Transcripts - Forever Dreaming

Previously on Chesapeake Shores...

- We're gonna have a baby.
- We are.

There's nothing going on
with me and Evan Kincaid.

[JESS] He whisks you away
to some romantic spot?

Evan, my feelings for
you are entirely...

I was gonna offer you
a job at my company.

- Oh.
- Were you in prison?

Look, Bree, I don't
want to make any excuses.

I understand, you
know, if you want to...

- That's Buzz.
- "Would you scatter my ashes

over the Chesapeake Bay islands?"

We're going for a little airplane ride.

The last radio contact they
had with him was at : .

They tried him just
now. They got nothing.

Okay.

The airfield says they
haven't heard anything.

- No distress call?
- Nothing at all.

That's a good thing, right?

- The storm's moving in.
- Dad knows what he's doing.

He's gonna be home long
before the storm hits.

What time does it make landfall?

Right about now.

He's fine, right?

- He's fine.
- [PHONE RINGS]

Hello?

Yeah.

Okay, and when was that?

Okay. Yeah, no, thanks.

Keep us posted.

That was my friend with the Coast Guard.

They said that they got a
distress call around sundown.

It was kind of garbled,
but they think it was Dad.

What did he say?

That he was having mechanical failure,

and he was gonna try to put down
on one of the coastal islands,

but then they lost contact.

They're looking for him.

They will find him.

How's the storm looking?

- Not good.
- Well, there's no point in everyone losing sleep,

so why don't you guys go home,

and we'll give you a
call if we hear anything.

- Not a chance.
- No way.

Okay, well then,

somebody better help me make coffee

- 'cause this might be a long night.
- Decaf?

Regular...

Megan...

Do you need anything, dear?

No.

Mick.

I need Mick.

He is all right.

How can you be sure?

If anything had happened
to him, I would know.

There's just so much I
haven't said to him yet.

Well, what would you have said to him?

That I love him.

- That I like him.
- [CHUCKLES]

I like the man that he has become.

I just might want to spend
the rest of my life with him.

[PHONE RINGS]

Hello.

Yeah.

Oh?

Yeah, no, that's great. Thank
you so much for letting us know.

We'll be right there.

That was the Coast Guard. They have him.

Oh, saints be praised!

- Is he all right?
- Yeah, he's gonna be okay.

They said he's a little banged up.

They're taking him to the hospital.

- The hospital?
- Yeah, who's coming?

- I'll call Abby.
- Okay.

[WOMAN ON P.A. ANNOUNCEMENT]
All cardiac specialists on , please.

Dad...

Hey.

- [MEGAN] You're in a wheelchair?
- Don't overreact.

I'm fine, I can walk.

It's just hospital
protocol, right, Teddy?

- Dad, it's good to see you.
- It's good to be seen.

Hey...

- Hey.
- You inspired a heck of a short story.

- Can I read it later?
- I don't think you'll like it.

- [CHUCKLES]
- I'll wheel you out to the car.

Is there anybody you want me to sue?

I'll think about it.

- I'm so glad you're okay.
- Thank you, baby.

Oh, Mick...

Hey.

- [WINCING] Ah!
- Oh! Sorry.

That's all right.

- Look at me.
- Yeah.

Are you okay?

No, I'm fine, really.

Just some cuts and
scrapes and a broken arm.

I've had worse on the football field.

If you'd died out there,
I would have k*lled you.

Let's go home.

Let's go home, huh?

Yeah.

[♪]

Listen...

I'm sorry to have worried you all.

You must think I'm an idiot.

You're safe.

And that's all that's important.

And yes, you are an idiot.

So, what happened?

Well, it was supposed
to be a quick flight,

just to scatter Buzz's ashes.

That late in the day?

Well, I was only going
to be gone an hour,

and I'd be back before dark.

But you weren't.

No.

An unexpected fog bank
rolled in over the mainland,

and so I was...

You had to make an emergency landing?

Not an emergency landing.

It was a, um...

a necessary, urgent landing.

Dad, I don't think that's a thing.

It's a thing.

Mick, you crashed.

Well, I think that's
a matter of semantics.

I would say that I...

I put the airplane down
on a spit of land...

with no runway,

and lots of trees, and rocks, and bushes

- pretty hard.
- The Coast Guard found you?

