Good Witch (2015) s04e06 Episode Script

- Previously on Good Witch - Well, I don't think I've ever seen Grace not prepared for anything.
- Why do you do it? - This kind of stuff looks good - on college applications.
- What is it you love? There's been a lot of talk of romance lately, but it got me thinking if I'm ever gonna find someone I wanna be with forever.
- I'm sure you will.
- Maybe.
Maybe not.
They say that some couples can't work together, but I knew it would be different with you two.
Oh, it doesn't really matter who's the boss, does it? Wait, you're the boss now? All I know is that we work well together.
OK.
I'll talk to Abigail about the flowers and you can figure out who's - working with you on decorations.
- I'm gonna need a lot of help.
Maybe we can round up another volunteer.
Do you want something to drink? No, thanks.
What were you talking to Katie about? The formal.
We're on the planning committee.
I wanted to ask her to go, but I don't know if she knows me well enough to say yes.
We could use a few more people on the committee.
You want me to help put together a dance? We meet every day after school and during lunch, and you would get to work side-by-side with Katie, who would be so happy with anyone who wanted to help.
Where do I sign up? - But who is it?! - He asked for privacy.
Well, can't you even give us a hint? I told him I wouldn't tell anyone that he was here.
Can I get anyone anything else? You can get Cassie to tell us the name of the mystery man who's been staying at Grey House for the past three days.
I've been living in the same house with him, and even I don't - know who it is.
- Is this the mystery man that I've been sending the same grilled cheese and French fries - to every single night? - Every single night.
So, we know he likes grilled cheese.
- And French fries.
- And he arrived by private jet.
It's been parked at the county air strip since he got here.
- Oh! - He is doing some work here.
I take him his tea every day at 1 o'clock, and I told him I wouldn't tell anyone what he is doing.
Well, if he has a private jet, then he has to be rich.
- Maybe famous.
- Ooh, or maybe even royalty! And he's here by himself, so he's probably single.
I just wish somebody could find out more about who he is.
Somebody really should.
- Noah.
- Hi.
- What're you working on? - School formal stuff.
Oh, I was actually wanting to talk with you about that.
I figured we were gonna go, but I hadn't officially asked you, so Yes.
Yes! Of course, yes.
I was thinking I should do a big, fancy invitation, but No.
This is perfect.
And I get something to eat.
Yeah.
I was thinking that might be the icing on the cake.
- Who are you? - I brought you some tea.
No.
No, Cassie brings that at 1 o'clock.
It's not even 12:30.
I was just thinking in case she forgets.
Should I bring this in? Yeah.
Fine.
Thank you.
Where would you like it? Well, anywhere is fine.
What are you working on? I'm, um developing a dating website.
Really? I've never used one of those before.
Well, you'd be surprised how many people have to get over the awkwardness of meeting people.
- Can I see what it does? - Oh, no! I'm sorry.
I'm very careful with my work.
I write it all out on this board because I like to see everything right out in front of me, and then I transfer it all to an offline computer, so no one can hack into what I'm doing.
And then I erase it all, and I start over fresh in the morning.
Isn't that a lot of trouble to go through for something that sets people up for lunch? Oh, no.
No, it does a lot more than that.
I'm Abigail, by the way.
- Hmm? - Abigail.
Oh! I'm Phil.
Well, I will let you get back to it.
Yeah.
Um Thank you for bringing the the tea.
Phil.
Sam, this is one of my guests.
- Oh, hi.
- Hi.
- Do you have a recycling bin? - I do in the kitchen.
I'm not gonna be needing all these questionnaires anymore.
- Oh.
Well, here.
- Let me take it for you.
- Oh, thanks.
- Yeah.
Is this what you've been working on? Yeah, when I was building my, um - Well, my dating website.
- You should tell Sam - about what you're doing.
- It sounds like you're some - kind of a high-tech matchmaker.
- Yeah.
Yeah, sort of.
I figured out a way to guarantee perfect pairings based on subjects' responses to some carefully-constructed statements designed to draw out - specific levels of information.
- Things like, do you like - your ice cream in a cup or cone? - No.
We ask open-ended questions, like describe your perfect Sunday afternoon; why do your friends say they're friends with you; and then we have people write out the answers longhand, so they reveal even more about themselves.
