Can we get some chocolate?
Ha! I don't know about that.
I can barely keep up with you
as it is.
Let's channel
some of that energy
into helping me
start our garden.
What about these cedars?
Oh...
yeah, sure, Justin.
Let's get two of them.
One for the main garden
and one for
the guesthouse garden.
Ahh! The "guest" garden.
How could I forget?
Let's start
a wee bit smaller, my boy.
I concur.
All good things take time
after all, Mumsy.
"Mumsy"?
- Ooh! You're just so...
- Mom, we're in public!
Ooh, but you're just so lovable!
Mm!
Lovable enough to get a dog?
Oh, ho! Good one!
It would not be
a day in the life of Justin
without the "D-O-G" word
being mentioned
at least half a dozen times.
You literally work
at a vet's office.
Don't rescues come through
all the time?
Let's focus on bulbs today.
Okay?
Someday, buddy. Someday.
Just... not today. Okay?
Let's toodley-doo these
back to our estate!
"Toodley-doo," Mom?
Grab a bag of dirt.
It's that same number.
I'll call them back.
Tonight, it is you and me.
Anybody home?
I forgot about Cassie.
Oh, there you are!
Whatcha doing?
We gotta be at the restaurant
in T-minus 30 minutes.
Sorry, I completely forgot.
Justin and I were doing
a little pre-spring
gardening session.
You "forgot"?
It's Galentine's!
But, hey, I mean, who am I
to interrupt
mother-son bonding time?
Haven't you two done Galentine's
every single year
since high school?
That means it's tradition.
You raised a smart boy.
But we still have...
I see what this is.
You want me to leave
so you can have
the house to yourself.
I don't know if
this whole fresh-dirt look
is gonna fly at the restaurant,
so why don't you go get changed?
I'll let them know
we'll be ten minutes late.
Would you maybe plant
the last few bulbs
and clean up
a little bit, please?
Aye-aye, Mom.
Thank you!
Okay. Ten minutes.
Nice!
Are you still getting
those phone calls?
Yep.
They're breathing down my neck.
How about we do
double Galentine's next year,
when I have my financial
situation sorted out?
How about I just cover you,
no questions asked?
You're gonna spend tonight
with people who love you.
Okay? You deserve that.
You know they're gonna
ask how I'm doing and...
what am I gonna say?
That I'm a nearly-broke divorcee
who hasn't been on a decent date
since Alan left?
That I've been looking
for a second job for months,
and I haven't even gotten
a single interview?
When did you become this person?
What person?
A Debbie Downer.
Ho, ho!
Excuse me?
I should ground you for that!
I mean, I was gonna say
"Dawnie Downer," but, yeah...
we've always relied on you
to be the positive one.
If anyone needs me,
I'll be eating leftover pizza.
You should go, it'll be fun.
Hi, it's Dawn.
Sorry I missed your call.
Please leave me a message.
Oh... Dawn DeVries.
I know you're there.
Here's the up-to-date
foreclosure files, Ben.
I still got one more to wrap up.
DeVries...
The one you haven't reviewed.
She's 120 days behind,
and still avoiding me
like the plague.
Have we already sent out
the notice-of-foreclosure
letter?
I've got a stamp on it.
It'll go out on Monday.
And you've tried
every other option?
Because you know my philosophy.
I know...
"Benevolent Ben."
"Give every person
the benefit of the doubt."
She's re-financed
her debt twice,
but it's only growing,
and it's kind of hard
to talk to someone
who won't pick up the phone.
I can't say you're the voice
I'd wanna hear
on the other end of the line either.
Ouch.
No! No, no, no.
You're great!
It's the situation.
You know what I mean.
Yeah, I do.
Well, I'm done for the day.
You right behind me?
Uh... no, I've got
another email to send.
- Okay.
- Oh! Hey.
Great work today.
Thanks, Ben.
You too.
Great work ruining lives.
Okay.
So I told the girls we're gonna
be a few minutes late
and we are on our way.
Oh...
sweetie, you're gonna
get through this.
It's...
really, really bad.
I haven't been able to recover
from Alan's bad investments,
then the car broke down,
and insurance and...
house payments...
I don't even know how many
of those I've missed.
The debt counselor
I've been seeing
is saying that...
bankruptcy
might be the only way out.
Alan always said
I wouldn't be able to make it
without him.
No. No-no-no.
Remind me...
What were you voted
in our senior year?
"Most optimistic."
Where did she go?
I miss her.
I miss her, too!
Okay, well, you heard your son.
Come out with us girls.
Let us help you
get that smile back.
Come on, even if
it's just for one night!
There you go!
That's better.
Leaving in two!
Are you ready?
I'll be right down.
Mm!
Do you remember these?
Oh, wow!
Yes. You couldn't stop
making those in high school.
What did you call them again?
"Blessing bracelets."
Oh, yeah.
You find one good thing
God has blessed you with
for each bead.
Right.
Here, let me try.
Oh, let's see...
um...
my Galentine's gals.
My job at the church choir.
A hot cup of cocoa
on a chilly day.
Ooh!
And...
uh, the first bloom of spring.
Four beads, four blessings.
Alan thought they were silly.
It's tough to see you struggle,
tch, but...
counting a blessing or two...
it might be
a good way to start.
Okay.
We should never have
stopped making these.
Now we can start
counting our blessings again.
You're a blessing, my friend.
Let's go celebrate friendship.
Ooh, what's this?
From my lips to...
It's a piece of jewelry, Cassie!
It's not
a magical lamp with a genie.
Okay, the gals are waiting.
They need help.
- After you.
- Thank you.
Oh, wow.
It looks great.
Um...
I'm gonna meet you at the table.
Okay?
Yeah, okay.
Hey.
Hi, guys!
Ahem. Excuse me, sir?
I saw the sign in the window
and I'm wondering
who I can speak with
about the position?
Oh. Uh, that would be
the owner, Norm.
Oh. I, um, I don't have
my resume on me right now,
but I'm wondering
if you could tell him, um...
My name is Dawn Spencer,
and, uh...
I would really love
to be a waitress here.
Really?
This restaurant has always
been about breaking bread,
and sharing laughs,
and telling stories...
and I could really use the joy
of that connection in my life.
If you could please tell Norm
that he won't find
a harder-working,
more people-centered person
than I am, and...
I was voted "Most Optimistic"
my senior year of high school.
Norm Dobbins,
owner of this establishment.
Nice to meet you.