Yeah, and pretty quickly.

As I've been saying, you know, uh,

when I landed the airplane, it was...

it was pretty aggressive,

and, uh, once I hit,

the emergency locator
transmitter kicked in,

and they came and got me right away.

All I have to do now is figure out a way

to get the airplane back
to the airport for repairs.

I hope that it gets
washed away by the ocean.

- Well, I know you're upset, Megan, but...
- Upset? Mick!

We thought we'd never see you again.

How could you do that to me? To us?

- I'm sorry.
- [MEGAN LAUGHS RUEFULLY] Oh, no...

Don't you realize there
were people who love you,

and who care about you, and...

who would miss you...

What's the use!

[FOOTSTEPS STOMP AWAY]

She's just really happy you're okay.

Hey.

Can't sleep?

I started thinking about

how stupid it was that
they say pregnant women

have all these cravings...

Yeah?

... and then I started craving
peanut butter and avocados,

only we don't have any avocados.

I'll get you some.

We didn't get to tell your
family last night about the baby.

I know, it just...

- the time didn't seem right.
- No, it didn't.

The right time will come.

It will.

But the right time to
get those avocados is now.

- On my way.
- Thank you.

That was quite a night.

Oh, indeed, it was.

[CONNOR WINCES]

- Do you have a headache?
- [GROANS]

- Just a little one.
- You're drinking too much coffee.

- Maybe, or maybe not enough.
- [CHUCKLES]

I need to find an
assistant for the office.

A paralegal?

That, and somebody to...

keep my schedule, and book appointments.

Well, I could do that part,

until you find somebody permanent.

Thank you, Gran.

No, really. Easy-peasy.

You answer the telephone,
you take messages,

schedule appointments.

I used to do it for your grandfather
when he first started out.

Right,

but, I mean, the...

- Gran, the technologies have changed.
- Oh, yes.

In my day, we used telegraph...

"doo-doo-doo-doo... " and
of course, homing pigeons.

- [LAUGHING]
- Connor, come on now,

your Gran is in touch.

I text.

I do emojis.

Oh, I know you emoji, Gran.

- So then it's settled.
- Okay. You can answer the phones,

but understand it is just for today.

Well, of course.

You couldn't afford me any longer.

- [LAUGHING] Let's go!
- All right, let's do it.

Mick, hi.

Hey, Evan.

- How are you?
- Asks the guy with his arm in a cast.

- Heard the news, wanted to come see you.
- Oh, I'm fine.

You said in your text you wanted
to discuss the hotel revisions.

Well, I just wanted to make sure

you're okay with the
architect's new adjustments.

Yeah, I think he did a great job.

Yeah, me too.

- So are you right-handed?
- Nope, a proud lefty.

Well then, it was very clever
of you to break the right arm.

I thought so.

How's Abby? Still in Ohio?

Yeah, she's good. She's
getting the job done.

Good.

- Sit down. I want to talk to you about something.
- All right.

I think you're learning that my
daughter and I are straight-sh**t.

Definitely.

Abby told me you tried
to hire her away from me.

I did.

I gotta tell you I got a big problem
with the way you handled that.

- You do?
- Yeah.

You should have come to me first.

Old-school and direct.

Because she's your daughter?

Because she's my partner.

- I get it.
- Do you?

Do you really get it?

I do.

You aren't going to hit me now, are you?

If I wasn't in this cast?

Bang-zoom!

[EVAN CHUCKLES]

That's just awful!

But are you sure you need a lawyer?

Have you tried reasoning with him first?

You call me and let me know how it goes.

[CALL RINGING]

Connor O'Brien, Attorney At Law.

Oh, yes, Dr. Laurence, oh, I know.

Really? Well, that's a shame.

Have you explained it to him?

Maybe he can fix it. It's worth a try...

You call me and you
let me know how it goes.

All right, bye.

Hey, Gran. What are you doing?

- I'm answering your phone.
- I can see that, yeah.

I'm not getting any calls.

Oh, yes, well, I'm
screening them for you first.

I wouldn't bother you.

You know, most people, they
just need to vent to someone.

I know. That's what a lawyer does,

except we charge them
by the hour, for venting.

Well, most lawyers, sure,

but not my Connor.

