Oh, Jake, finally.

Oh, Eileen, hello.

I thought you were my brother.

Is Jake making you do
all the work again?

Oh, no.

Jake has been banned from
the kitchen since junior high

when he almost burned it down
making gumdrops.

He enjoys the operational side,

you can't over boil numbers.

No, you can't.

I'll have my usual.

Okay, three mint melt-aways.

Oh! And here
is a salted coconut caramel

buttercream for you to try.

Ooh, you are a dear.

You're gonna like that.

Mm.

Oh, I also need to pre-order

two boxes of toffee
for my grandson.

Okay, two boxes, you got it.

When does Megan get home?

Oh, I was hoping
for Winterfest,

but she's studying in Luxembourg
this semester,

so probably not till summer.

What a smart world traveller
you've raised.

She didn't get it from me,
I am such a home body.

See you next week.

Oh, don't forget
your chocolate.

Oh, thanks.

You're late.

Sorry, Ma'am.

- Come on.
- Sorry.

I know, I know, I'm late
getting these to you,

but I was talking to Ophelia--

Oh, it's okay.
I'm just glad you're here.

I mean we have so much to do
before Winterfest and I...

Jake, are you alright?

Oh, great, yeah but um...

But what?

Hey, uh... you free
for dinner tonight?

Should I be worried?

No, not really.

That's not reassuring.

How about 7:30?

Kerrie, Jake, hello, hello.

- How is everything?
- Hi.

Oh, it is delicious as usual.

- Thank you, Adam.
- You outdid yourself

- with the crab cakes.
- I'm glad you like it.

I still need to come by

and place my candy order
for Winterfest.

Is Alexandra working this week?

I believe she is.

Great.

- Enjoy your meals.
- Thank you.

So not that I don't enjoy
being treated to dinner

by my big brother,
but can you please tell me

what's going on right now?

Okay, so...

Ophelia got offered
her dream job

teaching English literature
in London.

She's beyond ecstatic,

I couldn't be happier for her.

Jake, that's fantastic.

You are such a supportive husband.

It's too bad Ophelia couldn't be
with us tonight to celebrate.

And how perfect that London

is less than a 30-minute
drive from here.

Not London, Ohio.

London, England.

Silchester University.

She accepted a job in England?

One of their professors
left unexpectedly,

and so Ophelia flew out early
this morning.

She really wanted
to tell you herself,

but there wasn't any time.

Okay, well...
What about the store?

I can't run it alone.

Especially with Winterfest
coming up.

There aren't enough hours
in the day

for me to do
everything myself.

That's what I wanted
to talk to you about.

I've been thinking about
long-term solutions,

and I think the best one
might be for me to sell

my half of the business.

I'm sorry, I know how you feel
about change

and this is a lot of news
all at once,

but in a major
stroke of luck for both of us,

there's an interested buyer
who we both already know.

Who?

Brooks McLead.

Wait, what?

He's a financial genius

and extremely successful entrepreneur.

It's a gift that he wants
to buy into our family shop.

No. Not happening.

Why not?

Because I remember

what he was like in high school,
that's why not.

Kerrie, that was
a long time ago.

Look, I'm gonna be in the UK
for the next five years and--

Five years?

Gosh, Jake, I'm... I'm really
gonna miss you.

So come with us.
We'd love to have you.

I mean you've lived
your entire life in Bedford.

We could sell the shop.

Every memory I have
of Mom and Dad

and Nanny and Pop
centre around the shop.

Mom and Nanny taught me how
to pour the candy moulds.

You painted the sign
outside with Pop.

It's our family legacy.

It's our history.

This is my home, Jake.

Listen, I know that Brooks

wasn't your favourite person
back then.

That's an understatement.

But he's incredibly
competent, smart, trustworthy,

and his businesses always
double or triple their profits.

I just want you to have a nice
nest egg to retire on one day.

I can't believe I'm going
to say this but...

Okay, you can sell your half
of the store to Brooks McLead.

You won't regret this.

How are you settling in?

Ah, better than
the last place.

Why can't your next venture
be in Hawaii or Florida, yeah?

You can move us there.

Brooks, what ever happened
to that job

in Silicon Valley? Check.

Turned it down.

After everything that happened
in New York I thought, yeah,

just... I just wanted
to have a quieter life.

The uh, Bay Area retirement
community they...

they had ocean views.

And they offer surfing excursions.

There's just no comparison.

Sorry, Dad.

Listen, you know you can always
move in with me if you'd like.

You don't have to live here.