Sorry, what?
Well, obviously,
you've got passion...
Passion we need.
When could you start?
- To our fearless...
- and optimistic!
Yes! And incredibly optimistic
friend, Dawn,
for successfully securing
her second job.
- To Dawn.
- To Dawn!
I start tomorrow!
I mean,
I can't remember the last time
I was this happy
on Valentine's Day.
Aww!
And to think, he was the owner.
It was just
a blessing in disguise, I guess.
Well, bravo, lady. Bravo!
And on that note...
You know what time it is?
Chocolate?
- Chocolate...
- Chocolate.
Hey, Mom.
So...
I've got great news.
You're getting me a dog?
You're k*lling me, kid!
No! Not a dog.
Better.
I got... a job.
I got a job!
A second job!
- She's got a job!
- I got a job!
A second job!
Isn't that amazing?
That's amazing, Mom!
Why is that amazing?
Buddy!
It's amazing because...
your mom needed
a little more help,
and this is
exactly what I needed.
So this means you'll be going
to Grandma and Grandpa's
a few nights after school.
I can be alone
on a Monday night...
but not after school?
Well, I would just feel better
knowing that you had
a decent meal in you,
and someone to help you
with homework.
You want Grandpa
to help me with my homework?
Good point.
Grandma will help.
This is it.
This is the turning point.
Soon, we'll be
able to get a third garden
for our second guesthouse,
my boy.
Why the long face?
Grandma and Grandpa...
I love visiting them.
They just... aren't you.
Oh, buddy.
I promise,
this won't be for long.
Yes, we may have
a little less time together
for a short while, but...
this will allow us
so many more adventures
in the long run.
You know...
a dog would really help.
I'll need a third job for that.
For my second job.
Yes. Mom, I start today.
After work at the vet's office.
Justin will be heading over
after school,
around 4:00.
Your father and I love
spending time with Justin.
It'll be great.
So, now, remember...
Homework before video games.
And pizza only once a week. Yes.
We did raise you,
if you remember.
Do you really need
to work this hard?
For now, yes, I do.
You know, if you need some help,
your father and I
are happy to give you...
No. Mom, no.
Please, you've done
enough already.
Watching Justin
is a huge help, thank you.
Of course.
Your father and I are
holding you in our prayers.
It'll turn around.
Oh, hang on.
Mom, I have to take
this other call.
It's important, but...
thank you very, very much.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hello?
Yes, this is Dawn Spencer.
Uh, used to be DeVries.
Hi, Jordana.
Yes, I've seen all your calls.
I'm sorry, I, um...
I just needed a plan,
but I have
some really, really good news.
I got a second...
Wait. Um, a letter is coming?
A letter for what?
Dawn?
Dawn?
Don't you think you should
give Ms. Whitson
little Toby back?
Hmm?
Little Toby, dear.
Ms. Whitson's dog?
Oh, my gosh.
I'm so sorry.
Yes, of course.
Oh... come here. Oh.
Ohh...
And weren't you saying
that Toby did...?
Great!
He was great.
He took his sh*ts like a man.
Oh!
One who doesn't run away
when the going gets tough.
Oh...
Thank you.
Oh, Mummy's so proud of you!
What a good boy.
Are you all right, dear?
I'm sorry, Greta.
I'm just a little bit out of it.
Well, is there anything
I can do?
No, thank you.
I don't know
what needs to be turned around,
but if anyone can do it,
I'm sure it's you.
- I'm really gonna try.
- No "try"...
do.
Did you just Yoda me, Greta?
Lolly. Lol... Lolly!
Lolly, heel!
Lolly, heel!
Heel. Sit, Lolly!
Lolly! Lolly!
- Oh.
- I'm sorry.
She's quite the kisser there.
So much energy. I don't know
how to harness it sometimes.
Nice to meet you, Lolly!
It's okay.
Sometimes, dogs like Lolly,
who have boundless energy,
have owners who can...
Let's get her checked in.
Come on, Lolly!
Let's go.
We'll take Exam Room One.
Oh, sorry.
Excuse me. Come on.
Lolly's dad,
you can come with us.
Come on.
Lolly's new to our system?
Yeah. We just moved
to the neighborhood.
Oh. Well, welcome.
Thank you.
You picked
a great time of year to move.
The lilies that line Main Street
always bloom
right around Easter.
It's beautiful.
Let me guess...
You're here for ear scratching?
Yeah!
Hmm.
How'd you know that?
You're good at this.
No, I just noticed earlier,
she was scratching her ears
and they're a little bit red.
We will get her feeling
more comfortable in no time.
So, how long have
you been working with animals?
Just a few years.
She's very sweet.
Don't let her fool you.
She may be sweet in public,
but I can't tell you
how many shoes she's chewed up.
It's like she's always running
on four cups of doggie coffee,
or something.
Has she done any training?
This is amazing.
She's never this calm
with anyone.
And, yeah, believe it or not,
she has had training,
but I think she goes to daycare
and she learns new tricks
from old dogs.
Oh.
So, uh... excuse me...
You can teach a new dog...
Old tricks!
Yeah, I suppose you can.
That's right.
Well, there is a dog park
on 7th and Washington.
Maybe you could run her there?
Well, I'd rather just pay you
to come over
and scratch her ears.
That was weird! I'm sorry.
I don't know why I said that.
It's not weird.
It's just my ear-scratching rate
is a little steep.
Dr. Sims will be in
at any moment.
You stay put.
You too, Lolly.
Okay. So, next up, we have
Xena the German Shepherd.
She's coming in
for her annual sh*ts?
Yup.
Oh, Mr. Preston just called
to say they're running
a little late.
Allergies!
Excuse me?
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Oh!
- Allergies...
The doctor said it was allergies
to a ragweed local to the area.
- Oh.
- Just a few drops
under the ears,
should clear up in no time.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
Can I ask you a quick question?
Well, technically, you just did.
Heh. Okay.
A second quick question?
Yeah. Of course.
You know that dog park
you mentioned earlier?
Yes.
I was wondering if maybe
you'd like to join me there.
To help with Lolly?
No, not exactly.
I was wondering
if you'd like to go
on a little...
doggie date.
Oh...
uh, I wish I could.
I've just got... I've got
a lot going on right now,
and, um, so...
Yeah.
It probably isn't a great time,
but, um, thank you for asking.
Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
Phew! I mean...
- Whew!
- Because, you know, I...
I couldn't go either,
I am way too busy.
