05x07 - What's New?

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on Chesapeake Shores...

I'm ready.

[WHIMPERS AND GROANS]

We've recovered the bow of a ship.

You need to stop work
while we excavate it.

I went to see Dr. Baum.

He said I might have
trouble getting pregnant.

- We'll be okay.
- [BREE] My sister's getting married.

And I have a plus-one,
in case you want to come check.

[SMOOCH]

[BREE] It is my honor
to declare you married.

You may now kiss the groom!

[GUESTS CHEER]

That ship is really an
amazing discovery.

- It's just too bad.
- Are you pulling out of the build?

So that's your final decision?

I'm afraid it is.

- Morning.
- Morning.

How'd you sleep?

Mm.

Like a baby.

No bad dreams?

Nope.

How'd you sleep?

Oh... fine.

Just fine?

Well, you did kick a little.

- What?
- Yeah. In your sleep. You kicked me.

- And, uh...
- "And?"

You stole all the blankets.

- [GASPS]
- You took over the whole bed.

I did? Ohh!

But hey, that's the first
time that's ever happened.

And if it happens again,
I-I can learn to live with it.

You're worth a few kicks.

Abby complained about
that when I was a kid,

but I thought she was making it up.

She said she'd have to hang
on to the side of the mattress

for dear life.

Maybe we should compare notes.

It's true!

I'm a bed hog.

- At least you don't snore?
- Wait till I have a cold.

Mm!

Well... we survived the wedding, ladies,

and it was beautiful.

It was perfect! Perfect.

- Mm.
- By the way,

did Mick get to the airport all right

- this morning?
- Mm. Yes, I just got a text...

he did make his connection to Kansas.

Good. I think we really have a sh*t

at getting this Wichita project...

which we need,

since Evan Kincaid
pulled out of the hotel.

Oh, no, that's for sure surprisin',

because the young man,
Evan, he seems so nice.

Nice, but unpredictable.

- [KNOCKING]
- Speak of the devil.

- That's me. I hope I'm not intruding.
- [CHUCKLES]

- Hello again.
- Hi.

Uh, Gran, this is Evan. I think you
met yesterday at the wedding.

Ah. Welcome to the O'Brien home.

Would you like some coffee now?

Oh, that's very kind,
but I can't stay long.

Oh. Okay.

Well, while you're
having a little visit,

I think we'll take our coffee
and take a little walk.

We will go take our coffee
down to the point.

- Shall we?
- Wonderful!

- 'Kay. Nice seeing you.
- Nice seeing you as well.

- Bye.
- Bye.

[FOOTSTEPS RECEDE]

How can I help you?

I just wanted to drop off a
wedding gift for Jess and David.

Mm. How thoughtful.

Well, they made me feel so
at home at their B-and-B,

so I decided to buy 'em a unicorn.

It's right outside. Made you look!

I got 'em a gift certificate.

To what?

To anything they want.
Trip to Greece? Greece itself?

I'm kidding, but actually, Greece
is quite affordable at the moment.

Are you kidding me?

What?

Is this you?

- Mm-hmm.
- Adorable!

Thank you.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

Okay. What do you want?

I, uh... wanted to say
goodbye in person.

And I'm sorry, you know, about
our project not working out.

Me too.

Obviously, the lawyers will
iron out all the final details.

So you're really not
going through with it?

There's no turning back?

Wow, look at that view today.

You know, this doesn't just affect us.

This meant a lot of
jobs to a lot of people.

I know. It wasn't an easy decision.

Oh, boy. Is that Mick as a kid?

He looks exactly the same!

Oh... [CRIES OUT] Oh!
Ow, my back. My back!

- Are you okay?
- No, don't touch. Bad spasm.

It should... It should pass.

It usually passes. Oh, unless...

Unless... ?

Unless it doesn't.

- [GROANS]
- Okay, okay, give me this.

- Who can I call?
- Mandrake. He knows what to do.

Mandrake, Mandrake, Mandrake...

- Oh, you know a lot of famous people.
- They can't help me now.

I didn't want you to see me like this.

- Like what?
- In pain.

- Human?
- Oof! Whatever.

Okay. Here.

[LINE RINGING]

[PAINED] Mandrake?

You're needed.

