Donovan was in a motorcycle accident.
Stay away before something happens you can't forgive yourself for.
Maybe your mother's right.
- About the curse?

Don't cheat them out of their happiness the way you cheated me out of my homecoming glory.
According to my yearbook, I wanted to make a great discovery.
Seems like a lot of people are making discoveries.

Only four more days of high school left; how does it feel?
My life is about to completely change.
All our lives are about to change.
OK, what is happening?
I'm documenting everything about Pozner's comet.
I found this etching of the comet in the attic.
It was mixed in with this box of things you made for me when you were little. We didn't have cameras back then, so this is how they captured history.
I prefer modern technology.
This commemorates the night years ago best friends
Victoria Merriwick and Charlotte Pozner went up to the highest point in Middleton to chart the constellations.
They saw a sh**ting star and Victoria made a wish that the star turned out to be a comet.
And since they were the first to see it, they got to name it.
- Why isn't it the Merriwick Comet?
- Because Victoria's wish came true, so Charlotte got to choose the name.
- Wait. So Charlotte's wish didn't come true?
- According to the legend, everyone gets to make a wish, but not all of them get granted.
- So choose carefully, you won't get another chance for a hundred years.
- No pressure.
- Well, taking finals was pressure; this is a piece of cake.
- Well, you two made it look easy.
- We're incredibly proud of both of you.
- Hmm... It's hard to believe those were the last tests we'll ever take at Middleton High.
- You're getting nostalgic over tests?
- She's getting nostalgic over being finished with high school.
(SOFT MUSIC)
- Tell me more about the comet.
- Hmm! Well, I can tell you more about making a wish.
Your wish will only come true if you make it while watching the comet from the Middleton Observatory.
It was built on the same spot where Victoria Merriwick made her wish.
- Mhm.
- Well, I better start thinking about mine.
- Think carefully.

- I think this is the first time I've ever seen you speechless.
- Oh, shush, don't ruin it.
- That didn't last long.
- Thanks.
Are you making a wish?
- I thought our wishes were best left unspoken.
(CASSIE CHUCKLING)
- I'm so happy we came up here.
- But, Sam, this observatory was built ages after the treasure was buried. The lock couldn't possibly be here.
- Well, maybe there never was a lock.
- Whatever do you mean?
- The key is the key.
- Oh, wonderful. Now, you're talking in riddles just like your wife.
- Well, maybe this will help.
- This is what I call a treasure hunt.
- The key is an arrow pointing to the next clue.
- That's the old meeting house.
- That was demolished years ago.

- You really think?

- Yeah.
- Aww.
- You ready to go?
- Yes.
- OK. You're sure you still want to do this?

You don't give up, do you?
- Someday, you'll thank me.
- I don't know what plan you two hatched, but I don't have time, I have to go to the airport.
- What are you doing?
- What's wrong?
Is it bad luck if I open this indoors?
- Or if walk under this?
- Please stop.
- Not 'til I cr*ck... this.
- I get that you're inviting bad luck into your life; what I don't get is why.
- Maybe I'm trying to show you I don't believe in superstitions.
- Clearly.
- But I do believe when you came into my life that it was... good luck.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
- That's sweet, but there are forces out there
- that can't be explained.
- How do you explain us?
- Over.
- Even after I invited
years of bad luck on myself?
I didn't ask you to do that.
That's what you do when something's worth believing in.
So what do you say?

- I guess we'll have bad luck together.
(ACOUSTIC GUITAR MUSIC)
- I'm so happy for you.
Call me later, OK?

- Hmm.
- I am happy that your wish came true.
- I, uh... I had a feeling that he was gonna get a scholarship.
- Hmm.
- But actually, that wasn't my wish.
- I promise not to tell
Abigail and Donovan what you really wished for.
- They're back together?
- Just like when Victoria Merriwick made that first wish on the comet, she hoped her sister would find true love. And like Victoria, you wished unselfishly
And that's the real secret to making wishes come true.
Mm-hmm.

Doug tell you we talked at the observatory?
- Ah, he did.
- Mm-hmm.
He, uh... he also said that you support me taking the job.
- I do.
- Really?
See, I figured that your wish would have been me turning it down.
Hmm...
My wish was for you to do what would make you happy.
Mm-hmm. I did.
(SOFT MUSIC)
Of course I'm not taking that job.
What makes me happy is just being here with you.
Ditto.