Oh!
I don't have time for
a doggie date...
- Perfect.
- or a normal date.
Great. So, okay,
well, then it's settled.
- Totally settled.
- Yes.
Great. Okay.
I'll see you later.
Nice to meet you, Lolly's dad.
Oh, I'm... I'm Ben, by the way.
Dawn.
Okay! I...
will see you around.
- Okay.
- Come on, Lolly.
What?
It's been a while.
Too long.
I wish it were as simple
as using life as an excuse.
It's really hard right now.
I'm anxious about my new job.
And I am so scared
to lose the house.
Help me focus
on my many blessings
during this time of uncertainty.
I am so grateful for everything
that you've given me,
and I only ask
that I hear your guidance.
Point me in the right direction.
Guess you'll have to show me
where that is another time.
I don't wanna be late
for my first shift.
Thanks, sweetheart.
Always thank your cooks.
If the cooks are happy,
the food comes out quicker.
If the food comes out quicker,
the customers are happier.
And if the customers
are happier,
then I get a bigger tip.
And if I get a bigger tip...
You're happy.
The circle of restaurant life.
Here we go!
Roasted chicken special
and maple-glazed salmon.
And two pastas.
All you lovebirds, enjoy.
Now, if you're great,
they're great,
and then the tips are...
Great. Well, I need them
to be really great, really fast.
Any tips?
Tips on tips?
I can tell you're a sweetheart,
so I'm going to give you...
the secret sauce
to Flancy's Server Success,
but you gotta make it your own.
Please. I'm all ears.
Well...
if you wanna get
a really great tip,
I like to give diners a little
something extra to enjoy.
Mints...
for the adults,
butterscotches for the kids.
It's that simple?
It's that simple!
Of course, I pay for it myself,
but it comes back ten-fold.
People really respond
to a little bit of generosity
and a personal touch.
That sounds easy enough,
but I wouldn't know
what to give.
That, my dear, is up to you...
but it's less about
what it costs
and more about what it means.
But hands off the mints
and the butterscotches...
Those are mine.
Come on, follow me.
The shrimp cocktail... didn't
we get that the last time?
That was good.
Happy Valentine's Day
to this lovely family.
My name is Flancy,
and this is Dawn.
She'll be shadowing me tonight.
Hi, everyone.
Hi, Lolly's Dad.
Hi.
It's still "Ben."
Right.
These are Lolly's grandparents.
This is Rox and Vern.
Welcome, Ben,
and Lolly's grandparents.
You know this young man?
- Well, we met today.
- Oh!
- It's nice to see you again.
- Yes, you too.
A happy coincidence.
My parents and I...
We love this place.
We kind of have a tradition.
Every Valentine's Day,
if I don't have a date, uh...
Uh, we like, uh...
I think it's great
that you're here,
and we will take
good care of you.
Drinks?
- House white.
- A glass of red.
I bet you want a beer.
Yes! I would love a beer.
Uh, any recommendations?
I'm gonna surprise you.
Great.
We'll be back with those drinks.
Well, that young lady
seems lovely.
Dawn? Yes.
Uh, she's great, yeah.
She works at the vet as well.
I was there today with Lolly.
She was so patient with her,
and you know how Lolly can be.
You should ask her out.
Truth be told,
I did ask her out today
at the vet.
- And?
- And...
she said she was busy, so...
That's that.
Well, maybe you should
take her word for it
as opposed to thinking
you're not worthy.
I don't know.
Maybe I should ask Flancy out,
see what she says.
I already got a ring, honey,
but I appreciate the compliment.
A local pilsner.
Pilsner?
Thank you, that's my favorite.
Uh, cheers.
Cheers.
That mint was a nice touch.
I'm gonna catch up
with you guys.
Just give me a sec, okay?
Five-star service,
if I do say so myself.
Well, that's good to hear
on my first night.
This is your first night?
Wow, you're a natural.
Well, I hope so.
Oh. There was something
I, um, wanted to ask you.
Sure.
But remember, I'm busy.
Oh...
Right. Of course.
I was wondering if maybe
you wanted a dog-walker.
Someone to take Lolly
to the park
to help her burn off
all that extra energy.
Don't you work hard enough?
Oh! Not... not me.
My son, Justin.
He really wants a dog,
and it's not the right time,
and I was thinking
that maybe he could
help with Lolly,
and that would help him,
and it would be a win-win.
Right. Is he as good with dogs
as you are?
Well, you know, the apple
doesn't fall far from the tree
with the dog from the... bone
from the... doghouse?
Okay, yeah,
I think that's a great idea.
Thank you.
I will tell him tonight.
- He'll be thrilled.
- Absolutely.
Tell him to give me a call...
and we can set up a schedule.
I look forward to meeting him.
Perfect. Thank you.
Oh, and just so you know...
I'm kind of hoping
that he's going to see
how much work it takes
to have a dog.
- The words of a mother.
- Mm-hmm.
A good mother,
by the looks of it.
Okay.
Don't lose that number.
Oh, I won't.
I promise.
- Hey.
- Oh, hey. Whoa.
Just a quick heads up...
The DeVries letter
was sent a few days ago.
Uh, the...
the Divincenzo Or DiBlase?
"DeVries."
- DeVries?
- Devries. Anyway,
I don't know how
she's gonna make it.
Foreclosure's set
for end of first quarter,
just after Easter.
But she did finally
make contact, actually.
I'm supposed to meet
with her now.
Well, did you offer
to reinstate the loan,
or what about bankruptcy?
That's a last resort.
But she would keep her home.
There are multiple lines
of credit,
overdrafts,
a car loan that she has skipped
several payments on.
Look...
being in this deep,
she's gotta be overwhelmed,
so go easy on her.
And reassurance is good.
You know, I can't remember
the last time
you smiled at work.
Well, for us,
this is all just a stack
of papers,
but for people like Devries,
it's their whole lives.
You know as well as I do
that if we took our jobs personally,
we would all quit... day one.
Yeah, you're right.
And I have a meeting
with some long-time clients.
Time for me to tell them
about foreclosure.
Not personal... business.
Right.
For my health.
For the strength
to go to this meeting.
For the car I drove here.
And for putting Ben
in my path again last night.
- Ms. DeVries?
- Yes.
Hi. It's nice to meet you.
Please, follow me.
Ms. DeVries...
Actually, it's Spencer.
I stopped using my married name.
"Dawn" is best.
