Good Witch (2015–…): Season 4, Episode 9 - How to Make a Middleton Quilt - full transcript
Grace, in Middleton tradition, enlists the help of the town in making a magical quilt said to grant the wishes of the recipient; Cassie and Sam learn more about each other as secrets are revealed at their bachelor and bachelorette parties.
- Previously on Good Witch...
- Sounds like you've an admirer.
- You think?
- How many reviews call the
restaurant owner "attractive"?
- Solving another local crisis?
- The city never sleeps.
- What made you
end up in Middleton?
- It's a place to live.
What kind of flowers are those?
- Cyclamens.
- I love the flowers we saw
today for our wedding. And I
learned about this great
idea where we write each other
letters the night
before we get married.
- I love that.
- I can't believe you're putting
together an entire wedding
in less than three weeks.
- When you're ready to get
married, the answer is why wait?
Good morning.
- Morning.
- I made you some toast.
- Aw. Oh!
Thank you.
Ooh! What're you up to, Grandpa?
- Oh, these curtains
keep falling off the rod,
so I'm hooking them back on
with these things that
I found in an old vanity.
- Those are hair clips.
- You can call them
anything you want.
All I know is they
hold this to this.
- So, Mom, have you
decided what time you want
your bachelorette party
to start Friday night?
- Oh, I don't know. 7 o'clock?
- I'll get started
on the invitations.
- Morning, Sam.
- Ah! There he is,
our groom-to-be.
- 10 more days.
- Ah, the countdown has begun!
- When are you gonna have
your bachelor party, Sam?
- Eh, I'm not planning
on having one.
- You're not?
- It's not really my thing.
- That's too bad. I was
sort of looking forward
to letting my hair down.
Well, I guess I'll have
to hold it up with one of these.
- Oh! Come on in, Martha.
- Well, the front door
was unlocked, so I already
did. I came by to see if you have
any more of that thread
that we used the last time
we all worked
together on a wish quilt.
- I think I do. It should
be in this drawer.
- Has Cassie told you
about the gift that the ladies
of Middleton will be presenting
to the two of you?
- We're making you a wish quilt.
- Oh. Well, I'll
still act surprised...
which will be easy, because I
don't know what a wish quilt is.
- It's a Middleton tradition.
- And it was started by my
wait, let me get this right...
My great-great-great-
great-grandmother.
- Catherine Merriwick.
- All the brides friends get
together to sew a quilt made up
of squares that mean
something to the bride and groom.
- And they say if
you make a wish
while you're working on
it, that wish will come true.
- Well, mostly it's to emphasize
our connection to each of you
and how grateful we are to
have you both in our lives.
- Or you can use it to keep your
feet warm when they get cold.
- Oh. Well, then I already
know it's a gift I'm going to use.
- Oh, and Grace? I'll see
you and the other quilters
this afternoon at Needlework.
Bring your finest sewing hands.
- Oh, I carry them
with me wherever I go.
- Oh!
- Goodbye, Martha.
- Oh! Hello, George.
♪♪♪
- Morning, Abigail.
- Brandon, you're
the right person
to ask. Is this a
good neighbourhood?
- Every neighbourhood
in Middleton is
a good neighbourhood.
- But are the homeowners nice?
Do they take in their
trash bins? Do they throw
loud parties? I'm thinking
about buying a place for myself.
- You're moving
out of Grey House?
- Well, Sam's moving
in after the wedding,
and I figured I should
give them some space.
It seems like the right
time to make a change,
and I never really
thought about Middleton
as a place I'd
live forever, but...
it's starting to feel like home.
- That's great! Well, when
you find a place you like, let me
know and I can tell you if the
neighbours are friendly or not.
They're all pretty friendly.
- But are these people
gonna want to invite me over
for backyard barbeques
and chat about the
weather over the fence?
- You know, that kind
of thing actually happens
a lot in Middleton.
- Well, I still think
I'm going to enjoy
having a place of my own anyway.
- Oh!
Cassie, I need your help.
- Oh, sure. Let me just finish
helping this customer.
- What? Oh. Drink some tea
and light a candle.
It'll perk you right up.
- I'll just be a minute.
- Do you sell purses?
- Martha, I don't
have everything.
- Oh, I knew it was a long shot.
- Oh, but I did have some things
brought over by the high school
drama department this morning.
Maybe there are
some purses in there.
- I'll take a look. I was
working on that wish quilt
of yours when I realized that
I had accidentally given away
a purse that would've
gone perfectly with the dress
that I bought for your wedding.
- Well, Grace is really looking
forward to getting
together with all of you
and sewing on her square.
- And it's so wonderful to see
the excitement of youth,
which is why I didn't wanna say
anything about her
not getting her hopes up
about this silly 'when
you wish upon a quilt' idea.
- You don't believe in that?
- I grew up working on quilts
with my mother and she would
always ask me what new toy
I wished for. And
then lo and behold,
it would appear like magic.
But I figured out that it was
she who was doing the shopping.
- Well, it was nice of
her, though, to make sure
you got your wishes.
- Perhaps,
but eventually I had to
get used to the realities
of life, rather than
just the fantasies
of the wide-eyed
child that I was.
- I like to believe there's a
wide-eyed child in all of us.
- Well, mine still needs a
purse for your wedding, so...
- Well, what kind
are you looking for?
- Oh, I'd be thrilled if I
could find something like
the one I gave away. It had
pearl-coloured beads
over a silver base and...
There it is! Well...
How did the purse
that I gave away
make its way here?
- The right things always
seem to come back to those
who love them.
- Well, I certainly love this.
- I know. I can tell by how
wide-eyed you've become.
- Oh!
♪♪♪
I'm so glad that we
can all finally get together
and start working on this.
We should've started weeks ago,
but I think if we keep at it,
we can have the quilt done
by Cassie's bachelorette party.
- Ooh, which I will be
passing out invitations
for later this week,
but it'll be on Friday
at Grey House at 7.
But you guys are still
gonna get invitations
because I made them
myself and they look great.
- OK, how big are
these supposed to be?
- Oh. Here, you can use
this square as a guide.
- Oh, thank you. I am making
my square out of an
apron from The Bistro.
- That's a wonderful idea.
- Yeah! And it comes
with a complimentary
dinner for two
for the first time that Sam
and Cassie wanna come in
as a married couple.
- Even more perfect!
- That looks really good.
- Yeah, it turned out
great. It's the same colour
as the first rose that
Sam bought for Cassie.
- Aww.
- Boy, if I
had a dollar for every
flower he's bought her...
Well, I guess I have
a lot more than that.
A man in love is
very easy to upsell.
- Well, I'm going to put
the town crest on mine.
The new one, since we
just had it redesigned.
- Well, you did a great job.
- Oh, you're too kind!
So what is the maid of
honour's square going to have?
- Well, I put my
name and my birthday
and I'm sewing on
a pair of socks too,
which my mom said
used to be my favourite
but now, they
barely fit on a toe.
Although they do look comfy.
- Well, I'm sure the sight of
those will make your mother
very happy, just as happy as
she'll be when you present her
with the four somethings.
- The four somethings?
- It's for the bride on the
wedding day: something old,
something new, something
borrowed and something blue.
- The maid of honour is
supposed to get those.
- I didn't know I was
supposed to do that.
I hadn't even thought about it.
- I'd be happy
to find them for you.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
- Martha used to be
a wedding planner, so she's
got lots of experience thinking
about those kinds of things.
