Good Witch (2015–…): Season 5, Episode 9 - The Comet - full transcript

A wish-granting comet heads to Middleton, adding even more anticipation to the exciting graduation season in 'The Comet.' As the rest of the town thinks of their one wish, Cassie (Catherine Bell) just wants the best for Sam (James Denton) when he is offered a dream job across the country after successfully performing a tricky surgery. Grace (Bailee Madison) prepares for her valedictorian speech, while Nick (Rhys Matthew Bond) becomes unexpectedly nostalgic as high school wraps up. Abigail (Sarah Power) plans a trip to Europe to forget about her breakup with Donovan (Marc Bendavid), while Donovan tries to disprove the power of curses and win her back. Meanwhile, Martha (Catherine Disher) struggles to make amends with her nemesis, and Stephanie (Kylee Evans) and Adam (Scott Cavalheiro) are overwhelmed when their food truck is an instant sensation.

- Previously on Good Witch.
- The Bistro food truck is

officially open for business.
We make a good team.

- We do.

- Donovan was in a
motorcycle accident.

- Stay away before
something happens

you can't forgive yourself for.
- Maybe your mother's right.

- About the curse?
- I'm the last thing you need.

- Don't cheat them out
of their happiness the way

you cheated me out of
my homecoming glory.

- According to my
yearbook, I wanted to make

a great discovery.
Seems like a lot of people



are making discoveries.
- It's never too late.

- Subtle.
- I thought so.

♪♪

- Only four more
days of high school left;

how does it feel?
- My life is about

to completely change.

- All our lives are
about to change.

- OK, what is happening?
- I'm documenting

everything about Pozner's comet.

- I found this etching
of the comet in the attic.

It was mixed in with this
box of things you made for me

when you were little. We
didn't have cameras back then,

so this is how they
captured history.

- I prefer modern technology.
- This commemorates the night



200 years ago best friends

Victoria Merriwick
and Charlotte Pozner

went up to the highest
point in Middleton to chart

the constellations.

They saw a shooting
star and Victoria

made a wish that the star

turned out to be a comet.

And since they
were the first to see it,

they got to name it.

- Why isn't it the
Merriwick Comet?

- Because Victoria's
wish came true,

so Charlotte got to
choose the name.

- Wait. So Charlotte's
wish didn't come true?

- According to the
legend, everyone gets

to make a wish, but not
all of them get granted.

- So choose carefully,

you won't get another
chance for a hundred years.

- No pressure.
- Well, taking finals

was pressure; this
is a piece of cake.

- Well, you two
made it look easy.

- We're incredibly
proud of both of you.

- Hmm... It's hard to believe
those were the last tests

we'll ever take
at Middleton High.

- You're getting
nostalgic over tests?

- She's getting nostalgic
over being finished

with high school. (soft music)

- Tell me more about the comet.

- Hmm! Well, I can tell you
more about making a wish.

Your wish will only come true
if you make it while watching

the comet from the
Middleton Observatory.

It was built on the same spot

where Victoria
Merriwick made her wish.

- Mhm.

- Well, I better start
thinking about mine.

- Think carefully.

♪♪

- "Don't walk, run.
Their Monte Cristo

"will make you rethink
everything you ever knew

about sandwiches
and maple syrup."

- Ah, check us out.
That was a good review.

- That was a "we better
stock up on the extra 'fixins'

for the Monte Cristo review."

- "Fixins"?
- Yeah. It's a word I chose

and I'm gonna stand by it.
- Ha ha!

I love your
enthusiasm, but you are

new to the food game.
Of course, if I used

my comet wish I
could practically

guarantee our success.
- Mm-hmm, worth a shot.

- No wait, I would
much rather wish

for a 50-carat diamond
necklace. (Adam chuckling)

Well, if you're
gonna wish, wish big.

- I agree. And with this
review for the Monte Cristo,

we're probably covered.
From what I can tell,

Lisa Gold's blog can
make or break a food truck.

- Hmm... Yeah, a good review

from Lisa definitely can,
but we are brand new,

so you never know.
- I guess we'll find out.

- Mm-hmm?
- Mm-hmm.

(soft music)

- (amused): Hmm.

(sighing)

(Sam chuckling)
- You look good in macaroni.

- It's what all the cool
moms are wearing.

(both chuckling) Aaah...

Tony the Turkey! Grace
made me this in kindergarten.

- Nick made me that
very same turkey.

(sighing)
- Seems like yesterday.