Well, Dawn is easy.
Now, you said you had
some encouraging news?
I do.
I got a second job.
Okay. What is this other job?
I'm waitressing evenings
at the River Rapids Cafe.
With the extra hours and tips,
I should be able
to make a dent in the debt.
You received our letter, right?
Yes, I did.
And I know it'll take
more than a few good shifts
at the restaurant.
Here...
is a check in good faith
to start.
Thank you for this.
Dawn...
trust me,
this is the worst part
of my job,
but we are under
strict guidelines at the bank.
And... And just being frank,
it's gonna take
a lot more than this...
to turn around your foreclosure.
I-I understand, but I...
I have hope.
Mom, I taught Lolly to "sit"
and "stay" on our first day.
Impressive!
So...
now you know how great
I'll be with my own dog.
After a single one-hour session?
Nice try, bud.
Although, I do think
you may have
a future career in sales.
Like Dad?
Well...
you do have his charm
and persistence.
I miss him.
I know, buddy.
I haven't seen him in forever.
Well, he's got a lot going on.
Yeah... I guess.
Why did he leave?
Well...
your dad tried his best,
but he was having a hard time,
and, uh, he had to leave
to figure some things out.
But I want you to know
he always has,
and he always will love you...
no matter what.
Maybe he just needed a dog
to make him happy.
Oh, boy, you're relentless!
Yeah, maybe...
Maybe a dog would have helped.
What are these?
Blessing bracelets.
Each bead is a chance
to say something
you're grateful for,
and I had a bunch
of leftover supplies,
so I was thinking
I could
give them to customers
at the restaurant...
A little personal touch.
Mostly, I think
it might make people smile.
I like to see you smile, too.
- Can I give it a try?
- Yeah, of course.
Video games.
Mm-hmm.
My first walk with Lolly.
Pizza.
Oh... definitely pizza.
That my mom is thinking
about getting me a dog.
Nice try.
Well, Mumsy...
if I do say so, I'm starting
to feel a smidge better already.
Oh!
Well, that is amazing news,
young chap.
Shall we tally-hoo?
Can you bring that? Thank you.
Yeah.
Whenever you're ready,
and that's just a little
something from me to you.
Anything else, ma'am?
No, just the check.
And that's a little something
extra from me.
I-I... I don't wear jewelry.
Well, you don't have to wear it.
Each bead represents
a blessing you can count.
Whether you're having a bad day
or a good one,
it's just a little reminder.
Thank you.
First time with Pearl, huh?
I couldn't get
the slightest smile out of her.
Yeah, she used to come in here
every single week
with her husband.
And now it's just Pearl.
He passed about six months ago.
Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
Yeah.
So... she's just hurtin'.
It's nothing personal.
Forgiveness.
How about for today...
can you be with Justin?
I know he misses his Dad.
Alan has been gone so long,
and it seems like, lately,
Justin is losing hope.
Like I did.
But forgiveness?
Hmm?
That's your solution
for the mess Alan left me in?
My trust, my heart, my family...
all broken.
Um, why don't you guys
get started warming up,
and I'll be with you
in just a sec, okay?
It is so good
to see you here again.
It doesn't hurt, does it?
Oh, I've been so inconsistent
with the weekly services.
I just can't find time.
I have a feeling He understands.
Hey.
I'm still wearing the bracelet.
Do you remember
how we got started with these
in junior year?
Of course I do.
You remember?
Mm-hmm.
I was going through
that awful breakup.
I called you, crying.
Mm-hmm.
And you came over.
Yeah.
We ate a lot of ice cream.
Whew, yeah.
And we made bracelets all night.
Still wearing 'em
after all these years.
I mean, if they helped us
through a hard time
when we were 17,
why not at any age?
Why not at any age?
Justin's already
so great with Lolly
only after a couple days.
He's gonna have her
doing back-flips by Easter.
Well, with that kid,
anything's possible.
Spending time with Lolly
has been great for Justin.
Thank you
for letting him help out.
Of course.
Hey, can I ask you something?
You can always ask me something,
I just might not always answer.
Is...
Is Justin's dad around?
'Cause Justin mentioned him
a few times,
and I didn't wanna dig
any deeper, but...
just curious.
He's here and there.
Um... he hasn't
surfaced in a while.
Uh...
he texts
to let us know he's okay
and to check in on Justin,
but he left after the divorce,
and we haven't seen him
in person since.
How do you feel about that?
Jury's still out.
Justin really loves his dad,
and I know his dad loves him.
It's complicated.
That is hard.
Yeah, it was. Thanks.
Okay, now I get to ask you
a question.
Ah.
Well...
you can ask,
but I may not answer.
Oh. Touch.
Have you ever been married?
Uh...
yes.
Married to my job.
Mm.
Currently seeking
a separation, I think.
What do you do?
I work in finance,
and, uh...
on a beautiful day like this,
with a beautiful...
new friend,
I'd rather talk about something
way more interesting.
Like...
that piece of bling
on your wrist.
What is that? It's...
I actually just started
wearing it again.
It's something
I came up with in high school.
I use it to count my blessings...
Things that I'm grateful for.
A blessing per bead.
Does that sound silly to you?
Lolly.
My mom.
My dad.
And...
new friendships.
It's not silly at all.
So, does it work
for new blessings every day,
or is it...?
Yeah.
You can do as many as you want.
Ho, ho, ho!
Your son is incredible.
He sure is.
You know, you were right
about that whole...
doghouse and the bone...
One doesn't fall far
from the other.
Am I the doghouse?
Well, you came up with it.
Hey, gals.
Do you remember these?
I'm bringing them back.
Cassie already has hers.
These are for you.
Blessings bracelets!
Never hurts having a reminder
to give thanks.
Stylish, too.
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
I'll, uh, see you all
in a second.
Okay.
A table for one.
All right.
Right this way.
Here you go,
and I will be back
to take your order.
Uh, uh... wait a moment.
Please.
Um...
Thank you...
for this.
Uh, your... your gift
has reminded me
that there are still
small things
that I can be thankful for.
Honestly, I...
I can only count one, so far,
but, um,
this one is...
this one is George.
And, um...
Yeah.
Every moment
with George
was s-special.
Thank you for sharing that.
You broke Pearl.
What'd you do to her?
I suppose I just opened up
her heart a little bit.
Well... it, uh,
certainly outdid the mints.
Oh, by the way,
there's a group of women
over there...
They wanna see you.
