Good Witch (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 4 - All in the Family - full transcript

I saw the light.
Thought you might need this.

I take it business is good?
- This is my first break today.

Okay, you need to hire
a receptionist

or a nurse or a barista.

Thank you for the coffee.

It's very thoughtful.

I had a really good time
at the dance the other night,

thanks to you.

It was not a dull
evening, that's for sure.

Would you like to have another
not-so-dull evening?

This is where
you'd say something.



Dinner.

Okay? Friday night?

I'd love to.

Great.

Amber begs me to be partners
with her on our history project.

We're supposed
to work on it tonight

and she just bailed on me.

Bribe her with some dessert.

Mom, girls like
Amber don't eat.

That's one of the reasons
they're so mean.

They're really hungry.

Being mean is just
a defense mechanism.

Pushing someone away
before they have a chance

to push you away,



when what she really
wants to do is be your friend.

Mom, you just don't get it.

It's been a long time
since you were in high school.

True, true.

But with age comes wisdom.

For you.

A compass?

That was Dad's.
- From when he was a Scout.

I just happened to find it in
some boxes at the store today.

Or maybe it found me.

I have a feeling it's for you.

Daddy was, like,
eight when he had this,

and I'm practically 16.

And I'm a girl.

You know,
your father always said

he never felt lost
when he had this compass.

But I'm not lost.

North Middleton.

Have a good evening, ma'am.

Cassie.
What's with the suitcase?

I'm sorry. I thought you
were somebody else for a minute.

No, I'm just me.

Abigail.

Abigail?

Were you expecting her?
Because she didn't say...

She's not a guest, Sam.

I'm family.

Hi, cousin.

I can certainly see
the family resemblance.

We have a lot in common.
- Most of the time.

Lori!
- Abigail! Hi.

You've grown!

Yeah. That happens.

And Grace!

Hi. Abigail, I've heard
so much about you.

I'm glad to finally meet you,

I don't really remember you
from before.

Well, you were very young

the last time that I visited.

Dad, are you in here?

Some Paul guy keeps calling,
something about his sick kid.

He tried your cell, but...

It goes straight to voice-mail.

I'm not your receptionist.

Well, I should go
give Paul a call.

Nice to meet you.

I'll see you around, Sam.

I haven't heard
from you in a while.

I was getting worried.

I tried to call last month.

My cell was stolen.

I have a new number.
I'll give it to you.

I've just been so busy with work.

The ad agency in New York?

Yeah.

Did I tell you that?
- You didn't need to.

Right.

You had a feeling.

I did and I do, all the time.

Well, I had so much vacation
time they insisted I use some.

Did they?
- They did.

I thought it would be a great
excuse to come see you.

All of you.

I really miss
having my family around.

Family is always
there for you.

Unconditionally.

Grey House is happy
you're back.

So am I.

Do you wanna talk about it?

I saw the way
you looked at Abigail.

We have a history.

I can tell.

Sister to sister,

it's really easy to get

sucked in by
all her Abigail-ness.

And then it's easy
to get hurt,

so proceed with caution.

Yeah.

Mom, everybody is going.

How is everyone in your class
going to see an R-rated movie?

Lauren's older sister is
going to take a bunch of us.

Who's Lauren?
- We have biology together.

AP. She's a junior
and she's really cool.

And she invited me.
I mean, me.

That is a big deal.

And all the older kids
are going.

But you're not an older kid.

Okay, what is going on?

I need caffeine
for all this drama.

I want to see the new
Chris Hemsworth movie, but...

Come on, think of
what you were doing

when you were Grace's age.

She's practically 18.
- She's 15.

I'm sorry,
but the answer is no.

Mom...
- Don't be in such a hurry to grow up.

But I'm not.

And you need to realize that
whether you like it or not,

I am growing up.

Okay, and I may not be 18,

but I'm not a baby.

I got this.

Good.

I was worried for a minute,
but Abigail's got this.

Hi.

You look upset.

No, I'm not upset.
I'm confused and...

Well, yeah a little upset.

For the record, you kissed me.

You know, one moment
doesn't change everything.

One really great moment.

And change is part of
the natural order of things.

Why am I telling you this? You know
more about this stuff than I do.

It's life.

You don't change, you die.

Okay, you're overreacting.
- And you are underreacting.