Yeah, I always felt like putting pen to paper was a more personal form of communication.
- You and I think alike.
- And then I input the data and I run it through an algorithm that discovers connections the applicants might have never realized they had.
Oh.
Why are some of these stapled together? Those are couples that my program matched up.
Oh.
I bet they were happy to have found someone - so right for them.
- Oh, no.
This is just beta testing.
To show the program works, I hired a marketing firm to take anonymous samples, but we didn't do any real-world meetups.
Oh, but these two people are perfect for each other? - That's what the computer says.
- Well, look at that.
This man and woman both live in Middleton.
How can you tell? I didn't take any names or addresses.
Well, yeah, but they describe places they like to go: the park with the footbridge over Eternity Creek, and the bookstore where they do readings every Saturday night.
- I mean, that's all right here.
- It was a national sample.
What are the odds two of them would be from Middleton? I'm not someone who thinks too much about the odds, but I do like to help the right people find each other.
Cassie, the chance of finding those two people based on those answers But you're also not somebody who thinks about chance either.
I don't understand.
What are you gonna do? She's gonna figure out who those two people are.
And bring 'em together.
Good morning, Sam.
Morning.
- What are you reading? - Dating questionnaires.
Ah.
You really think you can figure that out? - I can't not try.
- Well, I'm just glad I didn't have to fill out one of these in order to meet you.
"What's the sound of your favourite colour?" - Ooh, that's easy.
A flute.
- And what colour - does that sound like? - Magenta.
- You say that like it's obvious.
- Isn't it? "What three things would you need in order to spend the perfect hour?" Ooh! I can answer this one.
Cassie, Cassie and Cassie.
- That's just one thing.
- I have my own way of doing math.
And I gotta get to work.
- All right.
- Oh, and good luck finding anybody based on those questions.
I don't even know who they would've asked to fill one of those things out.
- Ooh, that's a good idea.
- I had an idea? Phil said he hired a marketing team to gather this data.
Maybe they can tell me who these people are.
So you're gonna get in touch with whoever conducted - the survey? - It was your idea.
Hmm! I'm a genius.
So he's a website designer.
Yeah but he's way too into his work, and he thinks dating is just two people being matched up by a computer.
- Computers - Whatever happened to just walking past a guy four or five times until he notices you? Four or five times? OK, well some of us have to walk further than others.
Hello.
Are you here to talk about floral arrangements for the dance? I am, but Nick is here to pick up the corsage for his date.
- Who are you going with? - Uh, this girl on the dance - committee that I'm working with.
- You're on the dance committee? It was to get to know the girl that he wanted to ask.
And I asked her, and it worked.
What colour dress is she wearing? I'm supposed to know that already? Oh Find out, and then there's a book of corsages over there.
Thank you.
OK.
Well, I should be getting back to work.
Maybe I'll find a guy to walk past one or five times.
See you later.
I saw Noah do his cute little dance invite yesterday.
Yeah, he's really looking forward to going.
We both are, which is why I wanna make sure that the flowers look really good.
- OK.
Where are you having it? - At the school, in the gym.
You're holding a romantic winter formal in a gym? It barely smells like basketballs in there.
Grace, this is one of those nights you're gonna remember for the rest of your life.
Can't you find - somewhere better than that? - But the dance is this Saturday.
It is too late to find someplace else.
You're on the committee, aren't you? - Yes.
- And you're a Merriwick? - Yes.
- It's never too late for a Merriwick.
We can always make things better.
Hello? - Yes.
- This is Helen Thorland.
I got your number from Phil Sturgess.
You conducted a survey last year for a dating website - he's working on.
- I supervised the team that did, yes.
His program made: two people who live in my town and are perfect for each other, and I wondered if there might be a way to contact them.
I'm sorry.
We keep all of our surveys confidential.
Oh If it helps, the sample we used was 300 men and women, So they were really determined to meet their right match.
And they were all between the ages of 25 and 29.
Well, that's something to go on.
Thank you.
I appreciate your help.
I just don't see how it's possible.
The dance is only a few days away, and you wanna move it from indoors at the high school to outside in the city park? I wanna call it A Night Under the Stars.
And I call it wishful thinking.
Have you even considered the cost? I ran the numbers, and we can make it work.