They said you served them
a couple of days ago.
Yeah, sure.
You're makin' me proud, honey!
Hello, ladies.
Good to see you again, Dawn.
We were all just talking
about your bracelets.
Oh...
How something so simple
has really brought us joy
in so many ways.
I'm so glad.
These would be perfect
Easter gifts
to give out
to our women's prayer group.
So...
where can we buy them?
I'm sorry, buy them?
Yes.
Easter's around the corner
and we'd love 30 of the ones
with the pastel beads.
How much are they?
Let's call them affordable.
And...
bulk orders
get a healthy discount.
Can we have them by Friday?
Friday?
I have a lot of shifts.
Yes, you can.
Because we will help!
Apologies for eavesdropping,
but this lovely waitress
is our best friend.
And we're her
bracelet worker-bees.
Soon to be sold online!
Friday it is.
I love these.
They're great,
because you can
mix and match them
to go with anything.
Gorgeous and versatile.
With plenty of blessings.
Well, I'm sold!
Who would like hot tea?
- Ooh, I'll take one.
- Please.
Dawn, what do you think
of the homepage?
It's amazing.
I'm so glad you like.
Once you look over the copy,
we can take it live.
Okay...
I think this brings us to 21.
So close, you guys.
Keep going.
How's it going over there,
Mr. Spencer?
Oh, uh, not so good
in the first half,
but I'm-I'm sensing a comeback.
Chuck, you support your daughter
and focus on the beads.
I'm getting 'er done
one bead at a time.
How's your supply?
We're good, Dad.
Thank you.
Oh, good, you're here!
And a day early
on the delivery, too.
I hope your prayer group
enjoys these.
Oh, they will.
So, Dawn, the thing about
a strong community of women
is that, well, word spreads...
fast.
And it turns out that there are
a lot of people
in need of reminders
for their blessings.
That's great.
And that means?
You've got a very big order
coming your way for Easter.
How big?
Wha... 500?
That's amazing.
I know! And I keep
getting phone notifications
for online orders.
The website just went up
a couple days ago.
But here's the thing...
I'm gonna have to apologize
to everyone
and tell them
I can't fulfill all the orders.
What? No, why?
I had no idea
they'd be so popular.
And I can't ask you
to give up more of your time.
So, I'm going to make
as many as I can myself
after I meet with the bank.
Mm-hmm.
Don't say no just yet.
This is remarkable.
So, you've been
making money with these?
I-I know it doesn't
seem like much,
but to some people,
it's a whole lot.
Mm.
Listen, I have to ask.
Easter isn't far away, Jordana,
and I know we're climbing
a mountain here, but...
is there any chance
of getting an extension?
That's a little
above my pay grade,
but let me check.
Can we make any extensions
right now?
I just have somebody
who's asking.
No, I can't.
Okay, okay.
I'm sorry, Dawn.
My boss,
he needs everything closed
before the end
of the first quarter.
If there were any leeway,
we would find it.
I'm sorry.
I understand. Um...
please, keep the bracelet.
Oh...
thank you.
Have a nice day, Jordana.
Yeah, you too.
Yeah.
How'd she take it?
About as well as someone can.
You okay?
Uh, not great.
All this foreclosure stuff...
You know, it's not
what I signed up for.
You know, my parents owned
a small printing business
their whole lives...
and we were so connected
to the community.
That's who I took this job for...
To help people build businesses.
Approving loans.
Partnering with clients
to help them achieve success.
Ben, you've got a great heart...
but we both work
within the confines of a system
that makes that challenging.
Well, then,
maybe I can find a way
to help people
outside the system.
See?
I was right.
All heart.
You never give someone more
than they can handle, right?
Because it sure doesn't
feel like that right now.
I just...
need more time.
Dawn.
How nice to see you here again.
Hi, Pastor Amelia.
Listen, I'm sorry I haven't
been coming in regularly
on Sundays.
The vet has me working
on the weekends now, and...
My dear,
there is no need to apologize.
We believe
in a very forgiving God.
Forgiveness.
That word keeps coming up
whenever I'm around here.
Well, it's a good word,
isn't it?
It is.
It isn't easy.
No.
No, you're right about that.
Just keep letting God know
what's in your heart, okay?
You too?
Cassie is a great saleswoman.
These are a wonderful
little tool, aren't they?
You wanna know
what my first blessing is?
The Easter season.
Why is that?
It's a season of renewal.
I see people change
for the better
during this season
more than any other.
Goodnight, Dawn.
Goodnight.
Well, look...
you may not like math class,
but trust me,
you are gonna use a lot of it
in daily life.
Not if I'm a highly
sought-after dog trainer.
Hey, can you tell your mom
I can't come in tonight?
I gotta get back to the office.
You need a vacation.
You're telling me.
Okay, have a good night.
Say hi to your mom for me.
Bye, Lolly.
Ruff!
Let's go, Lolly.
For the hardest-working mom
I know.
Alan.
Hey, Dawn.
Well...
Well...
Uh, I'm not...
I'm not really sure
where to begin.
Three years.
Sorry, what was that?
Three years ago.
That's the last time we saw you.
Has it been that long?
I've texted.
It's not the same.
Look, Dawn, I...
I couldn't let Justin see
who I really was...
a failure.
And I didn't... I didn't know
how to dig my way out...
our way out.
I mean, I-I thought
those were good investments.
We had each other, our family.
Why now?
Why are you coming back now?
To make things right.
Okay? I-I couldn't show
my face to you...
or-or to Justin...
until I'd figured out
where I went wrong
and I'd fixed it. Okay?
And that's what I've done.
I've worked tirelessly...
tirelessly to get things
back on track, and now...
Dawn, I...
I can help.
I don't think you understand
how deep the hole was
that you left us in.
You walked out
when I needed you the most.
I know.
Okay? I know.
I'm sorry.
I am...
I am so, so sorry, Dawn.
Could you ever forgive me?
You should probably go.
I don't wanna wake Justin up.
I don't know how
he would take this.
Dawn, Dawn, I...
Shh.
Just give me a chance, okay?
I... I'm apologizing to you.
I'm saying sorry for everything
that I put you through.
You can't just expect
to walk back in here
like nothing happened.
I don't. Okay?
But I...
I just...
I just need you
to give me another chance.
I failed you both once.
I can't do that again.
Let me help you save the house.
And then what?
Well, maybe there could be
a place for me in it again?
I need some time.
But, hey...
check that out.
That's yours.
