All language subtitles for Cedar Cove 1x01 - Pilot

Oh, hi!

Good morning!

I will have a black coffee,
large.

Caffeine?

Oh yeah.

Sucks the vitamins and nutrients
right out of your body.

You are too beautiful
and too smart

To be schlepping
organic bagels

And selling
old Elton John albums.

Well, that is the problem
with a degree in fine arts.

It qualifies you to do
absolutely nothing.

Onion bagel,
cream cheese on the side.

Wonderful.
That's fantastic.

Whoa, what is this?

I haven't seen
this before.

Is this new?

Yeah, I made it the other day.

Moon's going to
clear out that cabinet

So I can sell them.

Really?
That's nice of him.

You know, if you had
some start-up money,

Yeah, and if I had a degree
in accounting,

Then I could have
a real, grown-up job.

Ah, touche.

Cook for me tonight?

You know I will.

Love you.
Have a good day!

Yeah, that caffeine,

It chemically stimulates
your stress responses.

Kind of like finding
a snake in your bed.

You pull back the covers--

Your heart starts pounding,
you're short of breath,

You break into a sweat.

Caffeine.

Well, if you feel this way,
why are...

You know,

Well, it's not my place
to Judge, man.

Now, you have yourself
a fine day.

Alrighty then. Okay.

Judge Lockhart
doesn't like to waste time,

So we should be
out of there by 10:00.

Yeah, well, it's a divorce,
not first-degree murder.

But, Lockhart runs
a pretty tight ship,

So don't say anything

Unless you're asked
a direct question, okay?

...Both sides are in agreement
as to distribution of property.

Support is moot

Since there are no children--

Did you have
something to say,

Mrs. Rendall?

Mm-mm.

Did your attorney

Advise you not to speak
in my courtroom?

Well, I'm asking you
a question,

So what did you want to say?

Uh, well...

J-just that...

There was a child?

Um...

But she passed away.

Her heart...

She was born with...

It was congenital.

Um--
she was four days old.

What was her name?

Allison Marie.

Allison Marie.

That's a beautiful name.

And I am

Very, very sorry for your loss.

However...

I am not going to give
a final ruling

On this decree today.

Your honor,
we were hoping--

I know what
you were hoping for, counselor,

But this petition
needs further study,

And I am issuing a continuance
for 90 days--

I'm about to ship out
for six months,

And, you know, I'd really
like this wrapped up.

I understand,

But I do not rush
into making important decisions

For the sake
of convenience.

Court adjourned.

Your honor,
if I may...

Your honor--

You know he's not
supposed to be in here.

They allow
seeing eye dogs.

You're not blind, mom.

So, what went on in there
just now?

What are you talking about?

That young couple.

If they were anxious to end it,
why not let them?

You know
I can't discuss that.

What are you knitting?

Well, it started as a scarf.

I think I got carried away,

And now
it's a blanket.

Yes! Come in!

Oh, hi, Judge.

I'm Jack Griffith.

Hi.

Hi. I'm the new
editor-in-chief,

Star reporter, photographer

Circulation manager

Of the "Cedar Cove Chronicle."

Congratulations.

What can I do for you?

Well, I would love
to talk to you today

About that decision in there.

I can't discuss that.

It just seems that
an uncontested divorce

Would be a slam dunk.

Mr. Griffith--

Jack.

Jack,

If you hang out in courtrooms

Long enough,

You'll find that
when it comes to the law,

There is no such thing
as a slam dunk.

Is there anything else
I could do for you.

I've got it.

Um...No.

Hello?

Well, nice to meet you.

Welcome to Cedar Cove.

All right. Thank you.

Oh, and, Jack,
could you do me a favor?

Anything.

Please don't ever bring
a cup of coffee

Into my courtroom again.

Oh, well,
I was just--

It's Senator Rayman's office!

Petey?

Senator Rayman.

The first time I met him
was at a frat party,

And he had his head
in a bucket of margaritas.

Hi, Petey!

Well, is it
re-election time already?

I thought I just
sent you a check.

No, for once,
I'm not calling about money.

Um, I guess you've heard
that Judge Bloom is retiring.

I heard.

What?

Heard what?

Mom, please.

Well, you are
on a very short list

Of possible replacements,

And I just wanted
to gauge your interest

Before I floated
your name out there.

I would be
very, very interested.

All right, well, I'm going to
get the ball rolling here.

Please do me a favor.

Don't spread this around

I want my office
to make the announcement.

Of course, Petey.

I'll be in touch.

This is cruel.

What did he say? What?

Oh, my gosh...

You know, this is
driving me nuts.

Nobody knows
who this guy is.

You could try City Hall.

No, they had a fire
back in the '30s.

No records.
Nobody knows.

Is it really
that important to you?

What kind of town
has a statue

And nobody knows who it is?

This one, obviously.

Oh, that's the mom
right here.

Hi, excuse me.

Could I talk to you
for a minute?

My name is Jack Griffith.
I'm with the--

You should really
dedicate a page every week

To seniors' activities.

Well, that's...

That's actually not a bad idea.

But what I wanted to talk
to you about--

Oh!

Wally Dorfman!

Wally Dorfman?

Come on, you don't
wanna miss this.

I wonder what he caught
this time.

He a fisherman?

Well, sort of.