- I don't wanna brag,
but prenuptial preparations is
one of my many strong suits.
I can find your four
somethings in my sleep.
- Thanks.
- Excuse me, Madam Mayor.
- Jared.
Pull up a square.
- Oh. No, no.
I'm just here to get
some papers signed.
- A mayor's work is never done.
- This month's
new business licenses
were dated incorrectly.
- Well, who did that?
- There's no need to name names.
It was me.
But we'll get this batched
signed, and we can go ahead
and have them
open just as planned.
- All right. Let's see.
"The Oasis Day
Spa." Where's that?
- Oh, it's right around
the corner from The Bistro.
Yeah, I'm catering their
opening event tomorrow.
- In that case, I better
give them the official OK.
- Oh, I would love to
spend a day at a spa.
- Who wouldn't?
- A whole day
just getting pampered?
- Sign me up too.
- This is gonna turn into
one very interesting blanket.
- It's a quilt, actually.
- What's the difference
between a quilt and a blanket?
- A quilt has baby socks
on them.
- Ah...
♪♪♪
After you guys get married,
are we gonna be having dinners
like this together every night?
- We don't have
to do it every night.
- Oh, I was kind of hoping
we would. I mean, I'm gonna
need a place to eat.
- So many mouths to feed.
- Mm. Did you have a
nice time with Martha,
working on the quilt?
- Oh, we had a great time, Mom!
I mean, working together,
talking about everything
that we wanted to do for fun.
Oh, did you know that there's
a new spa opening
up near The Bistro?
- Oh, Oasis?
- Yes, that's it!
Everybody was talking about
how much they would love to have
a day there, so they are
going to be getting plenty
of business.
- Well, maybe I'll have
to take my maid of honour
there before the wedding
so we can relax.
- She would like that very much.
- I remember doing
that kind of thing
with my friend Melanie
before her big day.
- Wait, who's Melanie?
- Oh, Melanie Anderson.
We did some
volunteer work together
at the end of college
and got really close.
And then when she
got married, the week
after graduation, she asked
me to be her maid of honour.
That was the last time
we saw each other.
- What happened?
- Life, I guess. We both
went off to different parts
of the world and just kind
of lost track of each other.
Yeah. That happened a
lot before the internet thing.
- Mm. In ancient times.
- Yeah, I tried to look
her up online once,
but I didn't know what
name she was going by, so...
I guess I'll just have to
get by with the memories.
- Well, this is ready.
- Does that mean we can eat?
- As soon as
somebody sets the table.
- We have to use dishes?
- We are still guests here.
Thanks so much for
coming in, Mrs. Kim.
Dr. Radford is trying to see
as many patients as he can
before he goes off
on his honeymoon.
- He was going to
give me a referral.
- I'll print out the
doctor's name.
Oh, this has been
happening all week. It
freezes up every time
I try and print something.
I'll write it down for you.
- Who's next?
Ah, Mr. Cassio. Come on back.
- And here you are.
- Thank you.
♪♪♪
- Hi, Risa.
- Oh, Grace! Do you know
anyone who has enough
room to take care of three dogs?
- Aww!
- I've been fostering
these guys for the
last couple of days,
and I really wanna make
sure they all end up together.
- Well, you never wanna
split up good friends.
- They're really well-behaved
and they love to play,
and the one in the middle, when
he's scratched behind the ears,
he sighs really loudly.
- Well, at least he and I have
one thing in common.
I will spread the word.
- Thanks.
- Hi.
- Hey, Grace.
- Mom! Hi, Tara.
- Hey, honey. Have
you had lunch?
- No, I was just about to.
- Tara and I were just waiting
for a table.
- Do you wanna join us?
It's on me.
- Oh! Well then, I got here
just in time.
- Oh! Cassie,
do you have any
more of that pink salt
that you sold me that's
better for Tom's heart?
- I do.
- I'm gonna need more
until we hear about
Tom's test. He went in
for a cholesterol check but
apparently, there's some sort
of backlog at the lab and I
want him to keep eating healthily
while we wait for the results.
- Here you go.
- Oh.
- Why are you
carrying pink salt
around in your purse?
- Because if I carried
it in my hands, it would
fall through my fingers.
- When's your car
supposed to be fixed?
- Oh, I don't know. Every couple
of days, my mechanic just says,
"in a couple more days."
- Well, if you need anyone
to carry any more
boxes for you...
- I will let you know.
- All right.
- Thanks.
- So, what's all this?
- Oh, these are gift baskets
from the grand opening of Oasis.
The owner gave them to
me as a thank you for catering
the event, and I wanted
to give one to each of you.
- Ooh!
- There's a gift certificate
for a free day in every one.
- Are they good any time?
- Uh-huh,
for a full day of pampering.
- Respite for a mayor's
weary bones!
- I'll take it for my bones too.
- That's quite the coincidence.
- What is?
- Well, Grace told me that
you had all wished for a day
at the spa, and you
got what you wanted.
- Yeah, I guess we did.
- Huh. Maybe that quilt
you're all working on
is already doing its job.
♪♪♪
- This is coming along so well.
- I know. My mom and
Sam are going to love it.
- What are those?
- Ooh! I had these lapel pins
made to match the
new design for the crest,
and I thought I'd pin
a couple to the quilt.
- Because the more
Middleton, the better.
- Now Grace, let me
know when you're finished
with that sashing, and I'll
have you work on the border.
- Oh, if that's the case,
then I can get started
on the border right now.
Done.
- What?
How did you finish so fast?
And every stitch is perfect...
- Oh, and look at what I found!
If we need another square,
it was in the trunk that
came from the art institute.
- With Elizabeth
Merriwick's clothes?
- It's got her
initials right here.
- Ooh!
- And I think it's
just about the right
size to be a square
on the quilt.
- We'll figure out where it fits
and then we'll sew
it on at the very end.
Oh! Excuse me.
I can't get a moment away. Ah.
Yes, Jared?
Tonight? No, no.
I can't do tonight.
Definitely can't do tonight.
Well, I don't know! They're just
gonna have to play three-handed.
Honestly! You'd think that
not having a fourth for pinochle
was the end of the world, as if they
can't get by one week without me.
- I could sit in if they
need to fill another seat.
- You play pinochle?
- No, but...
I wanna meet new people
and how hard can it be?
- The game has taken
me a lifetime to master.
- Ooh, that long?
Just tell them I'll be there.
- Fine, but these women
take their card-playing
very seriously, so...
- I will make sure I look
very serious when I show up.
- Hide the quilt, ladies!
The bride-to-be is here.
- Ooh, Cassie! Come on in.
- No, no! It's OK! I was
just dropping Stephanie off
and I don't wanna see
anything until it's finished.
- We can keep it out of sight!
- Well, OK.
- Cassie and I were just
discussing when we can get
to Oasis to use
our gift certificates.
And I have one for you too.
- Thank you! I heard you got
a bunch of free days there.
- It's kind of like
what we all wished for.
- As if one thing had
anything to do with the other.
- Well, you did get
your purse back too.
- I suppose I did.
- What would you wish for, Tara,
if there was something
you always wanted?
- Well, remember after I got
my master's and I was gonna
go for my PhD?
- At Cambridge.
- I was doing lab work at
the school and really liking it
and... I kind of wish
I could do it again.
- And what about you, Martha?
- Oh, I'd wish for what every
mayor wants, just one day
without people wanting so many
moments of my time so I could
finish the quilt and get
ready for your wedding.
- You know what I'd wish for?
I'd wish for Risa
to find a place
for those dogs. I don't want
them to have to get split up
and worry about where
the other ones went.
- Well, I would wish
for a personal chauffeur
so that my friends didn't have
to drive me around everywhere.
Oh, and three more wishes.
But I guess I would've
