[tranquil music playing]
[exhales]
[Jack] Hey.
There she is.
- How'd it go with Doc?
- It was fine. It was great. Just fine.
- Well, you're crushing those flowers.
- Thanks, honey.
No, no, that's not a compliment.
You're literally
turning them into potpourri.
[exhales angrily] Okay, it wasn't fine.
Obviously.
Apparently, Doc is still the same stubborn
old goat he was the day that I met him.
Okay, what happened?
We got into a fight,
and he said I was just his nurse.
Well, I don't think that's true.
Uh, well, he seemed
pretty committed to it.
So, before I left, I told him
that our wedding is just for family.
And if he's just my boss,
then maybe he shouldn't be in it.
Oh! Well, I know you didn't mean that.
- I think I did.
- Mel, seriously.
If he's not at the wedding or even
the rehearsal, you're gonna regret that.
You can't come back
from something like that.
If he wants to apologize to me,
he knows where to find me.
Look, I am not giving this
another thought, okay?
This is the beginning
of our wedding weekend.
You are now my sole focus.
- And our rehearsal.
- Mm-hmm.
And I have to get these flowers
to the riverboat.
Well, remember,
you gotta introduce Joey to Everett too.
Oh my gosh.
Yes, I have to introduce Joey to Everett.
And I need to find somebody
to do Doc's reading.
- I'll do that. I'll handle that one, yeah.
- Yeah?
Thanks! See? It's fine. This is
There is no problem.
This is gonna be great. [snaps fingers]
- You, um
- I forgot the flowers.
- Yeah.
- I forgot the flowers.
Here you go.
Let me help you. There you go.
- Thanks. I love you.
- I love you.
[uplifting music playing]
[Hope on megaphone]
A little more to the left!
A little less to the left.
That lattice does not go in the barn!
It goes over by the ceremony.
About-face, people.
A little hustle wouldn't kill you, either.
At this pace,
it's gonna be a winter wedding.
[laughs] What are you doing here so early?
Rehearsal's not for a couple hours.
All right, which means we've got
a couple hours to solve a major problem.
- What are we lookin' at?
- Mel and Doc got in a fight.
Now Doc's not coming to the wedding.
- What? No!
- Yeah. Mm-hmm.
God, this meant the world to him.
What happened?
I'm not really sure, but it sounds like
it's on Doc to apologize,
so if you could please
talk some sense into him.
If talking sense into Vernon
was ever a viable option,
Mel would never have come to this town.
Then what do you suggest?
I would suggest that we meddle.
But after what happened
with the whole Charmaine letter thing,
you declared a moratorium on meddling.
All right, then I'm gonna call a momentary
un-moratorium on it, all right?
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, I'm sure!
Okay, then.
I'll go talk to Mel
and express to her how sorry he is.
You go tell Vernon how much it means
to Mel for him to be in your wedding.
- Right.
- And have him show up at rehearsal today.
All right, sure.
And if all else fails,
use your sad puppy dog face.
What? I don't have a sad puppy dog face.
You will if you want this to work.
Right.
Right. Sad puppy dog face. Sad
- [Mike] Babe?
- Mm-hmm?
Can I use your deodorant?
I left mine at the motel.
Uh, no, sir, you may not.
I don't share my deodorant.
Some things are sacred.
Okay.
Can I have an apple,
or is this a Garden of Eden situation
where those are sacred too?
[Brie laughs]
You have enough rations
for a whole platoon there.
Yeah, well,
my dad always shows up starving,
and a hungry Sheridan
is a cranky Sheridan.
After Christmas,
I just want to make sure, you know,
that my dad is not a liability for Jack.
I hear you. I'll do what I can to help.
After I use my deodorant at the motel.
Hold on, wait a minute.
Um
Why don't you leave it here?
Well, then, how will I deodorize
when I'm there?
You know, maybe
bring all your stuff here.
And
leave it.
Brie Sheridan.
[Brie laughs]
Are you asking me to move in with you?
I mean, going back and forth is silly.
And so is living in a motel forever.
Plus
you know, you look damn good in my house.
That might be because I'm happy here.
Good.
Um
[Mike] Mmm.
You should know that I
I don't share my towel, either.
You want to take it off, then?
Yes, sir. I do.
[Mike] Okay.

