You have kept me living so high, so perfect, oh so

high.

You have kept me living so high, so perfect, oh

so perfect. Tell the dream, how big was this dream?

All right, Chloe Turner, what's keeping you and me here on a Saturday? Dr.

Andrea, the right whale samples came in with the counts, and I couldn't wait

until Monday to see.

Contaminants are down 40 % from last year's specimens.

That's good news.

And there's a healthy -looking amount of blubber here, too.

What are our counts this year?

We're up an additional six whales.

Six? Wow.

Which means our food conservation efforts are working. In the marine

area that you established.

It would be so cool to see it in person.

Conduct the count, collect the samples.

Maybe next year.

Maybe next week.

There's an exciting opportunity on the other side of the country. We have a

research grant that allows one of our PhD students to study the orca whale

migration in the Pacific Northwest.

This is actually really impressive.

It is. You're my first choice for the program.

Me? Oh, I don't know anything about them.

But you're wildly curious, Chloe. It would give me insight into a whole new

species of whales.

And the more we know about the orcas... The better we can protect them.

Exactly.

And I think this trip could give you the field experience you need to nail down

your thesis and maybe even present you with a discovery that would inspire you

to apply for the National Doctoral Scholarship.

That's the most competitive award in the country. I'm more likely to get drafted

by NASA than get that scholarship.

You will never know if you don't apply.

The research study trip is Monday to Sunday.

It's Monday?

I'm supposed to be moving in with my boyfriend Marcus this weekend.

Oh. I didn't know you had a boyfriend. He spends so much time in the lab.

Yeah, that's the thing. We're both Ph .D. students, and we hardly ever see

other. Honestly, I thought we were growing apart.

But, um... He said he wanted to talk to me, and he seemed really excited.

And then I saw a receipt in his car for a key cutter next to this little

envelope with my name on it.

That's very exciting, Chloe.

Well, if you change your mind, let me know soon. Thank you, Professor.

And keep up the good work.

Hey, you. Marcus!

How are the fish today?

It's mammals.

Oh, right. Sorry.

How are the big fish today? We got impressive lab results, and this year's

is showing big numbers. Hey, love big numbers. Bigger, the better.

In fact, I got the biggest numbers in our mock wall street session today.

That's great. Congratulations. Why, thank you. Yeah, it looks like we're

exceeding expectations.

Me in economics, and you in marine mammar...

Menominal? No, mammology.

Ah, right.

Okay, time for family split Saturdays. My favorite day.

Now, I actually wanted to talk to you about Saturdays.

They're great, but we're both so busy that outside of that we don't get to see

each other nearly enough.

So, I was thinking, maybe it's time we start sharing

some space.

What is this?

Open it. You really have no idea what it could be.

Keith!

To our new place?

I can't wait to show you.

Welcome home.

This is an office.

Yeah, our office.

It's right between my lecture hall and your research lab.

And honestly say I wasn't expecting this.

Hey, look.

I know that this is a big commitment, okay?

But I don't know. I feel like we're ready to take that next step.

I don't think we're on the same page.

Exactly. Exactly. Which is why we can finally find ourselves in the same

same time, in between classes.

I don't know. I think maybe I need some time to... Some time. Well, how about we

reschedule for... for Monday?

I'm... Going to be in the Pacific Coast for a research trip on Monday.

Oh, you are?

Yeah. Yeah, the opportunity just came up. It's only a week, and then I'll be

back for... For the big move -in.

Sure, yes. We'll talk then. All right, see you later.

I'm glad you love it.

Hi,

Dr. Andrea.

Oh, hi, Chloe. Is the research trip still available?

It is, and it's all yours if you want it. Yes, more than anything.

Perfect.

We are going to school.

You all right?

Yes.

Should be illegal to rent these things to tourists around here.

Excuse me, I'm not a tourist. I am a scientist.

And I asked for a smart car.

Not so smart after all.

Oh. It's funny.

I'm headed to Mary's B &B in Cable Cove.

You have any idea how far away that is?

I do.

If you call a tow truck, it'll be a couple hours.

But I can get there in five minutes if you want.

Yeah, if you insist.

I insist.

Your hand? Oh, thank you.

Wow. Oh, yeah. Good? Yep.

I'm Chloe.

Sorry, let's try that again.

I'm Ben Winter, and you are?

I'm Chloe Turner.

Chloe.

Sign time.

Technically, Chloe the PhD student.

Oh.

All that.

Dr. Chloe Turner?

No, not yet.

I'm studying marine mammology at Miami Central College.

Oh, so you're here for the orcas.

I spent the whole flight reading about them. I cannot imagine what it would be

like to see one in real life.

You've never seen an orca in a while before?

No, just the 800 times I've watched Free Willy.

As a kid.

Right. You know,

something tells me you're going to love Cable Cove.

Oh, thank you for the lift.

No problem. I'll call the tow truck company, see if I can't get your refund

the rental.

You sure I can't give you a hand up there? Oh, no, no, no.

Uh... What did you say your name was again?

Uh, Ben Winters.

You let me go on about whales that whole time and didn't tell me you have an

entire business dedicated to them.

I like to hear you talk about them.

If you need anything, don't be afraid to knock.

They sure will be fine.

Right.

Scientist. Not a tourist.

You got it.

Bye. See you.

Hi. I'm Chloe Turner. Just checking in. Chloe.

Chloe. Oh, you're the student from Miami.

Welcome. I'm Mary. I'm just so tickled you've come all this way to see our

whales. Not to see them. I'm here to study them. Well, what type of research

you doing? I'm examining the orca's migratory behaviors, hopefully

any patterns that would help us continue to protect them. Well, that's what

we're all about here in Cable Cove.

I am going to give you my favorite cabin. It's right on the ocean.

