- Good morning.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Have you been up for a while?
Not too long.
You still worried about Calvin?
No, he's not gonna mess with us.
Well, I'm worried about Charmaine
all alone with the twins.
I know.
What are we gonna do?
I'm gonna go talk to Brie.
I want to see
about getting a restraining order.
It's nice having
a lawyer in the family, huh?
[Jack] Mmm.
Well, in a few days, I'm gonna be adding
a nurse practitioner to that list
who's basically a doctor, so I think
I'm gonna have all my bases covered.
[laughing]
Well, don't forget you're also adding
a reclusive songwriter
who goes radio silent for days.
Try not to lose hope.
Yeah.
I wish I could just
write him off, but I can't.
You know?
If it If being in the wedding
is too much for him, it's fine,
but I still want to get to know him.
After all these months,
he still feels like a stranger.
Well, I think you've done
everything you can.
I haven't told him the truth.
What time is it?
- [Jack scoffs]
- What?
It's a little early to turn up
on Everett's doorstep,
if that's what you mean.
Besides, you slept right through
the couldn't-get-the-kindling-lit phase,
so you're gonna stay right here,
and you're gonna enjoy
this roaring fire for a little while.
[Mel softly] Okay.
[tranquil music playing]
[uplifting music playing]
Looks like the rain's behind us.
Still cloudy, though.
[door opens]
- Everything okay?
- [Lizzie] Couldn't be better.
[Denny] So great.
[Doc] Hey, Hope, have you seen my Thermos?
- [Hope] Thermos? Got it right here.
- Oh, thanks.
- [Hope] Mm-hmm.
- Hey.
Bye!
[Hope] I was thinking, it might be worth
going over that jerk's head.
Sit down with the Grace Valley CEO
and convince him
to call the whole investigation off.
Well, that sounds like
it would be poking the bear.
I mean,
they're interviewing Cameron today.
I'm sure he'll sing my praises.
And my malpractice insurance guy,
he says the best thing for me to do
is just keep my head down.
Well, I'm sure he's excited about
the higher premiums he'll get
once this turns into a full-blown inquiry.
Yeah, well, I'm heading up to
the Baker house to double-check on Henry,
which I think is the best use of my time
rather than talking to
some hospital administrator.
[sighs]
Wrap it up, Lizzie. We have a long list
of wedding-related errands.
Oh, Denny, can you remind Muriel
that she needs to finish
the reception seating chart
by the end of the day?
On it.
First thing on our list, we need a saddle.
Don't ask. [sighs]
[tools clattering]
[Mike] Brie, you gotta see this.
[clattering continues]
Check it out!
No drip.
Wow!
[laughs] I've had three plumbers over
who couldn't fix it.
Yep. None of them knew
how much that drip bothered you.
Yeah, it drove me crazy.
But you didn't have to do that. [laughs]
Well, in the words of the immortal
James Taylor, "I'm your handyman."
[knock on door]
- Hi.
- Morning.
All right, I know it's early,
but I wanted to catch you before work.
Oh, that's okay.
Can I get you some coffee?
Or water. I can get you a glass
from this no-drip sink. Hey, look.
Yeah, Mike just fixed the faucet,
and he's very proud of that fact.
Uh, congratulations.
But, no, I don't want anything to drink.
- I just wanted to get some legal help.
- Oh.
Calvin threatened me last night.
He's also threatened Charmaine
if he doesn't get access to the twins.
[scoffs]
After flipping on Melissa Montgomery,
I thought he might've been reformed.
Calvin?
Yeah, no, the guy's bad news, which is why
Charmaine should get a restraining order.
- Well, I can definitely help with that.
- Great.
And we can increase patrols
in Charmaine's neighborhood.
Could also you dig around
and see if maybe Calvin's dealing drugs
or into anything that might violate
his deal with the feds?
Yeah, nothing would make me happier
than putting that man behind bars again.
Has he threatened Charmaine directly?
I mean, I saw them together
at the courthouse. He's serious.
We should talk to her.
I just settled a case,
so my morning's free.
- [Jack] Great! Do we go?
- Yeah.
Uh, you want me to come?
Uh, no, no, I think we're good.
Um
- It's better to divide and conquer, right?
- All right.
Okay.
