Previously on When Calls the Heart...

You must have some
idea of your affections

for Constable Grant and my son.

As you suggested, shall
we get back to work?

In light of the loss of a Mountie's life

we are opening another internal inquiry.

Your career as a Mountie is at stake.

You say that you value me as a doctor.

Yes.

I want to be treated like you mean it.

I can only tell you
what I told your mother.

Love has to be fought for.

Maybe she needed to be
the one to reach out first.

What would you know about it?

Sorry.

I must have fallen asleep.

You're up early.

Up late.

I haven't been to bed.

Oh?

I was in my office
robbing Peter to pay Paul.

I managed to save the oil derrick

before it sustained to
much damage from the fire.

Well, luckily no one was badly injured.

Thankfully.

A miracle.

I could say you're up early, though.

Uh, a new family is moving into Henry's.

Everyone's bringing pies and casseroles

- so I thought I'd bring...
- Food for the soul.

I better get going if I wanna
make it back in time for school.

Allow me.

Thank you.

Here.

What do you think that's about?

Bill said the Mounties are looking into

the prisoner transport
shooting from last fall.

I was under the impression
Nathan had been exonerated.

Evidently not entirely.

Hello.

Good morning.

Mr. Canfield?

Oh, yeah. Joseph.

Oh. I'm Elizabeth Thornton.

I'm the school teacher of Hope Valley.

- Nice to meet you.
- And you.

I'm told you have two children?

I do. Cooper, he's 10,
and Angela who's 14.

Wonderful.

Well, I thought I'd drop
off some books for them.

Oh, that's awfully kind of you.

Excuse me.

Angela! Coop!

I see you're settling in and
making yourself feel at home.

I'm trying.

We just got back with our
last load from Jameson.

Joseph?

Honey, come meet Mrs. Thornton.

She's gonna be Coop's new teacher.

Joseph, I love these new steps.

It's a pleasure to
meet you, Mrs. Thornton.

Elizabeth.

Winifred.

Most folks call me Minnie.

She brought the children new books.

Wonderful.

When Cooper sits still long
enough he loves to read.

And what about Angela?

I school Angela myself at home.

Mama?

Angela, watch yourself.

Daddy put in some new steps.

Coop, come help your sister.

And come meet Mrs. Thornton.

She's the school teacher
here in Hope Valley.

Step.

Step. Step.

Last step.

Cooper, all of the children are
really looking forward to meeting you,

but until then I thought
you would enjoy this book.

"The Call of the Wild."

It's a wonderful adventure.

I like adventures.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

And Angela, I'm not
sure if you're familiar

with this series of books,
Anne of Green Gables?

Yes, my mother and father
have read two of them to me.

Terrific.

Well, this one's fairly new.

It's called Anne of the Island.

- Thank you.
- Mmm-hmm.

Elizabeth, will you stay
and join us for breakfast?

I'm afraid school will be starting soon.

Perhaps another time.

Of course.

It was very thoughtful of
you to come up to welcome us.

Please do come back again.

I'd like that.

- And Angela, you are welcome at school any...
- Thank you, Mrs. Thornton.

Well, I wouldn't want to be late.

If you'll excuse me.

Of course.

- Bye.
- Bye.

- Thank you, Mrs. Thornton.
- My pleasure.

Susannah! Hey, sis!

Oh, Susannah! Rachel!

- Hello!
- There you are.

I'm sorry we weren't
here to meet your train.

You're here now. That's what counts.

So, how was the trip?

That was my first time on a train.

Was it exciting?

Absolutely divine, Aunt Rosemary.

We ate in the dining
car with real crystal.

Oh, très elegant.

Mais oui.

Oh, tu apprends le français.

Are these all your bags?

We're only here for three days.

We are going to have so much fun!

Shall we?

Judge Avery, can you described
the events of October 23rd?

Constable Grant and I were on
a prisoner transfer to Buxton

when we were ambushed
by the prisoner's sister.

And then what happened?

Constable Grant then approached
the prisoner's sister,

Jenny O'Rourke.

And then?

I looked on with the other
Mounties as Constable Grant

tried persuading Miss
O'Rourke to put down her rifle.

Continue please.

Constable Grant was about to
have the situation resolved

in a peaceful manner
when Constable Novak

reached for his own rifle.

That's when the prisoner shouted
out alerting Miss O'Rourke.