[SIGHS]

- _
- [♪♪♪]

The chief is here.

Probably to announce the new captain.

Who do you think it'll be?

[EXHALES]

My money's on Chris Sutton from Nine,

with Mike as the new lieutenant.

Sarah.

I've been looking for you.

O'Brien, would you
excuse us for a second?

Sure. I need to cross-check
some inventory.

Well, Sarah, it's official...

Mike Herrmann's gonna
be the new captain.

That's great. He's a good man.

And you're gonna be the new lieutenant.

That is, if you want it.

[♪♪♪]

[STUNNED CHUCKLE]

- [MANDRAKE] Does that hurt, sir?
- Oh! Ow! Yes.

- And how about now?
- Ooh! Yes! Are you enjoying this?

I always enjoy my work, sir.
I'm going to have to turn you over now.

- Will it hurt?
- A great deal, sir.

But just remember...

that which does not k*ll us
only makes us stronger.

What if I don't want to be stronger?

Would one of you lend a hand?

Uh, what can I do?

Just grab both legs

- and turn when I turn.
- Okay.

Sweet jar of peaches and cream!
Oh! I would say more,

but your grandmother's listening.

Oh, I've heard it all.

[EXHALES TENSELY]

It appears that your
back is spasming, sir.

Oh, tell me something I don't know.

So this has happened before?

Mm. Not for a couple of years.

- Oh! I thought I was over it.
- It's a chronic condition, ma'am.

It should right itself soon.

Call a private ambulance.

Get them to move me to my house.

[GRAN] Don't be ridiculous!
All that lifting and that jostling,

that wouldn't help it a bit.
You're gonna stay on this sofa

- until you can stand up alone.
- Gran.

- I don't want to impose.
- He really doesn't.

Oh, don't be silly.
Why, the man is hurt.

And we are going to help you get better.

We're going to take care
of you and see to it.

So... have a muffin.

Nah, I couldn't... um...

Mm. That's a delicious muffin.

And there's more where that came from.

[EVAN] I guess I could
stay a little while.

Mandrake, get me my computer
and my work phone.

I have to do the Lisbon call from here.

- Yes, sir.
- Okay.

Mandrake? Mandrake.

Uh, tell me, how long do
these spasms usually last for?

It's hard to say, ma'am.

The last time, we were in Brazzaville,

and it only lasted a couple of hours.

But, in Zagreb...

That bad?

Let's just say we're not
welcome in Croatia anymore.

[INHALES]

[WHIMPERS]

You okay?

I'm okay.

Just you seem kind of quiet.

Chief Lee offered me
the lieutenancy today.

What?

- Why wouldn't you tell me?
- [LAUGHS]

Guess I was too shocked.

Said I'd think about it.

Give him an answer next week.

That's great! I mean, that's wonderful.

Is it?

Do I really want to move up that fast?

Do I want to be a supervisor?
I hate supervisors.

You hate supervisors that aren't you.

And it's more money,
which... we could use.

Yeah, it is more money.

It's also the first step of you
becoming chief yourself,

which is what you've always wanted.

Get to tell everyone what to do.

- I do like telling people what to do.
- 'Kay, so, what's wrong?

I'm just... not ready to
stop going on runs yet.

I'll miss it.

I'll miss the... the rush, you know?

Yeah, I know.

And once I'm pregnant,

I'll have to give that all up anyways.

Will you?

Won't I?

Dr. Armstrong said I had to be careful.

Are you saying that you're not sure

you want to take the lieutenancy
position, or are you saying that...

you might want to wait
to try to have kids?

[SIGHS] I don't know what I'm saying.

[CAITLYN] I don't see
why we can't get a dog.

I never said we couldn't get a dog.

So we can get a dog?

Well, I...

[GRAN] Did you see what they did there?

I did, and I'm impressed.

[LAUGHTER]

We can talk about it.

[GIRLS] Yay!

Could I have some more chicken, please?

Oh! Evan, coming right up.

I'll take it to him.

How're you feeling?

Okay, as long as I don't move.

Have you seen the pictures
of the excavation?

The ship looks amazing. See?

Yeah, the Smithsonian's
very excited about it.

It's almost worth it that
we were building there,

- so they could find it.
- "Almost."

Ahem.

