06x07 - It's Not for Me to Say

[bunniefuu]

[NARRATOR]
Previously on Chesapeake Shores:

I was framed.

The FBI knows where you are.
They put a tap on this phone.

- What if he is innocent?
- Do you believe him?

I've heard of this test.
They generate an ancestry report.

Maybe we find distant relatives.

I think I like romance.

[EVAN] So do I.

- Kevin and I are...
- She's pregnant.

[EXCLAIMING]

[TRANQUIL MUSIC PLAYING]

There's your baby's heart.

- Pumping like a champ.
- Amazing to see, isn't it?

Remember, we don't
wanna know the gender.

I'll tell you when you shouldn't look.

I used to think ultrasound images
looked like sea creatures,

but not when it's your sea creature.

[CELL PHONE CHIMES]

Oh, don't look.

[VOCALIZING]

[TRANQUIL MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, hey, honey, are you still, uh,
"Baby Swiss, hold the mayo"?

Actually, I'm more of a Nutella and
banana on whole wheat kind of guy.

- Oh, you're here.
- I am.

- This isn't Iceland.
- Not a fjord in sight.

You were only gone for a week.
What happened?

- Hope your deal didn't fall through.
- No, the opposite.

I was able to negotiate one of
those great fair-but-really-I-win deals.

And I can wrap up the details from here.

Hm!

I thought the whole reason
you had your meeting in Iceland

was so you could climb a glacier.

- Vatnajökull.
- Hm.

- Why did you blow off your glacier?
- Well...

As you know, I've climbed many glaciers,

mountains, volcanos.

- Landforms of all kinds.
- Exactly.

I think I might
start traveling a little less.

Why? Adventure's in your blood.
You said so yourself.

I did. But, lately, my blood has enjoyed

spending a little more
time here, at home.

Mm.

What are you making?

This is Caitlyn's new thing.
Cucumber and peanut butter sandwich.

Her best friend, Sloan,
has turned her onto them.

Whatever she likes.
I'm not one to judge.

I went through a mean
fried pickle phase.

I don't think it's a phase
when you still eat them.

- Want me to have Mandrake get us some?
- Maybe later.

Uh, if I was a yogurt cup,
where would I be?

It's weird. I know
we just started dating,

but I feel like I have
known you forever.

Aw, kind of sounds like you love me.

[BOTH LAUGH AWKWARDLY]

[WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

- [MICK] Hey, Evan.
- Hey.

Abby, have you got a minute? There's
something I'd like to run by you.

Not a problem. I'm late for a thing.
Good to see you, Mick.

Yeah. Am I interrupting something?

No. No. No, no.

Evan was definitely going to be leaving.

Uh... What's going on?

I've been considering something
for a while

and, uh, I wanna
make sure you're okay with it.

Tell me you're not gonna
refinish floors in the kitchen again?

Oh, I am.

I'm also asking your mother to move in.

What, in here? With us?

Yeah. What do you think?

It's a big decision.

It is. You know what? Honestly, I just

miss her when she's gone. You know?

This way, while she's
here in Chesapeake,

we'll have more time together.

- Do you think you're ready?
- Do I not seem ready?

Come on, it's been a rough year.
Your recovery hasn't been easy.

I couldn't have gotten this far
without all your help,

without the support of the whole family.

Well, we're here for you.

But aren't you supposed
to not start a new relationship

in the first year of recovery?

Is it really a new relationship when

you've already had five kids together?

I don't know. I want you and Mom to have

your best chance at happiness together.

I want the same thing, sweetheart.

So do I have your blessing
or some semblance of it?

Consider yourself blessed.

Excellent. Thank you.

I'm gonna pick your mother up
and take her to dinner at Giovanni's.

Ooh, romantic.

- I try.
- [LAUGHS]

- [MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY ON TV]
- Hey. How did it go?

The loan officer said we
have inconsistent cash flow.

