Good Witch (2015–…): Season 2, Episode 3 - Out of the Past - full transcript

JOHN: You were fearless.
CASSIE: Oh no, I wasn't.

An armed militia stops you at
the border, it's kind of a big deal.

And you, you're the
reason we got through.

- GRACE: Hey, Mom.
- Oh, hey!

Hi.

Sam, Grace, this is
John, he's an old friend.

- Hey. Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Hi.
- Hi.

So, how's the driving lesson?

- Oh, I killed it, right?
- Well, you are too modest.

- She's becoming
quite a parallel parker.
- (ALL EXCLAIMING)



Oh, yeah. Well,
sit, both of you.

Oh, I would love to, but
pre-calc is calling my name.

- It was really nice
to meet you, though.
- You too, Grace.

Thanks, Sam.

Bye, honey.

Sam, would you
like a glass of wine?

Oh, no, I don't wanna interrupt.

Uh, I was just about to ask Cassie to
authenticate a Chinese artifact for me.

Ming or Tang?

That's what I need you for.

You authenticate art?

Um, I studied art history
in college, it's just a hobby.

She plays a mean
game of scrabble in Farsi.

- Farsi?
- Mmm.



Yeah, Cassie speaks
five languages?

Uh, six.

Six. I stand corrected.

Uh, listen, I have to get
back to a faculty thing, so...

Just bring it by the shop.

Thanks, I will.

- Nice to meet you, Sam.
- Nice to meet you.

Bye. Hmm.

What?

Well, this has been educational.

- Authenticating art?
- Oh, well, it's my past.

Yeah, but I think the good
archeologist is trying to unearth it.

Mmm-hmm.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

Ryan.

Cassie Nightingale.

You're back.

Yeah, I had some
unfinished business,

I figured I'd drop
by and say hi.

Well, I'm glad you did.

Um, maybe we can have lunch?

Yeah, we do need to talk.

Well, just say when and where.

Okay. Tomorrow.

At that new place in Yorkville.

- One o'clock?
- Great. It's a date.

Uh, not a "date", it's a...

You know. (NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

- I do.
- (CELL PHONE RINGING)

Uh, it's my inspector.

I sold my house just...

Hey, there. Can you
just give me a second?

Thanks. I gotta take this.

- I'll see you tomorrow?
- Yeah.

Great.

Hello? Yeah.

Okay.

- Stop that.
- Stop what?

Smiling.

But you like it when I smile.

Not when I'm trying
to stay mad at you.

How could anyone
stay mad at this face?

(STIFLED SNORT)

(SIGHS)

Look, can we just table
the baby talk for now?

I guess we can do that.

Great.

But not forever.

I know.

(DOOR CLOSING)

I've got to feed Nick breakfast,

and Linda stripped
my kitchen of all gluten.

Well, studies have shown that...

That you should be able to have
whatever you want in your kitchen?

And that is why I'm here,

to borrow bread and
cereal, and then, tonight,

I'm taking back my kitchen
one box of pasta at a time.

Good for you!

You know, I still can't
quite get over you

being an authenticator of art.

- I am.
- You never said.

Well, it's not something that
comes up in conversation.

Ah...

You know, there's a new
gallery opening over in Blairsville.

- We could go check it out.
- I didn't know
you were into art.

- Love art!
- Really?

- Yes!
- What's your favorite period?

The... Blue period.

Well, I can't wait to discuss
all things blue with you, soon.

- Thank you!
- Mmm-hmm!

- Those are beautiful!
- Thanks!

Positively guaranteed
to make her swoon.

- Cassie, hey!
- Hi!

- What do you think?
- Well, you've obviously
found your passion.

- Hi, Sophie.
- Hey.

Business is booming. I love
being the only flower game in town.

But it's just you and Sophie?

Mmm-hmm.

Derek.

I have this arrangement
for Stephanie from Ben.

Isn't the bistro right
on your way to work?

Uh...

Say no more.

Thank you.

Such a sweet, helpful man.

Abigail...

What?

Who doesn't like to be the
bearer of fresh cut flowers?

A small business lives or dies

on how much effort the
owner is willing to put into it.