Look at that thing.

Hey, nice catch, Wally!

It's a bike.

A ten speed.

Gonna ride
that one home,

Wally catches the most
interesting things.

Last time it was
the back of a '72 Camaro.

That "Vote Nixon"
bumper sticker on it.

Wow, let's hope

He doesn't do
catch-and-release.

I just really think

That the people of this town

Would love to read more
about their Judge.

I'm not sure my daughter
would like an article about her.

Well, I would make it
very flattering.

You can trust me on that.

While I've got you,
do you know who that is?

No idea.

The plaque fell off years ago.

I can't talk about
any of her decisions.

No, no, no, of course not.

I'm thinking
more background stuff.

Such as?

Oh, like, um...

I don't know.

Is she married?

Divorced?

Single?

And he doesn't mention
the federal thing.

See? I can
keep a secret.

And how did he find out
the personal stuff?

Oh, that I might have told him.

We had coffee.

He loves coffee.

He just moved here

Well, that explains
a couple of things.

He's single.

Well, divorced,

And I think he might like you.

What are we, on the playground
here, or something?

Why are you upset?

It's a flattering
article, honey.

He makes you sound
very independent.

That's not the point.

It was a simple
little divorce case,

And he's trying
to stir up controversy,

And I don't need that.

Well, I wouldn't
worry about it.

One little article.

I'm sure
it's no big deal.

He's nice looking,
don't you think?

Am I late?

No, I'm early for once

I ordered for you.

I have some news.

I know!
The Judge thing.

Congratulations.

How did you--

Grandma.

Your grandmother.
I should have known.

She's better than Facebook.

Well, it's not official yet,
so don't be spreading it around.

It's not me
you've got to worry about.

It's your mother.

You don't have to wear it
just to be polite.

I'm not being polite.

I like it.

I'm going through
your jewelry box

And stealing back
all the old stuff I made you.

It might be worth

A lot of money someday.

Like an early Van Gogh sketch

Maybe I should cut off an ear
to help it sell better.

You got me one scoop?

You said you were fat.

I'm not fat.

I didn't say you were fat.

I'm quoting you.

Last time we left here,
you said,

"don't let me get the large.
I feel fat."

Well, I always feel fat
when we leave here,

But don't listen to me.

So, are we still on
for dinner next week?

Can I bring Warren?

Sure.

You don't mind?

If I minded, I would say so.

Hey!

And stay out of
my jewelry box.

New idea.
What do you think?

What?

Ooh, very pretty.

Easy, too.

I could knock out a dozen
in a couple hours.

You know, I have to be honest
with you, sweetheart,

I always knew
you were a little weird

When you asked for
a soldering gun

For your birthday.

What is that you're doing?

You always rinse fish
in sea salt first.

Didn't your mother ever teach
you anything about cooking?

My mother is a brilliant woman,

But from the time I was 16,

I thought all food
was cooked in a microwave.

Speaking of
your lovely mother,

She, uh, doesn't quite
approve of me, does she?

I think she just feels
a little funny

'cause you're only a couple
years younger than she is.

Has she mentioned that
I've been in her courtroom?

No.

What for?

Come on, honey,
I'm a developer.

You don't build
over a hundred houses

Without someone
occasionally suing you.

So, how did you do?

Well, so far,
I'm batting a thousand.

I always walk out the winner.

Good.

So then the two of you
shouldn't have

Any kind of problems.

Uh, well, I hope not.

But I'm just telling you that

Before...

I give you...

This.

Marry me, Justine.

What's the problem?

It's my personal life
on the front page, dad.

Call me "Bobby," all right?

It makes us feel
a little closer.

Knowing you're old enough
to have a grown daughter.

Hey.

Hey.

So, I'm on alert.

We're going to be
shipping out soon.

Okay.

So I guess we'll have to
finalize this

when you get back.

Look, I want you
to do me a favor.

Can you take care of
the Camaro for me?

I'm going to be gone
for six months.

It's not good for it to sit,

So if you'd just
drive it around a little bit--

I don't need your car.

Yeah, 'cause that piece
of junk you're driving around

Is just great.

Okay, is that all you wanted?

What is the problem?

You're doing me a favor,

And I'll sleep better

Knowing
you're driving something

That's not going to
break down

In the middle
of the night.

Sounds like a pretty
good deal to me, babe.

Stay out of it, dad.

Okay, yeah.

Sure.

Okay, thank you.

I'll drop the keys off
before I leave.

Will you at least
look at it?

Warren, it's very sweet,
but a little crazy.

I mean, we barely
know each other.

Romeo just met Juliet
at a party.

And they were dead
by the fifth act.

Can we just leave things
the way they are?

It's crazy that
you're paying rent.

I like my little apartment.

Really?

Okay, then try that on.

No.

Why not?

Warren, I can't accept this.

And I have to go.

Where?

I told you.

And we're in the midst
of planning it right now--

Honey, I'm sorry to say this,

But you're far too young
to be having a reunion.

Should I get two tickets?

I'd show up and look like
one of the chaperones.

I'll pass.

Here she is.

All right, just in time.

Hey, sorry.

So, we're debating

DJ versus Larry's Band.

Oh, Larry's Band sucks.

How about a DJ?

Guess who's
back in town.

I was sorry to hear
about your dad.

