Good Witch (2015–…): Season 2, Episode 10 - A Perfect Match: Part 2 - full transcript

- Hey, Nick.
- Hey, Cassie.

Let me take your coat.

Thank you.

I hope you brought
your appetite.

I did.

- Well, this is nice.
- Oh, yeah!

- Ah, the food
looks great!
- Mmm.

Why don't we do this more often?

You and Nick are
welcome anytime.

- So, uh, Grace.
- Yes.

Did your teacher like
your biology paper?



I got an A.

- Surprise, surprise.
- Aw.

And, Nick, I heard
the good news.

A semester in London?

Well, it's a big trip,
but he's up to it.

Well, if he's going. (CHUCKLES)

- What's wrong with you?
- I didn't mean to.

- But you did.
- It's the truth, is it not?

It's not your place to say!

It was an accident. I'm sorry.

Yeah, accidentally on purpose.

- (SCOFFS)
- Okay, okay, okay.

Wait, everybody to their
neutral corner, all right?

So, what, you don't
want to go to London?



I'm still thinking
about it, all right?

Nick!

- Excuse me.
- Grace...

Well, that went well.

- Hmm.
- So much for a simple dinner.

Sam, this was never
gonna be simple.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(CASSIE SIGHS)

- Grace didn't eat much.
- No, how about Nick?

He ate, but silently.

Hmm.

I still can't believe,

as hard as he pushed
to go to London,

now, he may not even go.

Yeah, he's conflicted.

Maybe this isn't the best time

to introduce
something new to them.

We're friends and neighbors.

They're friends...

Well, there may be
some bumps in the road,

but that doesn't
mean we shouldn't try.

Hmm.

You know, this isn't
just something small.

It's not only one issue.

Grace has grown so fond of you,

and you and I have a friendship

that I wouldn't want
to live without, so...

There are things to lose.

And things to gain.

(SIGHS) You don't
know that for sure.

I know us.

Yeah? And what if
it's bigger than us?

I think we should
just take a breath

and just deal with
the issue at hand.

And what is that?

That these dishes aren't
going to wash themselves.

(CHUCKLES)

Well, I'm glad you volunteered.

(CHUCKLES)

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- Oh! Can you see who that is?

It's John.

He's waiting for an
answer on the Maldives.

And you have one for him?

I'm not gonna go.

(EXHALES) I'm surprised.

I mean, that dig
is an opportunity

that might not
come around again.

Well, I had too many things
pulling me toward home.

And you're happy
with that decision?

Yeah.

Uh, the Maldives
was tempting, but...

Middleton...

Even more so.

Well, I will try to make sure

that your decision
not to go is worthwhile.

Yeah, you better. (CHUCKLING)

(MARTHA SIGHS)

(CHUCKLING)

I need something.

Blue Vervain. It's good
for stress and anxiety.

Well, I wouldn't need the tea

if your cousin
were doing her job.

- Abigail?
- Hmm.

The festival could be ruined.

And now, I can't
find her to talk to her.

She's never where
I think she'll be,

and it's too late to
find someone else.

Ah, I should have
done it myself,

but, you know, I have
so much on my plate.

Oh, you're a born multitasker.

(SIGHS)

Cassie, I have to face the fact

that for the first time
in our town's history,

the Middleton Lights
Festival may go dark!

Oh, there's too much
light inside of you

to ever let that happen.

Aw...

Well, I'm afraid my bright
and shining personality

will not be enough
to save the day.

You definitely
can't do it alone.

You might need
some of this later.

MARTHA: Oh.

Hmm. Thank you.

(SIGHS)

But I don't think tea is
going to save the festival.

(TARA CHUCKLING)

You made breakfast for me.

Well, first day at your new job.

Now, I've been
thinking about it.

It really is the perfect
job for me right now.

I mean, when we have a baby,

I'll need something
with flexible hours

and not a lot of stress.

Well, I support you,
whatever you want to do.

I do wish I had someone
to talk to about things.

- Hey!
- You know what I mean.

I thought the feeling
would go away, but...

