Good Witch (2015–…): Season 2, Episode 9 - A Perfect Match: Part 1 - full transcript

- CASSIE: Ooh!
- Oh, I can't feel my face!

- Come on! (CHUCKLES)
- Why'd we go hiking again?

'Cause the trail was calling us!

Yeah, well, next time,
let's not answer it.

(CHUCKLES) We had
the woods to ourselves!

Well, yeah!

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

Nobody else was crazy enough
to come out in the weather.

Adventurous.

Well, it did bring
back memories.

- Mmm. Montana?
- Yeah.



Seemed like it was
always cold there.

- You loved it.
- Yeah, I did.

- Here.
- Aw, thank you!

- Planning on painting?
- Yeah!

I know it doesn't look
like it needs a coat of paint,

- but it's this thing I do.
- Hmm.

Anytime I move into a new place,

- I just like to start fresh.
- Mmm.

Is there a color you're
leaning towards?

Yeah, that's it.

Hmm, decisive.

I am.

How are your decision
making skills, these days?

I like that color!



I'm not talking about the paint.

- The dig.
- Yeah, any decision?

Well, I can't say
I'm not tempted.

Well, it's the Maldives!

I've never been to
that part of the world.

Yeah, me neither,
which is why...

You're considering it?

It'd be a real adventure.

Exciting.

- Could be.
- Hmm.

You know, I think, uh...

I think this trim color
would look great.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(KNOCKING)

CASSIE: Good morning,
Sam. (CHUCKLES)

Did I startle you?

- In a good way.
- (CHUCKLES)

Wait...

Is this coffee? You
never have coffee.

Well, it's a special occasion.

You finally picked a paint
color for the lake house.

(LAUGHING) Yes, the paint.

So how much longer?

Until?

Until we can talk about
what's on both our minds.

(SIGHS)

I hope I didn't surprise you.

I can't say I was
surprised that it happened...

(BREATHING
DEEPLY) And it was nice.

But?

Well, it's just what if...

Wait, before we examine and
dissect what happened yesterday,

why don't we take a beat and try
to enjoy what happened yesterday?

- It's very Zen of you.
- (BOTH LAUGHING)

Well, you gave me coffee,
I'll give you Buddhism.

We see where this goes?

Yeah.

- Okay, no pressure.
- No pressure.

Sam!

You're up extra early!

I decided to scrap my

biology term paper last night.

And, I don't know,
just start over!

Everything okay?

Yeah, for sure.

Bye, Sam.

See ya.

(DOOR CHIMES)

- A festival for light!
- (SCOFFS)

You missed it last year.

Why does this town have
to celebrate everything?

Yeah, it's fun.

And it's a real boost
to the town's economy.

- So a lot of people come?
- Oh, yeah.

And all the business owners
on main street decorate.

Well, I could use
something like this

to spice things up at my shop.

Business is off?

It's fine, but I want to grow

and for that, I need
new customers.

Hmm. Well,

I'm sure you'll find a
way to make that happen.

Hmm!

What?

You! Something's different.

- No.
- (DOOR CHIMES)

Yes.

Bonnie Neil has abandoned me.

This town! This whole community!

Well, her father just
had emergency surgery!

Oh, and I'm so
very sad for that.

But the fact remains
that she has planned

the Middleton Lights
Festival for the last decade.

And now she's not here
to finish what she started.

This is the town's
biggest event.

There are details and double
confirmations to be done.

Construction, rides, food!

I would do it myself, but
between my budget deadline

and my bustling k-buddy program,

I simply don't have the time!

- I could help.
- Cassie, it's a full time job.

You have two businesses
and a daughter.

I have reached out to everyone
who would have the time and the skill

to take over and so far, no
one's answered my call to duty!

I'll do it.

Oh! (CHUCKLING)

Well, that's very sweet of you.

I can handle it.

- The festival takes
a lot of work.
- I get that.

And you have your
shop to think of.

Trust me, I'm the
perfect person for this.

Well, sounds like you found
your Bonnie replacement.

Martha, I promise this will be the best
lights festival that Middleton's ever had.

Well, uh...

I guess the job is yours, then!

Thank you!

No, thank you for stepping up

and volunteering at
this town's darkest hour.

Well, I do love Middleton.

And Middletonians
will love you back

for saving their festival.

That's the plan!

