- Previously, on The Way Home..
- You should come home with me. - I'm not coming back.
- This is Goodwin land, now. - Sorry.
- It should've been Jacob.
- Did you tell Del about the baby?
- She doesn't deserve to know her.
- I couldn't deal with Colton's death
and your involvement in it. - I just have to make sure
that Thomas isn't in here.
- You know you can't prevent this.
- But I can at least say goodbye.
(intense music)
(panting)
Thomas! Thank God.
- Katherine?
You cannot be here now. You need to go.
- No. Listen to me. The British. They're gonna kill you.
- Soldiers aren't gonna kill me, Kat.
- No, Thomas, it's in the war records.
- Maybe, but it will be Cyrus Goodwin
that pulls the trigger. - No.
No, you struck a deal with him! - Goodwin was never gonna
let Jacob live.
Your brother and I wronged him in too many ways.
So I offered myself up in trade,
and Cyrus was happy to accept... - No. No!
You can... run.
- Katherine, if I run, Jacob dies.
I'm no innocent in this. I played my part.
- No. - And I have one last confession
to make to you.
I didn't mean to shoot you by the pond.
- God, that doesn't matter. - Yes, yes, it does.
- No. - I need you to know
I was aiming at Cyrus.
He was in the woods alone that day
and I had him in my sight. - Wait.
If you had killed him, then...
Jacob and Susanna would be safe.
You would be safe.
God, this is all my fault.
- No! No, Kat.
I would never fault you for emerging into my life.
Ever. (men shouting)
(man): I see him! Get him!
- But Katherine, you need to go now.
- I'm not leaving. - Will you still allow me
to carry that part of your heart in mine, as I asked before?
Then please, take a piece of mine for yours.
- No. - Something to remember me by.
- Please don't... Please...
(grand emotional music)
(men shouting)
No, please don't...
- Katherine, you need to go now! - No...
- Kat, go! Run!
And whatever you do, don't look back. Go!
(suspenseful music)
(inaudible)
(panting)
(clicking)
(breathing heavily)
(gunshot)
(sobbing)
(Thomas): Enjoying the view?
Perhaps you'd allow me to carry
part of your heart in mine.
Kat, go! Run! And whatever you do,
don't look back.
Go!
(gunshot)
(heavy breathing)
(ominous music)
- There she is.
(chuckles)
I've... been here all morning.
Which means a lot of refills.
Monica, she already gave me the look,
so I'm pretty sure my days here are numbered,
but you know what? That's a sacrifice
I'm willing to make. - No sacrifice necessary.
We don't know each other. Like... at all.
- Fair. I guess I was worried
that if we did the whole "get to know you" thing,
that you wouldn't...
that you wouldn't want to know me anymore.
- Well, I guess it would've been nice to have a say in that.
- Hey. Are you done ordering, or...
- Hi, Casey, you're back in town.
- Yeah. Here with my dad.
- See you around, Alice.
- Can I get you something? - No, I'm just here to say hi,
so... hi!
- Hi... Yeah, well, I guess we will be seeing
a lot of each other, right?
Now that your dad's bought our land and everything.
Hey, just...
Can you promise me that you'll take good care of it?
- Right, yes. Promise.
But um... I actually have to go,
so... see you later?
- Yeah.
- Hey. - Hi.
Things at home are falling apart.
- Okay. Well, let's talk about it after your shift.
Or we can talk about it now.
- Storm is looking good.
You're clearly working your magic.
- If you're here to take him back...
- No. No, absolutely not.
This one belongs to you, now.
Which is why I'm thinking of buying a new one.
- Do you think that's a good idea?
You couldn't keep up with this one.
- Fair enough. But I thought maybe
if you helped me select one...
- Ah, you don't need any help.
You picked out Storm, and... he's a keeper.
- Alright. I just thought I'd ask.
You know, I also thought it would be nice
to get over this silent treatment thing,
you know. But...
But it's okay.
- Hey, I...
I signed the papers. With the Goodwins. For the land.
I think I'm happy.
- I'm happy you're happy, Del.
- My very existence created this two-decade-long
fight between my mom and Del.
Is that why the pond kept sending me back?
So that I can see that I was the reason
that Mom never talked to Del again and never came home?
- Listen...
Kat may not have spoken to Del again
before you two came here, but that doesn't mean
your mom didn't come back.
Or that you didn't... you know... go back.
- When? You have the journal, right?
- Yes. And all I'm saying is you won't have to wait too long
to find out the details.
(knocking) - Elliot?
Hi. - Alice?
- There's no one at the farm. - It's been a year.
- Wait... what? A year? It's already 2008...
W-What is going on?