And it's supposed to be really nice this weekend, perfect for all of us to be outdoors.
But you'd still need a permit, and there is a rather substantial fee for that.
I was sort of wondering if you knew anyone influential at City Hall who might let us do it for free? Hmm Give me some time, and I'll see what I can do.
Thank you so much! I don't know what it is about you Merriwicks, but you always seem to be able to cast a spell over me.
That's what I was hoping.
Maybe I'm old-fashioned because I don't see how people can be brought together by answering the question: "If you're on a desert island, what historical figure would you want with you, and what would you talk about?" I get good information out of that question.
- Hello, Phil.
- So this one's - still not a believer, huh? - I'm working on him.
Other dating sites, they just ask people fill-in-the-blank questions, but I match people based on different things.
I bring people together who would have never realized they were the perfect match.
How exactly does your program decide who's supposed to be a couple? - No, no, no.
That's - That's the secret part that's one day gonna send my IPO through the roof.
Hmm.
You know, since your work is mostly done, you might enjoy seeing what's been right outside your door.
There's a park behind Grey House.
It's a good shortcut to downtown.
You might wanna - see where it leads you.
- Maybe I'll do that in the morning.
Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
- So - Yeah? "What traits of yours could be considered both positive and negative?" For you, I would write skeptical.
This woman says she has energy to burn.
She goes to bed late because she never falls asleep, and everybody she shakes hands with tells her how warm her hands feel.
When did these people fill this out? Sometime last year.
Why? Because if a patient of mine exhibited symptoms like high metabolism, irregular sleep patterns and warm skin, I'd be curious enough to have them checked out for a variety of conditions, including hyperthyroidism.
- Is it serious? - It can be.
Especially if she says she thinks she's so healthy she's never seen a doctor.
Let me see if I can move my schedule around tomorrow.
- Why? - So I have time to work with you and find the woman that wrote this.
OK.
So, we know where she likes to go on weekends.
Yeah, to that bookstore downtown.
Thank you.
Which means at least she lived in Middleton - when she filled out the form.
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah, and her desert island person is Shakespeare.
She likes to read his sonnets.
Unless that's just something she said to sound romantic.
Does anybody really read Shakespearean sonnets? I do.
What else did she say? Oh, she was on the track team - in high school.
- Here in Middleton? Yeah, she ran the mile the year her team won state.
Oh, so a Middleton athlete on a state championship team.
You know, there's there's a trophy case at City Hall with pictures of all the teams that won.
- With names? - Maybe.
Well, that's as good a place to start as any.
- We can go tomorrow morning.
- Thanks for helping, Sam.
You're not the only one in this relationship that appreciates a good mystery.
Thank you so much for meeting me here so early.
Well, if this dance is going to happen on Saturday night, we need to get on it right away.
Abigail? - Oh, good morning.
- Aren't these beautiful? Yes, I suppose they are.
Cassie told me they were in bloom, and they don't last that long this time of year, so I came by to take a look.
Well, if the winter formal ends up being here, we'll make sure to warn the students not to trample them.
Thank you.
What is that noise? Oh! Honestly, I I don't know why I ever approved giving out permits to people - to fly drones! - That's one of those models with the built-in camera.
What? Really? Well, I hope it's not taking pictures of me! I don't want the camera to see me with my resting mayor's face.
- Look out! - OH! What? Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh - Are you OK? - Oh! Yes, I I think so, yes.
Sorry.
I was showing the boys my new toy, and it kind of got away from us.
Yeah.
We're sorry, Mayor Tinsdale.
- Well, that's all right.
- I'm I'm fine.
You do have a permit, I hope, to fly that thing.
Of of course.
Well then, just try to be more careful in the future.
I will.
I will.
OK.
Oh! Thank goodness you were here to save me! Martha, this is Phil.
He's staying with us at Grey House.
Oh, so you're - the mystery man! - I am? - Martha - What? Oh.
Uh.
Mystery in the sense that it's a mystery how you happened to show up right in time.
- Right.
- Well, thanks again, and be sure to call me when you make a decision as to whether the dance can be here or not.
- Yes, Madam Mayor.
- Ta-ta! Well, you just saved our mayor from an aerial attack.
They might give you a medal for that.
Where are you headed? Oh, Cassie told me to cut through here as a shortcut from Grey House into town.