I'm working 24-7.

Ouch!

(PHONE RINGING)

Abigail's Flower Market.

No problem.

Got it, Thursday.

(BEEP)

That was Martha.

She ordered 25 centerpieces

for her town hall
banquet meeting...

In three days.

Great! No problem.

We'll just have to
work double time.

Sounds like you've got
everything under control.

Don't I always?

Why don't we go to
Blairsville for an early dinner?

Oh, I was thinking we could
get a pizza and watch the game.

Uh-huh.

You really wanna
go out, don't you?

Okay, I'll tell you what. I'll record
the game, we can go out for dinner.

- Really?
- Yeah, I'll swing by after
work and pick you up.

Perfect.

- Table three asked for you.
- Okay.

Hi! What can I do for you?

- Stephanie.
- Mom! (NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

You're here!

Hmm! Hmm...

(KNOCKING)

I'm running a
little behind, sorry.

Mrs. Benton.

Uh, it's "Miss".

I'm single.

Oh. My mistake.

And it's Sharon.

Well, Sharon, why don't you
tell me what brought you in today?

- FOP.
- FOP?

You think you have fibrodysplasia
ossificans progressiva?

It's a pretty rare
disease. (LAUGHING)

I think there are only
700 confirmed cases.

I know. What are
the odds, right?

One in two million, actually.

Um, Sharon...

(SIGHING) Fibrodysplasia
ossificans progressiva

is a rare genetic
disease that causes

the body's fibrous tissue, ligaments,
muscles to transform into bone.

(SIGHS) I'm just so relieved
that you've heard of it.

My last two doctors
couldn't even pronounce it.

Let me guess,
you've been online.

Yes.

What makes you
think that you have

this incredibly rare disease?

(SIGHS) I have this dull ache
throughout my entire body,

especially in my ankle.

Why don't we take a look?

Oh, and then, there's this...

My big toe.

It's totally malformed,
classic symptom, right?

Why don't we run some tests
and get an x-ray of that ankle?

If you think that's what's best.

(KNOCKING)

Come in, Chief Sanders!

(KNOCKING CONTINUES)

For goodness sake!

How many times do
I need to tell you that

you don't need to keep
knocking if I've said "Come in"?

- Michael!
- Hey, Mom.

You're home! Oh!

Ah.

You're too thin, we must
feed you immediately.

Oh, I'm so sorry, your
order is almost ready.

It's just really
crazy here today.

Oh, are you okay?

Ugh! My mother's
here for her annual visit.

Oh, I love when
Betty comes to town.

(CHUCKLES) Well, that's because
you aren't on the receiving end of all

her well-meaning
but annoying advice.

- She loves you.
- And I love her.

But she drives me crazy every
time she comes to town and,

since she never bothers you,

- can she stay
at Grey House?
- Yes, absolutely!

Great. Here you go!

So, has she met Ben?

Absolutely not!

She's gonna love
Ben, everyone does.

But she won't approve of him.

Mmm. You're sure it's your mother
who doesn't approve of Ben's job status?

I like Ben, I do. It's just...

(SIGHS) We're so different.

I don't know. I think
things could work out

between Ben and I, but not
if my mother gets involved.

Well, hiding him from your
mom isn't gonna help things,

it may actually
make things worse.

Lunch for two!

- So, who's your date?
- (SIGHS)

I'm authenticating some art.

Mmm-hmm. (SNIGGER)

The man at the far
table looks familiar.

He should. He's been in
here every day all week.

$15.50.

So?

Ming dynasty, 1400 AD.

It's extremely well preserved,

no signs of repair
or restoration.

It's a lovely piece, but it's
not the only one of its kind.

Man, you would've made
an amazing archeologist.

I love the past,

but I have found more joy
focusing on the here and now.

Well, not me.

When I'm on a dig, I can imagine
what life was like in simpler times.

I like that.

Yeah, but when looking back,

sometimes we remember
things how we thought they were,

instead of how they really were.

True.

Very true.

I would love to take you out.

Pay back the favor.

How about lunch
tomorrow? You pick the place.

I have plans with a friend.