Yeah, that's why
I came back.

I have a few
legal things to clear up.

So, where are you living now?

You should come by some time.
It's pretty nice.

I thought for sure

You would've stayed
back east after college.

Yeah, I thought
about it, but...

I don't know, just came back.

It felt right.

What were you doing in alaska?

A lot of things.

Mostly worked
on a commercial fishing boat.

Wow, tough job.

Sometimes, yeah.

I like it, though.

It keeps me in shape.

Yeah, I see that.

I mean...

You know. You look good.

Yeah.

Yeah, you too.

Really good.

Well, uh, I'd better
get going here.

It was good to see you.

Your hair
smells exactly the same.

Is that good or bad?

It's, uh... It's nice.

What do you think, Hank?

Sure don't have
any judges in Philly

That look like that.

Unbelievable.

Let's have a big hand
for our trio

From Friday Harbor.

Clearly, they've been spending
too much time

With our feathered friends.

And now for our next act...

Hi. Jack Griffith.

You don't have to keep
introducing yourself.

I heard you weren't
too crazy about my article.

Ah, where did you
hear that?

I ran into your mom.

She seems to be
the town historian.

That's a nice way
of putting it.

Look, I'm sorry
about the article.

I didn't mean
to offend you.

I just wish you would've
talked to me about it.

Hey, I tried.
Remember?

Try harder next time.

This is my first seagull
calling contest.

Oh, boy, you're
in for a treat.

Now, from Shaw Island,

We have number eight,
one of our favorites.

How about we do
some handicapping here.

I pick number eight
here to win.

Why eight?

Well, he kind of
looks like a bird.

That's my doctor.

Well, I'm sure he's
a very skilled physician,

But, come on,
you gotta admit,

He does sort of
look like a seagull.

Okay, you have a point,
but 12's going to win.

You, uh, care to put
10 bucks on that?

Done.

All right, well, now
it's a little interesting.

We have number nine
from lopez island.

Okay, tell me
the truth now,

How did you know

Number 12 was
going to win, huh?

He's won
the last four years.

Of course.

How are you settling in?

Oh, it's okay.

It's just all
a little...

Different for me.

What brought you here?

Uh, you know,
just, uh...

Just a change of scenery,
that's all.

You locked your car?

Uh, yeah.

I lock my house, too.

You know,
I'm weird that way.

Well, you're
in Cedar Cove now.

We don't lock our doors.

Well, I'll have you know,
I read in cold blood.

These charming, quaint
little towns are deathtraps.

I'm on to you people.

Well, Jack, it was fun.

See ya.

Goodbye.

Uh, Olivia? I was just
kind of wondering

If you wanted to...

You know, go for dinner?

You know, get some dinner--
with me?

Sometime?

Off the record?

Absolutely.

Well, I have to check
my calendar.

Give me a call tomorrow?

Is that a polite way
to say "Get lost"?

No. I am not that polite.
I would have said "get lost."

Call me.

I don't believe
in alphabetical order, Justine.

No one can find anything.

That's the joy of browsing.

So no sales yet?

It's only been
24 hours.

Hey.

Hey.

Plans for lunch?

Look, Seth,
I'm seeing somebody.

Yeah, I know.

He's a little old for you,
isn't he?

That is none of your business.

Okay.

So that's it?

What?

Boy, you give up easy.

If the fish ain't bitin',
you move on.

Charming analogy,

But, um,
I didn't actually say "no."

Thought you should have
all the facts.

So... When's your lunch break?

Come on, I work for Moon.

See you later, Moon.

Later.

So, what are you
going to do?

I don't know what
I'm going to do.

Maybe go back
to Alaska,

Maybe just cast off,
see where I end up.

So you don't have
any sort of plans?

My dad had plans.

He went to a job
he hated every day

So he could retire at 65
and enjoy himself.

Then he keeled over
dead at 49.

I'm sorry.

But you've still
got to do something.

Oh, I'll do something.

It's going to be
something I like.

So you're leaving?

Funny thing is, Justine,

I've been kind of
just been...

Drifting
the last few years.

Every place I landed
felt temporary.

Even if I really
liked the place,

It was always
in the back of my mind

I'd end up here
at Cedar Cove.

Just like you did.

You are not
going to believe this.

One of Senator Rayman's aides
is about to arrive any minute.

Warren bought
an engagement ring.

My hairdresser's daughter,
the one with the piercings.

Warren was in the other day
and bought a huge diamond ring.

Mom, I can't deal with this
right now.

Mom, please, the dog!

Buttercup!

I am so sorry.

Please come in, Mr. Douglas.

It's no problem.

Mr. Douglas,
you tell the Senator

My daughter
is going to make

A fabulous
federal Judge.

Okay, mom.
You can go now.

Thank you.

Thanks so much.

I am so sorry.

Oh, that's--
that's fine.

Please, have a seat.

Thank you.

Coffee's that good, huh?

I wish.

I caught a couple of kids
drinking in the playground.

Confiscate anything good?

No, they only drink
the cheap stuff.

Good morning, fellows.

How are you?

Nice to see you.

Good afternoon,
your honor.

I would have
come in, but, um,

Well, I didn't want to
get in trouble.

You drink
way too much coffee.

Listen, I thought
you might want to, uh, see this.

I found it online.

