1
00:00:15,786 --> 00:00:17,496
<i>The dancing continues</i>

2
00:00:17,496 --> 00:00:20,624
<i>here at the third annual
State Regional Swing Championships.</i>

3
00:00:20,624 --> 00:00:24,795
<i>Dancing now:
Christine Sims and Alex Ivanov.</i>

4
00:00:32,428 --> 00:00:35,848
This pair has been dancing together
since they were teenagers.

5
00:00:35,848 --> 00:00:38,934
You know what I heard?
They just got engaged.

6
00:00:40,227 --> 00:00:44,523
<i>They are coming off a phenomenal year,
and these finals are no different.</i>

7
00:00:44,523 --> 00:00:47,359
<i>Their cha-cha and rumba were magnificent,</i>

8
00:00:47,359 --> 00:00:49,862
<i>and this swing is electric.</i>

9
00:00:49,862 --> 00:00:54,867
<i>With a win tonight, they have a chance
at a feat no other pair has accomplished:</i>

10
00:00:54,867 --> 00:00:58,412
<i>namely,
three straight national championships.</i>

11
00:00:58,412 --> 00:01:02,708
Now, let's see if they can put a bow
on this phenomenal year.

12
00:01:14,428 --> 00:01:16,430
Oh, no.

13
00:01:21,435 --> 00:01:24,939
That simple slip
has knocked them out of contention.

14
00:02:09,859 --> 00:02:11,902
- How's it look?
- Looks great, Dad.

15
00:02:11,902 --> 00:02:14,238
- A few inches higher?
- It's perfect.

16
00:02:14,238 --> 00:02:16,115
Perfect it is.

17
00:02:17,408 --> 00:02:19,285
{\an8}- Let's break this down.
- Okay.

18
00:02:19,285 --> 00:02:20,536
There we go.

19
00:02:20,536 --> 00:02:22,830
{\an8}It's Andrew's birthday on Saturday.

20
00:02:22,830 --> 00:02:25,875
{\an8}I promised I'd make him
my famous Linzer torte.

21
00:02:25,875 --> 00:02:27,918
{\an8}- With the raspberry jam?
- That one.

22
00:02:27,918 --> 00:02:30,129
{\an8}Lucky guy.

23
00:02:30,129 --> 00:02:31,714
{\an8}What's the damage?

24
00:02:31,714 --> 00:02:33,549
{\an8}$24.50.

25
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:37,261
{\an8}Oh. Oh, dear. Oh.

26
00:02:37,261 --> 00:02:38,846
{\an8}I left my wallet at home.

27
00:02:38,846 --> 00:02:43,058
{\an8}We'll just start you a tab.
Can't have torte without raspberry jam.

28
00:02:43,058 --> 00:02:46,520
{\an8}What would I do without you,
sweet Jennifer?

29
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,397
{\an8}Mrs. Gregory!

30
00:02:48,397 --> 00:02:50,858
Christine! I heard you were home.

31
00:02:50,858 --> 00:02:54,612
{\an8}I think Mom told half the town
before my plane hit the tarmac.

32
00:02:54,612 --> 00:02:57,448
{\an8}Sweetheart, I'm not putting you to work.

33
00:02:57,448 --> 00:02:59,325
{\an8}I'm happy to give a hand.

34
00:02:59,325 --> 00:03:02,244
{\an8}I've got two of my own.
They work just fine.

35
00:03:02,244 --> 00:03:05,080
{\an8}- Are you back for long?
- A few weeks.

36
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,750
{\an8}She's starting a new job in Seattle.
What is it?

37
00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:11,211
{\an8}I'll be at a consulting firm
specializing in human resources...

38
00:03:11,211 --> 00:03:14,298
{\an8}- Human resources...
- ...and optimization strategies.

39
00:03:14,298 --> 00:03:16,133
{\an8}Whatever she said.

40
00:03:16,133 --> 00:03:20,346
{\an8}But all the way to Seattle?
We have jobs in Appleton.

41
00:03:20,346 --> 00:03:23,766
{\an8}This one comes with a corner office
and a view of the Space Needle.

42
00:03:23,766 --> 00:03:25,225
{\an8}Mmm.

43
00:03:25,225 --> 00:03:28,020
{\an8}Honey? Need anything else
to put up for the festival?

44
00:03:28,020 --> 00:03:30,189
{\an8}Some of those potted plants from out back.

45
00:03:30,189 --> 00:03:31,732
{\an8}You got it. Okay.

46
00:03:31,732 --> 00:03:33,192
{\an8}Where are you off to?

47
00:03:33,192 --> 00:03:36,320
{\an8}You said I can't help you,
so I'm going to help Dad.

48
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:41,033
{\an8}She's got you there.

49
00:03:55,673 --> 00:03:59,802
Sweetheart, it's almost lunch.
I'm gonna meet your father at the farm.

50
00:03:59,802 --> 00:04:01,178
Can you lock up?

51
00:04:01,178 --> 00:04:02,805
Yeah, sure, sure.

52
00:04:11,063 --> 00:04:12,398
Oh.

53
00:04:12,398 --> 00:04:14,483
- Oh.
- Can I...?

54
00:04:14,483 --> 00:04:17,361
- Thank you. I'll just be a minute.
- Take your time.

55
00:04:17,361 --> 00:04:20,155
- You're closing already?
- Just an hour for lunch.

56
00:04:20,155 --> 00:04:21,657
Oh, that's--

57
00:04:21,657 --> 00:04:23,784
It really is a small town, huh?

58
00:04:23,784 --> 00:04:25,494
Okay.

59
00:04:26,996 --> 00:04:30,124
- Can I help you find something?
- I think I got it, thanks.

60
00:04:47,433 --> 00:04:49,893
Uh, I think I've been down
all your aisles.

61
00:04:49,893 --> 00:04:52,229
- Twice.
- Hmm.

62
00:04:52,229 --> 00:04:54,940
If you tell me what you're looking for.
I can help.

63
00:04:54,940 --> 00:04:57,568
Paper, a ruler, glue...

64
00:04:57,568 --> 00:05:00,112
On the side. The aisle you didn't go down.

65
00:05:00,112 --> 00:05:02,323
Right, just...

66
00:05:02,323 --> 00:05:04,283
- Oh! Um... Sorry.

67
00:05:04,283 --> 00:05:05,784
It's okay.

68
00:05:05,784 --> 00:05:07,411
That's, uh...

69
00:05:08,287 --> 00:05:09,788
That's where that goes.

70
00:05:09,788 --> 00:05:12,416
I'm sorry, I just haven't been
in a store in ages.

71
00:05:12,416 --> 00:05:16,503
I usually just, you know,
have stuff delivered on the app.

72
00:05:16,503 --> 00:05:19,256
And, uh, yeah, you know, no lines.

73
00:05:19,256 --> 00:05:22,176
No small talk with cashiers.

74
00:05:25,512 --> 00:05:28,932
Not that I haven't enjoyed
talking with you.

75
00:05:28,932 --> 00:05:31,852
- Lovely. Pleasant.
- Why, thank you.

76
00:05:31,852 --> 00:05:34,146
I'm sorry. It's just, uh...

77
00:05:34,146 --> 00:05:39,610
It's already been a long day,
and I haven't had a decent sleep in weeks.

78
00:05:39,610 --> 00:05:42,488
We have chamomile.
Or valerian, actually.

79
00:05:42,488 --> 00:05:44,656
- Ooh, that--
- Yes. It's a root.

80
00:05:44,656 --> 00:05:46,533
My grandfather swore by it.

81
00:05:46,533 --> 00:05:49,328
Thirty minutes before bed,
you'll sleep like a baby.

82
00:05:49,328 --> 00:05:50,579
Huh.

83
00:05:50,579 --> 00:05:54,708
Well, thanks, but I think I'll just stay
with what I came for.

84
00:05:56,001 --> 00:05:58,462
Oh, and glitter. Glitter.

85
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:52,099
- Good morning.
- Good morning.

86
00:06:52,099 --> 00:06:53,976
How many eggs am I making you?

87
00:06:53,976 --> 00:06:56,603
I'll just do toast and coffee.
Is this for me?

88
00:06:56,603 --> 00:07:01,316
I'm not letting you out that door
on an empty stomach.

89
00:07:01,316 --> 00:07:03,068
What were you eating at school?

90
00:07:03,068 --> 00:07:05,988
Now I'm nervous to tell you.
Two eggs, please.

91
00:07:05,988 --> 00:07:07,489
- Right answer.

92
00:07:07,489 --> 00:07:09,199
Oh, man.
- What happened?

93
00:07:09,199 --> 00:07:13,620
Oh... Charlotte got out of her pen again.

94
00:07:13,620 --> 00:07:16,248
- Boots!
- Oh, sorry. Sorry.

95
00:07:17,875 --> 00:07:20,127
Found her grazing in the back 40.

96
00:07:20,127 --> 00:07:23,213
It's an entire unplowed field of grass.
It's her dream.

97
00:07:23,213 --> 00:07:28,135
I don't get it. I've patched the wiring
on her pen three times in the last month.

98
00:07:28,135 --> 00:07:29,595
She gets through.

99
00:07:29,595 --> 00:07:31,972
I don't know who's more stubborn.
You or that goat.

100
00:07:31,972 --> 00:07:34,057
- I do.
Oh, hush.

101
00:07:34,057 --> 00:07:37,269
Christy, would you grab
your father a shirt?

102
00:07:37,269 --> 00:07:38,770
Yeah, sure.

103
00:07:38,770 --> 00:07:39,938
Thank you, honey.

104
00:08:07,674 --> 00:08:11,011
- Charlotte's winning. You know that.
I know.

105
00:08:11,011 --> 00:08:13,305
Mom? Dad?

106
00:08:14,765 --> 00:08:16,767
What is this?

107
00:08:20,687 --> 00:08:24,233
The bank switched hands
last year, honey, and, uh...

108
00:08:24,233 --> 00:08:27,611
The new owners took over.
They brought some changes.

109
00:08:27,611 --> 00:08:31,615
They've been raising rents
on a number of properties around town.

110
00:08:31,615 --> 00:08:32,950
How much?

111
00:08:33,867 --> 00:08:35,410
A lot.

112
00:08:36,203 --> 00:08:37,913
Why didn't you tell me?

113
00:08:37,913 --> 00:08:40,207
We didn't want to worry you.

114
00:08:40,207 --> 00:08:45,212
We hoped with a little time,
we could find a solution. But...

115
00:08:45,837 --> 00:08:49,591
So, what does this mean?
Are you closing the store?

116
00:08:50,300 --> 00:08:54,763
No, we have some parties who are
interested in taking over the lease.

117
00:08:54,763 --> 00:08:56,390
It's a great location.

118
00:08:56,390 --> 00:09:00,143
Taking it over to save it
or to turn it into something else?

119
00:09:00,143 --> 00:09:01,520
You never know.

120
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,606
Somebody might look at it
as a good investment.

121
00:09:04,606 --> 00:09:07,859
We're just going to enjoy
the time we have left.

122
00:09:07,859 --> 00:09:09,403
We need to fight this.

123
00:09:09,403 --> 00:09:11,280
Honey, it's out of our hands.

124
00:09:11,863 --> 00:09:13,532
I--

125
00:09:13,532 --> 00:09:15,867
Chris? Where are you going?

126
00:09:15,867 --> 00:09:18,412
- I'll be back.
- What about your breakfast?

127
00:09:30,549 --> 00:09:32,718
- Hi, Candace.
- Hi, Christy.

128
00:09:32,718 --> 00:09:34,094
Is Ben available?

129
00:09:34,094 --> 00:09:36,346
Oh, I'm sorry. He's out for the week.

130
00:09:36,346 --> 00:09:37,973
- He's up at his cabin.
- Oh.

131
00:09:37,973 --> 00:09:41,143
Oh, but if it's important,
I can try and page him for you.

132
00:09:41,143 --> 00:09:45,230
Uh, I just had a question. It can wait.

133
00:09:45,230 --> 00:09:48,692
Well, in that case,
you could run it by Mr. Russell.

134
00:09:48,692 --> 00:09:50,152
Mr. Russell?

135
00:09:50,152 --> 00:09:55,073
Ben wanted to spend time with his family,
so he brought him on.

136
00:09:55,073 --> 00:09:58,452
Well, if you have questions,
he'll have answers.

137
00:09:58,452 --> 00:10:01,997
He used to work
for a really fancy firm in Chicago.

138
00:10:01,997 --> 00:10:03,540
Can you believe it?

139
00:10:03,540 --> 00:10:04,958
And now he's here?

140
00:10:04,958 --> 00:10:07,919
Well, he's with somebody,
but if you want to wait--

141
00:10:07,919 --> 00:10:13,342
Just make sure you keep all those receipts
if you plan on writing off those expenses.

142
00:10:13,342 --> 00:10:16,011
And if you have questions,
come see us or call.

143
00:10:16,011 --> 00:10:17,804
Great. Thank you so much.

144
00:10:17,804 --> 00:10:20,724
- My pleasure.
- Oh, I brought something.

145
00:10:20,724 --> 00:10:24,519
Just for you. I got them from Penny.

146
00:10:24,519 --> 00:10:26,063
Penny?

147
00:10:27,606 --> 00:10:29,024
My hen.

148
00:10:29,024 --> 00:10:30,484
Oh. Wow.

149
00:10:30,484 --> 00:10:33,070
That-- this is really not necessary.

150
00:10:33,070 --> 00:10:35,530
No, I insist. I insist.

151
00:10:36,323 --> 00:10:39,493
Christine! Hey, I heard
you were back in town.

152
00:10:39,493 --> 00:10:40,452
Hey.

153
00:10:40,452 --> 00:10:42,537
- Oh, it's good to see you!
- You too.

154
00:10:42,537 --> 00:10:44,706
I'll see you at the fair. Thanks.

155
00:10:46,083 --> 00:10:49,461
Uh, Mr. Russell,
Christine had a question for Ben.

156
00:10:49,461 --> 00:10:53,423
- Any chance you have a moment to field it?
- Sure.

157
00:10:53,423 --> 00:10:54,925
Hello again.

158
00:10:54,925 --> 00:10:56,301
Hello.