I guess this is pretty awkward, huh?

I come by, pull out of the deal,
and then I'm stuck here.

It... is awkward.

So, how did you hurt your back?

Originally? Uh, I was
in a little accident.

Oh. Was it serious?

I walked away from it.

Good chicken.

- Tell Gran.
- Good chicken, Mrs. O'Brien!

Oh, Evan. Well, for sure, now...

it's nice of you to say so.

And for dessert,
we have blueberry crumble.

Ohh... thank you. That is very
sweet, but I should get going.

Oh! Ah! Or not!

You stay right there.
I'm gonna get some blankets

and I'm gonna make up
the sofa for you. Okay?

[EVAN SIGHS]

- Awkward.
- Awkward.

Hey, thanks for helping me out, Kev.

What, are you kidding?

Helping out my little brother,
swinging a sledgehammer...

- it's a win-win.
- Hey!

You guys need any help?
I brought extra hands.

These hands.

- The more the merrier. Thanks, Luke.
- Hey, no problem.

Oh, nice space.

- Thanks. So what do you think?
- Yeah.

Can you see it as a law office?

Yeah. Why not?

So, um, how do we get started?

- Come on and bring that nail-puller.
- Okay.

Spoken like a true lawyer.

Uh, so, what can I do?

Why don't you grab a pair
of goggles and stand back?

Got it.

- [BANG]
- Whoa!

- [GRUNTS]
- Kevin?

You working through some stuff there?

What? No.

- Maybe.
- Do you want to talk about it?

'Cause, if you do, I have some
stuff I could talk about.

Yeah, no. I think I'd rather
just break some stuff.

Go for it.

Ah! Hey. Whoo...

[PLASTER CRACKING]

So, your very own law practice, huh?

Looks like it.

Let me guess... you hate lawyers?

Why do you say that?

'Cause everybody hates lawyers.

Except for... other lawyers, huh?

Oh, no, no. We hate them, too.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Hey, uh, can I ask you something?
For a friend of a friend?

Sure. But this friend of a
friend would be you, right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Look, your dad and Kevin
have been just great to me...

getting a job at the Bridge...

and, but... they already know this...

I've served time.

Wow!

Yeah.

Okay. So Dad and Kev know.

- Have you told Bree?
- I'm gonna tell her this weekend.

I'm just, you know,
waiting for the right time.

People don't always react
so well to the, um, news.

Well, she'll be all right
with it, but tell her, okay?

Yeah. I will.

Okay then.

You're a good brother, you know.

She's a good sister.

Now what was it you wanted to ask me?

- Oh, never mind. I...
- No, no, no. No, no.

You're helping me out here,
so you get free legal advice.

Okay.

My parole officer, he's just really
coming down on me hard.

I'm toeing the line

and I'm trying to do every little
thing that's required of me,

but no matter what I do,

he's just... it seems like
he has it out for me.

- Mm.
- Is there anything I can do

to get switched, maybe, to another PO?

I'm not sure, but I'd be happy
to look into it for you.

Thanks, man. I really appreciate it.

- Yeah.
- Cool.

Not half-bad.

Thanks!

Keep going.

She's got an eye...

for composition, for color.

Ah.

Is that right?

You're either born with it or not.

And you were born with it?

My curse.

Ohh!

Why don't you paint anymore?

I've painted it all. I'm sick of it.

It's new to her.

Mm.

So, is that why you came over here?

Why else?

Certainly not to hear
your daughter-in-law

try to sell me on that show of my work.

Well, now, I thought maybe...
it was for the muffins?

[CHUCKLES]

- You do make good muffins.
- Uh-huh. Enjoy.

[♪♪♪]

[EVAN] Hey, Richard. It's Evan.

Carrie's art is really good, huh?

Yeah. Yeah.

Gran says that she has a gift.

Do you think I have one?

A gift?

- Of course you do.
- I don't know.

Honey, you just haven't found it yet.

You need to explore.

None of us found ours overnight.

What did you all find?

Different things.

Carrie's is art.

Auntie Bree's is writing.

Mine is numbers.

You'll find yours. Trust me.

[♪♪♪]

What's his gift?

His?

Uh...

his gift is... that he
never stops thinking.