[Preacher] Mel.
- Preach?
- Ah.
I didn't expect to see you here so early.
Well, I didn't expect
to see you here at all.
I thought you were done with food prep
and were gonna
hand everything off to the crew.
Yeah, I have. I did. I
- Oh
- God, that is foul!
Mel!
Mel, hi! I did not see you there.
Okay, so if you two are both here,
something is going on.
Uh, did something happen to the food?
No! No.
Okay, then what's in the buckets?
[Hannah laughs] I did not think
that could happen to pork!
Melinda.
- So nice to see you.
- [Mel sighs]
Can someone
please tell me what's going on?
Okay, so the power on the boat went out,
so all the food in the fridge spoiled,
which means that pork that I was brining
in the milk for tonight is bad.
It's basically raw pork yogurt.
- [Mel] Nice.
- Hence the smell.
But I can fix it, all right? I got this.
Okay. All right, fine.
I'll see you tonight.
- [Preacher] Okay. Okay.
- Okay.
I ain't got this, ladies.
Now, we need a whole new menu right now.
Mel! Hey.
Just the bride-to-be I wanted to see.
Um, how's your big day
before the big day going?
Oh, you know, it's, um
[clicks tongue] It's going.
Uh, Doc's not coming to my wedding.
Uh, the main dish
of my rehearsal dinner has gone rancid.
So, you know, it's just not great.
Um, it sounds like
you have a lot on your plate,
and, ironically,
nothing on it at the same time.
I'm actually here
because of your fight with Vernon.
- I know you know how stubborn he can be.
- Yep.
I came to tell you
how bad he feels
about everything he said to you,
about everything he didn't say.
And what didn't he say?
- [Jack] "I'm sorry."
- She said she was sorry?
Yep. Those were her exact words.
Your fiancée, Mel Monroe,
says she's sorry?
Mm-hmm.
- [Mel] Well, that doesn't sound like him.
- [chortles] No, it does not.
Well, that just proves
how torn up she is about all this.
You're like a father to Mel.
Oh yeah, like a father who she doesn't
want at her wedding ceremony!
Well, I only said that because he said
I was nothing more than his nurse.
No! I didn't realize he said that.
Hold on.
If he didn't tell you what he said,
how could he be sorry for saying it?
Well, he couldn't, not in so many words.
Just because she didn't say it directly
doesn't mean
she didn't say it in her heart.
She wants you in our wedding, Doc.
We both do. You and Hope are family.
Yeah, I'm not so sure about that. I
What What is that?
What? That.
What are you doing with your face?
Nothing.
Hope.
Did Hope put you up to this?
Okay, Hope,
I appreciate you trying to help,
but if he wants to apologize,
he can come and apologize.
Or I'll see him at work. Okay.
If you'll excuse me, I have work.
[cell door buzzing]
To what do I owe the pleasure
of this unexpected visit?
Well, you can cut the crap, okay, Jimmy?
I know what you were up to.
Lark told me.
Everything.
The fact that you would use her,
that you would use your own daughter?
Jimmy.
[exhales] It's
It's low, even for you.
Don't lecture me, Brady.
Everything you have should have been mine.
It should go to my family.
Well, don't worry. It will.
I'll make sure of it.
You see, I'm gonna
take real good care of Lark.
And your daughter, your little girl?
I'm gonna make sure she stays far,
far away from scumbags
like you.
- [guard] Stay down!
- [Jimmy grunting]
[groans]
I'll see you later, Jimmy.
You may think
you're gonna be their savior, Brady,
but you're just a lowlife devil,
just like me!
- [guard] Get up! Let's go.
- Lowlife devil!
You're gonna get what's coming to you!
I'll make sure of it!
- [Lizzie] Hey.
- Hey.
Looks like the crib's coming along.
Sorry I doubted your assembling abilities.
That's okay. I doubted 'em too.
Should be done soon, though.
I picked up some different color palettes
for the accent wall.
You wanna weigh in?
Yeah.
Storybooks and Sweet Dreams,
Sunny Disposition, and Modern Nautical.
I think I like Sunny Disposition.
I kinda like Modern Nautical.
It's an option for sure, but
I'm giving birth to a little girl
and not a tiny sailor.
Yeah, but girls can sail.
I know girls can sail.
I know you know girls can sail.
Then why did you say that?
I don't know.
- Why don't you just decide for us?
- Because I want your opinion.
But you don't really, do you?
- Are we still talking about paint?
- I don't know.
Are we?
[huffs]
[pensive music playing]
[exhales]
[Muriel] I have to hand it to you, ladies.
I thought the veil would be too much,
but it's all going to be just perfect.
[ladies exclaim]
Jack won't be able
to take his eyes off of Mel.
[singsong] Or his hands.
Oh, love will be in the air
tomorrow night.
[chuckles]
What about you, Muriel?
How are things going with Walt Booth?
Oh, you know, slowly but surely.
The pace of your relationship
wouldn't have anything to do
with a certain doctor coming back to town?
[sighs] No, it does not, Connie.
[Jo Ellen] Um, have
Have you told Walt about your
- The biopsy?
- [Jo Ellen] Yeah.
- No.
- [Jo Ellen] Oh.
I was waiting until I had heard back.
Well, now that I have,
I guess I should say it out loud.
I do have cancer.
Oh, sweetheart.
No, please. I don't want your pity,
and I don't want your assurances.
This is just a thing I have right now.
I have hyperthyroidism.
I have hypothyroidism.
I I have gallstones.
- I also have a terrible bunion.
