtime.
You can write letters tomorrow.
453
00:21:45,762 --> 00:21:46,888
Aw!
454
00:21:47,389 --> 00:21:49,057
Will you write them with me?
455
00:21:49,683 --> 00:21:51,143
That could be fun.
456
00:21:51,226 --> 00:21:53,437
- [Katie exhales excitedly]
- [Maddie chuckles]
457
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,105
[gentle music playing]
458
00:21:55,188 --> 00:21:56,815
- Love you.
- Love you.
459
00:21:56,898 --> 00:21:58,233
- Good night.
- Good night.
460
00:22:04,239 --> 00:22:06,908
This would be such a good site
for LARPing.
461
00:22:06,992 --> 00:22:08,952
Maybe, we can make an Elven forest?
462
00:22:09,036 --> 00:22:10,329
Or a fairy village.
463
00:22:10,412 --> 00:22:12,998
We could bring in toadstools
and fairy lights.
464
00:22:13,081 --> 00:22:15,125
- I could wear butterfly wings.
- [Sophie chuckles]
465
00:22:15,709 --> 00:22:20,422
So... acting Mayor Hall
has officially approved the initiative.
466
00:22:20,505 --> 00:22:21,381
[both laugh]
467
00:22:21,465 --> 00:22:24,384
Amazing! Thank you both so much
for getting involved.
468
00:22:24,468 --> 00:22:25,677
It's gonna be great.
469
00:22:25,761 --> 00:22:27,179
- Fun too.
- Mm-hmm.
470
00:22:27,262 --> 00:22:31,266
Hey, Kyle, come check out this slide.
We wanna mod into a crystal waterfall.
471
00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:32,726
Oh, uh, be right back.
472
00:22:35,687 --> 00:22:37,147
You were really smooth today.
473
00:22:37,230 --> 00:22:39,649
- [Kyle speaking indistinctly]
- Thanks.
474
00:22:39,733 --> 00:22:41,109
Eh, so were you.
475
00:22:41,193 --> 00:22:44,946
Yeah, the only reason I wasn't nervous
when he asked about supplies
476
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:46,615
was because you stayed so calm.
477
00:22:47,991 --> 00:22:49,201
What's your secret?
478
00:22:49,284 --> 00:22:50,284
My mom.
479
00:22:51,036 --> 00:22:54,790
She's got this thing about
clear and honest communication.
480
00:22:55,499 --> 00:22:57,751
I'm still getting the hang of it,
but she says
481
00:22:58,251 --> 00:23:01,338
when you have nothing to hide,
you got nothing to fear.
482
00:23:01,421 --> 00:23:04,049
- I'll jot that one down.
- [chuckles]
483
00:23:04,132 --> 00:23:08,804
I admit I've got a lot to learn
about... forthrightness. [chuckles]
484
00:23:08,887 --> 00:23:09,887
Are you kidding?
485
00:23:10,555 --> 00:23:12,891
You're the clearest communicator I know.
486
00:23:12,974 --> 00:23:14,226
Not always.
487
00:23:15,477 --> 00:23:17,187
[poignant music playing]
488
00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:19,272
Not when it counted. Not with us.
489
00:23:22,067 --> 00:23:23,067
I messed up.
490
00:23:25,362 --> 00:23:26,488
When we broke up,
491
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,868
I didn't get that
you were looking for resolution,
492
00:23:33,453 --> 00:23:34,913
and I just pushed you away.
493
00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:39,751
I get it now.
494
00:23:42,295 --> 00:23:45,215
So, belatedly, I'm... I'm sorry for that.
495
00:23:45,799 --> 00:23:48,176
[poignant music continues]
496
00:23:51,555 --> 00:23:55,892
That might actually mean more to me now
than it would have then.
497
00:23:58,937 --> 00:24:01,731
- Cool.
- [Sophie] Whee!
498
00:24:07,571 --> 00:24:09,865
[indistinct chattering]
499
00:24:09,948 --> 00:24:12,868
[calm piano music playing in background]
500
00:24:15,871 --> 00:24:17,247
[Maddie exhales deeply]
501
00:24:22,836 --> 00:24:23,837
That's Vicky.
502
00:24:27,090 --> 00:24:28,091
Calvin.
503
00:24:28,175 --> 00:24:30,010
- Calvin?
- Huh. Please.
504
00:24:30,093 --> 00:24:31,845
- [gasps excitedly]
- This is Maddie.
505
00:24:31,928 --> 00:24:33,430
- Oh. [chuckles]
- Oh. [chuckles]
506
00:24:33,513 --> 00:24:34,598
Hi.
507
00:24:34,681 --> 00:24:35,932
- [chuckles]
- [Vicky] Hmm.
508
00:24:36,016 --> 00:24:40,270
[clears throat] Oh, what a beautiful ring.
509
00:24:40,896 --> 00:24:41,896
That's a new one.
510
00:24:42,355 --> 00:24:44,566
- I keep trading up.
- [chuckles]
511
00:24:44,649 --> 00:24:47,194
Well, that must be the special reason
that you wanted to meet.
512
00:24:47,277 --> 00:24:49,321
Well, it didn't feel right
making our final plans
513
00:24:49,404 --> 00:24:51,781
and moving forward
without Calvin's blessing.
514
00:24:51,865 --> 00:24:55,994
- Why would you need my blessing?
- We're in the Cal-Zone! [grunts]
515
00:24:56,495 --> 00:24:57,412
- Drew?
- [Vicky chuckles]
516
00:24:57,496 --> 00:25:00,749
Uh... [stammers] Wow, man.
I almost didn't recognize you.
517
00:25:01,458 --> 00:25:03,126
Vicky thought the beard was too scratchy.
518
00:25:03,210 --> 00:25:04,836
- Good to see you, buddy.
- Huh.
519
00:25:05,545 --> 00:25:07,422
We have so much catching up to do.
520
00:25:07,923 --> 00:25:08,798
To the table.