The other way is actually faster, but you can go this way too.
So I'm gonna, um I'm gonna walk.
Have a nice day.
You're lucky I was able to be here on time, considering the frightful morning I've had.
- Thank you for meeting with us.
- We're looking for high school trophies from about 10 years ago.
Oh, well, they should all be in there somewhere! Well, here's one right there.
State champs.
Yeah, and there's another one.
- Different year.
- Well, Middleton High's track team was the one to beat in those days.
- How do we narrow it down? - I wonder what these articles say about the people who were on the winning teams.
Wait, look at this.
"Miler, Marion Anderson, says that she calms herself down before each race by reading Shakespeare to herself.
" Is she the person you're looking for? How many people do you know that actually read Shakespeare? I'm sure we can find her address in the city records, and then you two can go and try and track her down.
- Hmm! - Looks like we're getting somewhere.
Hmm.
Do you think that's her? - Might be.
- Good job! Good.
Your core is getting a lot stronger.
Next Wednesday? Hi.
Can I help you? Are you Marion Anderson? - I am.
- This might seem strange, but we found you through a dating questionnaire you filled out with some handwritten essays.
I thought that was anonymous.
It was, but you were matched with someone, and I thought it would be nice to find the two of you so you could meet.
Is this him? No, I'm just a doctor who got drawn into this.
I'm Sam Radford.
Hi.
Oh, I have a friend who's a patient of yours.
Some things you mentioned on the questionnaire brought us here for a different reason.
- Is there something wrong? - Um No, not necessarily.
- Well, what's going on? - Tell me.
What you wrote about your energy level and your metabolism, along with your aversion to sunlight, made me think that you might need some medical attention.
"Medical attention" about what? It sounds like you could have an issue with your thyroid.
I've never felt like there's anything wrong.
- There might not be.
- Dr.
Radford just felt they should run some tests.
OK.
Well, whatever it takes to find out.
And I might be overly concerned, but we would wanna find out as soon as possible.
Then the coach pulls me aside and he says I've been hitting with a lot more power recently, so starting tomorrow, he's moving me to clean up.
Wait, that doesn't seem fair that they're making you clean up - instead of play.
- No, it's when I'm joking.
I know that clean up means you're batting fourth.
Congratulations.
Yeah, I'm starting to think that I might Sorry! Oh, I think it's Mayor Tinsdale.
Mayor Tinsdale? Uh-huh.
Really?! Yes! Yes, of course.
I will get started on everything right away.
OK.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That was Mayor Tinsdale, and she said that we can have the dance at the park.
I thought we were having it at the school.
I know.
I didn't wanna say anything until it was official, but it's official! So it is going to be A Night Under the Stars.
- That's great! - I know! But I am going to have to say no to bowling.
I gotta get home, put a list together before the end of the night.
You have been putting lists together all week.
- It's why I've hardly seen you.
- I know, but we want everything to be special, right? I guess but you're gonna be at my game tomorrow, right? - Yes, of course! - I wouldn't miss it.
I'm glad you convinced me to come.
- So are we.
- So, I've asked the lab to run a few tests to find out if your thyroid is functioning properly, but if it's not, and we caught it in time, you'll have to take hormones and beta blockers.
And what if we didn't catch it in time? Oh, there's an iodine treatment that's safe, and there's very few side effects.
I can hardly believe that you were able to track me down based on how I answered a dating questionnaire.
It's a good thing you were a Shakespeare-loving track star.
Marion? They're ready for you in the lab.
So, Dr.
Stallings will be the one working with you down there, and I'll consult with him once the results come back.
And oversee your treatment, if there is any.
I'll see you in a bit.
- Thank you so much.
- Sure.
- Marion should be thanking you.
- There's no way of knowing that she'd be OK if you hadn't really wanted to find her and that man she's so right for.
Yeah, well, finding her perfect match doesn't seem like the most important thing right now.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
I'll let you know how she is as soon as I hear anything.
- OK? - Yeah, thanks.
- Oh! - Excuse me.
Sorry.
So, is that how your website works? - Hmm? - You figure out where someone's gonna be and just keep running into them? Actually, that's something I could work into the software.
But it takes more than just the right program, - doesn't it? - It's matching a person with the thing they desire.