Well, since you've taken over,

here is your
first official duty.

Bonnie told me, before she left,

to make sure
these get delivered.

I got it.

Ta-ta!

It was nice of you to volunteer.

- Just doing my civic duty.
- Mmm-hmm.

You're up to something.

I'm not the only one.

It's addressed to Sam.

Something tells me you're
gonna be seeing him before I do.

(JAUNTY WHISTLING)

- NICK: You're happy.
- (SCOFFS)

- Am I?
- What gives?

We got the lake house.

- Wakeboarding, here I come!
- (CHUCKLES)

Well, I know you'll be
heading off to London in the fall,

- but that still gives
us the whole summer.
- London?

(SIGHS)

I read your essay, and
you carefully and logically

laid out your reasons for
wanting to study abroad.

You're serious?

If London's what you want to do,

you got my permission to go.

(SCOFFS) Okay, uh, thanks!

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

- Hey!
- Oh!

Brandon, I thought
you were at work.

- I am! I saw you
through the window.
- Oh.

- You seem
a little bit jumpy.
- (CLEARS THROAT)

- Oh, me? No.
- What are you doing?

I was just reading a mommy
blog my friends got me on to.

You seem upset.

I wish I could talk to my mom.

You wanna talk to
your mom? Since when?

Since you and I started talking
about wanting to start a family.

She abandoned you
when you were a baby.

Yeah, and I wanna know why.

But whatever her reasons,

it doesn't change the
fact that she ran away.

Yeah, but what
if I'm just like her?

What if I just end
up running away?

No, you are not your mother.

You don't know
that. I don't know that.

It's why I wanna talk to her.

I don't think that's
such a good idea.

- Why?
- Because she could hurt you.

You don't know what
she's gonna say or do!

DEREK: (ON RADIO)
Hey, Brandon. It's Derek.

I need you over
at the station. Over.

I'm on my way, Derek.

- You have to go.
- I hate to leave you.

I'll be fine.

Bye.

Hi!

Hey.

So you're going to London.

Who told you?

Your dad.

I went to his office at lunch.

I think you're taking this
internship thing way too seriously.

Okay, first of all,

he was looking to outline my
biology term paper and second of all...

Why didn't you tell me?

I don't know.

Hi, guys!

Is everything ok?
I can come back.

No, stay.

We were just
talking about London.

Oh!

Nick's dad is letting him go,

but Nick hasn't
decided if he's going.

Okay, what is
the deal with that?

That is the Lights Festival.

It's huge. And it's a blast.

Everyone in town volunteers.

Ah, I'll catch you guys later.

Gonna go shoot some baskets.

I don't think he likes me.

(SIGHS) His problem
isn't about you.

The bride and groom are what?

Vegans.

Vegans who won't
sign my catering contract

or give me a deposit
until I provide them

with an extensive tasting menu

- made entirely from
plant-based foods.
- Hmm.

I have until the
end of the week.

I'm such a meat person!

Uh, I don't know, I'm just
so not in my wheelhouse.

Yeah, I know. I love hamburgers
way too much to give up meat.

Ah, for me, it's steak.

I guess that's us in a nutshell.
Hamburger, filet mignon.

(SNICKERING)
They're the same thing.

They're just
prepared differently.

- I love the way
your mind works.
- (LAUGHS)

I'm here.

Thanks, but I'll figure it out.

Okay.

- Hey, Ben. Hi.
- Hey, Cassie.

- Hi.
- Hey!

Ben just offered to help
me with the wedding.

Well, he seems very
committed to you.

And yet, he has never offered
any kind of real commitment.

Hmm. Well, what
are you looking for?

Well, in every relationship,
there comes a point where...

(DEEP BREATH) You either
have to move forward or move apart.

You're at that point?

Hmm. Maybe you should
focus less on what Ben wants

and focus more on what you want.

Wouldn't that be easier
if I knew what he wanted?

When it comes to relationships,

easier isn't always an option.

Tell me about it.

- (CHUCKLING) See ya.
- Bye.

- Hi, there.
- Hey, Sam.

I just came from Hillcrest and
thought we might grab a drink.

Oh, how could I say no
to the new Chief of Staff?

(LAUGHING) Yet
another benefit of the job!

Actually, it's not official yet.

So would you accept an invitation
from the Almost Chief of Staff?

