PreviouslyonChesapeake Shores...
You sign up,you lose control.
Switching outone bad relationship
for another.
I don't feel that way with you.
Jay Ross,third-grade-teacher-
slash-playground-monitor.
You know,your mom is really into
this wedding thing.
Maybe there's a compromise.
I'm good withwhatever you want.
You mean it?
Hasn't changed, has it,
since we got married here?
"He knew thatit was time to leave."
Simon...
I knew thatyou were unhappy, Bree,
but it would hurt me too muchto know that I was responsible.
The "USS Kelsey"is no more.
Sunk bya torpedo of irony.
After 53 years,
the set of"The Good Ship Forever"
is finally destroyed
by waterfrom a leaky roof?
Hey, at leastit wasn't termites.
I mean, I sign on to beproducer of the school play,
and a week later,I'm captain of the "Titanic."
The most romantic movie ever.
You do realizeit doesn't end well, right?
Yeah, but beforethe iceberg thing,
it's true love.
Oh, look at all of thesenames of all the students,
writing them on the sets.
They're going to beall thrown away.
Ooh!
I remember when I wascast in the school play.
I was so happy.
Well, right now,I'm stupidly happy,
because I just rewrotethe ending of my play.
Wait...
is "stupidly happy" a thinglike "stupidly beautiful"?
Yeah, and didn't youjust break up with Simon
last week?
Shouldn't you be less--
-Stupidly happy?-Yeah.
And didn't you also say
that your original endingwas perfect
and that Jace and Melanie
"were bound togetherby the past
but hopeful fora love that would--"
[simultaneously]"Last forever."
I love happy endings.
Have you seen the ending?
Which isthe best part,
becauseit's realistic.
It's sad,it's depressing,
just like my play now,
where Jaceand Melanie realize
that, eventually, love fades,and so must they.
That's not happy at all.
'Cause it's not meant to be.
It's meant to be real.
I have had enough real
between work,and the ship, and...
Trace?
Yeah.
I just, I can't imaginemy life without him,
but I also cannot imaginegetting back together with him.
I'm afraid of whatit would mean if I go back.
All we needis a tall ship.
And a starto steer her by.
Yay!
Um, so what are yougoing to do now?
Uh,
I am going to startby rebuilding these sets,
and then, uh...
the rest of my life.
Yep.
We know someonewho can help fix the sets.
Really?
Yeah, he canfix anything.
He's even betterthan our grandpa.
-What's his name?-Trace Riley.
"The" Trace Riley?
Um, okay.
Well, thanksfor sharing.
Here, let's put thisover there, okay?
Right in front ofthat big wave.
Happy Birthday, Dad.
Thanks.
It's nice being ableto celebrate
with the entire family.
Yeah, it feels, uh,really great being home.
Well, we missedhaving you around.
And congrats on gettingyour club back.
It feels good to berunning the place again.
Everything's almost backto the way it was.
Everything?
How's Abby doing?
Right now, we've decidedto take some space.
To tell you the truth,
it feels a littleweird to be back,
not being a part of her life.
Well, your relationshiphas never been easy.
No, it hasn't.
But if you two are meantto be together,
you'll find your way back.
-Hey, Dad...-Hmm?
Are you going to blow outthat candle or what?
Okay.
Which meanswe can finalize the dress,
and I'd loveto book the venue,
but untilI can reach Sarah,
we're sort ofat a standstill.
Well, it's a yearuntil the wedding.
I think we have time.
Mick, it goes fast.
Well, it did with us.
Engaged in September,married in October.
That's crazy.
I don't knowwhat we were thinking.
I guess we were wonderinghow long it'd take
to call my parentsMom and Dad.
So, whatdo you think?
About the wine?
Well, it's complex,elegant, crisp,
with earthy oak undertones.
About youand me, Mick.
What are we doing?
I think we're sitting here,having a nice dinner.
I'm serious.
So am I.
Look, Megan, I don't knowwhere we're going with all this,
but right now,I'm just...
having a terrific timejust sitting here with you.
Isn't that enough?
Yeah, it's nice.

The answerhas been no
since I walked offstagein Prague.
I'm just surprisedyou're still here.
Well, I wasn't asking you.
I was asking Emma.
Trace, what do you think?