Why can't banks understand that the plan

to operate a profitable vineyard

is the way to create
consistent cash flow?

Some banks
can't see past grids on a spreadsheet.

Gotta find a way to grab their attention
and reel those suits in.

[VOLUME INCREASES]
Disgraced CEO, Dennis Peck,

has finally been extradited
from the Maldives

- to face charges in the U.S.
- [POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]

Peck allegedly bilked millions from

his clients, leaving many penniless.

The FBI conducted a worldwide manhunt...

Man, I knew this was coming,
but seeing my father in handcuffs is...

I'm so sorry.

The only thing he really cared about
was the Peck name.

This must be k*lling him.

- What happens now?
- Nothing good.

It's gonna be like chum in the water.
There will be a new media frenzy.

- Your poor mom and sister.
- They're barely holding it together.

It's not like the Peck name
is gonna help us get a loan now.

Okay.

So this is obviously
pretty overwhelming.

We can't let your father's mess
be our mess.

We have to step away from it,
we just focus on the good things.

We get a loan with the O'Brien name

and just move forward with our lives.

[BREE] Mmm!

I can't believe
you don't like a good Danish.

We don't agree
on a lot of the same things.

- Hm. That's what's so great about us.
- That we don't agree on anything?

No. We agree on the important things.

I just love that we're not,
you know, one of "those" couples.

What are "those" couples?

You know.

"We're so alike.

We like the same music, the same movies,

the same TV shows, the same food.

We're soulmates."

Ridiculous.

- You don't believe in soulmates?
- Do you?

Eh... I'm on the fence.

Well, there you go. Another difference.

Um, hey, so my dad or my brother

probably already told you this.

Mm. That you used to play the Autoharp.

No, that's not...

- Who told you that?
- Actually, Kevin told me.

Ugh.

So, what were you
afraid they were gonna tell?

- Nothing. Never mind. You don't know.
- Oh, no. Now I have to know.

All right. It's my birthday on Friday.

But I hate birthdays. Always have.

I don't like the attention,
the parties, the gifts.

I have everything, so why...?
Why are you looking at me like that?

It's my birthday on Friday too.

- No. Is it?
- [WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

It is. But I don't much
like birthdays either.

Right? Really, it's an excuse for
people to feel guilty and buy things.

- Took the words right out of my mouth.
- Okay. So...

- on our birthday...
- Mm?

...no gifts, no cards, no flowers.
Just another day?

Absolutely.
We totally agreed on something.

[GASPS] We did.

I guess we're the same sign.
Born on the same day.

Hey, maybe we are soulmates.

I think we ordered too many tomatoes.
Will they all fit?

Don't worry, I got a system.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hello?

- [WOMAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
- Speaking.

Tell him no.

- Who was that?
- A lawyer.

My father's court-appointed lawyer.

She said he urgently wants to see me.

- Where is he?
- In the federal penitentiary in D.C.

That's a far cry from his luxury suite
at the Hay-Adams.

We can do this later.

No. Jess. Like you said,
it's his mess, not ours.

[POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]

- Did the lawyer say anything else?
- She doesn't have to.

There's only one reason
he wants to see me.

Because he needs my help, and
nobody in the family will talk to him.

You know, when we were kids,

the only time
he would ever spend any time with me

was when my parents were fighting.

He'd try to win me over
to his side to spite my mom.

And those were my fond memories of him.

- Oh!
- Oh.

- Sorry.
- It's okay.

Not my finest moment.

Have you ever told your father
how you feel?

No. Why? What would be the point?
It's not like he's gonna change.

It's not for his sake, it's for yours.

What, you mean, like,
to have, like, a cathartic moment?

Look, Jess, I know
I've been a little tightly wound lately.

Yeah. You could say that.

You're really suggesting
I go visit my father in prison?

Yeah. I think I am.

You need some sort of closure.

Yeah,
but the thought of seeing him again...

I know.
But you have to tell him how you feel.

[SIGHS] Hm...