Hmm, well for you, I
would make an exception.

(LAUGHING) Good!

Hey, what happened?

Hmm, wait for it.

- Ah!
- (CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHING) Wow!

(SIGHING)

It's stunning.

- Okay so, how
did you do that?
- Hmm. Timers.

- Lots of timers.
- (BOTH CHUCKLING)

(DOOR CHIMES)

Wow, it's beautiful!

Thank you!

- Oh!
- Hmm. What's that?

- It's from Abigail.
- But she gave it to you?

She somehow knew
that I would see you first.

- What is it?
- I don't know, there's only
one way to find out!

Mmm-hmm.

Ah, it's my tickets
for the Ferris wheel.

Ah, I see Bonnie got to
you before she left town.

- Yeah.
- Hmm.

Know, that's new this year?

Auctioning off the first ride on the
Ferris wheel to the highest bidder.

It's a good cause. Did you bid?

No, Bonnie didn't come to me.

She sold it as a couple's thing
and I'm not part of a couple.

Oh, well I'm not either.

Well, I think she knew that
you're an eligible bachelor.

You'd have no trouble
securing a partner.

I guess that depends on you.

- Me?
- Yeah, you wanna
be my plus one?

Oh, people will
get the wrong idea.

Or they might
get the right idea.

Hmm, you know,
what you're asking

is not as simple as just a
ride on the Ferris wheel.

I've never been one for simple.

- The whole town will be there.
- Middleton does have spirit!

We'll just be
honoring that tradition.

Oh, you're good. (CHUCKLES)

Let me think about it.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Oh, I thought you were gonna
give this binder to Abigail?

Well, I've been trying,

but we keep missing each other.

But even without
Bonnie's binder,

Abigail's been out there
working hard for the festival.

- She has?
- Oh, yes!

Every time I go by
her shop, she's out!

Yeah, she does seem quite busy.

But she does need
this binder to finalize

all the contracts for the
vendors and service providers.

Is that the only copy?

It's the official
bible for the festival.

It is a work of art.

Carefully constructed notes

and plans that took
ten years to compile.

But also the blood and sweat

of all those who organized
the festival for decades before.

I have an extra copy under
lock and key in my office.

- (CELL PHONE CHIMES)
- Oh!

Ah, duty calls.

Oh, I can make sure
that Abigail gets this.

Would you? Oh, thank you.

(SIGHS)

Hmm, just missed Martha.

- Did I?
- Yeah.

- She left Bonnie's
binder for you.
- Thanks.

- Tired?
- Exhausted.

Yeah, working
hard on the festival?

Right, the festival, yeah.

- Sam. Hey.
- Hey!

- Did you get your tickets?
- For the Ferris wheel? Yeah.

It's for couples.

I know.

So do you have a date?

Oh, chocolate ice box
cookies, my favorite.

- They look so good!
- Be nice and I'll share.

I'm always nice.

- Hmm.
- What is she up to?

I don't know, but
it's something.

- Hmm, thank you for these.
- Sure.

Oh, she... (LAUGHS)
She left the binder.

I ran into John at the
bistro, he said, "Hey".

- Oh!
- He thinks that you're going
to the Maldives with him.

I didn't say "yes."

But you haven't said no.

I sense you'd rather I not go.

No, I'll support whatever
decision you make.

But I think if you go, it
might be hard for you.

- Oh?
- Yeah, you will
miss me terribly.

- Really?
- Yeah, you might not
last the entire trip!

- (LAUGHS)
- (DOOR CHIMES)

Tara!

- For you!
- (CHUCKLES)

- That's beautiful!
- That looks like
a lot of work.

- Oh, I had the time.
- Hmm.

- I need to get
back to the office.
- See you later.

- Yeah, bye.
- Bye, Sam.

Yeah, well I bake when trying
to work things out in my head.

(CHUCKLES)

Oh, these are adorable!

Oh, thanks! I thought it'd be a nice
way to promote the festival this year.

Oh, my aunt had a big
collection of miniatures

just like this when I was
a kid. I just love them.

Um, did Brandon
tell you what I did?

He hasn't said anything.

I quit my PhD. program.

It was the right thing to do.

But now, I'm not sure what I'm
supposed to do with the rest of my life.

Well, when you take a
step in a new direction,

it doesn't have to be perfect.

It just has to be a step.