521
00:25:08,882 --> 00:25:09,882
Let's go.
522
00:25:13,136 --> 00:25:14,554
Drew, as in...
523
00:25:14,638 --> 00:25:16,806
Yep, the guy from the infamous fight.
524
00:25:17,307 --> 00:25:20,227
But now that he has no beard,
you can see, no scars.
525
00:25:20,810 --> 00:25:23,730
Has he always shared a resemblance?
526
00:25:24,314 --> 00:25:25,482
I never saw it.
527
00:25:28,276 --> 00:25:30,403
Come on. Let's get this over with.
528
00:25:39,538 --> 00:25:41,498
[gentle music playing]
529
00:25:41,581 --> 00:25:42,581
Lily?
530
00:25:48,630 --> 00:25:50,215
The carnations were from you?
531
00:25:50,298 --> 00:25:53,260
All I wanted was for you to know
that somebody thinks you're terrific.
532
00:25:53,343 --> 00:25:56,388
I guess I got carried away
and made a mess.
533
00:25:57,097 --> 00:25:59,724
But you... you took me to see Nellie.
534
00:25:59,808 --> 00:26:02,060
I didn't realize
you had something with her.
535
00:26:02,561 --> 00:26:03,761
When I said I would drive you,
536
00:26:03,812 --> 00:26:05,897
I had no idea
what I was getting myself into.
537
00:26:07,190 --> 00:26:09,651
After, I was too embarrassed
to say anything.
538
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:14,739
[exhales] Wow.
539
00:26:14,823 --> 00:26:15,824
Are you mad at me?
540
00:26:16,324 --> 00:26:18,410
- No. No. I... I think it's nice.
- [chuckles]
541
00:26:18,493 --> 00:26:21,454
Really nice.
I... I'm just trying to understand.
542
00:26:23,290 --> 00:26:24,290
Uh, can we?
543
00:26:24,332 --> 00:26:25,332
[Lily] Mm.
544
00:26:26,585 --> 00:26:28,128
[gentle music continues]
545
00:26:28,211 --> 00:26:31,464
So, you... you just wanted me to know
546
00:26:32,257 --> 00:26:34,551
someone thinks I'm terrific?
547
00:26:37,679 --> 00:26:39,014
When we first moved here,
548
00:26:39,097 --> 00:26:42,475
my sister told me
that I had to act a certain way,
549
00:26:42,559 --> 00:26:46,271
dress a certain way
to make the right impression,
550
00:26:46,771 --> 00:26:48,982
but I've been watching you since VBS,
551
00:26:49,065 --> 00:26:51,610
and you are... you. [chuckles]
552
00:26:52,402 --> 00:26:54,654
Honest. Authentic.
553
00:26:55,864 --> 00:26:57,073
Unique.
554
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,369
You make me want to try to be the same.
555
00:27:02,871 --> 00:27:06,249
You also make me
want to take you out for pizza,
556
00:27:06,916 --> 00:27:09,628
just the two of us, if you're interested.
557
00:27:10,211 --> 00:27:12,714
[stammers] Babysitting right now.
558
00:27:12,797 --> 00:27:16,092
Uh, of course. Not tonight, but soon?
559
00:27:16,176 --> 00:27:17,802
[hopeful music playing]
560
00:27:17,886 --> 00:27:19,804
That would be awesome. [chuckles]
561
00:27:19,888 --> 00:27:21,556
[chuckles] Cool.
562
00:27:24,351 --> 00:27:27,562
So, Calvin, I've been doing
a little homework on your new life.
563
00:27:28,063 --> 00:27:30,857
- Oh, you really didn't have to do that.
- [Vicky] No, it was fun.
564
00:27:30,940 --> 00:27:33,902
I saw that you're
a high school coach... [chuckles]
565
00:27:34,569 --> 00:27:36,071
...and you lost State.
566
00:27:36,154 --> 00:27:37,614
Well, that's old news.
567
00:27:38,365 --> 00:27:39,574
I'm a carpenter now,
568
00:27:40,325 --> 00:27:41,326
and I love it.
569
00:27:41,409 --> 00:27:44,120
[Maddie] He's remodeling a friend's house.
It's gorgeous.
570
00:27:44,204 --> 00:27:46,331
And he's part owner of a restaurant.
571
00:27:46,831 --> 00:27:48,375
Sounds like a good living to me.
572
00:27:48,458 --> 00:27:50,335
We're already planning
for Drew's retirement,
573
00:27:50,418 --> 00:27:53,296
even though it's years and years
from now. Right, Drew?
574
00:27:53,380 --> 00:27:56,460
Vicky takes care of all my investments.
That way, whenever I leave the game...
575
00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:58,259
Which he'll do on his own terms.
576
00:27:58,343 --> 00:28:03,264
I hope, but Vicky's gonna make sure
that we can travel, spend time together,
577
00:28:03,348 --> 00:28:04,724
you know, have a good time.
578
00:28:04,808 --> 00:28:07,852
- Lucky you.
- Retiring is a big change.
579
00:28:08,478 --> 00:28:10,980
What's gonna feed your soul
when it's time to move on?
580
00:28:12,065 --> 00:28:13,065
I don't follow.
581
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,318
Mm, game goes on without us,
582
00:28:15,819 --> 00:28:20,699
but some people can't handle
being left behind by their first love.
583
00:28:21,324 --> 00:28:24,452
What's your plan
for when the attention you were getting
584
00:28:24,953 --> 00:28:26,496
moves on to a new player?
585
00:28:27,122 --> 00:28:29,833
[chuckling] Brother,
I have been blocking that out.
586
00:28:29,916 --> 00:28:31,292
I can't even.
587
00:28:31,918 --> 00:28:32,794
[inhales sharply]
588
00:28:32,877 --> 00:28:35,880
But you're right.
It's always in the back of my mind.