- Well, um, I have just finished Teachers College,
so I'm...
there is nothing keeping me here.
I'm leaving, Alice.
- Does Kat know? Or Del?
- I haven't spoken to Kat at all since the...
Lingermore fiasco. Um... And Del's gone. She's...
- Gone? - Yeah. She's gone back home
to North Carolina for a couple weeks,
and she has not spoken to Kat since Lingermore either.
So...
I don't know.
Maybe the pond sent you back so that we could...
make amends, and...
have a real goodbye.
- No. No! It... It has to be more than that.
- I'll try not to take that personally.
(knocking) (Kat): Elliot, are you home?
- Kat...
Never mind, you were right. Okay, you gotta hide.
- Can I come in? I'm freezing.
- Hey. - Hi.
- What are you doing here? - Is... this okay?
- Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Here, uh, go have a seat.
I will make us some tea.
- Thank you for the tea.
It happened.
Thomas was executed.
But not by soldiers. It was Cyrus.
Because of... Jacob.
And, uh... me, maybe.
But I did get to talk to him.
You know, have a final... goodbye.
- Good.
- Oh, Thomas, he...
he gave me these.
- Uh...
Whoa.
These are from the 1800s?
Can I take a picture of this?
- Yeah, it's not about the coins, El.
- I'm sorry. About Thomas.
I'm even more sorry you had to witness it all.
- Well, you were right. I mean, what you said.
I tried, I really...
I really try to fix things,
but I just ended up breaking them.
(sighs)
- I know, it's been a while. I was just...
embarrassed about what I said that night at Lingermore,
and then... how rude I was to you after.
Every day I didn't call just made it worse, but...
I want to fix things, El. With you and my mom.
- Well...
Del's out of town for a couple of weeks.
And I'll be leaving soon myself.
- Just when I need you both.
- Well, I'm sorry that Port Haven doesn't just
freeze in time until Katherine Landry
decides she wants to come back.
(chuckling) I mean...
We do have lives of our own.
- I know that.
- Speaking of lives...
How's yours? How's the baby?
- She's so good. And beautiful. Look.
She's five months now.
- Ohh. (Elliot chuckles)
There's Alice. Thank you. She's beautiful.
So why didn't you bring her down?
I mean, if you're trying to make amends with your mom,
baby Alice would seal the deal.
- As perfect as Alice is,
I just needed a break.
Brady is this amazing dad, but...
maybe he's too amazing?
I just feel like I can't do anything right.
I don't know who I am anymore, El.
My career's flatlined,
I'm lonely at home all day, and I just feel...
trapped.
I've lost myself in being a mom,
and I think it's made me a terrible one.
(sighs) - Listen, Kat.
You are going to be an incredible mother.
And you're gonna raise an amazing daughter
whose love for you is beyond words.
And she'll grow up to not only just be your daughter, but...
your best friend.
- How can you be so certain? - I just am.
- I'm trying, El. I really am.
- Listen.
Alice and Brady, they need you.
- I know. You're right. Thank you.
- Well, it was good to see you, Kat.
- Hey, El.
I wanted to give this to Mom.
But can you just make sure she gets it, please?
It's a plane ticket. To Minneapolis.
To use whenever she wants.
And, um... that.
I want my mom back, Elliot.
I want her to know Alice.
- I'd love to, Kat. But, um... I'm not gonna be here.
- Well. Kat Landry, how are you?
- I'm good. I was actually just leaving.
Um... But Vic...
can you do me a big favour?
- Of course, always. Anything you need, I'll do.
- Can you give this to my mom please? When she comes home.
- It would be my honour.
- Goodbye, Elliot. Thank you.
- A Landry asking us for favours yet again, huh?
It's insulting.
I saw the packed car outside.
Were you gonna tell me that you're leaving today,
or just sneak off?
(scoffs)
Save up to leave town and suddenly
you're the big man, huh?
Well, guess what? You'll never escape this place.
It's in your blood.
You'll see.
(breathes deeply)
(softly): Bye, Elliot. See you soon.
- I decided to walk through the fields.
It's hard to believe that they're not
gonna be ours anymore.
- I can't break the deal.
Brady says that contract is iron clad.
- So you are having second thoughts.
- Of course I am. Do you think I want this to happen?
- You are going to regret selling, Mom. I'm telling you.
What if we got a loan?
- No. I did that with Cole. And my father.
And I'm not going down that road again.
- Okay. Fine. God, you are so stubborn.
(birds chirping)
(knocking) - Elliot?
- Alice?
- Hi. - Hey.
- Thank you.
- Uh... sure. Why?
- For 2008. For telling Mom that she was a good parent,
and helping her see that in herself and come home to me.