I gotta figure out what her secret is.
Sally makes the best coffee.

Better than here at the firehouse?

Oh, yeah.
The guy in charge can't get it right.

Oh. Who's that?

It's me.

- Oh. Hm.
- Yeah.

Listen, something happened this morning

when Sarah and I
went to the doctor's office.

Something serious?

No, no, like, baby's
fine and she's fine.

But, yeah,
I guess it could be kind of serious.

So we were looking
at the ultrasound and...

I looked a little too close.

[WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

I don't follow.

I know the sex, the gender,
whatever you wanna call it. I know it.

- And you didn't wanna know?
- No. We were supposed to be surprised.

Oh! Surprise!

- What did Sarah say?
- I haven't told her.

We were supposed to learn it together,

share that special moment
when our baby was born.

And now you have to
fake that special moment.

I think I can do it.

Mm... I hate to throw water
on your excellent plan there,

but do you think you can
keep a secret like that for a month?

You couldn't even keep from telling Luke
I played the Autoharp.

That's different.
Because I did that to embarrass you.

[CHUCKLES]

- What do you want from me?
- I don't know, some encouragement.

Oh! You've always
been terrible at keeping secrets.

Okay, thanks for the pep talk.

No, I'm reminding you of that
so that you keep that in mind, okay?

But I think you can do it.
You and Sarah love each other,

and you're gonna have
a beautiful baby boy.

Wow. I think you
might be able to do this.

Yeah.

- It's my birthday on Friday.
- I'm not gonna get you a present, okay?

- I've learned my lesson.
- It's also Luke's birthday on Friday.

- You and Luke have the same birthday?
- Mm-hm.

You must be soul...

Don't say "soulmates."
I swear, I'll brain you.

- Okay. What's the problem?
- I told him I didn't want any gifts.

He agreed.
He said he didn't want any either.

- But?
- You know the people

that say that they don't want a gift,
but really they want a gift?

Yeah. What if he thinks I'm one of
those? Or what if he's one of those?

Oh, they're the worst.

But if he gets me a gift
and I don't get him a gift,

then I'm gonna come off
as some total insensitive clod.

Well put.

Yeah. So can you tell him
that I really don't want a gift?

So you want me to say to him,
"No matter what you do,

don't get anything nice for my sister"?

Yes. Mm-hm.

- [LIGHT JAZZ PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
- What have you heard from Nell?

Still having a good time in Ireland?

Oh, yeah. Her cousin Nora
is starting a day care center

for the children in the village,
and, uh, she's helping. She loves it.

Oh, it's great.

It is.

It's really good to have you back.

It's good to be back.

And Giovanni's.

Definitely beats the empty fridge
at my place.

I don't think you should ever
have to come home to an empty fridge.

I'll go shopping tomorrow.

And there is a lasagna
that definitely needs to be defrosted.

Or you could always come home
to the fridge at our place.

It's always full.

What do you mean?

Mick O'Brien...

are you asking me to
move into your house?

It used to be your house too.
It still is, I think.

- Mick.
- I like that you're smiling.

Yes, but, um, it's a
lot to take in. Uh...

What about your recovery?
Honey, you're doing so well.

I wouldn't wanna
jeopardize your progress.

I go to NA meetings regularly
and I talk to my sponsor every day.

Besides, it makes so much sense.

You're renting an apartment in L.A.,

you're spending money
on a mortgage here.

It's not really a problem.

No, but I could go and fix your
place up, and you could rent it out.

That way you'd have more time with
the grandkids. Why not just move in?

- Because it makes so much sense?
- Yes.

Because it's so practical.

Exactly.

I think I'll just stay at my place.

- What?
- Mick.

Sometimes the practical reasons
are not necessarily the right reasons.

- I didn't mean to ask you to...
- Let's just leave it for now, okay?

But if you're interested,
we could split an apple tart.

[POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]

[SERENE MUSIC PLAYING]

[KEVIN] Thanks.