589
00:28:35,964 --> 00:28:37,924
Gonna be impossible
to face life off the diamond.
590
00:28:38,007 --> 00:28:39,384
[pensive music playing]
591
00:28:39,467 --> 00:28:40,467
Hmm.
592
00:28:42,637 --> 00:28:43,888
I need to freshen up.
593
00:28:53,314 --> 00:28:54,190
[Dana Sue] Ooh.
594
00:28:54,274 --> 00:28:57,402
They don't have to be perfect.
No one will look as closely as you do.
595
00:28:57,902 --> 00:29:02,532
There's also no need to rush,
other than you're having phone withdrawal.
596
00:29:04,826 --> 00:29:06,828
[Annie breathes deeply]
597
00:29:08,455 --> 00:29:10,623
I have so much pride in you, Annie.
598
00:29:11,207 --> 00:29:13,084
You're an incredible daughter
599
00:29:13,793 --> 00:29:15,837
and an extraordinary young woman.
600
00:29:17,630 --> 00:29:20,049
But I have to balance my belief in you
601
00:29:20,133 --> 00:29:23,344
against all the things
you still need to learn.
602
00:29:26,639 --> 00:29:29,017
Warden is an awful role to have to play.
603
00:29:30,143 --> 00:29:31,227
But I'm grateful.
604
00:29:32,187 --> 00:29:35,940
I've had a lot of time
to think about consequences,
605
00:29:36,024 --> 00:29:39,444
about what I want in a relationship,
606
00:29:39,527 --> 00:29:41,780
and the kind of man I want by my side.
607
00:29:43,656 --> 00:29:44,908
About you and Daddy.
608
00:29:45,825 --> 00:29:47,702
[poignant music playing]
609
00:29:47,786 --> 00:29:49,954
I don't see the connection.
610
00:29:51,372 --> 00:29:52,540
You two had problems,
611
00:29:52,624 --> 00:29:56,836
but you came back together
when you could have run away.
612
00:29:58,004 --> 00:29:59,672
I'm happy you're proud of me.
613
00:30:00,340 --> 00:30:01,800
I'm proud of you too.
614
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:04,552
[Dana Sue] Thank you for listening
615
00:30:04,636 --> 00:30:05,804
and learning.
616
00:30:08,264 --> 00:30:10,225
I want a love like yours someday.
617
00:30:11,559 --> 00:30:13,937
[poignant music continues]
618
00:30:17,065 --> 00:30:18,942
- [water running]
- [perfume squirting]
619
00:30:19,651 --> 00:30:20,693
[water shuts off]
620
00:30:24,864 --> 00:30:26,282
Are you waiting for me?
621
00:30:28,952 --> 00:30:30,829
I wanted to speak with you privately
622
00:30:31,496 --> 00:30:32,539
to apologize.
623
00:30:33,164 --> 00:30:33,998
Really?
624
00:30:34,082 --> 00:30:36,960
Woman to woman.
You see, I wanted to catch up with Calvin,
625
00:30:37,043 --> 00:30:40,296
but I didn't mean to upset either of you
with reminders that he washed out
626
00:30:40,380 --> 00:30:42,549
and Drew has
so many good years left in him.
627
00:30:43,049 --> 00:30:46,761
I had no idea it would sound so pitiful
once spoken out loud.
628
00:30:46,845 --> 00:30:50,390
You needn't apologize... about that.
629
00:30:51,307 --> 00:30:53,935
- What are you implying?
- I'm not implying anything.
630
00:30:54,435 --> 00:30:58,106
I'm coming right out and saying
that this dinner could have been an email.
631
00:30:58,189 --> 00:31:01,067
Though I do realize
that that course of action
632
00:31:01,150 --> 00:31:04,112
may have deprived Cal and me
of witnessing the spectacle
633
00:31:04,195 --> 00:31:06,197
of Drew being made over in Cal's image.
634
00:31:06,281 --> 00:31:08,116
[scoffs] That's absolutely laughable.
635
00:31:09,284 --> 00:31:11,202
I knew Calvin was insecure.
636
00:31:11,286 --> 00:31:13,705
Makes sense he'd bunk up
with an insecure girl.
637
00:31:13,788 --> 00:31:14,788
Darlin',
638
00:31:15,790 --> 00:31:20,086
if there is one thing
in which I am completely secure,
639
00:31:20,795 --> 00:31:22,088
it is my love with Cal.
640
00:31:23,256 --> 00:31:24,966
You need to understand something.
641
00:31:25,967 --> 00:31:28,970
The few times that your name has come up,
642
00:31:29,053 --> 00:31:32,599
Cal has been discreet and respectful.
643
00:31:32,682 --> 00:31:33,808
[solemn music playing]
644
00:31:33,892 --> 00:31:38,980
So if you came here to determine
what power you still hold over him,
645
00:31:39,606 --> 00:31:43,318
well, I could have saved you the drive
and the overpriced meal.
646
00:31:44,235 --> 00:31:46,487
And if you came to my town
looking for drama,
647
00:31:46,571 --> 00:31:48,823
I will direct you
to the local movie theater.
648
00:31:49,866 --> 00:31:51,910
Cal is over you.
649
00:31:52,535 --> 00:31:55,580
You need to get over him and yourself.
650
00:31:56,497 --> 00:31:57,999
[solemn music continues]
651
00:31:58,082 --> 00:31:59,125
[exhales sharply]
652
00:32:00,084 --> 00:32:03,004
Glad to see you doing so well.
Maybe I can give you a ring
653
00:32:03,087 --> 00:32:05,548
and get a few pointers
when the water boils over.
654
00:32:05,632 --> 00:32:07,967
Nah, you're on your own,
but I do wish you the best.
655
00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:09,093
We both do.
656
00:32:10,595 --> 00:32:11,763
I'm happy for you, Vicky,
657
00:32:11,846 --> 00:32:14,390
and I wish for you and Drew
to be happy together.