It's simple.
That just sounds like marketing.
It's a lot more than that.
When I worked in advertising, it was all about creating wants and needs that the customer didn't even know they had.
Yes, but people who are alone all want the same thing.
They all want to not be alone.
So you're selling them on the fantasy that there's someone for everyone? I'm selling them on the idea that if there is someone out there, I'm gonna make sure they meet up.
But how can you be so sure that they're gonna find the right one? Because I look under the surface and get to the intangibles in a person's life.
My algorithm analyses key words and phrases, and it actually reads between the lines to form a deeper personality profile, and then it matches up people who'd have had no idea they should even be together.
That would be amazing if it works.
- It's gonna work.
- Between the Lines is going to be the biggest thing in internet matchmaking ever! Abigail! Martha says we can have the dance at the park.
- That's great! - Look out for drones.
- What? - Never mind.
I should get back to my work, unless you think I'm wasting my time.
I didn't say that.
- No, not exactly.
- Not in those words, but I read between the lines.
- He seems nice.
- Yeah, I guess so.
- You know, he likes you.
- No.
- He likes you.
- He barely knows me.
Oh, come on.
Did you not just see the way - that he was looking at you? - No, I didn't.
Well, then it's a good thing that I got here in time to point it out.
As Dr.
Stallings explained, you do have hyperthyroidism, but luckily, we caught it early, and it's easy to treat.
I want you to make some changes in your diet, and a few other adjustments to your lifestyle.
Is one of those lifestyle adjustments meeting that perfect match that you and Cassie said is out there for me? Well, if only it were that easy.
- It was hard enough to find you.
- That's OK.
I won't get my hopes up.
Although I guess he's the one who'll never know what he's missing.
That's the way to think about it.
When does the dancefloor arrive? Saturday morning, but someone should be here early to make sure it gets set up in the right spot.
- Oh, I can do that.
- OK.
And then we can move the tables and chairs over here, and put the heaters in the tent where the food will be.
I didn't realize there was this much to do just to get ready for a dance.
Yeah, which is why it's so great that you're helping us.
OK.
Well, I think we've got everything all planned out.
I just feel like we're forgetting something.
What else is there? Noah! Hi! I forgot your game.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
How did you do? We won.
- That's great.
- I just, I wanted to make sure you didn't leave without looking over the timeline for the night of the dance.
I highlighted everything you need to do - starting as soon as you get here.
- OK.
Thank you.
Thanks.
So, how much more committee stuff - do you have to do? - Just a few more things.
Do you have to work during the dance too? Just whatever's highlighted.
You know, all I wanted to do was dance with my girlfriend.
I didn't know I had to schedule time in between jobs.
We can still find the time.
Look, if you're gonna be too busy, maybe we should just forget about it.
Forget about what? Maybe we shouldn't go to the dance at all.
Oh, it's just you.
- Who was I supposed to be? - I thought you might be Phil.
No, I think he's upstairs working.
Good, because I don't know what to say - when I run into him again.
- Oh.
Have you been - running into him? - A lot.
And your daughter seems - to think that he likes me.
- Grace is a pretty good judge - about those kinds of things.
- I know.
What if she's right? Guys have liked you before.
Not one who's practically living in this house.
- Do you like him? - I thought that I might, and then we sort of started arguing about how people should meet.
Right.
People who argue can't possibly be interested in each other.
Phil! We were just talking about you.
Is it about how you stole the idea for my website? - Stole your what? - I just found out that someone else is starting a site exactly like mine.
And the only way they could have found out about it is from the only person that I told.
And the only person I told was you.
Why would I have stolen your idea, and what would I even do with it? Companies pay a lot of money for intellectual property - like this.
- You think I would do this - for money? - How do you know it was stolen? Because PhysiCorp Systems just announced the release date for their dating website called In-between the Lines.
It's supposed to come out three weeks before mine was going to go live.
They're saying how it goes beyond the usual yes and no answers.
It uses an algorithm exactly like the one I came up with, and I wrote it on my whiteboard, and the only person I told about the algorithm was you.
- I told only you.
- I didn't tell anyone! Then how else could they have found out about it? You'll be hearing from my lawyers tomorrow, which is exactly when I'll be checking out of this place, which I wish I'd never come to.