- I still have diabetes.
And I have irritable bowel.
[laughing]
[all laughing]
The point is,
we are women of a certain age,
and we all have our things.
But we also have each other.
Yeah, we do.
Thank you.
[Preacher] Pivoting to paella
with all this extra rice was genius,
and with a simple trip to the market,
we can pull off the best damn paella
this town has ever tasted!
Might be the first damn paella
this town has ever tasted.
What can I do to help?
Keeping in mind I have no idea
how to make paella.
You will be our shopper.
- Any problems, you call me.
- Yeah.
We are also going to need
a few carbon steel paella pans
from the culinary supply store
in Clear River.
- Got it.
- So, are you up for this?
[both] Yes, chef.
I said, "Are you up for this?"
- [both shout] Yes, chef!
- Ah! Now that is more like it!
Now, let's get this show on the road!
- Wait, what is
- [door closing]
Never mind. I'll look it up.
[Mel sighs] I mean, you'd think that Hope
would have learned her lesson
not to meddle after what happened
between the two of you.
Yeah, well,
some people never learn, right?
I mean, I'm sure she was coming
from a loving place.
[sighs deeply]
I know. I'm not mad, I just
I just wish her husband
cared as much as she does.
- What makes you so sure that he doesn't?
- He would have apologized by now.
I mean, our rehearsal's in an hour.
- Hey, guys. Have your coffees.
- [Jack] Oh!
Jack, yours is black with one sugar.
- Mel, splash of milk, spoonful of Nutella.
- Mmm, thank you.
That's the perk of getting your coffee
from a bakery on wheels.
- [Jack chuckling]
- I got one too.
[laughing] I'm so glad
you two finally met.
Yeah. And I'm glad you two met.
- [phone ringing and vibrating]
- Me too.
- Uh, I'm so sorry. Um, excuse me one sec.
- [ringing continues]
Yeah, sure.
[softly] Hi, Hope.
Listen.
No luck with Doc,
and Mel saw right through your charade.
What do you mean, "my charade"?
Well, she assumed you were the one
doing the meddling, obviously.
And I couldn't correct her,
not on our wedding weekend.
Ah, I see what you did there,
and I respect it.
If things go south,
I'm happy to take the fall.
I just told you,
things have already gone south.
Well, I'm not ready to give up
on Mel and Vernon.
I love them too much to let their pride
get in the way of their happiness.
Well, I love them too,
but they are adults.
Maybe we should just
let them make their own decisions.
But they're making bad ones!
So what do you suggest?
You got another plan?
Well, I was thinking we might need
to up the theatricality.
Okay, I don't understand
why we're moving the rehearsal
to the playhouse
when we're getting married at the farm.
Well, Hope said with all the setup,
she just wants us to be somewhere quiet
where we can focus.
Plus there was something about the time
it takes to load in giant blocks of ice.
What? Wait.
Why do we need giant blocks of ice?
Well, we don't. The ice sculptors do.
Ugh. I still don't understand
why we have to have ice sculptors.
- Well, to sculpt the ice.
- [scoffs]
Yes, Jack, I
I understand the literal function.
I just I
I'm just I'm starting to feel
like this event is getting out of hand.
Yeah. Well
I mean, that's kind of sweet,
though, right?
That the whole town's
going overboard to celebrate our love?
- [unconvincingly] Yeah.
- Right?
Come on. Everything's gonna be fine.
Remember?
[gentle music playing]
[Hope] You may now kiss the bride.
Ah-ah-ah! Not for real until showtime.
You don't wanna
burn a good one in rehearsal.
- Right.
- [laughs] Okay, so are we done, then?
Actually, I'd like to run it again
for safety.
Oh, we have a matinée at 3:00, Hope.
You said you'd be an hour, tops.
Ah, I'm a politician, June.
I say a lot of things.
Not all of them turn out to be true.
Back to one, people.
- And next time, hold hands.
- [Jack] Yep.
[Hope] And, uh, Charlie.
- Charlie, um
- [phone ringing]
I know you're just an understudy,
but this poem is emotional.
Can you try to squeeze out just one tear?
Well, I can't guarantee it,
but I'll do my best.
Just for you.
Mmm. Thank you.
So, how's it going?
[Kaia] I could not find
any fennel seed or fennel pollen.
So, is it cool
if I just get you extra fennel?
[chuckles] No, it No, it's not cool.
I need all of the stages.
I need the fennel for taste and texture,
I need the fennel seed
for depth of flavor,
and I need the fennel pollen
to brighten and garnish the dish!
Well, you lost me
around the second time you said fennel,
but I will get you all the things.
Slightly bigger problem.
There are only two lobsters here.
So, um, can you,
like, use another shellfish?
Look, just tell Roberto
I sent you, all right?
He has got a secret stash,
and he always hooks me up.
Okay.
- [Hope]starting position!
- I gotta go, all right? I believe in you.
- Oh! But, uh Mm-hmm.
- [line disconnects]
Preacher, what are you doing?
Once you land, hold your mark,
and don't move a muscle, people.
- [Sam] Shh! Don't, somebody'll hear.
- [Amelia giggling]
- What is with those two?
- [Mike] They're sleeping together.
Are you nuts?
Babe.
- Check out the body language.
- [Brie scoffs]
No, I mean, I know he couldn't be
at the wedding, but my mom is with Javi.
Mmm, not tonight, she's not.
[Sam] Are you ready to
- Hey! Uh, what you guys laughing about?