658
00:32:14,474 --> 00:32:16,601
Maybe even as happy as we are.
659
00:32:16,684 --> 00:32:17,684
[Maddie chuckles]
660
00:32:18,937 --> 00:32:19,937
[kissing]
661
00:32:21,397 --> 00:32:24,150
I'm tired, Drew.
Take me back to our suite?
662
00:32:24,651 --> 00:32:26,194
Sure thing. Night, guys.
663
00:32:26,694 --> 00:32:29,155
[calm piano music playing in background]
664
00:32:29,238 --> 00:32:30,238
[door opens]
665
00:32:34,369 --> 00:32:35,369
[door closes]
666
00:32:35,411 --> 00:32:36,537
That went well.
667
00:32:36,621 --> 00:32:37,705
Oh, I was a little worried
668
00:32:37,789 --> 00:32:40,249
when you and Vicky
got up from the table at the same time.
669
00:32:40,333 --> 00:32:42,251
But whatever you said in there
cooled her down.
670
00:32:42,335 --> 00:32:44,921
When she came back,
she looked like she'd seen a ghost.
671
00:32:45,004 --> 00:32:47,924
Well, it's Vicky's choice to be haunted.
672
00:32:48,716 --> 00:32:52,011
Blessed are those
who let go of their pasts
673
00:32:52,095 --> 00:32:54,639
to embrace the joy of their futures.
674
00:32:55,139 --> 00:32:57,809
I do not have the words
for how much I love you.
675
00:32:57,892 --> 00:32:59,310
[Maddie chuckles softly]
676
00:32:59,394 --> 00:33:01,854
[gentle music playing]
677
00:33:10,989 --> 00:33:14,909
The Serenity Serves initiative
seeks to synthesize and support
678
00:33:14,993 --> 00:33:18,746
the various food service programs
expertly run by your congregations.
679
00:33:18,830 --> 00:33:21,541
Through this initiative,
the Magnolia Community Foundation
680
00:33:21,624 --> 00:33:26,337
aims to offer
nutritious, low-cost, tasty meals
681
00:33:26,421 --> 00:33:30,174
that can be easily distributed
then frozen and quickly reheated.
682
00:33:30,258 --> 00:33:32,719
We have two main objectives.
683
00:33:32,802 --> 00:33:34,554
First, to extend outreach
684
00:33:34,637 --> 00:33:37,807
to those who may not already be
in our communities.
685
00:33:37,890 --> 00:33:39,726
And second, to serve others
686
00:33:39,809 --> 00:33:44,522
with the belief that quality of food
increases quality of life.
687
00:33:44,605 --> 00:33:46,816
Essentially, your plan
would fill in the gaps
688
00:33:46,899 --> 00:33:49,152
of the existing food programs in Serenity.
689
00:33:49,235 --> 00:33:51,195
Well, absolutely, Rabbi Berton.
690
00:33:51,279 --> 00:33:55,616
[stammers] We're not seeking to supplant
but to supplement.
691
00:33:55,700 --> 00:34:00,121
We want everyone in this community
to know that they have someone to turn to
692
00:34:00,204 --> 00:34:05,084
regardless of where they worship
or if they worship.
693
00:34:05,168 --> 00:34:07,211
So we have a pantry at First Baptist.
694
00:34:07,295 --> 00:34:12,425
The mosque delivers goods to elders,
and St. Cecilia runs seasonal food drives.
695
00:34:12,508 --> 00:34:15,136
Now could your initiative
utilize these programs?
696
00:34:15,636 --> 00:34:19,599
Pastor Mosby, we look forward
to sorting it all out together.
697
00:34:21,350 --> 00:34:24,479
I believe we have enough information
698
00:34:24,562 --> 00:34:26,147
to proceed with the vote.
699
00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:27,230
Seconded.
700
00:34:27,273 --> 00:34:28,524
All in favor.
701
00:34:33,237 --> 00:34:34,489
And we are adjourned.
702
00:34:34,572 --> 00:34:37,241
[Maddie, Dana Sue, Helen chuckling]
703
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:40,787
[Mosby] Ladies, much appreciated.
704
00:34:41,496 --> 00:34:43,998
I hope this won't be
the only project you bring to us.
705
00:34:44,082 --> 00:34:45,083
Thank you, Pastor.
706
00:34:45,166 --> 00:34:47,251
My pleasure. Good job. Enjoy your day.
707
00:34:47,335 --> 00:34:49,045
- Thank you.
- [happy music playing]
708
00:34:49,128 --> 00:34:50,129
[Dana Sue chuckles]
709
00:34:50,213 --> 00:34:52,298
- [in singsong] Congratulations!
- Oh!
710
00:34:52,381 --> 00:34:54,592
Thanks so much
for getting us on the agenda.
711
00:34:54,675 --> 00:34:56,427
And for the coaching beforehand.
712
00:34:56,511 --> 00:35:00,056
Y'all aren't nearly as intimidating
as I expected you to be.
713
00:35:00,139 --> 00:35:02,475
But how intimidating
will that workload be?
714
00:35:02,558 --> 00:35:04,310
This won't be work. It'll be joy.
715
00:35:04,393 --> 00:35:05,520
Amen to that.
716
00:35:06,270 --> 00:35:07,772
- [Dana Sue chuckles]
- Amen.
717
00:35:07,855 --> 00:35:11,442
Miss Emily checked
all the desks and backpacks.
718
00:35:11,526 --> 00:35:14,070
Nobody had Aiden's lunch box,
719
00:35:14,153 --> 00:35:17,448
and Aiden started to cry
because he wanted a Star Crunch.
720
00:35:17,532 --> 00:35:18,908
I said I'd give him mine.
721
00:35:19,700 --> 00:35:22,078
[chuckling] Stay in your chair, Katydid.
722
00:35:22,161 --> 00:35:25,540
But then they found his lunch box
in the bathroom,
723
00:35:25,623 --> 00:35:28,251
and he already ate his Star Crunch.