I'll meet you right out there. Okay.

I have to say, I think this is the nicest bed and breakfast I have ever

I'm so glad you like it. Wait till you see the rest of this place.

Oh, my God.

You are going to love this cabin.

Mary, I already do.

Are you sure I can't take your bag? Yes, thank you. And don't worry about your

shoes. It's very homey here.

Come on in.

It's so pretty in here.

It should be all warmed up in here for you.

Perfect.

I never get tired of that view.

Yeah, I wouldn't either.

So, breakfast is served every morning at the big house from 6 to 9, and there's

a fresh pot of coffee on all day, so you can come up any time.

Oh, thank you, Mary.

Well, I'm going to get out of here and let you sell in. Okay.

Where's the camera?

Okay, let's go.

Sorry, sorry.

No! Okay.

Hey, um... Well, please.

No, no, I insist.

Okay.

You know what? That feels weird. Yeah, I'm gonna go.

Yeah.

Hey, Simon.

what you should have done ten seconds ago. That is so helpful. Thank you for

tip. Yeah, no problem.

I wouldn't worry about it. Orcas are notoriously camera shy. Where are you

going? To my boat!

Gotta catch up to the plug!

You've got a boat?

You've got a boat.

Sure do.

Here she is.

Wow. And you're going to pilot it?

Mm -hmm.

And you know what you're doing?

Yes, just checking out the old bow here.

That's a stern.

Bows up front.

I know that. I was looking at it from here.

So you've done this before?

Yeah.

Great. So you've got a full tank, life vest, flares,

bail bucket.

Yeah, sure. All those things are here somewhere.

And you've definitely checked the nautical forecast, wind speeds.

Great. Well, if you need anything...

Okay, I know where to find you.

Thanks so much.

Great.

Actually, what is the belt?

Bucket.

Lucky you were still tied up.

Oh, I did not know the ocean would be so cold.

You're not in Miami anymore, Chloe.

I know, and now I lost the whole day.

The day's not over yet. You just need a little guidance.

You know what? I'm going to give Ben Winters a call. I don't think that's a

idea. Well, Ben knows more about the orcas than anyone in Cable Cove. Yes,

sure he does, but he has offered to help me a number of times, and I've told him

that I don't need his help the same number of times.

Well, I'll take a look for some maps.

Thank you, Mary.

Hope you got something hot and strong for me, Mary.

Sure do.

You're the best.

Oh.

Hey.

Hello.

You're back already.

Yeah.

Didn't quite make it out.

I see.

Are you in a bit over your head?

so to speak oh i'm fine there you go ben meet you

why don't you have a seat right here now

wow this lovely lady could use a cable cove crash

course and you are the guy for the job happy to help

Okay, here's a bit of history.

120 years ago, they set up a telegraph cable line right here, giving Cable Cove

its name.

Now, the Pacific Ocean, which introduced itself to today... Rather rudely. ...is

all around us, and it has a tendency to be a little moody. One minute, it's blue

skies and calm tides. The next, it's white swallows and raging winds.

Now, the fun part.

Cable Cove is known for its whales, specifically the orcas.

Southern resident orcas, to be precise.

Wow. What else you got?

Well, even though they are called resident orcas, they like to travel,

as far north as Alaska or all the way down to California.

But this time of year, they always come back here.

Because it's dinner time.

The Chinook Salmon Run brings them to the Salish Sound. That's right.

To this river right here.

The Chinook then return to the Cold Stream River to spawn, and the whales

sit back and relax and wait to feast.

And that's its circle of life.

I'm impressed.

He did your homework.

It was a long flight.

How's class going?

Oh, my goodness.

Okay, class is going great.

I'm not sure who the student, who the teacher is.

That's the best kind, a symbiotic relationship.

Thank you.

These all for Saturday?

They sure are. I just need to get them steamed and cleaned by them.

What, Saturday?

Oh, it's my annual fine dining dock dinner party.

Kind of a big deal around here. I get the lobsters flown in from the Atlantic,

AAA fillets from the prairies, and champagne.

The good stuff.

Nice. Mary sells tickets and all the proceeds go to the Cable Cove

Fund. What's that?

It's an organization that helps make sure all the resident orcas keep coming

back. You know, it's our busiest time for tourists. Between the orca migration

and the dock party, I mean, everything is booked up.

Well, I'm sure you must be super busy with the whale -watching tours, then.

Yeah, yeah. The first few days are a little light, but... Um, Ben, why don't

take Chloe out on the boat and show her around while you still have a chance?

I don't think Chloe needs my help.

It might actually be nice to have a little local guidance, if you have time.

Yeah, well, showing people around Cable Cove's kind of my thing.

I'd love to help.

Hey, guys.

Oh, hey, Ben. You headed out? Sure am. Taking Dr. Chloe Turner here to study

some whales. Yeah, that's Chloe. Not a doctor.

Oh, yet. Well, you've got the best guy to guide you. I'm Adrian. This is

Hi. Hi.

I love your boat.

Thanks. What a beautiful place to live.

Yes, it is.

You have to make sure you stay moisturized. No one wants to look like a

old fisherman.

Speak for yourself.

Good haul today? Oh, yeah. These ones are real beauty. Oh, look at you.

Well. Lovely to meet you all. Yeah, likewise. We'll see you around the

Very good.

Welcome to my second home.

The marine magic.

Nice.

And definitely more magical than mine.

On this boat, you only get splashed if you want to.

Funny.

Oh,

cool.

Is that an underwater camera?

Yeah, it is.

with 4K digital imaging.

Nice. As long as we're close enough, whatever happens down there, we can stay

here. Awesome.

You just got to figure out where to install it.

Oh,

don't put that... Whoa!

All right.

You all right?