Okay!
- See ya.
- [Mike] Mmm.
- [indistinct chatter]
- [contented music playing]
[Lark exclaims]
- Brady!
- [Brady] Hey, kiddo.
Look what I found.
Don't you want to keep it?
Nah. Looks better on you.
- Thanks, Brady.
- [chuckles]
- Mom, look!
- [Lark exclaims]
Why don't you go share your bubbles
with one of the other kids, okay?
- I can hold on to your tiara.
- Okay.
- Bye, Brady.
- See ya.
[Lark] What are you doing here?
I came to see how the kid was doing.
Give her back her stuff.
After the fires, you were so cute
playing dress-up with her.
That was the first day I knew that
everything would be okay.
Yeah. Well, for me, it was like
every other day we spent together, a lie.
Brady.
My feelings for you weren't a lie.
They were real.
They They are real.
When everyone else in town judged you,
I gave you the benefit of the doubt.
Can't you do the same for me?
Come on, just give me a second chance.
It's not gonna happen. Okay?
[somber music playing]
[knock on door]
Well, this is a surprise.
I I owe you a hike.
Sure.
- Why don't you come in and I'll get ready?
- Okay.
Sorry I haven't reached out.
No Ugh, this is
I I should be the one to apologize.
I have been
putting way too much pressure on you.
You're alone out here for years,
and I just show up out of nowhere,
and suddenly you're expected
to be father of the bride.
Well, I mean, it was a [laughs]
a bit more than I bargained for.
I know. I know.
Which is why
you don't have to walk me down the aisle
and you do not have to perform your song.
It It's not that I don't want to.
I never finished it.
The only thing worse
than not being a part of your life
is disappointing you now that I am.
You should have just said that.
I wanted to.
I came to the drive-in to explain, but
So, why didn't you?
[sighs] I ran into Vernon.
What happened?
I decided the best thing I could do
is stay away.
I don't think I can be
who you need me to be.
No, I don't need you to be anything.
I really don't.
I just want to get to know you.
And I I will find another way
to honor my mom at the ceremony.
[gentle music playing]
You know, I might be able
to help you with that.
What do you say,
instead of going for a hike,
we go for a drive?
Come on.
Okay.
Oh, you are gonna love it!
Just Just take a bite.
It's beautiful, but, honestly,
there's only so many radishes
a person can eat in their life,
and I hit my quota seven salads ago.
Aw, come on.
So, what, you think I'm going a little
overboard with this rehearsal dinner?
You've cooked four different variations
of pork chop brined in buttermilk.
Well, I just want to get it right.
You know, it's Jack's favorite dish.
And he will love any one of the variations
that you decide to serve.
Ah, I don't know, it's just
Ah, the paprika-to-brown-sugar ratio
just tastes a little bit off.
- [door opens]
- Preacher, more rice! Stat!
On it.
Just try the salad.
[Preacher grunts]
Here we go.
Sorry about running through
all your supplies.
One of us
is a little loose with the grains.
So sue me.
I want to send Jack and Mel off in style.
Oh, believe me, ladies, we are all
going the extra mile for this wedding.
No reason to be stingy.
There's plenty more where this came from.
Well, well, well!
Hello, Chef.
Well, "Hello, Chef" to you.
To what do we owe this honor?
Couldn't pass through Virgin River
without stopping by.
You are just the woman I need right now.
[intriguing music playing]
[door opens and closes]
Ugh, I can't believe
that Calvin threatened you.
God, the last thing that I wanted
was to drag you into this.
No, no, no! Don't worry, okay?
We're just gonna make sure
that he stays away from you and the boys.
Thank you.
You might want to think
about getting a restraining order.
- Definitely.
- Okay.
So, we're gonna need proof of harassment.
Has he threatened you in any way?
[scoffs] Well, he's been pretty pissed
since I got full custody of the twins.
Last week, he stormed in here
and demanded to see them.
Said I'd regret it if I didn't let him.
- [softly] I told you.
- Mmm.
Did anybody hear him threaten you?
Uh, yeah, um, a couple of the girls.
Also, last week,
I found my car window smashed in.
I know it was Calvin.
- Jeez.
- Wow.
When is this gonna end?
Well, we're gonna
help you get through it, okay?