She then fired, killing Constable Novak.

So you saw Jenny O'Rourke
discharge her weapon?

No.

Constable Novak reaching for his weapon

drew my attention away
from Miss O'Rourke.

So you don't know how her
rifle came to be discharged.

It could have resulted from
Constable Grant's actions.

Thank you, Judge Avery.

Have you seen my stethoscope anywhere?

Thank you. What?

Oh.

I guess I'm just a little nervous.

You have no reason to be.

Thank you.

Thank you for believing in me.

I hope that's reciprocal.

It is.

You and I are gonna figure things out.

Carson, right now it feels like

we either have to stop working together

or stop seeing each other,

and I don't like either choice.

How about this Sunday

we go for a nice, long ride
in the country and we talk?

I'll pack a picnic.

I better be going.

I am so excited for you, getting
to do such a modern surgery.

I know.

Doctor Rizzoli is a pioneer

and I am honoured just
to be asked to assist him.

I wish I could see for myself.

Well, why don't you come along?

We could ask Molly to cancel
the appointments today.

No, Carson, we can't
do that to our patients.

But I am tempted.

Mostly to spend time with you.

Oh, my goodness! I'm so sorry.

No, Molly.

Wait, wait. Don't go away.
I was actually just leaving.

See you later, tomorrow.

Well, it looks like you
two are working things out.

Honestly, Molly, it seems
to change minute to minute.

Faith, if you have a
moment I need some advice.

Right over there.

It sure is a lot of
fuss over a barber shop.

Jesse.

I'm in the dog house

for riding Lee's motorcycle
out to Albert Falls.

Uh, Fiona, how's this?

Perfect. Thanks.

Thank you.

Don't I even get a kiss?

You're kidding.

I love you.

- Clara.
- I know,

buying Lee's motorcycle without
talking to me isn't funny,

so I shouldn't be laughing.

But...

Well, he's learning his lesson.

Mmm-hmm.

Well, here we are, Rachel.

Welcome to Hope Valley.

It must seems so small and quiet
compared to the City of Bellingham.

I think it's romantic.

Like something out of the wild west

with cowboys and gunslingers.

We're a little short on gunslingers.

A little short on cowboys too, actually.

That's all right.

Oh, that's Jesse Flynn.

He works for Uncle Lee.

Mmm-hmm.

Eyes forward, please.

All right, everyone. Time for recess.

Yay!

Allie?

Don't you want to go outside?

I'm not in the mood.

What is it?

I'm worried about my uncle.

Oh, Allie.

Your uncle is one of the
finest Mounties I've ever known.

It's hard to imagine his
conduct would be found

to be anything but impeccable.

That means he's a very good
man and he did everything right.

People said Uncle Nathan did
everything right the last time.

The last time?

When he got in so much
trouble up at Fort Clay?

When were you at Fort Clay?

Three years ago.

Uncle Nathan got suspended.

After that he asked for a transfer.

That's how we wound up in Fort
Simpson before coming here.

Allie, do you know why
your uncle got suspended?

All I know is that he was a
lot more fun before it happened.

Why don't you run outside and play?

All right.

That could help consolidate
transportation costs.

You'll save yourself a lot of
money in the long run, I'm sure.

- That sounds good.
- Great.

I see you two have met.

May I borrow you for a moment?

Oh, of course.

Thank you again.

Think nothing of it.

Sorry.

I just wanted to make sure
that you and your wife know

that Angela is equally as
welcome in my classroom as Cooper.

Oh, we know that. We do.

And I know I'm not qualified
to teach a blind student yet,

but I do intend to learn as
soon as the school year is over.

I appreciate that.

I was sort of hoping Minnie
might be willing to help me.

Well, Minnie's very
protective of Angela.

I understand.

I'm not sure that you do
and I wouldn't expect you to.

Minnie would prefer to keep
schooling Angela at home, herself.

But I will be by with
Cooper in the morning.

You be ready for my son, now.

I promise you, that
boy can wear you out.

I'll see you soon.

Take care.

Constable Grant,

what is the first objective
in any given conflict?

The protection and preservation of life.

And yet Constable Novak lost his life

during the conflict in question.

Yeah. I think that's been established.

This isn't the first
time you've acted rashly,

is that correct?

Objection!

Judge Avery, you know that
this is not a court of law.