Okay.

Why don't you find your sea legs, and we'll install this later. That's a good

idea. You sure they're in here somewhere?

Mm -hmm.

In the back somewhere.

But I got a theory.

People always say we're whale -watching, but I think the whales are watching us.

When they're ready to be seen, they make sure to put on a show.

So do you believe the whales know we watch them trying to take them out?

100%. Yeah, the whales I know have big personalities.

Yeah, and from what I can tell by its tail fluke, that's B -16, or Romeo, as I

like to call him.

Romeo? Yeah.

This is Bravo Pod, and he's the big reason why they're the biggest pod with

whales.

There are 33 whales around us right now.

Mm -hmm.

Wow.

We have Delta Pod up here at Bowen Bay, and it's a bit of a park. Over.

Copy that.

All right, Doc, let's see if we can get you close.

Do you

know

what

I mean about putting on a show?

I've never been this close to a whale before.

Ben, can I see the iPad? I want to look underwater.

Thank you.

It's like a dream come true.

The 101 on how to tie up a boat. Pull tight.

Wrap it around the cleat. Back again. Turn, twist, and pull.

Voila. I'm going to need to see that again.

It's okay. We've got all week.

Okay. So, there are three major transient orca pods. The B, D, and E

Yep. Bravo, Delta, and Echo.

Bravo's the biggest, but Delta has granny.

Granny? Yeah.

She's the oldest orca we have around here.

105 years old.

Don't tell her I told you her age. Okay.

And their societal structure is matriarchal, right?

Meaning that sons and daughters will stay with their mothers even after

had offspring of their own. Yeah.

They have really strong family bonds.

That's crazy. That must mean that Granny pretty much runs everything around

here. She sure does.

I wouldn't want to mess with her. She's kind of like the... Karma.

So what about the Echo pod? Well, Echo is the smallest of the three, which kind

of makes it my favorite.

There's nine of them in a really tight -knit unit.

We saw Bravo and Delta today. Where do you think Echo is?

That's a good question.

When I think of it, I haven't seen them for a while.

Is that normal?

For an entire pod to be MIA this time of year, not really.

But I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Just a fluke.

They're a joke. Oh, a bad one.

Thank you.

But don't show up.

They have to.

Problem.

Without you, first.

Delta.

I'll find you, Echo.

Good morning, Professor.

Chloe, good morning. How was it?

It was incredible.

I got close with two of the three orca pods that migrate through these waters.

I've been watching your underwater footage on the link you sent me. I could

sit at the computer and watch it all day.

Aren't they just magnificent?

I'm happy to hear you're starting to see the whales in their natural habitat.

Now, where's the third pod?

I'm not sure.

But I was thinking of conducting some onshore tests today to see if there

be a reason the echo pod is missing.

That's a good idea.

Do everything you can to locate them.

Without all three of the local pods to research, any study you carry out would

be inconclusive.

I'm afraid of.

You know better than anyone that where there are questions, there are answers.

Go out and find them.

Thank you.

Still looking for the whales?

Yes.

You know, those orcas have always been unpredictable.

You know, on the Florida coast, we saw a major drop -off of the right whales.

And then when I investigated, we saw that their food source had been

compromised. Well, you think the echopod might be migrating somewhere else to

feed? Well, I think it's a good place to start.

I know I'd migrate here for your cupcakes.

They're so good. Thank you.

Looking to do some crabbing today?

No, no, thank you.

I was actually wondering, have you seen the Echopod recently?

You know what? I don't think I have. Hey, Adrian.

Yes, Captain.

Have you seen Echopod recently?

Oh, that's the little one, right?

Not since last year.

I wonder why.

How's the salmon run this season?

I'd say it's the healthiest it's ever been.

Yeah, every whale in the region should be here.

If we see them, we can let you know.

Yeah, please do.

I'm starting to get a little worried.

Good luck, Chloe.

Thank you.

What's up, Doc?

Hey. How's it going?

It'd be better if I could figure out where the echo pod is.

Oh, I put a call out to some of the other whale -watching boats.

Nothing yet.

It's weird.

I checked the water temperature. It seems normal.

There's no parasites in the local shellfish, and there's plenty of salmon

running. I've been doing this a long time, and every season the whales get me

chasing my tail.

I don't have all season.

I have a research study that needs evidence backed up by all three of the

What about a water sample?

That's a good idea.

I could take an extraction of the volumes of mutations of the

Algae, Ben, the base layer of the marine food chain. Right.

Healthy supplies of it mean happy whales.

Happy whales.

Well,

I know a great spot to get a sample.

Are you going to eat that?

Yeah, of course I am. Let's go. Hey.

Hurry.

Come on in.

You're lucky you came during the one week of the year where the water is

Ish. Yeah, I forgot to say ish.

The water's not going to sample itself.

We become one with the water.

That's it. We become one with hypothermia.

I like to do a few cold plunges a week, followed up with a beach bonfire.

You know what people usually like to avoid?

Torture. Ah, right.

Hey, there just looks like there's a bit of algae in here.

Okay, gotta go. I can't feel my feet.

Oh, slippery. Yeah, definitely, definitely algae.

What? I have some weather rolling in.

What, does that mean we can't go out on the water tomorrow?

It depends.

I mean, rain we can handle, but if it's bad winds, we'll have to stay on shore.

Hey, uh, do you want to grab a bite of Mary's? Her sign says bed and breakfast,

but she really serves something hot all day.

Maybe another time. I, uh, gotta go defrost.

Yeah, of course.

I'm up those feet.

All right, well, see you around.

Bye. Bye.

Argus? Hey, Chloe.

What are you doing at school?

I'm just moving into my side of the office.

I did take up a little bit more than half, if I'm being honest, but you keep

your microscope in the lab, right?