159
00:10:57,177 --> 00:10:59,346
Uh... You've met?

160
00:10:59,346 --> 00:11:00,931
Yesterday, we...

161
00:11:00,931 --> 00:11:03,058
How'd you sleep? You look great.

162
00:11:04,017 --> 00:11:06,478
Very well, thank you.

163
00:11:06,478 --> 00:11:08,605
Ah, the valerian.

164
00:11:10,023 --> 00:11:11,483
You had a question?

165
00:11:11,483 --> 00:11:15,612
Oh, if it's okay, I'll wait for Ben.
He knows our family history.

166
00:11:15,612 --> 00:11:17,364
But thank you, Mr. Russell.

167
00:11:17,364 --> 00:11:20,826
Matthew.
And if you change your mind, I'll be here.

168
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,163
Do you want any of these?

169
00:11:25,163 --> 00:11:28,750
- I'm allergic.
- I live on a farm.

170
00:11:28,750 --> 00:11:30,585
What am I gonna do with these?

171
00:11:30,585 --> 00:11:32,587
Where I'm from,
you fry, poach or scramble.

172
00:11:32,587 --> 00:11:34,714
Okay.

173
00:11:34,714 --> 00:11:36,466
See you this afternoon?

174
00:11:36,466 --> 00:11:39,678
- Is your mother making her sweet tea?
- Yeah. Swing by.

175
00:11:39,678 --> 00:11:42,180
We'll have a glass with your name on it.

176
00:11:45,267 --> 00:11:47,269
- What's this afternoon?

177
00:11:47,269 --> 00:11:49,521
The Harvest Festival on Main Street.

178
00:11:49,521 --> 00:11:51,106
Oh, and Mrs. Tremblay called.

179
00:11:51,106 --> 00:11:53,692
She's going to be a little bit late.

180
00:11:53,692 --> 00:11:56,361
No problem, just send her in
when she gets here.

181
00:11:56,361 --> 00:11:59,364
She's not going to pay me
with eggs too, is she?

182
00:11:59,364 --> 00:12:03,410
Not everyone in this town has chickens.

183
00:12:03,410 --> 00:12:04,953
She has bees.

184
00:12:28,768 --> 00:12:34,024
Mom, I've had five people today tell me
what a blessing the General Store is.

185
00:12:34,024 --> 00:12:35,358
Appleton needs it.

186
00:12:35,358 --> 00:12:38,111
We don't have another option.

187
00:12:38,111 --> 00:12:41,364
Not yet.
"Where there's a will, there's a way"?

188
00:12:41,364 --> 00:12:44,993
All things come to an end, eventually.
Even the good things.

189
00:12:46,203 --> 00:12:48,288
Um... one second.

190
00:12:52,584 --> 00:12:53,793
Hey.

191
00:12:54,794 --> 00:12:56,213
Pretty, huh?

192
00:12:57,088 --> 00:12:59,382
They're Gerberas, aren't they?

193
00:12:59,382 --> 00:13:00,926
You know your flowers.

194
00:13:00,926 --> 00:13:04,054
I planted some in my garden,
but they wilted.

195
00:13:04,054 --> 00:13:05,514
Oh.

196
00:13:05,514 --> 00:13:07,641
Well, those need sun.

197
00:13:07,641 --> 00:13:11,144
- Do you have a lot of trees in your yard?
- One big one.

198
00:13:11,144 --> 00:13:15,941
Hmm. That could be the culprit.
So, are you here by yourself?

199
00:13:15,941 --> 00:13:18,318
No, my dad's just talking to someone.

200
00:13:18,318 --> 00:13:19,611
Dad!

201
00:13:19,611 --> 00:13:23,156
Taylor, I've told you not to wander off
without telling me.

202
00:13:23,156 --> 00:13:26,952
Sorry, Dad. I just wanted
to see the flowers.

203
00:13:26,952 --> 00:13:29,120
Well, hi, again. Again.

204
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,039
Hi.

205
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:35,585
Do you find it interesting,
us running into each other three times?

206
00:13:35,585 --> 00:13:38,964
That's small towns. Give me a week,
and I'll know your shoe size.

207
00:13:39,881 --> 00:13:43,802
Dad, she says that the tree
is the reason my flowers aren't growing.

208
00:13:43,802 --> 00:13:46,388
Possibly. But not a bad place to start.

209
00:13:46,388 --> 00:13:48,473
I'm sure we can find another place.

210
00:13:49,891 --> 00:13:53,186
We learned this one
in our social dance class! May I?

211
00:13:53,186 --> 00:13:55,897
You may. I'm watching.

212
00:13:55,897 --> 00:13:58,358
She's in lessons at Inspire Dance Studios.

213
00:13:58,358 --> 00:14:02,612
I thought she could make friends
in a new place. She loves it.

214
00:14:03,613 --> 00:14:06,283
How long ago did you move to Appleton?

215
00:14:06,283 --> 00:14:08,618
Uh, almost three months ago now.

216
00:14:08,618 --> 00:14:12,455
She's the reason why I made
the glue and ruler run.

217
00:14:12,455 --> 00:14:14,541
School project.

218
00:14:14,541 --> 00:14:16,668
- Come on, Dad!
- What? I... Oh, boy.

219
00:14:18,128 --> 00:14:20,630
I don't know these steps! Here we go.

220
00:14:34,311 --> 00:14:36,313
You're sitting out a do-si-do?

221
00:14:36,313 --> 00:14:39,065
I'm helping Mom with the stand.

222
00:14:39,065 --> 00:14:41,693
She can get along
without you for a minute.

223
00:14:42,861 --> 00:14:45,155
- Well, okay.
- Come on.

224
00:14:53,788 --> 00:14:54,956
Switch!

225
00:14:54,956 --> 00:14:56,750
- Oh, there she is!
- Oh!

226
00:14:56,750 --> 00:15:00,128
Yeah. Oh, there you...
I don't know what I'm doing.

227
00:15:00,128 --> 00:15:03,048
- This is my first do-si-do.
- You're doing great.

228
00:15:03,048 --> 00:15:07,052
Thank you! My mother had me
in dance lessons when I was a teenager.

229
00:15:07,052 --> 00:15:08,345
- Really?
- Yeah.

230
00:15:09,220 --> 00:15:12,432
- How about this?
- What are we... They're not...

231
00:15:12,432 --> 00:15:16,269
Are you challenging me?
Okay. I'm game. "When in Rome."

232
00:15:16,269 --> 00:15:20,732
- Yeah!
- Lasso move. And I can be a little bit...

233
00:15:20,732 --> 00:15:22,150
A little country in me.

234
00:15:22,150 --> 00:15:23,693
- Yeah, you got some moves.
- Whoo!

235
00:15:23,693 --> 00:15:25,946
- How long did you dance?
- Five years.

236
00:15:25,946 --> 00:15:29,950
- You must've enjoyed it.
- I was the only boy in a class of girls.

237
00:15:29,950 --> 00:15:31,409
I kind of loved it.

238
00:15:34,496 --> 00:15:36,331
I should probably get to my...

239
00:15:36,331 --> 00:15:40,293
Yeah, um... My parents are hosting
a gardening party tomorrow. Want to come?

240
00:15:40,293 --> 00:15:42,545
- You and Taylor?
- A party?

241
00:15:42,545 --> 00:15:46,257
It'll be fun. And a good way
to get to know your new neighbors.

242
00:15:46,257 --> 00:15:49,177
- We would love that. Thank you.
- Okay. Good.

243
00:15:49,177 --> 00:15:50,762
42 Oak Grove. 10 a.m.

244
00:15:50,762 --> 00:15:53,223
42 Oak Grove, 10 a.m., we will be there.

245
00:15:53,223 --> 00:15:55,266
- Okay.
- Thank you. Hey, baby girl!

246
00:15:57,852 --> 00:15:59,521
That was my first do-si-do!

247
00:16:08,405 --> 00:16:10,865
- Hi!
- Oh my gosh!

248
00:16:10,865 --> 00:16:15,203
There she is. I heard you were back
and hadn't come by the studio yet.

249
00:16:15,203 --> 00:16:16,121
Aww.

250
00:16:16,121 --> 00:16:17,580
It was my next stop.

251
00:16:17,580 --> 00:16:19,624
- I've missed you.
- Ditto.

252
00:16:19,624 --> 00:16:22,043
And, hey, you are right on time.

253
00:16:22,043 --> 00:16:24,963
Could I interest you
in a raffle ticket... or ten?

254
00:16:24,963 --> 00:16:28,925
Sure.
- We are raising money for a field trip.

255
00:16:28,925 --> 00:16:32,637
I'm taking two of my advanced classes
to the State Regional Swing Competition.

256
00:16:32,637 --> 00:16:33,555
Oh.

257
00:16:33,555 --> 00:16:35,306
It's in the city this year.

258
00:16:35,306 --> 00:16:38,601
Are you competing--
I guess in the 35 and older division?

259
00:16:38,601 --> 00:16:41,104
- Remember when that seemed so old?
- Yeah.

260
00:16:41,104 --> 00:16:45,942
Well, I was supposed to, but with
my quad acting up, I decided not to.

261
00:16:45,942 --> 00:16:50,155
But the prize money
is quite a lot this year.

262
00:16:51,489 --> 00:16:53,825
- Wow.
- Right?

263
00:16:53,825 --> 00:16:57,412
This way. Dinner tonight?

264
00:16:57,412 --> 00:17:00,081
- Yeah.
- Great. Come by the studio after closing.

265
00:17:00,081 --> 00:17:01,708
- Okay.
- Okay, great.

266
00:17:16,639 --> 00:17:19,851
- Feels like a lifetime ago.
- Hmm. Do you miss it?

267
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,564
I mean, kind of. It was such a big part
of my life for so long, but,

268
00:17:24,564 --> 00:17:26,566
eh, the way it ended...

269
00:17:26,566 --> 00:17:31,529
I'd love to have you stop by classes.
The students would be so excited.

270
00:17:31,529 --> 00:17:34,074
Yeah, of course. Of course.

271
00:17:34,074 --> 00:17:38,453
We used to go to the General Store
after dance class and get snacks.

272
00:17:38,453 --> 00:17:41,289
My mom would encourage healthy choices.

273
00:17:41,289 --> 00:17:43,416
Your mom still does with my students.

274
00:17:43,416 --> 00:17:44,834
Yeah?

275
00:17:48,213 --> 00:17:52,717
I just found out my parents can't afford
to keep the doors open much longer.

276
00:17:52,717 --> 00:17:54,719
What? Are they okay?

277
00:17:54,719 --> 00:17:57,514
Yeah, it's a bank thing.

278
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,976
I can't imagine this town
without Sims' General Store.

279
00:18:01,976 --> 00:18:05,980
I just know I could come up
with a solution, if I had more time.

280
00:18:07,649 --> 00:18:10,985
Well, it's too bad
you're not still competing.

281
00:18:10,985 --> 00:18:12,695
Uh, no, no, no, no.

282
00:18:12,695 --> 00:18:15,448
I mean, it might be a long shot, but...

283
00:18:15,448 --> 00:18:19,035
- You won State Competition.
- I haven't danced in years.

284
00:18:19,035 --> 00:18:20,995
You can shake off the rust.

285
00:18:20,995 --> 00:18:22,413
I'd need an earthquake.

286
00:18:22,413 --> 00:18:25,291
But that prize money
could buy you more time.

287
00:18:25,291 --> 00:18:27,210
Look. Even if I wanted to enter--

288
00:18:27,210 --> 00:18:29,546
- Which you do...
- Who would I dance with?

289
00:18:31,506 --> 00:18:33,925
You could always call Alex.

290
00:18:33,925 --> 00:18:36,052
You can't be serious.

291
00:18:36,052 --> 00:18:37,512
First of all, he has Kelly.

292
00:18:37,512 --> 00:18:39,848
Kelly got married.
She's taking a year off.

293
00:18:42,058 --> 00:18:45,270
I promised myself
I would never compete with him again.

294
00:18:45,270 --> 00:18:47,355
I know he broke your heart.

295
00:18:47,355 --> 00:18:52,360
But if there was ever a time
to set that aside, I mean, isn't this it?

296
00:18:53,528 --> 00:18:55,655
Come on, let's go.

297
00:19:02,453 --> 00:19:04,789
Look at this farm! It's so cute!

298
00:19:09,627 --> 00:19:10,837
It's beautiful here.

299
00:19:10,837 --> 00:19:13,006
Remember the rules of etiquette, Dad.

300
00:19:13,006 --> 00:19:15,967
Say "please" and "thank you,"
no elbows on the table,

301
00:19:15,967 --> 00:19:17,886
and offer help when you can.

302
00:19:17,886 --> 00:19:20,680
- I shall try my best.
- Good Dad.

303
00:19:26,561 --> 00:19:28,396
- Hey!
Hello!

304
00:19:28,396 --> 00:19:31,399
- You made it!
- We found it, yeah.

305
00:19:33,735 --> 00:19:36,654
And you're wearing a tie.

306
00:19:38,448 --> 00:19:41,743
Yeah, I thought you said
it was a garden party.

307
00:19:41,743 --> 00:19:43,995
Gardening... party.

308
00:19:43,995 --> 00:19:46,247
Planting flowers...

309
00:19:47,081 --> 00:19:52,545
-"Gardening." I missed the "ing" part.
Yes.

310
00:19:52,545 --> 00:19:56,090
Sorry. If you want to sit this out,
I understand.

311
00:19:56,090 --> 00:19:59,719
- That's a very nice jacket.
- Well, thank you. But, no.

312
00:19:59,719 --> 00:20:02,555
I think we shall plant in style.

313
00:20:03,389 --> 00:20:04,432
That's amazing.

314
00:20:04,432 --> 00:20:08,019
Oh, and you've briefly met
my daughter, Taylor.

315
00:20:08,019 --> 00:20:10,188
Hey, Taylor. Nice to officially meet you.

316
00:20:10,188 --> 00:20:12,857
- I'm Christine.
- Nice to meet you, Christine.

317
00:20:13,900 --> 00:20:15,276
Hmm...