- [both clear throats]
Your father made a joke about what
a production this wedding has turned into.
Your sister's weddings
were so simple, so elegant.
- So expensive.
- [laughs]
I like how free
this one turned out to be for us.
Speaking of weddings,
what about you, Brie?
No pressure, Mike, but also some pressure.
My grandkids aren't gonna have themselves.
Mom, please,
can we just take it one step at a time?
And we are taking steps.
Yeah.
I asked, uh
I asked Mike to move in with me.
Well, that's great news!
Well, that is great news.
Although I did read an article about how
the longer you live together
before marriage,
the less likely you are
to stay married, so perhaps
So, perhaps you shouldn't be the one
giving out advice on staying married.
[Sam] That wasn't your mother's fault.
We both played a part.
But the advice is solid, Brie.
Whether you want to hear it from me
or not, you need to think ahead.
The longer you wait to get married,
the harder it could be to start a family.
Yeah, no, we all know
that biological clock is ticking, Mom.
That reminds me,
I have a watch Jack wanted to borrow.
It's in the car somewhere.
You want to help me find it?
- Mm-hmm. Yeah, I do.
- [Sam] You sure you wanna do that?
Matrimonial Mussolini might kick you out
of the ceremony for moving from your spot.
- [laughing]
- Okay.
- [Hope] I heard that.
- Cover for us!
Thank you for getting me out of there.
- Extractions are my specialty.
- [laughs]
Hey, June, I got here
as quick as I could. Hey
Now, where
- Doc, what are you doing here?
- I, uh
The theater manager
said there was a medical emergency.
What are you all doing here?
Ugh, Hope changed the rehearsal,
and there is no emergency.
Yes, there is.
It's just not a medical one.
- [sighs]
- Can I see you two in here for a second?
Jack, you too.
Yep.
[pensive music playing]
The emergency is
that you two are not speaking.
And it's threatening to put a cloud
over the best day of Mel and Jack's life.
And I know
if you just talk it out, you'll
you'll see how ridiculous this is!
- It's her fault.
- Tell him that.
It's like you're trying
to make my point for me.
Listen, you care for one another.
There is no way you can stand here
and see the pain in each other's eyes
and still be mad.
Nothing is more important than all of us
sharing this special moment.
Well, Mel says she's got plenty of people
to share her heart
and her wedding program with.
And she doesn't need me.
Do you really hate my father so much
that you can't get past
whatever it is that he did for me?
Is that what this is all about?
- Mel, if you knew
- I don't know!
I don't know,
because neither of you will talk about it.
It doesn't even matter.
You know what matters?
The first time I got married,
my dad was not at my wedding.
And this time,
I thought I would get to have two.
[phone ringing]
But I guess I was wrong.
[ringing continues]
[somber music playing]
[sighs] Phil?
Hey, is everything okay with Marley?
Okay, just
just stay calm and I'll be there
I'll be there soon.
[line disconnects]
Well, now I have
an actual emergency to tend to.
Hope, thank you
Thank you for trying.
It's nice to know that somebody is.
[somber music continues]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[bright music playing]
[door opens]
- Can we talk for a sec?
- Sure.
I don't know how you expect me
to prepare for having a baby
without preparing for her future.
And for your future without me.
How do you expect me
to think about that right now, Denny?
We have so much to worry about. I can't
I can't think about the fact
that I'm gonna outlive you.
I certainly can't think about
outliving our little girl.
Every time I do, I just
[sighs] I can't breathe. I can't
[stifling tears] I can't move.
And, honestly, I
I don't want to test her.
Because I'm in no rush
to confirm my worst fears might come true.
[tensely] I just want to help you.
I just want to help you while
I'm still here, while I'm still alive.
I'm I'm just being realistic!
Well, our reality sucks, Denny,
and you can't help me!
Look, I haven't said this to you before
because I've been trying to be strong,
but, seriously,
even if we save up money,
even if we have a plan,
it doesn't change
how the story ends, does it?
We have zero control.
Zero.
So, please,
if you want to help me, just accept that
and figure out a way to be strong too.
Because it's one thing for you
to freak me out about all this,
but I will not let you
freak out our daughter.
[crying] Now, if you'll excuse me,
it's been almost 45 minutes
since I've eaten, so I'm starving.
Wait!
You want mac and cheese?
With hot dogs?
And don't tell me that's bad for the baby,
because if you cook them through,
it's fine.
I'll make enough for three.
[gentle music playing]
[exhales deeply]
[sighs, sniffles]
[Phil] I think something's wrong.
[anxiously] I read on the internet about
some woman who had intense cramping, and
Phil, we don't know
that this is related to that at all.
Yeah, but it could be some sort
of delayed reaction to the rock slide.
- You okay?
- [Phil] Internal bleeding from the airbag?
- Uh, that's highly unlikely, okay?
- [Marley wincing]
- Are you having any other symptoms?
- Uh, no.
It's just a pain in my stomach
and some lower back pain.