Mark it. Look, I know I'm supposed to give you a space this week. I do, but,

know, I just wanted to check in on the orchids.

We saw them jumping, splashing, and playing. It was amazing.

Nice. I thought they only did that stuff at the aquarium.

No. No, they do it in the ocean, too.

Look, Chloe, I know that sometimes we're on different wavelengths.

But I really believe that this shared office is going to bring us closer

together. I know you do.

Don't worry.

Keep your side of the office warm.

Yeah.

are you Echo?

I didn't want you to get soaked first thing on your way to breakfast.

That is so nice. Thank you. Oh, it's just a little tea and toast.

Boy,

that rain is something.

It seems you might be landlocked today.

Yeah, I think my study's going to be put on pause.

You just got to get creative.

Creative? How can I be creative in this?

Well, being this close to the ocean might give you some great ideas.

See you later.

I'm sorry. Did I wake you? No, no. I was just enjoying the pitter -patter.

Thanks.

Well, they don't call it the wet coast for nothing.

Bit of a holler out there.

One of my experiences. No sun, last forever.

Everything okay?

The water samples came back clean.

I need some inspiration to figure out why the echo pod is still missing.

You know what?

I know a place. It's just my house.

Come on.

Let's go check it out.

Wow!

Yeah, we call this guy Biggie. I can understand why.

We're lucky to have such an extensive variety of whales. We study them right

here in Cable Cove.

Even after they lived out their best lives.

Whoa, whoa.

Have the orcas really been in the Salish Sea for 5 ,000 years?

Yep. That's our best estimate.

Wow.

I want to show you another room. It's kind of my favorite place.

I call this the playground.

Wow. Cool.

It's mostly family heirlooms that have been passed down over generations.

This is actually a part of a whale bone that's converted into an axe. No way.

I can touch? Absolutely. Wow.

Cool. Uh -huh. Mm -hmm.

And this was actually a mold of my teeth when I was younger. Oh.

I used to get caught when I'm holding teeth. I know.

I know what this is.

Of course you do.

This here is an orcophant.

That's right.

I actually found this guy.

He was washed up on one of our local beaches.

Really? Mm -hmm.

I think it's exceptional what you have here.

Yeah, I just hope it inspires the next generation, the next whale watchers, the

next doctors.

Hey, do you think I can get some of the footage from your underwater camera?

Of course.

I've never seen our pods from that perspective before, and I'd love to show

people we work with. Sure, I'll send you the link tonight. Hopefully there'll be

more footage to add if we get back on the water.

The weather's clearing up a bit.

It might be a little late to get on the boat, but there is a place I could take

you where we could see the whales.

Out of the water. It's a bit of a hike, but the views are killer.

If you're up for it.

Yeah, I'm going to go. Come on.

Ben? Yes?

All right, we've got to hurry.

Hurry for what?

The sun is going down. Oh, right. Okay.

All right.

Step up.

Okay, thank you.

Almost there.

Ah, dear. Got it?

I thought it'd be cool for you to see the whale migration from a different

viewpoint. Oh, my goodness.

See over there? Uh, yeah.

Those are the Broken Islands.

That's pretty much the start of the Salish Sound.

Oh, it's like a gateway, right?

Exactly. If the Echo Pod isn't already in the sound, then they should be

arriving shortly right through those islands.

That's my last guess.

And they'll come.

We just, uh, have to be patient.

Yeah, I just wish I had time to wait around and see you.

Can you extend your study by a few days?

Or a week?

I don't think so.

I'd missed an important scholarship deadline, and I'm supposed to be moving

with my boyfriend.

Oh.

Those are some good reasons to get back to Florida.

Well, not like in, in.

It's complicated.

Yeah.

What's the research application thing?

Oh, my professor wants me to apply for a scholarship. That would mean I could

spend more time here.

Not here physically, but maybe.

I like that.

Look.

It's off the point.

You see it?

Look closely.

Look,

there's another one.

Very cool,

huh?

Thank you for bringing me here.

Yeah, the weather can change quite a bit out here this time of year.

One minute it's rainy, the next minute it's sunny.

But the good news is, tomorrow is supposed to be clear.

So we can spend the whole day on the water together.

Uh, together with whales, that is. Right, right.

Uh, you want some coffee?

Oh, yes, please, thank you.

Great. You know, that'll actually be great for me. I want to take out my

hydrophone. If we can get close enough to a pod, we can listen to their

communication. Ah.

I see. And what do you think they'll be saying?

Well, it really depends on the sound. They're super smart and social, so they

tend to talk a lot.

Well, they get along great with Mandarin.

I wonder where Mary is.

Mary?

Mary?

Oh,

hey. Mary, what's wrong?

That storm last night was brutal.

So many trees are down, and the only road into Cable Cove is underwater.

Our guests for the weekend are stranded in the next town over with no way in.

Oh, Mary.

It's okay. We'll figure it out. Oh, thank you.

Looks like all the reservations are for tourists from out of town, and they're

all set to get here tomorrow.

That means no whale watching, no fishing boat, no dock party.

I mean, this is our biggest weekend of the year, and Cable Cove is going to be

empty. How far away is the next town?

It's Port Douglas, about an hour by car, but the only problem is it's one road

in and one road out. And that road is closed.

How far is it by boat?

All right, it's looking like about four hours to Port Douglas and back by boat.

That is, if you time it right, going through Deception Pass. That's right.

What's Deception Pass?

It's a narrow pass in a shallow body of water.

Boats don't usually go through there unless they have to adapt to community

seating. Hence the name.

You have to time yourself perfectly with the tides, otherwise you'll bottom out.

Right now, this is our only chance of getting our guests into Cable Cove. I

think it's worth the risk.