I think...
it's your decision to make.
Mr. Hall...
I mean, Mark,
I really appreciate the offer,
but I'm going to have to pass.
I guess you gotyour answer.
For now.
Emma!
It's been a pleasure.
Well, hopefully,
I'll be seeingthe both of you real soon.
Take care, Mark.
Take care, Trace.

Have you seen Kevin?
No.
I'm assuming he's doingdouble shifts at the station.
Mm... or justbusy being in love.
Well, there is that.
You look tired.
Yeah, well, I've been doingdouble shifts, too.
Dilpher Concrete?
Mm-hmm.
Apparently,he's trying to cut a deal
by naming co-conspirators.
Is he sayingyou were part of it?
Yep.
What are you going to do?
Well, unless he recants,
there's nothing I can dobut take him to court.
Where even if you win,you lose.
Mm-hmm.
No offense, but you lookkind of tired, too.
Hmm.Thank you...
Just, on top of
everything elseI'm dealing with,
now the "USS Kelsey"has been destroyed.
There was a leakin the storage container
over the winter, and...
Actually, I was wondering...
Oh, honey,I-I can't, I'm sorry.
I'm just swamped.
I'd love to,but I can't.
Okay.
I just don't knowwho else to ask.
This is a Mies van der Rohe258 daybed,
designed in 1930
with a chrome metal frame
that lifts the tuftedleather mattress.
Manufacturedin 1962,
this Bauhaus-schooldaybed
is the epitomeof mid-century modern.
Very nice...
Jess?
This couch...
has comfy cushions...
Oh, yeah.
It's a verytough decision.
Remember,
I'm your sister.
And I...
bake scones,
which I justhappen to have...
...a freshly-bakedbasket of them
on the Mies van der Rohe 258.
That is unfair.
I just think thatthe inn would benefit
from a differentaesthetic.
What's wrong withthe old one?
Nothing, except I didn'thave anything to do with it.
Why is thiseven called a daybed?
You don't sleep on it.
Jess,
this is our inn.
It's supposed to beabout sharing
and makingdecisions together.
[timer beeping]My souffle.
Is anybody hungry?
You know what, I don't thinkanybody is hungry.
Actually,I kind of am hungry.
Okay, fine, you know what?
Turn on your sister.
Join Team David.
I can't believeyou wanted to help.
I didn't.
I came hereto get help.
Oh, right.
Yeah, what's going on?
Well...
Danielle told methat she loves me.
That's great.
No, it's-it's not great.
It's not even remotely great,
because I didn't say"I love you" back.
I just...
I just kind of stood there,stunned,
and then she kissed me.
And then what did you do?
I kissed her back.
Ah, yeah...
That's not great.
And how is yourvision board coming?
Almost finished.
And?
And it's full ofinspiring quotes
and beautiful images, and...
I'm stuck.
I'm sureyou'll figure it out.
Hmm, the problem is,I know who I was,
I know who I am,
but I'm blockedas to what's next.
Well, maybe
it's just thatyou don't want to see
what your heart already knows.
You think I'm afraidof moving forward?
I think that,for the past 18 years,
you've been tryingto fix the past
or repair what was done,
but erasing the slateis not nearly as magnificent
as painting a new picture.
Mick and I have to saysomething to the kids,
don't we?
Darling, if you'reasking the question,
you already know the answer.
It just seems so premature.
I mean, I don't knowif it's going to last,
and...
how are they going to react?
I think you should giveyour children more credit,
but be sureyou have food there
when you break the news.
Food always helps.
Love is fleeting.
There is no such thingas everlasting love,
happy endings,or once upon a time.
We start in darkness,
we live in darkness,
just to face
the approaching night.
The dichotomiesbetween life and death,
happiness and sadness,good and evil...
Bree, look, I'd loveto discuss dichotomies, too,
but...
are you okay?
Wha--?
Yeah, I'm fine. I'm great.
I'm great.
We're here, we have...
the real stage,
the sets arebeing built, I'm--
Why? Do you not likethe writing?
No, the writing is,as always, poetic and lovely...
I mean,
a bit overwritten, but...
Well...
I'm not surethis is the direction
you want to go.
But it's...it's real, right?
Real as in real depressing.
Yeah.
Think about it, hmm?