That's why we're here.
[sighs]
You were the first nice guy
that I've been with.
Why didn't I wait until I found another?
- [phone ringing]
- Um
- Sorry.
- [phone beeps]
Ah, hey, Lizzie.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down.
Hope's what?
[groans] Okay. All right.
I'll I'll be right there.
Is everything okay?
I think we're gonna
have to get to the farm.
Oh, okay. Well, look, I think that we
have enough for a restraining order.
Right? So, if he contacts you,
if he shows up at all,
you call me day or night, doesn't matter.
Thank you. Really, I
I don't know what I'd do without you.
We're gonna make sure
he can't hurt you or the boys, okay?
- Don't worry!
- Okay.
See ya.
- [pensive music playing]
- [sighs]
[Mel] Are we getting close?
Is that your way of asking
"are we there yet"?
- [chuckles] Maybe.
- Mmm.
So, are we?
It's like we're on
a real family road trip.
Well, not quite.
I haven't gotten carsick
in the back seat yet.
We still have a ways to go.
- Don't give up the dream.
- [laughs]
Oh my God.
- [Everett] Oh man.
- [Mel] Do you have a first aid kit?
- Yeah, in the back.
- Okay, grab it and call 911.
- I'm gonna check on everybody.
- All right.
[tense music playing]
[gasps] Mel!
- [Marley gasps]
- [rocks tumbling]
[Marley] Mel! Oh, I'm so glad you're here!
- Oh my God. Are you okay?
- [Marley] I think so, but
We were driving
when the rocks started falling.
I braked but slammed into one of them.
- I was wearing my seatbelt, do
- Do you think that could hurt the baby?
Oh no, it's very doubtful.
But let me take a look.
Okay, Marley. Do you have any pain
or discomfort when I press here?
- No.
- Any tightness in your chest?
No.
Okay. I I don't see any signs
of abdominal injury,
and your breathing is fine.
[Marley] Okay.
- Did you feel that?
- I did.
- What happened?
- The baby kicked.
[sighs] Okay, I need to go check
on the other people in their cars.
- Can we help?
- [clamoring]
No, no, no. Please stay here.
I don't know how stable those rocks are.
- Okay?
- [rocks tumbling]
- [tense music continues]
- [survivor whimpering faintly]
- Can you check on those people?
- [Everett] Yeah.
Careful.
[rocks rumbling]
You know,
when I volunteered to be a fireman,
I was thinking there'd be a few more fires
and a lot less Jenga.
You're just bitter
'cause you lost four in a row.
Uh-uh-uh! He's about to make it five.
Chief, do you mind
kicking Roy's ass again to shut him up?
Why? 'Cause you can't?
Oh, trash talk all you want.
It's not gonna break my concentration.
- [Mike] Brady!
- [gasps]
I need to talk to you.
Sure.
Workplace visit, must be important.
Yeah, you looked real busy.
Have you talked to Calvin lately?
- Calvin?
- Trying to figure out what he's up to.
Any idea
if he's back into drug trafficking?
How would I know?
I'm just looking for any and all leads.
You've traveled in those circles before
Yeah, and I stayed there
to help you bust Melissa Montgomery.
- Remember?
- Yeah, and you asked me to make you a CI
Listen, I'm not trying to pretend
that I'm some sort of angel. All right?
Sorry, I had to ask.
No, you didn't.
[Kaia on PA] Rock slide
on County Route Five.
- [alarm blaring]
- [Kaia] Rock slide on County Route Five.
Gotta go save lives!
[Mel] Okay, almost done.
The firefighters should be here soon
to get you out.
Okay.
- [Everett] Here you go.
- Okay, thank you.
Okay. All right, that should do it.
[Pauline] Thank you, Mel.
[dramatic music playing]
Are you still taking Eliquis?
Yeah. Two a day, just like Doc told me.
Okay. It's okay. It's okay.
[sighs] We're gonna need a lot more
than a few bandages to stop the bleeding.
You don't have a tourniquet
in your first aid kit, do you?
No, uh, three different
kinds of Band-Aids.
- I have a belt.
- You're wearing a belt?
[Everett] Great minds.
[sighs] All right.
All right, Pauline,
I'm gonna put this around your arm.
And it's gonna be a little uncomfortable.