Can I help you? I hope so.
I'm looking for somebody who maybe works here.
He filled out a questionnaire last year, and I just wanted to get in touch with him regarding the results.
The way he wrote and the interests he wrote about made me think he might be a sports columnist.
I can put you in touch with ours.
Great.
Probably late 20s, early 30s.
Oh, our guy's way older.
He's been here since Super Bowl I.
- Oh.
- You might try the Blairsville Clarion.
They hired a new guy - about a year ago.
- Ah.
That means I have to go to Blairsville and I was having such a good day.
- Thanks for your help.
- Sure.
Good luck.
Oh, there you are.
What time did you finally get home last night? Not until after midnight.
We still have so much to get ready before the dance.
- Tonight's the big night.
- Yeah.
Except Noah's not going.
- What? - We've been texting back and forth since he told me, and I didn't wanna tell you until it was official, but It's official.
- What happened? - He doesn't think I'm gonna - have time to be with him.
- And is he right about that? I mean, I'm gonna have a few things to do, but we were still gonna be there.
Be there at the same time, but together? As much as possible.
Well, that's too bad.
I know that Noah was really looking forward to being there with you.
When did you get that? I've had this around for a while.
That's nice.
Yeah, I always thought it was pretty special.
Hey, Sam.
Hi.
- Hi, Grace.
- Hi.
What's going on with her? Oh, high school dance problems.
How's Marion? - Oh, I met with her yesterday.
- She's gonna be fine.
She doesn't - need any major procedures.
- Oh, well that's good to hear.
- You wanna hear something else? - Mm-hmm.
I tracked down the guy that's her perfect match.
Since when did you become a matchmaker? It was just Marion seemed so curious about meeting him, and I thought, we've come this far, why not go all the way? - Well, how'd you find him? - Well, in his questionnaire, he said that he loved basketball but wasn't good enough to play, and he used a few sports metaphors in his essay, which was really well written, and he mentioned that his proudest moment was the first column he had published in college.
I went on the hunch that maybe he's working as a sports writer.
And you went around to every newspaper - in the tri-county area? - Well, there are only seven, but I got lucky after two.
His name's Richard Stroud.
I looked up his address online, and I thought I wanna go there.
Yeah.
Now.
- Which is why I brought my car.
- OK.
Oh, Abigail! There you are.
Have you been back to that park where I saw you the other day? - Not since you saw me there.
- I was hoping you might've taken a stroll through with our mystery man.
That will not be happening, no.
And you haven't seen our drone-flying man - doing any drone flying? - No.
Why? Well, I was able to get city council to pass an ordinance banning those things from the park, and I wanted to tell him that his permit was officially revoked.
Maybe see if his kids are there, the ones that were - flying the drone with him? - Oh, those weren't his kids.
Those are the Willets' boys.
Their mother just lets them - run wild.
- So that man was flying - that drone by himself? - Mm-hmm.
- And you haven't seen him since? - No.
Do you still have his permit on file? - Yes, it's public record.
- So I could take a look at it? At City Hall, yes.
Then what are we doing here? Well, I was gonna order a Never mind.
So, I read some of Richard's columns.
- He's really good.
- Yeah, a perfect match for an English lit major like Marion.
So maybe the computer is really better than all of us at figuring out who should be together.
There might be a few things that we know more than it does, but let's just see if we found our match, and let the future decide the rest.
- Hello.
- Hey.
We're looking for Richard Stroud.
Well, then you've come to the right place.
Oh.
Mr.
Stroud, my name is Cassie Nightingale.
- And I'm Sam Radford.
- We found - your name when we - Oh, no.
Sorry.
I'm Richard's brother, Stephen.
I'm housesitting while he and his wife are on their honeymoon.
Your brother's married? Yeah, just last week.
He finally found the love of his life.
Oh, sorry.
I'm all out of ideas for you to steal.
I didn't steal your idea, but I think I know who did.
Remember that man in the park who was flying the drone with his sons? Well, those were not his sons, and he doesn't even live in Middleton.
I got a look at his permit, and he arrived the exact same day you did, and now he's gone.
- So? - So, I think he used the drone to take photos of that whiteboard, which is facing the window.
But how would he have known that's how I like to work? Someone you used to work with would know that.
Maybe you should take a look at the name on this permit.