318
00:20:15,276 --> 00:20:20,114
Hey, Mom? Do we have something
we could put over Taylor's pretty outfit?

319
00:20:20,114 --> 00:20:23,326
I think I can find something.
Come with me, Miss Taylor.

320
00:20:23,326 --> 00:20:26,287
- Go ahead. That's so nice, thank you.
- Yeah.

321
00:20:27,538 --> 00:20:30,959
- Wow. This is, uh... This is great.
- Yeah.

322
00:20:30,959 --> 00:20:35,296
You know, this might sound a little weird,
but this is my first time on a farm.

323
00:20:35,296 --> 00:20:37,966
- I'm such a city boy.
- Oh. Well, you dressed for it.

324
00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:41,344
- Yeah...

325
00:20:41,344 --> 00:20:43,263
Do you want the tour later on?

326
00:20:43,263 --> 00:20:45,682
- I would love that.
- Okay.

327
00:20:45,682 --> 00:20:48,017
Now, it's time to... "gardening."

328
00:20:48,017 --> 00:20:50,103
- Follow me.

329
00:20:50,103 --> 00:20:53,022
Hey, everybody. This is Matthew.

330
00:20:53,022 --> 00:20:55,233
- Hello, everybody.
- He's here to garden.

331
00:20:55,233 --> 00:20:57,694
Yes, even though I dressed for it.

332
00:20:57,694 --> 00:21:01,698
But I'm not afraid to get dirty, so...
I'm new. Please put me to work.

333
00:21:01,698 --> 00:21:02,699
Yeah.

334
00:21:03,783 --> 00:21:06,119
Now that the soil's been well tilled,

335
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:09,163
you want the holes
at least a foot deep for the roots.

336
00:21:09,163 --> 00:21:12,834
Now let's split into pairs
and get started.

337
00:21:12,834 --> 00:21:15,837
- Can we be a team?
- Of course!

338
00:21:18,131 --> 00:21:20,258
What about dear old Dad over here?

339
00:21:20,258 --> 00:21:22,510
You can be my partner, handsome.

340
00:21:25,305 --> 00:21:26,889
I sure can!

341
00:21:32,687 --> 00:21:34,230
Alright.

342
00:21:46,242 --> 00:21:48,619
See? Perfect! Oh, you already...

343
00:21:51,289 --> 00:21:54,417
- What do you think?
- No garden outfit, but...

344
00:21:55,543 --> 00:21:57,211
Very posh.

345
00:21:57,211 --> 00:22:00,465
Dig a hole
and let's get started.

346
00:22:05,219 --> 00:22:07,096
It's a great find, Mrs. Gregory.

347
00:22:09,515 --> 00:22:13,102
Yeah. We want them evenly spaced.
That's perfect. Good.

348
00:22:13,102 --> 00:22:15,938
Why are we planting spring bulbs
in the fall?

349
00:22:15,938 --> 00:22:19,108
Well, they actually
need the cold to bloom.

350
00:22:19,108 --> 00:22:20,610
Here. You do the next one.

351
00:22:20,610 --> 00:22:24,155
- What if I ruin it?
- You're going to do great!

352
00:22:24,155 --> 00:22:25,865
And I'm right here.

353
00:22:25,865 --> 00:22:26,783
There.

354
00:22:28,534 --> 00:22:30,036
Yeah, perfect!

355
00:22:31,704 --> 00:22:34,248
It's going great.
We need more apple cider, though.

356
00:22:34,248 --> 00:22:35,958
Okay.

357
00:22:36,918 --> 00:22:39,504
- Matthew seems nice.
- Yeah.

358
00:22:39,504 --> 00:22:41,422
Spiffy dresser, too.

359
00:22:41,422 --> 00:22:44,592
We got some wires crossed,
but he was a great sport.

360
00:22:46,010 --> 00:22:51,099
Is it a good idea to get involved with him
right before moving across the country?

361
00:22:51,099 --> 00:22:52,850
No, it's not like that.

362
00:22:52,850 --> 00:22:55,186
I was just being neighborly.

363
00:22:55,895 --> 00:22:57,355
My mistake.

364
00:22:59,398 --> 00:23:02,777
I got a call from Ben.
He said you stopped by his office.

365
00:23:02,777 --> 00:23:04,570
I thought he could help.

366
00:23:04,570 --> 00:23:08,658
You know, we talked to him.
He was our first call.

367
00:23:09,951 --> 00:23:12,995
There's just no reasonable way

368
00:23:12,995 --> 00:23:16,332
that we can come up with
that kind of money so quickly.

369
00:23:16,332 --> 00:23:20,378
Well, Amanda thinks
that I should compete at state regionals.

370
00:23:20,378 --> 00:23:23,589
I thought you'd given up
competitive dance.

371
00:23:23,589 --> 00:23:27,760
Yeah, but the prize money would cover
the rent for more than a year.

372
00:23:28,970 --> 00:23:32,014
Your heart's in the right place, but...

373
00:23:32,014 --> 00:23:35,560
I wish you wouldn't carry
this responsibility.

374
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,770
You have a wonderful future ahead.

375
00:23:37,770 --> 00:23:40,523
I don't want our worries
to rob you of that joy.

376
00:23:40,523 --> 00:23:42,316
Your worries are my worries.

377
00:23:44,110 --> 00:23:47,113
This dance competition
probably won't happen.

378
00:23:47,113 --> 00:23:49,949
I don't even have a partner.
We'll figure it out.

379
00:23:49,949 --> 00:23:51,951
I'm sure you will.

380
00:23:53,995 --> 00:23:57,707
I'm sorry, I thought you might
need help with the apple cider.

381
00:23:57,707 --> 00:24:01,377
Oh. Thank you, Taylor.
That is so thoughtful.

382
00:24:01,377 --> 00:24:03,588
It's rule number three.

383
00:24:17,310 --> 00:24:19,395
So, what do you grow here?

384
00:24:19,395 --> 00:24:22,315
Lettuce, tomatoes, all kinds of produce.

385
00:24:22,315 --> 00:24:24,609
And we sell it all at the store.

386
00:24:24,609 --> 00:24:25,526
Huh.

387
00:24:26,485 --> 00:24:28,154
And what about that there?

388
00:24:28,154 --> 00:24:31,324
Ah, the back 40.
Haven't used that in ages.

389
00:24:31,324 --> 00:24:33,951
When I was a little girl,
we had juniper fields.

390
00:24:33,951 --> 00:24:36,537
But they haven't been able
to keep it cultivated,

391
00:24:36,537 --> 00:24:38,915
so now the goats graze there sometimes.

392
00:24:38,915 --> 00:24:40,333
So cute.

393
00:24:40,333 --> 00:24:43,878
- Yeah.
- What was it like growing up on a farm?

394
00:24:43,878 --> 00:24:46,422
I think that's where I got my work ethic.

395
00:24:46,422 --> 00:24:49,383
They used to let me help
before I got busy with dance.

396
00:24:49,383 --> 00:24:51,677
There is so much to do before sunup.

397
00:24:51,677 --> 00:24:53,888
I admire that kind of dedication.

398
00:24:53,888 --> 00:24:57,058
Also the ability to not sleep in
through your morning alarm.

399
00:24:57,058 --> 00:25:00,102
You don't see many farmers with insomnia.

400
00:25:00,102 --> 00:25:04,607
Man, after a hard day's labor,
you're out when your head hits the pillow.

401
00:25:04,607 --> 00:25:06,567
I need to try that.

402
00:25:44,063 --> 00:25:47,316
Taylor, we gotta go!
Where are you?

403
00:25:47,316 --> 00:25:50,528
Hey, there you are. What's going on?

404
00:25:50,528 --> 00:25:52,655
I don't think they're gonna make it.

405
00:25:52,655 --> 00:25:54,448
I moved them far from the shade.

406
00:25:54,448 --> 00:25:58,911
I guess it's something else.
- Why won't anything grow?

407
00:25:58,911 --> 00:26:00,454
What am I doing wrong?

408
00:26:00,454 --> 00:26:03,332
I don't know, sweetheart.
I wish I could help. I don't--

409
00:26:04,250 --> 00:26:08,963
I know you're frustrated,
but you are gonna solve this,

410
00:26:08,963 --> 00:26:12,758
'cause you are a very smart person.

411
00:26:12,758 --> 00:26:14,343
You take after me.

412
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,348
You got this. We gotta get to class.
We'll figure it out.

413
00:26:20,308 --> 00:26:21,767
Okay.

414
00:26:21,767 --> 00:26:25,438
Alright, baby girl, I'll be back
to pick you up at five.

415
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,358
- I was going to Cammie's.
- I get off work early.

416
00:26:29,358 --> 00:26:32,069
It's gonna be you, me,
and Daddy's special lasagna.

417
00:26:36,365 --> 00:26:39,201
Did you know Christine
used to be a professional dancer?

418
00:26:39,201 --> 00:26:42,705
Oh. No. Really?

419
00:26:42,705 --> 00:26:46,125
Miss Amanda said she spent
six years in the dance circus.

420
00:26:46,125 --> 00:26:47,668
Oh, "circuit."

421
00:26:49,503 --> 00:26:52,173
She's really good.
I saw a video of her last night.

422
00:26:52,173 --> 00:26:54,842
You took dance lessons at my age.
Right, Dad?

423
00:26:54,842 --> 00:26:56,886
- I did.
- Were you any good?

424
00:26:56,886 --> 00:27:01,015
Uh, I was okay, but you definitely
outshine me in that department.

425
00:27:01,015 --> 00:27:05,394
But even though it was a long time ago,
you never really forget, right?

426
00:27:05,394 --> 00:27:07,188
Like riding a bike.

427
00:27:07,188 --> 00:27:08,606
Okay. Spill it.

428
00:27:08,606 --> 00:27:10,900
- What?
- You're fishing.

429
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:12,651
- I'm not!
- You...

430
00:27:15,279 --> 00:27:18,699
There's a big dance competition.
Christine needs a partner.

431
00:27:18,699 --> 00:27:23,371
Oh, sweetie, I think there are
much better options out there than me.

432
00:27:23,371 --> 00:27:26,665
You always say if someone needs help,
we should help them.

433
00:27:26,665 --> 00:27:28,459
It's rule number three.

434
00:27:28,459 --> 00:27:31,253
Oh, right. The etiquette book.

435
00:27:31,253 --> 00:27:34,590
If it had anything to do
with tax deductions, I'd be there.

436
00:27:34,590 --> 00:27:38,386
But I think this is a little bit
out of Daddy's wheelhouse.

437
00:27:38,386 --> 00:27:42,056
But she's just been so nice to us.

438
00:27:42,056 --> 00:27:46,227
I know, sweetheart.
It is a very thoughtful idea.

439
00:27:46,227 --> 00:27:48,896
You're such a kind person, and I love you.

440
00:27:48,896 --> 00:27:51,857
Okay. Go have fun. I'll see you later.

441
00:27:55,903 --> 00:27:59,657
Alright. Today's class is going to be
a little bit different.

442
00:27:59,657 --> 00:28:01,700
We have a special guest.

443
00:28:02,952 --> 00:28:04,829
Wow!
- Right on time.

444
00:28:04,829 --> 00:28:07,206
You all know this is Christine Sims.

445
00:28:07,206 --> 00:28:09,750
- Hello!
- You also know Christine

446
00:28:09,750 --> 00:28:12,878
is a very accomplished competitive dancer.

447
00:28:12,878 --> 00:28:16,048
- You've all seen the videos.
- Please don't look those up.

448
00:28:16,048 --> 00:28:20,386
Christine is going to be with us today
in class, offering her advice.

449
00:28:20,386 --> 00:28:23,347
I am so happy
to be here with you guys.

450
00:28:23,347 --> 00:28:26,434
You know, this is where I got my start.

451
00:28:26,434 --> 00:28:30,312
Right here in this very same dance studio,
many years ago.

452
00:28:30,312 --> 00:28:31,230
Wow!

453
00:28:32,356 --> 00:28:36,402
Okay, the key to turns is a tight tummy,
so hold onto the bar, go on your toes,

454
00:28:36,402 --> 00:28:37,695
and tighten your tummy.

455
00:28:37,695 --> 00:28:38,612
Good, good.

456
00:28:38,612 --> 00:28:41,115
And then, from there,
turns are easier. Look.

457
00:28:42,616 --> 00:28:45,286
See? Okay, tighten your tummy,
heels together.

458
00:28:45,286 --> 00:28:46,954
Good. Tight, tight, tight.

459
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:52,376
Heels together. Toes...
Yes, perfect! That's so good.

460
00:28:55,171 --> 00:28:58,674
- Thank you so much for coming today.
- I loved being here.

461
00:28:58,674 --> 00:29:00,217
- Excuse me, Christine?
- Hey!

462
00:29:00,217 --> 00:29:03,053
I moved my flowers.
I don't think it's working.

463
00:29:03,053 --> 00:29:06,223
Well, it's only been one day,

464
00:29:06,223 --> 00:29:09,393
but... if you want,
I could come take a look.

465
00:29:09,393 --> 00:29:12,021
- Can you?
- If your dad says it's okay.

466
00:29:12,938 --> 00:29:14,440
Hey, T. Let's go!

467
00:29:23,616 --> 00:29:26,494
Oh, I think he'll definitely say yes.

468
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,217
- Christine!
Hey!

469
00:29:41,217 --> 00:29:44,178
Thanks for coming. Hi! Well...

470
00:29:44,178 --> 00:29:46,347
Okay, let's take a look. Yeah.

471
00:29:46,347 --> 00:29:48,265
So, is-- is this it?

472
00:29:48,265 --> 00:29:49,183
Yeah.

473
00:29:49,850 --> 00:29:52,228
Okay. Yeah? Um...

474
00:29:54,230 --> 00:29:56,023
A lot of clay in this soil.

475
00:29:57,399 --> 00:30:01,237
Did you just move dirt from the backyard
and put it in the planters?

476
00:30:03,823 --> 00:30:06,116
Kind of. I don't...

477
00:30:06,116 --> 00:30:09,411
It's okay. We sell a great soil starter
at the store.

478
00:30:09,411 --> 00:30:13,624
Oh, unless you'd rather buy one online,
if that's easier.