But it should help to stem the blood
before the paramedics get here, okay?
[weakly] Okay.
Okay.
Okay, um
We need to check on the Millers
and try to get them out soon as possible.
- All right.
- Okay?
Wait, wait, wait.
You're just gonna leave me alone?
No, no, no.
- [Everett] I got this.
- Okay.
Hey, um, she could go into shock,
so just keep an eye on her, okay?
Okay.
- [Pauline whimpers]
- Hey.
- Hey, I'm not going anywhere. All right?
- [Pauline] Okay.
- [Sugar whinnying]
- [Hope] Hey!
I just need to get this on your back!
[grunts]
[Sugar snorts and whinnies]
Hope! Okay, put the blanket down.
Let's have somebody who hasn't had
a traumatic brain injury deal with this!
That's what I told her.
[Jack] Hope!
Roland won't take him
if he can't be ridden.
Well, can't you just board the horse
for the wedding?
And let Roland know I lied to him? Never!
Yeah, you know, Brie used to ride
all the time when we were kids.
- She did?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I I did. They used to call me
"the little horse whisperer."
Oh, that's right.
Hope, we have a really long list
of wedding errands to get through.
[clicks tongue] Fine!
But he needs to be rideable
before the wedding.
Yeah. He will be.
[gentle music playing]
All right, good luck.
You know I've ridden a horse
a grand total of once, right?
So riding Sugar is all on you.
I know. Come on.
- How hard could it be?
- [Sugar snorts softly]
[whinnies loudly]
[rocks clattering]
Okay, let's just make sure
you can turn your neck without any issues.
- Okay.
- Okay. Slowly.
Okay. Okay.
My husband Jeb died less than a year ago.
[Everett sighs]
You know, if something happens to me,
my daughter's gonna be all alone.
- [cries softly]
- I won't let that happen.
- [Pauline sniffling] Okay.
- What's her name?
- Annabelle.
- [rocks tumbling]
- [rocks thudding]
- [yelps softly]
[Mel] Okay. You're all right.
Okay, Gretchen,
I just want you to lean on me. Okay?
[Gretchen whimpers]
- All right. Howard?
- [Gretchen exhaling]
- [grunts]
- Oh! I'm gonna be right back, okay?
Just sit tight. Okay, just come this way.
- [dramatic music playing]
- Ah
Looks like Annabelle's
a bit of a chocoholic.
[strained chuckle]
Yeah, we both are.
Me too.
[strained laugh]
You ever been
to the Ghirardelli Chocolate Square?
I promised her we'd go together one day.
[Everett] Well, when you two go, you
you have to order their ice cream sundae.
Comes in a bowl that looks like a bathtub.
You turn the faucet
and hot fudge comes out.
- Really?
- [chuckling] Yeah.
All right.
Just stay here and try to breathe, okay?
Can you watch her, please?
[sighs]
- Doc, thank God.
- Hey.
I was around the bend checking on Henry.
I got the call.
[Mel sighs] Okay, well,
there are six people total.
Four were able to walk away
without any major injuries, and
two are still trapped in their cars.
I had to do a makeshift tourniquet
on an upper arm laceration.
- Upper arm tourniquet? Why?
- It's Pauline Barker.
- She's on the blood thinners. Good call.
- Yeah.
What the hell's he doing here?
We gotta clear the area.
I needed him to watch her
in case she went into shock.
Uh, get out of the way.
Let me in here.
Hey, Pauline.
- Hey, it's Doc. Hi.
- [Pauline weakly] Oh. Hi.
- You feel that?
- [groaning] Ah
[Doc] Uh-huh.
- [rock thuds]
- [yelps]
[rocks tumbling]
This hillside's not too stable.
- We're gonna have to work fast.
- Yeah.
Okay, hang in there. We'll be all right.
I'm gonna take good care of you.
[crying] Okay.
[sirens wailing in background]
Hey. I'm still here.
Okay.
[indistinct chatter]
And that's the last one.
Hmm!
These rice bags
are a great idea, Jo Ellen.
- Hope is gonna love them!
- Mmm.
- How are we doing, ladies?
- Oh, perfect timing.
We decided to make rice organza bags.
Don't you just love them?
No, I do not. We can't use these.