- Hmm.
- Thank you for this. It's lovely. Hmm!

Oh, the festival binder!

Yeah, Abigail left this here.

Oh, I could drop it off.

Oh, um, I have a box of
decorations for her too.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(SIGHS)

Eve?

Valerie called twice.
From the hospital.

Did Samuel's lab
work come back yet?

No, not yet. But I cleared your
afternoon schedule like you asked.

- Great!
- Um, I was.

- Hello, Dr. Radford.
- Miss Hall.

- I'm early.
- Yes, first time!

I'll walk her back.

- (PHONE RINGING)
- Dr. Radford's office.

Oh, hey, Joel. Are
you calling for...

Where did you hear that?

Oh!

Are you sure? You are.

Dr. Radford is the new Chief
of Staff at Hillcrest Hospital?

Well, he hasn't
said anything to me.

Okay, let's get you an appointment
before we're out of business.

- Hi, Abigail!
- Hi!

Delivery from Cassie.

Oh, how sweet and
persistent she is.

Oh, wow! Who are those for?

- Stephanie.
- Oh!

It's too bad I won't be able
to deliver them until I close up.

- Oh, I can drop them off.
- Thank you.

I'm just so super
busy with the festival.

- Well, if you have Bonnie's
binder, that must mean...
- I'm in charge this year.

- (THUD)
- Oh, of the whole festival?

- Mmm-hmm.
- Oh!

- Be sure to say "hi"
to Stephanie.
- Ah.

Hi!

Hey! Uh, I'm just
waiting for Grace.

- Yeah, I'm supposed
to meet Grace.
- Oh!

- (BOTH CHUCKLE)
- Thanks.

Something important on there?

- Is that?
- Buckingham Palace.

My dad took the picture.

Every weekend, he picks some
totally tourist thing for us to do.

Just the two of us.

I really miss him. He
still lives over there.

Are you gonna be okay going
to London without your dad?

I think Grace is
worried about you.

A semester is a long time.

(PANTING) Hey, sorry I'm late.

- You asked us both
to meet you here.
- Yes.

I thought that we could take Katie
to the chocolate shop on Clarke!

You guys go ahead.
I got stuff to do, so...

- Nick!
- What?

Look, I'll... I'll talk
to you later, okay?

Oh, well.

(SIGHS)

There you are.

Ooh, who are those for?

- Abigail said they're for you!
- Oh!

There's no card.

Things must be pretty good if
she's giving away free flowers.

Well, maybe she made a
mistake. She's been pretty busy.

You know, she took over for
Bonnie organizing the festival?

- She did?
- Mmm-hmm!

But she hasn't called me
and I handle all the vendors.

Oh, I'm sure she'll call.

She's been so busy, she hasn't even
had time to decorate her own shop.

- Really?
- Not even the posters are up.

(SCOFFS) Well, this
could be a disaster.

- Disaster?
- Oh, never mind.

No, no, no, what's going on?

I probably shouldn't
say anything.

- But you already did.
- Uh.

- Did you hear that Abigail's
taking over for Bonnie?
- Hmm.

- That festival
is a lot of work.
- Yeah, it is.

And if that work
doesn't get done...

- Disaster.
- You said it, not me!

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

SAM: Thanks for coming
all the away out here again.

CASSIE: Happy to be here.

What I'm not happy with
is this contractor. He's late.

Oh, traffic?

It's a two-lane road. The only
thing we passed was a chicken!

(LAUGHING) What are
you thinking about changing?

Well, something for Nick.

Yeah, fun alternative to London?

- I decided to let him go.
- Ah.

Maybe Nick needs some structured
freedom away from home and me.

You know, spread
his wings a little bit.

I don't want going away to
college to be his first adventure.

- Trial run?
- Yeah.

(CELL PHONE CHIMES)

Contractor says he'll
meet us out front in five.

- Oh, you don't wanna be late!
- (CHUCKLES)

(WAVES LAPPING)

So I've been thinking.

I think we should go
to the festival together.

(SIGHING) It's complicated.

Doesn't have to be.

We're friends, we live right next door
to each other, Middleton's a small town.

We got a lot to lose.

Okay, so it's complicated.

- (LAUGHS)
- And we could end up losing
what we have right now.

But if we're willing
to take a chance,

we might end up
finding something that

neither of us ever
thought we'd have.