- Grabbed you a coffee.
- Oh, hey. Thanks, Kev.

Oh, yeah, no problem.
Thanks for seeing me.

No problem, man.

So, uh, what's up?

I wanna talk to you
about Bree's birthday.

She really hates birthdays.

Right.

So I'm not getting her a present.

Good.

Okay.

I mean... she meant it, right?
She really doesn't want a present.

Yeah, no, no. She knows there's people

that say, like, "I
don't want a present,"

but they really want a present.

- She is not one of those people.
- Right.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

And she asked you
to come here and tell me that?

I'm not supposed to say,
but, yeah, she did.

- Right. Huh.
- [CHUCKLES]

What?

No, it's...

Well, it's just that when people say

they don't want something that much,

- it, eh, sometimes means...
- No. No. No.

She's really serious.

Okay.

[LILTING PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

I mean, if she gets me something
and I don't get her anything,

I mean, I could look like a, uh...

- Insensitive clod?
- Yeah.

- Wait, did she say that?
- No.

Hm.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- But she wasn't talking about you.
- Right.

Well, thanks, Kev. You've given me a lot
to think about. Really.

Okay.

Ah. Well, see you.

- Don't get her something.
- I read you loud and clear.

Hey.

- Hey. Do you want some coffee?
- Uh, no. Have you seen Bree?

She's not at her house.

No. This is usually
when she goes for her morning walk.

- What do you need?
- Birthday stuff.

- Kevin, don't get her a present.
- I know. I've learned my lesson.

Oh, actually, wait. Uh... [CHUCKLES]

While you're here, I could use
a male perspective on something.

I have that.

- Okay, so Evan and I were hanging out.
- As you do.

Mm-hm. And...

Well, he said that he feels
like he's known me forever.

And I responded lightheartedly:

Um...

"Sounds like you love me."

- It was lighthearted.
- Still, bold.

I know. It was just... It just came out.

I did not mean to
bring up the love topic.

And now it's just out
there staring at us.

What did Evan say?

- Nothing.
- Nothing?

Well, Dad came in and interrupted us,

but then he sort of fled.

- Fled?
- Well, he left quickly.

- Quickly?
- Yes. Okay, I just...

But how do I keep this
from being so awkward?

Okay, well, technically,
what you should do

is just have an open
and honest conversation with him.

[WHIMSICAL PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

- But?
- Might freak him out even more.

Okay, so you think he's freaking out.
What do I do?

Can I just speak on behalf of all men?
I don't know.

- [GROANS]
- Okay?

Although, it's given me
a little insight into my own situation.

- Your Bree birthday problem?
- No, a different thing.

- I can have more than one thing.
- Yeah, I guess. What's your thing?

[CLEARS THROAT] Okay.

Now...

I have no idea what the gender is
of my unborn baby, but...

Oh, my gosh, you know.
Is it a boy or a girl?

Oh, boy.

- [GASPS] Is that a clue?
- No.

[YELLS]

So?

- What do you think?
- You just sent it a half an hour ago.

Yeah, I need your first impression. Did

my mission statement sound pretentious?

I'm going for confident.
Did I veer into swagger?

No, it's great.
Your financial plan is strong.

My first impressions are very impressed.

Then why did the banks turn me down?

Is it the thing with David's father?

I don't know,
but you can't take it personally.

Oh, how can I not?

I poured my soul
into every word and chart.

I can see that.

It's giving me
flashbacks to high school.

A guy dumps you, you have no idea why,

so you replay every angle.

"Why doesn't he like me?
What did I do wrong?"

Jess, Jess, take a deep breath.

Better take another one.

All right. Now, listen.

Who cares why some idiot
dumped you in high school?

You found David, the right guy.
That's all that matters.

So you're saying
I should date the right bank?

Let me rephrase.

When I was growing this company,

I was turned down by a myriad
of banks and investment firms.

It's hard, I get it.
But your financial plan is excellent.