Well, you let me know
when your schedule clears.

(DOOR OPENING)

- LINDA: Hey!
- Hey!

I got back from my run
and you guys were gone!

Yeah, well, Mom was
on one of her quests

looking for freshly
pressed juice.

"Pressed", like a suit?

It's good for Nick.

Pressed juice
is full of nutrients

and vitamins, and
Nick needs that,

especially now that he's
working out twice a day.

(SIGHS)

(SCOFFS)

I got rid of all of that.

Yeah, I put it back.

Okay, you know, if you wanna
poison your body, you go right ahead,

but our son deserves better.

I'm gonna be late for school.

I'll drive you.

Hey, listen, I wanna try that new Greek
restaurant tonight. You, me and Nick.

My treat, okay?

- Hey, Cassie.
- Hey, Brandon.

I told Grandpa I'd handle
grocery shopping for him

while he's away this week.
Do you have a list for me?

I do.

Great.

You know, George usually picks up the
pastries for the guests' breakfast as well.

Oh, I can do that,
bistro's on my way.

Yeah, I think the
bistro's an excellent idea.

RYAN: Hey, it's the good doctor.

Ryan!

- I didn't know
you were back.
- Yeah, I am.

- Temporarily?
- Depends.

- On...
- Ah, a lot of things.

Does Cassie know you're back?

Yeah, she does, actually.
We're having lunch today.

- So, you're still single?
- Yes.

And Linda's still in town.

Ooh! Right, the wife.

- Ex-wife.
- Ex.

- Can't be easy.
- Great for my son, though.

Yeah, of course, of course...

Listen, I'll tell
Cassie you said hello.

Great.

Hey, you ready?

For your lesson, yep!

- Was that just Ryan?
- Yeah, it was.

- I didn't know
he was back in town.
- Neither did I.

- It's lovely.
- Oh.

It is. My wife always
wore wraps like this.

She was always cold.

How long since your
wife passed away?

If you were divorced, you
wouldn't still wear the ring.

Ah.

A few months ago.

My condolences.

Thank you.

I'd like to purchase it.

Consider it a gift.

Thank you.

Of course.

Hey. I'm here to pick up
the order for Grey House.

- Thanks.
- (BABY COOING)

- He looks just like you.
- (LAUGHS) Hey, man.

Don't joke. Actually, his mom
says that to everybody in the family.

Personally, I think
I have better hair.

Ah...

Brandon, meet Max, my nephew.

Hello, Max.

Emergency came up
with his mother, so...

- I'm on uncle duty.
- Oh.

Hey, uh...

You think you might be able
to watch him for a little bit?

- I gotta run by the station.
- But you're off today.

I am, and that means
that Don's in charge.

Which is why the dispatcher's
threatening to quit and... Come on.

- I gotta bring some things
over to Grey House.
- That's perfect!

I can swing by Grey
House, I'll meet you there.

- Okay.
- Yes!

Just rock him, all right?
He likes movement.

Yeah, well, you know,
what I like is punctuality.

Don't worry, as long as Max
has his pacifier, it'll be easy.

Thank you!

(SIGHING)

(COOING)

How in the world can
you be afraid of squirrels?

Oh, how can you not be?

Their little diabolical paws,

their scrunched up faces, and that squirrel
darted right in front of us on purpose.

Think you're giving
him too much credit.

He was totally messing with me.

- Spiders.
- What about them?

They're my
squirrel, I hate them.

But spiders are good
luck, whereas squirrels...

Menacingly dart out at
the traffic on purpose?

Yes, exactly. (CHUCKLES)

This has been fun,
teaching you to drive.

Well, it's not over yet.

True! You probably have time for
one more lesson before your test.

And you're sure you
don't need a ride?

No, I'm fine.

See ya.

Okay, bye-bye.

These are all from Sharon.

At this point, she needs her
own dedicated phone line.

You do know she
has a reputation, right?

Not that kind of reputation.

She's in that book club
that I joined. Mmm-hmm.

Rumor is she spends
most of her time

going from one
doctor's office to another.

Yet she never gets better.

You think she's a hypochondriac?