I can't stop thinking
about my mother.

I can understand that,

but I don't think your
mother is the answer.

People can change,
if they really want to.

Trust me on this.

Leave the past in the past.

You're probably right.

And if you don't
start eating soon,

you're probably gonna be late.

STEPHANIE: Eight designer cakes.

- What was I thinking?
- Ah, it's for a good cause.

And you can't say no to Cassie.

- Stephanie?
- Uh-huh?

Um, this is, uh...

This is my work station.

Well, it's just better
to clean as you go.

Hmm, it's not better, it's
just what you like to do.

- Knock yourself out.
- Thank you.

(CELL PHONE CHIMES)

Tip to go to a job?

It's just a text
from an old friend.

Oh, that's nice!

Yeah, I haven't heard
from Cammy in a while.

"Cammy"?

We used to date.

Oh!

Ha! She's going to be
in town for the festival.

- (TIMER BUZZES)
- Hmm.

That's me.

John, I owe you an answer.

- Thanks.
- Thank you.

I'm so flattered you asked me,

and I know it would be
an incredible adventure,

but I'm not going on the dig.

(SIGHS)

Cassie, you'd be such an asset.

You need to do this.

To travel and to go from
one adventure to another.

It's how you live
your life. It's...

Well, it's what's
important to you.

But it's not what's
important to you.

Do you remember when
we graduated college?

Yeah.

- Big celebration.
- It was.

Afterwards,

when everyone was with
their families taking pictures,

I looked around the
room and, in that moment,

I knew what I
really wanted in life.

And a degree,

and speaking seven languages,

and traveling all
around the world

wasn't gonna give
me what I wanted.

A family.

I moved here, met Jake,

and in more ways than
one, I knew I was home.

And this makes you truly happy?

It does.

Just like traveling the
world makes you happy.

Your life has really changed
since the last time I saw you.

We're both doing what we love.

I'll see you at the festival?

Come by the Ferris wheel.

I'll make sure you
get priority treatment.

(CHUCKLES)

Wow.

You turned down the
handsome archeologist.

Things with Sam
must be pretty serious.

I think you should worry
less about my personal life

and worry more
about the festival.

Whatever do you mean?

- Martha talked to the vendors.
- Oh?

She's very concerned that
they haven't talked to you.

But they talked to her.

She's considering
canceling the whole festival,

and that would be bad for
everyone, especially you.

Nick, look. I'm sorry, okay?

I didn't mean to tell your dad

that you're having second
thoughts about going to London.

Please, talk to me.

Not everybody wants
to talk about stuff.

But the stuff you don't want
to talk about has to do with me.

- Look, I had a feeling.
- A feeling?

Yes, that you're going to get all
the way over there and be unhappy.

My mom makes it look so easy.

What?

Whenever she tries to
help, things get better.

Whenever I try and
do it, things get worse.

I feel like a complete failure.

- A failure?
- Yes!

No! I'm the failure.

I bragged to everyone about how I
was gonna spend a semester in London,

and if I don't go, it'll
look like I wimped out.

It might not be that bad.

My friends will never
let me live this down.

I don't know, maybe I should go.

Just to save face?

What's the point
of staying in town?

- My dad's got a new job.
- At the hospital.

It'll be just like New York.

Well, no, actually worse.

Now, he's the head
of the whole hospital.

You think you're
going to miss him.

It's been nice lately.

It's just the two of us.

That's why you're not
sure you want to go.

Look...

No offense,

but I wanna work
this one out myself.

I've been thinking, maybe, we need
to take a little break from each other.

Did you e-mail my "I'm not
closing my practice" letter

to all the patients?

Yes.

- Any response?
- A few people.

And?

They canceled
their appointments.

(SIGHS) I guess, an e-mail is
not going to convince people to trust

that I won't leave
them, like the last doctor.

You know, Jill was
our first cancellation.

Yeah?

Maybe she can tell us
what started all of this.

Don't worry, Dr. Radford,

I will get to the
bottom of this.

Good.