- I did do that, didn't I? - So now, I just...
I just need to figure out when Victor gave Del
that plane ticket. - What?
- Kat gave your dad a plane ticket to give to Del
'cause she was away and you were moving out,
but that was the one thing
that could've brought them back together,
but Del didn't use it, and I need to know why.
- I'm sorry. Look, I don't know when
my dad would've given that to Del. I left.
- What's that? - Oh that is a theory.
I'm calling it the "Fynn Factor".
Just... listen.
Jacob fell in the pond going after Fynn, right?
But Fynn was going after Kat.
And he wound up with Kat back in the present.
So I started thinking, what if that meant
that others can time travel
as long as they go in tandem with a Landry?
But the first time I saw you go in, in 1999,
I went in after you, just like Fynn went after Kat,
but it didn't work.
And your mom tried to bring Susanne back from 1814,
not sure she told you, but newsflash,
it didn't work out either. So... what's the connection?
Why didn't it work out for me or my 1814 ancestor?
- And? - I think...
the pond won't bring you forward from your timeline
into the future, but it can bring you back
from your existing one.
Think about it. The pond is all about reflection.
Looking at what has happened and learning from it.
So why would it show you your future? It wouldn't.
- So... hypothetically, you could go back?
- Oh, it's just a theory, Alice.
Yeah, but theories are meant to be tested, Elliot.
- No. I don't... I-I...
- I would be with you. So what if this is a gift
that I could give to you? - The pond has rarely
felt like a gift to either you or Kat.
- It does the first time. I promise.
If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
But we at least have to try, right?
- Why... why...
why test the theory when it's barely above freezing?
I mean... (chuckling nervously)
What's the harm in waiting until summer?
- It's gonna be okay, Elliot. Come on.
(clears throat)
(sighs)
- Okay.
(ethereal music)
On three? - Okay.
(both): One... two... three!
(suspenseful music)
(gasping)
(coughing, choking)
- What the hell what that?
Do you have to do that every time?
- Yeah.
(Elliot grunting)
- It's like being sucked into the void.
(uplifting music)
Oh, my God...
Did... Alice, did it work?
- Yeah. I think it did.
- Okay, Thomas. What did they do with you?
(mysterious music)
Elijah.
(sighs)
(exhales deeply)
(gasps)
Oh, my God. It was Susanna.
- That's... That's Jacob's bike and Colton's truck.
Oh, my God.
Alice, I...
I don't think I can do this. - You can. You came this far.
(soft music)
- What do I do?
- Go.
- Well, hey.
Can I help you?
- Sorry.
I was just... wandering,
and I came up upon your farm.
- I understand.
Well, if you're looking for work, I could use a hand.
I'll pay for your time.
- Right. Thanks.
I'd love to help. - Good.
I'm thinking of running electricity up there.
I want it done before my family's party tonight,
as a surprise. - Party... tonight?
- Yeah.
We do it every year. Sort of a kick-off to the summer.
This year's a little different, though.
My daughter's going away to camp,
and her best friend is...
Well, he's gonna be all alone.
I just thought, you know,
he spent so much time in the loft,
it may make it feel a bit more like home.
- I think th-that...
I think it's a great idea. - Good. Yeah, he's a good kid.
And I'm sure with your help, we can have it done in time.
- I'll do my best, sir. - I have no doubt.
Oh, I'm Colton.
- Hi.
- A real beaut, Del.
I'm glad you changed your mind about lending your expertise.
- Well, now the trick is introducing them.
- Uh-huh. - If we want them to get along,
we have to give them some time. (chuckling)
They've just got to get used to one another.
But see? Take things slow, and it might just work out.
- Wise words. I'll take them to heart.
- I-I just mean, you know, if we want to avoid
any fights or... aggression.
- Duly noted.
- Speaking of aggression, I...
I want to apologize for my behaviour the other night
when you offered me that cheque.
- From what I learned just now,
an introduction like that should've gone way more slowly.
- I'll tell you what.
Let's see how these two get along, and go from there.
- Alright.
- When you have kids,
you'll learn pretty fast that once they start growing up,
they'll need something to call their own.
Their own space.
Can you pass me a couple of the Marrettes?
This might not look like much,
but it's important.
For my daughter, sure, but I think more so
to her best friend that I mentioned.
- How's that? - Well, his home life...
It's kinda rough.
His dad can be hard on him.
So I figured, give him room here.
- You built all of this... for him?
- With him.
Can you pass me that plate and a screwdriver?
His name's Elliot.
We've been working on this together.
One of the most rewarding things I've ever done.
I'll never forget it.