I don't think
she's actually sick.

As much as I trust the
diagnostic ability of your book club,

my gut tells me that
something is wrong.

Okay.

You're the doctor.

I am.

But when you find out that
I'm right and you're wrong,

I so get to say I told you so.

So, I was thinking cocktail hour
with a specialty drink, and then,

a formal sit down
dinner. Steak and lobster.

Ooh! A real celebration!

What do you think?

Tom?

Tom! What do you think?

Michael's welcome home party.

He's moving back because
he got fired and he's broke.

He quit that terrible job.

It was unsuitable for his
intellect and his abilities.

He was a waiter in
a themed restaurant.

So you agree.
Completely beneath him.

He's... He's special.

He's a real talent.

Martha, he's an adult and
he's gotta grow up someday.

Let's make that "someday" now.

Maybe we should have
his party at a restaurant.

Your cousin Jennifer
just got engaged.

Shy little Jennifer getting
married before you.

It's inconceivable!

Ugh, okay,

she has been dating her
fiancee since middle school.

It's not only conceivable,
it's a little anticlimactic.

I just don't like the
idea of you alone.

I want you to put
yourself out there, you...

You need to date,
you need a plan!

Okay, if I fall in love and it
all works out, I'll get married.

That's not a plan,
that's a dream.

Thanks, Mom.

Just came in to get a
potted plant for my mother,

and I'm leaving with
two dozen roses.

Such a good son.

(CHUCKLES)

And handsome too!

(CHUCKLES)

It's okay, Sophie,
I got this one.

(EXHALES)

Thank you so much.

This arrangement that Martha ordered
is very complicated and time consuming.

Oh, you'll get it.
You always do.

(SIGHS)

- Hi!
- Wow!

Abigail, this place is great!

Thanks! Sit?

I don't know. You look
really busy, it's fine.

I'm never too busy
for my favorite cousin.

- Girl talk?
- Always. (CHUCKLES)

Oh! Let me. Let me, it's okay.

- Thanks.
- Yeah.

(SIGHS) I've just been working so
hard on this big order from Martha,

I must just be exhausted.

Oh, well, if you want,
I'm happy to help.

Only if you want to,
Sophie's a little overwhelmed.

Just layer each vase with
an even mix of pebbles

and then Sophie
will add the flowers.

Okay.

So, tell me, what's it like
to run your own business?

It's super fun!

So you guys are good here, then?

What?

Great, 'cause I could
really use a break.

Oh.

(CHUCKLES)

So, uh, you sold your house?

Yeah, but it failed the
electrical inspection.

You should get a second
opinion, another inspection.

Oh, there's a
backlog of inspectors.

It would take too long to
make another appointment.

I bet Martha would help you out.

I think she has not forgotten that I helped
bring that mall project to Blairsville.

Well, people can surprise you.

Yeah.

Sometimes in good ways, and
sometimes in not so good ways.

I surprised you that night.

Yeah.

What happened?

I mean, I didn't imagine what was
going on between us before that night,

and I know I did not imagine
what I saw between you and Sam.

I think I want an explanation.

When Sam almost kissed me...

I was as surprised as you.

That he wanted to kiss you?

That I wanted to kiss him.

So why aren't you two together?

Because I'm still not
ready to be with anyone.

So there's still a chance

that maybe, when you are
ready, we could start again?

I don't feel that way about you.

I thought I did, but I don't.

Okay.

Look, we were friends
before we were anything else.

Yeah, but I always wanted more.

I'm so sorry.

Me too.

'Cause I can't forget how I feel

and just go back
to being friends.

(SIGHS)

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Brandon?

Where are you?

Back here.

I got your text. What's
the emergency?

Oh!

Oh, wow!

That's really cute.

Yeah, well, don't get any ideas.

Too late.

Where did the baby come from?

Hi.

Um, this is Derek's nephew, Max.

Uh, here.

Oh.

Uh, where's Derek?

He's stuck at the station.

- Hello!
- (COOING)

Oh, my goodness! Um, here.

Oh! (CHUCKLES)

- Oh, you're a natural.
- Ha-ha.

But seriously, I need you to
take him 'cause I need a break.