(PHONE DIALING)

Mmm, those look good.
Are they for the festival?

For Abigail's store.

She hasn't asked me to cater
the food for the festival this year.

None of the vendors I know
have even heard from her.

And as I told Martha, I don't have
enough time now to organize them all.

It does appear she
has some work to do.

(CHUCKLES)

I miss being a part of it,

but between my two businesses,

I just don't have
room for anything else.

Mmm, you have a lot
more to give than you think.

I'm stretched pretty thin.

Too busy to do the
cakes for the auction?

The children's library
fund is a great cause.

- I won't let you down.
- Okay.

You seem stressed.

Well, it's not all work.

(EXHALES)

A woman Ben used
to date texted him.

You're not worried that he's
interested in anyone else?

They dated for over a year.

I mean, I know people whose
marriages didn't last that long.

Hey, Sam.

Hey, what a nice surprise.

Hi.

I put a little treat
in here for Eve.

Oh, thanks, but I'm not
heading back to the office.

I've got a lot of
meetings in the hospital.

Oh! Well, then, I put an
extra treat in there for you.

(CHUCKLES)

Thank you.

I didn't expect the job
to start until next week,

but they want me in there now.

Sounds like a lot more work.

Well, it's pretty intense,
but I got it handled.

And I like being busy.

Mmm, there's a difference
between busy and overloaded.

You don't have
to worry about me.

I always worry about
people I care about.

My patients think that being Chief of
Staff at Hillcrest means I won't be here.

Hmm, maybe you
need to find a way

to show them that
they can trust you.

That's a tall order.

I think you're up
to the challenge.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Tara?

(RINGING CONTINUES)

Hello?

Uh, no, you have
the right number.

She's just not here right now.

This is her husband.
Is this Donna?

Oh.

Okay, uh...

I will let her know you called.

We track individual
sales of the day here

with the total income here.

Oh, let me take notes.

(DOOR OPENING)

Oh, I forgot my phone.

Oh, I have paper.

Oh, I'm expecting a call.

You can use my phone.

Yeah, but, I don't
know her number.

It's my mom.

Oh, I didn't know
you were in contact.

She wants to talk.

She was supposed to call today,

but, please, don't tell Brandon.

He doesn't know?

Well, he thinks I'll get hurt.

But not knowing what
happened hurts more.

Yeah.

Yeah, when I was
pregnant with Grace...

Oh, there was so many
things I was going through

that I wanted to
share with my mom.

Growing up without a mother

leaves you with a lot of
unanswered questions.

But Brandon doesn't get why I
need to understand why she left,

and only she can tell me that.

People don't always know
the reasons for their actions.

But if I don't talk to
her, I'll never know.

Ah!

Hello, Martha!

It's locked.

But she asked me to
deliver these cookies.

Well, she promised
to meet me here,

so we could finally
talk about everything

that she's not
doing for the festival.

This is the final straw!
I have no choice.

I'm gonna have to
cancel the festival.

Now, I just have to figure out

how to make the
announcement to everybody.

I'll help you get the word out.

It's gonna be fine.
Let's make all the calls.

Aw, those are lovely, George!

A perfect way to showcase
the cakes for the festival.

Well, word is there isn't
going to be a festival.

So why am I making these?

Sometimes, you just
have to keep going,

even in the face of doubt.

- Faith?
- Exactly.

Ah.

- Hey!
- Hey.

- What are you making?
- Cake trays.

I only have to make seven more.

(BOTH CHUCKLING)

- And those are for?
- For the festival.

Hmm.

You know, I hear the
view from that Ferris wheel

is supposed to be breathtaking.

And I would really
like to see that view.

Okay.

Have you talked to Grace yet?

I haven't, she's had
a very full schedule.

I'm gonna talk
with Nick tonight.

It's not just the kids that
complicate things for us.

I know, but they're an
important complication.

We gotta start somewhere.

You are very wise.

Oh, you think so?

So, Doc, you're
here to help out?

Um, I would,

but, um, I've got to
get dinner for Nick

and then I have a Skype meeting

with a cardio specialist
from the west coast.