[♪♪♪]

[SLEDGEHAMMER REPEATEDLY
CRASHES THROUGH WALL]

Are you sure there is
nothing on your mind?

Yeah, okay, there might be something.

Okay. Go.

Sarah got offered a promotion.

To Lieutenant.

That sounds like great news.

You would think so, right?

But she's not sure that
she wants to take it.

- [BAM]
- Okay! Okay! Why not? Why not?

She says that she is not ready
to give up going on runs,

which I understand...

... but she's thinking
she might want to put off

trying to have a baby for a while.

Oh.

And it's fine, because...

we have time, you know?

It's just we've always
been on the same page,

and now I'm starting to worry
that maybe we're not.

Hmm.

I'm not an expert on marriage,

but isn't the deal that
you have to figure out

how to be on different pages

but still remain in the same book?

You're right.

- Very smart.
- Well...

You should be a writer, you know that?

- Mm. I try.
- [CHUCKLES]

Just talk to her.

[SIGHS] Yeah. I will.

Thank you.

What'd you want to talk about?

[DEEP BREATH, SIGHS]

Um...

Last weekend.

Oh, you mean juggling two guys

- and a wedding?
- Okay...

- No, that's very impressive.
- Thank you.

- I cannot be that person.
- [CHUCKLES]

So pick one.

Yeah.

[SIGHS]

I have to let Jerry Trask down easy.

So, if you were him,

how would you like me to let you down?

Get right to it. Just pull
it off like a Band-aid.

- It's the only way.
- That's what I thought you'd say.

I don't want to be the bad guy.

Trust me. It's better this way.

Let him get on with his life.

Let him know where he stands.

Yeah. You're right.

That's what I should do.

[DEEP BREATH]

[EVAN] It's good, Klaus,

but FYP tactic is too mysterious.

Make it so that, if it appears,

you're more likely to
get similar content.

Right, so it'll gain more
momentum in real time. Yeah.

Okay.

- Mr. Kincaid?
- Call me Evan.

Are you really thinking all the time?

Uh... [LAUGHS] I am.

'Cause when I watch those videos,

Mom says I'm wasting my time.

Well, that's just her opinion.

I think it's a way to relax.

But in my case, this is work.

It is?

Mm-hmm. I own this site.

- You do?
- Mm-hmm. Bought it last year.

- That's so cool.
- I think so.

- Do you like computers?
- I like video games.

Have you ever thought about making one?

- You can do that?
- Sure. Here.

Ow. Let me show you.

[♪♪♪]

Well... if it isn't Bree O'Brien,
the famous author.

Hi, Jerry.

Oh.

That's not good.

Um, Jerry, I know that I
invited you to the wedding...

And I had a wonderful time.

I did, too. I just, um...

I just need to make sure that
we're on the same page.

Um...

I don't think we are, but go on.

[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY] I don't...

Um... I don't think that
I'm feeling for you

- what you're feeling for me.
- Ah.

And, you know, we're
working together, I just...

I think it's best to just
rip off the Band-aid now

so that it doesn't get weird.

I totally understand.

You don't have to say another word.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Timing's everything,

and, um, this isn't the right time.

So... back to being on
a professional basis.

Agreed?

Absolutely.

Thank you.

Oh, you don't have to
thank me for anything.

- 'Kay.
- Um...

Okay. Well, good luck with your class.

- Yeah, thank you so much.
- Yeah.

- Okay. Bye.
- See you.

[♪♪♪]

[SIGHS]

So how's it going with you and Jay?

Uh...

it's fine, I like him.

But?

But nothing. He's nice. And thoughtful.

But you're not ready to take the plunge?

[LAUGHS] What... What
do you mean? The plunge.

You know what plunge!

"The plunge."

Are you dating? Are you...
Are you boyfriend and girlfriend?

Oh, my goodness, can we
talk about something else?

What does Jay think about Evan
spending the night at your place?

Evan did not "spend the night."

He's laid up with a bad back.

In your house.

Yes, and I did not tell Jay
because he has an idea

that Evan has a thing for me.

Like, likes me.

I don't think that's weird.

Trust me, Evan Kincaid does not like me.

Do you like Evan Kincaid?

All right, I'm changing the subject.

- How's married life?
- Oh! It's perfect.