Oh, why don't you just stay?

We'll do it
together, it'll be fun.

Ah, almost.

You just need to put
a little more arc on it.

Uh, Mom texted, said
she was making chicken.

Okay.

Uh, Dad?

- Yeah?
- I gotta ask.

Did you and Mom ever get along?

Oh, yeah, sure.

When we first got
married. (CHUCKLES)

Well, what happened?

People change. We changed.

All I can remember since I
was a kid was you two fighting.

Now, it's like a normal family.

It's nice having Mom around.

Well, she loves you very much.

- Hey, Grace!
- Oh. Hey.

What's up?

You ready for your
last driving lesson?

Um, actually, I was thinking about
that and... It may not be our last.

Why, what do you mean?

I thought maybe I would
postpone my driving test.

It's just I have a lot going on

and, you know, I can
always take it next year.

Plus it'll give you and
I more time to practice.

You're ready.

I don't think I am.

Anyways, you guys
have fun. I won't keep you.

What was all that about?

I don't know.

Enjoy.

- Mom!
- Don't look so surprised.

I just thought you were doing
that walking tour of downtown.

Oh, I'd much rather
spend time with you.

Hey.

Oh, why don't you head back to
Grey House and relax, and I can...

I just got here.

Right. Okay.

I, um, I just need
to see a customer,

but you stay right here, okay?

- Hi!
- (CHUCKLES)

So, let's just head out of here.

(LAUGHING) Wait.

I was just gonna
sit at the counter.

Oh! Why would you wanna
be inside, it's so beautiful out?

- Who's that woman
you were talking to?
- Oh, no one.

Hey, here's an idea.
Since it's so busy,

why don't I personally deliver a late
lunch to you once the crowd dies down?

I was just gonna have a snack.

Snack, lunch,
whatever! (CHUCKLES)

- Okay.
- Okay.

(CHUCKLES)

(CHUCKLING)

(SIGHS)

Who was that man?

Oh, uh, just a customer.

Ah, see, your attitude
is part of your problem.

That cute man could be
more than just a customer.

Hmm.

(DOOR CHIMES)

Martha, you are beaming!

Michael's home.

And all is right with the world.

He quit that horrible
job in California

and he's decided to move
back to Middleton permanently.

Oh, so he'll be looking
for a job locally?

Uh-uh! Not a job, a career.

Ah... Hmm.

This is infused with amber,

which ancient civilizations
believed contained rays of the sun.

Amber's restorative and
has the ability to light a fire

under people, so to speak.

To help with Michael's career.

Oh, well, thank you, but no.

Michael doesn't
need any hocus pocus.

He will be gainfully and
properly employed by tomorrow.

I...

I pulled a few strings
and I set up a job interview

for assistant to the
Middleton bank president.

I'll have Michael's
career on track in no time.

Well, tell Michael
I wish him luck.

Oh, my dear, Cassie,

luck is not necessary when
you're a Tinsdale! (SNIGGER)

Hey.

Oh, what took you so long?

I had to go to two different
stores to find the right diapers.

I have never seen so much stuff
come out of something so small.

(CHUCKLES)

Yeah, but he is awfully cute.

Aw, he hates me.

What? How can you say that?

Here.

Okay. Come here, buddy.

- Oh, yeah.
- Ah!

Why does he like
you more than me?

Well, it's not a competition.

Yeah, says the
guy who's winning.

Hey, I'm wearing a
t-shirt I found in the trunk

and I smell like baby puke.

Honey, there are no
winners in this room.

He's probably just hungry.

But if we feed him, he's just
gonna use up all the diapers again.

Check the bag, there's probably
a bottle of formula in there.

Uh, yeah.

So, warm it up and, um, test
the temperature on your wrist.

I used to take care of
Grace when she was a baby.

Didn't you ever babysit
when you were young?

No. And I was an only child.

Don't worry, buddy, I'll test
it before I give you the bottle.

(GLASS SHATTERING)

Just to be safe.

(COOING)

Yeah, well, would it kill
you to give her a smile?

What's bothering you?

Your forehead gets a certain pattern
when you try to figure something out.