724
00:35:28,334 --> 00:35:30,503
[Kyle, Ty, Bill exclaim, chuckle]
725
00:35:30,586 --> 00:35:32,755
Settle down and eat your food now.
726
00:35:32,839 --> 00:35:34,006
[chuckling]
727
00:35:36,008 --> 00:35:38,302
And, Kyle, what you got going on?
728
00:35:39,095 --> 00:35:40,429
I'm dating an older woman.
729
00:35:41,556 --> 00:35:43,558
Well, that's very...
730
00:35:43,641 --> 00:35:44,559
[Ty] Who?
731
00:35:44,642 --> 00:35:45,726
Lily.
732
00:35:45,810 --> 00:35:48,479
- Wow! Um, since when?
- [chuckling]
733
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,816
We're, uh, planning our first date.
734
00:35:52,859 --> 00:35:55,570
- [Kyle, Ty chuckle]
- [chuckles] Well, Kyle, who's Lily?
735
00:35:55,653 --> 00:35:56,779
A girl at school.
736
00:35:56,863 --> 00:35:59,574
[mellow music playing in background]
737
00:35:59,657 --> 00:36:01,617
And who you got your eye on?
738
00:36:01,701 --> 00:36:02,702
Nobody.
739
00:36:03,327 --> 00:36:05,037
Busy with school, woodworking,
740
00:36:05,121 --> 00:36:08,541
and helping Kyle
renovate Ash Grove playground.
741
00:36:09,667 --> 00:36:12,753
Renovating? Well, it's not that old.
742
00:36:12,837 --> 00:36:14,672
I took Katie there not long ago,
743
00:36:14,755 --> 00:36:16,340
and we had a grand old time
744
00:36:16,883 --> 00:36:19,427
until she twisted herself up
in the swing so many times
745
00:36:19,510 --> 00:36:21,470
she got dizzy and nearly puked.
746
00:36:21,554 --> 00:36:24,056
Not a dinner table word, Daddy.
747
00:36:24,849 --> 00:36:26,559
That was me, Dad.
748
00:36:27,143 --> 00:36:29,437
On the swing in, like, fifth grade.
749
00:36:29,937 --> 00:36:32,398
No, that couldn't have been. [chuckles]
750
00:36:33,524 --> 00:36:36,068
So we should talk to Mr. Ramsey
sooner rather than later
751
00:36:36,152 --> 00:36:38,487
about the order he thinks
we should do things in.
752
00:36:38,571 --> 00:36:39,947
Well, fundraising first.
753
00:36:40,031 --> 00:36:42,617
We need a clear budget
so we can spend responsibly.
754
00:36:43,534 --> 00:36:45,119
Am I proud of y'all.
755
00:36:46,037 --> 00:36:47,037
I'm...
756
00:36:47,079 --> 00:36:48,706
I'll shut up a minute.
757
00:36:48,789 --> 00:36:51,500
Just marveling how fast you're growing up.
758
00:36:52,001 --> 00:36:55,213
Instead of mulch,
can we get that shredded rubber
759
00:36:55,296 --> 00:36:57,798
that's good for the planet
but also bouncy?
760
00:36:58,507 --> 00:37:00,176
That's a tough price point, Katie.
761
00:37:00,259 --> 00:37:01,802
You could just say no.
762
00:37:01,886 --> 00:37:03,346
- Oh!
- Okay.
763
00:37:03,429 --> 00:37:04,805
[Ty, Kyle laughing]
764
00:37:04,889 --> 00:37:07,141
[Kyle] Maybe a business in town
will donate.
765
00:37:08,017 --> 00:37:10,519
[pensive music playing]
766
00:37:10,603 --> 00:37:14,440
Mm, my sisters, a drink, desserts.
All is right in the world.
767
00:37:14,523 --> 00:37:19,153
Hmm. Yes, we are back and thriving.
768
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:22,865
The Serenity Serves initiative
is promising,
769
00:37:22,949 --> 00:37:26,452
and the vow renewal planning
is coming along nicely too.
770
00:37:26,535 --> 00:37:29,038
If only we could find a decent cake.
771
00:37:29,622 --> 00:37:31,332
I know what you're gonna say.
772
00:37:31,415 --> 00:37:33,668
No, you don't.
I am not gonna force either one of you
773
00:37:33,751 --> 00:37:35,836
to talk about Erik
because I respect your wishes.
774
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,382
I appreciate that,
and I know Dana Sue does too.
775
00:37:39,465 --> 00:37:44,720
All right? So other than the cake,
how are things going with my mini-renewal?
776
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:46,680
[Helen] Mm.
777
00:37:47,556 --> 00:37:48,641
Fine.
778
00:37:48,724 --> 00:37:50,184
Well, one could say great.
779
00:37:50,685 --> 00:37:52,728
Oh dear Lord in heaven. What's wrong?
780
00:37:53,604 --> 00:37:57,692
I am quite concerned, Dana Sue,
that you assume something's wrong.
781
00:37:57,775 --> 00:37:59,443
[Dana Sue] And I'd be right to.
782
00:37:59,527 --> 00:38:01,487
Little Miss Maddie here
is staring at the bar top,
783
00:38:01,529 --> 00:38:02,729
and it's not that captivating.
784
00:38:02,780 --> 00:38:07,576
And you are doing that I'm-a-lawyer,
don't-question-me thing with your voice.
785
00:38:07,660 --> 00:38:10,204
- I was trying to be subtle.
- It's a tell. Honestly.
786
00:38:10,288 --> 00:38:12,540
- It is not.
- Would you two, please?
787
00:38:12,623 --> 00:38:14,834
- It's not so many.
- Excuse me?
788
00:38:14,917 --> 00:38:16,544
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
789
00:38:16,627 --> 00:38:22,425
Well, the, um... the guest list
has... it's just crept up a skosh.
790
00:38:22,508 --> 00:38:24,677
- Yeah. More like a smidge.