[sputters] Well, it was her idea.
You can't throw rice at weddings anymore.
It kills the birds.
The birds eat the rice
and then their stomachs explode.
Um, that doesn't really happen.
That's just an urban legend.
Well, we're not in what I would call
an urban environment, are we?
And you might be okay
with a bunch of dead birds
raining on the wedding party, but I'm not.
But rice is a representation of fertility.
And that's strike two.
They've been dealing
with fertility issues.
I don't want to throw
a metaphorical reminder in their face.
[sighs] I'll just gather
rose petals from my garden.
- We can toss that.
- Have you ever tried to throw rose petals?
- No.
- They'll just float onto the guests.
So, what do you suggest? Silly String?
It's not a terrible idea.
- Yes, it is!
- [phone chimes]
The fact you don't see that
worries me on several levels.
Programs are ready!
Jo Ellen, you're gonna have to
figure out something else!
So, uh, that's a "no" on Silly String?
And so Food and Wine
made me an offer I couldn't refuse,
a well-paying job sampling
the finest cuisine in the Northwest.
And you don't miss the restaurant?
Do I miss spending every waking hour
worrying how I'm gonna pay my suppliers
and my staff?
No, I do not.
Well, then are you ready to weigh in?
I have to start marinating this pork
for tomorrow night,
but I have not decided
on the marinade yet.
Mmm.
The umami boost
from the glaze is spectacular.
Okay! Okay!
Now you're ready
for the honey basil marinade.
Mm-mmm! Preacher, you just won gold.
Don't go for the silver.
- So this is the one?
- Mmm.
I wish I tasted it before I wrote my piece
on the best
homestyle cuisine in California.
- This would have been the feature dish.
- Okay.
Well, now you're laying it on
a little thick.
The only thing that needs to be
laid on thick is that mustard sauce
when you serve me another pork chop.
- [phone chimes]
- [Jamie] Mmm!
And, hey, the road to the
mountain bypass is still blocked,
so looks like I got time for seconds.
All right!
[tranquil music playing]
[Jack] Sugar! Ugh!
I mean, would it be such a disaster
if he just pranced around the wedding?
He might give a little
Princess Bride vibe.
You'd love that.
Didn't you want a princess wedding?
I was eight.
Well, I'm sure you and Mike
will settle on a more mature theme.
Okay, calm down, Mom.
We've been dating for less than a year.
Well, I can't help myself.
He's a really good guy.
You guys are good together.
Yeah. Yeah. No, I know.
What? Mike have a dark side
I don't know about?
[chuckles]
What's up?
I'm a horrible person.
What are you talking about?
I slept with Brady.
[pensive music playing]
[Kaia] Roy, Brady,
check the stability of this cliff.
I need to know we're safe, okay?
Alan, take the blue car.
Guys, get the jaws ready.
As soon as we get the okay from Doc here,
we go in, extricate the passengers.
Hit this.
Tell me exactly where your neck hurts.
On the left side.
On the left side.
All right, I'm gonna feel right along
the back of the neck and to the base,
and tell me if you feel any pain.
How about now?
Nope.
Okay.
Anything now?
- Still okay.
- Okay.
Good. Good.
Good.
Now that you've cleared him,
get the firefighters to get him out
so that we can check his legs
for compound fractures.
No, we can't move a patient
with a potential neck injury.
But you just cleared him.
The left side of his neck is stiff,
and you know protocol.
Right, but you said
he had a normal range of motion.
- That mountain could come down.
- Mel
- We need to get him out, check his leg
- Hey! We are not moving him!
Whoa, what's going on?
What's going on is you're wasting time
asking too many questions!
- [Mel] What the
- [Everett] Hey.
You don't need to talk to her that way.
And you shouldn't be here.
You get hurt, you keep me from helping
this woman who's in critical condition.
[Mel] Hey.
Doc is right. We need to clear the area
of all non-essential personnel.
Thank you!
- Hey. They'll take care of you, all right?
- Okay. Thank you.
- I'll wait by the truck.
- Okay.
Hey, we're gonna take care of you.
After I told Brady about Lark and Jimmy
[sighs] He just looked so broken.
And all those feelings came rushing back.
And what about Mike?
I love him.
- You think I'm a terrible person?