had to wish for that first.
- And you, Abigail?
- That three more wishes thing
sounds like the right way to go.
- But after that?
- I don't know. Maybe...
I don't know.
- Well, when you
decide on something,
let me know if it
ever comes true.
- Cassie?
- It was really good to see you.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, I was just in
the neighbourhood and wanted
to say hi to one of my customers.
- I didn't think your customers
ever needed places like this.
- There are a few who
don't do exactly as I say.
- Hmm.
- Hi, Cassie!
Sam. Oops! I guess I should
call you Dr. Radford
when we're at work.
- When did you get
a job at the hospital?
- This is my first day. The
lab called last night and said
they'd been behind with
test results and would I be
interested in helping
as an assistant.
- I didn't know you applied.
- Oh, they had my resume
from a few years ago and I
don't know, it somehow ended up
at the top of the stack. Maybe
what they said about that quilt
really is true.
- Mm-hmm.
- What?
- I saw you talking
to that hospital administrator
who does the hiring for the lab.
- Oh, is she the one that
handles that sort of thing?
- Are you the one that told her
Tara would be good for the job?
- I don't know the details
of hospital hiring practices.
- Don't you?
- Mm-mm. Sometimes things
just happen, Sam.
- As if by magic.
- If you say so.
- Hi, Abigail.
- Hello, Grace.
- I brought you something.
It's the official invitation
to my mom's party
tomorrow night.
- I wouldn't miss it.
- I know how excited she is
to see the quilt. And to
hear if our wishes came true.
- I might be sitting that part
of the conversation
out. Wishes and I
don't have a great
history together.
- Abigail...
What you wrote
in that birthday book
was a long time ago.
- And I've regretted Shaun
McLachlan my whole life.
- But if you were to wish for
something, what would it be?
- Can I just go with an overall
something other than a guy?
- You can go with
whatever you want.
- Because I guess what I
want the most right now is to...
I don't know.
Settle in. Meet people who feel
the same way about
Middleton that I do.
People who look at this
place like it's their home
and actually wanna stay here.
- There are plenty
of people like that!
- Well, I can't just sit
around and wait for them
to walk through my door.
- Liam!
- Oh. Hey, Grace. Hi.
- Hey. Can I help you?
- Yeah, I wanna get
some flowers and maybe some
chocolates for my neighbours.
- They're having me over
for dinner tonight and they've
really made me feel welcome,
which is just another reason
I love living here.
- Middleton's a really
nice place, isn't it?
- Yeah.
I don't know why anyone
would ever wanna leave.
- Hmm.
- I don't recognize half
the things on that shelf.
- This is where they keep the
organic and all-natural foods.
- Well, that explains it.
- Oh, would you look at that?
Even before they're married,
they're already shopping
together, putting all
of Middleton's other
couples to shame.
- Well, that's our goal.
- What are you two doing here
this time of night?
- I had to make an appearance at
a neighbourhood watch meeting,
and Jared wants something
to raise his blood sugar before
he drives me back to City Hall.
- I feel I need to
be at my most alert
when transporting
such precious cargo.
- Now, no dawdling. I have
wall-to-wall meetings tomorrow
that I need to prepare for,
which is barely leaving me
any time to help get
things ready for your party
like I promised your
daughter I would.
- Well then, I hope you find
those few extra moments
that you need.
- Oh. Is that me?
- No. Mine.
Oh! Looks like your morning
meeting got canceled.
- Well, that's a
bit of good news!
Oh!
And the one after that
needs to reschedule
'til next week.
- Fine by me.
And the city manager
needs to push tomorrow's
working lunch 'til some day
next month, and he
also wants you to know
that the Sanitation Department
doesn't need to get together
until Tuesday.
- Wait.
Does that mean that suddenly,
tomorrow is completely clear?
- You have the
entire day to yourself!
- Well, that's like
a wish come true!
In fact, that's exactly
what I wished for on that quilt.
- Really?
- Oh, come on! Let's get you
fueled up so I can get home
and start my day of freedom
as early as tonight!
- Yes, Madam Mayor.
- Well... that was nice of you.
- What'd I do?
- I'm not quite sure.
- Hmm.
- I'm watching you, Nightingale.
- You let me know what you see.
- Oh, I will.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh! Is that the same kind of
a cake that Stephanie brought
to my surprise party?
- I knew it was your favourite.
- It's really good.
- Oh. You seem happy.
- Hi.
- That's 'cause Risa found
a place for these dogs!
Somebody saw the flyer,
said they had the perfect home
for them with plenty
of room to play,
and they can all stay together.
- Well, that's great to hear.
- I'm gonna go get a coffee.
- OK.
- Well... and the
list keeps growing.
- Uh, what are we
keeping a list about?
- Something tells
me that your daughter
mixed in a little wish-making
with her quilt-sewing,
and that you had something
to do with making it come true.
- Well, I don't know
how I could've done that.
- You're not saying you didn't.
- I don't think
I'm saying anything.
- Why don't you?!
Why don't you tell people
what's going on, so they know
these things don't just happen?
- There's nothing wrong
with letting people see that
there's magic in the world.
- Agh.
- Hey, you two.
- Hi.
- So I hear that you're
not having a bachelor party?
- Nope. Sorry.
- Come on! I was looking
forward to, you know,
hanging out with the guys.
- You might still get a chance
to hang out with the guys.
- Yeah, but not with Sam
as the centre of attention.
- That! Me being the
centre of attention,
that's enough reason
for me to not want to go.
- All right, I get
it. See you later.
- See you.
How do you think
Stephanie makes this?
- Maybe one day, she'll
let you in on her secrets.
♪♪♪
Liam.
Hi.
- Hi, Abigail.
Um, do you have a second?
I have something I need
to talk to you about.
- With me?
- Well, you're the one
I came here to see.
Heh. OK.
- Oh, Abigail! I'm
glad I caught you.
- Margaret. Liam, this is
one of the women I played
pinochle with last night.
- Playing pinochle now?
- Yes, and she plays like a
pro, which is why the ladies and I
voted you into our regular
rotation starting next week.
- Isn't that Martha's seat?
- Oh, please! That woman
doesn't know a jump bid
from a non-trump run, but you
seem like you've been playing
the game your whole life.
- I enjoy it, that's all.
- So, you'll join us?
- Sure, sign me up.
- Wonderful! It was
nice meeting you.
- You too.
So...
I'm sorry.
Abigail's.
Yes, we do. How many?
And it's for pick-up?
4 o'clock. Sure.
Thanks.
Sorry.
- You know,
I can catch you later
if you're busy. It's...
No, it's OK! Just...
Abigail's. Hold please.
Now, we have all
the time you need.
- Um...
You know what?
This is probably something
I should talk to you about
in private anyway, so...
maybe another time?
- Sure.
- OK. I'll see you later.
- Oh, how's Mr. Borma doing?
- Well, but could you
print out a full listing
of his medications? He wants
to make sure that everything
is up to date. Oh, that's right.
You're having printer problems.
- Oh, not anymore.
- How'd you get it working?
- Mr. Cassio came in for
a follow-up appointment
and worked some sort of magic
while he was waiting to see you.
- So, that's good then.
- It's sort of like a wish
come true. Oh, before I forget,
Liam called, and he
let me make sure
I get this right...
He wants you to meet him
at your house at 7PM
so he can escort you to an
event that Cassie has planned
marking your transition
into married life.
- That sounds like
a bachelor party.
- He told me to tell you
it wasn't a bachelor party.
See?
- I guess I can do that.
- Do you want me to put this
into the computer
and print it out for you?
- No, I think I can remember.
- I'm gonna do it anyway,
just so I can see it