So then why are you sitting
here with your big sister

instead of hanging off
of your husband's arm?

Yeah, okay, so I have to talk
to you about something.

- Mm-hmm.
- Not that it's a problem.

You know, in movies, how it
always ends with the wedding?

- Mm-hmm.
- It goes "wedding, happy ending"...

- it's over.
- Mm-hmm?

Well, what happens after that?

What happens if you find
out you're a bed hog?

- What are you talking about?
- David said I kicked him in my sleep.

- You still do that?
- [GASPS] I did that?

[LAUGHS] Well, when we were little

and we would go on family trips,

we would have to share a hotel room.

Can you imagine spending
the night with a kangaroo?

I can.

[CHUCKLES] But it's okay, I mean,
it was right after Mom left,

and you were having some anxiety.

Maybe. But what do I have
to be anxious about now?

You know, I'm really not
a licensed therapist.

You're better than a licensed therapist,

you're my big sister.

- [CHUCKLES]
- Oh.

Think there's something going on there?

He's not her usual type.

No, he is not.

Hmm.

[♪♪♪]

Yes, Evan, I'll get right on that.

This is amazing. Abby!
Come look at this.

This is what they think
that ship looked like.

Oh.

From what we've uncovered so far.

Could you imagine sailing all the
way across the ocean in that?

- It would be pretty crowded.
- [EVAN] Tell me about it.

Oh, here are the settlement papers

I had drawn up to end our agreement.

It's pretty fair.

It's more than fair.

Mandrake, could you read 'em to her?

- N... I can read them myself.
- Really?

I always miss things when
I read them with my eyes.

- I have to read them with my ears.
- Okay.

Uh, Caitlyn,

do you want to go play
that up in your room?

Oh, she's not playing.
She's designing a video game.

- Mm-hmm!
- Hey, can I see?

So far, I've gotten the boulder
to roll down the hill

- and crush the troll.
- Good, I hate trolls.

This is not half-bad, Caitlyn!

Keep going.

But you're leaving.

How can I show it to you when I finish?

I will give you my
private email address.

Just don't share it with your mother.

[LAUGHS] Okay.

Wow.

You're full of surprises.

I'm good with kids.

Mandrake says it's because
I'm young at heart.

I said you were a regressed
adolescent, sir.

Same difference.

Ooh. It is almost : .

Excuse me, I have to get
on a call with the Coast.

Uh, Mandrake?

Actually, I don't even know.

Is Mandrake your first
or your last name?

Neither, ma'am.

- Your name's not Mandrake?
- No.

It amuses him to call me that.

Wow, it must be exhausting to be him.

- You have no idea, ma'am.
- [LAUGHS]

Please don't call me "ma'am".
Call me Abby.

- All right. Abby.
- Uh...

Listen, does he really not read?

- Is he that lazy?
- Not lazy, Abby.

Anything but lazy.

Don't tell me he can't read.

Well, it's not that he can't,
and he's not ashamed of it.

Evan suffered from dyslexia
when he was a child.

It went undiagnosed.

He was considered to be
lazy and unmotivated.

One of the reasons why
he didn't go to university.

He has since overcome that hardship,

but reading is not one of
his favorite activities.

Wow. I had no idea. Um...

he really is a self-made man, isn't he?

Entirely. No one believed in him,

so Evan had to believe in himself.

You've been with him a long time?

Long enough.

Tell me, how he hurt his back?
He said he had some sort of accident?

He's never shared that with me,

but perhaps one day he will tell you.

[♪♪♪]

And then the dragon saves the princess

- from the evil prince.
- Ah! You are learning.

Hello.

I come bearing the PTA
Silent Auction info,

which you so foolishly
agreed to help out on.


That is not fair. You caught
me at a weak moment

and you plied me with
hot chocolate at Sally's.

Well, I am fiendish that way.

- Mm-hmm.
- Hello, Caitlyn.

Hi, Mr. Ross. What's your gift?

Uh... [CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]

She's working through some stuff.

I am.

Well, aren't we all?

Huh. You know, I never
really thought about it.

My gift?

Teaching, I guess.

And music.

I play guitar a little.

- Hmm.
- How do I not know that?

Well, you never asked.

- I have a guitar.
- Do you play?