It seems

Congratulations are in order.

Hold the congratulations.

Is that I'm being considered
for federal judgeship.

Yeah?

Do you mind if I ask you
a few questions?

Jack...

Olivia, come on, this...

This is legitimate news,

For once.

What do you say, huh?

All right.

Yeah? Okay. Come on.

Why you,
do you think, huh?

No idea.

No?

Did you know
the Senator

When you guys
were at Yale?

You do your homework.

Well, I do try, ma'am.

So?

Yeah, we went
to law school together.

Ah, you see?
Connections.

Yeah, and
it's not like that

Where you come from,
I suppose.

No, no connections
are needed there,

Just a hefty bribe
will do the trick,

Believe me.

Listen,

While I...
While I have you,

Why don't I get
your picture here?

No.

I...

I'm just not
feeling really pretty today.

come on, Olivia.

You look great.

Jack, the paper has
my official portrait.

Uh-huh.

And who says
this is for the paper?

You're a piece of work.

Uh-huh. Smile.

Now, that is
a keeper.

That is a keeper.

Oh!

I don't know.

I don't know,
I kind of like that.

Relax.

Honey, I'm trying.

It's just that

Your mother can be
a very intimidating woman.

This was her idea.

Remember,
she's a terrible cook,

So choke it down,
be polite,

And we'll get pizza
on the way home.

I can't wait.

Hello.

Hi, honey.

Hi, Warren.

Hello.

Thanks.

Dinner?

I have to tell you guys,
that was amazing.

It was good.

Grandma made it,
didn't she?

Why don't you go get us
a bottle of wine?

Beautiful view
out there.

Yes, it is.

You know, she said "no"
to me, by the way.

I saw you checking out
the ring finger.

Very perceptive.

I was also a little
surprised, Olivia,

At you even
inviting me here.

I thought we should try
to get to know each other

Outside of the courtroom.

I know you weren't very happy
about some of those decisions,

And I hope down the road

I would have to recuse myself
from any further legal dealings

So why don't we just make
a fresh start?

Okay. I would love that.

I'd also like you to understand

That I'm not going through

Some mid-life crisis thing
here, okay?

I care about Justine very much.

And I know we're not
in your courtroom,

And I'm not under oath
here, your honor,

But I'd like you
to believe me.

I believe you.

And as long as
you treat her right,

We'll do just fine.

Cheers.

You've got your keys.

Owner's card. Insurance.

It's all up to date.

Well, I guess
that's all you need.

You went to her grave
the other day?

Well, it was her birthday.

It would've been her birthday.

I didn't think you'd remember.

What is that supposed to mean?

Whatever, Ian,
you weren't even here--

Come on, don't
start this again.

I was all alone--

Yeah, and I was
on a submarine

Under a polar ice cap!

I didn't even know for a week.

Yeah, but
when you came home, you...

Yeah, I what?

I what?

Go ahead.

It was like
you didn't even give a damn.

You just...

We never talked about her.

I was on that submarine
for nine days

Before they could even
let me off, all right?

Nine days,

Knowing that you were
back here, and I--

You know,
when they first told me, I...

I just, I kept walking
around that sub,

You know, looking for
a place to cry.

But there's not
a lot of privacy on a sub,

So I just had to suck it up.

And then
you know what,

I came back here,
and you were...

You were so torn up, you know?

I just, I just felt like...

Like I had to be
the strong one, you know?

I just-- I just wanted
to take care of you.

I didn't even see her.

If I could've just
seen her, I...

We're still
married, you know.

Well, not for long.

So...
Can you just go?

Ian, please,
can you just go?

Aye-aye.

I know you're not
going to believe this,

But, uh...

I was planning
to marry you

Even if you hadn't
gotten pregnant.

Try not to wreck the car.

all right.

So, our dining options
are somewhat limited here.

Unless you know
of a place

That's not listed
in any restaurant guide.

Please tell me
you know a place.

I'm afraid not.

Excellent.

What was that?

Oh, that's just Hank.

Hank?

Yes, you might ask
who Hank is.

Um, of course,
Hank is my parakeet.

I, um...

I take him into the paper
with me every day,

But I didn't have time
to run him home

Before we, you know,
we did this,

So he's in the car.

Okay--

I'm not going to bring him
into the restaurant.

I'm going to stop talking
and we're going to do this.

Okay. Yeah.

Oh, wait,
just let me get--

That's not right.

That's better.

Okay.

Your chariot awaits.

Say hello to Hank.
Hank, that's, uh--

- Olivia. Olivia,
that's my bloody bird.

Dad! That's her.

That's Judge Lockhart.

I know.

Of course, she sits at my table.

Of course she does.

Can you get Tonya, please?

Ask her to take
table 11 for me?

Why? What's the problem?

I'm not
I'm not waiting on her. Mm-mm.

Okay.
Whatever you say.

I bet
you were one of those kids

Who knew exactly
what she wanted to do

When she grew up.

Hmm?

I'm right, aren't I?

You asked santa claus
for a black robe and gavel,

Didn't you?

My father was a lawyer.

Yeah, I know.

Your mom.

Right.

Remember.

When I was little,

His office
was my most favorite place

In the whole world.

All those law books.

I used them to make
a castle out of them,

But when I got older...

I don't know.

What?

Okay...