479
00:30:13,624 --> 00:30:15,584
I will pick some up in the morning.

480
00:30:15,584 --> 00:30:18,838
Okay.
I'll have my mom put some aside.

481
00:30:18,838 --> 00:30:20,673
And, also, some marigolds.

482
00:30:20,673 --> 00:30:24,051
They'd be so pretty here,
and they do really well.

483
00:30:26,095 --> 00:30:27,555
Do you like lasagna?

484
00:30:29,473 --> 00:30:31,100
Uh...

485
00:30:31,100 --> 00:30:33,978
- Yeah.
- Would you like to join us for dinner?

486
00:30:35,271 --> 00:30:37,273
Um, sure, okay.

487
00:30:37,273 --> 00:30:39,066
- Come on.
- Okay. Okay.

488
00:30:39,066 --> 00:30:41,902
I don't know what I'm doing.

489
00:30:43,112 --> 00:30:45,698
Now, cooking, on the other hand...

490
00:30:45,698 --> 00:30:47,908
Alright, I got Taylor doing some homework,

491
00:30:47,908 --> 00:30:51,996
but she made me promise
we'd have absolutely no fun without her.

492
00:30:51,996 --> 00:30:53,873
She is such a great kid.

493
00:30:53,873 --> 00:30:56,417
She is my everything.
Hey, what are you doing?

494
00:30:56,417 --> 00:30:58,586
- You're our guest.
- I don't mind.

495
00:30:58,586 --> 00:31:02,006
But you've already been so kind,
helping out with the garden.

496
00:31:02,006 --> 00:31:04,091
It seems really important to her.

497
00:31:04,091 --> 00:31:09,430
Yeah, well, we had a, uh--
a rooftop garden in our last apartment--

498
00:31:09,430 --> 00:31:13,309
Here. And... it was big,
and it had lots of flowers,

499
00:31:13,309 --> 00:31:16,520
and it was just
her favorite place in the world.

500
00:31:17,813 --> 00:31:19,648
Why did you leave Chicago?

501
00:31:20,733 --> 00:31:24,069
Um, I wanted to get Taylor
out of the city.

502
00:31:24,069 --> 00:31:27,573
I thought a fresh start
would be good for her.

503
00:31:27,573 --> 00:31:30,284
Well, good for both of us.

504
00:31:30,284 --> 00:31:36,248
My wife passed away a couple years ago,
and that place had a lot of memories.

505
00:31:37,583 --> 00:31:40,336
- I'm sorry.
- No, it's okay.

506
00:31:40,336 --> 00:31:43,255
Do you want some more water?
I got grape juice.

507
00:31:43,255 --> 00:31:45,174
I would've picked up some wine

508
00:31:45,174 --> 00:31:48,844
if I knew I was dining
with the local celebrity.

509
00:31:49,678 --> 00:31:52,181
- Cover's blown, huh?
- Small town, remember?

510
00:31:52,181 --> 00:31:53,474
Right.

511
00:31:54,350 --> 00:31:56,143
Oh.

512
00:31:56,143 --> 00:31:57,061
Hello.

513
00:31:58,687 --> 00:31:59,563
Maybe...

514
00:31:59,563 --> 00:32:02,066
Mint chocolate chip
is my favorite ice cream.

515
00:32:02,066 --> 00:32:03,609
- 'Cause it's the best.
- Yeah!

516
00:32:03,609 --> 00:32:05,861
- Yeah?
- Yeah. Can I help?

517
00:32:05,861 --> 00:32:08,948
Please, sit. Allow me.

518
00:32:15,412 --> 00:32:16,872
Um...

519
00:32:17,665 --> 00:32:21,126
Is it okay if I ask you
why you stopped dancing?

520
00:32:21,126 --> 00:32:24,213
Oh. Yeah, sure.

521
00:32:24,213 --> 00:32:27,299
My partner, Alex-- Alex Ivanov--

522
00:32:27,299 --> 00:32:32,221
he was this very intense,
very talented Russian ballroom dancer.

523
00:32:32,221 --> 00:32:36,016
His parents and he moved here
from Moscow when he was 15,

524
00:32:36,016 --> 00:32:38,352
and we started dancing right away.

525
00:32:40,020 --> 00:32:42,231
- He upped my game, that's for sure.
- Mm-hmm.

526
00:32:42,231 --> 00:32:44,525
And we were very successful for years.

527
00:32:44,525 --> 00:32:48,153
In fact, we were close
to our third national championship.

528
00:32:48,153 --> 00:32:50,864
Wow.
- Yeah.

529
00:32:50,864 --> 00:32:54,326
But... then it came time
for the big finale move.

530
00:32:54,326 --> 00:32:56,578
The Barofski Leap.

531
00:32:57,913 --> 00:32:59,915
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

532
00:33:01,709 --> 00:33:04,461
Yeah, but, uh...

533
00:33:04,461 --> 00:33:07,464
We didn't connect.
And I ended up on the floor.

534
00:33:09,091 --> 00:33:10,259
Ooh.

535
00:33:11,385 --> 00:33:14,972
It's a long story,
but we parted ways shortly afterwards,

536
00:33:14,972 --> 00:33:16,598
and I never looked back.

537
00:33:16,598 --> 00:33:18,976
- I'm sorry.
- Don't be.

538
00:33:19,935 --> 00:33:20,769
- Mmm!
- Mm-hmm.

539
00:33:20,769 --> 00:33:23,439
- So good.
- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

540
00:33:23,439 --> 00:33:25,774
I think everything happens for a reason.

541
00:33:25,774 --> 00:33:28,277
I went back to school,
got a degree in business,

542
00:33:28,277 --> 00:33:31,280
figured out
that I am pretty good at it and I love it.

543
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,200
I'm starting a job in Seattle
next month at a big consulting firm.

544
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,077
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

545
00:33:37,077 --> 00:33:39,621
So, strategic development, optimization?

546
00:33:39,621 --> 00:33:41,665
Yes! Yeah.

547
00:33:41,665 --> 00:33:45,627
Yeah, so, anyway, dance was great,
but it was time to move on.

548
00:33:45,627 --> 00:33:48,881
But you want to compete again?

549
00:33:51,633 --> 00:33:52,843
Small town.

550
00:33:52,843 --> 00:33:55,804
Right. Small town.

551
00:33:55,804 --> 00:33:57,848
Taylor actually overheard you.

552
00:33:57,848 --> 00:33:58,766
Oh.

553
00:33:59,475 --> 00:34:03,312
I'm thinking about it.
The prize money is substantial.

554
00:34:03,312 --> 00:34:04,396
Oh.

555
00:34:04,396 --> 00:34:07,316
And, um...

556
00:34:07,316 --> 00:34:09,860
the bank is hiking the rent
on my parents' store,

557
00:34:09,860 --> 00:34:12,988
and they'll have to turn in the keys
by the end of the year.

558
00:34:12,988 --> 00:34:14,948
- That's terrible.
- It really is.

559
00:34:14,948 --> 00:34:17,659
And not just for them, but for everyone.

560
00:34:17,659 --> 00:34:20,329
I mean, this town needs
Sims' General Store.

561
00:34:21,580 --> 00:34:25,876
But I'd have to find
a new partner, and I'm out of practice,

562
00:34:25,876 --> 00:34:28,462
and it's probably not gonna happen.

563
00:34:31,465 --> 00:34:32,841
I'll dance with you.

564
00:34:34,635 --> 00:34:35,552
Huh?

565
00:34:36,553 --> 00:34:38,639
You need a partner. I volunteer.

566
00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:40,766
I couldn't ask you to do that.

567
00:34:40,766 --> 00:34:43,268
You're not asking. I'm offering.

568
00:34:43,268 --> 00:34:46,772
Okay, I know I'm no Fred Astaire,
but, you know, I can learn.

569
00:34:46,772 --> 00:34:49,024
I've still got a few moves in me.

570
00:34:49,024 --> 00:34:51,568
I am really good under pressure.

571
00:34:51,568 --> 00:34:55,280
I played college baseball,
Division I, until I got injured.

572
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,535
But you and I can get started, and if
a more qualified partner comes along,

573
00:34:59,535 --> 00:35:01,328
you're already ahead of the game.

574
00:35:01,328 --> 00:35:02,788
What, you're serious?

575
00:35:02,788 --> 00:35:06,583
I'm offering 'cause I'd like to help.

576
00:35:08,168 --> 00:35:09,878
Okay. There are three dances--

577
00:35:09,878 --> 00:35:12,506
the qualifiers,
the semi-finals, the finals.

578
00:35:12,506 --> 00:35:16,468
They're short,
but we'd have to train every day.

579
00:35:16,468 --> 00:35:19,680
- I can get out of work by 4:00.
- We'd be a long shot.

580
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:23,350
Who doesn't love an underdog?

581
00:35:23,350 --> 00:35:26,478
Come on, what do you say? It'll be fun!

582
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:29,690
Okay!

583
00:35:29,690 --> 00:35:31,150
Yay!

584
00:35:31,150 --> 00:35:34,653
See? We already have
our first supporter in the stands.

585
00:35:34,653 --> 00:35:36,572
And we're gonna need it.

586
00:35:43,162 --> 00:35:45,038
- Oh, hey, Coach.

587
00:35:45,956 --> 00:35:48,083
We can skip the formalities.

588
00:35:48,083 --> 00:35:51,712
I am not as flexible
as I once was, it turns out.

589
00:35:51,712 --> 00:35:53,422
Ooh!

590
00:35:53,422 --> 00:35:55,591
Are you sure you're up for this?

591
00:35:55,591 --> 00:35:58,635
You could back out now.
No hard feelings, promise.

592
00:35:58,635 --> 00:36:01,555
I might be
a little out of practice, but...

593
00:36:01,555 --> 00:36:03,348
Okay, a lot out of practice,

594
00:36:03,348 --> 00:36:06,393
but I can learn a few one-minute routines
in three months.

595
00:36:06,393 --> 00:36:07,936
Three weeks.

596
00:36:10,355 --> 00:36:14,443
- We should probably get started.
- Yeah, good idea. Okay. Okay.

597
00:36:14,443 --> 00:36:17,112
First thing is the frame.
Right-- right there.

598
00:36:17,112 --> 00:36:18,655
Yes, yes, yes. Good. Good.

599
00:36:18,655 --> 00:36:23,118
Chest up, but not out.
Good. Good. Great, perfect.

600
00:36:24,036 --> 00:36:28,123
- Okay, where to? Spin again?
- Okay. Yes, good.

601
00:36:28,123 --> 00:36:31,418
So, remember, this hand,
right above my head.

602
00:36:31,418 --> 00:36:34,588
- Good, and this way, good.
- Just--

603
00:36:34,588 --> 00:36:36,215
- Yeah, that felt better.
- Good.

604
00:36:36,215 --> 00:36:39,301
So, now, let's link that
to the rolling of the arms move.

605
00:36:39,301 --> 00:36:40,928
- That's so hard.
- You got this.

606
00:36:40,928 --> 00:36:43,013
- Got to do it. Let's go.
- You got this.

607
00:36:43,013 --> 00:36:43,931
- Yep.
- Okay.

608
00:36:43,931 --> 00:36:45,557
- Okay, ready?

609
00:36:45,557 --> 00:36:49,603
Rock step, triple step,
double turn, rock step--

610
00:36:49,603 --> 00:36:51,563
Oh!

611
00:36:51,563 --> 00:36:53,982
Not crushing of the arms, rolling.

612
00:36:53,982 --> 00:36:56,485
Right. Yes, yes, good. Okay.

613
00:36:56,485 --> 00:36:58,779
Let's do something more fun for now.

614
00:36:58,779 --> 00:37:01,365
- Please.
- Okay. You seem strong.

615
00:37:01,365 --> 00:37:03,700
Ah.
- Yeah. So-- Okay, so, try this.

616
00:37:03,700 --> 00:37:05,619
Put your arms straight out in front.

617
00:37:05,619 --> 00:37:07,621
- Okay.
- Underneath mine.

618
00:37:07,621 --> 00:37:09,498
- Right here?
- Yes, good.

619
00:37:09,498 --> 00:37:11,458
Okay, now lift.

620
00:37:11,458 --> 00:37:12,709
Up?

621
00:37:12,709 --> 00:37:16,588
That is the traditional direction, yes.
Okay. Alright.

622
00:37:16,588 --> 00:37:18,340
Okay, two, one.

623
00:37:18,340 --> 00:37:20,717
- And... Yes, that's great!
- That was pretty--

624
00:37:20,717 --> 00:37:22,094
Oh!
- Mm!

625
00:37:22,803 --> 00:37:25,472
- Oh, I'm so sorry.
- I'm good. Happens all the time.

626
00:37:25,472 --> 00:37:27,182
- No, no.
- It's good.

627
00:37:27,182 --> 00:37:30,227
Okay. Okay, let's do it again.

628
00:37:30,227 --> 00:37:31,895
- Uh, can-- Okay.
- Yeah, yeah.

629
00:37:31,895 --> 00:37:33,021
- You okay?
- I'm fine.

630
00:37:33,021 --> 00:37:35,857
- Okay, ready? And...

631
00:37:35,857 --> 00:37:41,196
Rock step, triple step,
double turn, rock step, triple...

632
00:37:41,196 --> 00:37:43,323
Good, slow. And then walk, walk...

633
00:37:43,323 --> 00:37:46,493
I gotta walk and get some water,
I'm sorry. Just...

634
00:37:46,493 --> 00:37:48,787
Yeah, all good.

635
00:37:48,787 --> 00:37:52,124
Okay...

636
00:37:56,211 --> 00:37:59,464
Do you have any threes?
- Are you peeking at my cards?

637
00:37:59,464 --> 00:38:01,300
Hey!

638
00:38:01,300 --> 00:38:02,884
How was rehearsal, sweetheart?

639
00:38:02,884 --> 00:38:05,095
Great. Do we still have frozen peas?

640
00:38:05,095 --> 00:38:09,683
Yeah, but if you're hungry,
I made pot roast for dinner.

641
00:38:14,104 --> 00:38:15,981
Working a few kinks out, are you?

642
00:38:15,981 --> 00:38:17,899
Yeah, just a few.