(Colton chuckles) I admit it might be silly
to go to all the work of adding electricity now.
The kids graduate this year,
then they'll be off into the world,
and I have no idea what I'll do then.
Just wanted to cherish this last year we're all together.
But wow, will I ever be the loudest one
cheering from the front row, come graduation.
(chuckles) Grab me a lightbulb.
Class of 2000!
(chuckling)
I can't wait.
- Colt, listen.
Whatever you do, don't...
don't...
forget to take a camera.
So you can remember it all.
'Cause I bet Elliot will...
I bet Elliot remembers it all.
- Let's try this.
Ah! Let there be light.
(soft eerie music)
(Kat): I mean, God, you even write backwards.
R-L, E-L...
(Kat): This fireplace, this is the centre of my home.
- Stones keep coming loose, you see.
- You can miss me then.
And when you do, just go to the fireplace.
(tense music)
(soft music)
(Kat exhales)
- The Founding of Port Haven?
(Susanna): To my Katherine.
Elijah said we needed a beginning.
A fairytale to believe in.
Here's Port Haven's.
Tell our story in your time, as I couldn't tell it in mine.
Yours forever, Susanna.
(breathing heavily)
(exhales deeply)
- Alright, here we go, guys! (laughing)
The big finale!
Oh! Here it comes! (excited shouting)
There goes! - Woo!
- Yeah! Wow!
- Awesome! - Wow!
- Whoa!
(cheering)
(Jacob): Wow!
Look at me!
- There's a light!
- Had a guy from town give me a hand
so that it'd be ready for tonight.
- I don't know what to say, Colton. Thank you.
- I mean, that's why we built that place, right?
So that you'd always have a space.
(rustling)
- Did you hear that?
- Yeah. We have to go. Let's go, they heard us.
- Come on, El. The Cove awaits!
- Have fun, you two. Carpe diem!
Hey, pal. - Hello.
(Colton grunts)
- Alice... I don't even know what to say.
That was... incredible.
(exhales deeply)
(suspenseful music)
(Victor): A Landry asking us for favours.
It's insulting.
- Elliot. Wait, what are you doing?
Oh, my God, that... that's it. You found it.
Del never got the plane ticket.
- And Kat always though Del just chose not to use it.
- Elliot, this is why the pond keeps sending me back!
I can make this right.
- Oh, I was thinking it'd be nice to have dinner
with the family.
Okay? Alright, great. I'll set you a place, Sam.
See you later.
(soft emotional music)
I have to admit...
I'm afraid of this next step.
I'm not sure if I'm ready to let you go, Cole.
- You don't have to.
Remember me. Love me. Miss me.
(sighs) It's all okay, Delly.
I'll always be with you.
And your heart...
is big enough for the past,
the present...
and the future.
- I got your text. What's up?
- Yeah, I got one too. Is everything okay?
- Yeah. Uh, just... take a seat.
Um...
This letter took a long time to get to you,
but... here it is.
- Wait, where did you...?
- It's a ticket. To Minneapolis.
Where did this come from?
- Are you saying that you didn't get that?
- No, I've never seen this before in my life.
- Because you never received it.
- No, but I... I gave that to Elliot.
- You tried to, but he was leaving,
so you gave it to... - Victor.
I gave it to Victor to give to you, Mom.
But you were out of town.
- I never got this, Katherine.
- Because Victor never gave it to you.
- Oh wow. It's an open ticket.
You mean you wanted to see me after everything we said?
- I missed you.
And I wanted you to meet Alice,
and I wanted you to know that you had
such a beautiful granddaughter.
- I already knew about her back then.
- Then why didn't you... - I should have.
Oh, honey, I wanted to reach out to you so many times.
To see my baby being a mother.
But I stopped myself. (sniffles)
- Why? - Because...
I didn't think I deserved you.
And I didn't want to be a burden.
And I wanted to give you a chance
to start your life over without me.
If I had known that you missed me
and that you wanted to see me, oh honey...
- I thought you didn't want to see us.
- Oh God. If I got that ticket,
I would've been there in a heartbeat.
(Del): We've let unsaid words take up too much space,
haven't we?
(Kat): Not anymore, Mom.
* Find my way back home *
* And you know when you find it *
* That you'll never be alone **
- Hi. - Hi!
- Is your grandma around?
- Yeah, I think she's just... over there.
- Perfect timing. (chuckles)
I'm just gonna head over there.
Mrs. Landry?
- Yes? - Casey Goodwin.
- Look who's here! It's so good to see you.
- It's great to be seen. - Yeah.
- Uh... This is for you.
- What's this? - From the family lawyer.
Dad's sorry he couldn't do this himself,
but businessmen gotta be businessing.