- No, come on.
No, not at all.
- I'm just trying to understand.
- [sighs] Yeah, me too.
Do you think
maybe what happened with Don
is still affecting you?
I mean, you deserve to be happy,
you know that?
You deserve to be with a nice guy
like Mike who treats you well.
I do know that intellectually.
It just
After I testified against Don,
I thought that that would somehow
fix it.
[voice breaking] You know, fix me.
But there are still nights
that I can't sleep, you know?
Nights that I still
play the assault
over and over in my head, and
I don't know,
maybe instead of Xanax, it's Brady.
Look, I know what you mean about
not being able to shake the darkness.
I mean, I quit drinking, started therapy,
rock climbing as an outlet.
And I still have trouble sleeping.
I still have nightmares.
I still wake up scared
when I hear rain on the roof,
'cause I think it sounds like gunfire.
[exhales]
I don't know.
Maybe we'll never really be fixed.
Well, then, so what do we do?
We learn to live with it.
We don't let it define us.
And if we can do that,
maybe we're stronger for it.
[gentle music playing]
Why didn't you tell me
about the nightmares?
It would have been nice to know
I wasn't the only one.
Come on, our family didn't exactly have
a good track record when it came to
talking about the hard stuff.
[laughing] Good point.
You remember that time
we actually did go horseback riding?
Yeah, yeah, Mom and Dad
were in one of their moods,
and they were just trying
to get us out of the house.
Yeah, it was Adam's birthday.
I just asked if maybe they thought
Adam would be in Heaven celebrating.
And they told me to not ask questions.
Just went quiet
as soon as I mentioned his name.
I wish I had gotten to know him.
He was a lot like you.
Really?
Yeah, never met an underdog
he wouldn't fight for.
I remember the summer
when he taught me how to play baseball.
He must have told me a thousand times
to keep my glove down
until I learned how to catch a grounder.
[chuckles]
But he never gave up on me.
And I'm not gonna give up on you.
Don't you give up on yourself.
I'll give it a shot.
[Sugar huffs]
[quietly] Uh, hand me the blanket.
Okay.
Okay, boy.
Okay. Okay.
I know.
You've been through a lot too, huh?
We got you.
Okay.
- [Brie] Hi.
- Here you go.
There you go.
[tense music playing]
[Kaia] Now you're gonna hear
another loud pop, okay?
That's just my guys
cutting through the posts, all right?
[Pauline] Okay.
- [Roy] What's wrong? You know her?
- [Brady] Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
She was married to my buddy Jeb.
He died last year.
[Kaia] We're gonna get the roof off.
We'll get you out of here, okay?
- Come on, guys. Let's get her out.
- [metal thudding]
- Watch out.
- [Pauline sobbing]
[Roy] Cutting!
Clear.
[Brady] It's loose! It's loose! That's it.
- [man grunts]
- [Brady] Steady. Steady.
- [man] Come across. Come across.
- [Roy] Got it?
- [Kaia] Careful, guys. You got it.
- [metal thuds]
[Brady] Stop. All right, easy, guys.
Nice and easy. Easy.
- [Kaia] Behind. Behind.
- [Pauline sobs]
[shrieks]
[man 1] That's it. I got her legs.
Okay, move her over.
- That's it. Easy. I got this.
- [man 2] There we go.
That's it. That's it, Pauline. That's it.
You're doing great, okay?
- Just take a breath. That's it.
- [sobs] Okay.
- [Brady] We got it. Hey.
- Brady?
- Yeah.
- Brady.
No, no, no. No. No way.
Get him out of here.
What's wrong?
- You knew!
- Hey, what?
You knew what was happening
at the lumberyard.
No, Pauline, I was trying to help, okay?
- Get him away from me.
- Hey.
Jeb is dead because of you!
- [crying]
- [Brady] Okay. I'm sorry.
- [Kaia] Let's go.
- Okay. Okay.
- Pauline. Come on.
- [coughing]
Doc!
- [dramatic music playing]
- [Pauline sputtering]
I think we got a collapsed lung.
- Okay, we're gonna have to intubate.
- Okay.
- [dramatic music continues]
- [Pauline sputtering and yelping]
Come on.
- [Mel] Okay?
- Okay. Okay.
I got it.