This may sound silly,

But there was something
majestic about it.

What?

You're staring at me.

No, I'm sorry,

I was just, uh...

I'm just listening.

And what about you?

Were you born with
this burning desire

To write?

Uh, let's say

I grew up with a burning desire
to never do heavy labor.

Pretty much...

Olivia.

Stan.

You look great,
as always.

So do you.

New suit.

Nice.

Stan, this is
Jack Griffith.

Hi.
Nice to meet you.

Yeah, you've done
a great job with the paper.

I've actually started
reading it again.

Thank you.

How's Melanie?

Oh, please.

Like you care
how Melanie's doing.

I'm being polite.

Part of your charm.

Listen, I don't
want to interrupt.

I, uh, just wanted to say
it's always nice to see you,

And you really look terrific.

Thank you.

Jack.

Old friend?

Old husband.

You guys seem
awfully friendly, huh?

We are.

Is that so odd?

Compared to my ex, yeah.

We didn't
exactly have

The most, um, amicable divorce,

You could say that.

So I'm used to,
you know, sirens

And garbage trucks
and all that kind of noise.

I tell you,
my first night here,

I heard a cricket.

Kept me up
the entire night.

I mean, I literally
tore my entire place apart,

Looking for this thing.

Well, is it getting
any better?

You know, actually,

Now that I'm getting
used to the quiet,

I can actually
sleep here.

I mean, I've been
an insomniac

My entire life, but...

I don't know, there's
something about this place.

Yeah, Cedar Cove can have
that soothing effect

On people.

Yeah, so can a lobotomy.

Jack, you're a funny man.

Hmm.

And a really good writer.

You know, whenever
I tell people that I'm a writer,

They always think
it's so fascinating.

Off to the bullfights
every week.

I don't have the heart
to tell them that, uh,

It's usually pretty dull,

And, uh...

It's kind of
lonely, actually.

Well, it's, um, still early.

Would you like to come in
and have a nightcap?

Um... No.

I'm going to take a rain check
on that.

I, um...

I've got some stuff to do

Back at
the paper tonight,

But, um, thank you.

Thank you for the night.
Thank you.

Um...

Are we still on

For tomorrow?

Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Uh, okay, great.

I'll see you at the theatre
at 3:45, then.

3:45. Sounds great.

Jack, are you okay?

No, I'm fine.

I just, um...

I've got a lot of work stuff
going on in my mind.

It's...

It's nothing.

Good night.

Night.

Hey, what are you
doing here?

I'm on the schedule,
aren't I?

I thought you'd be seeing
your husband off.

Ex-husband, dad.

Wait, they're
pulling out today?

He's on the Reynolds,
isn't he?

Yeah. The Reynolds.

I hate it when the Navy
leaves town.

That's half my tips
right there.

You always know
just what to say,

Don't you, Bobby?

Hi, you've reached
Jack Griffith.

You know what to do.

Olivia?

The show's
about to start.

You wouldn't let me
pay for lunch,

So I thought
I'd bring some wine.

You're supposed to ask
permission to come aboard.

Yeah, right.

All right, here we go.

For you.

Thank you.

So where's Warren?

The city,

On business.

Don't you ever get lonely
out here all by yourself?

You know, it was weird
the other night,

And, I don't know,
just seeing you there.

You're the only reason
I joined that stupid committee.

Maybe if I'd known
you were going to be there

I wouldn't have been
thrown off, but--

Seth, no.

You invited me here
to see your boat, remember?

Your boyfriend's out of town,

And you come by
with a bottle of wine?

Now, did you dump him,

And I'm, like,
a rebound-type thing?

'cause that's cool,
I don't mind--

It's nice to see
that your ego hasn't changed.

When you dumped me, Justine?

You said you saw no future
with a dumb jock.

I didn't say that.

Oh, yeah, you did.

You know, if you marry him
for a year or two,

You're set for life.

Maybe I love him,
did you ever think of that?

You don't
love that guy, Justine.

Come on, you're just looking
for something safe,

Like you always were--

You want to live here
on this boat

With no responsibilities,

That's great. Now.

I'll check back in on you
in 20 years

And see how you're doin'.

Sometimes,
growing up means

Doing things that
you don't want to.

Yeah, like hooking up
with a rich guy.

God, you're still 17.

And you're 65.

Have fun with
your safe little life.

You know, come on by
if you need a little adventure.

Hmm, should make

A pretty good haul
tonight there.

Yeah...

Pay for about five minutes
with my lawyer.

Why don't you let me
help you out?

Really?
You would lend me money?

No.

I got a tip for you, though.

Fourth race tomorrow
at the track.

It's a sure thing.
You can't lose.

How much you want me
to put down?

Dad, turn it up.

Turn it up,
turn it up.

Tragedy tonight

Aboard recently dispatched
nuclear submarine

As an explosion rocked
the fully manned vessel.

According to Navy officials,

"the explosion
and consequent damage

Were limited to the forward
compartment spaces only.

The naval department
has not yet determined

The cause of the explosion.

No names of casualties
have been released.

Our sources confirm

That affected areas
include crew living,

Command and control spaces,
and the torpedo room.

I thought we were
going to lunch.

You know, honey...

Ever since I got back
from the city,

So I thought,
you know what,

"Let's buy her
a present."

You like it?