I had a couple of lessons,

but I never really kept up with it.

Oh, well, I would be more than happy

- to teach you.
- Could I, Mom?

- Sure.
- All right.

Well, I look forward to it.
Uh, text me some days.

- I will do that.
- 'Kay.

Mom, do you like Jay?

[LAUGHS] Of course I like Jay.

But do you "like" like him?

Is this what you and your
friends talk about at school?

Yeah, but they give me answers.

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

Ah, ladies.

- I need your opinion.
- Mm-hmm.

For sure. Now, be honest. Which scarf?

The white with the
red or the multicolor?

The white and red.

- Oh, okay.
- Why?

Huh? Just wondering.

- Okay. You look nice.
- Oh, thank ya!

- Does Gran... ?
- Have a date?

[BOTH GIGGLING]

She was a wonderful woman, Elaine.

My muse.

I'm not sure if she inspired me

or if I just painted to impress her.

It's all changed, hasn't it?

Oh, well... not so much.

- I don't even know what I'm eating.
- [LAUGHS]

It's called a shawarma.

I can't even spell that.

Do you like it?

- Well, it's tasty!
- You better learn to spell it.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Maybe.

What happened to that Chinese
restaurant that was over there?

Oh, that was the Garden View.

Best spring rolls in town.
Diane Yang ran it.

Well, what ever happened to her?

Oh, well, she passed away,

- many years ago.
- Typical.

That's the way of this world.

We live and we die...

and ya better make the most of it.

Your husband, Charles,
built that fountain, didn't he?

Indeed, he did.

Actually, he built it twice.

The first time, he didn't like it,

so he tore it all down one night

and started over.

Nobody else had a problem
with it but him.

But he was like that.

Hmm...

[♪♪♪]

- Cold, honey?
- No.

- Then what's with the socks?
- The socks?

They are to remind me of my feet...

so that I won't kick you all night.

Jess.

I promise I will never
hog the bed again.

Look, I'm so sorry I said anything.

I didn't mean to offend you.

- I actually thought it was kind of funny.
- Funny?

- Mm-hmm.
- Abby said I'm a kangaroo.

[STAMMERS] Well, yes, but
you are a beautiful kangaroo.

- And you're my kangaroo.
- Okay, it's not funny.

- What if our marriage is doomed?
- Our marriage is not doomed.

- I'll learn to dodge your feet.
- I'm serious!

Maybe I'm kicking you at
night because I'm anxious.

What do I have to be anxious about?

Well, I don't know.

I mean, let's... let's think about it.

Um...

we're running a business

that has a very high failure rate.

You just completely
changed your entire life.

You just made a commitment to
tie yourself to another person

"till death do you part."

You're thinking that you
might not even want kids,

and you're not sure how I feel about it,

and you just found out the
furnace needs to be replaced.

It does?

Oh, yeah. The furnace
needs to be replaced.

[GROANS] Oh, great.

But I'm anxious, too.
I'm anxious about everything.

But... let's just...
be anxious together.

That's what a marriage is.

Couples going through life terrified?

Yeah, sometimes.

What do you really feel
about the kid thing?

You think that's what this is about?

Either that, or I have
Restless Leg Syndrome.

I don't even know what that is.

Well... either way,

I love you.

And I love your legs...

and I want to help you live
the life that you want to live.

[DAVID PROTESTS PLAYFULLY]

[♪♪♪]

So have you decided?

About the lieutenancy?

Yes.

Decided about five times this morning.

The problem is, is that I keep
deciding different things.

To take it, to not
take it, to take it...

It's okay. You have plenty of time.

When does the chief
want an answer again?

The pancake breakfast.

So, tomorrow? All right. Well...

whatever you decide to
tell him, it's your career.

Has to be your choice.

Sarah!

Hey. Uh, Chief Lee
wants a word with you.

I'll be right up.

Oh, boy. What if he wants an answer now?

Well, then you'll have to decide.

And whatever you decide... I'm with you.

[LAUGHS] Way to go!

- Thanks. But my fingers hurt.
- Oh, yeah?

Well, maybe we should get a drink.

- You thirsty?
- Sure.

All right, let's do it, let's
go raid the fridge, okay?

What do you got in there? Anything good?

Wow, you guys sounded
wonderful out there.