Why don't we do an ultrasound
to check on baby?
- Thank you.
- [Mel] Okay? Yeah.
- Excuse me. Thank you.
- Yeah.
- [laughs] Hey. What are we doing here?
- You'll see.
All right.
- Where are you taking me?
- Just wait.
Is that the shop I was looking at online?
I know you gave it up 'cause you were
trying to help my mom, but
I really think it's perfect for you.
Yeah, well, it's too late now.
Someone leased it.
I know.
- [laughs]
- You did?
[chuckles softly]
I used the money I saved
working at the B&B
to pay your first month
and your security, so
What?
I hope you still want the shop
'cause I'm kind of your biggest investor.
[both chuckle lightly]
God.
You didn't have to do this.
I know.
I wanted to.
I messed up, and I just want
to prove to you that you can trust me,
and that I'm invested in your dreams.
[contented music playing]
Thank you.
[sighs]
- I've seen you here over the years.
- Really?
I've never seen you.
I kept my distance out of respect for you.
I don't need you to like me, Vernon,
but I do need you to show up
and support my daughter.
Even if I'm there.
- Oh, don't you think I want that too?
- I don't know what you want.
You're the one who's held a grudge.
Well, I'm very glad that you
found a way to forgive yourself
for what happened that night, but, uh
I sure have not.
Forgiven me or yourself?
[exhales]
Had I been by Jordan's side that night
[exhales]
when he took a turn, and
I could have saved his life.
But instead I was off saving yours,
and you had the gall,
you had the nerve to say to me
"I wish you'd let me die."
Yeah.
I remember.
What I did that night was stupid.
And it was selfish.
But Jordan dying during the hours
while you were gone wasn't my fault.
It wasn't yours, either.
So, if you can't forgive me, fine.
But it's high time you forgive yourself.
What the hell were you thinking?
Getting drunk, going out on a joyride?
It wasn't a joyride.
I didn't swerve off the road, Vernon.
[sighs]
I drove into that tree on purpose.
I wanted to die.
Why
Why would you want that?
[sighs deeply]
After Sarah died, I was lost.
Part of me believed
I had something worth living for.
Till the day I called Mel's father
and told him I wanted to be in her life.
Mel had just lost her mom,
and he thought
losing the only father she'd ever known
would be too much for her to take,
and I knew he was right.
I was devastated losing Sarah.
But when I lost the chance
of ever knowing Mel
[breathes deeply]
it shattered me. I wanted out.
If I had known then
what was in store for me today
I would've thanked you for saving my life.
Because of what you did that night,
I got to meet my daughter.
Because of you,
I get to be her father now.
Vernon you saved me in my darkest hour.
Giving Mel a job at your clinic and
taking her under your wing
did the same thing for her.
So I'll say now
what I should have said then.
Thank you.
[exhales]
Thank you.
[sentimental music playing]
Okay. So, the good news is
is you're fine. Your baby is fine.
[Marley exclaims]
- [Phil sighs]
- It's just gas.
- [laughing] Oh
- Yes.
You know, eating Indian food in New York
while you're pregnant is risky,
but eating it in Clear River
is really tempting fate.
So, I am going to go see
if we have any apple cider vinegar
so we can try to relieve this naturally.
Oh, please, God, yes.
It feels like I'm going into labor.
- Uh
- She's not! She's fine.
Thank you.
Can I get some water?
Yeah, sure. Come with me.
The, uh, water's in the fridge.
Actually, I, um
[hesitatingly] I just wanted
to apologize for freaking out.
[Mel] Oh.
I can't believe how attached I am,
and it's not even mine.
I didn't expect to love the baby
like this already, you know?
Yeah, well, I mean, it
it makes perfect sense.
You and Darla
have wanted this for a long time.
Yeah. I guess once you decide
to give your love,
even if it's not your biological child,
feelings can be
just as powerful, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
Mmm.
[sighs contentedly]
[chuckles softly]
I understand how you feel.
I just wish there was more
I could do for you.
I wish there was a book called
"What to Expect When You're Expecting
A Catastrophic Demise."
[Denny chuckling]
Is it okay to laugh about it?
I hope so.
I have to.
Otherwise, it's all too dark.
You know,
there's no right way to handle this.
But alone is definitely the wrong way.
And that's why
I want to know if she has it.
By the time she's old enough to decide
whether to get tested, I might be gone.
Like my mom was.
And I would have given anything to know
how she was able to be so strong.
When I found out I had HD
I never felt more alone in my entire life.
And I never want our daughter
to feel that way.
I'm sorry you felt so alone.
But you're not alone now.
And she won't be either.
I know her having me is not the same
as having someone who really understands.
I hope you know I don't want
our daughter to feel that way either.
I know.
I know we both just want to protect her.
Yeah.
[somber music playing]
All right.
Let's test her.
Are you sure?
But only after we get to know her, okay?
Because no matter what
she's gonna be more than a disease.
Just like you are.
And I want to make sure
she knows that first.
And that we do too.
She's so lucky you're her mom.
Thanks.
I agree. [chuckles]