- Whatever makes you happy.

Where are you taking me?
- Not too far.
And we're here.
- Cassie wanted you to
bring me to Grey House?
Why?
- All I'm doing
is following orders. Let me
know if you have a good time.
- What, you're
not coming inside?
- No, I've got
somewhere else to be.
- Somewhere else?
- She said just to go right in.
- There he is!
- Hey!
- You made it!
- I did,
but I'm not sure
I'm in the right place.
- Oh, you're in the right place.
- Yeah. This is your party.
- My... what?
- My mom thought that you
would like things better this way.
- So... this is my
bachelor party?
- Oh, no. Of course not. Everybody
knew that you didn't want one of those.
- But Cassie thought you
wouldn't mind hanging out
with us.
- We thought that we could watch
a movie, maybe play a game.
- And Cassie also suggested
that I teach you to bake a cake.
- Oh, we're...
going to bake a cake?
- It's the one you really like.
- Yellow cake with
chocolate frosting?
- Yes. I got everything we need.
- Well, this is turning into
a party I could learn to love.
- Well, before things get
too messy in the kitchen,
we have something
special just for tonight.
I hope you like it, because
there's one for all of us too.
- Well, now it is a party.
- All right, let's get started.
You can crack the eggs
over there and I'll sift the flour.
- I'm on it.
- I don't suppose the guys
are wearing aprons with
Cassie's face on it at their party?
- I doubt it, no.
- Oh, the guys are
having a party? Where?
- Nice. Maybe we should team up.
- Although I guess we can't
play boys against the girls.
- How about...
whoever can sink a
run to the 8 ball wins.
- You sound like you've
played this game before.
- I might've spent some
time in a hall or two.
What's a run?
- It's all of the solids
or all of the stripes.
- Should we put
a little bet on it?
- Sure. How about... a
month's worth of car washes?
- That's hardly a bet.
- OK, then.
Let's make it a year.
- Oh!
- And now it's a bet.
- Who goes first?
- It should probably
be ladies first.
- Such a gentleman! OK.
- Here you go.
- Thank you. All right.
What am I aiming at?
- If you wanna go for the
solids, start with the 1 ball.
- OK, the 1 ball.
- That's the yellow one.
Right there.
- OK. And what happens
if I make it?
- Then you go for 2 through 8.
- Sounds simple enough.
- It's not quite so simple.
- Isn't it?