Come on, you zip-lined,

hiked the Himalayas,
lived in India for a year.

- Might go to the Maldives.
- Mmm-hmm.

But riding a Ferris
wheel, that's just too risky?

Okay.

Okay?

Okay, great!

(CHUCKLES)

- Come on.
- (CHUCKLING)

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Hey, good morning! I
hate when I oversleep.

Aw, did you finish
your term paper?

Ugh, I did. Do
you want to see it?

- Yeah!
- Great, I'll email it to you.

- What's this?
- Ah, John's organizing
a dig in the Maldives.

Did he leave his stuff here?

He wants me to be
his field supervisor.

Wow!

I haven't said "yes," but I would talk
to you before we make any decisions.

- Good morning!
- Good morning.

I thought I heard Sam down here.

Nope, just me! (SNICKERS)

- Hey, you're in charge of
the festival this year, right?
- I am.

Great. Uh, do you have
the signup sheets here?

Yeah, I wanna work a shift at the
Ferris wheel or the kids craft area.

- Consider yourself signed up!
- Wait, really?

- Mmm-hmm.
- Thanks! (GIGGLES)

Bye.

Don't you want to write
that down or something?

I have extraordinary
memory skills.

So I figured out what I'd like
to contribute to the festival.

What's that?

I wanna hold a charity auction to
benefit the library reading program.

And what are you auctioning off?

Eight one-of-a-kind
specialty cakes.

That sounds like a lot of work.

I will need some
help with the baking.

Maybe Sam can help.
I see him around a lot.

(LAUGHS)

You know, if Grace doesn't
know yet, she will soon.

Middleton's a small
town. This will be big news.

And big news in a small town
is hard to keep under wraps.

- (DOOR OPENS)
- (KNOCKING)

- Sam!
- We were just
talking about you.

- Mmm-hmm! You left
these in the car.
- Thank you.

Bye, you two.

(LONG EXHALE)
What was that about?

You and me and the kids.

Ah, you think we
should talk to them?

I just think it should
come from us.

Abigail won't say anything.

Oh, Abigail isn't exactly
known for her discretion.

(LAUGHING) Good point.

(SIGHS) So you think we
should talk to them together?

- Hmm. Tomorrow?
- Dinner.

- Here. Hmm.
- Yep.

What exactly are
we gonna tell them?

- Oh, that...
- (CHUCKLES)

We care about each other.

And we really wanna
see where it goes.

I guess we should
leave out the part that,

if this doesn't work out,

- one of us has to move.
- (LAUGHING)

- Yeah, that would
probably be a good idea.
- Mmm.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

I need more caffeine. I am beat!

Well, Bonnie used to have to take a
vacation after the festival was over.

So you heard, that
I'm taking over for her?

When would you like to get
together to go over the food?

Oh, you know what, I'm
really swamped right now.

Why don't I call you?

Well, it's this weekend.
We don't have a lot of time.

Oh, don't worry. It'll be fine.

- Uh.
- Hi, Cuz!

- Hi!
- Bye, Cuz!

Oh, you look worried again.

Abigail, she said she has everything
under control, but not with the food.

I've started to get calls
from other vendors.

- None of them
have heard from her.
- Hmm.

She's up to something, but
it's not planning the festival.

Actions always have motivations.

That's just the thing.
She's not taking any action.

Like Ben.

You know, you could always ask Ben
how he feels about your relationship?

If I ask him,

I won't know if what he tells
me is what he actually feels

or just what he
thinks I wanna hear.

It has to be
spontaneous. His idea.

Hmm.

I need your help, but
maybe this isn't the right time?

Oh, no, I could
use the distraction.

Well, I wanna hold an auction
to benefit my favorite charity.

I need eight cakes.

Well, how much is someone
gonna pay for a cake?

Oh, a lot, if they're
designer cakes.

Oh, that sounds like an
awful lot of work in a short time.

- For charity?
- What do you say?

Ah, okay!

Hmm, you won't regret it.

- Mmm-hmm. (LAUGHS)
- Thank you.

I can schedule your follow-up
for three weeks from now.

- Will you still be here?
- Me?

Is Dr. Radford closing his
practice? I heard a rumor.

- Really?
- Mmm-hmm. Reliable source.

Huh!

Dr. Radford.

Bye!