What?

It's not like
I am asking you to marry me.

I'm just asking you
to acknowledge the fact

that there may be something
really wonderful here

if both of us are brave enough
to admit it.

I just don't wanna
lose the one thing

that got me through
the toughest time of my life.

You.

You are never gonna lose me.

Yeah. You can't make
a guarantee like that.

Sure I can.

It's a gamble.

Okay, look...

Let's just go back
to the way we were.

Forget about the kiss.

Let me take you out
for a meal.

Just a meal between friends.

Maybe we have to go back
to go forward.

You think?
- I'm willing to bet on it.

Yeah, fine.

Yeah, I'll see you then.

Hi. Remember me?

Yes, of course.

I wanted to come by and properly
thank you for last night.

It's my pleasure.

Can I buy you a cup of coffee?

I'm sorry, but I've got a
patient in the back and...

And I'll have to
let that go to voice-mail.

May I?

Doctor's office.

Yes, can you come
in this afternoon?

Dr. Radford had a cancelation.

How does 3:00 sound?

Great. We'll see you then.

How did you know...

You really are like Cassie,
aren't you?

In some ways.

Why don't you let me help?

I'll answer the phone,
you need a receptionist.

Don't you work in New York?

I'm sensing a change
of occupations in my future.

Doctor's office.

Yes, what time would be
convenient for you?

Perfect, we'll see you then.

Looking for something?

Commitment.

Something that'll push
Sam over that last hurdle.

He isn't quite over
his divorce.

There's still a lot of pain from
his ex-wife he hasn't dealt with.

Well, I think he really
wants to be with me.

He just...
He isn't quite there yet.

So, help me
to help him get there.

Okay?

Orange blossom,
patchouli and honey.

It was rumored
to be the only scent

that Cleopatra wore.

It's simple, classy...

Sexy.

It's like me in a bottle.

Me and Cleo.

Now, it's pretty potent,
so, use with discretion.

Well, I can't make
any promises.

So...
- So, it's cold.

Yeah.

You got the listing.
- Yeah, yeah.

Keating's grandson in Chicago was looking
at three realtors, I got the listing.

Congratulations.
- Thanks.

It was important
to me that you be here.

This won't be easy.

A house like this
needs special care,

but I know that
you'll make sure

it ends up in the right hands.

Keating's grandson just wants
as much money as he can get.

But it's not just about money.

To him it is.
- But not you.

You're freezing.
- I forgot my gloves.

Here.

I'm kind of glad you did.

Don't worry, he'll show.

You think?
- Honey, look in the mirror.

Thank you.

What is that lovely fragrance
you're wearing?

You like it?
- I do.

May I?

Sure. We girls have
to stick together, right?

We do.

I love patchouli.

Excuse me.

Sam.

Hi!

Sam!

Sam?

I thought you were going
to stand me up.

You were right.

Was I?

Stephanie,
this is Cassie's cousin.

Abigail.

She's helping me out
at the office.

I'll bet she is.

I'll give you a minute
to decide.

Your order.

I got us a table.
- Great.

Is that you?

Yes. You like it?

Yeah, and normally
I'm allergic to perfume.

Sorry I'm late.

House call.

So, there are still
doctors that make house calls?

I never thought
I'd be one of them, but yes.

It's very dedicated of you.
- Well...

You seem dressed up.

You sound so surprised.

No, it's just that when you
asked me to come out and talk,

you seemed...

When I'm depressed,
I like to dress up.

So you're depressed?

I'm all kinds of things
at the moment.

That's why I needed
to talk to someone.

What about Cassie?

We don't see eye to eye
on certain things,

but Cassie is one of the best
listeners I've ever met.

That's the problem.

Cassie's kind of
perfect at everything.

It can be
intimidating sometimes.

I knew you'd understand.

This developer
was looking at Blairsville.

The mayor was more than happy
to share that news with me.

He wants to make
an offer, here.

The Keating House?
- Yeah.

He wants to tear it down

and he's gonna put up
six very high-end townhouses.

Well, that means jobs.
- Yeah.

And a new tax base.

And development, especially
high-end development shows

a town on the rise.

Plus, I get to
stick it to Blairsville.

Looks like it's a win-win
situation all around.

But...

But, the buyer
doesn't want any roadblocks.