I really liked what we had.
But change is good.
Not always.
-Hey.-Hey.
You know, I havea lot of respect
for the decision you made.
It's not easy to turn downan offer like that--
Trace...
--and Mark Hall can bepretty persuasive
when he wants to be.
Yeah, he's a hard guyto turn down.
He tells you everythingyou want to hear.
Listen--
Yeah, but if it soundstoo good to be true,
it usually is.
He told me you'd say that.
Well, that's becausewe disagree on a few things.
You know, for me,
it's all about staying trueto who I am.
There's a millionMark Halls out there,
but there's only one--
Trace Riley?
I was going to say you.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm serious.
Right now is the timefor you to figure out
who you want to be as an artist
and what you want to say.
You've got to knowwho you're doing it for.
[Jay, unsure]:Trace Riley?
Yeah, can I help you?
Wow. [laughs]It's really you.
This is awesome.
Uh...
Nice to meet you, uh...
Right, Jay Ross.
Sorry.
I teach third gradeat Chesapeake Elementary.
I'm directingthe school play this year.
"The Good Ship Forever"...
I was the admiral.
No way!
That's so cool.
Yeah, you would've beengreat, absolutely.
Thanks.
Anyways, look,
I'm really sorryto bother you,
but the sets were destroyed,water damage,
and I hear that Trace Riley
can build anything.
I would love to help,
but as you can see,
I have a businessto run, and...
No, no, no,of course, of course,
it's a bit of a silly request.
It's just...
You know, I'm a littleembarrassed to even come here.
It's just...
you know,we're really in a bind,
the school play is this week,
and two of my students said
that you might--
Wait a second...
Carrie and Caitlyn Winters?
Yeah.Yeah, that's the two.
I think I can make some time.
I'll come bytomorrow afternoon?
Uh, wow...
That's...You're so generous.
-All right.-Thank you.
Yeah, you got it.
Yeah, no, it's...
-It is.-I know, but...
I mean,do you love her?
I don't know.
I mean, you've beentogether for years.
Then I think I do, but...
it's just every timewe're together,
all we havein common is law.
Everything else,we just see differently...
but every so often,
we have an amazingtime together,
and I feel reallyclose to her,
but then...
I don't know.
Okay, well, Connor,
not every momentin a relationship
is supposed to be perfect.
I know, I know,
but when we have them,they don't last...
...and thenit really feels like
we just... start all over again.
Well, my advice...
don't discuss furniture.
Connor,we have a saying
in Ireland.
"The truth can't beseen with the eyes.
Only with the heart."
Okay, I'm intrigued.
Stop overthinking it.
You can't think love.
You have to feel it.
Not in the head,but in the heart.
Right, girls?
-Yep.-Yes.
Hey, where is Kevin?Is he coming?
I haven't heard he isn't.
Well, we might as wellget started, okay?
Oh, they're here.
Kevin!
And Sarah...
-Hi.-Hi, guys.
Listen, if you guyswill both take a seat,
we've got a toastto make for you.
Yeah, uh, Dad, well,before you get to the whole
"blue lady of the sky" part,
we have an announcement to make.
Kevin and I...
We just got married.
-Wow.-Seriously?
-Congratulations.-Congrats.
We didn't meanto upset you.
No, it's fine.
It's just we wantedto get married, right away,
Yeah. We're going to move overto Sarah's place
because she has a house.
Oh, that's great.
I'm going to rent a trailerfor tomorrow for the move.
Mm.
Mom, I know that you reallywanted this for Sarah and me,
and I know how muchit meant to you,
but it's just somethingthat we had to do, for us.
Honey, really,I understand.
I get it.
Okay?
In fact, I can usethe extra time.
I mean, I've got so muchgoing on at work
right now, and...
um, this wedding has just beenso time-consuming.
Whew!
And we'rehappy for you.
]Kevin]: Thanks.
Yeah, so youran away together.
That's what we wantedto do when we first met.
Do you think Mom'sever going to get over this?
Yes.
No.
I don't know.
It's probably us, right?
We're too pushy,right, probably?
Us, pushy?
No, absolutely not.
I mean, maybe.
Yes.
You know, I don't know.
I'm -I'm sorry.
I'm still processingfurniture.