this was gonna be a beautiful night?
[Jack] Well, you look stunning. Thank you.
Oh, thank you.
- Hey.
- [Preacher] Hey.
- [Hope] This is absolutely gorgeous.
- [Jack] To us.
- [Mel] Aww! Thank you.
- [Jack] To the weekend.
Cheers.
[Jack] Um
- I have to admit something.
- Mm-hmm.
Is it that you were helping Hope
with her little scheme?
- How'd you know that?
- 'Cause I can read you like a book.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm sorry.
- No, thank you for trying.
It really does feel
wrong that Doc's gonna miss this.
Well, that only took you
about nine hours to admit.
I think that's some kind of record.
It's progress.
Yeah, look at us growing together.
It was partially my fault, though.
And I may have
taken his feelings for granted.
[captain on PA] Ladies and gentlemen,
the boat's about to push off the dock.
So, everyone find your seats.
Dinner will begin shortly.
[Jack] Here we go.
- [Mel] Okie-doke.
- Okay.
- Allow me, Ms. Monroe.
- Oh!
You know, that might be
the last time you ever call me that.
- Oh, you're right.
- [Doc] Hey, hey, hey!
Hold the boat!
I hear there's an emergency!

I'm just darn thankful to be here tonight.
But most of all, I'm thrilled to see
the two of you becoming one.
In some ways,
it feels like you've always been together.
And, Jack,
you are a pillar of our community,
and a leader in times of crisis.
And, Mel,
Jack could not have found a more fitting
and worthy a partner than he did in you.
Well, that's true.
You know,
when I spoke to your father earlier
And, yes, we did speak.
he reminded me
how much you had gone through
before you came to our town.
And he insinuated that I was the one
who looked out for you
when you arrived here.
But the truth of the matter is,
you were the one who looked after me.
I needed you.
Even if it took me
a little time to see it.
- [Mel] Aw.
- [Doc laughs]
[laughs]
But, uh, I promise you
that I will always be there for you.
So, here is to second chances,