When Josephine comes
back for her follow-up,

will you make a
note on her chart?

She didn't schedule
an appointment.

And I don't think I'm reading
this message correctly.

Jill Bradley wants a referral
for a doctor in Blairsville.

- Uh, specialist?
- No, family practitioner.

But that's what I do here!

- Hey.
- Hey.

What happened? You left
kind of quickly yesterday.

Well, uh, I know
what you're doing.

(SCOFFS) I'm not doing anything.

You're pushing me
to hang out with Katie.

(SIGHING) It's not like that.

- Katie misses her dad.
- Yeah!

And that's supposed
to make me think

about how I'll miss my
dad when I go to London.

Just because you don't want to
experience life outside of Middleton

- doesn't mean
you get to stop me.
- Nick.

You've told me
over and over again

about how you could
never leave your family.

Hey, I'll leave Middleton.

- When?
- When the time
is right for me.

I think you'll make sure that
the time is never right for you.

Look, if you're so adventurous,

why not have your mom
take you somewhere?

She's been everywhere.

- (SCOFFS)
- See? You don't wanna leave.

You wanna stay here
because you're afraid.

(DOOR CHIMES)

Yoo-hoo! Just thought I would
drop this off! (CHUCKLES)

Oh, I have one of
those in the window.

Oh!

Is there something
else I can help you with?

Did Abigail get the binder?

Tara handed it
to her, personally.

But she hasn't called me. You know,
just to let me know that she got it?

Martha, you've done
all you can do for now.

- Mmm!
- Hmm.

- Hi.
- Hey!

- Oh, wow! That's a nice poster.
- (GIGGLES)

You know, even though you
aren't a Middleton resident,

you are free to
volunteer for the festival!

- Oh, I...
- I'll put you down to work
a shift taking tickets

at the Ferris wheel.
(SATISFIED LAUGH)

Something tells me you didn't come
here to sign up for the Ferris wheel.

Mmm, actually, I was hoping you had
some more definitive news to share with me.

I know the dig will be the
experience of a lifetime,

but I'm not a
schooled archeologist.

You are all I need to
make this dig complete.

Completion comes in many forms.

I wouldn't feel comfortable
unless you hired someone else too.

Someone who has
practical experience.

Cassie, can't you see this isn't
just about what we would find?

Don't let this
adventure pass you by.

- (SNIFFING) Is that a cake?
- (SIGHING) Yeah.

- Are these all cakes?
- Uh-huh!

- And you're gonna make them?
- Eight of them.

- (WHISTLES) Oh.
- Oop!

- (CLATTERING)
- I got it.

Ugh, I don't know why
I said I could do this!

I was behind
before I even started.

- Come on, you can do it.
- (SIGHING) Not alone.

- You're not alone.
- Yeah, I am!

- I'm right here.
- And you know how to bake?

Not that I advertise it,

but I do know my way
around a flour sifter.

You don't wanna do this.

I'm the one that suggested it.

Well, I can be very difficult
and bossy in the kitchen.

- Newsflash, you can be like
that too picking out a movie!
- (SCOFFS)

We can't even agree
on a movie we both like,

and you wanna help me
bake eight specialty cakes?

Yes, I do.

Very much.

- You're serious?
- About you? Always.

(DOOR CHIMES)

So nice of you to put
my wreath on the door.

- Oh, people love it.
- Really?

Yeah, you have an eye for
what people like. It's a real gift.

(LAUGHING)

- You're back
for your Ferris wheel.
- I am, yeah.

- (RATTLING)
- I love it.

- Oh, yeah.
- Hey, what are these?

Oh, a line of lotions
a distributor sent.

Oh, you know, there's an
expensive French line of products

that I got a sample from
and this reminds me of that.

BOTH: Arella! (CHUCKLING)

Oh, but these are probably
much more affordable.

Mineral-based products
is what everyone wants.

You know, I could really use
someone now and then to cover the shop

and to help with
backlogged inventory?

- What, me?
- (LAUGHS)

I don't have any
retail experience.

Oh, but you have
excellent taste.

And you're family,
I can trust you.

You know, I never thought of you

as anyone who ever needed help?

Hmm, well, every now and then,

we all could use some help.

Hmm.

- (KNOCKING)
- You called?

Mmm-hmm. I'm
looking at my calendar.