- Yeah.
791
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,053
Define your terms.
792
00:38:26,137 --> 00:38:28,514
- Around 50 or 60 so far.
- What?
793
00:38:28,597 --> 00:38:30,349
Eh! Calm down.
794
00:38:30,433 --> 00:38:32,560
No. No!
795
00:38:32,643 --> 00:38:35,730
I told you the budget is nonnegotiable.
796
00:38:36,522 --> 00:38:39,042
Everyone's gonna get half a beer
and three peanuts at this rate.
797
00:38:39,066 --> 00:38:41,610
- Hey. The budget maintains its figure.
- Mm.
798
00:38:41,694 --> 00:38:44,030
Everyone who's coming
insists on bringing something.
799
00:38:44,113 --> 00:38:47,158
[stammers] Rather everyone
who's bringing something
800
00:38:47,241 --> 00:38:49,285
insists on coming, uh, but...
801
00:38:49,368 --> 00:38:52,246
And we have a new venue
which also helps with the budget.
802
00:38:52,330 --> 00:38:55,666
Oh! Well, how is that possible
since the lawn at the spa is free?
803
00:38:55,750 --> 00:38:59,003
So is Axel and Rhiannon's barn
at the co-op.
804
00:38:59,086 --> 00:39:02,256
A gift to you and Ronnie from Jeremy.
805
00:39:02,340 --> 00:39:04,383
- [Helen] Mm-mm! [chuckles]
- Yeah.
806
00:39:04,467 --> 00:39:07,970
Ladies, thank you so much
for allowing me to stop by.
807
00:39:08,054 --> 00:39:09,805
Of course. Helen Decatur.
808
00:39:09,889 --> 00:39:13,309
Charles Perkins. Peggy and I
went to journalism school together.
809
00:39:13,893 --> 00:39:17,813
Dana Sue Sullivan. It's always nice
to meet one of Peggy's old friends.
810
00:39:17,897 --> 00:39:20,066
I prefer "close friend."
811
00:39:21,525 --> 00:39:22,693
[Maddie] Uh, Maddie Townsend.
812
00:39:22,777 --> 00:39:26,697
Charles is a very successful
investigative journalist.
813
00:39:26,781 --> 00:39:28,541
You should've brought your book
to show them.
814
00:39:28,574 --> 00:39:29,575
Oh, which one?
815
00:39:30,284 --> 00:39:31,827
[both laughing]
816
00:39:31,911 --> 00:39:35,414
[Peggy] Um, I asked Charles
to come help me investigate.
817
00:39:35,498 --> 00:39:40,127
I am so tired of people getting up
and walking away from their responsibility
818
00:39:40,211 --> 00:39:42,088
just because it's convenient for them.
819
00:39:42,171 --> 00:39:43,506
Peggy is an ideal citizen.
820
00:39:44,006 --> 00:39:47,009
That's likely the highest compliment
someone like me can pay.
821
00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:50,888
Thank you, Charles,
but this isn't about me.
822
00:39:51,514 --> 00:39:55,434
I wanted you to meet these ladies
because they are the community leaders
823
00:39:55,518 --> 00:39:57,853
that started the pushback
against bad governance.
824
00:39:57,937 --> 00:40:00,147
I'm not used to being called
a community leader.
825
00:40:00,231 --> 00:40:03,025
I just thought Trent was being
a petty, vengeful twerp.
826
00:40:03,109 --> 00:40:04,443
- [laughing]
- [laughs] Yeah.
827
00:40:04,527 --> 00:40:07,279
You'll be a fun interview.
Please have my card.
828
00:40:07,363 --> 00:40:10,616
We won't take up any more of your time.
Thank you again.
829
00:40:10,699 --> 00:40:13,786
I'm very sorry
to interrupt your dessert bar.
830
00:40:14,495 --> 00:40:16,914
Oh, uh, we are planning my vow renewal.
831
00:40:16,997 --> 00:40:18,499
Oh, congratulations!
832
00:40:18,582 --> 00:40:22,670
Peggy, you should come, and Charles.
Saturday. We'll send you an invitation.
833
00:40:23,504 --> 00:40:24,505
It's a date.
834
00:40:25,881 --> 00:40:27,401
- [Peggy chuckles]
- [Dana Sue] Goodbye.
835
00:40:27,425 --> 00:40:29,844
- All right, ladies. [chuckles]
- Goodbye, Charles. Hmm.
836
00:40:29,927 --> 00:40:32,596
- [Dana Sue] Oh!
- What happened to your "small event"?
837
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,434
You convinced me
a couple more friends won't hurt anything.
838
00:40:36,517 --> 00:40:38,602
- It's a big barn, right?
- [Helen chuckles]
839
00:40:38,686 --> 00:40:41,147
- Any other friends we should invite?
- Oh, enough!
840
00:40:41,230 --> 00:40:44,275
[chuckles] It will all turn out
the way that it is meant to.
841
00:40:44,358 --> 00:40:45,359
[Helen] Hmm.
842
00:40:45,443 --> 00:40:47,403
[energetic country music playing]
843
00:40:47,987 --> 00:40:51,031
You can sit on the bed.
I usually sit on the floor for homework.
844
00:40:51,532 --> 00:40:53,367
With that sweet desk right there?
845
00:40:53,451 --> 00:40:54,451
[Annie scoffs]
846
00:40:58,289 --> 00:40:59,915
Is that what I think it is?
847
00:40:59,999 --> 00:41:00,833
[chuckles]
848
00:41:00,916 --> 00:41:02,793
A phone? Yeah.
849
00:41:02,877 --> 00:41:06,172
Uh, Ty made it for me when I got grounded.
850
00:41:06,255 --> 00:41:07,255
[chuckles softly]
851
00:41:07,923 --> 00:41:08,923
You were right.
852
00:41:10,217 --> 00:41:11,218
He is a good one.