- So, when can we eat it?!
- Well, as soon as it cools.

- Hi, Martha. Grab an apron.
I don't know if there are any
more with my face on them...
- Oh... my.
I'm so sorry, I don't
have time to participate.
Grace, I need some
more of that thread
that your mother gave
me for the quilt. I ran out
with just a few stitches to go.
- Well, she keeps all of that
in here. Uh, what colour?
- Oh, I'll take
whatever you have.
- Well... Here.
- Oh, thank goodness.
- I'll be back as soon as I'm
finished, and then we can make
the presentation.
- I can't wait for Sam
and Cassie to see it!
- I know, I know! So I
better work fast.
- I don't think I've ever
heard myself say this,
but I'm really looking
forward to seeing a quilt.
- It really is nice.
- And what they say about it
making dreams come
true might actually be true.
- And you really believe that
there's magic in a blanket?
- Maybe.
- Come on.
- I wanted to work in a lab
for years, but I never actually
said it out loud. And then I
did say it and the next day,
I had a job.
- Martha got her day off.
- My printer started working.
- And there are three dogs
that have a brand-new home.
- And you think that's because
of the wishes you made?
- Well... what's
so wrong if we do?
- You are actually
really good at this.
- All it takes is a smooth hand,
like bisecting a
tricuspid valve.
- That medical degree's
finally good for something.
- So, this is where
the party's at.
- Cassie! And... everybody.
Where have you all been?
- At your bachelor party.
- And we had a great time.
- Yeah. The only thing
missing was the actual bachelor.
- Although it looks
like you guys had fun.
- We did. I... did.
- I was hoping
you'd be here tonight.
- Well, I'm a bachelorette.
- So can we maybe finally talk?
- Um, sure.
- Great. How about...
- Oh, good! Everyone's here.
Tom, do you have
the frame for the quilt
in the back of your car?
- I do. I can set it up.
- Let me give you a hand.
- Good. Now, someone's gonna
have to clear away
all this furniture.
The quilt is gonna
look wonderful.
We can display it right here,
in the centre of the room,
using the wooden clips
that I...
forgot at home.
- Well, is that a problem?
- It's a huge problem!
We need something to
clip the quilt to the frame,
and now we have nothing!
- Would some old-fashioned
hair clips do the job?
- Hair clips?
- Well, they did a great job
attaching a curtain to a rod.
Maybe they'd do the same thing
for the quilt and whatever
you attach a quilt to.
- Well, I suppose
they'll just have to do.
- There's some in the kitchen.
- So, um... how was your
what do I call it...
Bachelor party?
- It was fun. We hung out at the
microbrewery, played some pool.
- I didn't know you played pool.
- Oh, a little bit.
- Huh. I'll have to challenge
you to a game sometime.
- I'm always up for a
little friendly competition.
- So, what did you
wanna talk about?
- Well...
I've been living
here for a while now,
and I've really started to
consider Middleton my home.
- Me too.
- And... that got me
thinking about all the people
I've gotten to know here.
- Uh-huh.
- So, I was
wondering if you think
Stephanie would
wanna go out with me?
- You and Stephanie?
- Yeah. Well, you
know her so well, and I...
I don't know why I'm
being so high school
about this. I just...
I was wondering
if you thought that she might,
or if we might...
I wanted to know what
you thought first. That's all.
- Let me tell you
something about Stephanie.
She's a great friend,
a great person. One of
the best I know, actually.
And I think the two of you
would be fantastic together.
- Really?
- I never say
things I don't mean.
Well, unless it's for
a legitimate purpose.
But I meant every word of that.
- Then that's good to hear.
So, I guess we better
get back to the party.
- Yeah, we probably should.
- Well, those work just fine!
- I'm gonna want these
back when we're done.
I've grown as attached to them
as they were to the curtain rod.
- Grace, as maid of honour,
it's your job to present
the bride with her quilt.
- Oh. Ahem. Ta-da!
- Aww, it's really wonderful.
Oh, look! Your birthday,
my favourite day of all.
- And my baby socks!
- Yeah. I remember
when your feet were that tiny.
- Yeah.
- Oh, and the
logo from my store.
- I did that one.
- And who did the
Rod of Asclepius?
- I did. And I had to put
up with staring at that snake
the whole time
while I sewed it on.
- Oh, and Nick's birthday.
- It's certainly one
of my favourite days.
- Oh, and this
square features our new
Middleton crest, plus a pair
of pins that you can wear as
you proudly stroll through town.
- Because wearing a quilt would
probably get you some looks.
- Oh, where is this from?
- That was
Elizabeth Merriwick's.
Grace found it in the trunk
with all her old clothes.
- But we had enough squares,
so we didn't need it for the quilt.
- And I didn't use all the
thread you gave me either,
so maybe you can use it to...
oh, well, I don't know,
repair a teeny tiny blue doily.
- Everything is beautiful.
- It was a delight
to work on it.
And it really did make so
many of our wishes come true.
- Hello? The door
was open, so...
- Melanie?! What are you
doing here?
- I wanted to surprise you!
But I didn't mean to interrupt
a party.
- No, you are not interrupting!
Everyone, this is my
friend from college, Melanie.
- Hi.
- How did you know
to come here tonight?
- What's tonight?
- It's a celebration.
I'm getting married.
- When? To who?
- Next week, to me.
- Oh.
Well then, I
couldn't have picked
a better day to get back
in touch with my old friend.
- No, you couldn't have.
Although I have a feeling
that my maid of honour
might've had something to
do with this wish coming true.
- No, it wasn't me.
I wouldn't have even known
how to make it happen.
- Oh. Well then, how?
- Don't look at me. I didn't do
anything tonight
except decorate a cake.
♪♪♪
Well, I'm not gonna worry
about how you got here,
I am just gonna celebrate
that you are.
- It's so good to see you.
- How long has it been?
- Well...
I have a son who just
got his master's degree.
- Oh! And I have a daughter
who is about to graduate
high school, Grace.
- Hi.
- Oh. She has your eyes.
Does she take after you
in the other ways too?
- She takes after me a little.
- So it's hard to walk
into a room without her
already knowing you're there?
- She used to do
that to you too?
- It drove me crazy!
But she also could find
the light in any situation
and always seemed to know
that things were going
to work out for the best,
and was there for every
single one of her friends
whenever that happened.
- She still does that too.
- Well, Melanie, you
got here just in time,
because, well, we made this
quilt for my mom and Sam,
but now you can share in
the moment when we give
the bride-to-be her
four somethings.
Mayor Tinsdale?
- Oh... yes,
about that... um...
I was so preoccupied
with finishing the quilt,
I completely forgot about
what I'd promised to do.
- So we don't have what we need?
- I'm afraid not.
- I'm not so sure
that we don't.
The handkerchief
from Elizabeth Merriwick
is something old.
And...
the pins from the crest
are something new.
- Because they're
the revised design.
- And the hairclips
are borrowed from George.
- You're welcome.
- And the thread
you used to finish
the last stitches is blue.
- The four somethings.
- So, I can
carry all of those with
me on our wedding day.
- See, Sam? That blanket
might be worth
believing in after all.