643
00:38:17,899 --> 00:38:20,569
- It's your first day. You'll get there.
- Yeah.

644
00:38:20,569 --> 00:38:22,404
You want me to make you a plate?

645
00:38:22,404 --> 00:38:26,033
No, I'm gonna head up and take a bath.
A very long bath.

646
00:38:26,033 --> 00:38:27,451
But it's going great.

647
00:38:27,451 --> 00:38:29,161
Good.
- Enjoy.

648
00:38:31,371 --> 00:38:33,749
Fours. Do you have any fours?

649
00:38:33,749 --> 00:38:35,542
Go Fish, my lovely.

650
00:38:40,380 --> 00:38:42,716
Thank you for letting us use the studio.

651
00:38:42,716 --> 00:38:45,761
Of course. How'd it go?

652
00:38:45,761 --> 00:38:50,432
Well, two hours, and we didn't quite
make it past the first move.

653
00:38:50,432 --> 00:38:53,602
He'll get it. He's got a great teacher.

654
00:38:53,602 --> 00:38:57,606
I hope so. I mean, I knew
we'd be starting from scratch, but...

655
00:38:57,606 --> 00:39:00,317
It's not how you start,
it's how you finish.

656
00:39:00,317 --> 00:39:02,402
Right. Yeah.

657
00:39:02,402 --> 00:39:05,864
And he's a great partner.
He really listens, you know?

658
00:39:06,907 --> 00:39:10,369
Hmm. What kind of a partnership is this?

659
00:39:11,078 --> 00:39:12,704
What do you mean?

660
00:39:12,704 --> 00:39:15,499
Taylor told me about the dinner
you two had.

661
00:39:15,499 --> 00:39:19,211
No, no. It's not like that.
Besides, I'm going to Seattle soon.

662
00:39:19,211 --> 00:39:24,007
Right, for the consulting, optimizing,
"nobody knows what your job is" job?

663
00:39:24,007 --> 00:39:25,884
- Exactly.
- Mm-hmm.

664
00:39:33,225 --> 00:39:35,602
Oh, I've got those files you asked for.

665
00:39:35,602 --> 00:39:37,229
Oh, great.

666
00:39:38,647 --> 00:39:42,359
Yeah, just looking
into the recent rent hikes in the area.

667
00:39:42,359 --> 00:39:44,403
Sims' General Store is pretty popular?

668
00:39:44,403 --> 00:39:46,655
Oh, yeah. Been around for generations.

669
00:39:46,655 --> 00:39:48,657
I can't imagine Main Street without it.

670
00:39:48,657 --> 00:39:52,244
Um, I heard from a source
it might be closing soon.

671
00:39:52,244 --> 00:39:53,829
What source?

672
00:39:53,829 --> 00:39:56,206
My hairdresser's cousin's fiancé.

673
00:39:57,666 --> 00:40:00,001
I'll take your word for it.
Thanks.

674
00:40:00,001 --> 00:40:01,503
Can I get you anything else?

675
00:40:01,503 --> 00:40:04,798
- I was going on a coffee run.
- No, thanks. I've switched to tea.

676
00:40:04,798 --> 00:40:08,051
I actually have a lot of honey
to get through.

677
00:40:08,051 --> 00:40:12,347
Ah, Mrs. Tremblay.
- Mrs. Tremblay.

678
00:40:17,436 --> 00:40:19,354
I'll be right there.

679
00:40:20,397 --> 00:40:22,858
- Alex.
- Long time.

680
00:40:23,817 --> 00:40:25,152
You look great.

681
00:40:25,944 --> 00:40:28,572
Thank you. What are you doing here?

682
00:40:28,572 --> 00:40:30,866
I flew in for State Regionals.

683
00:40:31,700 --> 00:40:34,786
You're-- you're dancing
at State Regionals?

684
00:40:34,786 --> 00:40:36,371
Sure am.

685
00:40:37,247 --> 00:40:40,834
I-- I thought your partner was
on her honeymoon, or something.

686
00:40:40,834 --> 00:40:42,627
Keeping tabs on me?

687
00:40:42,627 --> 00:40:47,632
No. Amanda mentioned it. But...

688
00:40:47,632 --> 00:40:50,594
You always said swing was
an amateur's dance,

689
00:40:50,594 --> 00:40:52,512
meant for wedding receptions.

690
00:40:52,512 --> 00:40:54,264
We danced swing.

691
00:40:54,264 --> 00:40:57,017
Yeah, but only as part
of a five-dance combo

692
00:40:57,017 --> 00:40:58,768
with cha-cha and rumba and...

693
00:40:58,768 --> 00:41:00,896
Remember, the real dances?

694
00:41:01,938 --> 00:41:03,315
Isn't this beneath you?

695
00:41:04,608 --> 00:41:06,610
I could use the prize money.

696
00:41:06,610 --> 00:41:09,112
Our training center needs renovations.

697
00:41:09,112 --> 00:41:10,614
Ah.

698
00:41:11,615 --> 00:41:13,492
Who are you dancing with?

699
00:41:13,492 --> 00:41:16,453
I have a few options.

700
00:41:16,453 --> 00:41:19,664
I can't believe I ran into you.
What are the odds?

701
00:41:19,664 --> 00:41:21,666
Well, it is my parents' store.

702
00:41:21,666 --> 00:41:23,543
But I heard you were in New York.

703
00:41:23,543 --> 00:41:27,214
- Keeping tabs on me?
- Maybe.

704
00:41:29,633 --> 00:41:31,635
A dollar fifty.

705
00:41:33,470 --> 00:41:36,473
I'll be here for a few weeks.
I'll see you around.

706
00:41:36,473 --> 00:41:38,099
Yeah.

707
00:41:55,367 --> 00:41:58,954
It was surreal seeing him again.
He looks the same.

708
00:42:00,372 --> 00:42:02,874
- I never liked the boy.
- Dad...

709
00:42:02,874 --> 00:42:07,170
I did. When you brought him for dinner,
he came with flowers. It was sweet.

710
00:42:07,170 --> 00:42:10,340
If Alex is competing,
there's no way Matthew and I can win.

711
00:42:10,340 --> 00:42:13,051
Now, that doesn't sound a bit like you.

712
00:42:13,051 --> 00:42:14,386
It's the reality.

713
00:42:14,386 --> 00:42:16,304
Well, it's not all about winning.

714
00:42:16,304 --> 00:42:20,100
Mm, in this case, it is.

715
00:42:20,100 --> 00:42:23,061
Since when have you backed away
from a challenge?

716
00:42:44,916 --> 00:42:48,712
- See? I knew we'd see each other again.

717
00:42:48,712 --> 00:42:51,214
Oh. Did Amanda have you talk
to her classes?

718
00:42:51,214 --> 00:42:55,719
I swing by whenever I'm in town.
Can't forget where you came from.

719
00:42:58,054 --> 00:43:02,350
So, you neglected to mention
you're also competing at State Regionals.

720
00:43:02,350 --> 00:43:06,813
- Did I?
- Yes, you did. So, who is he?

721
00:43:07,439 --> 00:43:09,608
- Who?
- Your partner.

722
00:43:09,608 --> 00:43:11,860
Is it Stevens?

723
00:43:11,860 --> 00:43:13,486
Cortez?

724
00:43:13,486 --> 00:43:16,698
Garcia.
You pulled him out of retirement.

725
00:43:16,698 --> 00:43:18,867
It's not Garcia. You don't know him.

726
00:43:18,867 --> 00:43:20,619
I know everyone.

727
00:43:22,662 --> 00:43:25,540
- Matthew Russell.
- Russell?

728
00:43:26,166 --> 00:43:29,210
Yeah, he's outside
the National Dance circuits.

729
00:43:29,210 --> 00:43:32,839
- Collegiate?
- Accounting.

730
00:43:33,715 --> 00:43:35,383
You're dancing with an amateur?

731
00:43:35,383 --> 00:43:38,011
Yeah, but you know, he has training.

732
00:43:38,011 --> 00:43:39,304
Really?

733
00:43:39,304 --> 00:43:43,600
Yeah, he actually has come a long way,
and he is gonna do great.

734
00:43:44,684 --> 00:43:49,314
Hey, I have been practicing all weekend,
and I can finally touch my toes.

735
00:43:49,314 --> 00:43:52,609
- Uh...

736
00:43:52,609 --> 00:43:53,902
Oh. Hey.

737
00:43:53,902 --> 00:43:57,238
Hi. Sorry. Hi. Matthew.

738
00:43:58,156 --> 00:43:59,574
Alex.

739
00:44:02,369 --> 00:44:05,080
- Alex. Alex.
- Mm-hmm.

740
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,831
Okay. Wow.

741
00:44:06,831 --> 00:44:09,209
I've, uh, heard so much about you.

742
00:44:09,209 --> 00:44:11,586
All good things, I hope.

743
00:44:14,464 --> 00:44:18,176
Well, I'll leave you to your rehearsal.

744
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,138
Wouldn't want you to waste
a minute of preparation.

745
00:44:27,727 --> 00:44:31,481
So, that's your, uh,
your ex dance partner?

746
00:44:31,481 --> 00:44:35,151
- Yeah.
- He's, uh... he's pretty intense.

747
00:44:35,151 --> 00:44:38,613
- Yeah. Let's get to work.
- Let's do it.

748
00:44:40,990 --> 00:44:42,909
Okay, one more time. Okay.

749
00:44:42,909 --> 00:44:47,956
Rock step, triple step,
double turn, rock step,

750
00:44:47,956 --> 00:44:50,959
one and two, walk, walk, and then--

751
00:44:50,959 --> 00:44:53,753
Oh, oh!
- What is that?

752
00:44:53,753 --> 00:44:56,881
Okay. Let's go. Let's do it again.
I can do this.

753
00:44:57,465 --> 00:44:59,384
I told you, I'm competitive.

754
00:44:59,384 --> 00:45:01,970
- You're doing great.
- I'm not, though.

755
00:45:04,264 --> 00:45:08,643
I just want you to stop thinking so much
and start feeling. Here, take my hand.

756
00:45:08,643 --> 00:45:11,646
It's a push-pull. There's a connection.

757
00:45:11,646 --> 00:45:15,483
Just feel the connection,
feel the joy in us moving together.

758
00:45:15,483 --> 00:45:18,778
Dance is synergy and fun.

759
00:45:18,778 --> 00:45:21,906
Just... get out of your head.

760
00:45:21,906 --> 00:45:24,325
I've never been good
at doing that, though.

761
00:45:28,663 --> 00:45:31,416
I may have an idea. Are you free tonight?

762
00:45:32,750 --> 00:45:33,835
I could be.

763
00:45:34,419 --> 00:45:37,714
I want you to meet me somewhere.
I think it'll help.

764
00:45:41,843 --> 00:45:43,178
- Hey!
- Howdy!

765
00:45:43,178 --> 00:45:44,929
Here we are.

766
00:45:44,929 --> 00:45:47,682
- This is not what I expected.
- What were you expecting?

767
00:45:47,682 --> 00:45:51,686
I don't know,
something a little less... country? But...

768
00:45:51,686 --> 00:45:53,980
- I like it!

769
00:45:53,980 --> 00:45:55,899
Alright!
- I'm excited.

770
00:45:56,941 --> 00:45:59,110
We used to come here to dance.

771
00:45:59,110 --> 00:46:02,655
No judges, no awards on the line.
Just for fun.

772
00:46:02,655 --> 00:46:04,115
- Yeah, an escape.
- Yeah.

773
00:46:04,115 --> 00:46:07,243
I thought this wouldn't feel
like a lesson.

774
00:46:07,243 --> 00:46:08,369
Good thought.

775
00:46:08,369 --> 00:46:12,248
<i>♪ I love her, love her, love her
Working for my baby, I do ♪</i>

776
00:46:12,248 --> 00:46:14,417
<i>♪ Well, I love her, love her, love her ♪</i>

777
00:46:14,417 --> 00:46:17,128
<i>♪ Working for my baby, I do ♪</i>

778
00:46:17,128 --> 00:46:20,131
Wow, you weren't kidding.
He is really good.

779
00:46:20,131 --> 00:46:23,426
<i>♪ Working for my baby, I do. ♪</i>

780
00:46:26,971 --> 00:46:28,473
Can I buy you a drink?

781
00:46:28,473 --> 00:46:31,559
Oh, uh... No, no. After.
The dance floor awaits.

782
00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:34,062
- Already? Right in?
- Yes, sir.

783
00:46:34,062 --> 00:46:35,146
- Okay.
- Let's do it.

784
00:46:35,146 --> 00:46:36,898
Let's do it.

785
00:46:40,777 --> 00:46:42,237
Alright.

786
00:46:42,237 --> 00:46:43,780
- Okay.
- Okay.

787
00:46:43,780 --> 00:46:46,491
Ready? Okay. And...

788
00:46:47,784 --> 00:46:49,619
Triple step, triple step.

789
00:46:49,619 --> 00:46:50,954
- Right.
- Back step.

790
00:46:50,954 --> 00:46:53,957
Don't look at your feet, look at me.
Loosen up.

791
00:46:53,957 --> 00:46:55,333
Gosh, listen and have fun.

792
00:46:55,333 --> 00:46:57,460
- Fun, fun.
- Yeah. Ready?

793
00:47:00,004 --> 00:47:02,257
Yes, yes, yes.

794
00:47:02,257 --> 00:47:03,508
There we go! Yes, yes.

795
00:47:03,508 --> 00:47:05,385
Here we go. Here we go.

796
00:47:07,428 --> 00:47:11,766
Rock step, triple step, triple, rock step.

797
00:47:12,392 --> 00:47:13,768
Yes.

798
00:47:14,310 --> 00:47:16,813
Rock step. Yes!

799
00:47:19,148 --> 00:47:20,608
Whee!

800
00:47:20,608 --> 00:47:22,569
Wow! Woo!

801
00:47:25,029 --> 00:47:27,365
- I got it!
- It was so good!

802
00:47:27,365 --> 00:47:29,117
- Thank you. We were good!
- You were great.

803
00:47:29,117 --> 00:47:31,035
And I didn't step on your feet.