Oh, does your house
have luxurious amenities,

decedent dining,
daily activities,

an organized
social events calendar?

That's a really good point,
I should move in here instead.

Why, to cramp my style?

I don't think so.

That's it, check.

You know I'm just hoping
that one day

you'll just settle
down permanently.

Look, I'm not gonna be around
forever to take care of you.

Tried it, Dad, didn't work.

Sierra wasn't
the right one for you.

You could've let me
know that earlier.

Would've saved me
a lot of grief.

You wouldn't have listened,
you're too stubborn.

You always try to learn it
the hard way.

Thanks, Dad.

Checkmate.

I'm, I'm...

- Rematch?
- No, no, I got to go.

I gotta go sign papers
with the lawyer and Jake.

Rain check?

Yeah.

I love you, Dad.

I love you too, Son.

I can't believe
Jake and Ophelia

are moving to England.

Oh, I know and the timing

couldn't be worst
with Winterfest coming up.

I haven't even told Megan,
I don't want her to worry.

I just want her to enjoy
her semester abroad.

You're such a good mom.

Thanks, and thank you
for coming on board full-time.

I mean, we are going to be
working 'round the clock

to get all this done.

I am happy to help.

One of our biggest events
of the year,

and we already have
more orders than last year.

Ugh, and less than two weeks
to fill them.

And I will gladly pay you
double over time.

That's very generous.

So, when does your new
business partner start?

Oh, they're signing
the paperwork right now.

I'm so glad this worked out.

I'm really excited to be
a part of it,

perfect timing too.

So you're sure you're not
gonna miss the city?

Nope, I'm through
with it there.

Really looking for a change
in scenery now.

- Ah, yeah.
- So now this is taken care of,

you wanna go out and get
a bite and drink, celebrate?

Yeah, yeah.
Uh, it's gotta be quick,

I need to get back
for the movers.

Oh, you're coming tonight?

- Yeah, of course.
- Yeah.

That reminds me, I still need
to place my candy order.

For you or your customers?

For my customers, of course.

Unless I eat them all first.

Which is what usually happens.

Can't say I blame you.

I'm surprised Brooks
isn't here yet.

You invited him tonight?

Uh, no, no, you can just
forward any of my mail

to my new address in Ohio.

Yeah.

Yeah, I hope I made the right
decision, too.

Okay.

- Hey! Hey, man.
- Brooks, I'm glad

- you could make it.
- Thanks for having me.

I got you something.

I think I'm gonna
appreciate this

more than I know.

I heard they only drink
the tea over there, matey.

Oh, hey,

you remember my sister, Kerrie?

Your new business partner.

Hi.
Hi.

- Long time.
- Long time.

It's nice to see
you again, Bean.

Can I talk to you outside?

- Yeah, sure.
- Excuse us.

Sure, yeah, see you soon.

I've changed my mind
about the partnership.

All he did
was walk in the door.

He called me Bean!

Well, I mean you did fail
miserably at your attempt

to create jalapeño hot sauce
jelly bean.

Oh, come on, you know that was
my experimental candy phase.

I know, I think I still
have a hole

in the roof of my mouth from it.

That man made my life
miserable in high school.

It'll be better all around
if I take a home equity loan

and I do everything myself.

That man uprooted his life

to move here to help us.

But if you really want me to,
I'll ask him

to nullify the contract
and I'll refund him the payment.

What about that little cottage
you were thinking about buying?

Don't worry about that.

There are other places
Ophelia and I can rent.

Kerrie,

I didn't want you to be
finically strapped

by taking out a loan.

That's why I thought Brooks

was the perfect solution
for both of us.

But we'll figure
something else out.

Okay, okay.
I might be overreacting.

It's probably just the shock
of seeing him again.

But you're right, high school
was a long time ago.

I'll give it a try,

but if it doesn't work out--

Then you can take out
that home equity loan

and you can buy him out.

If it doesn't work, I will.

It's a good thing you're moving
so far away.

You will thank me
for this one day.

Mm. Don't count on it.

Come on, let's go back in

and enjoy this wonderful
going away party

that you organized for me.

Fine.

I can't believe Brooks McLead
is my business partner.

Have you heard from Jake?

Oh, yeah, he arrived safely

and he's getting settled
into their new place.

So far they love Silchester.

Oh, good.

So how do you know
Brooks again?

High school. He and Jake
were two years ahead of me.

Oh, you were all friends.

I wouldn't say that.

Brooks was always at our house,

but he just teased me relentlessly.

He was always picking on me.