I notice a distinct reduction
in my future appointments.

And a lot of cancellations.

(CHUCKLING) Well, you know how
non-committal people are these days.

Eve, where are all the patients?

There's a rumor going
around that you're leaving.

- Where am I going?
- Hillcrest.

Hmm. I didn't tell anybody
about the hospital job.

So it's true?

That I'm going to
work at Hillcrest?

- Yes.
- (SIGHS)

That I'm leaving my
practice here? No.

See, I was planning
to send a letter

to all my patients
explaining the Hillcrest job

and reassuring them that it
wouldn't affect my practice.

Oh, okay!

Mmm.

Well, that's great!
You're staying!

But if my current
schedule's any indication,

the decision to keep this practice
open might be out of my hands.

I can't have a practice
without patients.

- Hey, you!
- Hey!

Uh, whatever you're cooking
in the kitchen smells great.

Oh, just some of my
favorite Indian dishes.

I invited Nick and
Sam for dinner.

That's nice!

Is everything okay?

(SIGHING) Everything is fine.

Excuse me.

- Trouble on the home front?
- (CELL RINGING)

Maybe Grace has figured
out your little secret.

Hello? Pies?

Oh, you're a vendor!

You're the "pie lady!"

You know what, I'm
swamped right now.

Let me get back to you.

Well, I mean it this time. Bye!

Uh, the festival must be
keeping you really busy.

Well, my flower shop isn't.

Hmm. I have a feeling your
business will be picking up soon.

Me too. Enjoy
your dinner tonight!

SAM: Hey!

NICK: Hey!

Oh, he steals!

He shoots, he scores!
And the crowd goes wild.

Ah, the crowd's not going wild!

Nice shot.

Hey, Cassie invited
us to dinner tonight.

Uh, I'd rather grab
something from here.

Ah, come on, it's just dinner.

I'd really like you to go.

What's wrong?

- Nothing.
- Come on.

All right, I'll come to dinner,
but I can't stay for long.

- Great.
- All right.

- What's that?
- Plans for the lake house.

Ah, what for?

Well, I have to rewire
most of the house,

I thought I'd set the place
up with high-speed Wi-Fi.

Turn that back bedroom into
a playroom, uh, gaming room.

Seriously?

Well, nothing says lake house
like state of the art electronics.

- (CHUCKLING)
- You can't wakeboard
all the time.

- (LAUGHS) Thanks, Dad!
- I thought you'd like that.

- Yeah.
- One on one?

- You're going down!
- Ha! That hasn't happened yet!

NICK: All right. Let's
see what you've got.

So, Barrington and Newton
can both spare extra officers

to do security at the festival,

which means we'll
have plenty of men.

I've been in budget meetings
all day today. We can't afford that.

Well, I called in a few favors.

Nice work, Chief Sanders.

- (KNOCKING)
- You have a call on line one.

- I'm in a meeting.
- She says it's urgent.

-It's all right
-(SIGHS) No, no! Stay.

Mayor Tinsdale!

Oh, hello! How are you?

I am so looking forward
to your strawberry... What!

No, the festival hasn't
been canceled. Why?

Why on earth
would you think that?

She hasn't confirmed?

I will get on to
this immediately.

(PHONE CLICKS IN CRADLE)

That was Greta and she thinks
the festival has been canceled.

Abigail hasn't confirmed
anything with her.

If she hasn't dealt with this,
what else hasn't she handled?

(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)

What?

- What do you know?
- (STAMMERING)

Speak!

There's been some
talk around town.

Some people feel that Abigail
might not be up to the job.

Oh!

These are all
about the festival.

And some pie woman is
holding and she's not happy.

(GASPS)

The "pie lady."

(CRICKETS CHIRPING)

(KNOCKING)

- Hi, there!
- Hi.

Is, uh, Abigail around?

Oh, she's still working.

I wanted to volunteer
for the festival.

Really?

Yeah, a local businesswoman inspired me
with her spirit and dazzling light display.

- Where's Grace?
- Ah, she went to the store
to get me some cream.

Nick jumped in the
shower, he'll be over soon.

- That smells amazing.
- Oh, yeah?

- You wanna taste?
- Mmm-hmm.

Yeah.

- Mmm.
- Yeah, you like it?

- I do.
- Hmm.

I like it a lot.

Something wrong?

Mmm.