Yeah, good.
- Good air entry into the lungs.
- Okay.
[exhales]
- [Doc] All right.
- [man] We're all clear.
This one says it too.
I think they all do.
"We welcome you to the weeding
of Melinda Monroe and Jack Sheridan."
"Weeding"! What were they thinking?
Well, maybe they thought
we were celebrating a big pot harvest.
You should've caught this.
You picked the printer,
and he sent you the sample to proof.
Well, you should have known
I wouldn't have time to proof them.
Stop yelling at me.
I'm almost eight months pregnant.
Well, I'm old, and that beats pregnant.
Plus, my ex-husband is about to find out
I lied to him about Sugar,
and my current one
could lose his medical license,
and I can't do a damn thing
about any of it!
Well, all Denny wants to talk about
is his Huntington's.
And the 50-50 chance
our daughter might have it too,
but do you know
what he doesn't wanna talk about?
The fact that soon I'll be pushing
a watermelon-sized human out of my body!
Newborns are usually smaller
than watermelons.
Unless they're the little seedless kind.
The watermelons, not the newborns.
[pensive music playing]
I'm sorry you have to deal with all that.
And I'm sorry I was taking
all my frustrations out on you today.
Yeah.
Kind of did the same thing.
You know who we should
take this all out on? The printer.
Want to go throw little bags of rice
at the print shop?
- Oh my God, I'd love to.
- [both giggling]
Oh, but we're gonna have to sweep up
all the grains of rice when we're done.
It's a legend.
[indistinct chatter]
Are you leaving?
Yeah.
We're done, right?
Um, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, uh, good work out there today.
Yeah, you too.
So, what happened today?
I screwed up. Bad.
So bad I don't think
she'll ever forgive me.
So that's her choice.
Everyone deserves a second chance.
- Just cut yourself some slack, okay?
- [sighs heavily]
- [Everett exhales]
- [Mel] Hey.
I've been watching you
take care of everyone. You're amazing.
Oh. You too.
You've got, uh, good bedside manner.
[chuckling] Well,
I'm just taking my cues from you.
You know, I've been
to the Ghirardelli chocolate store,
and I do not remember a bathtub sundae.
Well, they might have 'em.
I wouldn't know. I've never been.
I had to think of something
to take her mind off everything.
You would have been a good nurse.
You ready to go home?
I thought you were gonna
show me someplace.
You're right. Let's do it.
- [Mel] Okay.
- [tranquil music playing]
You don't think
I should go with a chocolate ganache?
Mm-mmm. Lemon tart all the way.
- [phone chimes]
- [Jamie] Oh!
The road to the mountain bypass
is finally open.
I should get going.
Hey, Jamie, I want to thank you for
helping me, you know, finalize the menu.
Are you kidding me?
I should be thanking you.
This is one of the best meals I've had
in a very long time.
Any chance that your editors
would want to do a feature
on an out-of-the-way bar
that serves what some have called
the best blue crab mac and cheese
in Northern California?
Well, that depends.
Can you make me some of that to go?
Maybe with a buttermilk pork chop
on the side?
Oh, that can be arranged.
Well, no promises,
but I will see what I can do.
And congratulations.
I'll tell Jack.
No, congratulations to you.
Last time I was here, you seemed
almost embarrassed by your talents.
It's nice to see you owning it.
[contented music playing]
[knock on door]
[Lark] Brady.
Can I come in?
Yeah.
Did you mean it
when you said you loved me?
Of course I did.
- [sentimental music playing]
- What we had was real.
You know it.
Brady I love you.
This morning
This morning, you asked me
if I could give you a second chance.
Yeah.
[laughs] I don't know if I can.
Lark, I want to believe you.
So
I'm gonna try.
[exhales] Thank you.
Hey.
[Mike] Hey, you.
Sorry if I smell like horse.
[laughs] I thought you and Jack
were headed to Charmaine's salon.
- [chuckles]
- Does she do horse hair now?
No, she does not. Uh [chuckles]
- I ended up at the farm with Jack.
- Mmm.
It's a long story.
So, you find anything out?
Nah. Looks like he's staying clean.
I asked around,
talked to his known associates,
Brady included.
Oh! You think he could have
Oh, no, no, no. I just thought he might
might have heard something
if there was anything to hear,
which there wasn't.