He'd never take advantage
of people like that.

- [PHONE RINGS]
- Oh!

Connor O'Brien, Attorney At Law.

Could you hold, please?

Is there anything else?

When is my next interview?

Right after lunch,

and... I made soup.

That's great.

Hello.

So I decided to use local stone
for all the retaining walls.

- What do you think?
- I think it's fine,

but we've already gone over that.

We've already gone over everything
you've been talking about.

Well, I just, you know,

want to make sure everything's clear.

Evan, if you want to visit,
you can just come visit.

You don't need an excuse.

Thanks.

Want some lunch?

Yeah.

You know, you don't have to do this.

It's no problem. Let's
see what we've got here.

We've got some eggs,
some peanut butter...

We could make something...

[MUTTERING] We've got some mushrooms...

All right, come on,

you have one working arm.

- Allow me.
- What, you cook?

I make good eggs.

You like breakfast for lunch?

- As a matter of fact, I do.
- Yeah, me too.

I'll make you my famous

"omelet à la whatever
you have in the fridge."

[CHUCKLES]

Where did you grow up, Evan?

Gainesville, Florida.

But you already knew that.

All you have to do is Google me.

Oh, I only Google dead people.

- I like that about you.
- Well, thank you.

Any brothers or sisters?

Nope, only child.

Can't you tell?

[CHUCKLES] I did wonder.

Never knew my father.

Oh, that must be tough.

Ah, my mom made do.

Yeah. I bet she's a very special woman.

Yeah, she was.

I'm sorry.

So am I.

- [PHONE RINGS]
- Excuse me.

Hello?

Oh, yes, thank you so much.

Yes, I'll get there as
soon as I can. Thanks.

That was the Coast Guard.

They've salvaged my plane,

or what's left of it.

- You want to check it out?
- After my omelet.

I'll go with you.

Mandrake, pick us up in minutes.

Here goes nothing.

- But your dad's okay?
- Yeah, yeah.

So relieved when they wheeled
him out in that wheelchair.

I can't imagine.

But at the same time,

this whole short story
formed in my head.

That's what it's like being a
writer. No tragedy goes to waste.

I'd be a real inspiration
for you then, right?

- [CHUCKLING] Yes.
- [MR. SULLIVAN] Luke?

Hey... [CLEARS THROAT] Mr. Sullivan.

How you doing?

You got a sec?

Um...

Bree O'Brien, this is Bennet Sullivan.

He's my parole officer.

Well, I prefer to think of myself

as your guardian angel, keeping
you on the straight and narrow.

Yeah, just like that.

Uh, what brings you here, Mr. Sullivan?

Perhaps we should have this
conversation in private?

She can stay.

Okay.

Things aren't looking good, Luke.

I mean...

first, you changed your job and
your residences without telling me.

No, I did tell you. We went over this.

Yeah, and then there's the
matter of your tardiness

when it comes to our appointments.

- I explained that.
- [SCOFFS]

Car trouble, really?

You said that was okay.

I said it was okay if you
didn't have any more violations,

and then this comes along.

This is your last drug test, Tatum.

It came back positive for amphetamines.

[LUKE] What?

We're going to have to
have a parole hearing,

but...

looks like you're going
back to North Branch, son.

You can keep that.

Ma'am.

Okay, this isn't true. I've
never taken amphetamines. This...

Luke...

Hey, Luke?

If you did, you have to tell me.

Bree, I swear.

I have never taken amphetamines.

Okay.

Then that's a false positive
and you can take another.

You know, it's no use.

- Sullivan has it out for me.
- That attitude's not gonna get you anywhere.

There's another hearing, right?

- Yeah, but...
- Okay, great, we'll fight it.

You're not going back to prison.

This is one very wrecked plane.

It's much worse than I thought.

You really did a number on it.

I did.

Mick, it's a miracle you're alive.

Yeah, I just realized that.

Listen, do me a favor, don't, um...

don't tell Abby how bad
this really is, okay?

Or Megan, or anybody.

I don't want to worry them.

Understood.

My lips are sealed.

I'm gonna miss that plane.

Have you had it long?

Ten years.

Piper Seneca.

[CHUCKLES FONDLY] I loved it so much.

I don't think it's salvageable.

No, I don't think so.