I caution you against
trying to represent

Constable Grant as his attorney.

Well, then I'd like to ask that
the Superintendent's questions

be limited to the scope of
the incident in question.

Superintendent.

Constable Grant, were you
ever stationed at Fort Clay?

Yes, I was stationed at Fort Clay
under your direct command, sir.

And under my command
there was an incident...

Objection!

Bill!

If you continue I'm gonna
ask you to leave the room.

My office.

And I'll ask again that the
superintendent's questions

be limited to the scope of
the incident in question!

May I suggest a short recess?

That's a good idea.

We're in recess until further notice.

Thank you for inviting me,

although it does seem early to eat.

Susannah likes to eat early.

She thinks it aids in her digestion.

I had nearly forgotten
how inflexible she can be.

Ugh, and joyless.

And strict.

She is constantly raining
on Rachel's parade.

All right, since I'm already
being somewhat fault-finding...

Somewhat.

Elizabeth, I'm sorry.
You are quite sullen.

Is it Nathan's inquiry?

That and something Allie told me.

Nathan once received a suspension-

Nathan Grant?

No, she must be mistaken.

While he was stationed at
Fort Clay three years ago.

When Jack was there?

Mmm-hmm.

Why wouldn't Nathan tell me?

He knows Jack died at Fort Clay.

Perhaps he thought the
reminder would be too painful.

Still, I can't help but wonder

if there isn't something
else he hasn't told me.

Hey, slowpokes!

Come on, let's go.

It was Hargraves' first command.

He assigned me to track
some cattle rustlers.

I was to locate them
and then report back.

When I saw them headed for the
border I moved in on my own.

You disobeyed orders.

I...

Yeah.

Hargraves had me officially reprimanded.

Never mind that I actually made
those arrests, though, myself.

You disobeyed orders.

Still, it doesn't sound like
the Andrew Hargraves I've known.

What, before he was promoted?

He wants your badge, you know.

He can have it.

Well, talking like that
doesn't do any good.

You must know that Fort Clay was
Jack Thornton's last assignment.

I don't suppose you and he ever met.

No, I never had the honour.

Any chance you told Elizabeth
you were at Fort Clay?

No.

I haven't.

Well, we reconvene early tomorrow.

My suggestion is you get some sleep

and be ready to come out swinging.

And this time take my advice.

Well, thank you, Lucas,
for squeezing us in.

I appreciate that.

The place is empty, Lee.
Nobody eats this early.

Tell me about it.

Thank you.

Pardonne moi.

Do not encourage them to order
the tenderloin with mushroom sauce.

It is off the menu.

It's one of our most popular items.

The mushrooms, there are no more.

I ordered them on Monday.

I beg to differ.

Gustav, that's my fault.

You have been spending a lot of time

worrying about your oil business.

When a man tries wearing two hats

one is only sure to fall off.

Tenderloin with mushroom sauce.

Oh my, doesn't that sound delish?

Proper English please, Rachel.

There's a teacher present.

Oh, language is a living thing.

But the tenderloin is delish.

Yeah, Rosemary and I get
the tenderloin all the time

and it is delish... ious.

Very, very delicious.

But no more delicious than
some of our other items.

Why don't I give you some
time to look over the menu?

Thank you, Lucas.

So, Rachel, now that
you've graduated high school

what are your plans?

Well, my mother and father

want me to work in the furniture store,

but Aunt Rosemary's
stories about Broadway

have me thinking about...

About how any other path
would be much more interesting.

The stage is... it's old hat.

Yeah.

Movies are what actually get
all the attention nowadays.

Well, perhaps I should
consider going to Hollywood.

No, uh, no. No, no.

I... have heard terrible
stories about Hollywood.

- Just terrible.
- Terrible.

- Awful.
- Awful.

But you said Hollywood was
the most glamorous place

you had ever seen.

When did you tell her that?

When she and Uncle Lee visited last.

I must have missed that conversation.

How are we doing?

Jesse, you have to try this.

You didn't want ice cream?

Ah, I'd only spoil my dinner.

I forgot my wallet at home.

I didn't wanna ask you for money.

Jesse, I just want us to talk it
over before we make a purchase.

Even an ice cream cone?

Of course not, loopy.

We'll just have to share

while we tighten our belts for a while.

But Lee was nice enough
not to hold me to the deal.

We still had to pay for the repairs

that got you back from Albert Falls.