My only advice to you
is to expand your pool

of potential investors
and just keep trying.

Okay. Thanks, Dad.

By the way,
I heard through the family grapevine

that you're going to ask Mom
to move in with you.

I wish my Internet speed
was as fast as that grapevine.

I just want you to know
I'd be happy for you both.

Thank you, honey.
That means a great deal to me.

But I'm afraid that grapevine
might have gotten ahead of itself.

Really? Mom said no?

I may not have expressed myself
as romantically as I could have.

Well, as a wise man once said:

- "Just keep trying."
- [LAUGHS]

[CHEERFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

- [POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]
- [DOOR ALERT BUZZES]

You got five minutes.

- Thank you for, uh...
- I'm not here for you. I'm here for me.

Look at you.

You hurt so many people
you were supposed to care about.

Your family, your clients.

Not just hurt, you ruined their lives.

What kind of man does that?

- David, please, just...
- No, I don't wanna hear your excuses.

I've wasted so much time...

- trying to please you.
- David, I'm...

I'm so sorry I wasn't a better father,
but I always loved you.

Now, maybe I haven't said those words...

You were waiting for the right moment?

I should have said them sooner.

If you had just shown some interest,

- just acted like you gave a damn...
- I do.

That's why I made sure
your trust fund is safe.

I don't care about my trust fund.

Look, if you wanna prove that you care,

then give the money you stole
back to your clients.

I did not take their money.

Right. Oh, yeah. You were framed.

- That's right.
- Okay. By who?

- I don't know.
- Please, just stop.

You need to talk to Byron Stigers.

Your old golfing buddy?

And CFO of Peck Enterprises.
He's the only one who stood by me.

He knows the politics of the company,
he might know who's responsible.

[GUARD] Almost time.

David, I have a small apartment
near Dupont Circle.

Nobody knows about it.

Yeah, of course you do.

Connecticut Avenue.

There's a small safe
hidden behind the fireplace.

You will find a flash drive in there.

You don't stop, do you?

- You'll have to find somebody else.
- You're the only one that I trust.

You can't manipulate me anymore.

The combination to the safe

is the license plate number
of your first bike.

[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

- What?
- The green Phantom Schwinn.

Vintage tags.

You rode that bike every day.

I only wish that I had told you

how happy I was that you loved my gift.

[POIGNANT MUSIC PLAYING]

- [SERENE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [BIRDS SINGING]

Hey. Waiting on the kayak?

No. Just thinking.

Oh, that could be dangerous. What about?

When Abby was born,
did you know she was going to be a girl?

Oh, yeah. We wanted to know everything.

We were terrified.

With you, we were more relaxed.
We just, uh... let it be a mystery.

Yeah, that's what Sarah and I wanted.

To tell you the truth,
I was thrilled when Abby came along.

I don't know,
the thought of raising a boy,

it just... intimidated me, I guess.

How so?

Well, I didn't have
a very good relationship with my dad,

and his expectations for Thomas and I
were so high,

we couldn't live up to them.

You did okay with me, Dad.

Thank you, Kevin.

With you, I just thought to myself,

"What would Dad do in this situation?"

Then I would do the opposite.

What did you wanna be when you grew up?

Well, my father wanted me to follow him
into the construction business

or be a boxer.

So I did both.

You boxed?

Oh, yeah. I fought in the amateur

circuit all over Baltimore for a while.

- What? I never knew that.
- Mm-hm.

Well, I mean,
I didn't set the world on fire.

No fancy footwork.
But, uh, I could take a punch.

So I would stand there and let them
whale on me till they got tired

and then, boom,
left hook and down they'd go.

I was undefeated. Until I was defeated.

[LAUGHS] Wow.

I didn't ask what your dad wanted.
I asked what you wanted to be.

Oh.

Just to be a good man, I guess.

- You've done that.
- Have I?

I think the jury might still be out.

How would you feel...

if I told you
that you were gonna have a grandson?