I couldn't stand to be
in the same room with him.

Oh. A bully?

Oh, no, nothing like that.

You know he was just...

popular and athletic, handsome.

You know, that type.

I swear I was the only girl
in school

that didn't treat him
like royalty.

- No wonder he liked you.
- What?

No.

Though there was that time...

What?

Oh, nothing.

It's such a long time ago,
it's meaningless now.

- Okay.
- It was his senior year

and he was hanging out
at our house waiting for Jake.

Eating everything
in the kitchen, I might add.

And he happened to mention
that he didn't have a date

for the Winter
Snow Ball dance...

What happened?

Well, he said that he would
have a better time

going with me than any
of the other girls in school.

Okay, maybe I didn't dislike him

as much as I thought
I did back then.

I thought he meant what he said.

I thought I was his date.

The night of the dance,
he never showed up.

Come to find out he took
Erin Smythe,

captain of
the cheerleaders instead.

Oh, no.

Did he have any idea that
he thought he'd asked you?

Probably not.

I don't know, I avoided
talking to him after that.

And then he moved
after graduation.

I'm sorry. It must've
been devastating

to your sweet little
teenage heart.

Yeah, well,
it was at the time.

Now I just hope he remains
a silent partner that stays--

Hello!

...or not.

Oh, hi!

Good morning.

Alright, ready to get started.

Jake used to bring me here
all the time.

It's like my favourite place.

Your parents were always
so nice to me.

Um... what are you doing?

Um... I just thought
I would promote

some of the higher-priced
products by putting them

in the customers' eye line,
if that's okay?

I'm not interested
in manipulating my customers

into buying anything
they don't want.

I think you mean
our customers,

and I'm not interested
in manipulating them either.

But they can't buy
what they can't see.

You know the average shopper
makes three

unplanned or impulse purchases

on four out of every ten
store visits.

Oh, let me guess,
you're upping the odds?

Exactly.

Um... so do...

do you think we could move
the cash register

over to the candy counter?

What do you know
about candy making?

Absolutely nothing.

Although candy is my favourite
food group.

Oh, this was a bad idea.

- What's that?
- Oh, I said, "I have an idea."

Uh, we need to get
a raffle prize for Winterfest.

Yeah, all the vendors
donate something,

and then the money raised
goes to the local

schools' arts programs.

I can do that.
I can take care of that.

Great, thank you.

Oh, hello, young man,
what is your name?

- James.
- James, are you here alone?

No, my Mom's shopping
next door.

- Well, how can I help you?
- Um...

I want to get one for my Mom,
one for Nana, and one for Lily.

Well, aren't you a sweetheart?
Is Lily your sister?

No, she's my girlfriend.

She's a girl
and she's my best friend.

Okay, I see you have
your piggy bank.

Wow.

10...

20, 30, 40...

- ...60?
- Yeah.

Do I have enough?

You have the exact
right amount.

Here you go, my friend.

And this is a little
something extra for you.

You got everything?

Hang on, let me get
the door for you.

Alright, you go straight
to your mom, okay?

Thanks, bye.

Bye, honey.

What a cutie pie.

Very cute, very cute.
So just out of curiosity,

how much free product
do you give away every month?

I don't know.
I've never counted.

Oh.

- Is that a problem?
- Uh... I hope not.

Brooks, you remember Alexandra
from Jake's going away party?

Oh, yeah, of course.
Hello, hello.

- How are you?
- Hi, busy.

- Good.
- Winterfest is ten days away.

Yeah, so glad
it's still a tradition.

I have some very fun memories
from Winterfest.

Oh, it gets bigger
every year.

Used to a couple of hours
after the student dance,

now, it's a full day and evening
event for the entire community.

Hmm.

Ooh, excuse me.

Hi, honey.

Mm-hmm.

Um, does she clock out
to take personal calls?

Alexandra helps take care
of her five-year-old niece

so she can take a personal call
whenever she needs to,

for however long she needs
to without punching a clock.

Okay, just getting to know
your modus operandi.

We are a family owned
and operated business.

Our MO is we treat
everyone like family.

Good, good to know.

Listen, are you free
to get together for lunch?

Discuss our business plan.

Oh, I... I can't,
I'm really busy.

What about dinner?

I mean, you have to eat

at some point in the day,
don't you?

Uh... okay, dinner.

- A quick dinner.
- Quick dinner.

Great, I'll make a reservation.

Uh, your choice,
anywhere you like.

- Adam's Eatery is fine.
- Okay.

- Say five P.M.?
- Five is fine.