Mmm.

I guess I could get used to this.

Mmm, it is pretty good.

Are you ok?

Are you gonna have to go to jail?

- Why would you say that?
- Just tell me the truth.

Allie, I'm not gonna have to go to jail.

Whatever happens in there,

I'm always gonna be there for you, ok?

I promise.

Don't you dare.

Not unless you wanna risk
wearing this thing again.

I was just taking it to the mill.

The mill is that way.

Right.

But I I was gonna go
the long way through town

because I know you hate
having this thing around.

I don't use the word "hate",
but yes, you are right.

I would like to be rid of that thing.

Great. Tell my sister that I'm
gonna push it to the mill, ok?

No, not right now.

She wants to spend the day with you.

I know.

But she wants something. I can feel it.

Perhaps when you are alone

you can ask her why she is
so stringent with Rachel.

Tread carefully, Rosie.

I love my sister, but
I know from experience

that there is a lot
more peace and harmony

when she gets her way.

She is our niece.

Isn't it our responsibility
to help her thrive?

- No.
- Wha...

No. It's not.

All right, fine.

At least I get to enjoy some
girl time alone with Rachel

today at the dress shop.

Have we kept you waiting?

- Uh, no.
- No, not at all.

Ready to sell some dresses?

- Mmm-hmm.
- All right.

Oh, ow.

Oh, I'm so excited.

Goodbye, mother.

Lee, you do think she'll be all
right with Rosemary, don't you?

Before we get started I
would like you all to meet

a brand new classmate.

This is Cooper Canfield.

Cooper and his sister, Angela,
just moved here to Hope Valley.

Cooper, would you like to tell
us a little bit about yourself?

My name's Cooper, but
you can call me Coop.

My dad's a mechanic and a driver.

My mom, she can do just about anything.

My sister Angela plays
the piano like an angel.

Joseph.

Let's go before he sees you.

Do you wanna have a look?

I wanna get home.

There's still a lot of unpacking to do.

Cooper's telling them about me.

He's saying he likes
the way I play the piano.

Come on, we have your studies.

We have a step here, now. Step.

Mrs. Thornton seems very nice.

Don't start with me, Joseph.

Last step.

She does seem nice, Mama.

I hear you.

Joseph, you need to find someone
to help you with that piano

to lift it off the wagon.

You don't want it to get rained on.

Can we talk about this?

Baby, what's to say that
hasn't been said already?

I'd really like to spend time
with children my age, mama.

You know, life isn't
always about what we want.

Sometimes it's about what's best.

What we need.

She needs to have another chance
to meet children her own age.

So she can be treated like before?

I wouldn't have wanted us to move here

if I didn't believe that Hope
Valley was gonna be different.

Please?

I'll think about it.

Thank you, mama.

I said I'll think about it.

Thank you.

Is it possible that you
escalated the situation

which resulted in
Constable Novak's death?

I suppose anything's possible.

And if you had complied
with the demands of the woman

holding you at gun point, if
you had released her brother,

what might have happened?

We might have tracked them down later.

And no one else would have been killed!

Or, if released,

the prisoner and his sister
might have killed us all.

This darn thing.

It's not an objection.

Just you had to all be
looking my way, so... continue.

Minnie.

How do you like your new door?

It's beautiful.

I'll build you some shelves, too.

That would be lovely.

It already feels like home, doesn't it?

I really hope things
will be different here.

You know I do.

I know.

- Angela?
- Woah, woah, woah.

Let her be.

She's all right.

Your hair with this colour is divine.

It's never been my favourite.

If I might, I agree with Rosemary.

It's what all the girls are
wearing in the fashion magazines.

Well, I can hardly be
referred to as a girl,

but thank you, Rachel.

I believe what she meant is
that the design is very youthful.

Oh.

It accentuates the elegant
line of your neck beautifully.

Oh.

I just I can't decide.

If I may.

I know exactly what it needs.

Oh.

Oh, that's lovely.

Oh.

Goodness.

Rachel, that quite literally

pulls the entire ensemble together.

And it sets off your eyes.

Oh.

In confidence, it's someone
else's eye I'm trying to catch.

- Oh.
- And you will, Molly.

You asked for my advice.

Oh...

You're right. I'll take it.

Oh, wonderful!

- I'll write it up.
- Great.

Thank you.

Molly.