What's going on?

Honey, this is
your own gallery.

Hand-crafted jewelry.

I thought you'd bring on
a couple local artists

To help you out.

It's great foot traffic.

There's a workshop
in the back.

Bingo.

Whoa.

Warren, I can't--

Okay, it's
an investment, Justine.

That's all.

It's not a gift,
an investment.

Besides, come on,

Give yourself
some respect.

I think you could be
very successful

Which is why I thought,
in the first place,

To buy it.

Wait a minute, I...

What does this mean?

I mean, what are you
expecting here?

What strings
are attached?

There are no strings attached, I
promise.

Okay?

Unless, of course,
you want them.

Come on, I can
close it next week.

What do you say?

That's the biggest rock
I've ever seen.

What's going on?

Seth,
I didn't think you'd be here.

Can I see?

Wow.

I guess you showed me, huh?

Hello?

Okay.

Yeah, thank you.

Thank you.

He's alive.

Well, thank god.

Um, they said he was below deck
when it happened,

And they're going to
let me see him

As soon as they can.

He's going to be okay.

Good, good, good.

You're too young
to get married.

You were younger
than I am.

Then learn
from my mistakes.

I'm sorry,
you're just a kid, Justine,

You don't even know
what you want.

Warren is one of the most
interesting men in town.

He takes care of me.

He makes me feel safe.

You know
what I'm hearing here?

I'm hearing "security."

I'm not hearing "love."

Let's throw
everything else out--

The business, the money,
the fact that I'm leaving you,

And ask yourself,

And be honest...

Do you love him?

Honey, I want to
be happy for you.

Celebrate,
and open the champagne,

But I don't feel any love here.

Ian?

Ian, hi.

It's me.

Hey.

Hi.

I didn't think you'd come.

Well, of course, I'd come.
Why wouldn't I?

Olivia!

So sorry to keep you waiting.

Look at you, you look great.

You haven't changed a bit.

You've put on
a little weight.

Oh, thank you.

Good to see you're still honest.

I think you are
going to be

A great nominee.

But I didn't think I could
drag you out of that town.

Well, things change, Pete.

So they do.

Listen, I'm going to be
upfront with you.

Some of my advisors,

They were a little
surprised by my choice.

Yeah, a small town
in the middle of nowhere.

I think they were
expecting a nominee

With a little more
name recognition.

So why me?

You've had
a lot of decisions

Challenged
in higher courts,

And you've only been
overturned exactly once.

Do you know, if that was
a batting average,

You'd be worth
$70 million a year?

And the fact
that I'm a woman

Could help with
certain voters.

Can't hurt.

I do have one concern.

My decision
was totally legal.

There were certain...

Circumstances

That came
to my attention,

Nobody's questioning
the legality.

It's the headline.

Something like this

People see controversy,
whether it's there or not.

I wasn't happy
with that story either.

If we are going to close
this nomination,

We have to avoid anything

If the couple re-petitions,
I will grant the divorce.

I just felt...

Sometimes,

Especially in a small town,
where everyone knows each other,

I think it's important

To stay within the law,

But use an element
of common sense.

I just thought
it was the right thing to do.

Okay, I hear you.

I just don't want to see
any more stories like this.

Do we understand each other?

I stand by my decision...

Senator.

Hey, just stay
off the front page, okay?

Come on, I'm taking
you to dinner.

I want you to meet some
of my biggest donors.

In a small town,
you don't specialize.

That's the good part.

You not only get a broader
sense of the law,

But it's
never boring.

Much crime?

It may take place 80 miles away,
but it ends up in front of me.

What are your feelings

About the cathcart/
technet case?

I haven't heard both sides.

Well, you must
read the papers.

It'll be brought up next term.

Yes, I know.

And?

And what?

Well, what are your thoughts?

I thought this was a dinner,

Not a litmus test.

Are you avoiding
the question?

No, I'll tell you
straight out,

I'm not answering it.

I appreciate
you gentlemen

Supporting me,

But if you think
this a preview

Of coming attractions
regarding decisions,

You're mistaken.

Tom, back off.

No Judge is
going to comment

On something
like that.

At least
not an honest one.

Come on.

It's closed.

Please.
I'm a Senator.

The decisions
you make in here

Will become
a little piece of history.

Believe me, I've
thought about it.

You just hope you make
the right ones.

It's a little scary.

Oh, you'll do fine.

This way.

Your courtroom.

Thank you, fellows.

So, Troy.

What are those two feds
doing here in town?

What feds?

Those two that just
walked out of here.

What makes you think
they were feds?

They all go
to the same tailor.

Come on, Troy,

Give me something
here, okay?

Going to be about a guy
who builds amusing birdhouses.

What you're failing
to grasp here, Jack,

Is that people like to read
about birdhouses.

Yeah, this, uh... Guy

Spent a whole year

Building an exact replica
of Buckingham Palace.

Between you and me, though,

I really don't think
the birds care.

Well, I gotta go.

Talk to you later.

Yeah. Bye!

So I'll see you next week?

Hey.

You're late.

Meeting's over.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

I thought I ought to
blow this one off.

After the last one.

Look, I'm sorry.

I saw your ring, and...

I guess I just felt, uh...

I don't know
what I felt like, but...

When you came out
to the boat,

What you said,

Maybe I do need to
grow up a little.