What, you and David haven'tworked things out yet?
Uh, well, sort of.
Well, it started okay,with the pink sheets,
but then we started arguingabout mid-century modern again.
I have a reallyhard time believing
this is justabout furniture.
I don't know.
I honestly don'tcare about Bauhaus,
or doghouse,
or any kind of house.
It's just...
this place is truly ours,so it should feel like us.
It should feel special.
Instead of both of us,
it doesn't feel likeeither of us.
Well, have you talkedto David about it?
Not really.
I just sat on my sofa
and then he saton his daybed,
and then
we both just... sat.
Well, maybe you should trypushing the couches together.
I don't thinkthey'll fit,
and I don't mean thatmetaphorically.
I just...
They seriously...they don't fit.
You know what?
I totally understandthe whole elopement thing.
I mean, personally,
I wouldn't evenwant my parents there,
but a wedding isn't justabout the family.
It's aboutthe bride and groom.
I guess, but there'spros and cons to both.
Um, hey, could we, um,
could we talk for,like, a quick second?
Sure.
The other night,
when you saidwhat you said...
I didn't say anything back,because...
I didn't know how I felt.
What about now?
Now...
Wait, wait, wait.
Whoa, you said thatyou loved the Crabster.
Nope, thisstays in the truck.
I've had the Crabster
since freshman yearin high school!
It was the team mascot.
And where would you likethe Crabster to go?
I was thinkingthe bedroom.
In the bedroom?
The onethat we share?
Suddenly,I'm starting to think
that this isa trick question.
Excuse me.
Connor, Danielle...
What do you think of this?
-It's awesome.-It's terrifying.
All right, well, then,I guess it's yours.
Yes!
You know what,
I actuallykind of like it.
You do?
I do.
Seriously? Why?
I don't know,
it sort ofreminds me of you.
It's funny, unique,
a little weird...
sweet.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Well, you're talkingabout reputation.
Well, yeah, that, too.
Everyone I've spoken to
is completely aware
that you had nothingto do with Dilpher,
but they're trying toprotect their reputations
by avoiding yours.
So flying to New York
for a face-to-facewith the bank
wouldn't makeany difference?
No, not this time.
I know how you've feltabout this in the past,
to have anyonespeak for you
besides you,
but have you givenany more thought
to hiring a PR firm?
Oh, I'm not comfortable
putting myself outon social media
and putting outglossy brochures.
That's not exactlyall they do.
It's aboutmarket-testing responses
and creating a media campaignto target specific demographics.
Adam, I have spentmy entire life
doing business with a handshake.
It's a bravenew world, Mick.
I know this isn'twho you are
or what you believe,
but I don't see another way.
Sometimes, face to facewon't cut it.
-Mick?-Hmm?
Tell the PR firmthey're on the clock.
I'll bring everyone in.
It's going to be a late one.
You saw Springsteenat the Garden in '02.
I was there.
I got in so much trouble.
We took my dad's Buick
and drove for, like,24 hours straight.
Me too! I wasgrounded for a week.
It was worth it, though.
Best show ever.
Trace!Trace, you're here!
Hey, girls!
I missed you guys.
You know,Trace volunteered his time
to help us rebuild the sets.
That's awesome.
Are you comingto the show?
I wouldn't miss it.
Uncle Kevin'smarried.
-Really?-Yeah, they eloped.
Good for them.
Okay, break is over
for the cast and director--
Hi, Trace.
Hey, Abby.
Oh, you twoknow each other.
Right, of course. Yeah.
Um...
I had Trace dothe sets for us.
Yeah, you know, I thinkthey're going to be better
than the originals.
Absolutely.
Well, that's great. Um...
uh, these girls, though,need to get to rehearsal,
so let's, uh, let Traceget back to work.
All right.Thanks.
I wonder who's goingto get to hold up the boat.
I hope I get to.
Do you thinkwe're going to get props?
I hope so.
Okay, now,
where were we?
Let's openthat up. Okay.
Who studiedtheir lines?
I did!
Great! Nice work, okay.
Okay...
The "USS Kelsey"is ready to set sail!
And now we don't just haveour hands to steer us
but our heartsto guide the way.
Jay, do you wantto say something?
Oh, right.
That's great, guys!
Really great job!