You look stunning.

Oh, thank you.

Rachel, you know, if you're
going to work in ladies fashion

you really should dress the part.

I've been begging mother
for something more modern.

Why don't you look around the shop,

try something on?

Really?

Yeah, absolutely. Anything you like.

I appreciate the ride, Jesse.

Yeah, of course.

I was coming out here anyway
to help Joseph move his piano.

Does school get out early every day?

Not even most days.

That's a crying shame.

Woah.

Do you hear that?

That's just Angela.

It's beautiful.

- Hi, Mama.
- Hi, baby.

Come on.

You saw her up on that wagon.

Playing so beautifully.

It's how Angela climbed up
there to get to that piano

and how Joseph was
content just to watch her.

He and I feel very differently

when it comes to how to raise her.

Doesn't her desire to play
tell you something about

how eager she is to learn?

Isn't that what's important?

What's important is that
Angela is where she's encouraged

and safe, and that's
here with me, Elizabeth.

I only want to help.

I appreciate that. I do.

But trust me when I say
you don't understand.

I've known cruelty, but I never knew

how cruel people could
be until we had Angela.

That kind of thing won't
happen in my classroom.

I won't allow it.

And if you can find your way to trust me

I promise you I will never
stop trying to understand

how difficult this must be for Angela.

For you.

I will never stop trying to help.

It's nice to be home.

After a long day spent hearing
about first growth pines?

It was interesting.

Uh-huh, sure.

Rosie, Rach, we're back!

I wonder where they could be.

Bum-ba-da-da!

Presenting Miss Rachel Thom!

Oh-ho-ho!

Wow.

Don't you adore these?

They were hanging in
the dress shop window

and Aunt Rosemary said I could
try on anything in the store.

Where is your dress?

Oh, it's right here.

- Go upstairs and change.
- Susannah.

And wash your face.

I... I thought I looked... good.

Your daughter is a natural

when it comes to working
in women's fashion.

- Her sense of style...
- Rachel is going to work in our store.

Sus, I know you're upset

but you cannot talk
to Rosemary like that.

- Lee, it's all right.
- No, it's not all right.

- Of course, take her side.
- Nobody needs to take anybody's side.

She's my wife.

And I am your sister!

Excuse me.

I'm going to go for a walk.

That's it?

You end a good man's career
with the stroke of a pen?

I think you know me better than that.

I'm not sure I do.

Not anymore.

I'm aware of what happened at Fort Clay.

Now, be honest.

This is personal.

This inquiry is about
learning to do our jobs better,

and it is clear that
Constable Grant himself

questions his actions.

That's because Nathan's the
kind of man who always wonders

whether he might have done better.

I am willing to bet that
Grant didn't present you

- with the full story about Fort Clay.
- Perhaps.

But one thing that needs
no further explanation

is that this is about bad blood.

Do the right thing.

Good evening, Bill.

Molly.

Ned. Excuse me.

You look beautiful.

He didn't give me a second look.

Will you still join us for dinner?

Of course.

I'm hungry and I do look beautiful.

Besides, when it comes to Bill

I realize now it's all
about the long game.

I apologize for getting upset with you.

What I said was... uncalled for.

You're right.

It was.

Would you forgive me?

Of course I forgive you.

But I just...

Rosemary, I'm sorry.

I'm very sorry for how I spoke to you.

Thank you, Susannah.

Would you sit?

There's something I'd like to ask.

I knew it.

- Lee?
- Hmm? Nothing.

You see how different
we are, Rachel and I.

Goodness, Rachel is more like
Rosemary than she is like me,

don't you think, Lee?

- Uh...
- You have such a wonderful life here.

In Bellingham with the
factories and canneries and...

well, it's become no
place to raise a child,

and while I understand
Rachel isn't a child anymore,

she still needs guidance.

Fostering.

Fostering?

Well, not fostering per say, but...

- May Rachel come live with you?
- Wha... ?

- Yes.
- Huh?

We'd be delighted.

You don't think I'm
being a terrible mother?

Rachel is trying to
spread her wings, Susannah.

Don't you remember what that first

sense of freedom and
adventure felt like?

No.

Well, when you were her age

you were at home taking
care of our dad, so...

Of course.

If this is something
Rachel would like to do

then we would, too.

Right?

Um... yes.

Uh, we'd be delighted.

Allie?

Allie?