Excellent.

Hey, hey!

Hey, sorry I'm late.

I got caught on a call
for another...

different business venture.

Yeah, I understand that
happens and it's not a problem,

but anytime you're going
to be 15 minutes late,

a text would be appreciated.

You're right, you're right.
That was really rude of me

not to text you. I apologize.

Thank you.

I don't know if you remember,
but this used to be Margolitas.

Mr. and Mrs. Sanchez retired.

Oh, oh, that's too bad.

I liked this place, they had
the best chips and salsa.

- Yeah, you're right, they did.
- Yeah.

Adam took over
several years ago.

He is really the best
chef in town.

- Oh, oh, uh...
- No, no, sorry.

- I'm sorry.
- I got it.

- Sorry.
- Sorry.

- Okay, thanks. Oh.
- It's no worry.

Oh! I, uh... I got it.

Sorry.

Yeah.

- Sorry.
- No, that's okay.

- Is it broken?
- No, all good.

- Should we go in?
- Yeah.

- Thank you.
- You were right,

- that was delicious.
- Oh, I usually am... right.

I'll be sure to keep
that in mind.

Okay, I went through
the shop's entire history.

Oh, you're thorough.

Mm-hmm, before I buy any
business I do all the research.

Oh, your great-grandparents,

they have a very
impressive history.

Well, they did bring
their candy making secrets

over from Europe.

Oh, here's a list of things

that I think we should
consider implementing.

The business is not necessarily
in trouble,

but I think we can
be doing a lot better.

Change name to Murphy
and McLead Candy and Gift shop?

No, no. Absolutely not.

Wait, you're right,
that's a bad idea.

I think it's certainly
important to preserve

the original brand name,

not necessarily
change it right now.

You're right.

Create an employee handbook?

We only have one
full-time employee.

Well, for now but...
what if we expand or franchise?

I think it's really important
to have everything in writing.

That way there aren't a lot
of miscommunications.

You're very by the book,
aren't you?

I'm a businessman.
That's what I know.

Candy, good.

Candy makes people happy.

That was my great-grandparents'
mission and it's mine too.

That's what I know.

And I admire that,
I really do.

And my purpose is
to create more profit.

That's for all of our sakes.

How is everything here?

- Oh, fabulous, thank you.
- Good.

The roasted sirloin rivals

anything I've ever had
in New York City.

I'll gladly take
that compliment.

Good to see you,
give Alexandra my best.

I will.

Well, thank you for dinner.

As much as I would like
to stick around

and discuss marketing strategies
and new signage,

I need to get back
to my candy moulds.

- Oh.
- Because without them,

we won't have a business.

Let me get the check.

Oh, no, no, I got it.
It's fine.

Oh, thank you.

It's a business expense,
so it's a right off.

Right.

- Hey.
- Hey, morning.

You're here early.

As Ben Franklin says,

"Early to bed, early to rise,

makes a man healthy,
wealthy and wise."

Oh, and where does that leave

the artist who finds
their creativity at night?

That's a really good point.
Speaking of creativity,

I want you to look
at our new website.

What was wrong
with our old website?

No, nothing, I just...

just wanted to run
a few ideas by you.

Where's the picture
of my great-grandparents?

It's right here, I moved it
to the history page.

You changed the logo?

No, no, no.
Those are just options.

- Wow.
- I thought you could see them

maybe in case you liked
any of them.

You don't waste any time.

No. Wasted time,
wasted profit.

Did Ben Franklin say that too?

No, that was me.

You know, I've always
been partial to:

don't fix what isn't broken.

No, you'd be amazed
what a great website

and a strong social media
presence does for a business.

We need to expand our reach.

Brooks, I don't have
time for any of this.

That's... that's what
I'm here for.

Right.

- Okay, anything else?
- I thought we could offer

free Wi-Fi service
and then maybe after Winterfest,

we could open
a coffee bar in here

so people could come
and hang out.

Wait, actually that's not
a bad idea.

And a hot chocolate bar.
Yeah, I've been...

I've been working with this new
drink called a hot cocoa bomb.

I'm not sure we have
enough space in here.

We might have to
knock down a few walls,

expand a little bit.
Maybe find a new premises?

No, I'm not knocking down
walls or moving.

Of course after we expand,
we're gonna have to outsource

the chocolate and candy making
to a factory.

- What?
- But this will always be

our flagship store,
so if we invest in it,

it's gonna be fine.

This font is driving me crazy.

Fine, you work on the font,
I'm gonna open the shop.

You're emailing Megan?