Cash it.
There's gonna be
a whole lot more coming
the next couple weeks,
I promise.
I can't accept this.
You probably need it.
No. No, Dawn.
There's other things
that I need a whole lot more.
Well, I'll be around.
I love you.
Wow, he really said he's sorry?
Yes, over and over.
And he's got a job?
That pays actual money?
That's what he tells me.
He even left me a check.
I haven't deposited it yet.
I mean, how do you feel?
Honestly?
I think I felt
a little sad for him.
You know, we built
this life together.
We really, truly
loved each other.
And then we just lost it all
over bad investments and...
broken promises.
Yeah.
And I also feel really angry.
You know, the divorce broke me.
I haven't been able
to open my heart up
to anybody since.
And, just like that,
he wants back into our lives?
You know, when he left,
all I wanted was to feel like
I could do this on my own,
and lately,
I feel like I actually can.
And I am so proud of you,
my friend.
Oh, we gotta go.
It's Easter-basket night
in five minutes,
we're gonna be late.
I'm so sorry we're running
a little bit late.
Dawn...
no apology necessary.
With how busy you've been,
the fact that you'd volunteer
your free time to the church
says everything.
I'm just gonna go
let Sandra know
I can only deliver
about 200 of her bracelets
before Easter.
Yeah, that's the thing.
The only way
you'll ever make enough
to fulfill the order in time
is with reinforcements.
Reinforcements?
Follow me.
Hey, girlfriend!
I don't understand.
I thought we were supposed
to be making Easter baskets.
Cassie told me
all about your big order
and this seemed like
the perfect opportunity to help.
That's the beauty
of a community like this...
we all support each other.
Thank you.
Sorry I'm late.
Pearl!
We're happy you made it.
You know, George loved
volunteering here.
He was a blessing.
My husband would've loved you.
Okay, what are we
all waiting for?
Let's make some bracelets!
Hi!
Uh, sorry I'm late.
There's a man who knows
how to make an entrance.
There's a spot
by a lovely young woman there.
Thank you. Hi.
Ben! So nice to see you.
- Hi.
- Hi.
You're here.
I am.
Why?
Well, I stopped by
the River Rapids Cafe,
hoping for a late-night burger, and...
hoping to see you,
and Flancy said you were here,
so I came right over.
Everyone, this is Ben.
Hi, Ben!
Wow! Now, this is
the work environment
I've been looking for.
Hello, everyone!
Thank you for the warm welcome.
Okay, I am here to serve.
This is the Ben
she isn't going out with, right?
The one and only.
That's him.
You know, maybe this
is the next big thing.
Hey, how about this...
"Dawn's Designs."
- I like that.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- It's a good business name.
Okay, so how do we do this?
- Okay. I've lined you up.
- All right.
And you just feed this...
- Okay.
- through.
Okay. I see it.
Actually...
Thank you for helping tonight.
Of course. I had a blast.
Your friends,
all the churchgoers,
even Pearl...
Pearl!
Everybody was fantastic.
Well, I always say
I won the lottery.
- Hey.
- Thank you.
Watch your head.
- That one.
- Ah.
Um, so I was thinking,
if you ever need help
with this bracelet business,
you know, I'm pretty good
with numbers, so...
It's not really a business,
but, uh...
I suppose it could be.
Oh, I think you'd make
an amazing entrepreneur.
Why is that?
You're personable.
You're resilient, adaptable.
Beautiful.
Successful entrepreneurs
are beautiful?
Sorry. I, uh...
I kinda went off-script there.
But I'd need to spend
some more time with you
to add
to the list of qualities...
when you have time to spend.
I have a good feeling
that my schedule's
going to free up soon if...
things keep going
the way they are
with the bracelets.
Great.
Pencil me in.
I will.
Well, um...
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
Thank you for meeting me.
Seeing you yesterday...
well, I just needed
to see you again.
Alan, I don't know what you...
Please cash the check.
It's not gonna bounce.
Well, I appreciate that.
It would nearly get
our house payments caught up.
Believe it or not,
my actual bonus
was twice that much.
But I invested the other half.
Invested it?
No, don't worry.
Okay, I know
that that word can be...
uh, triggering,
but I have an advisor now.
All right? And we're going
all-in on this new start-up.
He thinks it's gonna be huge.
Knowing who I am...
knowing who I can be,
having a community
of friends who support me.
What are you doing?
Do you remember these bracelets?
I used to make them.
A blessing for each bead.
Oh.
Yeah. Yeah, those are cute.
I'm selling them.
To pay off the debt?
Mm-hmm.
When, by the time
Justin graduates college?
Excuse me?
Now, look...
they... they're nice, okay?
But you're not gonna
have to do that anymore.
You can count on me.
You should...
take this back.
Honey, you don't...
You don't have to do that.
I've changed!
So have I.
I am a capable woman
who can climb out
of a financial mess
I didn't even make
and raise a kind, smart son.
I know I let you down before...
These bracelets
have changed the most important
thing about me...
my belief, okay?
Now,
just focus on the one thing
we actually can do together,
and that's Justin.
Texting is not enough, Alan.
You need to make time
to see him.
I know.
I know,
I want him back in my life.
I actually believe that.
He would love that.
Call him tomorrow.
I will.
I promise.
Goodnight, Alan.
Dawn...
Justin?
Come on, Grandma's here,
it's time to go.
Did I make the biggest mistake
of my life last night?
You're proving again and again
what can be accomplished
with faith.
You know what, Mom?
You're right.
I just get so overwhelmed sometimes,
I forget.
Well, you have
a lot on your plate.
Oh. I'll get it.
- Hi... Oh.
- Hi!
You must be Ben, Lolly's dad?
Yes, I am.
Oh. Well,
it's wonderful to meet you.
I'm Mary, Dawn's mom.
- Mary. Nice to meet you.
- Oh...
Oh!
Justin, please don't
keep Grandma waiting.
Hi. What brings you here?
Hi, Ben.
- Hey.
- Is Lolly here?
No. I'm sorry, kiddo,
she's at home.
You guys are leaving?
No, no, no, it's okay.
I... I have a second,
but then I have
to get to the restaurant.
- But we are off. Yeah.
- Okay.
- It's been a pleasure.
- Likewise.
Mm.
- Come on, Justin.
- Bye, Mom.
Bye.
Homework first!
Yeah, yeah.
Um...
so,
I have...
a surprise for you.
Oh, my gosh.