- Mmm.
- Wow, great.

But good luck.

(LAUGHING) Okay.

- Hey, what are you making?
- Dinner.

(CHUCKLING) Looks good to me.

Hey, I can tell you don't
want to talk about London,

but can you at least
help me understand

what's going on
inside your head?

It's my first trip on my own.

I don't know how I'm
gonna feel, when I get there.

What if I hate it,
or I can't cut it?

If I cancel, it will be
embarrassing enough.

Oh, it shouldn't be
an embarrassment.

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- Ah.

Voice mail.

There's, um, something else

that I've been wanting
to talk to you about.

(PHONE RINGING)

I'll... I'll get it.

(RINGING CONTINUES)

Hello?

Yeah.

He's here.

- The hospital.
- Hmm.

Yeah, it's Dr. Radford.

Yeah.

No, I've got five minutes.

Tonight? Sure.

Okay, we need to tell the
vendors that are booked,

the vendors that are on
hold and everyone in town

that the festival is canceled!

I can make the calls. I know
most of them from the past festivals.

I think I need some more
of Cassie's calming tea.

STEPHANIE: Don't worry, Martha.

The town will understand.
It was out of your hands.

(GASPS) Yes!

We need more hands.

Cassie said I can't do it alone!

It was always too big for one
set of hands, but what about two?

If you're going to
call all the vendors,

why not call to confirm their
services instead of cancel?

What do you think of Don
Benjamin for new head of cardiology?

He's a great surgeon,

but he's too hard on the nurses,

and everybody else.

I don't think he's a
great fit for the hospital.

Hmm.

Jim Hart's in town from
Chicago visiting family.

- Hmm.
- He's got a good reputation.

I think I can get him
on the phone tonight.

Ah, I hadn't planned
to be here this late.

Oh, your assistant
can order in food.

That way we can do the call,

then go over the
residents' evals.

I can do that in the morning.

After grand rounds?

Ugh, I don't think I'll
have time for rounds.

I have to go by my
office in Middleton,

and I want to have
breakfast with my son.

I know it'd be good for the
residents to see you in action.

- What do you think?
- Hmm, they're very pretty.

- But are they me?
- Well, they could be.

You think they would go
with that velvet dress I have?

The green one?

Some people would think you might
not want to draw attention to yourself.

The festival is being planned just
as it should have been all along.

- Hi, Sam!
- Hey.

I'm looking forward to seeing
both of you together at the festival.

(CHUCKLES)

She sure is calm,

for somebody whose leadership
skills are being called into question.

Confidence is one of Abigail's
strongest personality traits.

I was thinking,

with the kids the way they are,

and sensing you might
be feeling a little bit rushed,

we don't have to "go together"

to be together at the festival.

Yeah, we can just meet there.

- Well, we can meet up at...
- Face painting.

(LAUGHING) Uh, no.

Aw, you'd look so good
as a lion. (GROWLS)

(LAUGHING) Nothing says
"Chief of Staff" like some whiskers.

Nah, I better pass.

Okay, um... Cotton candy.

Okay, but to be clear,
I get my own bag.

It's nice to share.

I only get fair food, like,
once or twice a year.

- I'm not sharing. Not even with you.
- Mmm.

Oh! Here's an idea.

Ah! Ferris wheel.

- 8:00?
- Don't be late.

For you? I'll be early.

Oh, come on.

We might be down,
but we're not out.

I talked to Jill.

Apparently...

I'm the one who said the
office was going to close.

That's why everyone thought
when you took the hospital job,

you were closing here.

- It was me.
- Back up.

I made a little joke.

When Jill called, I said,
"Let's get you an appointment

"while we're still in business."

Why?

I wasn't sure if you were gonna
take the hospital job or not,

and that made me nervous,
and when I get nervous, I, um...

Make bad jokes?

I should have just asked
you what was going on.

Yes, you should have.

- But why didn't you tell me?
- I'm superstitious.

Well, I don't like to talk about
a job until I sign the contract.