[GENTLE UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

I would be very proud.

And I would spoil that kid rotten.

I'd expect nothing else.

So happy for you.

- How are you doing?
- Toy bench arrived. Isn't it great?

Oh! Matches the bassinet perfectly.

Yeah, neutral but creative and fun.

How could a baby of any gender
not love this stuff?

I'm pretty sure we're having a girl.

- You are?
- Mm-hm.

Why?

Oh, just mother's intuition.

And sometimes we talk.

- Cool.
- I don't mean in words.

But we communicate.

I think the O'Briens and the Mercers
will make a great village.

Yeah, you're gonna be a great mom.
Girl, boy, whatever.

Be honest. Which do you want?

All that matters is
he or she is healthy.

Absolutely.

Yeah.

Hey, what do you
think of the name Celia?

[WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

Yep.

Hey, guys. How was school today?
Learn anything new?

Jill Jacovino
can flip her eyelids inside out.

Wow, that will come
in very handy someday.

I just got a notification from X-Y-Me.

My DNA results are ready tomorrow.

Perfect timing. You
can tell us at dinner

whether we're related to leprechauns.

Oh, Grandpa. All right, I'm gonna go.

I'll see you ladies tomorrow.

- [CAITLYN] See you. Bye.
- [MEGAN] Love you. Goodbye.

Meg, uh, you got a minute? I'd
like to get your opinion on something.

Uh...

Sure.

Mick, what is all this?

Well, I remember you saying you wanted

either a pergola or a gazebo out here.

- So I built you a "pergebo."
- [CHUCKLES]

It was on my list.

You nut. I mentioned that years ago.

- Yeah, well, it was a very long list.
- [LAUGHS]

Oh, honey.

[TENDER UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

I love it.

It's beautiful.

Meg, I don't wanna just
share a house with you.

I wanna share our lives.

I want you to move in with me.

Careful! The stain's not dry yet.

- Oh...
- [LAUGHS]

- Well, I almost got it right.
- Oh, honey.

- You did. You got it just right.
- Really?

Yes, but it's such a big step.

I just need a little more time
to think it through, okay?

Sure.
That will give the stain time to dry.

Mm-hm. Oh, you big lug.

- Don't get it on me.
- Sorry.

- What's the matter?
- I went to D.C. this morning.

- To your father's apartment?
- Mm-hm.

- I thought you decided not to go.
- I know. But...

I just had to know.
I found the flash drive.

I couldn't even remember
the license plate number.

I had to look up
an old picture of that bike.

- He remembered it?
- I guess.

Now I'm regretting it.

What's on it?

Lots of stuff.

Documents, e-mails, recordings.

It shows
how ruthless my father could be, but...

[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

I think he really was framed.

[CHEERFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

[ABBY] Okay. So we're finally
back on schedule with the electrical.

We are a week behind with the shingles,
but still on budget.

- Three of my favorite words.
- Oh, are you free tonight?

We're having a family dinner over here,

and Carrie's gonna
announce her DNA results.

I'd love that.

Great. I will alert the homestead.

And, um, speaking of love,
what you said the other day?

What? What?

You said the reason I feel like I know

you so well is because I love you.

I, um... Yeah, I
didn't mean... I just...

I was looking for the yogurt and...

Which begs the question,

did you say that because...

you love me,

or just that you think I love you?

Wait, does that mean
that you do love me?

You answer first.

Why don't we answer the question
at the same time?

I'll allow it. On three.

One...

two...

three.

- I love you. Oh! [LAUGHS] Wow.
- You love me. [LAUGHS]

Whoo. Just so you know,
I am crying on the inside.

Evan...

[TENDER MUSIC PLAYING]

I... I do love you.

Actually, it kind of scares me
how much I love you.

Me too.

You too what?

It's scary.

And I love you.

Look at us. We love each other.

Yeah.

[LUKE] This is a nice day, huh?

[BREE] It is.