Well, you could always get a new one.

Maybe.

I could help.

If you need help.

- Help?
- I could help you buy a new one.

A replacement? I'd be happy to.

No, thank you.

- I just meant that I could help...
- Let it go.

- I didn't mean to offend you, Mick.
- You didn't offend me,

but if you keep talking, you might.

You know, this show
is gonna put your mom

back on the map in the art world.

I am not even thinking about that.

Oh, come now,

this could be your greatest triumph.

The culmination of your
professional career.

You should be very proud.
She should be very proud.

- Yeah.
- I will be when it's over.

It really is terrific, Mom.

Thanks, Kev.

I'm just glad that your father is safe.

Oh, man, me too.

Though it was kind of fun seeing
you light into him like that.

Well, I was upset.

Just proves that you care.

Yeah.

There's something that
I want to tell you.

Hmm?

I'm proud of you.

Aw...

Thanks, honey.

[CONNOR] Thanks for coming in.
You'll hear from me later today.

Well, how about that one?

He's probably the best of the bunch.

I wish he had more legal training.

There's one more.

- Oh, uh, send 'em in.
- Sure thing, boss.

- Hi, there.
- Hi.

Margaret.

Margaret Keller.

Connor O'Brien.

What are you doing here?
Shouldn't you be at DLP?

Sure, if I still worked there.

Oh, no, you didn't get fired,
did you, on account of me?

No. No, I quit.

Soon after you did.

I made a great speech.
You should have heard me.

- I wish I had.
- All about how I couldn't work for a firm

that treated people the
way they tried to treat you.

How I didn't study law to
become that kind of lawyer.

I want to help people,
not just make money.

- You said all that?
- Yeah,

and a few choice words I can't repeat

with your grandmother
listening at the door.

- I'm not listening!
- We believe you, Gran!

But really, when you quit, I thought,

"I want to work with a guy like that."

So... here I am.

Hmm.

Well, I guess there's
only one thing left to say.

- Welcome aboard.
- Thank you.

What took you so long?

[CHUCKLING]

Flat White for you

- and a Capp for me.
- Thank you, sir.

Mick was offended when I
offered to buy him a plane.

Not offended, sir. Insulted.

There's a difference.

I was playing the Rich
Man Card, wasn't I?

Mr. O'Brien is a proud man.

I should've known better.

I don't even know why I did that.

If I may venture a guess, sir,

it's because something about this place

has come to matter to you.

I don't know about that.

I like this town,

I am fond of the O'Briens,

but I don't think it clouds my judgment.

Then I must be mistaken, sir.

Unless, of course,

there's some other factor
you're not considering.

"A title search has
discovered recorded documents

in the chain of title of your property.

- The previous owner granted an easement... "
- Hey, uh, Connor.

I hate to bother you,
I know you're so busy.

Uh...

I'd love the distraction. Hi, Luke.

- Connor.
- What's wrong?

Um... we need your help.

And you swear that you haven't
taken any illegal dr*gs?

I swear.

I swear.

Listen to me, Connor,

I've done everything I can
to try to turn my life around.

I can't go back to prison.

I just can't.

This is important.

- How long until the hearing?
- Three days.

Three days...

[SIGHS] Well, I don't know a
lot about the parole system,

Okay, thanks. I understand...

No, no, no, but three days
is time enough to learn.

Margaret, can you
please clear my schedule?

Shouldn't be all that tough.

And, uh, somebody send
out for some coffees.

Thank you.

Well, don't thank me yet.

Now, I assume you're willing
to take another drug test?

- Absolutely.
- Okay.

Now, Luke, I need you
to focus, all right?

I need you to concentrate. Have
you taken any other medications?

Any medications at all?

At the Bridge,

- didn't I see you take an allergy pill?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I think I've
got 'em on me as well.

Yes. Perfect. A lot of
antihistamines contain ingredients

that can cause a false
positive. Thank you.

Unfortunately, these pills do not.

[♪]

All right, I can see why you
took my offer the wrong way.

Don't. Just don't.

I get it. You're proud.

- I can understand how someone of your generation...
- My what?

I keep putting my foot in it, don't I?

You really do.

- Wow.
- Look, I know you meant well.

I do.

Maybe I'm a little testy right now.