- More like 18 exhausting
years. (Cassie laughing)

(Cassie sighing)

- Oh, my gosh!

Grace's first masterpiece.

I had this on the
fridge forever!

- Know what this is, don't you?
- Yeah, it's

a sunset over Grey House.

- Or...

it's you realizing Grace and
Nick are going off to college.

(sighing)
- I'm excited.

Grace and Nick

are about to head
down an amazing road.

- OK.

- What?
- I don't know.

It just feels like
there's something else.

(sighing)
- There is.

I'm wondering what
you look like in macaroni.

(Sam chuckling) Hmmm... perfect!

- (Martha): A cup of
your strongest joe, stat!

- Rough morning?
- Fruitless morning.

I have tried this key
in every lock in town.

The whereabouts of
the Middleton treasure

remain a mystery.
- In your Founders Day speech,

you did say the real riches are
what we gain from the search.

- All I've gained are two
blisters and a bit of a sunburn.

And I worked up
quite an appetite.

I read about your delectable
Monte Cristo sandwiches.

I'll try one of those.
- Um, sorry, Martha,

those are food
trucks items only.

- I just wish this
day would end.

Oh no, wait! I take that
back. I don't want to waste

my comet wish. It could be

the key to finding the
treasure. (women chuckling)

(gasping) ♪♪

Oh, I truly hope

I'm hallucinating from hunger.

Well... this is

a surprise.

- Hello, Martha!
- Is that all you have to say?

- Nice to see you, Martha.
- Is it?

Do you think your wife
would approve of this...

- Brunch?

- Well, that's what
you want to call it.

- I call it two friends
getting together to catch up.

The 30-plus year rivalry
between you and Dottie

has no bearing on it.
- Obviously.

I'll see you at home.

(whimsical music) Davis.

(gentle music)

- Aaaah...

- Something tells me you're
not interested in a breakfast bar.

- If you have any
emotion-numbing tea, I'd take

a to-go cup.
- At least, you still haven't

lost your sense of humour.
- No, just my boyfriend

over an ancient curse
from a jilted landowner.

"The Stars in their Hearts."

- I read it last month.

- I was going to donate it to
the library unless you want

to borrow it.
- Do you? It's sort of heavy.

- "The ultimate
romantic tearjerker."

(cell phone ringing) Yep,
definitely not my speed.

- Hello?

- It's not emotion numbing,
but it is a lovely camomile.

- Thank you.

- Seriously?

Uh, that's... that's
great. Thank you.

That was my guidance counselor.
My final grades just came in.

- And...?
- I'm valedictorian.

- It's so amazing, I'm not
even taking the mitt off.

- (both): Aaah!
- Wow!

- You're not thrilled...
- I am thrilled,

it's just now I have to write
my commencement speech.

- About the future?
- Wish I had a crystal ball.

- That would take
all the fun out of it.

There you go.
- Oh, thank you,

but I'm not really hungry.
- Yeah, but Luke is

and he's here.
(cell phone beeping)

By the way, the
observatory asked if we had

anything to commemorate
our family's connection

to the comet, and I said I
would loan them the etching.

Would you and Luke
mind dropping it off?

- No problem. Mwah.

Morning.
- Hey.

- Grace just found out
she's a valedictorian.

- Aha! That's great!
And not surprising.

- Hope I didn't miss breakfast.
- Oh no,

I saved you some. Right on the
table. This is my husband Sam.

- Ah, Doug Langfus.
- You check in last night?

- Yeah, I got the best
night's sleep I've had all week.

- Doug was at a cardiology
symposium in Chicago?

- Chairman, Westbridge Hospital.
- Well, I don't envy you.

I used to be chief of
surgery at New York General.

- Sam Radford?
- Mm-hmm.

- Now, he's chief of
staff at Hillcrest Hospital.

- And enjoying a more
quiet life here in Middleton.

- And definitely a nice
place to decompress.

- Hmm! It is that. I'll
be back in a while.

- Nice to meet you.
- Yeah.

♪♪

- Martha!
- Ohhh!

Well, I presume these mean

that you're not going to
see Davis Donovan anymore.

- Actually, we're both
going to see Davis.

And Dottie too.
- Oh, Tom, what on earth for?

- Lunch. It's time
you and Dottie buried

the hatchet once and for all.
- Just because you and Davis

are all chummy doesn't mean

that Dottie and I are
suddenly gonna become BFFs.

- You've got to
let this go, Martha.

- I'm not the one
holding onto it.