You designed this?
Yes. I'm a man of many talents.
- You don't like it?
- No. No, I love it.
I do.
I really do.
Great.
We are searching
Always searching
For the easy way out
The few that found it
Only found that
Life's a merry-go-round
And love
Will learn to fall
And time
Will take us all
Trust is the unknown
And hope
Will lead us home
Pouring rain
Into thirsty oceans
Rivers running
From higher ground
A sense of wonder...
Dad!
...And love
Will learn to fall
And time will take us all
Trust is the unknown
And hope will lead us home
Thanks for spending
so much of your weekend with me.
Happy to spend time together.
You're in a fun mood.
Well, things are finally
starting to come together.
Well, that's good.
I mean, taking this bracelet
and turning it
into a working business...
That is a big challenge.
I'm proud of you.
Thank you.
It has been a challenge,
but it's been fantastic.
I mean, the community
coming together...
I love it.
It's been so special.
You said your parents
owned a small business, right?
Yeah, that's right.
This was
Puggy's Ice Cream Shoppe.
Oh, I loved it when I was a kid.
They had this long glass case
filled with ice cream.
It wasn't a business,
it was an experience.
The kind of place
where it's impossible to choose?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
All my friends and I
were so sad last year
when the owners retired
and closed up shop.
It made me start to think,
what if I had...
my own shop,
and I sold my bracelets,
and other jewelry,
maybe soaps and oils
from local vendors?
Like an old-time apothecary.
I love that idea.
Obviously, it's a pipe dream.
Well, do you know the saying,
"Get out of the boat"?
Yes, I do.
But I'm having trouble
just standing in the boat,
let alone getting out of it.
Dawn, are you kidding me?
After what you've been through,
I think you're a lot stronger
than you think.
You know...
I thought I was gonna have
my first kiss here.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
- Right here?
- Mm-hmm.
Well, I guess
everything happens for a reason.
Maybe.
Well, that was a cherry on top.
I suppose
I should ask you out again.
I'd like that.
Hello, this is Dawn.
Dawn.
I have got a blessing for you.
You've caught up
on your house payments,
so all that is remaining
is your credit-card debt
and the car loan.
My boss said today
that he's extending
your deadline
to the middle of the month.
Wait, really?
Yes.
He is impressed by
the progress that you've made.
Oh, my gosh, I can't believe it.
Well, believe.
I will.
I... I do.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Hey, keep it up.
So you catch me
when I fall, right?
And you hear me
when I call, crying
And you'll fix me
when I'm broke, right?
That's all I need to know
Oh!
- What's going on here?
- Well...
A department-store buyer
came in for dinner
a couple of weeks ago.
Gerwig's Department Store
wants to stock your bracelets.
A thousand bracelets?
And they want them
on the shelves by Easter
and throughout the spring.
And they are ready
to advance 50%
to secure the order.
Easter is less than a week away.
Well, here's to Dawn
and her bracelets!
A ray of sunshine
on a cloudy day.
And that good things come...
to those who believe.
Believe, believe, believe
believe in your love...
I can't believe it.
All of you here
to make bracelets.
Well, we're here for you, Dawn.
- Where's Ben?
- Yes, Ben?
He's working late.
He wishes he could be here.
We wish he could be here, too.
Okay.
May I please have
everyone's attention?
Please?
All of you are just
a wonderful reminder
of the power of community.
Saying "thank you" isn't enough
for all of the love
that you've shown me
and my bracelet business,
and I would be
honored to give back.
So I'd like to announce
that 15% of
all Blessing Bracelet sales...
will be going to the church.
Now, let's get out there
and send out more blessings.
Dawn, that is so generous.
Are you sure
you can afford to do that?
There is no price I can place
on the generosity
of everyone here.
And I just found out
that my house is caught up.
I think I can finally do it...
Get out of this hole.
I am so proud of you.
Well, I did it with
a little help from some friends.
And one very big one.
Dawn, my dear.
Your generous offer
will go straight
to our Youth Mission trips.
I'm so glad it will help.
I want to thank you
for bringing me back to God.
It turns out He never moved...
I did.
Dawn!
A welcome surprise.
I wanted to come in person
to hand you a check
for the remainder
of my credit-card debt
before the original deadline.
You did it
in such a short amount of time.
It's... It's amazing.
So... what's your secret?
Well, let's just say
a little belief goes a long way.
Fair enough.
I just love this.
I'm so glad.
So let's do
some closing-out paperwork.
Okay? Oh, Ben.
This is this is Ms. DeVries,
but she goes by Spencer now.
This is my boss, Mr. Adams.
Dawn?
You two know each other?
Apparently, not as well
as I thought we did.
Wait, wait, wait.
You're "Devries"?
I'm lost.
Well, Mr. Adams and I
have been spending
a lot of time together lately.
Let's just say
this is a huge surprise.
Oh, I'm sorry,
but if I knew
that you were on the...
Hey, hey, everyone,
this is a happy moment.
Dawn's paying off her debt.
Did you know it was my loan?
I did not. Tell her.
I mean, Ben, you...
you did have final say
on the DeVries loan.
I'm not lying.
I didn't know
your name was DeVries.
- I thought you...
- You know what? Here.
This should take care of it.
Please let me know
when everything is finalized.
Dawn, please, this is...
No. Ben, I was duped
by my ex for years,
and I'm not gonna
let that happen again.
Have a nice day, Mr. Adams.
Dawn, honey,
did he actually lie to you?
Mom, I don't
wanna talk about it.
Let's focus on our arrangements
for the church
for Easter Sunday.
After all that you've told me,
I don't think
he deliberately misled you.
Mom...
It... It feels like
a big misunderstanding.
Please.
There are some things
about my break-up with Alan
that still haunt me.
The inability to trust someone
being the biggest.
Not every guy is Alan.
Perhaps you're just afraid.
Afraid of what?
To put your heart
out there again.
Well, I have some pretty good
reasons for that.
Yes, your past
really hurt you, Dawn,
but you have come
miles and miles since then.
And now here is this young man,
who, despite a misunderstanding,
really seems to have
a kind heart.
But putting yourself
back out there
means risking the same thing
you risked for Alan...
and that scares you.
Show a little faith.
You like him, don't you?
Yes.
Very much.
And you liked him very much
without knowing
what he did for a living.
So what does that tell you?
He doesn't define himself
by his career,
and he cares about yours.
That's the exact opposite
of Alan.
More of a partnership?