804
00:47:32,287 --> 00:47:33,830
Can I get us some waters?

805
00:47:33,830 --> 00:47:35,373
Make mine a ginger ale.

806
00:47:35,373 --> 00:47:38,668
Whoa, risk-taker! Look at you!

807
00:47:38,668 --> 00:47:40,962
It seems you two had a breakthrough.

808
00:47:40,962 --> 00:47:45,091
I just had to loosen him up a little bit.
Stop thinking and start feeling.

809
00:47:45,925 --> 00:47:48,636
Oh, I think he's feeling, alright.

810
00:47:50,930 --> 00:47:55,435
You know you can't confuse chemistry
on the dance floor with real life.

811
00:47:55,435 --> 00:48:00,023
Hmm. I know that and you know that,
but does he know that?

812
00:48:00,898 --> 00:48:02,358
- Here you go.
- Thank you.

813
00:48:02,358 --> 00:48:03,860
- Hi!
- Cheers.

814
00:48:05,570 --> 00:48:07,488
Can I steal her away for a moment?

815
00:48:07,488 --> 00:48:10,116
Oh. I'm all danced out.

816
00:48:10,116 --> 00:48:11,576
Just one dance.

817
00:48:11,576 --> 00:48:13,286
For old time's sake.

818
00:48:13,286 --> 00:48:15,830
They've all been asking for it.

819
00:48:16,623 --> 00:48:19,208
Actually, I'd love to see it
and get some pointers.

820
00:48:21,794 --> 00:48:23,129
Okay.

821
00:48:23,504 --> 00:48:25,798
B-17.

822
00:48:25,798 --> 00:48:28,468
Come on, Peaches. Let's give 'em a show.

823
00:49:47,004 --> 00:49:50,174
Whoo!

824
00:49:50,174 --> 00:49:51,551
You still got it!

825
00:49:51,551 --> 00:49:52,468
Wow.

826
00:49:52,468 --> 00:49:55,430
You should've seen them back in the day.

827
00:49:55,430 --> 00:49:58,391
Why wasn't he her first choice?

828
00:49:58,391 --> 00:50:02,186
After they broke off the engagement,
things wouldn't be the same.

829
00:50:04,063 --> 00:50:07,525
Great job, guys. You still got it.

830
00:50:08,359 --> 00:50:10,069
Maybe a little.

831
00:50:10,069 --> 00:50:13,573
Coach, that was amazing.

832
00:50:13,573 --> 00:50:17,285
- So fun to watch. You're incredible.
- Thank you.

833
00:50:17,285 --> 00:50:20,747
- You expect me to do some of that?
- Yeah.

834
00:50:27,754 --> 00:50:30,465
Well, told you it was a long story.

835
00:50:31,382 --> 00:50:35,261
We were partners on the dance floor
for so many years.

836
00:50:35,261 --> 00:50:38,681
At one point, it just made sense
to be partners off.

837
00:50:38,681 --> 00:50:43,019
But he was... easily distracted.

838
00:50:44,061 --> 00:50:45,354
- Ah.
- Yeah.

839
00:50:45,354 --> 00:50:48,024
And he wasn't there for me, you know?

840
00:50:48,024 --> 00:50:51,652
Except for on the dance floor.
Sometimes, not even then.

841
00:50:51,652 --> 00:50:56,449
Anyway, ancient history.
He's moved on, so have I.

842
00:50:56,449 --> 00:50:59,452
He didn't look like
he'd moved very far at all.

843
00:50:59,452 --> 00:51:02,789
He can look any way he wants.

844
00:51:02,789 --> 00:51:04,999
I mean, I would never go back to him.

845
00:51:04,999 --> 00:51:07,168
- Oh, I'm sorry.
- No, it's okay. It's okay.

846
00:51:07,168 --> 00:51:09,420
No, no, no, I like that you care.

847
00:51:11,881 --> 00:51:13,633
Yeah?

848
00:51:16,511 --> 00:51:19,972
Anyway, do you think
this field trip helped?

849
00:51:19,972 --> 00:51:22,642
- Definitely.
- Good. Me too. See you tomorrow.

850
00:51:22,642 --> 00:51:24,852
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- Good.

851
00:51:26,479 --> 00:51:28,314
Drive safe.
- Thanks.

852
00:51:40,785 --> 00:51:42,578
Here we are.

853
00:51:43,788 --> 00:51:47,083
- I wonder what we're planting today.
- I guess we'll find out.

854
00:51:47,083 --> 00:51:48,000
Hello!

855
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:50,378
Welcome back. Ready for round two?

856
00:51:50,378 --> 00:51:53,714
- So glad you could make it.
- Yeah, glad to be here.

857
00:51:53,714 --> 00:51:56,551
You know, I kind of miss the tie.

858
00:51:56,551 --> 00:51:58,427
I can't w...

859
00:51:58,427 --> 00:52:00,596
Hey, let's go see Charlotte, shall we?

860
00:52:00,596 --> 00:52:03,015
- Can I?
- Of course you can. Have fun.

861
00:52:04,892 --> 00:52:06,769
Have fun!
- Wow.

862
00:52:09,313 --> 00:52:12,608
You know, if I may say,
you seem really happy.

863
00:52:12,608 --> 00:52:16,654
I don't know what your normal level
of happiness is, but...

864
00:52:16,654 --> 00:52:18,281
I am happy.

865
00:52:18,281 --> 00:52:19,991
I love it here.

866
00:52:19,991 --> 00:52:22,618
And the store...

867
00:52:22,618 --> 00:52:25,496
I mean, I'm excited about Seattle, but...

868
00:52:26,497 --> 00:52:31,168
It's funny. I think, as a kid,
I took all of this for granted.

869
00:52:31,168 --> 00:52:33,421
Well, you know, that's normal.

870
00:52:33,421 --> 00:52:37,550
Yeah, I just always assumed
I would have all of this to come home to.

871
00:52:38,467 --> 00:52:39,802
Then why did you leave?

872
00:52:41,345 --> 00:52:44,724
To make it in the big city.
Make my parents proud.

873
00:52:44,724 --> 00:52:48,769
I think your parents would be
proud of you no matter what.

874
00:52:54,025 --> 00:52:57,320
- Let's get you to work.
- That's why I'm here.

875
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:58,821
- There you go.
- Rake.

876
00:52:58,821 --> 00:53:01,032
- Have at it.
- Just over here? Just start?

877
00:53:01,032 --> 00:53:03,534
- Yep!
- Thank you. Hi!

878
00:53:09,624 --> 00:53:11,334
Thank you for coming.

879
00:53:12,251 --> 00:53:14,045
Yeah, did you have fun?

880
00:53:14,045 --> 00:53:15,922
Hey! How about this one?

881
00:53:15,922 --> 00:53:20,051
Christine, can I just talk to you
for a sec before...?

882
00:53:20,051 --> 00:53:21,677
Yeah, yeah.

883
00:53:23,304 --> 00:53:26,724
- What's up?
- Yeah, so I've...

884
00:53:26,724 --> 00:53:29,185
I was thinking about this
all night, and, uh...

885
00:53:31,479 --> 00:53:33,439
Are you sure you want to dance with me?

886
00:53:34,774 --> 00:53:36,108
Of course I do.

887
00:53:36,108 --> 00:53:40,363
'Cause I don't want you
to feel like... mm...

888
00:53:40,363 --> 00:53:41,781
you're stuck with me.

889
00:53:42,782 --> 00:53:46,035
I'm not dancing with you
out of any kind of obligation.

890
00:53:47,119 --> 00:53:49,830
I think we'll get there,
even if you don't.

891
00:53:51,290 --> 00:53:53,876
So, if anything, you're stuck with me.

892
00:53:57,463 --> 00:53:59,173
I choose you.

893
00:54:00,341 --> 00:54:01,676
I don't--

894
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,595
Okay, then. Uh...

895
00:54:04,595 --> 00:54:07,223
- Taylor's...
- Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, great.

896
00:54:07,223 --> 00:54:08,683
Thanks for coming.

897
00:54:08,683 --> 00:54:11,185
Thank you so much for today.
- Yeah.

898
00:54:17,984 --> 00:54:20,820
- Alex? How are you?
- Hi, Mr. Sims. Nice to see you.

899
00:54:20,820 --> 00:54:23,197
Yeah, you too. What are you up to?

900
00:54:28,995 --> 00:54:32,081
- Thanks again for helping my dad.
- Oh, my pleasure.

901
00:54:34,583 --> 00:54:36,460
- Afternoon, Mr. Sims.
- Matthew. Sweetie.

902
00:54:36,460 --> 00:54:38,504
Hi, Dad.
- What are we doing?

903
00:54:38,504 --> 00:54:41,757
Oh, I'm just putting the seed
in the store.

904
00:54:41,757 --> 00:54:43,426
Okay.

905
00:54:43,426 --> 00:54:45,803
I could use a little help,
if you don't mind.

906
00:54:45,803 --> 00:54:46,887
Thank you.

907
00:54:46,887 --> 00:54:48,764
- Sweetie, how are you?
- Yeah, good, good.

908
00:54:48,764 --> 00:54:50,891
That guy Alex is just everywhere, huh?

909
00:54:50,891 --> 00:54:53,769
- Yeah.
- Do you need--? Okay.

910
00:55:29,597 --> 00:55:30,681
That was quite a show.

911
00:55:32,183 --> 00:55:33,768
Thank you.

912
00:55:34,894 --> 00:55:38,647
I know Alex can be a little...
competitive.

913
00:55:40,316 --> 00:55:42,735
That is not the word I would have picked.

914
00:55:42,735 --> 00:55:44,403
Don't let him get to you.

915
00:55:44,403 --> 00:55:46,697
We'll show him on the dance floor.

916
00:55:46,697 --> 00:55:48,824
- Thanks.
- Hmm.

917
00:55:48,824 --> 00:55:50,409
- Can I keep this?
- Yes.

918
00:55:50,409 --> 00:55:52,536
- I'll see you later.
- Thanks for helping.

919
00:55:52,536 --> 00:55:54,163
You bet.

920
00:56:00,169 --> 00:56:03,005
- Mr. Sims, thank you.
- Well, thank you, Alex, believe me.

921
00:56:03,005 --> 00:56:05,007
- See you.
- Take care.

922
00:56:10,262 --> 00:56:13,224
Dad, do we have those marigold... seeds?

923
00:56:15,684 --> 00:56:17,436
Okay, what are you doing?

924
00:56:17,436 --> 00:56:20,397
I came here to see
if you'd be my partner for States.

925
00:56:21,148 --> 00:56:22,608
What?

926
00:56:22,608 --> 00:56:26,403
Dancing with you, it's obvious.
We still work well together.

927
00:56:26,403 --> 00:56:29,115
Yes, we do. But I have a partner.

928
00:56:30,950 --> 00:56:32,701
I heard about the store, Christine.

929
00:56:32,701 --> 00:56:35,704
Do you want to roll the dice
on some attorney?

930
00:56:35,704 --> 00:56:36,914
Accountant.

931
00:56:36,914 --> 00:56:41,585
With no professional dance experience.
I'm your best bet, we both know it.

932
00:56:43,295 --> 00:56:45,381
I'm not gonna drop you this time.

933
00:56:45,381 --> 00:56:47,341
I'm not worried you'll drop me.

934
00:56:48,843 --> 00:56:51,053
Okay, what's in this for you?

935
00:56:51,053 --> 00:56:53,764
What if I think you're my best bet?

936
00:56:56,517 --> 00:57:00,896
Thank you. But... I'm sorry, I can't.

937
00:57:02,273 --> 00:57:04,108
Alright.

938
00:57:04,108 --> 00:57:07,278
- I guess I'll see you, then.
- I guess so.

939
00:57:08,863 --> 00:57:11,866
- I'm not gonna hold back.
- Neither am I.

940
00:57:16,370 --> 00:57:21,876
Again!
Three, four, five, six, seven...!

941
00:57:21,876 --> 00:57:25,963
Sorry.
- It's okay. It's okay.

942
00:57:25,963 --> 00:57:28,591
Now, let's take a break. Yeah.

943
00:57:29,633 --> 00:57:33,721
We've been trying it for days.
I'm just not getting it.

944
00:57:33,721 --> 00:57:37,975
In the finals, we have no shot without it.

945
00:57:38,684 --> 00:57:41,145
There's nothing else
we can replace it with?

946
00:57:41,145 --> 00:57:43,606
Only something
of equal or greater difficulty.

947
00:57:45,232 --> 00:57:46,901
What about the Barofski?

948
00:57:49,487 --> 00:57:51,906
- The Barofski?
- Yeah.

949
00:57:51,906 --> 00:57:55,493
I've watched a bunch of videos on it.
I think I could do it.

950
00:57:55,493 --> 00:57:57,244
We're not doing the Barofski.

951
00:57:58,245 --> 00:58:02,124
Look, we'll get some rest
and try again tomorrow, yeah?

952
00:58:02,124 --> 00:58:04,376
Okay. I trust you.

953
00:58:10,049 --> 00:58:11,926
Yeah.

954
00:58:17,973 --> 00:58:22,019
Next time, I'll show you
how to make my famous Linzer Tort.

955
00:58:23,646 --> 00:58:26,482
Mr. Gregory's here.

956
00:58:26,482 --> 00:58:28,526
Oh, and your father's home.

957
00:58:30,694 --> 00:58:34,865
- Well, hello, everyone.
- Dad, we made chocolate chip cookies.

958
00:58:34,865 --> 00:58:38,202
- Ah, my favorite!
That's why we picked them.

959
00:58:38,202 --> 00:58:40,538
The last tray's in the oven,

960
00:58:40,538 --> 00:58:43,207
and you can pull them
when the timer goes off.

961
00:58:43,207 --> 00:58:44,583
- Sounds good.

962
00:58:44,583 --> 00:58:47,628
Thank you so much
for looking after her, Mrs. Gregory.

963
00:58:47,628 --> 00:58:50,172
What are neighbors for, hmm?

964
00:58:50,172 --> 00:58:53,968
- I saw your ride out there.
- He's always on time.

965
00:58:53,968 --> 00:58:55,886
Say hi to Mr. Gregory for me.