I just...

Felt for a minute
maybe I had a second chance.

I shouldn't have said
what I did.

I hope you're happy.

Jack?

Sorry to bother you.

I don't mean to, uh, intrude,

But if you've got a minute,

I've, uh, got something here
I think you might want to see.

Warren's been
under surveillance.

Troy's been
working with

Some federal boys.

What are they looking into?

Financial stuff.

He just told me enough
to, um, you know,

Get me to shut up for a while.

Jack, this is evidence.

No. No, Olivia, it's not.

It was in the trash, so, uh,
they obviously didn't think

It was that important.

Look, maybe
I shouldn't have, um,

Brought this to you.

I just...

No, I'm glad you did.

Okay.

Would you like
a cup of coffee?

Yeah.

It's gorgeous back here.

It's my favorite place.

Hmm, yeah.

Look, I owe you
an explanation.

You don't
owe me anything.

Olivia, I know
that you're angry

About the other day, okay?

Do you know why?

Yeah, I think I've got
a pretty good idea, yeah.

I don't think you do.

If you had called

And said specifically
what was going on...

Why you had to cancel,

That's one thing, but...

You're evasive, Jack,

And I don't like that.

I'm a Judge.

People stand in front of me
and lie every day,

And I have to read
between the lines

And try to figure out
who I believe.

I don't have time to do that
on my day off.

Yeah, that's fair enough.

I'm an alcoholic.

The other day,

When I was supposed to meet you
at the play, I, uh...

I panicked.

Olivia, you're
the first woman

That I've dated sober.

And I swear to god,
I was in my car

On my way to meet you,
and, uh...

I just got very scared.

I didn't think I could do it
without a drink.

So I turned around,

And I spent
the afternoon

In my sponsor's living room,

Gulping down
copious amounts of coffee.

This is why I'm in Cedar Cove.

Back there in Philly,
I, uh...

I screwed up my job,

My marriage,

And my kids.

My son rarely
talks to me now,

And, quite frankly,
I can't blame him.

You see, this job...

Is a life preserver for me.

It's my last chance.

And, uh...

I know it.

I'm sorry.

Thank you for telling me.

Olivia, I have never
met anyone like you.

I wasn't sober enough
to remember it.

And look at you.

You're smart,

You're gorgeous,

You occasionally laugh
at my lame jokes.

Occasionally, yeah.

And I can't stop
thinking about you.

You know, I go away
for just a few days,

And all of a sudden,
you run into your old boyfriend.

An old friend.

And maybe if you made
a little bit more of an effort

To meet some of them--

Justine, save it.

Please, you never really
wanted me to go to this reunion

In the first place,
and you know it.

Warren, we're engaged now.

Don't you think
it's going to look a little--

I don't care
how it looks, Justine! No!

Warren...

It's always

Just the two of us.

Hmm.

I'm so isolated out here.

I mean, one night.

So I can watch you dance
with your fisherman friend?

You're a jerk.

Where are you going?

Justine!

You really think

You could leave all this?

It's not
going to be easy,

But I keep
reminding myself

That a federal Judge
can do a lot of good,

Change a lot of lives.

Ah...

And so, what,

You couldn't do that
from here in Cedar Cove?

You know, I hear

Half the little girls
in this town

Want to go to law school
because of you.

Yeah,
and that's what the world needs,

More lawyers.

Thank you.

Who's the little boy
here with Justine?

That's my son.

Jordan.

Justine had a twin brother.

He drowned when he was 13.

I am so sorry.

Justine saw it.

She's never gotten over it.

Stan and I were
angry, guilty.

The marriage broke up
shortly after that.

Do you think that maybe...

That had something to do with
your denial of that divorce?

Don't even go there.

I don't know,

This might not be
such a good idea.

Well, it's better
than the base.

Well, where am I
going to sleep?

Right there.

Where are you
going to sleep?

Same place.

Are you sure about that?

Yes, I am.

so...

Are you free
tomorrow night?

Turn around
and look at that, Jack.

I'm moving.

Yeah.

Jack...

I really like you.

I do.

But...

Let's not start something
we can't finish.

Well, you're the Judge.

Yeah.

Ian?

Hey.

Uh, can I get a ride
to the base?

Why, did they
call you back again?

No. No...

I just think I'd better leave.

No. Why?

That's crazy.
You're going to stay here.

I'm going to take care of you.

Why?

Because you're my husband.

Well, not for long.

I mean, what are we doing here?

You know, it's just like
we're playing house

Or something.

I mean, what's the big change?

I was scared.

I don't know,
I thought you were dead.

And just...

The thought
of losing you, and...

I'm still not over
losing her yet.

Yeah, neither am I.

I just-- you know, I just think
it's better if I go.

Please don't go. Please.

Look at me.

Please...

Stay with me.

Don't leave.

Please?

Okay.

Hey.

I hope you don't mind.

No, no, of course not.

Hmm, fight
with Warren?

Kind of.

It's been a little
tough lately.

Sorry.

No, it's okay.

I've just been thinking
about Jordan a lot lately.

With you leaving and...

Not having
this house anymore.

Mom, I'm just...

I'm afraid
I'm going to forget him.

Oh...

How he laughed
and how he...

But when I come
in this house,

It just all comes back.