I love you both so very much.

Listen, I'm sorry.
I I really didn't mean
to hurt your feelings
when I uninvited you
to walk me down the aisle.
Yeah. Yeah, well
I guess I was just too proud
to tell you how I really felt.
I'd like to say
I'll be more humble next time, but
[Mel] Mmm.
But you can't teach old goats new tricks?
- If anybody can, uh, it'd be you.
- [both chuckle]
- Yeah.
- All right.
[Mel chuckling]
[sentimental music playing]
What are we doing here at night?
I thought we could spend some time
getting to know our daughter.
Do you know how to use that thing?
We are about to find out.
[hopeful music plays]
[Lizzie] What should we name her?
Something nautical.
Let's make a list.
Figure it out together.
We could do that.
Or
we could name her after your mom.

[captain on PA] Ladies and gentlemen,
we are five minutes from shore,

[Mel] Aww!
This is such an amazing day.
I don't want to leave.
Well, we kind of have to, babe.
We are getting married tomorrow.
Don't forget.

- Thank you.
So, after-party at my place?

I have to go get the kids.
They're at Lydie's. Big day tomorrow.
- Mom, what about you? You gonna come?
- Oh no. Not me.
No, I need my beauty rest.
Good night, everyone.
[Jack] See ya.
Dad?
No. I'll leave it to you kids.
Good night, honey.

So, how about you two?
Uh, we we would.
There's just something
I kinda wanted to do together

Oh! Okay, then. I'm gonna go with him.
- Night.
- Good night.
- Okay, ew. Bye.
- [Preacher] See you.
- [Jack] Did you say "Ew"?
- Let's go party. You're my brother.
[all laughing]
I can't believe you did this.
It's really great.
You, uh, got any other hidden talents
you want to share with me?
- [Lark laughs] No.
- No?
I can honestly say you know
everything there is to know about me now.
Uh
Uh, Hazel's at a sleepover.
[laughs] Um
Tomorrow is a big day
with the wedding and everything.
- So I just think, uh
- Yeah.
And speaking of the wedding,
I know the kid wanted to go,
so if you're okay with,
you know, where we are,
maybe we could all go together.
I'd love that.
And Hazel will be thrilled.
She's already picked out your earrings.
- So
- Oh, has she?
Well, not the purple ones. Those hurt.
- Good night.
- Night.

Where do you keep your board games?
[Brie] Uh, in the guest room.
[whispers] You think
your dad's already asleep?
Oh yeah.
That man falls asleep in an instant.
I'm pretty sure he slept through
most of our graduations.
[whispers] All right.
I'll sneak in. Grab one.
Stealth.

- [Amelia sputtering] Oh! Mike?

[Sam] It's not polite to stare, Mike.
- Avert your eyes.
- [Amelia laughs] Stop. Just pass
Oh my God.
[Amelia chuckling] Pass me the sheet.
[Brie breathes deeply]
I am so sorry. You were right.
Yeah, I was. Nothing gets by me.
- Can we get out of here? Okay.
- Yeah.