So, what are we gonna tell Marion? I don't know.
Maybe it's better that she never knows what happened to her perfect match.
Because Richard found somebody that he must think - is more perfect than she is.
- I guess computers aren't always right.
I feel so bad for her.
You know, I'm surprised that you're this disappointed.
It's just after the diagnosis and everything, I was hoping we could give Marion some kind - of happily-ever-after.
- Hmm.
Well, you never know.
That part of the story may not be written yet.
Grace.
Hi.
Why aren't you at the dance? Because I wanted to be here instead.
You look amazing.
Thank you.
Um Look, I was thinking about what you said, about just wanting us to be able to dance together.
That's what I wanted too, to dance under the stars.
So I, um brought some music.
And the stars were already up there, just waiting to be danced under.
I was wondering if you still wanted to do what that cupcake said.
Did I already tell you how great you look? You did, yeah.
I'm - I'm a little underdressed.
- What? No.
You look fine.
Thank you.
- You know - we can still make it to the dance if you want.
Why? Things are perfect right here.
- Sorry.
- Excuse me.
Go ahead.
Oh, no.
I was just browsing.
My brother told me about this place, and I thought it'd be a good way to spend a Saturday night.
Is there anything specific you like? I'm not really an expert on books.
Oh.
Have you ever read Shakespeare? People read Shakespeare? They have a whole section over here.
- I'd love to take a look.
- OK.
- Everybody loves the plays - Yeah? but I'm fascinated by the sonnets.
Good morning.
Well, it seems you were right about the guy with the drone.
He worked for my company.
I never met him, but I guess he was upset about being fired, or He went to my former partner, who knew how I like to work on the white board.
That's how they were able to steal my idea.
Well, I'm glad you got to the bottom of that.
I should have known you'd never have done it.
I just didn't know how else it could have happened.
And now you do.
Yeah.
Anyway, my lawyers were able to keep them from working with my intellectual property.
So you can put your website online? I could but I'm not going to.
I figured out I have a lot to learn about dating before I start telling people who should and should not be together.
You sure do.
But I thought maybe you could teach me.
If you wanted to.
Anyway, I'm gonna be staying at Grey House for a while, so maybe I'll see you around.
And, ooh, here's a picture of us dancing, and and then, ooh! Here's a picture of us eating burgers.
And here's one of him giving me a corsage that's actually just a flower that he picked out of his backyard.
Sounds like the two of you had a good time.
It was everything we both wanted it to be, but I've gotta go.
Noah has a game today, and I promised that I would be there - before the first pitch.
- Well, cheer loudly.
Oh, I will.
Bye.
Oh, Nick! How was the dance? Did you and Katie have a good time? - We hardly had any time at all.
- With you not there, I had to work twice as hard, and we barely saw each other.
That's too bad.
I'm sorry.
Well, all I know is that I won't be volunteering to help at any more school dances.
- Hi, Grace.
- Oh! Hi, Katie.
Did Nick tell you how amazing he was at the dance last night? - He told me a little.
- There was so much to do, and he did it all.
Didn't complain, just dove in - and got the job done.
- Hmm! Well I mean, I did volunteer.
We should go out some other time and actually - be together, OK? - Yeah.
- Next weekend? - Yeah.
- Great! I'll see you.
- Bye.
You know, it's not too late to volunteer to help out with the prom.
I might consider doing that.
Oh, I wanted to catch Grace and congratulate her on how the formal went off without a hitch.
Perfect weather, well-behaved teens, - and best of all, no drones.
- No drones is pretty much - the key to any successful dance.
- It's the key to everything, which is why I'm so pleased that they arrested that conniving drone operator for trying to steal that young man's computer dating idea.
And I'm glad Abigail was cleared of any wrongdoing.
Justice in Middleton is swift and severe.
Criminals are not welcome here.
Oh! That would make a great slogan.
I'm gonna put it on the welcome sign.
So I saw Marion last night at a bookstore.
Guess who she was with? - Who? - Stephen Stroud.
I thought she was matched with his brother.
All I know is the two of them seem to be having a good time.
So the computer wasn't right about who's supposed - to be with whom.
- But somehow, the right two people ended up together anyway.
It's funny how things work out that way, isn't it? Yeah.
Funny.