♪♪

- I can't believe it
snowed up here.

- This place is so cool!
- Yeah. I love it.

Every year in elementary school,

we used to come
here on field trips.

- I bet you were the kid that
asked the most questions.

- I may have challenged
a few tour guides.

- I may have too.
(Grace chuckling)

So, where do you
think they'll display it?

- Uh, probably right here,
so everyone can see it when

they walk up to the gallery.
- With the plaque

just says "On loan from
the Merriwick collection"?

- I like how your mind works.
- I like how your mind works.

- I wish we would
have met sooner.

- We still have our
wishes on the comet.

to wish that we could

just go back in time? ♪♪

Luke...

Look, I...

I tried the long distance thing.

Just it doesn't really work.

- So, we're pretty much
over before we really started.

- We'll always have
the skating rink.

ball, I'm gonna think of you.

- Good.

Mayor Davenport?

I'm well aware that
my agenda isn't exactly

a page turner, but
perhaps you could turn

- I'm sorry. I've got a lot

on my mind.
- I did hear something about you

and Abigail. I assume
the breakup was mutual?

- Back to the water main.
- Oh, I simply shudder to think

that your happiness was
ended by that curse. That was

what ended it, wasn't it?
- I don't believe in curses.

- Well, that makes
two of you. Or does it?

- Let's reschedule this meeting.

- Of course, the
motorcycle accident.

And I know that curses
can be tough to talk about.

- (softly): Doesn't
seem to be stopping you.

- Well, I happen to know a
thing or two about this one.

- And why is that?
- I am extremely well versed

in all things Middleton,
especially town lore.

- In that case...

how do we break this curse?

to our birdhouse?

- Same thing that
happened to me: it got old.

You know, you were
6 when we built that?

- Mm-hmm. I remember
the day Breezy moved in.

- Don't see many
aqua-coloured birds.

- Especially ones with brown
wings and an orange beak.

- Yeah, he was a handsome fella.
- Hmm, although,

not the tidiest tenant.

Trying to work out this melody.
There's something missing.

(both playing guitar)

- What about that?
- It's not bad.

(both laughing)
- From not bad to pretty good.

- I'd be ready to
take it on the road.

- I'm more of a solo
act. I just play to relax.

- It should be required
when you work in a hospital.

- It should be required
when you perform surgery.

- Listening to music in the OR
keeps a lot of surgeons happy.

- It keeps the
patients happy too.

call it an occasion.
More like an invasion.

sound pleasant.

- What would you do if
you had to attend a lunch,

against your better judgement,

with someone who wronged
you over many years?

on the person who wronged you;

just focus on the
person you want to be.

Lemongrass and jasmine.
- Ohhh...

Just makes you feel calm.

- Perfect gift for Dottie.

- Did I mention
this was for Dottie?

Well, I suppose I can put on
my best, most polite poker face,

but if my history with Dottie

tells us anything, this
lunch will solve nothing.

- You're right, it won't...

should toss a coin in the well.

You know what it did for Tom

didn't do for us. We tossed

a coin in the well and then
Donovan crashed his motorcycle.

I want to put this delicately,

did you do it in

you can be just
a tad... sarcastic.

sneeze at. (laughing)

Did you know a comet
is basically ice and gas?

- I, uh, I didn't know that.

- Grandpa knows
a lot about space.

- Come on, let's hurry,
get this telescope set up.

- Let's do it. I've got
my wish ready to go.

- Hi!
- Hi!

Hey, hello!
- Hey.

- Hello, hello.
- Wow! Would you look at us

out together.
- We're a happening couple.

- More an exhausted couple.
- Um, but you're here!

- Hey, you two.

- Cassie told me
your grill broke down.

- Kind of a blessing.
- Hmm...

- It's better than a curse.
- Oh, please,

let's not talk about
curses tonight.

- Hello, Martha, Tom.
- Is everyone as ready

for this comet as I am?
- Astronomy is Tom's hobby.

- It'll be getting dark soon,
we should probably get outside.

- (Stephanie): Yes.
- Oh.

- Bet you Martha's wish is
to see what that key unlocks.

- I'd kind of like
to know myself.

- Do you guys know what
you're gonna wish for?

- Sometimes, our wishes
are best left unspoken.

- So that covers the
alarm, Monday's shipment,

the Bonberry wedding...

And we should probably
go over payroll later

since I don't know how
long I'm gonna be in Europe.

- Europe?

I'm almost jealous.
- Dottie.