And the land
on the Keating House

is currently zoned
single-family residential.

But if it weren't?

I think we might have
something to celebrate.

It's a very big deal, Martha.

I think, as mayor,

it's time for me
to re-evaluate

some of the zoning areas
around town.

Not everyone in town
might feel the way you feel.

Pfft!

I'm leading Middleton
to a new revenue source

and a bigger, brighter future.

Who won't like that?

There.

So I will admit to being
completely in the dark,

but is something wrong
with our kids?

Seems to be more than
the normal amount

of animosity between them.

I never know what's happening with
Nick until the principal calls.

You okay?
- Yeah. Growing pains.

Grace?

Yeah, for both of us, I think.

Well, if it's any consolation, I
don't think Grace's growing pains

mean that you'll be hearing from
the principal any time soon.

Teenagers.

Yeah. I knew this day was coming,
but now that it's here...

You know, when I got out
of Med School,

I had to take my boards,

an eight-hour test
with over 300 questions,

and the score on this test

determines which residency
program you're matched with.

I never thought anything
could be that difficult.

And then Nick turned 13.

Grace is a good kid.

Yeah. So is Nick.

Well, he has his moments.

God willing, I can string
enough of them together

to get him out of high school
and into a college.

Thanks.

Anytime.

Abigail is great,
by the way.

Yeah. She's working for you
at your office.

She said it was your idea.

Abigail can be a handful.

I can handle her.

Just make sure
she's not handling you.

Will that be all, sir?

"Sir?" Is this about
last night?

You mean your date?
- It wasn't a date.

She needed
somebody to talk to.

Please. That is the
oldest trick in the book.

So I've heard.

Are we still on for tonight?

Yeah.

That new French place?

Sure. I could pick you up.

I have to cover here
till 7:00, so...

I'll meet you there.

Grace! Are you in there?

Don't you like it?

Where did you get it?

Guilty.

Well, you can't wear
it to school.

This is what the kids
are wearing today.

Yeah.
- Yeah, not my kid. Grace!

You're being totally unfair.

You can't keep me
a little girl forever.

It's just an outfit.

Her job is to push the limits

and my job is to enforce them.

But if you become
just an enforcer,

she's just gonna keep
pulling away.

My advice,
loosen your grip a little bit.

I can't.
- No, you just don't want to.

No, I can't.

Because I'm the only one left
with a grip on her.

I'm sorry.

I just know how upset Grace
has been since Jake died.

You do?

We all have our gifts.

We do.

I feel very connected to Grace
in a way that maybe you...

Abigail, I know you mean well...
- I do.

I'm so glad you can see
I'm just trying to help.

You're the best.

Hi, all.

Hi!

I brought muffins.

Cranberry, my favorite!

I'm allergic to cranberries.

Thanks. Excuse me.

I brought the muffins for Sam.

It's clear
that you're here for Sam.

Aren't you the waitress?

And I see you're
the new receptionist.

Office manager.

I own the Bistro.
- Lucky you're single, then.

Running a small business by yourself
must take up all your time.

Not all of it.

So, you'll be leaving soon,
going back to New York?

My plans might change.

Well, what on earth
could Middleton have

to lure you away
from the big city?

Family, of course.

Of course.

So, we still on for tonight?

We have a date.

Looking forward to it.

It was a pleasure
talking to you.

You, too.

So, I heard you're selling
Keating house to a developer.

Martha.

In her defense, I think she just wanted
to get me on board with the sale,

since she knew
it would be unpopular

with the town council.

So, do you really think that
tearing down Keating house

is the best option
for our town?

I don't have the choice.
- Sure you do.

No, I don't.
Not when you're in sales.

That's not true.

You're in retail,
I am in real estate.

If you don't like something,
you just don't carry it.

I don't have that luxury.

But you still have a choice.

Look, this is pretty simple.

Someone makes an offer,
I have to accept that offer

for my client if that's
what my client wants.

The choice is theirs,
it's not mine.

This is not about
what I want, Cassie.

This is not personal, Cassie.

This is business.

But in Middleton,
all business is personal.

Anthony!

Hi.

Does this mean
you're talking to me again?

Yeah.

You know I'm sorry
about the dance and Nick.

Why did you do that?

I don't know, I mean...

He's always bugging me,
so I thought I'd bug him.