Yeah, I can go through first, radio back to the other boats when it's safe for

passage.

I'll get it done.

We'll get it done.

You are my hero, Ben.

Well, this is the search and pass, but I'm not loving the look of that channel

marker up there.

Looking a little too deceptive?

Yes, exactly.

Yeah, our timing might be out by a couple hours.

What do you say we drop anchor?

Aye, aye, Captain.

Right.

Back here. Oh, right. Yeah.

Troll the boat to hold off until it's past school. Okay. If you really want to

understand the whales, you've got to listen.

Sorry, what was that?

Funny. This here is a hydrophone. It picks up signals from all over the

way further out than a camera could ever capture.

We drop it in, and the low -frequency calls are collected onto an app. We can

also listen right here.

So my Aunt Doreen, she works with the museum. She said that you could use the

space as a research facility.

Yeah, and we thought maybe the history might inspire you. That would be great.

Thank you so much.

Hey, wait.

Do you hear that clicking sound?

Yeah. That's the orchids using echolocation to find food.

They make noises through this space in their forehead called the melon.

It's pretty cool, right? Yeah.

Well, do you hear that?

That high pitch sound?

That's them talking to each other.

I hope they're close.

Look, they're here.

Four,

five, six, seven.

It's definitely a smaller pod.

Eight, nine, yeah. I think this might be... Is it the Echo Pod?

That sounds...

Hi. Thank you.

Yeah, a lot of whale action on the water recently.

Here you go.

We could help. Standing at Mary's, just left at the end of the raft. There you

are. All right, bye.

Thanks. Well, one successful tourist recovery mission. And one successful

Pod location.

Yippee!

Oh, nice job.

Yeah, I had a good teacher.

Oh.

Maybe I could take him today sometime.

I know just the place.

It's close by. The great view.

Wonderful owner.

You talking about Mary?

Mm -hmm.

Ding, ding, ding.

Look,

I got him for you.

I wish I could jump that high.

Wow, I can't believe I captured that.

Hey, do you see that right there? Yeah.

Yeah, that's Betty. She's one of the adult females.

I know it's hard to tell with the way the water distorts the images, but

something seem different about her?

Maybe.

I'd like to see it blown up bigger.

Yeah, I'll upload it tonight and get a closer look.

But really, I'd like to see all your photos blown up bigger.

You're such a talented photographer.

And your underwater footage is incredible.

You got my link?

Yeah. And I shared it with my sister, who teaches kindergarten.

The kids went nuts. I love imagining that other people are watching the

There's something about the way you see whales.

I just, I wish more people could see them the way you do.

Do you think that would make them want to protect them too?

Absolutely.

Oh, hey there.

Look who it is.

I have never seen Mary's like this. And I need to sit down after our day.

We haven't had crab chops that full in a long time. That's not a bad problem to

have. I can take your orders.

I can take a... Right now.

I am in the weeds, but I'm having fun.

Well, I'll take the fish and chips, please, Mary.

Okay. Fish and chips?

Looks like fish and chips all around. Four fish and chips coming right up.

Might be the last of my cod.

Food orders have been delayed with this washed out road. Oh, but I'm not

complaining. Look at this place, full of visitors.

Thanks to the two of you.

Come on, it was nothing besides, uh, we had a lot of fun.

And we found the echo pod we've been looking for.

Good, good. I can't wait to hear all about it after I drop the priors.

Thanks, Mary.

Did echo pod come into the sound?

No, they were in the straight, which Ben said is unusual for this time of year.

Yeah, it's definitely not their normal route.

But you know those orcas, they have the whole ocean to play hide and seek.

Oh, Mary, it looks like you need to use your head.

Hey, I got it. Sure.

I got it.

Oh, hi. How are you? Thank you.

So, are you staying in town long? Oh, no.

Unfortunately, I have to leave at the end of the week. Oh, that's too bad.

been nice to see Ben with someone who enjoys being at the Whale so much.

You both have a lot in common.

Don't tell him this, but I would have been lost without him. Oh, well, he's

a little lost out here himself.

I haven't seen him having such a good time in a long time.

It's been really fun.

It is so nice to have another girl around.

It's been a lot of guy stuff since X left town.

Ah, some drinks for you, ladies.

Oh, thank you.

Cheers. Cheers.

I don't understand why.

Ben.

Hey.

What are you doing up so late?

I could ask you the same thing.

I'm looking for answers.

Huh. Me too.

You know, sometimes you find out when the light hits a little different.

I'm sorry, Wes.

Come on.

You have to see for yourself.

I have never seen so many stars.

You know what they say.

There's more stars in the sky than grains of sand on Earth.

Really? It's hard to believe.

There are some things you need to see to believe.

Like tonight.

I knew I couldn't tell you. You need to see for yourself.

Hot chocolate? Oh, yes, please.

So, what exactly am I looking for?

You'll know when you see it.

Can I get a hint?

Sure.

I spy with my little eye something that is green.

I don't see anything green.

No?

It's just magic.

I cannot believe you get to live here. No, I wouldn't want to live anywhere

else.

Have you ever been anywhere else? Yes.

Thank you. All right.

We tried the city out for a few months last year, but sometimes it's more than

just the geography that can be bad.

And sometimes you come to a place that seems far away, and it feels like home.

What about you?

Are you finding the answers you're looking for out there?

Yeah.

Yeah.

I don't know.

You?

I think all my questions are still on my desk.

You know, I was actually thinking of listening to the sonar recordings until

am fluent in Orca.

But I don't know. I feel like I'm going to take a miracle.

Nightlight tonight kind of makes a miracle seem possible.

Doesn't it?

Yes, open the email and the attachment.

Now compare that to the aerial image of the echo pod from last year.