Just another day.

Yeah. First day of
the rest of our lives.

Ugh. I'm sorry, I hate to use clichés.

- Well, it's a cliché because it's true.
- [SIGHS]

I want you to know I appreciate you
not making a big deal out of today.

Oh, no problem.

And I also want you to know
that I understand.

[LILTING PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

What do you understand?

Kev talked to me,
he told me that he talked to you,

and he meant well, but he might
have given you the wrong idea.

Uh...

Confused?

It's okay.

- What's okay?
- Luke, there's a bag at your feet.

Oh.

That's just my toothpaste
and some vitamins.

Oh, right, right, right.

It's okay if you got me something.

You didn't want anything.

No, I know. I said that, and I meant it.

But I also understand
if you second-guessed yourself,

you know, thinking,
"Maybe she didn't really mean it."

I did think that.

- Yeah.
- But then I changed my mind.

Okay. It's totally fine.
As a matter of fact, um...

Happy birthday.

It's a terrarium. For your cactuses.
Cacti. Do you like it?

- You got me something.
- Yeah.

I didn't want you to feel bad
because you got me something.

You got me something, right?

- In the bag?
- Well...

Oh, boy.

Oh, no.

Look, do you want me
to get you something?

No. I really didn't want you
to get me something.

- I just thought...
- That I'd get you something.

Yes. I mean, no. I don't... [GROANS]

Bree, when I say something, I mean it.

I do too. Me too.

- That's what I thought.
- Yeah, and I thought that you...

God, now you feel bad.

Kind of, but...

You know what, this never happened.

It's going away.
It's going bye-bye, forever.

It did happen,
so I have to get you something.

No, no, no. I don't want that.
I don't want things. I don't want gifts.

I don't want cards, okay? I just want
to know that you care about me.

That is truly all I...

Here you go.

Thank you.

Oh, you're welcome. Enjoy.

"Happy birthday to
Luke and not to Bree."

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

That's good.
That is very, very, very good.

- Would you like some?
- I mean...

- It's your cake.
- Oh, there's lots to go around.

And it's mint-chocolate chip.
It's only my favorite.

Oh, that's a total coincidence.

Of course.

- Happy just-another-day.
- Happy just-another-day to you.

- Oh!
- Mmm.

- Oh!
- Mmm.

[TRANQUIL MUSIC PLAYING]

This will be fun.
I love not celebrating Bree's birthday.

Feta cheese.

- What?
- I am so craving feta cheese.

- You hate feta.
- Yeah, with a passion.

But I guess a certain little someone
has other ideas.

Hey, what about a Greek name
like Athena or Olympia?

Yeah, add them to the list.

Okay, what's going on?
You've been acting weird.

I'm fine. We should get to the house.
They'll have feta there.

I can't go to a family gathering
if things are weird.

- Things aren't weird.
- They're so weird.

Okay, for me, this is scarier
than running into a burning building.

Please, come on, just talk to us.

Okay. Fine.

I have been keeping a secret from you,

and it's kind of been driving me nuts.

Okay, what kind of a
secret? A bad secret?

No. No, it's good, maybe.

Okay, I kind of glanced
at the ultrasound

screen when I wasn't supposed to.

- What?
- I know what our baby is.

- The doctor clearly said, "Don't look."
- And I looked.

Come on. You're telling me you don't

look when someone says, "Don't look"?

- It's instinctive.
- Dude.

I'm sorry. It just happened.

Well?

Well, what?

Oh, I'm not gonna tell you
and ruin the surprise.

But you know. So it won't be the same.

Wait, if you know,
is it because you saw something

or because you didn't see something?

Don't overthink it.

If you just glanced at the screen,

you wouldn't know the gender
unless you saw something.

We're having a boy, aren't we?

We're having a boy.

I know that you were sure
that it was going to be a girl.

Seriously, who cares? There's nothing

about this baby that
I don't love already.

- We'll have to wean him off feta.
- We'll love him even if he loves feta.