Basically, I was a jerk,

and if there's anything
I can do to make it up to you,

name it.

Anything?

Well, I'm not prepared
to commit murder,

but other than that, name it.

Amber is no help.

You need help with your history project?
- Please.

Done.
- You're the best.

I'm glad you're back
to thinking so.

Hi.

Hi.

Working?

Yeah.

On an article
about a local dairy farmer

who is converting
part of his field

into wind turbines.

You left a big-city newspaper
to write articles about cows.

Well, my career is important,
but so is my family.

I wanted more of a balance.

Interesting.

What about you?

Well, I was
in advertising, but...

You were in advertising?

I thought you were just
on a break from your job.

I am, but I'm thinking about
making it more permanent,

especially now
that Sam needs me.

For work.

Why don't we hang out
like we used to?

I don't think it's me
you came to hang out with.

I'm too old to blindly
follow you anymore.

I get it.

You're afraid
I'm gonna take your place

as big sister with Grace.

I can't ask Grace not to like me.

What exactly did I do to you?

You have a long history

of making promises
and not delivering.

And the list
is too long to go into,

but I guess I don't want Grace to
have a list like mine someday.

I miss you, Dad.

What's wrong?

I really wanted to go
to the movie.

I'm kind of bummed.

We still can.

I'll take you.

Mom said no.

I can't.

What if we could do something
even better than the movie?

Sam.

I just wanted to ask
you a question.

Sure.
- Abigail.

She's completely
organized my office.

Okay.

Maybe you could talk to her
about letting me pay her.

She doesn't seem to
want anything from me,

but I don't feel
right about that.

You know, I think Abigail
can take care of herself.

Well, she puts on this
incredibly confident front,

but underneath, I think
she's a little insecure.

Abigail is brilliant

at figuring out
what people want,

but not necessarily
what they need.

She thinks
you don't approve of her.

No, she wants you to think
I don't approve of her,

two very different things.

Look, I know
what it's like to feel

you don't measure up to
your family's expectations.

Really?

Well, my father was tough.

If I got an A,
it was expected.

It was not congratulated.

And if I got anything less
than an A, well,

he'd let me know
it was unacceptable.

Well, if Abigail has a problem
with me, she should come to me.

You have to know that
you're a little intimidating.

I think maybe she was
just more comfortable

talking to somebody...

not so perfect.

I'm not perfect.
- To her you are.

She told you that?

She didn't mean
anything by it.

Abigail always
means something.

Okay.

I'll see you later.
- Okay.

Hi!
- Hi.

Hi.

What's up?

Just girl talk.

Yeah.

I should get back to Sam.
I'll see you later.

Grace...

Don't worry, it's all good.

Where are you off to?

Anthony's meeting me
at the Bistro

to help me work on that
project that's due next week.

Amber's no help.

I'm sorry about the movie.

I get it.

I don't like it, but I get it.

Aren't you going
to dinner with Ryan?

Yeah.

You know,
maybe when I get back,

we could, stay up late
and watch a movie.

It won't be
the Hemsworth movie,

but I'm sure we can
find something good.

That's sweet.

But I'll probably just go
straight to bed when I get home.

I'm beat.
- Okay.

I could give you a ride.

I wouldn't want you
to get lost.

To the Bistro?

I think I'll be okay.

Everything looks good so far, but I'll
let you know when the tests are back.

Are you all right?
- I don't know.

Here, let me take a look.

No, go. Please.

I don't want to make
you late for your date.

My X-ray is down, but to be safe
I need to get a better look.

You did say you fractured
that ankle once before,

so this joint
is at least susceptible.

If you insist.
- I do.

The closest X-ray
is a town over.

Let me make a phone call and tell
Stephanie I'll be a little late.

No, I feel awful.

Go to your date, I'll make
my own way to the hospital.

Stephanie will understand.
- She's so sweet.

Here.

Here.

That better?

Much.

What are you doing?

Going out.

We're going out?

Well not "we."

I'm meeting someone.

Okay.

Another glass of wine, ma'am?

Why don't you bring the bottle?
- Okay.

Thanks.

He's late?

He called.

Medical emergency.

I guess that can't be helped.

Thanks for meeting me.
- What's up?

I've just come from a meeting
with the town's legal counsel.

Your husband.
- Well, yes.