And that's a pretty
big medical file there.

(SIGHS) There is something wrong
with this patient, and I don't know what.

Hmm.

But I'll figure it out.

I like that about you.

- My tenacity?
- Yeah, it's one of your
best qualities.

(CHUCKLES)

Um...

Ryan is back.

We had lunch...

Um, I meant to tell you.

But you were hesitant.

Ryan brings up a
lot of things for me.

So, how was lunch?

Ugh, complicated.

How did you leave things?

Well, he wants something
from me that I just can't give him

no matter how much
I care about him, so...

Not well.

Hmm.

Seeing Ryan and talking to him

just made me
realize that, right now,

I'm not ready for anything
more than friendship.

Duly noted.

And look, as your friend

who just wants you to be happy,

I really hope you're able
to patch things up with him.

Thank you, Sam.

And for the record,

if I had been Ryan, that
wouldn't have happened.

'Cause I never
would've left you behind.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

- It's hard, huh? I was just...
- Quiet!

He just stopped crying.

(SIGHING) I can't
take anymore crying.

He's a baby. It's his primary
mode of communication.

(BABY WHIMPERING)

Where's his pacifier?

He just had it!

(CRYING)

We have to find it.

When I left him
with you, he had it.

Hey, we need to
hold the line here.

We can't turn on each other.

Okay, okay.

Maybe there's a spare.

- Ah, no luck.
- Hmm... Oh!

- Kitchen.
- Kitchen, what?

Tara, he can't walk.

What do you
think, he took it out,

crawled into the kitchen and
stealthily made his way back?

I mean, he's a baby,
he's not Delta Force!

Found it.

Hiding in plain sight!

There you go!

See? Everything's okay.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Does she know who it's from?

No.

Well, she does bear a striking
resemblance to your wife.

It's uncanny.

CASSIE: I know you
don't wanna hear this, but...

Stephanie's not the
answer to your problems.

(PHONE RINGING)

Sophie!

(RINGING CONTINUES)

Sophie!

(SIGHS)

Abigail's Flower Market,
this is Abigail speaking.

Hi, Martha!

Uh... Sorry!

Twenty five more
centerpieces for the banquet.

Yes, that does make 50.

Yeah, of course.
Of course, got it.

Two days.

(INHALES) No problem.

(BEEP)

Sharon called. She
wants another appointment.

Well, let's squeeze her in.

Doc...

You do see what
she's doing, don't you?

What are you talking about?

She's crushing on you.

(GUFFAWING) That's nonsense!

Okay.

But watch yourself
'cause from where I stand,

you're like a turkey

walking around one
day before Thanksgiving,

clueless and on the menu.

- Michael!
- Hey, Mom.

Well? Tell me how
the interview went.

When do you start?
What's your salary?

Any perks? Will you
have your own assistant?

No, I didn't go.

Mom, being an assistant at
my age is not what I had in mind.

I wanna hold out for something
better that showcases my talent.

- Oh.
- (CELL PHONE RINGING)

I gotta take this.

Danny!

Yeah! Yeah-yeah-yeah.
Yeah, hold on.

Mom, I was gonna go meet
Danny, you know, from high school.

Do you have any cash?

Just enough to get
me through the week.

Ah.

You're the best, Mom.

It's good to be home.

Hmm.

Well, hello there!

Oh! Hi.

What's up?

Well, I was at the
bistro, studying,

and they had one piece
of that chocolate cake

that you like, so
I got it for you.

As a thank you for the lessons.

- Well, that's thoughtful.
- Mmm, thanks.

- Actually,
I'm glad you're here.
- You are?

Yeah, I wanted to talk to you.

Me?

Sit down.

(GRUNTS)

What's going on?

Why don't you
wanna take your test?

I'm just not ready.

Was it our lessons?

Oh, no, no. You're
a great teacher.

You didn't do anything.

Are you having
trouble at school?

- No.
- Home?

No.

And I'd prefer not
to really talk about it.

Okay, I won't push, but...

If you do wanna
tell me, I'm here.

Thanks for the cake.

Yeah.

(SIGHS)

- Hello there!
- Hi.