853
00:41:11,302 --> 00:41:13,471
[gentle music playing]
854
00:41:13,554 --> 00:41:15,181
The good ones learn and change.
855
00:41:19,310 --> 00:41:21,190
CeCe can text me
when she's done with the forms.
856
00:41:21,228 --> 00:41:23,582
I'll come by and pick them up
and get 'em back to town hall.
857
00:41:23,606 --> 00:41:27,651
I am so pleased that you and CeCe
are working well together.
858
00:41:27,735 --> 00:41:29,487
Kind of wild, isn't it?
859
00:41:29,570 --> 00:41:31,906
I'm seeing her in a whole different light.
860
00:41:31,989 --> 00:41:35,784
I think part of that is I'm seeing myself
in a completely different way too.
861
00:41:37,661 --> 00:41:38,996
- See ya.
- Hey!
862
00:41:40,247 --> 00:41:43,083
You're not gonna make
a grand declaration and then leave!
863
00:41:43,167 --> 00:41:44,752
- [chuckles]
- Get in here.
864
00:41:44,835 --> 00:41:47,087
[laughing]
865
00:41:48,464 --> 00:41:54,011
It's like, once I figured out
baseball wasn't the meaning of life,
866
00:41:54,512 --> 00:41:58,140
all other priorities and feelings
867
00:41:58,224 --> 00:41:59,350
started to shift.
868
00:42:00,392 --> 00:42:02,478
Is that exhilarating or terrifying?
869
00:42:02,978 --> 00:42:04,605
- Both.
- [laughing loudly]
870
00:42:04,688 --> 00:42:05,688
[Ty chuckles]
871
00:42:06,106 --> 00:42:07,650
I love an honest answer.
872
00:42:08,234 --> 00:42:09,109
[sighs]
873
00:42:09,193 --> 00:42:11,779
I've been discovering
I'm good at other things too.
874
00:42:12,279 --> 00:42:14,615
Things that make me happier.
875
00:42:14,698 --> 00:42:15,908
Maybe even braver.
876
00:42:16,867 --> 00:42:18,494
Were you afraid before?
877
00:42:18,577 --> 00:42:21,163
Yes, of disappointing people.
878
00:42:23,958 --> 00:42:25,125
[Helen inhales sharply]
879
00:42:25,626 --> 00:42:29,380
I find in my experience
that the people who love us
880
00:42:29,463 --> 00:42:33,884
may seem disappointed in the moment.
881
00:42:35,553 --> 00:42:39,223
But what we perceive as disappointment
is... is really fear.
882
00:42:39,306 --> 00:42:44,728
Fear that we'd be hurt or lost
and that they can't shield us.
883
00:42:46,313 --> 00:42:49,733
But those who truly love us
884
00:42:49,817 --> 00:42:53,821
are also the first to lift us to our feet
when we fall.
885
00:42:53,904 --> 00:42:56,490
But at some point, don't I have to be able
to stand on my own?
886
00:42:57,199 --> 00:42:59,285
I certainly hope not.
887
00:42:59,368 --> 00:43:01,161
- [Ty chuckles]
- [Helen laughing]
888
00:43:01,245 --> 00:43:06,000
I am a... a bit... [laughs]
...farther down the road
889
00:43:06,083 --> 00:43:07,585
than you are, young man,
890
00:43:07,668 --> 00:43:11,213
and I still hold tightly
when a hand is offered.
891
00:43:13,674 --> 00:43:18,470
So, it's okay that I don't have
a master plan for my life?
892
00:43:18,554 --> 00:43:19,930
Of course.
893
00:43:20,014 --> 00:43:22,349
Some people are born knowing
where they're headed,
894
00:43:22,433 --> 00:43:26,604
but most of us just figure it out
chunk by chunk.
895
00:43:27,271 --> 00:43:28,647
I know I still am.
896
00:43:28,731 --> 00:43:29,607
You?
897
00:43:29,690 --> 00:43:33,652
[chuckles] I always thought you wanted
to be a lawyer since you were a kid?
898
00:43:33,736 --> 00:43:34,736
[laughing] True,
899
00:43:35,988 --> 00:43:42,453
but profession is just one of the choices
we make in defining what we want.
900
00:43:44,121 --> 00:43:48,334
[sighs] Some of my other choices
have not borne fruit.
901
00:43:48,417 --> 00:43:50,127
[poignant music playing]
902
00:43:50,210 --> 00:43:51,210
Ryan?
903
00:43:54,340 --> 00:43:56,592
[Helen breathes deeply]
904
00:43:58,510 --> 00:44:03,057
I thought for a very long time
905
00:44:03,682 --> 00:44:06,685
that I knew who I'd spend
the rest of my life with.
906
00:44:08,228 --> 00:44:09,313
And now I don't.
907
00:44:10,272 --> 00:44:11,857
Do you regret the lost time?
908
00:44:11,940 --> 00:44:12,940
No. I...
909
00:44:13,817 --> 00:44:15,235
I wouldn't call it lost.
910
00:44:16,487 --> 00:44:17,696
It taught me.
911
00:44:17,780 --> 00:44:18,989
Still teaching me.
912
00:44:20,282 --> 00:44:23,786
My regret, if I have one, is
913
00:44:24,370 --> 00:44:25,663
having held on...
914
00:44:27,790 --> 00:44:29,333
for all the wrong reasons.
915
00:44:30,459 --> 00:44:34,088
I want... I wanna be more open to change.
916
00:44:36,006 --> 00:44:38,550
- Change is scary.
- Ooh, yeah. Hmm.
917
00:44:39,927 --> 00:44:41,345
You know what's scarier?
918
00:44:43,472 --> 00:44:47,267
To be the same man in 20 years
that you are today.
919
00:44:47,768 --> 00:44:50,187
[poignant music continues]
920
00:44:53,524 --> 00:44:54,692
I don't wanna go to college.