So why don't we just forget
the whole thing, okay?

Yeah. Sounds good.

[SIGHS]

- The arm hurt?
- Yes, my arm hurts.

My back hurts. My legs hurt.

My head hurts.

- Everything hurts.
- You've been through a lot.

That was a serious accident.

Ah, it wasn't so bad.

I was in control the whole time.

- But you were scared?
- Scared?

I was terrified.

It can take time to get
over a thing like that.

- Do you want to talk about it?
- No.

I'm alive. That's all
that really matters.

Hmm.

Well, that's one way of dealing with it.

Push it down, bottle it up,
pretend it never happened.

That's my generation's way.

Of course, it has a
tendency to come back at you

when you least expect it.

You say that like you're
speaking from personal experience.

- Could be.
- You want to talk about it?

- No, not particularly.
- Now you know how I feel.

Touché.

Why don't you tell me about it?

Please.

Uh... okay. I, um...

I was ,

in the passenger seat.

We were driving at night.

I don't know if she'd been drinking.

She might have been,

or maybe she just fell asleep.

We hit the bridge over
the Parkway going...

I don't know how fast.

I was not wearing my seat belt.

Air bags caught me,

but they messed up my back pretty bad.

I pulled her out...

but, uh...

she didn't make it.

That's awful.

Is that why you don't drive?

That,

and Mandrake says I'm a
menace behind the wheel.

The girl,

did you know her well?

Yeah.

She, uh...

She was my mom.

[♪]

Oh, boy.

Hello.

Connor...

Wakey-wakey.

- You okay?
- Yeah.


[GROANING] I must've...

- Slept here all night?
- Yeah.

[GROANS] What day is it?

It's the day.

Friday. The hearing is today.

Right, yeah, I'm ready.

Um...

Oh, do you have any more aspirin?

How many have you taken?

I don't know, how many is in a bottle?

Come on, don't mother me.

I'm not mothering
you, I'm friending you.

You're pushing yourself too hard.

I'm pushing myself just enough.

A man's freedom is at stake.

- How long until the hearing?
- Three hours.

Three hours, okay.
Let's get back to work.

Luke passed his second drug
test. That's good, right?

[YAWNING] Doesn't really mean anything.

It just means he wasn't on
dr*gs when he took that test.

I've got to find something more

than "he's a nice guy who
deserves a second chance."

You'll figure it out.

Between now and : ?

I have faith in you.

That makes one of us.

Right, uh, so page , section three...

- Did you get 'em?
- I did.

Cream soda and
barbeque-flavored potato chips.

Thank you!

- I didn't know you liked barbeque chips.
- Yeah, me neither.

I have no control over these cravings.

Blame the Bellybean.

Hey... you,

be reasonable, okay? I had
to go to two different stores

to get that cream soda.

Oh, and I got flowers sent to
the art opening for your mom.

Oh, that's sweet, but you
didn't have to do that.

My mom knows that we both have to work.

No, I know, but it's
a big night for her.

Besides, I'm big on
being nice to mothers.

That I understand.

Ahem.

[LAUGHS]

Hi. It's me again. Did you hear that?

Okay, we have to be nice to our mothers,

and you especially, because you
are going to have a great mom.

You hear me, little Declan?

[LAUGHS] Okay, enough with
the atomic Irish names.

- Declan?
- Yeah.

You might as well call him Gulliver.

[IN IRISH ACCENT]
Little Gulliver O'Brien

in there, just kicking
around, growing big!

[LAUGHS] Okay, enough.

Let me finish my reports

and devour these potato chips.

Lieutenant.

So, how is this going to go?

Well, do you want to me to
lie or tell you the truth?

Never mind.

You like this guy, huh?

Yeah, I think so,

and yes, I'm aware there
are a lot of layers there.

All right, just as long as you know
what you're getting yourself into.

Do we ever know what we're
getting ourselves into?

- Good point. Hey.
- Hey.

You ready?

Yeah. I'm ready.

Let's do it.

Luke, remember, just be yourself.

You are your best defence.

Okay. Got it.

[BREATHING HARD]

- Hey, you okay?
- I'm just feeling a little bit dizzy.

- Sit down.
- No, no, that's okay, it'll pass.