- Oh, yeah. I do. Tara
is outside waiting for me.
She has to stop
at the lab though,
which is quite a detour, but...

How long can you stay?

I'm teaching at a school there.

in to our catching up
as soon as possible.

can get started first thing.
- Good night.
Night.
Well, that turned into
one of the best parties
I've ever been to.
- I just loved seeing
you so happy.
- Yeah, and I
still can't get over
how she just kind of showed up.
- Well, if you wanna believe
that sometimes
things just happen...
- You got her here?
How?
- I did a little detective work.
I figured out the date of
her wedding, which you said
was just a week after
the two of you graduated.
And since I know the
city your college is in,
I just searched
the local records.
But she insisted
that she tell you it was
all spur-of-the-moment
because she wanted to
see the look on your face.
- Why didn't you tell me
you were just behind it all?
- Well, I planned to, but...
after listening to Grace and
everybody talk about the wishes
they made on the quilt, I...
It made me realize that...
sometimes it's good
to believe in things
that can't always be explained.

start telling me

would like to wish for?
- No.
I don't have to.

- Catherine Merriwick.
- All the brides friends get
together to sew a quilt made up
of squares that mean
something to the bride and groom.
- And they say if
you make a wish
while you're working on
it, that wish will come true.
- Well, mostly it's to emphasize
our connection to each of you

have you both in our lives.

Do they take in their
trash bins? Do they throw
loud parties? I'm thinking
about buying a place for myself.
- You're moving
out of Grey House?
- Well, Sam's moving
in after the wedding,
and I figured I should
give them some space.
It seems like the right
time to make a change,
and I never really
thought about Middleton
as a place I'd
live forever, but...
it's starting to feel like home.
- That's great! Well, when
you find a place you like, let me
know and I can tell you if the
neighbours are friendly or not.
They're all pretty friendly.

gonna want to invite me over
for backyard barbeques

brought over by the high school
drama department this morning.
Maybe there are
some purses in there.

working on that wish quilt
of yours when I realized that
I had accidentally given away
a purse that would've
gone perfectly with the dress
that I bought for your wedding.

forward to getting
together with all of you

- And it's so wonderful to see
the excitement of youth,
which is why I didn't wanna say
anything about her

about this silly 'when
you wish upon a quilt' idea.
- You don't believe in that?

with my mother and she would
always ask me what new toy
I wished for. And
then lo and behold,
it would appear like magic.
But I figured out that it was
she who was doing the shopping.
- Well, it was nice of
her, though, to make sure
you got your wishes.
- Perhaps,

get used to the realities
of life, rather than
just the fantasies
of the wide-eyed
child that I was.

wide-eyed child in all of us.

purse for your wedding, so...

pearl-coloured beads
over a silver base and...
There it is! Well...
How did the purse
that I gave away