Mmm-hmm. I wish
I had known that.

I do, too.

- What's that?
- From Cassie.

She must be helping Martha
organize the kids' craft area.

It's a big draw at the festival.

"I trust you will put
these to good use

"with all the kids
and their parents."

Lots of people, huh?

Yeah.

Everyone stops by to see
what the kids are making.

It's different every year.

Thank you for coming.

- TARA: Hi!
- Hey!

- I brought both of you lunch.
- Oh, that's thoughtful of you.

- Join us?
- I can't.

I gotta get back to work.

Oh, um, I meant to ask you,

did you answer my
phone yesterday?

Uh, no.

TARA: Huh.

I had a recent call from an
unknown caller, but no message.

I don't know.

Oh, um, there's only
one sandwich in here.

What? I ordered two.

Uh, I'll go back to the
Bistro and get the other one.

No, let me. I want to go
stretch my legs anyway.

BRANDON: Okay.

Hmm.

You're gonna tell her?

If Cassie needs another eight cakes
next year, she has to tell us sooner.

Who knows what
will happen next year?

Well, I imagine there'll
be another festival,

seeing as it's an annual thing.

A lot can happen in a year.

Yeah, but some
things are constant,

like annual things.

You never know how long
something's gonna last.

BEN: Okay.

Oh, no!

(GASPS)

This bottom layer has
completely collapsed on itself.

By the time I get
this to the festival,

this three-layer cake is
gonna be a two-layer cake,

and it's gonna be a huge mess!

- They'll have seven cakes.
- Cassie needed eight!

- She'll understand.
- Ben, it's for charity!

- I'll fix it.
- No, I can figure it out.

- Okay, I'll help you.
- No, you don't have to.

What's going on with you?

It's Cammy, isn't it?

(SIGHS)

Cammy and I could
have dated for five years,

we would never
have been serious.

I just spent the last three days

locked up in a catering
kitchen with you.

If that's not serious,
then I don't know what is.

You get the other seven
cakes to the festival,

and I'll meet you
there with the eighth.

Okay?

Okay.

- Hey!
- Hi.

How are things?

Oh...

Nick is pretty broken
up about London.

He just needs to find
the right adventure.

I think you're right.

I might know of something.

You're always
looking out for Nick.

And me.

I care about you two.

Well, I've got to
go to the office,

swing back by here
and pick up Nick,

and I'll meet you
at the festival.

- 8:00?
- Count on it.

Sam?

Be careful tonight.

- Biology?
- No, physics.

Ooh.

Well, I thought you
could use a pick-me-up.

Ugh, please. My
brain is literally fried.

Oh, I should have made
that an iced tea. (CHUCKLES)

- Oh, Mom.
- Mmm.

I really made a mess
of things with Nick.

Mmm, I don't believe that.

I tried to help.

I thought that if I could get him to
understand how hard it would be

to be so far away from
home, that he'd stay.

Well, sometimes, an
opportunity for something great

comes from something small.

You just have to
keep your eyes open.

What's wrong, Mom?

I want to talk
about your father.

(SIGHS) You know I
loved him very much.

With all your heart.

When he died, a part of
my heart died with him.

He loved you so much, Mom.

Yeah, it was once in a lifetime.

Which is why I was so surprised

when I started to feel the
way I felt about your father

with someone else.

I, um...

I saw you and Sam.

Oh.

Look, as much as I like Sam,

I've just never really
seen you kiss anyone...

But your father.

Give me time.

Of course.

I want you to be happy.

I love you. Come here.

Um, I almost forgot.

I'll be busy with
the cake auction,

but it's important
that John gets this.

I could give it to him.

- That would be perfect.
- Done.

So, are you, um,
ready to go to festival?

(SIGHS)

What's wrong?

I have just officially
told my teacher

I'm not going to London.

I just wish I didn't
feel like a total coward

for backing out.

You just made a
very tough decision.

That's not cowardice.

- That's bravery.
- Thanks, Dad.

(SIGHS) Look, there's...