And now they bow, or?
Yeah, yeah,definitely bows...
Let's bow.
Wow, you really haveno idea what you're doing.
Oh, none, no.
All right, guys,
next stopBroadway, wow.
Uh, let's pack up,
and make sureyou get your costumes
to Mrs. Willacy, okay?
Okay, let's go.
Brings backmemories , huh?
Mom, you look nice.
Oh, uh, yeah, I had a...
a business meeting thatgot canceled tonight,
so I decided to come seethe stars of the show.
[gasps]And here they are!
Hello, guys!
-Hi, Mimi!-Hi.
I'm the admiral,just like Grandpa.
Ah, well,I salute you, sir.
Would you like to go haveice cream to celebrate?
-Yes.-Come on.
-Ahoy!-Ahoy!
Me maties!
Do you stillsay "maties"?
Of course we do.
So...
considering I haveno idea what I'm doing,
how am I doing?
Well, this playis 53 years old,
and I think the "USS Kelsey"
will still begoing strong
long afterwe're gone.
Well, you haven't seenwhat I have in store
for the finale.
There's a very good chancethat I'm sinking this ship.
Then I guesswe're going down together.
Oh, and...
I do always keepone of these on hand
in case of emergencies, so...
and when you're done,you know,
you could use it asa personal flotation device.
Oh, okay.
Well, actually,you know what?
Oh, what is this?
So, uh...
you and Trace...
you guys go way back?
Uh, yeah.
We, um...
we dated forquite a long while.
Wow, I just madeeverything more awkward.
Thank goodnessfor juice boxes.
No, no, it's fine.
It's, uh...
it's complicated,but it's over,
and we're just, you know...
Friends?
Yeah. Yeah, just friends.
So, uh, you know,
if this doesn'tmake it more awkward,
and you feel like movingbeyond the juice boxes,
we could try food.
Dinner, maybe?
I-I just...
I have so muchgoing on right now
with the lawyers and...
Yeah, yeah...
...everything.
But, you know, I could...I could do lunch.
All right.
Uh, cheers.
All right.
This is nice.
I love your new place.
It's so romantic.
Jess?
I love my couch.
It's so cozy.
And I lovemy daybed.
It's so...
firm.
Okay, fun.
Uh, Connor,
maybe you guys wantto go get some snacks?
Yeah, yeah, that soundslike a good idea.
There's someporcini mushroom tartlets
on the counter there.
Cool.
Okay.
David, switch placeswith Jess.
Jess, switch with David.
At once.
David, you're Jess.
Jess, you're David.
Make your case.
Well,when I was attending Harvard,
we used to lounge around
on uncomfortable,uptight couches.
That's not how I talk.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
That was totally unfair.
Why don't you go first?
Okay.
Okay, well, here's the thing.
See, I purchased this couch
because it reminded meof the couch from the "Titanic,"
but it's not actuallythe couch from the "Titanic,"
because the "Titanic" sank,
and I found it online,
and I got Kevinto help me out,
and we borrowedDad's car,
but Dad's carbroke down,
but that's a whole'nother story,
and I don't want totalk about that,
and I love this couchbecause I purchased it
as, like, my firstadult purchase,
and I when I was sitting on it,
I thought, "Maybe one day,I'll own an inn,"
and that's whyI love it so much.
That's all true.
How did you know that?
Because I know you.
Well, this daybed...
was probably
really important to me
because growing up...
on my yacht...
no?
No. In my house...
Uh-huh.
I used to read on it,as a kid,
and I would read...
cookbooks,
and it's where I decidedto be a chef!
Yes.
I love this daybed.
It helped me get methrough my childhood.
It's... it's almosta part of me.
And that'swhat I'm scared of.
I'm scaredif I give up the couch,
I'll lose a partof me, too...
but I do love the daybed.
And I do love the couch.
Okay...
how about this?
We put thesesomewhere else,
and for the main room,we get, like, a--
-We each get something else.-Yes.
We just get something new,something us.
Yes, exactly.
I love you.
I love you more.
That was perfect.
That was a perfect,happy ending.
It was full of...
hope,
and promise,
and understanding,
and love.
Why can't everybodyhave a happy ending?
Why can't...
why can't I ever havea happy ending?