Yes, I'm filling her in
on what's happening around here.

How Brooks wants to change
the name of the shop,

change the logo,
knock the walls down and expand.

Do you know he wants to find
a factory to make the candy?

Yeah, he's uh...
very enthusiastic.

And presumptuous
and as arrogant as ever.

You know I told Jake
I'd give this a try,

but it just isn't working.

Well, isn't it too late now?

Well, we'll see about that.

So you own half of Murphy's
Candies and Gifts?

Yes.

Okay, just to make sure
I'm clear,

you want to buy out
this new partner

- you told me about?
- That's my plan.

And what do you have
as collateral on a loan?

I don't have much savings,
but I do have my family home.

My parents put it in my name
before they passed.

I'm sorry for your loss.
And the house is fully paid off?

Yes. I wanted to enquire
about a home equity loan.

I always recommend
a home equity loan

or using your house
as collateral.

Well, you have a solid
credit rating, no debt.

Let me see what I can do
for you, and hopefully,

he won't be your partner
much longer.

I'm really sorry,
but your ex-husband

didn't sign a quit claim.

You're gonna have to get him
to sign a notarized one

to clear the title.

Oh, no, I thought
he signed that.

Well, that's gonna
take some time.

According to my daughter,
he's in some remote part

of Mexico working
for the next six months.

Oh, no, that means
I'm stuck with that obnoxious,

controlling egoist
for a business partner.

Oh.

Okay, this is it.

Clean!

You cheating, kid?

What do you mean,
it's putting, how could I cheat?

Hey, where's my chocolate?

You own half of the best candy
store in town, don't you?

Sorry. Yeah, I forgot.
Next time.

What, what's the matter?
Something wrong?

Ah, it's...

it's not going as smoothly
as I expected.

Well, unlike you,
most people resist change.

Yeah but all...
all I'm trying to do

is turn a bigger
profit for the store.

That helps everybody, right?
And everything I suggest,

everything upsets her.

Huh, it's a dilemma.

Oh! Did you see that?!

- Nice shot, Dad.
- It's like your mother

always used to say, you know,
"There's a...

There's a lid for every pot."

What's that got
to do with anything?

Well, she always used to say,

"In the end, it's the people,
not the things that matter."

Yeah, and what do you say?

Well, I say...

that maybe you should
look at the situation

from your new partner's
point of view

instead of just your own.

Okay, from Kerrie's
perspective.

Yeah, I mean,
this is a lot of change

for someone who's had
no change their whole life.

Yeah.

Alright, that can't be easy.

Mm-hmm.

Here you go,
have a great day.

Alright.

Oh, sorry.

- Don't say it.
- Say what?

That you might've been right
about moving the register.

Oh, no, I didn't say a word.

Yeah, well you didn't have to.

I can see it all over your face.

I can't help it if you're
a highly perceptive woman.

I got you something.

Yeah.

- Here.
- That's for me?

Yeah, you said we needed it.

- What?
- It's the prize for the raffle.

It's a jelly bean jar, Bean.

Yeah, great, I see that.

Okay.

- You like it?
- I... It's perfect.

Okay.

Listen, I got this,
um, display case.

I think it's gonna fit perfectly,

I just have to put it together.

Jelly beans, that's funny.

Oh, yeah.

Real funny.

Oh.

Oh, dear.

I better go help him
before he ruins the whole shop.

Uh, take it easy on him.

He means well.

Fiddle sticks.

- Is everything okay?
- Oh, yeah. It's fine.

You know, I didn't realize
you and my brother

kept in touch all these years.
He never mentioned anything.

Yeah, I thought about him
through the years,

but we actually connected
on a high school class's

social media page.

Oh, I'm surprised you left

an exciting city like New York.

Well, I had my reasons,
you know.

I don't know if you
remember this, but my dad,

he was in the Air Force.

Oh, right, I did know that.

Well, 'cause of his job
we'd move all the time

and I uh...

just kind of got used to that.

I don't think I've ever lived
anywhere longer than two years.

You know, so I guess
it was just...

it was time for me
to make a change.

That must be hard on your
friendships or relationships.

Yeah, I guess so.

But you know, I get restless.

I just get that
restless feeling.

I want to move, you know?

Uh...

No, actually I don't know.

I'm not a big fan of change.

I've lived in the same house
in the same town

and had the same job, well,

apart from babysitting,
my whole life.

What about college?

Uh, well,

the university's regional campus

was 30 miles away,
so I lived at home.

Unlike my daughter,

who went as far
away as possible.