- It'll be just the thing to
get you back up on your feet.

- Well, I'm on my feet
right now, but thank you.

I'm guessing you're
not here for flowers.

- I'm here

to offer my gratitude.

I know how you
feel about my son,

it must have been
hard to walk away.

- I didn't want to
see him get hurt.

- Curses are tricky
business. I appreciate

you making the sacrifice;
it was the right thing.

For everyone.
- It was the right thing

for me and Donovan. ♪♪

- What's important
is you did it.

Enjoy your trip.

I'm certain the right
man is out there.

- Always a pleasure, Dottie.

- Kind of cold here. How about
I go get us some hot chocolate?

- Sounds great.
- Be right back.

- OK.

Hello, Doug. Ha ha!
- Any sign of the comet?

- Ah, not yet.

You know, it's amazing how
drawn we are to fleeting things.

We wanna capture
them because we think

that they may never
come along again.

- If you're talking about
the offer to Sam, you're right.

Talent like his doesn't
come along very often,

I had to jump at it.
- I'd have done the same thing.

- You'd support
him in taking the job?

- I support whatever
is meant to be.

(both chuckling)
- Has anyone ever told you

you're a hard woman to read?
- Uh, once or twice, yeah.

(both laughing)

- Have you figured out what
you're gonna wish for yet?

- I have an idea.

How about you?
- I've got an idea.

I've ever seen you speechless.

- Oh, shush, don't ruin it.
- That didn't last long.

- Thanks.

Are you making a wish?

- I thought our wishes
were best left unspoken.

(Cassie chuckling)
- I'm so happy we came up here.

- But, Sam, this
observatory was built

ages after the treasure
was buried. The lock couldn't

possibly be here.
- Well, maybe

there never was a lock.
- Whatever do you mean?

- The key is the key.

- Oh, wonderful. Now,
you're talking in riddles just like

your wife.
- Well, maybe this will help.

- This is what I
call a treasure hunt.

- The key is an arrow
pointing to the next clue.

- That's the old meeting house.

- That was demolished years ago.

(sighing) Just another dead-end?

always come home.

- Aww.

You ready to go?
- Yes.

- OK. You're sure you
still want to do this?

- I need to do this.
- I wonder what Martha wants.

(cell phone beeping)

some paperwork, tie up loose ends.

- Abigail?! You got here fast.

You don't give up, do you?

- Someday, you'll thank me.

- I don't know what
plan you two hatched,

but I don't have time, I
have to go to the airport.

What are you doing?
- What's wrong?

Is it bad luck if I
open this indoors?

Or if walk under this?
- Please stop.

- Not 'til I crack... this.

- I get that you're inviting
bad luck into your life;

what I don't get is why.

- Maybe I'm trying to show you
I don't believe in superstitions.

- Clearly.
- But I do believe

when you came into my
life that it was... good luck.

(gentle music)

- That's sweet, but
there are forces out there

that can't be explained.
- How do you explain us?

- Over.

- Even after I invited

7000 years of bad
luck on myself?

- I didn't ask you to do that.
- That's what you do

when something's
worth believing in.

So what do you say?

♪♪

- I guess we'll have
bad luck together.

Call me later, OK?

Bye.

Keinzer just gave Luke a
full academic scholarship.

- Wow! I always thought
he was a smart kid.

Ha ha! OK, it's time to
put down the camera.

- Yeah, OK? The comet is gone.

moment. Your wish came true.

Luke got a full ride to Keinzer.

that was my wish?

- Magic.

(electric buzzing)

- I love that you're
making memories.

If I were leaving Middleton,
I'd want to take it with me too.

- Yeah, I'm gonna miss it.

Thanks, Cassie.
- For what?

- For everything. You've
done a lot for me and my dad.

- Well, you and your dad
have done a lot for me too.

- Isn't that what family is for?

- (Nick and Cassie):
Definitely. (chuckling)

he was gonna get a scholarship.

- Hmm.
- But actually,

that wasn't my wish.
- I promise not to tell

Abigail and Donovan
what you really wished for.

- They're back together?

- Just like when
Victoria Merriwick made

that first wish on the
comet, she hoped her sister

would find true love.
And like Victoria,

you wished unselfishly -
And that's the real secret

to making wishes come true.

Doug tell you we talked
at the observatory?

He, uh... he also said

would have been
me turning it down.

- Hmm...

My wish was for you to do
what would make you happy.

Of course I'm
not taking that job.

What makes me happy