You're right, Mom.
It's time for you
to surrender things over.
Let go, and let God do the rest.
How am I supposed to do that?
Forgiveness might not be
a bad place to start.
Whoa. Mom, you're still up?
I am.
Shouldn't you be sleeping?
Couldn't.
Dad called again.
He did?
That's great.
Yeah, really great.
We're going out for lunch
next week.
I'm really happy to hear that.
Me too.
Mom, I just want you to know...
you're a really good mom.
I should get to bed.
I'm walking Lolly
in the morning.
You sure
you wanna keep doing that?
It's a lot of work.
I'm her Uncle Justin.
I can't just leave her.
Ben's pretty great, too.
We have this whole
cool handshake we do.
It keeps getting longer
each time.
Well, I'm very happy
that you two get along so well.
You know, he does always ask
how you're doing.
He does?
Yeah.
He just wants to know
that everything is going well.
He can tell
when you're stressed.
Ben seems to really care.
Thank you for sharing that.
All right.
Now, how about you teach me
a secret handshake?
Nah, you just get hugs.
Aww.
Love you, Mom.
I love you, too, Justin.
This is perfect.
She can set up shop in the back,
fill this area here
with her bracelets.
You know, she doesn't know it,
but I've been
counting my blessings, too.
- Have you?
- Yeah.
Just reminding myself
what I'm grateful for
makes me happier.
Yeah.
Looks like you need
a little bit of cheering up.
Okay.
For my secret handshake
with Justin.
For Lolly's slobbery kisses.
For this beautiful spring day.
And...
for your mom.
- My mom?
- Yeah.
She's a pretty special lady.
Yeah, she is.
How do you feel now?
Good. Lighter.
Thank you.
I just hope this plan works out.
This place was such a good idea.
You're pretty awesome, Ben.
Thank you.
Doesn't always feel that way,
but I'll take it.
Trust me, you are.
I just hope she likes it.
She's definitely gonna
count us both as a blessing
after seeing this.
Actually, you know...
Justin, I don't think
I should be here
when she arrives.
You've worked so hard.
You're gonna
have to trust me on this.
Wait, no.
I've got an idea.
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Let it shine
Thank you to Cassie Masters
and our phenomenal choir.
Thank you to our volunteers
who worked hard
to make this Easter service
beautiful and meaningful.
And now, with the promise
of hope in our risen Savior,
and peace and love
in our hearts,
let's get outside
and find those Easter eggs!
- I'll see you outside.
- Okay.
Hi, how are you?
Oh, Cassie.
That was so inspiring.
Your music sure knows
how to lift spirits
on an Easter morning.
Well, that's
what Easter's all about.
Isn't it?
Celebrating renewal and hope.
So beautiful.
- Excuse me.
- Sure.
Oh, excuse me. Dawn.
Thank you
for your thoughtful words
this morning, Pastor.
I was so happy to see you
back here for Sunday service.
You know, these bracelets
really served as a reminder
to bring gratitude
into our hearts.
And even more, you have
reminded so many people
to connect with God,
the giver of all good things.
That is such
a wonderful gift, Dawn.
Thank you.
Thank you!
Oh, look who it is.
Happy Easter, Dawn.
Pearl...
you have a lovely smile.
Oh!
Well, George said
that these pearly whites
were the first thing
that caught his eye.
Thank you, again,
for giving me a reason to smile.
I...
I didn't think it was possible.
Anything's possible
with a little bit of hope.
That's right. Here.
Oh...
It was wonderful
to see you, Pearl.
Lolly.
What are you doing here?
You sweet girl.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Look.
Dawn, I'm sorry.
I should...
No. No.
Ben, you have nothing
to apologize for.
- I'm the one who...
- Mom.
Lolly has something for you.
She does? What?
Oh.
What is this?
What have you done?
A key?
What's this for?
We'll show you.
Can you just trust me, please?
Okay.
Justin, you wanna lead the way?
Okay.
Just follow Lolly.
Okay.
Just a little bit further.
What...
Keep 'em closed.
No peeking.
I'm not. I'm not.
Okay.
Almost there.
All right.
Open them.
Puggy's Ice Cream Shoppe.
Try it, Mom.
Try it.
So...
this is a place
for small businesses to grow.
I don't understand.
Welcome to Dawn's Designs.
I'm gonna be a manager.
And Lolly will be
the co-manager.
And you'll only ever
have to pay me in pizza.
How great is that?
Wait, this is ours?
Um... Okay.
So...
I quit my job.
Obviously, it wasn't a good fit.
I need to help people
build their dreams.
So, I purchased this place as...
an incubator.
So you bought this place for me?
Ben, I can't possibly
accept something so...
Dawn, Dawn, Dawn.
I didn't buy it for you.
I'm... I'm renting to you.
You inspired me to take a leap,
and I... I wanna give back
by creating an opportunity.
That's it.
And if you happen
to need help along the way,
I may know somebody
with a background in finance
who just happens to be
quite fond of you,
then I'd be
more than willing to help.
If that's okay.
Yeah.
That's more than okay.
We'll be outside.
Ben, I'm sorry.
I let my past
cloud my present with you.
And you have never been
anything but good to me.
Well, if it helps,
I forgive you.
Does this mean...
that we're partners?
Only if that works for you.
Oh, I think we can make it work.
Justin.
My storefront.
Forgiveness.
New beginnings.
Oh. I'll get it.
Dawn, I've got
that laundry basket
you asked for.
It's pretty unruly laundry,
so I might need some help.
You did her laundry?
Well, Ben says laundry basket.
I say belated Easter basket.
Come check it out.
What you got there?
It's... Mom, it's a dog!
It's your dog.
Dog needs a name.
She doesn't have one yet.
What are you gonna
name her, Justin?
I don't know.
I can't believe she's mine.
She's yours.
You have shown me, and Ben,
that you are more than capable
of taking care of her.
Your grandpa's right.
Naming a dog...
Big responsibility.
I've got it.
I'm going to call her "Hope".
Why "Hope"?
I mean...
I hoped for a dog
for a long time.
I hoped for Dad
to be back in my life.
I hoped for a long time
for you to be happy.
I guess, to me, she means hope.
We could all use
a little more hope in our lives.
I think that's perfect.
"Hope".
You know, it suits her.
A new business.
A new puppy.
A new boyfriend.
That's a lot of new things.
And there is no one
I would rather move forward with
than you.
One blessing at a time.