You must have missed her,
I'm sure.

Very much.

But she is following her dreams
and I'm really proud of her.

That's uh... that's amazing.

Yeah, she tells me
about her adventures.

But I like it here in Bedford.

I'm content.

Are you content
or are you happy?

Well, aren't they
the same thing?

Well, no, not really.

Okay, isn't there anything
you've ever wanted to do,

that's not in this little town?

Well, I have always
wanted to go to Europe.

My great-grandparents,

they're from a small village
in Belgium.

It's actually where they learned
their candy making secrets.

You should go.

Just book a ticket.

Make a reservation and go!

You make it sound so easy.

I mean, between school
and taking care of my parents,

and raising Megan, and then
taking over at the shop,

there was just
never enough time.

But I'm sure
I'll get there one day.

I hope you do.

Well, I guess I'd better
get back to the kitchen.

Yes, I'm her aunt.

Does she have a temperature?

No? Okay, good.
I'm on my way.

Is everything okay?

No, that was the school nurse.
Paige isn't feeling well.

I have to go pick her up
and take her home.

Take your time,
I hope she feels better.

Alright, thanks.

Oh, hi.

Bye.

- Where's the fire?
- Oh, she had to get her niece.

Oh, okay... um... listen.

Can we meet for lunch?
My treat.

Oh, I would love that,
but with Winterfest

five days away, I am so busy.

No, that's exactly
what we need to discuss.

But um... you know what?

If you're busy,
I'll go get sandwiches

and I'll bring them back here
and we can eat here.

Yeah but... That's okay.

I... I could probably use
some fresh air.

Just give me 20 minutes
to finish this.

Great. I'll meet you
in the square?

- Yes, sure.
- Great.

May I have one?

Oh, are you gonna personally
cover the cost for that?

You know I'm good for it.

Uh... okay.

Wow... that's amazing.

That's even better
than I remembered it.

I had gourmet chocolate
all over the world

- that doesn't compare to that.
- Well, that means a lot.

- Thank you.
- Our price point's way too low.

Oh, here we go.

No, you're way
under valuing the product.

Okay, look, I really
appreciate the compliment,

but there are a lot of
hard-working people in this town

trying to make ends meet,
and they shouldn't have

to budget to treat themselves
to some candy.

Oh, okay, point taken.

Um...

- I'll see you in the square.
- Yeah.

Mmm! So good!

Brooks.

Wha... Hi.

Erin Smythe.

We went to high school together.

That's right.
Hi, how are you?

Nice to see you.

Um... so what...

What have you been doing?
Where are you living now?

What's your work?
Tell me everything.

Well, my parents still have
a place here

and I have a satellite office
in Cincinnati.

I am... an executive
head hunter.

- That's impressive.
- What's impressive

is your career.

I've been watching it
over the years.

- I've been very fortunate.
- Mmm.

What surprised me was
the candy shop, though.

That's such a huge departure
from your usual ventures.

It is, but it's nice
to be back here in Bedford.

Mmm.

- Hi.
- Hey.

I don't mean to interrupt,
we can talk later.

No, Kerrie, do you
remember Erin Smythe?

That's still the last
name you go by?

Yes, yes.
I've never married.

Oh, yeah, I sure do.

Erin, how are you?

Good, thanks for asking.

This is Kerrie,
Jake's little sister,

my new business partner.

Oh, Jake, I adored him.
He was the best.

He still is.

- I'll tell him you said hello.
- Please do.

So you got to come by
the shop sometime.

She makes the most unbelievable
chocolate and candies.

Sounds delicious,
but I don't eat sugar.

Alright, well, I don't want

to keep you two
from your business,

so we should catch up
more later.

I'd love that.
That'd be great.

Alright.

Uh... Italian or turkey?

Oh, Italian.

- Hey.
- Oh, thank you.

So I have been going through
the financials

for the past five years.

And I think with
a few changes uh...

We can double
last year's numbers.

This is the amount
of free product

that was given away last year.

What? I thought that
was a charitable tax write-off.

Charity is a wonderful thing,

but um... I think
that number's way too high.

There are a lot of deserving
people, Brooks.

There's first responders,

teachers, the elderly
at the senior village.

You are a bleeding heart,
Kerrie Murphy.

Yes, it bleeds candy.

Brooks, not everything
is about the bottom line.

Well, unfortunately
when you're running a business

and you're trying to be
in the black, it is.

If that's all you care about,
why did you buy into

a small family owned business?

We are a far cry from
a Fortune 500 company.

No, I see great potential.