Like he was still here.

It's so stupid.

No, it's not.

It's not stupid.

I still go sit
in his room all the time.

His bike is still
in the garage.

I can't bring myself
to give it away.

I know this whole Judge thing
means a lot to you,

And I don't mean
to guilt trip you.

It's just...

It's going to feel so weird
without you around.

I mean, I know
dad tries, but...

Come on, it's always
just been us.

Hey...

There's some ice cream
in the freezer.

I already had mine.

You did not!

No!

It's okay,
I left you some.

Olivia, hi.

I'll get straight
to the point.

I want you to break off
the engagement.

You know, Olivia...

Why are you doing this?

I thought we had reached
some sort of understanding here.

Okay, look,

But I have every intention
of making your daughter happy.

Do you think...
These would make her happy?

One of your
business trips.

Glad to know you weren't lonely.

Where did you get those?

What matters
is that I have them.

Now, I haven't shown Justine,
but I will if I have to.

Break it off, and I won't.

Well, maybe
I'll take that chance.

Your reputation
means too much to you.

Justine would
never tolerate

This behavior.

Do you really want
everyone in this town knowing

You got dumped?

You know, Olivia,

I love your daughter very much,

No matter what you think.

You don't love her.

You're not capable of love.

Okay.

You know, two of us
can play at this game.

You know,
you're not really acting

Very ethical right now,
your honor.

I'm a mother first.

You're not going to hurt
my daughter.

Be smart.

Break it off.

Yes, come in.

Hey, uh, Judge,

Can we talk to you
for a sec?

You really should have
counsel present.

Well, actually, um,

We'd like to drop
our, uh...

Petition.

We figured

Maybe if we just
spoke to you about it...

Then we could save
some legal fees.

Consider it dropped.

Um, these are
for you.

This isn't a bribe, is it?

No, it's...

More of a
thank you, I guess.

Yeah, 'cause there's
something else

We want to
talk to you about.

See, when we got married,
I was pregnant--

And I was shipping out--

And, well,

The whole thing took,
like, a minute.

I was wearing jeans.

Yeah, it wasn't
real romantic.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you
doing here?

Oh, just enjoying
a little peace and quiet.

That's all.

Justine called from here.

She wanted me
to come pick her up.

You haven't seen her, have you?

Congratulations!

There you go,

One OJ, straight up.

Thanks, Moon.

You must be
the new guy.

That's right, I am.

We haven't met.

I'm Wally Dorfman.

Nice to finally meet you.

So, Wally, have you caught
anything good lately?

Got a good stop sign
the other day.

Wally, what are you using
for bait?

Hey, listen up,
everybody,

The Mayor has
an announcement to make.

Everybody, could I have
your attention?

Olivia...

You're probably going to
be too busy to miss us,

But we are all really
going to miss you.

So we figured

You could take us with you.

Thank you so much.

I have a little
going-away present for you.

I thought you might
want to see this

Before it runs
in the paper tomorrow,

Knowing what
a stickler you are

For things being
written about you.

Thank you.

"We all dream
of making it big someday...

"and for Olivia Lockhart,

"being appointed
to a federal judgeship

"is like being called up
to the major leagues,

"more prestige, better money,
a bigger audience.

"she'll have a chance
to make decisions

"that will be studied
in law books

"for years to come.

"very few things in life,
however, come without a price,

"and she'll be paying
a steep one.

"she has to leave us.

"there will be a lot of
sad people here in Cedar Cove

"on the day she does.

"her family, her friends,

"young girls who looked
up to her as a role model.

"Olivia Lockhart has touched
a lot of lives

"here in Cedar Cove,

"probably more
than she realizes.

"that's tough to do
in a big city,

"so I can't help but think
she'll be a little sad, too.

"the city has lots to offer,

"but there's one thing
she won't have there,

"her memories,

"because they're right here,

In Cedar Cove."

Hi.

Hey, you.

Am I interrupting anything?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I'm doing an in-depth article

On the Rotary Club
pancake breakfast.

I smell Pulitzer.

You can't print it.

Come on, Olivia.

Do you know how hard that was

For me to write that?

You can't print it
because I'm not going.

I turned it down.

You're kidding.

Nope.

But why?
Why would you do that?

Lot of reasons, I guess.

Maybe I'm afraid
of being homesick.

Olivia...

This is a huge
opportunity

For you.

I know.

Maybe I'm crazy.

I have wanted something
like this my whole life,

And now...

It doesn't seem that important.

Well...

You know, maybe it isn't
so crazy after all.

"there are more tears shed
for answered prayers

Than unanswered."

Saint Theresa.

What?

You just quoted a Saint?

Yeah, well, I read it
in a fortune cookie.

Okay, I, um...

I want to
ask you something.

Ask away.

Okay.

Um...

Do you really think about me
all the time?

Well...

Not if there's
a really good game on,

'cause that would, you know--

Of course I do.

You know I do.

Oh, wow.

I really like that.

Do you think we could do
the dating thing again?

Absolutely.

Hey.

Hmm?

Do you own a suit?

We are gathered here today

To celebrate the reunion

Of Ian and Cecilia.

But first, on a personal note,
I would like to say

I am very, very happy

To be here today.

Ian, would you like to share
your vows with us?

Cecilia, for
the rest of my life...