966
00:58:55,886 --> 00:59:00,140
- I will. Good night, sweetheart.
Good night, Mrs. Gregory.

967
00:59:00,140 --> 00:59:03,394
Thank you again, Mrs. Gregory.
Get home safe.

968
00:59:04,895 --> 00:59:08,440
Oh! Well, it looks like
you two had fun, huh?

969
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,610
- Those are not cool yet.
- They're better this way.

970
00:59:11,610 --> 00:59:14,363
Mm.

971
00:59:14,363 --> 00:59:16,615
You were right. You were right.

972
00:59:16,615 --> 00:59:19,410
Can you head upstairs
and get ready for bed?

973
00:59:19,410 --> 00:59:21,203
I'll be up in a sec.

974
00:59:22,204 --> 00:59:23,622
Mmm.

975
00:59:25,291 --> 00:59:27,376
- They're really good, though.
- Good night.

976
00:59:27,376 --> 00:59:29,253
I love you. Be up in a sec.

977
00:59:33,132 --> 00:59:35,634
Dad, are you hurt?

978
00:59:35,634 --> 00:59:36,552
Uh...

979
00:59:36,844 --> 00:59:39,346
No, it's just an old injury.

980
00:59:39,346 --> 00:59:43,017
A little ice, and it will be good as new.
I promise.

981
00:59:50,357 --> 00:59:52,067
Oof...

982
00:59:58,991 --> 01:00:02,578
I called a friend who makes
this amazing organic fertilizer.

983
01:00:02,578 --> 01:00:05,748
You could grow corn
in the Sahara with this stuff.

984
01:00:05,748 --> 01:00:08,584
It should do wonders for her garden.

985
01:00:08,584 --> 01:00:10,294
Thank you, that's...

986
01:00:10,294 --> 01:00:13,297
Hey! Break a leg, you two.
We're all rooting for ya.

987
01:00:13,297 --> 01:00:15,424
- Thanks, Janet.
- Thank you.

988
01:00:15,424 --> 01:00:18,302
Half the town has bought tickets
to our debut.

989
01:00:18,302 --> 01:00:19,970
Ooh, no pressure.

990
01:00:21,430 --> 01:00:23,223
One week left. We'll be ready?

991
01:00:23,223 --> 01:00:25,976
Yeah, we'll get there. We're doing great.

992
01:00:26,935 --> 01:00:29,563
Okay. Thank you.

993
01:00:30,397 --> 01:00:31,857
- You okay?

994
01:00:31,857 --> 01:00:34,485
I just... should watch where I'm going.

995
01:00:36,028 --> 01:00:38,530
- See you tonight, yeah?
- I'll be there.

996
01:00:38,530 --> 01:00:40,824
Yeah, okay.

997
01:00:47,414 --> 01:00:52,503
Seven, eight.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

998
01:00:53,087 --> 01:00:54,797
Let's get-- Yeah.

999
01:00:54,797 --> 01:00:57,966
One, two, three-- Okay. Five-- No, no, no.

1000
01:01:01,762 --> 01:01:05,224
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

1001
01:01:05,224 --> 01:01:07,309
- Yes!
- Okay, yeah, yeah!

1002
01:01:07,643 --> 01:01:09,061
Woo!

1003
01:01:09,853 --> 01:01:11,105
That's pretty.

1004
01:01:27,746 --> 01:01:28,956
Yes! Oh!

1005
01:01:56,275 --> 01:01:59,194
He's doing so great,
but we don't stand a chance

1006
01:01:59,194 --> 01:02:01,155
without the high-point closer.

1007
01:02:01,155 --> 01:02:04,366
- He still can't get the step?
- Not yet.

1008
01:02:04,366 --> 01:02:08,287
- He said he wants to try the Barofski.
- You think he could do it?

1009
01:02:08,287 --> 01:02:10,205
I mean, he's strong enough, but...

1010
01:02:10,205 --> 01:02:11,999
So, what's the problem?

1011
01:02:11,999 --> 01:02:15,461
But to run
and jump like that? Um...

1012
01:02:15,461 --> 01:02:17,796
You remember what happened last time?

1013
01:02:17,796 --> 01:02:22,009
Yeah. Alex got distracted and dropped you.

1014
01:02:22,009 --> 01:02:24,011
This is a little different.

1015
01:02:25,345 --> 01:02:29,308
It's just hard to...
trust someone that much.

1016
01:02:30,934 --> 01:02:33,645
Are we still talking about dancing?

1017
01:02:35,898 --> 01:02:39,401
Chris, look.
You gotta take the leap sometime.

1018
01:02:40,778 --> 01:02:45,240
You need to ask yourself
if he's the one you want to take it with.

1019
01:02:49,787 --> 01:02:51,371
Come on.

1020
01:02:57,127 --> 01:02:58,879
Hello?

1021
01:02:58,879 --> 01:03:00,964
- Oh, hey, come in.
- Hi...

1022
01:03:00,964 --> 01:03:03,050
Sorry to bother you.

1023
01:03:03,050 --> 01:03:06,720
I know we talked about
using today as a rest day, but...

1024
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:08,680
You would like to practice.

1025
01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:10,557
Can you?

1026
01:03:13,101 --> 01:03:14,436
Absolutely.

1027
01:03:14,436 --> 01:03:17,356
Thank you. You're the best, really.

1028
01:03:17,356 --> 01:03:18,565
Oh...

1029
01:03:21,819 --> 01:03:24,029
- Are these our books?
- They are.

1030
01:03:24,029 --> 01:03:26,573
I thought I would take another look.

1031
01:03:26,573 --> 01:03:29,159
That's amazing.

1032
01:03:29,159 --> 01:03:33,872
The prize money is a short-term solution,
and even if they had an extra year,

1033
01:03:33,872 --> 01:03:38,293
they would need to find a new strategy
to better monetize their assets.

1034
01:03:38,293 --> 01:03:39,711
Yeah.

1035
01:03:39,711 --> 01:03:42,673
- Have you found anything?
- Maybe.

1036
01:03:42,673 --> 01:03:45,759
You're an MBA, I'm a CPA.

1037
01:03:45,759 --> 01:03:48,220
Together, we should be able
to figure this out.

1038
01:03:48,220 --> 01:03:50,222
Yeah, we should.

1039
01:03:50,222 --> 01:03:51,139
Um...

1040
01:03:51,139 --> 01:03:55,435
I thought we'd start
with that unused acreage.

1041
01:03:55,435 --> 01:03:58,105
- Okay.
- It's full of potential.

1042
01:03:58,105 --> 01:04:01,108
Okay, Mrs. Gregory's
gonna pop over here soon.

1043
01:04:01,108 --> 01:04:03,610
I won't be too long tonight, I promise.

1044
01:04:05,571 --> 01:04:09,199
- What are you watching?
- Alex Ivanov's Nationals video.

1045
01:04:09,199 --> 01:04:10,117
Huh.

1046
01:04:10,117 --> 01:04:14,121
- He got the highest score on record.
- Yeah, of course he did.

1047
01:04:14,121 --> 01:04:16,123
Dad, you're gonna be incredible.

1048
01:04:16,123 --> 01:04:17,416
Oh, yeah? Why is that?

1049
01:04:17,416 --> 01:04:19,626
'Cause you have something he doesn't.

1050
01:04:19,626 --> 01:04:21,545
What, a trick knee?

1051
01:04:22,713 --> 01:04:24,214
Christine.

1052
01:04:25,132 --> 01:04:27,467
- Hmm. Yeah.

1053
01:04:27,467 --> 01:04:29,177
Well, that'll be her. Um...

1054
01:04:29,177 --> 01:04:31,346
End the screen time. Best behavior?

1055
01:04:31,346 --> 01:04:33,849
I'm always on my best behavior.

1056
01:04:33,849 --> 01:04:35,350
That's true.

1057
01:04:35,350 --> 01:04:37,603
- Have fun, Dad.
- Thanks, T.

1058
01:04:41,356 --> 01:04:43,942
Hello, Mrs. Gregory.
Thanks for coming over.

1059
01:04:46,612 --> 01:04:49,865
Five, six, seven, eight.
And one, two, three, four.

1060
01:04:49,865 --> 01:04:53,327
Five and six, seven, eight.
One and two, three and four.

1061
01:04:53,327 --> 01:04:55,037
Five and six, seven, eight.

1062
01:04:55,037 --> 01:05:00,083
One and two, three, four,
five and six, and seven and eight.

1063
01:05:00,083 --> 01:05:02,044
This... and then...

1064
01:05:03,128 --> 01:05:06,632
Yes! Twice around, and then down.

1065
01:05:06,632 --> 01:05:09,092
- And then...
Boom!

1066
01:05:09,092 --> 01:05:10,344
- Whoa-ho-ho!

1067
01:05:10,344 --> 01:05:12,095
- We did it!
- Can you believe it?

1068
01:05:12,095 --> 01:05:13,805
- You were great!
- I really was!

1069
01:05:15,182 --> 01:05:16,767
Huh.

1070
01:05:17,517 --> 01:05:19,728
- What's wrong?
- Huh?

1071
01:05:19,728 --> 01:05:21,980
Nothing. No, I'm good.

1072
01:05:21,980 --> 01:05:23,690
Doesn't look like nothing.

1073
01:05:27,569 --> 01:05:31,198
- What aren't you telling me?
I just--

1074
01:05:31,198 --> 01:05:34,493
You know, just, sometimes
when I push too hard, it swells up,

1075
01:05:34,493 --> 01:05:37,746
but, honestly, I think it's gonna be okay.

1076
01:05:37,746 --> 01:05:39,206
That does not look okay.

1077
01:05:39,206 --> 01:05:41,583
It looks a lot worse
than it feels.

1078
01:05:41,583 --> 01:05:43,460
Yeah? Then walk to me.

1079
01:05:43,460 --> 01:05:46,171
Wa-- Okay.

1080
01:05:50,384 --> 01:05:53,261
- How long has it been like that?
- Not long.

1081
01:05:53,261 --> 01:05:56,390
It just needs to rest for a few days.

1082
01:05:56,390 --> 01:05:58,350
The competition's in three days.

1083
01:05:58,350 --> 01:06:02,145
Then I will push through.
It might be better by then.

1084
01:06:02,145 --> 01:06:04,606
I'm not gonna let you hurt yourself.

1085
01:06:06,525 --> 01:06:07,859
What's the alternative?

1086
01:06:12,114 --> 01:06:14,491
- We drop out.
- No, you can't do that.

1087
01:06:14,491 --> 01:06:16,827
It's not worth permanent injury.

1088
01:06:19,287 --> 01:06:20,872
What about Alex?

1089
01:06:22,290 --> 01:06:24,960
- What?
- He's been trying to partner with you.

1090
01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:26,378
Just call him, accept.

1091
01:06:26,378 --> 01:06:30,382
- You've worked too hard, Christine.
- I won't compete with Alex.

1092
01:06:30,382 --> 01:06:32,676
I promised myself that long ago.

1093
01:06:34,428 --> 01:06:38,390
Okay. Then we will find
another way to save the store,

1094
01:06:38,390 --> 01:06:41,226
I will help, and we will do it together.

1095
01:06:41,226 --> 01:06:42,894
Yeah.

1096
01:07:19,056 --> 01:07:21,975
- How's your grilled cheese?
- It's great.

1097
01:07:23,685 --> 01:07:24,895
Hmm.

1098
01:07:26,188 --> 01:07:30,525
- So, I have a question for you.
- What is it?

1099
01:07:31,735 --> 01:07:34,613
So, it's just been you and me
for a while now,

1100
01:07:34,613 --> 01:07:39,993
but I was wondering
how you'd feel if it was maybe...

1101
01:07:40,786 --> 01:07:43,163
someone new soon.

1102
01:07:43,163 --> 01:07:45,749
- Someone new?
- Yeah.

1103
01:07:46,541 --> 01:07:50,837
You know I love your mom very much,
and I would never try to replace her.

1104
01:07:50,837 --> 01:07:52,631
I know.

1105
01:07:54,633 --> 01:07:57,135
Christine's really nice, don't you think?

1106
01:07:57,886 --> 01:08:00,013
Yeah, I do.

1107
01:08:02,099 --> 01:08:03,934
That was subtle.

1108
01:08:03,934 --> 01:08:05,727
I'm ten.

1109
01:08:11,066 --> 01:08:13,860
I will. Yes, I will. Okay, thanks.

1110
01:08:15,946 --> 01:08:18,949
- Everything alright?
- Yeah. That was the property manager

1111
01:08:18,949 --> 01:08:22,744
for the apartment in Seattle
reminding me to send information.

1112
01:08:22,744 --> 01:08:24,871
I've been a little preoccupied.

1113
01:08:24,871 --> 01:08:27,624
Anything you want to talk about?

1114
01:08:27,624 --> 01:08:28,542
Well, I--

1115
01:08:29,167 --> 01:08:31,795
I really wanted to win this for you.

1116
01:08:31,795 --> 01:08:33,880
I feel like I let you down.

1117
01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:36,758
You used to get very stressed
about winning,

1118
01:08:36,758 --> 01:08:38,969
but you never had to win this.

1119
01:08:38,969 --> 01:08:41,388
Your father and I will be okay.

1120
01:08:41,388 --> 01:08:42,764
Will you, though?

1121
01:08:42,764 --> 01:08:45,183
We have each other, and we have you.

1122
01:08:45,183 --> 01:08:47,102
We'll be just fine.

1123
01:09:04,744 --> 01:09:07,622
My great-grandfather

1124
01:09:07,622 --> 01:09:11,501
opened this store
without a nickel to his name.

1125
01:09:11,501 --> 01:09:15,297
Said every town needed
a place it could rely on.

1126
01:09:15,297 --> 01:09:18,508
- It meant a lot to a lot of people.
- Mm-hmm.

1127
01:09:19,509 --> 01:09:20,927
Including us.

1128
01:09:22,554 --> 01:09:24,931
Including us.

1129
01:09:24,931 --> 01:09:28,185
I still remember the first day
you walked through that door.

1130
01:09:29,728 --> 01:09:32,814
I nearly dropped all the boxes
I was stacking.