Do you see it? There does seem to be a much more significant bulge in her

abdominal region.

Right, right, because she's pregnant.

I would be inclined to agree with you.

Given the southern resident orca whale's small population, this is a phenomenal

discovery, Chloe.

How will we know when she's due?

Orca whales gestate for 15 to 18 months.

She's showing, but she could still have a ways to go.

You know, I was wondering if her pregnancy has anything to do with the

changing their migration patterns.

Is this what you're exploring for your Ph .D. thesis?

Yeah, plus I was actually thinking I could build a website and live stream

underwater footage I've been getting.

The more people feel like they know the whale, the more they'll want to protect

them. That sounds like a great idea and an excellent addition to your research.

It's just that it would take a lot more time and funding to stay here long

enough to be able to do that.

That's what scholarships are for.

Chloe, you have an incredible opportunity over there at Cable Cove to

make a difference.

Now, the application deadline for the National Doctoral Scholarship closes at

midnight on Sunday.

That's the same night you're flying out.

Do you think you can get it done by then?

I've heard this is a place where miracles are possible.

I'm looking for Ben Winters. Is he around?

No, no, I think he's on whale watching. Of course, always with his whales.

Some things never change.

If you see Ben, do you mind telling him I'm here waiting?

Who should I say is here waiting?

Shannon.

I guess you could call me an old friend.

Hey, Doc.

How did I find you here?

Hi.

Wow. Nice man center.

Thanks. And guess what?

Betty is pregnant.

What? Mm -hmm.

No way. This is great news. Not only is she expecting, if you look at the images

from last year, she was pregnant then, too, which means she's doing it now.

We have to let everyone know.

This is great that the passing boats need to slow down. I need to let the

watchers know that they need to stay an extra ten. Ten? No, no, no. Twenty feet

away. Ten?

Yeah? Take a breath.

I am pretty sure the pod's already protecting her.

Yeah.

Right.

I also made one other discovery today.

Shannon.

Oh. It was Shannon.

Shannon's my ex.

Girlfriend. Oh.

Yeah.

Hope she's not still waiting at your office.

Oh, no. No, she's just returning my kayak paddles that I was storing with

Yeah, her and her boyfriend are turning their shed into a vlogging space for

their cats.

Hmm. Yeah. But on the plus side, I got my paddles back.

I was thinking there's this really cool, super awesome spot I could take you.

I don't know. That seems pretty... Romantic?

If not, totally professional.

Scout's honor.

Or, definitely is.

Okay.

Mae, why are you taking those down?

The stake in Lobster didn't make it past the washed -out road in time.

No. There's no surf and turf.

Isn't there something we can do?

Well, I'm afraid the only thing to do now is figure out how to refund all that

ticket money.

No, don't do that.

We'll figure it out.

Yeah, the dock party's a longer -standing tradition in Cable Cove.

There's a chance for Mary and the rest of the time to show off a little.

There's got to be a solution.

I just hope I can figure it out in time.

We hit water.

What? You said we hit water.

What? I'm in the water.

Okay, we're going to set it down on the count of three. Ready?

One, two, three.

I'm set.

All right. All right, come on.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Oh, we can't.

Play in the ocean if you're afraid of getting wet.

Okay.

Deep breath. Okay.

Happy thoughts.

And have fun.

Okay. The greatest thing I ever saw walking through my open door was you.

If what I say is true, every time you call my name, you'd be there right on my

mind, just you.

And only you.

In a crowded room, this world is built for two.

Look into my eyes, early in the morning till the light

runs dry.

Oh, Phil?

Phil,

what do you think? I mean, Beth, it's beautiful.

Right?

Yeah, this place is a bit of a local scene.

is perfect.

Huh?

I'm glad you like a little corner of the world.

You'd be surprised what we find here.

You know what? I got an idea.

Stay here.

Don't look.

And no peeking. Okay? Okay.

Hope you're hungry.

Oysters? Mm -hmm.

I thought you said this wasn't going to be romantic.

It's not romance. It's substance.

Oh,

thank you, but I don't eat raw fish.

Well, it's not eating. It's experience.

Besides, 100 % protein. Oh. It's good for you. Oh.

Come on.

Okay.

So?

Good, I liked it. Good.

Another one? Okay.

I'm going to join you.

Cheers. Cheers.

It's magic you have to see to believe.

It's magic you have to see to believe.

So, Debbie.

So, I was curious.

Do you have any theories about the Echopod yet?

I have one, and I'm basing my entire scholarship application on it, so I hope

it's right.

Well, let's hear it.

I believe that the Echo Orca pod is changing their migratory patterns to

the needs of pregnant Betty.

They're staying out in the streets, where there's less traffic, less

for food.

They're nesting, if you will. Yeah.

My hypothesis is that once Betty's calf is born, they'll move to the sounds of

the rest of the world.

Sounds like a pretty solid conclusion to me.

Oh, no.

I will not have a conclusion until I have evidence, which I'm hoping comes in

the form of a happy, healthy baby whip.

So what you're really saying is that your study is just another thing you

to see and believe.

You got it.

So, um, did you plant those oysters, or did you pick them up off the beach?

Right off the beach. Wow.

There's tons of food to forage around here.

Yeah, you're right.

There is plenty to forage here. And Adrian said he had more crab than he

what to do with.

What are you saying?

I'm saying Mary doesn't need steak and lobster to have a dock party when she

a whole ocean full of fine dining right at her front door.

You're totally right.

Wait.

What is it?

Betty, Betty?

Oh, my gosh.

Do you want your camera?

No.

This is special.

This is just for us.

Which means the Echo Pot is moving closer to the town. So the cat could be

any day now.

Mary, great news.