Yeah, true.

[TENDER MUSIC PLAYING]

- Hey.
- Hey.

Bree home yet?

Nope, the guest of no-honor
has not arrived yet.

- I'm just making an ordinary dinner.
- Mmm!

Smells very ordinary.

If you lived here,
you'd be home already.

Hm. We will talk about that later.

[LILTING MUSIC PLAYING]

[MEGAN] Mick.

What are you girls up to?

- Waiting on our X-Y-Me results.
- Oh, cool.

They're just coming in.
Taking forever to download.

- You really should get a quicker modem.
- [CAITLYN] We really should.

I think you girls spend enough time
on the Internet as it is.

If it was quicker,
we'd spend less time on it.

They have you there.
Let me see if I can speed things up.

Well?

Some banks are just stupid.

So are private equity firms.

Well, they don't like perceived risk.

But I scaled back the tasting room,

revised the budget, added more comps.

- Those are all good choices.
- And look at this suit.

How can anyone say no
to a power suit like this?

Is that my suit? That is my lucky suit.

Clearly, it's not my lucky suit.

- [CLEARS THROAT] Hey.
- Hi.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Hey.

[PITCH PIPE BLOWS]

♪ Happy ordinary day to you ♪

♪ Happy ordinary day to you ♪

♪ Happy ordinary day, Bree and Luke ♪

♪ Happy ordinary day to you ♪

[UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]

I appreciate that.

Very, very nice.

I am missing something,
but I'm sure it's very funny.

[ALL LAUGH]

What is that?

I don't know. It's the strangest thing.

Yeah. It just appeared. Hm.

Seriously, it's very odd.

Wouldn't you know, this was with it.

Why are you giving it to me?

- I know you like to hit things.
- Mostly Kevin.

- Yes, I do like to hit things.
- You do.

- Stand back.
- Oh!

[MICK] Okay. Back I go.

[JESS] People!

We have an announcement.

We're having a boy!

- [GASPS]
- Yay!

- [MICK] My first grandson!
- [MEGAN] Oh, honey.

- Wonderful.
- That's great!

- Is this you keeping a secret?
- Yeah, it's the best I can do.

- Good job.
- [CARRIE] It's here.

- [CAITLYN] It's here.
- Oh!

I'm so curious. Excuse me.

Your ancestry will now be revealed!

Oh, how exciting.

I just know you're related to
Brian Boru, high king of Ireland.

First, I will reveal
my maternal ancestral line.

My maternal breakdown
is as follows: . % Greek...

There must be an olive branch
on your side of the family tree.

I'm also % Welsh and . % Irish!

There we go!

No surprises there
for the Maloney O'Briens.

How about this?

I have Neanderthal DNA variants,

which is more than %
of all X-Y-Me customers.

- Huh.
- Now, that would be you.

Let me see.

You know what?
I think I'm gonna X-Y-Me too.

- What made you change your mind?
- Uh...

Family. It's nice.

You know, I think I'd like
to go sit in our "pergebo."

- Hm.
- Would you get my jacket?

It's up in your room.

Sure.

[DRAMATIC TENDER MUSIC PLAYING]

Thank you.

You're moving in with me.

Took you long enough to figure that out.

Although, to be honest, I do still have

some concerns about us living together.

- Like what?
- Like my ex-husband.

He never screwed the cap
back on the toothpaste.

- What a Neanderthal.
- Mm-hm.

[DRAMATIC TENDER MUSIC CONTINUES]

[NARRATOR] Next on Chesapeake Shores:

There's something
that I want to discuss with you.

Uh-oh, sounds serious.

- We did it.
- [MARGARET] Yeah, we did.

The B&B is barely squeaking by.
What if we go out of business?

An Oscar-winning actress
is coming to see you?

She's gonna make a movie out of my book.

Nobody wants to take my father's case.

Evan's been on his own for a long time.

When people get close, it can scare him.