Anyway, purchasing your land is,
in his lawyer's words, no longer tenable.
So he has to tear up that whole bill of sales thing.
He gets it if you want to sue, but that's it in writing.
- Well, I have to say, it's not great news...
- But we can get through it, right?
- We can, yes.
Best intern ever!
(laughing) - Your only intern ever.
- Oh well, that's fair.
(laughing)
- It fits.
- I just wish that I could show Mom,
you know. Come clean.
- I mean, it worked with the letter.
- It did. And thank you for finding that.
I don't know how you did...
- I was there. I...
saw when you gave it to Victor.
- Oh, my God. I'm so sorry, Ali.
You really saw me at my worst back then.
Ugh, I... - It's okay. Okay?
Made me appreciate you even more.
(chuckling) - Oh my gosh.
- Here.
Uh, Mom, do you have any photos of Casey?
- Why? - I was just wondering.
- Yeah. I'll send you the one I got.
Oh, I love you. - Love you.
- Well, this is the best news I've heard in a long time.
- I know. I can't get over it.
- Oh... sorry, this is the wrong spot, is it?
- No, no, you're perfect. Sit down.
- Please.
- Well, even though we get to keep the land,
I don't have any money to farm it.
- Well... never say never.
- What?
- A friend of a colleague at school did some research
on those antique coins you found, Kat.
- Mm-hmm. - And this guy is a numismatist.
- Is that even a word? - Yes, it is.
It means a coin specialist.
- Oh, these are from the 1800s.
Where did you find them, Katherine?
- I... picked them up from an auction. I think.
- This guy's eyes practically popped out of this head
when he saw that photo. And of course,
he wants to see the real ones.
But apparently, these coins are worth a small fortune.
- What? - Even for you to farm the land
for years, Del. - Are you sure?
- Yeah, totally verified. The guy is a numismatist.
- You just like saying that word.
- I do. Numis--
(Kat and Alice): Stop it! (laughing)
- My god. - I'm speechless.
And happy.
And so grateful to be with all of you. Cheers!
- Cheers! - Cheers.
(chuckling)
Cheers.
- Enough clean-up. I'd like to talk.
- Okay, so let's talk.
- I'm glad you're my neighbour.
I like knowing you're next door.
I like knowing you.
- Susanna lived a long life.
But... not long enough to see a world where a woman's name
can sell a book.
So...
I'm gonna republish it.
Set the record straight.
- Thank you for doing this.
I time travelled.
- What?
- I time travelled.
- W... How? - With Alice.
The pond sent us to the final summer kick-off
in 1999, and I talked to Colton.
- Oh, Elliot...
- I had my five more minutes, Kat.
And spending that time with him made me realize
what you went through last year.
I had to stop myself from warning him.
About Jacob, and the carnival, and...
driving home that night.
I wanted to try and stop it all, just like you did.
I should never have blamed you for what happened to your dad.
And I...
I should never have left town.
I want you to choose me.
(emotional music)
- I...
I hear your words, I hear them.
I just... I need them to...
to just sink in.
Is that okay?
- Of course.
(breathing deeply)
- If I had lived,
what would you have done?
- I don't know.
Maybe I...
I could've loved you.
But I love someone else.
And you and I, it's...
it's just too late.
(gasping)
Jacob!
Jacob, be careful!
Jacob.
Jacob, hey.
Hi. You're here.
- I've come home.
(dramatic music)
(eerie music)
(bright hopeful music)
Let there be light.
- Are you alright?
- I think so.
That's home.
Do you think Mom is... - She's inside.
- Wait, wait, wait. Jake, Jake. Jack, just... hang on.
Are you absolutely sure
that you want to go through with this?
Because the second we set foot in that--
- I'm sure.
- Elijah and Susanna...
- They encouraged me to come.
Elijah,
I think he always knew this is where I truly belong.
You know, even Thomas told me to come.
- No... Jacob, I...
I was there.
Cyrus, I saw...
- Kat, Thomas is alive.
He managed to procure armour in his travels
in exchange for a case of rum.
An exchange that saved his life, as it turns out
(sighs)
(soft music)
(laughing)
- I wish Dad was here to see this.
- Have fun, you too. Carpe Diem!
Hey, pal.
(Colton grunts)
(Del): Jacob! Time for bed!
- Oh, that's right. Time to go.
I love you. - Love you.
- Come. I know it calls to you.
Remember what I said.
It will always take you where you need to go.
But you need to stay here for now.
It's not your time.
Not yet.
- But why, Grandma? I want to try.
- You just have to be patient,
Colton.
(mysterious music)
Subtitling: difuze