I mean, nobodywants to hurt,
or feel alone,
or feel horrible
just becausethey left somebody.
Right?I mean, even if...
even if you're not rightfor each other...
even if he didgo back to England,
and...
and I miss him,
and I know that I madethe right decision.
I know that,
but that doesn't make itany easier,
and I just, I.. I...
I really lovedthe way he made me feel.
I loved his smile...
and I just ruined my play.
No... no.
Hey, hey...
You didn'truin your play.
It's okay.
It's really nice to spendthe afternoon together.
We haven't done thisin so long.
Yeah,
I'm glad it worked out.
Yeah.
Hi.
Two eclairs, please...
but you've beenpretty quiet.
No, no, I'm justenjoying the day.
Well, usually,when you're this quiet,
it means you havesomething to say.
I'm guessingthis is about Abby.
I think Abby's moving on...
And?
And I'm having a little troubledealing with it.
Well, it must beso difficult.
How do you know?
I met the guy.
Oh?
You know,the funny thing is,
I actually like him.
You know,he's a good guy,
which makes iteven worse.
It's just hard seeing herwith someone else.
Maybe because you can'timagine yourself
with someone else.
Maybe you need to startthinking that way.
I'm not sureI'm ready to do that.
I just don't want youto miss out
on what's in front of you.
That I'll fall in love again?
Just keep your heart open?
Have I told you that before?
Maybe once,
when I was 18.
...Kim won't leave the stage,
and she just keeps insisting
that her son, Kyle,needs to be the admiral,
and then Jaymarches downstage...
Please stop.
And he says,"Mrs. Baxter,
I am Jay Ross,the director of this stage.
Vision and shipare mine,
and I am going tosteer them all--"
No, no, no, no, no, no!
"--To victory!"
What does thateven mean?
Oh, I have no idea.
I guess I wascaught up in the moment.
But it worked?
Yeah, I think so.
I mean, Kyle's a...he's a good kid,
but he's not the bestactor, you know?
Hey, at leastit was a happy ending.
Just like the "Titanic."
I guessthey do happen,
on occasion.
Aw...
Thank you.
Yeah.
What? I'm out ofjuice boxes.
You think a rose
is going to make up forcanceling on me?
You think I should'vegone with a bouquet?
Just so you know,
Carrie and Caitlyn werevery impressed by my dress.
After I got your text,I went to their rehearsal.
Well, I'm sorry I didn'tget a chance to see it.
I'm sorry, too.
Carrie told me you've beenhelping her with her lines,
which, apparently,you still know?
Well, I was a prettydarn good admiral in my day.
As was Kevin.
It's good to knowthat the "USS Kelsey"
is on its third generationof O'Briens.
Mm-hmm.
Megan, I'm sorryabout canceling.
Things are getting out of handat the office,
the business is changing.
The world is changing,
and I'm havingto change with it.
Old dog, new tricks?
Salty dog, new tricks.
On second thought,
I think a rosewill cover it.
Mick, our son is married.
He is.
We could havemore grandkids soon.
If we're lucky.
Mm.
Thank you.
I don't know, maybethe problem's with me, Gran.
I mean, maybe I do love her,and I'm just...
I'm picking things apartthat don't actually matter,
and maybe Danielleis the right girl for me.
Ooh, that's a lot of maybes...
and you can't hide
in a field of them.
Maybe I'm still not sure.
Or maybe you'll knowwhen you stop saying "maybe."
The thing is,
we've just becomesuch good friends, I...
I just,I don't want to lose that.
Well, that's no reason to bestaying in a relationship.
You should always likewho you love,
but you don't always lovewho you like.
Wow...
Well, and I hereI thought
he was just anothercountry-star
turned-carpenter.
You know,I once painted
my little sister'sbedroom.
Well, that's sweet.
Yeah, that'swhat I thought,
but I might haveforgotten to ask.
How old were you?
Eight.
Good news is,
I only paintedfive feet up the wall.
Neither of uscould reach any higher.
He saved the names.
People are goingto start coming in soon.
We're not supposedto be in here.
Sailboats make me nervous,plays make me nervous.
We're going to getin so much trouble.
David.
It's okay, I askedthe director.
I don't...I don't get this.
[whispering]Come on, come on.
What? I...
I don't get this.