Something else I've been
wanting to talk to you about.

(SIGHS) It's Cassie.

I mean, you know that we've
become really good friends

since we moved here.

But now,

we're both interested
in something more.

(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- Ah.

(SIGHS)

Dr. Radford. (SIGHS)

GRACE: Hey. NICK: Hey.

- I want to apologize.
- You already did.

I know, but...

Nick, I was trying to help,

but maybe, I was pushing
my feelings on you.

And by the way, you were right.

I am much happier
staying closer to home.

You were trying to help.

It's over anyway. I just
e-mailed my teacher.

Wait...

- You're really not going?
- Not going.

SAM: Look, uh...

I can't go to the
festival right now.

Why don't you guys just go on
without me, and I'll meet you there.

- Yeah, sure.
- Okay.

BRANDON: Wow! It's
really coming together.

Yeah. Hey, save me a hot dog!

(CHUCKLES)

Thanks again for
volunteering, boys.

And, uh, maybe save
some for everyone else.

BRANDON: Oh, busted.

- (CHUCKLES)
- Oh, don't mind if I do.

MARTHA: Oh! No, no, no, no, no!

Yoo-hoo! You
there, up in the tree!

The lights are
too close together,

they're all bunched up,
can you separate them?

- The tables look lovely.
- Thanks, Tara.

- Hello, Martha.
- Hmm.

Hello, I...

(GASPS)

How did this...

This is not how I left it.

Well, it just needed
a little more sparkle.

(CHUCKLES)

And a lot of hands.

Hands...

NICK: My dad told
me about your mom.

- I think they're
gonna start dating.
- Yeah, I think so.

Oh, gosh, I've never
imagined anyone with my mom,

besides my dad.

- Yeah, it's, um, weird.
- (LAUGHS)

GRACE: Hey, you
know, I almost forgot,

I have to drop this
off for my mom.

Her friend John is
working the Ferris wheel.

He's an archeologist.

- Whoa!
- Yeah.

He's actually heading to
the Maldives in a few months

on an archeological dig.

That's really cool.

- Hey, John.
- Hey, there.

This is my friend Nick.

- Nice to meet you, Nick.
- Nice to meet you.

I was telling him about your
upcoming trip to the Maldives.

Oh, yeah. Pretty exciting.

Uh, by the way,
this is from my mom.

(SIGHS) Your mom
found this in India.

That's Sanskrit.

We're studying about the
Maldives in our World Culture class.

Most kids your age
can't find it on a map.

It must be so cool
to be an archeologist.

I love it, yeah.

I mean, there is a lot
of grunt work involved.

I'm bringing a bunch of
students with me on this dig,

even a few from a Chicago
high school for a couple of weeks.

Just a two-week shift.

Just to help carry equipment
and assist the diggers.

Just two weeks?

Would it be too late
to add another student?

Oh, there's always room
for another set of hands.

- So, what does the note say?
- "For luck."

Thank you.

CASSIE: Amazing.

Thank you for asking
me to bake these cakes.

I think it was just what
was needed this year.

Well, as it turns out, it's
just what I needed too.

Hey.

So, it looks like my festival
is coming together flawlessly.

CASSIE: No, not
flawlessly. ABIGAIL: Well...

CASSIE: A lot of effort
went into making this happen.

- (YAWNING) I know.
- (CHUCKLES)

All these years, Bonnie was
able to make Martha think

that Bonnie was
doing all the work,

when really Martha
was calling the shots.

You helped Martha?

This year, with Bonnie gone,

Martha wanted to
take the festival back,

but she didn't think
she could do it.

So, I created a crisis.

When there's a crisis, you
don't second guess yourself.

You just do what has to be done.

From this point on, the festival
is back in the right hands.

- Martha's.
- Mmm-hmm.

But I did it all for Middleton.

Uh-huh.

If you'll excuse me, I
have an interview to do.

He's from a big Chicago paper.

Loves doing stories on small
business owners in small towns.

I'm thinking about
expanding my business,

adding an online component,
reach a bigger audience.