Allie!

She didn't want me to tell you.

Tell me what?

She's going to see her uncle.

I guess that means you
want me to be in charge.

Yes, I'll be back as soon as I can.

Always the best choice for the job.

Allie, it's time for school.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Thornton.

I'd like you to listen to me.

My uncle needs me.

I'm not gonna let him
fight them all by himself.

Before we hear the
superintendent's recommendation,

Constable Grant, is there
anything you would like to say?

I took a risk during
the prisoner transfer

in which Constable Novak
regrettably lost his life.

However, it was a risk I
deemed necessary at the time.

Having not done so I believe would
have caused other lives to be lost.

I am saddened for Mrs. Novak
as well as the other brave women

who have lost good men
in the line of duty.

While I can't bring these men back,

I can honour them,

their wives and their family

by continuing to serve
in an honourable fashion.

Thank you.

We will now hear the
superintendent's recommendation.

Uncle Nathan!

- Allie!
- Little girl.

My uncle didn't do anything wrong.

You have to stop what you're doing.

You don't understand.

You don't.

My uncle is one of the finest Mounties.

He's honest and brave
and... and impeccable.

Just ask Mrs. Thornton.

My uncle is more like my
father, and he's all I have.

Please.

Come on.

Superintendent Hargraves?

I would like to...

Gentlemen, it is my
recommendation to this council

that no further action
be taken in this matter.

So say we all?

So say we all.

This matter is concluded.

When you came home from the
dress shop the other day,

I... I hadn't seen you smile like that

since you were a little girl.

I'm sorry I haven't been able to
give you that kind of happiness.

Oh, mother.

I'm going to miss you.

I'm gonna miss you, too.

Everything's gonna be just fine.

Oh, yeah.

What could possibly go wrong?

- All right.
- Bye Susannah.

Hello.

- Oh, my gosh, you're early!
- I caught a stage.

I'm so glad to see you.

Me too.

Did you really miss me?

Last night felt like another year.

I brought you something.

It's not the most
romantic of gifts but...

Carson, you could not
have gotten me a more

romantic or better gift.

Something happening at the infirmary?

Carson just got back.

Ah.

You need your own office.

Or a revolving door.

Oh, you know, I have
to say again last night

oh, you looked just beautiful.

- Oh... I did, didn't I?
- Mmm-hmm.

Thank you.

Molly, Florence.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Molly, that was some dress.

$23 well spent.

I was just coming to see
you! Jinx, buy me a soda!

My new curtains?

- You like them?
- Oh, I adore them.

- You made them so fast.
- Ah, business has been quiet.

Hmm. Gee, that's too bad.

Especially since Jesse and I

have been dreaming about
building a house someday.

I need to work.

Listen, I've been wanting
to go home to see my family

and if I don't have to close
down the shop while I'm gone

I could make it worth both our while.

What'd you have in mind?

Hmm...

Have you ever cut Jesse's hair?

I have.

I thought I'd take my own advice
and be the first to reach out.

Serendipitous.

I was just trying to find you.

I want to apologize for
not being more forthright.

In trying to honour your mother's wishes

I hurt you and I never meant to do that.

Thank you.

That doesn't give me any right

to have spoken to you
the way that I did,

and I... I should not
have questioned or doubted

what you know about love.

I'm sorry.

I don't know whether you
want anything to do with me

but I thought you should know

I told Nathan that I can't
give him what he wants.

That I won't be seeing him anymore.

What could that mean for us?

I guess we'll just have to see.

Lucas! Did you order the mushrooms?

Sorry, Gustav. What?

The mushrooms.

I'll go to the mercantile.
Ned might have some.

Excuse me.

Dois-je tout faire ?

I knew they'd reach the right decision.

And I'm thankful.

Well, you had more
confidence than I did.

Nathan, why didn't you mention to me

that you were stationed at Fort Clay?

Allie told me.

I meant to.

So much time passed...
I didn't know how.

Did you ever meet Jack?

No.

I thought you might like to take
a brisk morning ride, with me.

- Dottie's selling the dress shop.
- Oh.

Does this mean I'm going to have
to leave and go back to Bellingham?

She's lived such a
sheltered life until now.

Isn't Rachel with you?

I thought she was with you.

Would you care to join me
for dinner tomorrow night?

Tonight should be about us.

I got your note.
What's... what the matter?