Okay, look.
We're opening the innin a couple weeks,
and before we do,
I wanted to celebrate before,
just the two of us.
Here?-Yeah, here.
Ready?
Close your eyes.
All right, take my hand.
Turn this way.
Keep them closed.
What's happening?
This way...
Forward.
[gasping in realization]Is this--?
Okay, keep 'em closed.Keep 'em--keep 'em closed.
Are we--?
Step up, step up,step up, step up.
Okay, hold ontothe railing...
Do you trust me?
I trust you.
Open them.
I'm flying...
Jack!
I love you, David.
This is awesome!
I don't know,it just doesn't...
it doesn't feel right.
Yeah, I sort of lifted itfrom something I read.
It felt betterwhen I wrote it.
Why don't we justcontinue the metaphor?
"The river knowsthere ain't no hurry,
it's as steady as the stars,
and every shorelinehas something to say..."
♪ Winds its waydown to the sea ♪
♪ It might benear or far... ♪
♪ And it only knowsit'll get there someday ♪
That works.
It's, uh...
It's hopeful.
Yeah.
At some point,
we all end up wherewe're supposed to be.
Sometimes.
What do you say we startfrom the second verse?
I'll lead you inwith a four-bar intro?
Okay.
All right.

I'm sorry. I...
I shouldn't havedone that.
[Marc, acting]: "I don'tbelieve in happy endings,
I believe in happy beginnings,
with each momenta new chapter,
beginning with 'I do.'
I do love,
I do hope,
I do cherish...
that we always will be
husband and wife."
I think this endingworks better.
[clearing throat]Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
It's why peoplewill love this play.
It's why I love it...
that no matterwhat happens in life,
after we dealwith the pain...
there's always hope.
Okay, let's set upthe restaurant scene.
Thank you.
Isn't this great?
We haven't hung outlike this forever.
What are youtalking about?
We've been spendinglots of time together.
Well, yeah,but with your family.
What's wrongwith my family?
Well, I just wantto hang out with you,
not Jess, and Kevin,and Bree all the time,
with all their problems.
You don't likemy family much, do you?
What?
No, it's not that...
It's not thatI don't like them.
I just...
I mean, Connor, I've told you,I'm not big on families.
And that's not exactlyan answer, Danielle.
Look, I've been pushing mineaway for too long.
I can't do that again.
My familyis everything to me.
And I'm not?
Of course you are,
and I do love you,
and we have these beautiful,beautiful moments together,
but they're just,I don't know...
moments.
So I keep trying
because I want thingsto be different, but...
But?
I don't exactly knowwhat I want...
...but I think we wantdifferent things.
Look, Emma, I'm sorryabout last night.
It's no big deal.
No, it is.
I'm kind of your boss.
You know, it's notexactly appropriate.
Well, I didn't havea problem with it.
It's just...
I'm not used tosomeone like you...
a good guy.
Why'd you come backto Chesapeake...
really?
I always knewwho I was singing for,
so to speak,
but I finally figured out
that just singing for herwasn't enough.
And now?
I guess I figured things outa bit too late.
She's... moving on.
Maybe it's time for meto do the same.
Trace...
I wanted to tell youearlier...
The offerMark Hall made me
before he left?
Yeah?
I'd get a record deal
if I could convince youto come on tour with me.
Why didn't you tell me
that your deal hinged onme going back out?
Why weren't youhonest with me?
It wouldn't havechanged my decision.
You sure about that?
I mean, is that what thisis about...
a record deal?
No, Trace.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't tryingto keep it from you.
But you did.
Another announcement?
Listen, beforewe get started,
we wanted to makean announcement.
You're kidding,right?
No, I'm afraid not.
We wanted to talk to youabout us eloping.
And even though it wasthe right thing for us,
it might not have beenthe right thing
for everyone else.
We are so sorry, too,
if we tried to make youdo something
you didn't want to do, honey.
Which is why we gave thisa lot of thought...
and if it's okay,
we'd love to havea wedding reception here,
for both ofour families.
Is that okay?
Mom and Dad?
[crying joyfully]Oh, honey...
That's sowonderful.
Yes!
You're not goingto keep this simple, are you?
Cheers.
-Cheers!-Cheers.
-Cheers...-Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers!