[BREATHING HARD]

- Yeah, I'm fine.
- [LUKE] You sure?

Yeah.

- Connor!
- What is it?

- Hey!
- I don't know.

I don't... I don't think I'm okay.

Okay, um... what do we do?

- Call a doctor.
- You should lay down.

- No, no, no, the hearing.
- I'll explain.

[LUKE] I got you, I got you...

[PANTING] See? I told
you not to thank me yet.

Hello? Yeah, I'm calling
from... Connor O'Brien.

- [EVAN] Thank you.
- Uh-huh.

Hey, you were right.

I should have asked you
before I offered Abby that job.

I won't make that mistake again.

I hate to be thought of as a poacher.

Well, she never would have
accepted, so don't worry about it.

[CLINKING BOTTLES]

She's a special person.

I won't argue with that.

- When is she coming back from Ohio?
- Tomorrow.

- She's been gone a long time.
- Four days.

A long time.

Yes, it's almost a week.

Yeah.

It'll be good to see her again.

We all miss her.

Mick, how would you feel...

- if I asked Abby out?
- Out?

- Out where?
- To dinner,

or lunch, or coffee.

- You mean like a date?
- Kinda.

Are you asking my permission
to court my daughter?

I guess I am.

Courting. Yeah.

Well, Abby's a grown woman.

She can do whatever she wants.

I know that.

But thanks for asking.

Uh-huh.

So what do you say?

He says yes.

Hey. How are you?

Uh, the doctor said it was
just a minor dizzy spell.

Lack of sleep and dehydration.

I'll water you like a plant.

What happened with the hearing?

Margaret was able to postpone it a week.

Thank you so much, Margaret. That'll
give me enough time to prepare.

Hey, are you sure you're okay?

Sure.

Yeah, the doctor gave me some juice,

and I felt better right away.

- I'll make a note, drink more juice.

You sure?

Yes. Yes, I'm sure. Thank you.

You guys just head home,

and wait for word.

Okay.

Connor...

- Don't do that again.
- Okay.

You scared me.

- Take care of yourself.
- I already am, see?

Bye.

- See ya.
- See you guys.

Bye.

Oh, man...

So, just a dizzy spell, huh?

I thought my heart was going to explode.

What did the doctor really say?

Apparently, I came as close
to having a heart attack

as you can without actually having one.

What?

She wants to run a
lot of tests next week.

Shouldn't you be in bed?

She seemed to think so.

Well, what else are you supposed to do?

Rest.

Change my diet.

Drink water, not coffee.

Get plenty of exercise.

Oh, it's very important to relax.

Great, relax.

Now on top of everything else,
I have to work on relaxing.

I don't know, maybe I
should get a second opinion.

You're looking for a doctor who
will tell you to drink more coffee

and increase your stress levels?

You never know, they might be out there.

All right, let's get back to it. Ahem.

And I was thinking
about doing that thing

with the feta-stuffed tomatoes.

Yeah, with the garlic butter...

Hey, Jess, my dad's calling.
I'll see you at home, okay?

Hey, Dad, what's up?

- Can you talk?
- Sure.

I mean, are you alone?

Uh, well, yeah. I... guess.

I just wanted to give you a heads-up.

Okay, about what?

Well, you might be hearing
some things in the days ahead,

and I just wanted to
give you fair warning.

Warning about what?

I've run into a bit of bad luck.

Investments, whatnot, and, uh, well...

Okay, what are you saying?

It's nothing I can't handle,

but there might be some, um...

unpleasant publicity.

Dad, what are you talking about?

Dad?

Just don't believe everything
you're going to hear.

David...

I love you.

Did that relieve your stress?

[SIGHS]

It made it worse.

Every time he said "empty your mind,"

I just kept worrying about Luke's case.

Oh, so that's when you fell over?

No.

That's when I was deciding
what tie to wear to court.

Okay, I think we might need
to try something simpler.

What do you do when you want to unwind?

- This is gonna sound silly.
- I won't judge.

There's a fire pit outside
the house where I grew up.

It's down by the water in the backyard.

We used to sit around it

and make s'mores, and
sing songs, and just...

just talk about everything.

- You and who else?
- My family.

My brother and my sisters.

They are pretty crazy, but...

I love 'em.

See? You're calmer already.