We don't have to cancel the fundraiser. You're able to bring lobsters back to

life? Uh, no. We were thinking instead of flown -in food, how about we build a

menu of all local ingredients?

And McCable Cove has all the fresh seafood we need. The tourists will get a

great kick out of having to farm the table.

ocean -to -table experience.

Well, I don't know. I just stored away all the linens and fancy china.

In the South, we do this thing called a seafood boil -up, where we just roll

some paper down a table and then dump everything in the middle. That's a great

idea. Sounds messy.

Messy? Yes. Fun? Also yes.

Sounds like we got it all figured out.

Absolutely. I'll get the posters, let everyone know.

It's gonna be amazing. Party time!

Woo!

Quite the dynamic duo you two are.

Chemistry is undeniable, Chloe.

Everyone can feel it, even if you pretend not to.

Ben and I have something.

You're right.

But in two days, I'm going to be on a plane to Miami, and he is going to be

in Cable Cove where he belongs.

Well, don't you feel like you belong here, too?

Maybe.

Truthfully, this whole week has made me wonder what I'd be going back to Miami

for.

You know, whatever you want to call it between you and Ben, it's there.

It's here.

And whatever you choose to do with it is up to you.

Take it from me.

Something like this only comes around once in a lifetime.

If you're lucky.

and southern expertise.

Ah.

Wrapping paper or brown packing paper?

Brown paper.

All right. And no plates, you sure?

Yeah, everything just gets thrown out down the middle, which means we need

of napkins.

Got it.

Some of the photos you took this week, do you mind if I use them for my

Oh, yeah, of course.

There's the least I could do. There you go. Thanks.

What you working on?

My thesis.

I'm using it to pitch a live stream web link for anyone that wants to watch the

whales underwater.

When you said the kindergartners like watching it, I am.

You've inspired me.

I inspired you.

Why?

You've been inspiring me all week.

I'd love to take you out on your last day.

You don't have to do that.

I want to.

The marine magic's much better used for whale studying than just whale watching.

Yeah.

Make no bones about it.

Get it? Mm -hmm.

Whale bones?

Yep. It was funny.

You're laughing.

Amen.

Marcus, we need to talk. Okay.

Is everything okay?

It is better than I ever could have imagined.

Chloe, you're breaking up.

Are you there?

Yeah, barely.

What was it that you need to talk about?

I don't think this is working.

You're doing a lot of working. That's great.

No, Marcus, what I'm trying to say is... Chloe, look, I can barely hear you, so

why don't we just chat when you get back, okay?

So dinner starts at 5, which means we only have a few hours to turn this town

into the best party that anyone's ever seen.

Let's do this.

We're going to move the round patio tables out and replace them with the

dinner tables. Copy that.

Ben, Chloe, you're going to add those twinkly lights to the dance floor,

Good. And Adrian, I need you to bring your guitar.

You got it. Okay.

Well, let's do it and have some fun.

Let's go, team.

All right.

Hey, go.

Oh.

Amazing. Well, we did it. We actually pulled it off.

I have a feeling it's going to be the best stock party yet. And one I need to

get cleaned up for. All right.

We'll see you tonight.

Wow. Look at this.

Oh, my goodness. A little bit of everything.

There you go.

There you go.

Oh, thanks, man.

Oh, look at you in a white suit. I swear I don't want you to get anything on it.

Oh, wow.

There you go. Thank you, Mary. This is special.

Whoa.

You look amazing.

Thank you.

And I am wearing a bib.

Yes, you are.

Then you turned my photos into posters.

I did.

I hope that's okay.

What I didn't expect is for the tourists to start making bids on them.

And your photos just made a bunch of money for the fund.

I don't know what to say.

Don't say you want one because we're all sold out.

May I?

Yes.

Thank you.

Ah, this is so much fun, Chloe.

Hi. What a good idea.

I've never been a fan of fine dining. It's hard to make rubber boots look

classy. Well, I think you look gorgeous, and this looks delicious.

Good job, everybody.

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers.

And just when we thought we'd seen it all from Ben, he goes to throw the trap

the water and forgets to let go.

and everything.

I mean, you should have seen his face when he came back up. He did say he

his cold plunges. Yeah, and he's just happy that it wasn't a time when we all

kept our cell phones in our pockets.

I'm laughing so hard I'm crying.

Excuse me.

Still don't have a cell phone.

For the record.

Well, you might not be much of a fisherman, but you are one fine tour

Thank you.

Shall we?

Like a river.

One merciless motion.

Found for a treasured thing.

Love.

Like a rain. No napkin.

But we need to serve dessert.

Um, we should help.

Yeah, sure. Um, there's some napkins in my office.

Okay.

Everything okay?

I don't want this to end tomorrow.

I need more time for my study, more time for... I

usually just keep to myself around here.

Same schedule, same routines, same people.

And you came here and you changed all of that.

Chloe, you changed everything.

I never realized how amazing it would be to share all this with

someone.

And so you.

I mean, it's been fun. More than fun.

It's been incredible.

I don't want it to end either.

But Cable Cove isn't going anywhere. I'm not going anywhere.

And anytime you want to come back and visit, everything is going to be exactly

how you left it. Oh, with at least one more orca.

And that's all for tonight, folks.

Make sure you have a great night's sleep, because your eyes will be wide

for whale watching tomorrow.

You know, I don't usually take Adrian's advice, but I think he might have a

point on this one. Right, right. I would like to be up before the birds

tomorrow. I always thought you were a bit of a night owl.

Pardon the interruption.

Do you know where I can find the boat Total Eclipse?

Yeah, we keep her down on Slip 37.

But we're keeping the big boats off the water today.

Not for what I paid for.

See, my girlfriend, she studies, uh, well, fish.

And, uh, can't wait to see Chloe's face when she sees the super yacht I rented.