Why did you buy Jake out?

'Cause Willy Wonka's
my favourite movie.

I've always wanted
to own a candy factory.

I'm sorry we don't have
a chocolate river

for you to fall in.

Or Oompa Loompas.
That'd be great, wouldn't it?

It'd really help you out.
That's important, by the way,

a strong work-life balance.

To the bottom line.

Well, if you're exhausted
and burnt out,

you're of no use to me.

No, but seriously.

You do, you work all the time,
you're really devoted

to the shop.
You need some down time.

Why don't you take
a vacation or a staycation?

It has been a while
since I've had any time off.

I didn't even take a honeymoon.

Free time, I don't know
what I'd do with myself.

Take a trip to Europe?

Alone? No.

How long has it been
since you were divorced?

I mean... sorry,
that's a personal question.

It's okay, um...

I got married relatively young

and the marriage
lasted about four years.

I naively thought that love

could conquer
all our differences.

But he's a good dad to Megan
and that's all that matters.

What about you?

Oh, never...
never married, no kids.

Huh.

But I am known
to all my friends' children

as Fun Uncle Brooks.

I was voted life of the party
in high school.

- Do you remember that?
- Oh, right.

So that's the real reason

you wanted to buy into
the candy store.

- You wanted to keep your title.
- Well, yeah, of course.

You're seeing right
through me right now.

How is Paige feeling?

Oh, it's just a tummy ache,
she's back to a hundred percent.

Oh, good, I'm glad.

Have you heard from Megan,
how's she doing?

Oh, she is having
the time of her life

visiting a different country
every weekend.

- Oh.
- You want some more hot cocoa?

Oh, well, I'm good, thanks.

Oh! I found this,
this morning.

I have been dying to show you.

Wait...

- Look, look, look.
- Oh! Looks like a year book.

- Yes, it is!
- Let's see!

Look. This is me.

Right here, my sophomore year.

You are adorable.

Goodness,
where does the time go?

Let me see if I can
find my brother.

- Oh, there he is.
- Oh, look at Jake.

What was his senior quote?

Oh, uh, "Life is like
a box of candies,

you get what you get
and you don't get upset."

That is fitting. Mm-hmm.

Oh, and here is Brooks.

- Oh! He was handsome.
- Mmm...

And looked super confident
even back then.

Hm, confident, arrogant,

whatever you want to call it.

"Life belongs to the living

and he who lives must be
prepared for changes."

That's pretty deep quote
for a teenager.

Hmm.

And the polar opposite to your
outlook on change.

Yeah, I guess that's true.

Thank you.

Here's an order form.

Order form for you?

Order form for you.

Oh, Adam. Order form?

Thanks.

- Do you have a pen?
- Oh, yep.

Ah.

Thank you.

- What do you recommend?
- Oh, I mean,

everything here is delicious.

That's the problem.

Here's a better question,
what's your favourite?

Oh, um... peppermint bark.

Peppermint bark, it is.

Wow, you guys
are busier than ever.

Yeah, we are, it's gonna be
crazy until after Winterfest.

Uh... I actually
wanted to ask if I could...

I guess I'll catch you later.

- Yes, please.
- Yeah.

I'll be back with more forms.

Bye.

Thank you.

Hi, I'll have three
mint melt-aways,

three of your new salted coconut
caramel buttercreams, please.

Three...

Here you go.

Kerrie always
gives me a sample.

Uh...

- Don't tell anyone.
- It'll be our little secret.

Oh, you need someone
sweet in your life.

Well, no, I have my dad.

Although I wouldn't
call him sweet.

The word I'd use
is "cantankerous".

Well, keep your eye open.

You never know.

Thank you.

Oh my goodness,
you weren't kidding.

It's the busiest time of year,
it's like a madhouse out there.

We're out of vanilla buttercreams.

No, we're not, I made a batch
earlier this morning.

- I'll go get them.
- You are unbelievable.

You're just figuring that out?

Teenage boys are not known
for their wisdom.

Oh, yeah,
what's your excuse now?

It's unbelievable
how good these are.

Some day you have to teach me

your magical
candy-making secrets.

Well, I'm making chocolate
snow flakes tonight,

you're welcome to stick around
and help if you want.

- Really?
- Sure.

I wouldn't be in the way?

And if you are,
I'll kick you out.

I believe you would.

Yeah, I'd love that.
I'll bring coffee.

Oh, make it a hot cider
and you're on.

Aye, aye, Bean.
Oh, thank you.

- Don't give me that look.
- Hmm...