Jay's a good teacher.

I am.

[CAITLYN] Do we have any lemonade?

Oh! Yeah, coming up.

- Do you want a brownie?
- Brownies and milk?

I just found out I'm lactose intolerant.

- I can't have milk.
- Oh.

[JAY] Can I?

Uh, one milk coming up.

[EVAN CALLING OUT]
Could I have some lemonade?

I love lemonade.

Jay...

This is Evan Kincaid.

[JAY] Is it?

Mm-hmm. Evan threw his back out.

This is Jay Ross.

[EVAN] The music teacher!

I heard you playing out there...

you're fantastic.

[JAY CHUCKLES]

I'm sorry, I would get up,
but I'm incapacitated.

Abby has been nice enough to
let me crash here a while.

- That is nice.
- Mm.

Not that I had much of a choice.

- Here's your lemonade.
- Thanks, Caitlyn!

[EVAN SLURPING] Mm!

Oh, I love these straws.

I remember these from when I was
a kid. Jay, do you remember these?

Yeah. Yeah, I remember them.

Hey, I've been thinking about
learning to play guitar.

- Could you give me lessons?
- It's not really what I do.

Oh, what do you do, Jay?

Well, I'm a grade-school teacher.

No! That's fascinating.

- Yeah.
- Okay. Uh...

let's let Evan get some rest.

- Nice meeting you, Jay!
- Yeah. You too.

Interesting guy.

Yeah, you could say that.

He's in pain, but he
likes the attention.

Doesn't he get enough of
that? He's a billionaire.

[LAUGHS]

Yeah. But...

you know, there's more to him
than what you see on the surface.

Like, apparently, he's
never had a real family.

Oh, the poor guy.

Wow. Am I actually feeling sorry
for a world-famous tycoon?

No. No, I'm not. Not at all. No.

Hey, why don't you play something?
I've never really heard you play.

Sure. Yeah.

[♪♪♪]

[GUITAR CONTINUES, FAINT]

[♪♪♪]

- [CHUCKLES]
- Wow, Jay. That was... wonderful.

I had no idea.

Well, there are things about me
you don't see on the surface.

[♪♪♪]

O'Brien!

Can you come help me fix this banner?

Yeah, sure, sounds like
just the job for an EMT.

Just give me a sec.

Hey, O'Brien! We got
a call! Priority Two.

Possible Protocol on Market Street.

Uh, right. Sorry.
You gotta find someone else.

Duty calls.

You need a hand with that?

Sure. Can you spot me while
I climb up and fix this banner?

You spot me. I'll climb. I'm used to it.

[CHUCKLES] Whatever you say, Lieutenant.

[SIGHS] You heard about that, huh?

It's hard to keep a
secret at the station.

So?

Is it true?

It is under discussion.

[DEPARTING SIREN WAILS]

- Here, come on down. I'll move the ladder.
- No, I got it.

[♪♪♪]

Hey, you okay?

[GROANS, WOOZY]

Sarah!

I don't understand why you...

Oh. Mm-hmm.

Yes.

I will see you this weekend.

Bad news?

That was Erin Kinley.

She runs a gallery in Soho.

She said that Driscoll made a deal
with her back in the mid ' s,

just after his wife passed away.

What kind of deal?

She said that he gave
her the exclusive rights

to any and all of his
artwork in perpetuity.

So she owns all the
rights to his paintings?

That's what she says.

And she refuses to let me show them.

That's ridiculous. Even if
she owns all the rights,

wouldn't they be worth
more if he had a big show?

Yeah, maybe.

But she said she prefers to wait
until they are higher in value.

- What's that mean?
- The value of an artist's work

always goes up exponentially
right after he dies.

She said she shouldn't
have to wait too long.

Wow, that's cold.

On the bright side,
she did tell me thank you

for talking Driscoll into having a show.

She said she would consider giving me

a small commission on the sales.

Wow. What'd you say to that?

I told her I appreciated that

and then I told her exactly where
she could go put her commission.

[CHUCKLES]

Anyway, she's gonna
be here this weekend.

She wants to go take a
look at "her paintings."

So what are you gonna do?

She thinks she can scare me

by pulling that "New
York art world" card.

She doesn't know that I have a
few of those cards of my own.