coming in, Mrs. Kim.
Dr. Radford is trying to see
as many patients as he can
before he goes off
on his honeymoon.
- He was going to
give me a referral.
- I'll print out the
doctor's name.
Oh, this has been
happening all week. It
freezes up every time
I try and print something.
I'll write it down for you.
- Who's next?
Ah, Mr. Cassio. Come on back.
- And here you are.
- Thank you.
♪♪♪
- Hi, Risa.
- Oh, Grace! Do you know
anyone who has enough
room to take care of three dogs?
- Aww!
- I've been fostering
these guys for the
last couple of days,
and I really wanna make
sure they all end up together.
- Well, you never wanna
split up good friends.
- They're really well-behaved
and they love to play,
and the one in the middle, when
he's scratched behind the ears,
he sighs really loudly.
- Well, at least he and I have
one thing in common.
I will spread the word.
- Thanks.
- Hi.
- Hey, Grace.
- Mom! Hi, Tara.
- Hey, honey. Have
you had lunch?
- No, I was just about to.
- Tara and I were just waiting
for a table.
- Do you wanna join us?
It's on me.
- Oh! Well then, I got here
just in time.
- Oh! Cassie,
do you have any
more of that pink salt
that you sold me that's
better for Tom's heart?
- I do.
- I'm gonna need more
until we hear about
Tom's test. He went in
for a cholesterol check but
apparently, there's some sort
of backlog at the lab and I
want him to keep eating healthily
while we wait for the results.
- Here you go.
- Oh.
- Why are you
carrying pink salt
around in your purse?
- Because if I carried
it in my hands, it would
fall through my fingers.
- When's your car
supposed to be fixed?
- Oh, I don't know. Every couple
of days, my mechanic just says,
"in a couple more days."
- Well, if you need anyone
to carry any more
boxes for you...
- I will let you know.
- All right.
- Thanks.
- So, what's all this?
- Oh, these are gift baskets
from the grand opening of Oasis.
The owner gave them to
me as a thank you for catering
the event, and I wanted
to give one to each of you.
- Ooh!
- There's a gift certificate
for a free day in every one.
- Are they good any time?
- Uh-huh,
for a full day of pampering.
- Respite for a mayor's
weary bones!
- I'll take it for my bones too.
- That's quite the coincidence.
- What is?
- Well, Grace told me that
you had all wished for a day
at the spa, and you
got what you wanted.
- Yeah, I guess we did.
- Huh. Maybe that quilt
you're all working on
is already doing its job.
♪♪♪
- This is coming along so well.
- I know. My mom and
Sam are going to love it.
- What are those?
- Ooh! I had these lapel pins
made to match the
new design for the crest,
and I thought I'd pin
a couple to the quilt.
- Because the more
Middleton, the better.
- Now Grace, let me
know when you're finished
with that sashing, and I'll
have you work on the border.
- Oh, if that's the case,
then I can get started
on the border right now.
Done.
- What?
How did you finish so fast?
And every stitch is perfect...
- Oh, and look at what I found!
If we need another square,
it was in the trunk that
came from the art institute.
- With Elizabeth
Merriwick's clothes?
- It's got her
initials right here.
- Ooh!
- And I think it's
just about the right
size to be a square
on the quilt.
- We'll figure out where it fits
and then we'll sew
it on at the very end.
Oh! Excuse me.
I can't get a moment away. Ah.
Yes, Jared?
Tonight? No, no.
I can't do tonight.
Definitely can't do tonight.
Well, I don't know! They're just
gonna have to play three-handed.
Honestly! You'd think that
not having a fourth for pinochle
was the end of the world, as if they
can't get by one week without me.
- I could sit in if they
need to fill another seat.
- You play pinochle?
- No, but...
I wanna meet new people
and how hard can it be?
- The game has taken
me a lifetime to master.
- Ooh, that long?
Just tell them I'll be there.
- Fine, but these women
take their card-playing
very seriously, so...
- I will make sure I look
very serious when I show up.
- Hide the quilt, ladies!
The bride-to-be is here.
- Ooh, Cassie! Come on in.
- No, no! It's OK! I was
just dropping Stephanie off
and I don't wanna see
anything until it's finished.
- We can keep it out of sight!
- Well, OK.
- Cassie and I were just
discussing when we can get
to Oasis to use
our gift certificates.
And I have one for you too.
- Thank you! I heard you got
a bunch of free days there.
- It's kind of like
what we all wished for.
- As if one thing had
anything to do with the other.
- Well, you did get
your purse back too.
- I suppose I did.
- What would you wish for, Tara,
if there was something
you always wanted?
- Well, remember after I got
my master's and I was gonna
go for my PhD?
- At Cambridge.
- I was doing lab work at
the school and really liking it
and... I kind of wish
I could do it again.
- And what about you, Martha?
- Oh, I'd wish for what every
mayor wants, just one day
without people wanting so many
moments of my time so I could
finish the quilt and get
ready for your wedding.
- You know what I'd wish for?
I'd wish for Risa
to find a place
for those dogs. I don't want
them to have to get split up
and worry about where
the other ones went.
- Well, I would wish
for a personal chauffeur
so that my friends didn't have
to drive me around everywhere.
Oh, and three more wishes.
But I guess I would've
had to wish for that first.
- And you, Abigail?
- That three more wishes thing
sounds like the right way to go.
- But after that?
- I don't know. Maybe...
I don't know.
- Well, when you
decide on something,
let me know if it
ever comes true.
- Cassie?
- It was really good to see you.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, I was just in
the neighbourhood and wanted
to say hi to one of my customers.
- I didn't think your customers
ever needed places like this.
- There are a few who
don't do exactly as I say.
- Hmm.
- Hi, Cassie!
Sam. Oops! I guess I should
call you Dr. Radford
when we're at work.
- When did you get
a job at the hospital?
- This is my first day. The
lab called last night and said
they'd been behind with
test results and would I be
interested in helping
as an assistant.
- I didn't know you applied.
- Oh, they had my resume
from a few years ago and I
don't know, it somehow ended up
at the top of the stack. Maybe
what they said about that quilt
really is true.
- Mm-hmm.
- What?
- I saw you talking
to that hospital administrator
who does the hiring for the lab.
- Oh, is she the one that
handles that sort of thing?
- Are you the one that told her
Tara would be good for the job?
- I don't know the details
of hospital hiring practices.
- Don't you?
- Mm-mm. Sometimes things
just happen, Sam.
- As if by magic.
- If you say so.
- Hi, Abigail.
- Hello, Grace.
- I brought you something.
It's the official invitation
to my mom's party
tomorrow night.
- I wouldn't miss it.
- I know how excited she is
to see the quilt. And to
hear if our wishes came true.
- I might be sitting that part
of the conversation
out. Wishes and I
don't have a great
history together.
- Abigail...
What you wrote
in that birthday book
was a long time ago.
- And I've regretted Shaun
McLachlan my whole life.
- But if you were to wish for
something, what would it be?
- Can I just go with an overall
something other than a guy?
- You can go with
whatever you want.
- Because I guess what I
want the most right now is to...
I don't know.
Settle in. Meet people who feel
the same way about
Middleton that I do.
People who look at this
place like it's their home
and actually wanna stay here.
- There are plenty
of people like that!
- Well, I can't just sit
around and wait for them
to walk through my door.
- Liam!
- Oh. Hey, Grace. Hi.
- Hey. Can I help you?
- Yeah, I wanna get
some flowers and maybe some
chocolates for my neighbours.
- They're having me over
for dinner tonight and they've
really made me feel welcome,
which is just another reason
I love living here.
- Middleton's a really
nice place, isn't it?
- Yeah.
I don't know why anyone
would ever wanna leave.
- Hmm.
- I don't recognize half
the things on that shelf.
- This is where they keep the
organic and all-natural foods.
- Well, that explains it.
- Oh, would you look at that?
Even before they're married,
they're already shopping
together, putting all
of Middleton's other
couples to shame.
- Well, that's our goal.
- What are you two doing here
this time of night?
- I had to make an appearance at
a neighbourhood watch meeting,
and Jared wants something
to raise his blood sugar before
he drives me back to City Hall.
- I feel I need to
be at my most alert
when transporting
such precious cargo.
- Now, no dawdling. I have
wall-to-wall meetings tomorrow
that I need to prepare for,
which is barely leaving me
any time to help get
things ready for your party
like I promised your
daughter I would.
- Well then, I hope you find
those few extra moments
that you need.
- Oh. Is that me?
- No. Mine.
Oh! Looks like your morning
meeting got canceled.
- Well, that's a
bit of good news!
Oh!
And the one after that
needs to reschedule
'til next week.
- Fine by me.
And the city manager
needs to push tomorrow's
working lunch 'til some day
next month, and he
also wants you to know
that the Sanitation Department
doesn't need to get together
until Tuesday.
- Wait.
Does that mean that suddenly,
tomorrow is completely clear?
- You have the
entire day to yourself!
- Well, that's like
a wish come true!
In fact, that's exactly
what I wished for on that quilt.
- Really?
- Oh, come on! Let's get you
fueled up so I can get home
and start my day of freedom
as early as tonight!
- Yes, Madam Mayor.
- Well... that was nice of you.
- What'd I do?
- I'm not quite sure.
- Hmm.
- I'm watching you, Nightingale.
- You let me know what you see.
- Oh, I will.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh! Is that the same kind of
a cake that Stephanie brought
to my surprise party?
- I knew it was your favourite.
- It's really good.
- Oh. You seem happy.
- Hi.
- That's 'cause Risa found
a place for these dogs!
Somebody saw the flyer,
said they had the perfect home
for them with plenty
of room to play,
and they can all stay together.
- Well, that's great to hear.
- I'm gonna go get a coffee.
- OK.
- Well... and the
list keeps growing.
- Uh, what are we
keeping a list about?
- Something tells
me that your daughter
mixed in a little wish-making
with her quilt-sewing,
and that you had something
to do with making it come true.
- Well, I don't know
how I could've done that.
- You're not saying you didn't.
- I don't think
I'm saying anything.
- Why don't you?!
Why don't you tell people
what's going on, so they know
these things don't just happen?
- There's nothing wrong
with letting people see that
there's magic in the world.
- Agh.
- Hey, you two.
- Hi.
- So I hear that you're
not having a bachelor party?
- Nope. Sorry.
- Come on! I was looking
forward to, you know,
hanging out with the guys.
- You might still get a chance
to hang out with the guys.
- Yeah, but not with Sam
as the centre of attention.
- That! Me being the
centre of attention,
that's enough reason
for me to not want to go.
- All right, I get
it. See you later.
- See you.
How do you think
Stephanie makes this?
- Maybe one day, she'll
let you in on her secrets.
♪♪♪
Liam.
Hi.
- Hi, Abigail.
Um, do you have a second?
I have something I need
to talk to you about.
- With me?
- Well, you're the one
I came here to see.
Heh. OK.
- Oh, Abigail! I'm
glad I caught you.
- Margaret. Liam, this is
one of the women I played
pinochle with last night.
- Playing pinochle now?
- Yes, and she plays like a
pro, which is why the ladies and I
voted you into our regular
rotation starting next week.
- Isn't that Martha's seat?
- Oh, please! That woman
doesn't know a jump bid
from a non-trump run, but you
seem like you've been playing
the game your whole life.
- I enjoy it, that's all.
- So, you'll join us?
- Sure, sign me up.
- Wonderful! It was
nice meeting you.
- You too.
So...
I'm sorry.
Abigail's.
Yes, we do. How many?
And it's for pick-up?
4 o'clock. Sure.
Thanks.
Sorry.
- You know,
I can catch you later
if you're busy. It's...
No, it's OK! Just...
Abigail's. Hold please.
Now, we have all
the time you need.
- Um...
You know what?
This is probably something
I should talk to you about
in private anyway, so...
maybe another time?
- Sure.
- OK. I'll see you later.
- Oh, how's Mr. Borma doing?
- Well, but could you
print out a full listing
of his medications? He wants
to make sure that everything
is up to date. Oh, that's right.
You're having printer problems.
- Oh, not anymore.
- How'd you get it working?
- Mr. Cassio came in for
a follow-up appointment
and worked some sort of magic
while he was waiting to see you.
- So, that's good then.
- It's sort of like a wish
come true. Oh, before I forget,
Liam called, and he
let me make sure
I get this right...
He wants you to meet him
at your house at 7PM
so he can escort you to an
event that Cassie has planned
marking your transition
into married life.
- That sounds like
a bachelor party.
- He told me to tell you
it wasn't a bachelor party.
See?
- I guess I can do that.
- Do you want me to put this
into the computer
and print it out for you?
- No, I think I can remember.
- I'm gonna do it anyway,
just so I can see it
say "now printing."
- Whatever makes you happy.
♪♪♪
Where are you taking me?
- Not too far.
And we're here.
- Cassie wanted you to
bring me to Grey House?
Why?
- All I'm doing
is following orders. Let me
know if you have a good time.
- What, you're
not coming inside?
- No, I've got
somewhere else to be.
- Somewhere else?
- She said just to go right in.
- There he is!
- Hey!
- You made it!
- I did,
but I'm not sure
I'm in the right place.
- Oh, you're in the right place.
- Yeah. This is your party.
- My... what?
- My mom thought that you
would like things better this way.
- So... this is my
bachelor party?
- Oh, no. Of course not. Everybody
knew that you didn't want one of those.
- But Cassie thought you
wouldn't mind hanging out
with us.
- We thought that we could watch
a movie, maybe play a game.
- And Cassie also suggested
that I teach you to bake a cake.
- Oh, we're...
going to bake a cake?
- It's the one you really like.
- Yellow cake with
chocolate frosting?
- Yes. I got everything we need.
- Well, this is turning into
a party I could learn to love.
- Well, before things get
too messy in the kitchen,
we have something
special just for tonight.
I hope you like it, because
there's one for all of us too.
- Well, now it is a party.
- All right, let's get started.
You can crack the eggs
over there and I'll sift the flour.
- I'm on it.
- I don't suppose the guys
are wearing aprons with
Cassie's face on it at their party?
- I doubt it, no.
- Oh, the guys are
having a party? Where?
- Nice. Maybe we should team up.
- Although I guess we can't
play boys against the girls.
- How about...
whoever can sink a
run to the 8 ball wins.
- You sound like you've
played this game before.
- I might've spent some
time in a hall or two.
What's a run?
- It's all of the solids
or all of the stripes.
- Should we put
a little bet on it?
- Sure. How about... a
month's worth of car washes?
- That's hardly a bet.
- OK, then.
Let's make it a year.
- Oh!
- And now it's a bet.
- Who goes first?
- It should probably
be ladies first.
- Such a gentleman! OK.
- Here you go.
- Thank you. All right.
What am I aiming at?
- If you wanna go for the
solids, start with the 1 ball.
- OK, the 1 ball.
- That's the yellow one.
Right there.
- OK. And what happens
if I make it?
- Then you go for 2 through 8.
- Sounds simple enough.
- It's not quite so simple.
- Isn't it?