Uh, do you know
where the sugar is?

Uh, sugar... Uh, I don't.

Oh, you're not a guest here.

No, no, I'm just here to
do some work for Cassie.

You were at the
bistro today, right?

Yeah. Hey, you were
talking to Stephanie.

- Oh, you know Stephanie?
- Very well!

- Me too!
- Really?

Yea, I'm... I'm her mother.

Thanks a lot.

- Oh!
- Oh!

- Hi.
- Hi. Uh...

How goes the hunt
for a new inspector?

Not good, actually.

If I don't find someone quickly

to give my house a
clean bill of health,

that deal's gonna fall through.

Well, some losses
are worth fighting for.

Oh.

Sorry, I... You know,
it's my fault anyway,

I should've waited for my
guy to do the work instead of...

Oh! Hello.

- Martha?
- Goodbye!

- Martha. Martha.
- (SIGHS)

I know you don't
owe me any favors.

But I need a new
electrical inspector.

I can have someone at
your house later today.

(SIGHING WITH RELIEF) I
owe you. I owe you, thank you.

Oh, I'm not doing it for
you. I'm doing it for Cassie.

Because any friend of
Cassie's is a friend of mine,

no matter how traitorous he
may have been in the past.

Hmm.

- Because it makes
the most sense.
- No.

Why shouldn't I move
into your spare room?

This is not some cute romantic
comedy where the divorced parents

live together for
the sake of the child

and everything
works out in the end.

Look, Sam, this whole family
thing is no picnic for me either.

I am trying so hard to
stay current at my job that

I have worked my
entire career to land.

But I'm not in
New York, I'm here.

Because I love our son, too.

I wanna move in to be
closer to my Nick. Okay?

(SIGHS)

- Derek!
- Sorry, I'm late.

Ugh!

Hi.

- Hi.
- Where's Sophie?

- She quit.
- Ah.

That happens when
employees are overwhelmed.

Sophie wasn't overwhelmed,
she just wasn't a go-getter.

I'll find other
people to help out.

Don't worry. Things
always work out for me.

Well, new business
thrives or dies on reputation.

If you don't deliver an important
order to a very vocal town mayor,

I think Martha will make
sure everyone hears about it.

I'm the only flower
shop in town.

The one in Blairsville is three
times the size, and it delivers.

People will think twice about going to
a place that has proven to be unreliable.

Give them a
discount and tell them

thank you very much
for waiting. Okay?

Uh, table for two, please.

I'm treating my new friend.

(NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

(DOOR CHIMES)

I came to say goodbye.

- Your house passed inspection?
- Oh gosh, no.

But Martha's inspector referred
me to a reasonable electrician

who can do the job quickly
so the sale can go through.

Well, sometimes, we
all need a little rewiring.

Mmm-hmm.

You told me that sometimes
people can surprise you.

Hmm.

Listen, I didn't...

exactly leave things with you in a
very good place, and yet you helped me.

Thank you.

You said you
couldn't be my friend,

but I never said I
couldn't be your friend.

Yeah. I guess we've
come full circle, haven't we?

Well...

Maybe that means we
can start all over again.

I think we just did.

Friends hug, right?

Yeah, good friends hug.

(CRICKETS CHIRPING)

(DOOR OPENING)

(DOOR CLOSING)

Hey!

Oh...

He's adorable.

How long has he been here?

All day.

Derek's on his way over now.

Did you, uh, pick up
everything I need at the bistro?

(SIGHS)

Ahem! You wanna talk about it?

No.

(GRUNTS)

Linda.

I'm at an impasse.

Marriage may not be
forever, but kids are.

So I have a choice.

I can either make Nick
happy and be miserable

or make myself
happy and hurt Nick.

(SIGHS)

I heard Ryan left
town, are you okay?

Yeah, it's always a little
sad when friends leave.

- Friends again?
- We patched things up.

- I'm glad.
- Thank you.

So, do you have any of that
tea that tastes like coffee?

I do, and I am making
pasta tonight for dinner.

- Ah, gluten!
- (LAUGHS) Yay!

- Let's!
- Okay!