[THUMPS COUNTER]

[GRUNTS]

[CHUCKLES]

[ALARMED] Evan?

Evan?

It's a miracle. I'm healed.

I think it was Nell's blueberry
crumble that did it.

I'm sending a sample to the
Mayo Clinic to have it analyzed.

Well, I'm glad you are feeling better.

I can't thank you enough for
your enforced hospitality.

These were truly some of
the best days of my life.

I'm gonna buy a sofa just like that

and take it with me everywhere I go.

Well, my sofa is flattered.

Now, do you have that agreement,

about dissolving our partnership?

I do. It's right over here.

Good. Did you sign it?

I did, and I must say,
it is very generous.

I thought so.

Dramatic, huh?

- What did you do that for?
- I had time to think.

I must remember to lie on
the sofa for days more often.

Really clears the head.

You see that?

That's not an obstacle.

It's an opportunity.

So what if we have to delay
the build for awhile?

Think of the advantages.
Look, I've planned it all out.

Okay. So...

we move the hotel to the next lot over.

I bought that this morning.

And, on the old lot,

we build a museum that houses the ship

and all the other artifacts
they've found,

turn it into an event.

It's a win-win.

That's a great idea.

Isn't it? And I got it from
watching your family.

You guys have so much stuff going on!

The wedding, your business troubles,

Megan with her art thing,

Caitlyn with her life crisis,
Jay with his guitar playing...

he's in love with you,
you know that. Right?

- [STUNNED CHUCKLE]
- Nell with her date...

which went very well, by the way.

Wait. How do you know all this?

From lying on the sofa.

What, did you think I was just
napping and playing video games?

- It kind of looked like that.
- I observe. I take things in.

And I thought, "if the
O'Briens can do all that,

"I can surely build a hotel
that's also home for a ship."

- Wow. Well, I'm glad we could help.
- [FOOTSTEPS]

The car is packed and
the plane is ready, sir.

Well, cancel the plane,

drive to the house, and unpack.

We're staying in Chesapeake Shores.

Be seeing you.

[♪♪♪]

Uh...

Thank you, Abby.

Where's Evan?

Uh... he's gone.

- Sort of. It's a long story.
- I have time.

- [PHONE RINGING]
- Oh. Hold on.

Hey, Kevin, what's up?

We'll be right there. Sarah.
There's been an accident.

[♪♪♪]

Oh! Kevin.

How is she?

They don't know anything yet.

She's gonna be all right, Kevin.

- Mr. O'Brien?
- Yeah!

Your wife is fine. She's asking for you.

- [EXHALES]
- [MEGAN] Thank you.

- Hey. What a relief.
- Yeah.

[PA ANNOUNCEMENT]
Dr. Findley, maternity ward.

- Dr. Findley, maternity ward.
- Hey.

Hey.

I'm so embarrassed.

Embarrassed?

The doctor should be here any minute.

I love you.

I love you, too, but I can't believe it.

I mean, I risk my life
in fires every day,

and I fall off a stupid ladder
fixing a stupid banner?

- It could happen to anyone.
- Yeah, but it happened to me.

It was supposed to be me.
Ramirez asked me first.

[SARAH SIGHS] You know what?

You wouldn't have gotten
dizzy and lost your footing.

I don't know what happened.

Whoa, whoa. Hey, hey, hey.
What are you doing?

Going home.

- Wait, no, you...
- I hate hospitals.

Sarah, you can't just leave.

They have to tell you that you can go.

I can check myself out.

Sarah, they have to make sure

- that you're okay.
- Look, I know that I'm okay.

See? I'm okay.

Oh, hey, hey, hey!

I'm here. I'm here. Come here.

Come sit. Come on. Get back in.

It's okay.

I hate hospitals.

So do I. Awful places.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't
work here. [CHUCKLES]

And you, Sarah O'Brien, are free to go.

You're in sound health.

A few contusions, but no broken bones.

Of course, you have to take
it easy for the next few days,

but I don't need to tell you that.

I'm feeling a little woozy still.

Well, looking at your blood work,

that's understandable.

But rest assured, there
are no complications.

How far along are you?

Judging from your blank expressions,

I guess I'm the first to tell you.

Congratulations.

You're pregnant.