- So, when can we eat it?!
- Well, as soon as it cools.

until then?

- Hi, Martha. Grab an apron.
I don't know if there are any
more with my face on them...
- Oh... my.
I'm so sorry, I don't
have time to participate.
Grace, I need some
more of that thread
that your mother gave
me for the quilt. I ran out
with just a few stitches to go.
- Well, she keeps all of that
in here. Uh, what colour?
- Oh, I'll take
whatever you have.
- Well... Here.
- Oh, thank goodness.
- I'll be back as soon as I'm
finished, and then we can make
the presentation.
- I can't wait for Sam
and Cassie to see it!
- I know, I know! So I
better work fast.
- I don't think I've ever
heard myself say this,
but I'm really looking
forward to seeing a quilt.
- It really is nice.
- And what they say about it
making dreams come
true might actually be true.
- And you really believe that
there's magic in a blanket?
- Maybe.
- Come on.
- I wanted to work in a lab
for years, but I never actually
said it out loud. And then I
did say it and the next day,
I had a job.
- Martha got her day off.
- My printer started working.
- And there are three dogs
that have a brand-new home.
- And you think that's because
of the wishes you made?
- Well... what's
so wrong if we do?
- You are actually
really good at this.
- All it takes is a smooth hand,
like bisecting a
tricuspid valve.
- That medical degree's
finally good for something.
- So, this is where
the party's at.
- Cassie! And... everybody.
Where have you all been?
- At your bachelor party.
- And we had a great time.
- Yeah. The only thing
missing was the actual bachelor.
- Although it looks
like you guys had fun.
- We did. I... did.
- I was hoping
you'd be here tonight.
- Well, I'm a bachelorette.
- So can we maybe finally talk?
- Um, sure.
- Great. How about...
- Oh, good! Everyone's here.
Tom, do you have
the frame for the quilt
in the back of your car?
- I do. I can set it up.
- Let me give you a hand.
- Good. Now, someone's gonna
have to clear away
all this furniture.
The quilt is gonna
look wonderful.
We can display it right here,
in the centre of the room,
using the wooden clips
that I...
forgot at home.
- Well, is that a problem?
- It's a huge problem!
We need something to
clip the quilt to the frame,
and now we have nothing!
- Would some old-fashioned
hair clips do the job?
- Hair clips?
- Well, they did a great job
attaching a curtain to a rod.
Maybe they'd do the same thing
for the quilt and whatever
you attach a quilt to.
- Well, I suppose
they'll just have to do.
- There's some in the kitchen.
- So, um... how was your
what do I call it...
Bachelor party?
- It was fun. We hung out at the
microbrewery, played some pool.
- I didn't know you played pool.
- Oh, a little bit.
- Huh. I'll have to challenge
you to a game sometime.
- I'm always up for a
little friendly competition.
- So, what did you
wanna talk about?
- Well...
I've been living
here for a while now,
and I've really started to
consider Middleton my home.
- Me too.
- And... that got me
thinking about all the people
I've gotten to know here.
- Uh-huh.
- So, I was
wondering if you think
Stephanie would
wanna go out with me?
- You and Stephanie?
- Yeah. Well, you
know her so well, and I...
I don't know why I'm
being so high school
about this. I just...
I was wondering
if you thought that she might,
or if we might...
I wanted to know what
you thought first. That's all.
- Let me tell you
something about Stephanie.
She's a great friend,
a great person. One of
the best I know, actually.
And I think the two of you
would be fantastic together.
- Really?
- I never say
things I don't mean.
Well, unless it's for
a legitimate purpose.
But I meant every word of that.
- Then that's good to hear.
So, I guess we better
get back to the party.
- Yeah, we probably should.
- Well, those work just fine!
- I'm gonna want these
back when we're done.
I've grown as attached to them
as they were to the curtain rod.
- Grace, as maid of honour,
it's your job to present
the bride with her quilt.
- Oh. Ahem. Ta-da!
- Aww, it's really wonderful.
Oh, look! Your birthday,
my favourite day of all.
- And my baby socks!
- Yeah. I remember
when your feet were that tiny.
- Yeah.
- Oh, and the
logo from my store.
- I did that one.
- And who did the
Rod of Asclepius?
- I did. And I had to put
up with staring at that snake
the whole time
while I sewed it on.
- Oh, and Nick's birthday.
- It's certainly one
of my favourite days.
- Oh, and this
square features our new
Middleton crest, plus a pair
of pins that you can wear as
you proudly stroll through town.
- Because wearing a quilt would
probably get you some looks.
- Oh, where is this from?
- That was
Elizabeth Merriwick's.
Grace found it in the trunk
with all her old clothes.
- But we had enough squares,
so we didn't need it for the quilt.
- And I didn't use all the
thread you gave me either,
so maybe you can use it to...
oh, well, I don't know,
repair a teeny tiny blue doily.
- Everything is beautiful.
- It was a delight
to work on it.
And it really did make so
many of our wishes come true.
- Hello? The door
was open, so...
- Melanie?! What are you
doing here?
- I wanted to surprise you!
But I didn't mean to interrupt
a party.
- No, you are not interrupting!
Everyone, this is my
friend from college, Melanie.
- Hi.
- How did you know
to come here tonight?
- What's tonight?
- It's a celebration.
I'm getting married.
- When? To who?
- Next week, to me.
- Oh.
Well then, I
couldn't have picked
a better day to get back
in touch with my old friend.
- No, you couldn't have.
Although I have a feeling
that my maid of honour
might've had something to
do with this wish coming true.
- No, it wasn't me.
I wouldn't have even known
how to make it happen.
- Oh. Well then, how?
- Don't look at me. I didn't do
anything tonight
except decorate a cake.
♪♪♪
Well, I'm not gonna worry
about how you got here,
I am just gonna celebrate
that you are.
- It's so good to see you.
- How long has it been?
- Well...
I have a son who just
got his master's degree.
- Oh! And I have a daughter
who is about to graduate
high school, Grace.
- Hi.
- Oh. She has your eyes.
Does she take after you
in the other ways too?
- She takes after me a little.
- So it's hard to walk
into a room without her
already knowing you're there?
- She used to do
that to you too?
- It drove me crazy!
But she also could find
the light in any situation
and always seemed to know
that things were going
to work out for the best,
and was there for every
single one of her friends
whenever that happened.
- She still does that too.
- Well, Melanie, you
got here just in time,
because, well, we made this
quilt for my mom and Sam,
but now you can share in
the moment when we give
the bride-to-be her
four somethings.
Mayor Tinsdale?
- Oh... yes,
about that... um...
I was so preoccupied
with finishing the quilt,
I completely forgot about
what I'd promised to do.
- So we don't have what we need?
- I'm afraid not.
- I'm not so sure
that we don't.
The handkerchief
from Elizabeth Merriwick
is something old.
And...
the pins from the crest
are something new.
- Because they're
the revised design.
- And the hairclips
are borrowed from George.
- You're welcome.
- And the thread
you used to finish
the last stitches is blue.
- The four somethings.
- So, I can
carry all of those with
me on our wedding day.
- See, Sam? That blanket
might be worth
believing in after all.

- Oh, Abigail!
I heard from Margaret that
you made quite the impression
at the pinochle table.
- I managed to meld
a few rounds.
- They told me you're sitting
in for me for a few weeks.
- They invited me.
- Well, you're making the
kind of friends in Middleton
that will last you
well into your old age.
- Well, I mean, that's a
very long time from now.
- Oh, sure. Rub it in.
- Do you have a ride home?
- Oh, yeah. I do. Tara
is outside waiting for me.
She has to stop
at the lab though,
which is quite a detour, but...
- Well, I could take you
straight home, if you'd rather.
- Are you sure?
- Of course.
I'd be happy to be
your personal chauffeur.
Your chariot awaits.
- Thank you.

- I can't believe you
just showed up here
tonight with so much going on.
- You're the one who always said
that things happen right
when they're supposed to.
- Well, I'm glad you
happened tonight.
How long can you stay?
- Oh, just 'til tomorrow.
I have to get back to Cambodia.
I'm teaching at a school there.
- Still making the world
a better place, are you?
- My guess is you are too.
- Hmm.
- Wow! A man who
helps with the dishes.
- He also decorates
a pretty good cake.
- Now, I'm even more jealous.
- Well, it's really good to meet
another one of Cassie's friends.
- I'm just so glad I
could get here tonight.
But I'm gonna get to bed,
because I want to dive
in to our catching up
as soon as possible.
- I'll be up with the sun, so we
can get started first thing.
- Good night.
Night.
Well, that turned into
one of the best parties
I've ever been to.
- I just loved seeing
you so happy.
- Yeah, and I
still can't get over
how she just kind of showed up.
- Well, if you wanna believe
that sometimes
things just happen...
- You got her here?
How?
- I did a little detective work.
I figured out the date of
her wedding, which you said
was just a week after
the two of you graduated.
And since I know the
city your college is in,
I just searched
the local records.
But she insisted
that she tell you it was
all spur-of-the-moment
because she wanted to
see the look on your face.
- Why didn't you tell me
you were just behind it all?
- Well, I planned to, but...
after listening to Grace and
everybody talk about the wishes
they made on the quilt, I...
It made me realize that...
sometimes it's good
to believe in things
that can't always be explained.
- You ever gonna
start telling me
any of the things you
would like to wish for?
- No.
I don't have to.
My wish already came true.