And we can't officially
announce it yet,

but the zoning request
will go through next week.

Let our developer friend know

that the deal
on the Keating House is a go.

Congratulations!
- Thank you.

To all of us.

But especially to me.

Hi!

So where did Grace go?

She's studying over at
the Bistro with Anthony.

She really knows how to
have fun on a Friday night.

Yeah. She's still upset
about that movie.

Do you want me
to pick her up?

Would you?

Maybe get her
around 10:00?

That should give them
plenty of time.

Yeah. No problem.
- Okay.

And maybe I could treat them
to pie and ice cream

and after,
Grace and I could talk,

big sister to little sister.

My treat.
- I'll tell her.

Yeah.

Stephanie.

Hi.

How was your dinner?

I highly recommend the wine.

And the breadsticks.

Where's... Where's Sam?

With Abigail, again.

Yikes.

Abigail?

Sorry.

So...
- Anyway...

You.
- No, no, you.

Just go ahead.

Why is this so hard?
- I don't know.

But it is, right?
- But it shouldn't be.

No.
- No.

So I wanted to tell you

that Martha is getting the
Keating House property re-zoned,

so it looks like
the deal is going through.

And I wish that
you were happy for me.

If I thought it would
make you happy...

You're trying to be
someone you're not

and that never works.

I hate that you don't approve,

and I really hate
that I need your approval.

No, it's not my approval.

Yeah, it is.

You don't approve
of what you're doing

and you want someone
to tell you it's okay

when you know it's not.
- You're wrong.

You want me to be,
but that's not the same thing.

Can we just order dessert?

One chocolate torte,
two forks?

Finally, something that we can agree on!

I'm looking for...
- Sam?

Yes.
- Yeah, you're late.

She didn't want
to wait anymore.

She left you a note.

It's, not good.

This project could be
very good for the town.

I thought you didn't want
to talk about it?

I don't.

But you not talking
about it is almost worse

than you talking about it.

Hang on a second,
I just...

I gotta get this. Sorry.

Hello? Hi!

One second.

The late Doctor Sam!

Hello, Ryan.

Did not mean
to interrupt your date.

No. The phone beat you to it.

And it's not a date.
It's dinner.

A note from Stephanie?

How could you tell that?

I can feel the angry
handwriting from here.

You saw her, I take it?
- Briefly.

She was moving pretty quickly.

I did not want to get in her way.
- I called.

Where were you?
- Abigail. She hurt her ankle.

As long as you've got
everything handled.

I do.

So,
Sam's having a rough night.

Do you mind if he joins us
for dessert?

Of course.

Thanks.

Can I use this chair?
- But I don't want to interrupt.

No. We're all friends, right?

Yeah, yeah, we're all friends.

Thanks!

So, Sam, what's new?

Well, we're gonna need
a bigger cake.

Yeah.
- Sure.

Yeah. Thanks.

Hi. Coffee
with cream, please.

Pie and ice cream on me,
compliments of Cassie.

Where's Grace?
- She's...

Anthony?
- Yeah?

Where is she?

Honestly, I don't know.

What do you mean,
you don't know?

It's Grace.

Leave a message and I'll
get right back to you.

Well, thanks for letting me
crash your...

Dinner.

I'd invite you back
to my place,

but I don't want you two
to get the wrong idea.

Good night, Sam.

Good night, Sam.
- See ya.

What are you doing here?

You should go home.
This isn't your crowd.

I'm not going anywhere

and I can take care of myself.

Yeah, you really didn't have
to walk me inside.

Can't be too safe, right?

Well, Sam was certainly an
interesting twist to the evening.

It was nice of you
to let him join us.

He's upset. He really messed
it up with Stephanie.

What about me?

Have I totally
messed it up with you?

You know, I'm just surprised

the deal means as much
to you as it does.

I thought we were pretty much
on the same page with,

well, a lot of things.

I was talking about us.

Should I be hoping
for a good night kiss?

It was dinner, not a date, remember.

Do you kiss everyone you have
dinner with good night?

As a matter of fact, I do.

Well, in that case.

Now that I know your moves,
I'll be ready for next time.

You assume
there is a next time?

It was
just dinner, right?

Night.
- Good night.

Grace?

She's not with Anthony.
I called her cell,

but it went straight
to voice-mail.

I don't know where she is.