You can't buy
publicity like this.

No, you can't.

You're looking for Sam?

Yes, he's meeting me at
the Ferris wheel at 8:00.

Well, he'd never
keep you waiting.

Hello, I'm Abigail of
Abigail's Flower Market.

Thank you for
coming all this way.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

(FAIRGROUND BELL RINGING)

Hey, what's wrong?

I know you had your eye on
this little guy, but I called him so...

The festival is a
celebration, right?

That means "happy."

It's my own fault.

Look, I know you
didn't want me to,

but I contacted my mom.

I'm sorry. I know how you felt
about her, but I needed to do it.

She told me she'd call me
yesterday, and she never did.

You were so right
about her, again.

I mean, she
disappointed me again!

I... (SCOFFS)

You'd think I'd learn, but...

(SIGHS) I just feel so stupid.

Anyway...

I sent her an e-mail and I told
her that I changed my mind,

and I don't want
to speak to her.

Ever.

I'm just gonna leave
the past in the past.

You know, a candy apple
might make me feel better.

I'll be right back.

(FAIRGROUND BELL RINGING)

Tara seems upset.

She is.

But I don't think there's
anything I can do now.

Trying to protect people,

sometimes we end
up hurting them more.

I'm sorry.

You don't want one?

More for me.

Your mother did call.

That unknown caller
on your phone...

- What?
- I was trying to protect you.

You lied to me?

I thought it was
the right thing to do,

but now, I see that
I can't protect you

from whatever your
mother is gonna do.

But I can help you through it.

You may have
ruined my one chance

at reconnecting with my mother.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

That is looking amazing.

When you're done,
we'll hang it, okay?

Oh!

Courtesy of Dr. Radford.

- Hey.
- Oh, hi!

- I love the lanterns!
- (LAUGHS)

You sent that box of stuff
over and Sam got inspired.

I had a feeling.

- (CHUCKLES)
- Seems like you've done
your own crafts as well.

Yeah, Dr. Radford's idea.

"Free well-check visit
good for a year." Hmm.

Mmm-hmm.

He said he needed to
show everyone in town

that he was serious about
being Middleton's doctor.

He thought this might be the
right way to get the message out.

I think it just might be.

Have you seen him?

No, I haven't.

Oh, well, I'm sure he's
going to be very happy

when he sees I'm
almost out of handouts.

(LAUGHS) Oh!

Wow! That looks great!

SAM: (OVER PHONE)
Dr. Radford. Leave a message.

Hey, Sam.

Are you here?

Okay, call me,
when you get this.

- (CASSIE SIGHS)
- We're all set to go.

Yeah, uh, Sam's not here yet.

Well, where is
he? It's nearly 9:00!

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Can I have your
attention, please?

The cake auction
closes in one hour,

so make sure you've
placed your bids.

It's for a good cause.

Hello, everybody, and
thank you for coming!

For those of you who don't
know me, I am Abigail Pershing

of Abigail's Flower
Market, on Main Street.

And let me be the
first to welcome you

to Middleton's
Annual Lights Festival.

(CROWD CHEERING)

I was honored
when Mayor Tinsdale

entrusted me with this
sacred Middleton tradition.

And I have enjoyed
working so hard

to bring you the best festival.

But I could not
have done it alone.

- No one could.
- Hmm!

So, let's all give our mayor, Martha
Tinsdale, a big round of applause.

(CROWD CHEERING)

Now, this year, I
have a special surprise

in store for you for the town,

sponsored by,
obviously, my store,

Abigail's Flower
Market, on Main Street.

So, if everyone
could grab their coats

and make their way outside to
the Ferris wheel, we can get started.

- What are you up to?
- You'll see.

(MARTHA LAUGHS NERVOUSLY)

ABIGAIL: Thanks.

(ALL MURMURING)

Is everybody ready?

SAM: (OVER PHONE)
Dr. Radford. Leave a message.

(CROWD CHEERING)

Five, four...

ALL: Three, two, one...

(CROWD EXCLAIMING)