Brady didn't appreciate the implication
that he might know something.
Jumped right down my throat.
I don't know.
Well, thank you
for spending your entire day on this.
Oh, hey, no need to thank me. It's my job.
I'm Team Brie.
Always.
You know what?
I don't need a menu to know what I want.
- What do you want?
- You.

Feel the days are stretching long ♪
Stretching out to way beyond ♪
Only know the things I see ♪
What you want and what you need ♪
- [Jack] Oh! Okay. Okay, come on.
- Well!
- Howdy there, cowboy.
- [Sugar huffs]
- Ah! Howdy, cowgirl.
- Wow!
You know, word on the street,
or rather around the sewing circle,
is that Sugar is too skittish to ride.
Well, not anymore.
Turns out Sugar here
is a sucker for sharing family trauma.
Brie and I spent the afternoon
comparing emotional scars.
- Talking about Adam.
- Oh.
God, that must've been hard.
You know, it wasn't.
It was kind of nice.
You know, talking about it
I think maybe helped both of us.
How about you? How was your day?
Rocky.
Uh, anyway, so, after you're done here,
I have something I want to show you.
Okay, in that case
Oop! [grunts]
- Can I have a kiss?
- Yeah.
- [Jack] Mmm.
- Mmm.
- [Jack] Oh, wow!
- I know.
Everett brought me here today.
My mom planted all of this.
What? When?
Uh, right after Chloe died.
My mom came out to find Everett
because she knew he was the only person
that could get her through it.
[sentimental music playing]
[laughs]
[Everett sighs]
What is that?
[laughs] What are you doing?
These are wildflowers.
It's my going-away present to you.
I'm going to be back to see them bloom.
I promise.
I'll be here waiting.
[sentimental music continues]
- [Sarah giggling]
- Promise.
[Sarah giggling] Yeah?
[Mel] Everett hasn't been here
since she died,
but he wanted to share it with me.
[Jack] Aww.
Yeah. He also agreed
to walk me down the aisle.
- Oh! Come on, really?
- Yeah.
Aww, that's great!
Yeah, I really got to see a side of him
I didn't know existed.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
I also got to see a side of Doc
at the rock slide that I wish I hadn't.
- Because Everett was there.
- Well, I don't know.
I Honestly, I'm not sure.
I'm gonna go check on him
before the rehearsal dinner.
[Jack] Okay.
But in the meantime, I thought that we
could pick some flowers for our wedding.
- Sure!
- Yeah?
- Let's get picking.
- Okay.
Okay.
- Oh, look at this place!
- [Mel laughing]
[door opens and closes]
I didn't expect to see you today.
Uh, yeah, I just came in to see
if you had an update on Pauline.
Yeah, she's on oxygen.
They're keeping her another night
for observation.
But prognosis is good.
Good.
Uh, what about you? How are you doing?
What does that mean?
You know, I've seen you deal with some
pretty scary medical emergencies, and
you always keep your cool.
But yesterday, you were yelling,
and short, and worried about protocol.
I had to do things by the book
because there's someone
over at Grace Valley who has it in for me.
What do you mean, "has it in for you"?
Ah, you don't have to worry about it.
You have a wedding coming up.
[scoffs] I'm still part of this practice.
Well, it's nothing.
Just, uh, focus on getting ready,
learning your vows,
and spending time with your father.
Is that what was going on yesterday?
Is this about Everett?
No.
- No, of course not.
- Okay.
Well, I know that you had
a run-in with him at the drive-in.
Oh.
And what did he tell you?
- Well, he didn't want to get into it.
- Oh. [scoffs]
But whatever it was that you said
has made him stay away.
I was trying to protect you.
Uh, from from what?
From getting to know
my only living parent?
From connecting with my mother?
You don't know what kind of man he is.
Okay, how am I supposed to know
what kind of man he is
when you're driving a wedge between us?
I didn't want to see you get hurt!
You don't have to look out for me, okay?
It's not your job. You're not my father.
Oh.
- No, no, I get it.
- I [sighs]
You're not my daughter.
You're just my nurse.
And, if I do remember correctly, you
Well, you're not even
on the schedule for today,
so what the hell are you still doing here?