Uh, Chloe Turner?

Yeah. Yeah, you know her?

Yeah. Yeah, I've seen her around all week.

Huh.

It's a small town.

Right.

You know, I should be looking for the Echo Pod today.

So, um, you're best bet is to take the boat slowly around the Broken Islands.

Right. Thanks, man.

Oh, uh, oh, sorry about that.

Don't worry about it.

Shouldn't have put it there in the first place.

Marcus? Hey, surprise!

What are you doing here? I came to win you back with a big romantic gesture.

Yeah, by flying all the way here to this place. Where am I?

Cable Cove. Cable Cove, right.

Well, it's no Miami, but maybe it's better from the water.

Runs it off. Biggest boat in the harbor.

Six engines.

You can't. I can't.

What do you mean?

Marcus, I can't do this anymore.

I don't think you understand me.

Honestly, I don't think we understand each other.

There is something about us that doesn't click, and I know that you feel it,

too.

Yeah. I do.

I get it.

I just can't believe we're breaking up after I flew all the way here in coach.

You are so brave.

You are such a special guy.

I would really like it if we could still be friends.

Of course.

And hey, I tried.

I know you did.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be.

You obviously love it here.

I can see it all over your face. You're glowing.

I just want you to be happy.

Thank you.

Okay, well, better hurry if I want to get a plane out of here.

I wonder if I can still get a refund on that phone.

Bye, you.

Bye, Marcus.

Oh.

Mary, have you seen Ben?

Yeah, sure. He jetted off on his boat.

That's strange. We were supposed to go together.

Well, Marcus told him that he was taking you on a super yacht instead.

You what?

Yeah, Ben even told the other boats to call out to Total Eclipse if anyone saw

the echo pod.

No, I was never going to go with Marcus. I was waiting for Ben. I have to get to

his boat. Chloe, all the guide boats are out whale watching already.

No one else is going out.

got to do is let go instead of holding on so tight breathing

in and take the slow road instead of racing through the night we

will know within the silence that we're always trying to feel

and we'll never feel the earth move if we're never standing

still

Thank you.

You're not leaving already, are you?

Yeah, I booked an earlier flight.

But what about your scholarship application?

I don't have a boat.

Or a Ben.

Mary, I just wanted to say thank you.

Now, how much do I owe you?

Oh, you don't owe me a cent.

Not after everything that you've done for me.

I only wish there was more that I could do for you right now.

Are you sure you want to leave without saying goodbye to Ben?

It's for the best.

Without the possibility of a research scholarship, there is no way I can stay

Cable Cove. Well, can I get you anything before you leave? Tea? Coffee?

Wine?

Tempting. My car's going to be here any minute.

You will always have a cabin here, Chloe.

You have changed this little town for the better and made your mark on all of

us, especially Ben.

This is Shore calling Marine Magic. What is your location?

Marine Magic.

Come in, Marine Magic.

Ben, please, Ben.

This is Crab Buckets, Marine Magic. We've just talked to the harbor. Turning

around immediately.

Hold on, buddy.

That's Adrian. He's at the marina.

Hurry, go.

and the water is so cold. How could anyone... He's okay.

It's Ben.

He's always okay.

Crab buckets, marine magic. Command.

Crab buckets, marine magic.

If his radio isn't working, does that mean it's underwater?

I'm sure it's electric. I'm just glad it's not.

But he's definitely not hearing us from here.

Maybe he's at the inlet.

How far is it?

Four and a half nautical miles.

All right. Hold on. I'm putting her in overdrive.

Guys, I'm so sorry.

My engine flooded and took out my electrical, and I've just been floating

around, reconsidering my whole no cell phone thing.

We'll get it ready for a tow. Thank you.

Ben,

I didn't know that Marcus was going to show up like that. Hey, Cole, you don't

explain it. No, I do.

Marcus and I broke up.

What? He's going back to Miami.

We were never a match, and I tried so hard to ignore that. But when I met you,

something just clicked.

I feel the same way.

With you, all the pieces, they just, I don't know, they just fit.

Everything's new and fresh and exciting and easy, even when it's not.

With you, I finally get what people are talking about when they say, when the

right one comes along, you'll know.

Well, Ben, there are three things I know.

I know I belong in cable coat.

I know you are who I belong with.

And I know I love you.

I love you too, Chloe.

I think so.

Oh, my goodness.

Wow.

Whoa, Ben, is that a baby whale?

Yes, it is. Oh, my goodness.

Hi.

Hi, baby whale. Welcome to the world.

I believe our littlest pod just got a lot cuter. Yeah, it did.

And they're this out, which means... My research study was right.

I'm so proud of you. Thank you.

All right.

Let's get you back to Cape Cove. I think someone has a research application to

complete.

There's plenty of time for that tonight.

This is the kind of magic you have to see to believe.

Good morning, Professor.

Good morning, Chloe Turner.

The board has reviewed your application, and we do have good news.

It was easily one of the best applications we've ever received.

You're kidding.

We're also awarding you three additional grants.

Combined, this should allow you to stay at Cable Cove and start up your whale

live stream.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

We're going to miss you here in Miami, but the world will be better off for it.

Congratulations, Chloe.

So?

Yes!

I knew it.

Which means I get to stay in Camel Co.

Congratulations, Dr. Chloe Turner.

I am still not a doctor.

I've been exchanging messages for years.

Are you finally going to meet him in person?

What if... Hi.

Hi. You met your all -time super crush.

My dad doesn't trust musicians.

Your secret to safe was your outfit.

That's what I mean.

He's a singer and I believe he has five gold records.

Musician. That went well.

Alexa and Carlos Pennevega. Love in the limelight. All new next Saturday night

at 8. Part of Fall Into Love. On all...