921
00:44:56,985 --> 00:44:58,028
[Ty chuckles softly]
922
00:44:58,112 --> 00:45:01,699
- Well, that's a revelation!
- [laughs] But is it a mistake?
923
00:45:03,534 --> 00:45:07,621
[sighs deeply] That's a conversation
you need to have with your mother.
924
00:45:08,330 --> 00:45:09,456
But have it!
925
00:45:10,749 --> 00:45:12,876
Full heart, full voice.
926
00:45:13,794 --> 00:45:15,754
I think you'll find her receptive.
927
00:45:16,964 --> 00:45:19,508
There are other things
I wanna do right now.
928
00:45:20,300 --> 00:45:23,804
Other choices I want to explore
that bring me...
929
00:45:23,887 --> 00:45:24,887
Joy.
930
00:45:25,264 --> 00:45:27,766
- Yes. Yes.
- [Helen laughing]
931
00:45:28,726 --> 00:45:29,768
Good!
932
00:45:31,019 --> 00:45:32,020
Good.
933
00:45:33,355 --> 00:45:36,108
You... you're fortunate
to have so many options.
934
00:45:37,484 --> 00:45:41,947
Ty, the only permanent choice
you ever need to make...
935
00:45:44,533 --> 00:45:46,243
is to be a good person.
936
00:45:46,744 --> 00:45:48,495
[poignant music continues]
937
00:45:59,798 --> 00:46:02,217
[pensive music playing]
938
00:46:10,559 --> 00:46:11,727
[mud sloshing]
939
00:46:20,235 --> 00:46:23,489
The title will be
With Love, Princess Katie
940
00:46:23,572 --> 00:46:27,951
because that's how she signs her letters,
and that's how she spreads her magic.
941
00:46:28,452 --> 00:46:29,328
With love.
942
00:46:29,411 --> 00:46:30,411
[chuckles]
943
00:46:32,831 --> 00:46:34,333
I wanna write this book.
944
00:46:36,251 --> 00:46:38,545
It will be my version
of a thank-you note to Katie
945
00:46:38,629 --> 00:46:42,090
for inspiring the letters
that brought the Magnolias back together.
946
00:46:42,716 --> 00:46:44,134
Well, you can both thank me
947
00:46:44,218 --> 00:46:48,514
for all the fabulous gifts
you've inherited from your matriarch.
948
00:46:48,597 --> 00:46:51,934
Which is precisely why
you should illustrate it.
949
00:46:52,017 --> 00:46:53,017
Me?
950
00:46:53,352 --> 00:46:57,689
It would be so fun for three generations
to work on something together.
951
00:46:57,773 --> 00:47:01,652
- See the Vreeland legacy in motion.
- [gentle music playing]
952
00:47:01,735 --> 00:47:03,987
- [Paula] Hmm.
- What do you think, Queen Mother?
953
00:47:05,113 --> 00:47:06,365
I am honored
954
00:47:07,407 --> 00:47:10,202
to join my princesses.
955
00:47:10,285 --> 00:47:11,286
Oh.
956
00:47:11,370 --> 00:47:12,955
[both chuckling]
957
00:47:19,753 --> 00:47:20,838
What's wrong, Mom?
958
00:47:22,130 --> 00:47:23,799
Mm. [chuckles]
959
00:47:24,299 --> 00:47:26,343
I'm a good listener, remember?
960
00:47:29,137 --> 00:47:31,515
I still cannot find
the right cake. [chuckles]
961
00:47:31,598 --> 00:47:33,559
[sighs] Mom, call Chef Erik.
962
00:47:33,642 --> 00:47:35,602
And... and say what, honey?
963
00:47:35,686 --> 00:47:36,895
That you're sorry.
964
00:47:36,979 --> 00:47:40,190
You both made choices
that seemed right at the time
965
00:47:40,274 --> 00:47:41,900
but don't seem right anymore.
966
00:47:41,984 --> 00:47:44,570
- What if he doesn't see it that way?
- I bet he does.
967
00:47:45,863 --> 00:47:49,116
If not, he'll explain how he feels
968
00:47:49,199 --> 00:47:52,244
because he respects you
and cares about you.
969
00:47:53,537 --> 00:47:55,038
I wish it were that easy.
970
00:47:56,206 --> 00:47:57,206
It's not?
971
00:48:00,419 --> 00:48:02,671
It might rain. Go grab your jacket.
972
00:48:04,882 --> 00:48:08,010
[pensive music playing]
973
00:48:20,898 --> 00:48:22,065
[exhales deeply]
974
00:48:38,916 --> 00:48:39,916
[Helen exhales]
975
00:48:40,334 --> 00:48:41,334
[sniffles]
976
00:48:42,085 --> 00:48:44,254
Since I won, I have to ask.
977
00:48:44,338 --> 00:48:46,256
- Hmm.
- What's on your mind?
978
00:48:48,008 --> 00:48:49,008
Nothing.
979
00:48:49,635 --> 00:48:52,387
Yeah. Erik's thinking about you too.
980
00:48:53,180 --> 00:48:54,556
You should give him a call.
981
00:48:57,059 --> 00:48:58,852
I put that man through enough.
982
00:48:59,353 --> 00:49:00,520
You're a doctor.
983
00:49:01,396 --> 00:49:03,899
You know wounds
need to be left alone to heal.
984
00:49:03,982 --> 00:49:07,486
Is this about respecting his feelings
or repressing yours?
985
00:49:07,569 --> 00:49:09,821
Isn't it better to call, find out
986
00:49:09,905 --> 00:49:13,742
than to do nothing,
agonize over what could have happened?
987
00:49:14,701 --> 00:49:17,162
[solemn music playing]
988
00:49:23,460 --> 00:49:24,460
[car door closes]
989
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,296
[car engine starts]
990
00:49:42,521 --> 00:49:44,564
[solemn music continues]
991
00:49:57,285 --> 00:50:01,206
[closing theme music playing]