I am, aren't I?

What do you think that means?

It might mean you come
from a happy family.

[CHUCKLES]

Uh, well, that would mean you
don't know the whole story.

[CHUCKLES] I think I've heard enough.

Oh, and don't forget your
mother's art show is this evening.

Right.

Uh, you wanna come with?

- Will your gran be there?
- You bet.

- Then I'm in.
- Sweet.

I think I nailed that
last pose, the shavasana.

- Brilliant.
- Beautiful.

[UPTEMPO JAZZ MUSIC PLAYS, HUM OF CROWD]

- Wow...
- Yeah.

I had no idea Chesapeake
Shores had an art scene.

- We are full of surprises.
- Margaret!

Oh, I hope my son is
not working you too hard.

Not half as hard as he works himself.

Hi, Arthur.

Look at everybody.

The party couldn't possibly
be better than this, eh?

I guess.

- I can't breathe in here.
- Oh, do you want to go get some air?

- Please.
- Okay.

Arthur, you aren't enjoying
this very much, now, are you, eh?

Are you kidding?

These "yes men" following
the latest trends.

Makes me sick.

I always let Elaine take
care of this nonsense.

She enjoyed the game of it.

I only wanted to paint.

- Really?
- Yes.

When I was finished, I never
cared what happened to a painting.

If the critics liked it or not.

Just the feeling of
the brush on the canvas,

that's what mattered.

Well then, why did you agree to
put yourself through all this?

For Elaine.

She'd like the idea that I...

had one last hurrah. [LAUGHS]

Well, if you had your druthers,
what would you rather be doing?

If she were here...

I'd rather be dancing.

Ah...

[GLASSES CLINK]

- These paintings are amazing.
- I know, they are.

- Look at that one.
- Stunning.

Hey, do you two want anything to drink?

I'm going to brave the open
bar and see what I can get.

- That would be great.
- Sure.

Okay, wish me luck.

- Good luck.
- Thanks.

Okay, how is he really?

What do you mean?

I mean, what did the
doctor actually say to him?

Why would he tell me
more than he tells you?

- You're family.
- Oh, I know how it is.

You work together, you
sometimes get closer than family.

I don't know about that.

Okay.

But you do take care of him.

Keep doing that, okay? He needs it.

Spoken like a true older sister.

- Spoken like a true younger sister.
- [LAUGHING]

- Are you all right?
- What?

Yeah, I'm fine.

What?

Something's bothering you.

Okay.

Um, my dad called me today, and...

Well, you met him. You know
what a private person he is...

- Very.
- ... and, uh, he told me

he's going through some troubles,

and then at the end
of the conversation...

he told me he loved me,

and he's never done that before.

So I think something
might be really wrong.

Wow.

Yeah, and I called him
over and over again,

I left text messages, nothing...

Did you talk to your mom?

No, I don't want to upset her
in case she's not in the loop,

and knowing my father and mother,

she's definitely not in the loop.

Thanks for telling me.

- Thanks for keeping me in the loop.
- Of course.

Well, don't you look suave.

Really? I was going for dapper.

Everybody seems to love the show.

- Congratulations.
- [SIGHS] Yeah.

Whew...

Thank you.

You know, I have been
concentrating on this so long,

I don't know what I'm
going to do tomorrow.

I have an idea.

- You do?
- Yeah.

We haven't really talked about
where we're going, have we?

We've both kind of avoided that.

We have.

I wasn't sure you
wanted to talk about it.

Well, I wasn't sure you
wanted to talk about it.

Maybe I didn't, but I do now.

You know, ever since
I was in that plane...

Making the, uh,
"necessary, urgent landing"?

Yeah, that one.

Anyway, Abby's been doing
wonderfully with the business,

and, um...

"And, um... "?

What if I took some time off?

Really?

- Mm-hmm.
- And do what?

Travel.

Like we always said we would.

Around the world,

just you and I.

I'd love that.

[SIGHS]

[♪]

- You ready?
- Because if we hurry up,

- we can still make my mom's show.
- Yes, we can take my official car,

and no, you cannot use the siren.

- Becoming Lieutenant has changed you.
- [CHUCKLES]

Hon', you okay?

I don't feel very good.

Sarah! Sarah!

Hey, hey... Hon'?