1131
01:09:32,814 --> 01:09:33,982
Nearly?

1132
01:09:33,982 --> 01:09:36,735
If I remember correctly,
you did drop them.

1133
01:09:37,944 --> 01:09:40,447
The old man docked my pay 30 cents.

1134
01:09:43,241 --> 01:09:47,412
Worth every penny,
just to get you to notice me.

1135
01:09:47,412 --> 01:09:49,873
- Aw...

1136
01:10:05,180 --> 01:10:07,557
It's me. Can we meet?

1137
01:11:04,072 --> 01:11:05,949
Change of heart?

1138
01:11:05,949 --> 01:11:08,868
I need to win. Can't afford not to.

1139
01:11:08,868 --> 01:11:11,538
- Then let's get to work.
- Yeah.

1140
01:11:12,622 --> 01:11:14,666
There we go. Got it for you.

1141
01:11:14,666 --> 01:11:16,376
- Thanks, Dad.
- You're welcome.

1142
01:11:16,376 --> 01:11:20,630
- Christine called. She's at the studio.

1143
01:11:20,630 --> 01:11:23,425
That's down the block.
Why don't we go say hi?

1144
01:11:23,425 --> 01:11:27,387
Great idea. And why don't we
pick her up mint chocolate chip?

1145
01:11:27,387 --> 01:11:29,806
- You're catching on, Dad.
- Oh.

1146
01:11:56,499 --> 01:11:58,626
Is she in there, Daddy?

1147
01:11:58,626 --> 01:12:00,712
Yeah, but she's a little busy.

1148
01:12:01,463 --> 01:12:04,132
Matthew.
- Where are you going?

1149
01:12:04,132 --> 01:12:06,468
He has the wrong idea about us.

1150
01:12:06,468 --> 01:12:07,969
Does he?

1151
01:12:07,969 --> 01:12:10,722
We're good together, Christine.

1152
01:12:10,722 --> 01:12:14,100
Maybe once. Not anymore.

1153
01:12:17,812 --> 01:12:20,690
Here you go, sweetie.
We'll catch up with her later.

1154
01:12:20,690 --> 01:12:22,484
Matthew! Matthew!

1155
01:12:23,943 --> 01:12:25,695
It's not what it looks like.

1156
01:12:25,695 --> 01:12:28,031
I said I wasn't gonna go to Alex,

1157
01:12:28,031 --> 01:12:31,493
but I couldn't let my parents
lose everything.

1158
01:12:33,620 --> 01:12:35,580
I tried calling you.

1159
01:12:35,580 --> 01:12:39,125
I'm not upset.
I'm glad you found a partner.

1160
01:12:40,126 --> 01:12:43,254
Oh, and we got this for you.

1161
01:12:48,968 --> 01:12:50,720
Good luck.

1162
01:13:08,321 --> 01:13:09,989
Hey. All ready?

1163
01:13:09,989 --> 01:13:13,201
It looks beautiful, sweetheart.
You did a wonderful job.

1164
01:13:13,201 --> 01:13:16,121
- I had help.
- Yeah, we both did.

1165
01:13:16,121 --> 01:13:18,832
You said you're not dancing
with Christine,

1166
01:13:18,832 --> 01:13:21,209
but we'll cheer her on tonight, right?

1167
01:13:21,209 --> 01:13:23,586
I don't think she'd want me there.

1168
01:13:23,586 --> 01:13:26,548
Because you drove away
and left her on the sidewalk?

1169
01:13:26,548 --> 01:13:29,384
- For starters.
- You should talk to her.

1170
01:13:31,136 --> 01:13:34,472
- Do you really like the garden?
- I really do.

1171
01:13:35,557 --> 01:13:37,809
Finally feels like home.

1172
01:13:37,809 --> 01:13:39,644
Good job.

1173
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,400
There you go.
So nice to see you again, okay?

1174
01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:46,985
Take care.

1175
01:13:54,993 --> 01:13:57,203
How you doing?

1176
01:13:57,203 --> 01:13:59,456
I'm okay.

1177
01:14:04,002 --> 01:14:05,753
Matthew will come around.

1178
01:14:09,048 --> 01:14:11,176
I hate to see you this blue.

1179
01:14:11,176 --> 01:14:13,511
You have so much to look forward to.

1180
01:14:13,511 --> 01:14:17,307
Like an exciting new consulting job,
whatever that is.

1181
01:14:19,184 --> 01:14:21,186
Mom, I'm not going to Seattle.

1182
01:14:22,020 --> 01:14:23,938
What?

1183
01:14:23,938 --> 01:14:26,566
You want to know
what that human resources,

1184
01:14:26,566 --> 01:14:29,736
optimization strategy,
consulting job was all about?

1185
01:14:31,571 --> 01:14:34,199
Helping businesses.

1186
01:14:34,199 --> 01:14:36,534
And what better place than right here?

1187
01:14:38,953 --> 01:14:41,956
Sweetie, I'm not sure
there's gonna be much to do.

1188
01:14:41,956 --> 01:14:46,127
Look, whether it's figuring out
a way to save this store,

1189
01:14:46,127 --> 01:14:50,381
or saying goodbye
and starting a new chapter,

1190
01:14:50,381 --> 01:14:53,510
we're gonna do this together, as a family.

1191
01:14:54,552 --> 01:14:55,929
Okay?

1192
01:14:58,139 --> 01:14:59,974
Okay.

1193
01:14:59,974 --> 01:15:02,435
- I love you.
- I love you too.

1194
01:15:08,775 --> 01:15:11,277
Oh, hey. How's the knee?

1195
01:15:11,277 --> 01:15:13,488
Yeah, it's better. Thanks.

1196
01:15:13,488 --> 01:15:15,990
It's too bad it flared up when it did.

1197
01:15:15,990 --> 01:15:18,660
Christine's got a better partner anyway.

1198
01:15:18,660 --> 01:15:20,203
Didn't you hear?

1199
01:15:20,203 --> 01:15:22,539
Christine's not competing anymore.

1200
01:15:22,539 --> 01:15:23,998
What?

1201
01:15:25,208 --> 01:15:27,085
Why?

1202
01:15:27,877 --> 01:15:30,505
Did Alex let her down again?

1203
01:15:30,505 --> 01:15:32,674
It was her choice.

1204
01:15:32,674 --> 01:15:35,218
She can't dance with somebody
she doesn't trust.

1205
01:15:39,055 --> 01:15:41,099
You good, sweetie? I got this.

1206
01:15:41,099 --> 01:15:43,142
Okay. Go have fun. I love you. Bye.

1207
01:15:44,894 --> 01:15:46,646
Come on, Taylor.

1208
01:16:00,118 --> 01:16:03,371
Can I help you find... anything?

1209
01:16:03,371 --> 01:16:06,291
I hope so.

1210
01:16:06,291 --> 01:16:08,501
I need a dance partner.

1211
01:16:10,378 --> 01:16:11,963
What?

1212
01:16:13,089 --> 01:16:15,216
Matthew, I am so sorry about last night.

1213
01:16:15,216 --> 01:16:18,886
No, I am sorry. And don't apologize
for wanting to help your family.

1214
01:16:18,886 --> 01:16:20,722
You're a fighter, Christine.

1215
01:16:22,181 --> 01:16:24,058
But... what about your knee?

1216
01:16:24,058 --> 01:16:27,812
- Rested and ready.
- Are you sure?

1217
01:16:27,812 --> 01:16:31,399
I've never been more sure of anything.

1218
01:16:36,613 --> 01:16:38,865
Come on!
- That'd be Taylor.

1219
01:16:38,865 --> 01:16:40,617
- Grab your coat, let's go.

1220
01:16:40,617 --> 01:16:43,119
Okay. Alright. Bye, Mom!

1221
01:16:43,119 --> 01:16:45,079
- Bye-bye!
- Bye, Jennifer.

1222
01:16:45,079 --> 01:16:47,832
We gotta get a move on,
we're gonna be late!

1223
01:16:47,832 --> 01:16:50,251
- We have a competition to win.
- My dress.

1224
01:16:50,251 --> 01:16:52,462
Your dad gave it to me.

1225
01:16:52,462 --> 01:16:54,422
It's from the garden, for luck.

1226
01:16:56,758 --> 01:17:00,637
- Alright, let's do this.

1227
01:17:00,637 --> 01:17:01,554
You in?

1228
01:17:01,554 --> 01:17:03,264
- Have fun!
- Thank you!

1229
01:17:03,264 --> 01:17:05,183
See you, Jennifer.

1230
01:17:09,270 --> 01:17:13,024
<i>Good evening, ladies and gentlemen,
and welcome to tonight's competition.</i>

1231
01:17:14,192 --> 01:17:17,028
<i>Dancers, take your positions
for the qualifying round.</i>

1232
01:17:20,365 --> 01:17:24,035
<i>Please make sure you spread out
so the judges can see.</i>

1233
01:17:24,035 --> 01:17:28,247
<i>The competition begins now. Good luck.</i>

1234
01:17:51,396 --> 01:17:53,815
<i>The judges have made their selections.</i>

1235
01:17:53,815 --> 01:17:56,150
<i>Here are tonight's semi-finalists.</i>

1236
01:17:57,235 --> 01:17:59,112
Couple number 14.

1237
01:18:00,279 --> 01:18:03,116
<i>Couple number 18.</i>

1238
01:18:03,116 --> 01:18:06,160
<i>Couple number 16.</i>

1239
01:18:07,745 --> 01:18:10,790
<i>Couple number... 30.</i>

1240
01:18:27,849 --> 01:18:30,393
Congratulations, finalists!

1241
01:18:30,393 --> 01:18:34,397
And now, dancers, prepare yourselves.
It's your time to shine.

1242
01:18:36,774 --> 01:18:38,151
Oh!

1243
01:18:41,279 --> 01:18:42,739
Just focus on me.

1244
01:18:42,739 --> 01:18:45,908
What about the final move?
Can your knee handle it?

1245
01:18:45,908 --> 01:18:47,744
Probably not.

1246
01:18:49,412 --> 01:18:51,122
Do you trust me?

1247
01:18:51,122 --> 01:18:53,666
I do.

1248
01:19:52,767 --> 01:19:54,018
Barofski!

1249
01:20:34,517 --> 01:20:36,435
You did it.

1250
01:20:36,435 --> 01:20:37,520
Oh.

1251
01:20:39,814 --> 01:20:41,440
Bravo!

1252
01:20:43,276 --> 01:20:48,114
Ladies and gentlemen,
our second-place winner is...

1253
01:20:48,114 --> 01:20:53,119
Christine Sims
and newcomer Matthew Russell.

1254
01:20:53,119 --> 01:20:54,662
Congratulations.

1255
01:20:54,662 --> 01:20:57,164
- Thank you.
- Well deserved.

1256
01:20:57,164 --> 01:20:59,000
Thank you.

1257
01:21:13,306 --> 01:21:15,099
There you go.

1258
01:21:21,814 --> 01:21:24,275
Oh, hey, Alex. Congratulations.

1259
01:21:24,275 --> 01:21:25,568
Thank you.

1260
01:21:27,737 --> 01:21:30,323
I don't remember a kiss
in the choreography.

1261
01:21:31,741 --> 01:21:34,911
Congratulations on a well-deserved win.

1262
01:21:34,911 --> 01:21:37,038
And good luck with those renovations.

1263
01:21:37,038 --> 01:21:40,791
Thank you. Will I be seeing you
around the dance circuit?

1264
01:21:42,335 --> 01:21:45,004
It was fun to step into my old life
for a minute,

1265
01:21:45,004 --> 01:21:48,466
but I think my future is somewhere else.

1266
01:21:51,177 --> 01:21:52,845
Best of luck.

1267
01:21:57,099 --> 01:21:58,601
- How you feeling?
- Ooh!

1268
01:21:59,727 --> 01:22:01,103
I'm sorry, Christine.

1269
01:22:01,103 --> 01:22:04,190
- For what?
- We didn't win.

1270
01:22:06,275 --> 01:22:07,985
Of course we won.

1271
01:22:10,029 --> 01:22:12,490
- Yeah.

1272
01:22:12,490 --> 01:22:13,658
Ooh!

1273
01:22:15,868 --> 01:22:17,787
We didn't get the full prize money,

1274
01:22:17,787 --> 01:22:20,706
but our second-place win
is enough for seeds and supplies

1275
01:22:20,706 --> 01:22:23,834
to develop the unused plot of land,
the back 40.

1276
01:22:23,834 --> 01:22:28,005
You also qualify for state
and local tax credits on those purchases.

1277
01:22:28,005 --> 01:22:29,882
And once the crops start to come in,

1278
01:22:29,882 --> 01:22:33,135
a farm loan will help bridge the gap
until profits increase.

1279
01:22:33,135 --> 01:22:34,261
Oh!

1280
01:22:34,261 --> 01:22:37,473
Oh, this is incredibly wonderful.

1281
01:22:37,473 --> 01:22:41,310
But we don't have enough hands
to work that field.

1282
01:22:41,310 --> 01:22:43,896
Actually... you just might.

1283
01:22:59,328 --> 01:23:02,748
You were always there for them.
They'd like to return the favor.

1284
01:23:04,625 --> 01:23:06,293
Sweetheart.

1285
01:23:08,295 --> 01:23:11,632
- Matthew. Thank you.
- My pleasure.

1286
01:23:11,632 --> 01:23:13,009
Oh, honey.

1287
01:23:13,009 --> 01:23:15,970
Love you.
- I love you too.

1288
01:23:16,929 --> 01:23:18,681
Let me say hello.

1289
01:23:18,681 --> 01:23:23,019
Hello! Oh, you guys.
I'm so glad to see you.

1290
01:23:25,229 --> 01:23:28,983
- Well, this all feels amazing.
- Yeah, it does.

1291
01:23:30,901 --> 01:23:32,653
Nice work, partner.

1292
01:23:32,653 --> 01:23:35,573
-"Partner." I like the sound of that.
- Me too.

1293
01:23:35,573 --> 01:23:37,658
Oh!

1294
01:23:50,337 --> 01:23:52,506
You know,
next year's regionals

1295
01:23:52,506 --> 01:23:54,467
are only 361 days away.