Oh, hi, Erin, how are you?

You will never guess who
I just got off the phone with.

A global top ten company

and they are looking
for a new COO.

I immediately thought of you.

Global top ten.
Wow, that's incredible.

As you know,
these positions rarely open up,

they are highly coveted
and very prestigious.

Not to mention the bonuses
and the benefits.

Now, their main office
is in California,

but they would be open
to you working

from the Cincinnati office.

I told them all about you,
they're very impressed.

Wow, wow.

They want to meet you.

I... listen, I...

I know this is
a once in a lifetime offer

and I'm very flattered but--

Listen, you don't need
to decide this minute.

Take some time, alright?

Alright.

Listen, I've got another call,

I will fill you in on the rest
of the details later.

How does over
a late dinner sound?

Okay... okay sure but--

Great, can't wait.

Okay, ready for
my first lesson.

Alright.

This is a cacao bean
from South America.

Yeah.

Our family's been
doing business

with the same cocoa farm
for generations.

Oh, it's not like a coffee bean

but with a little alchemy,
it'll turn into...

Liquid gold.

Yes.

And there's a reason
they say chocolate

is the food of the gods.

Um... pick a mould.

Okay, any mould?

Any mould.

Uh... oh!

I'll do that, winter tulips.

Oh, you're a romantic.
Who knew?

I think people
are beginning to suspect.

Okay, this is your chocolate,
it's the right temperature.

- Okay.
- It's pretty simple.

You're gonna take it and you're
gonna pour it into this mould.

You're an artist
and chocolate is your medium.

I think it is a good
combination of art and science.

You know, I never get
to do anything creative

in my line of work.

It's all spread sheets
and numbers.

- Hmm...
- This is fun.

Well, if you think this is fun

wait till we make
butterscotch candy pillows.

Have you ever thought
about teaching a class?

Actually, I... I would like
to teach a class.

In fact, Jake and I
talked about that,

and then we never
organized anything.

Really? I'll be happy to set
that up for you if you want.

- Really?
- No problem.

Thanks.

- Oh! Um...
- Oh.

That's okay. That's okay.

We're just gonna do this.

All you have to do
is dip that...

and it'll fill all the moulds.

Hello!

Oh, Erin!
Hi, how are you?

- Hi.
- Come in.

Thanks.

You didn't text me back

about what time you wanted
to have that late dinner.

Oh, um... I...

Sorry, my phone was off
and we were just

in the middle of...
Kerrie's teaching how

to make and pour
chocolate moulds.

Yeah, I find that's a useful
skill for a candy shop owner.

Of course.

Oh, who knew
you of all people

would've turned out
to be Willy Wonka?

That's actually just
what we were saying.

Well, you should get going.

No, but the lesson with--

Oh, no, it's fine.

We can do it another time,
go have fun.

- Oh, I...
- Come on.

She doesn't mind.

Alright, I'm gonna go
get my coat.

Do you want some candy?
Oh, no, you don't eat sugar.

Right.

What was I thinking?

I practically
kicked him out the door.

Sounds like someone's
catching feelings.

What is that,
like catching a cold?

Girl, it means you like him.

No.

No, no, no.
I mean I will admit

the business partnership
is working out

better than I expected, but no.

I do not need any
romantic entanglements

to complicate my life.

I like my life
just the way it is.

Change isn't always
a bad thing.

Like you said, the new
partnership is working out,

maybe a new relationship
will too.

Even if... no.

Anyway, he's dating Erin.

That's the cheerleader
he took to the dance over me.

- You're kidding?
- But it's okay,

if he's happy,
I'm happy for him.

I see the way you two
look at each other.

I wouldn't write him
off just yet.

Alexandra!

You forgot your scarf,

I wouldn't want
your neck to get cold.

Oh, that was so thoughtful
of you, thank you.

Anytime.

Ah. Looks like someone else
is catching feelings.

Oh! He's just being friendly.

He's a very conscientious restaurateur.

I don't know about that.

If I left my scarf,
I'm pretty sure it would end up

in the lost and found bin.

Oh, come on,

Winterfest is just two
days away, we got a lot to do.

Morning.

Morning.

I'm gonna finish the last
batch of peanut brittle.

How was your date?

Oh, I really wouldn't
call it a date,

just a couple of friends
getting together,

having pizza and catching up.

Erin's an executive
head hunter.

I would like to think that
I've left that world behind.

Oh, well, good for her
and good for you.

Yeah.

She's a good person
and a good friend,

but not what I'm looking for.

What are you looking for?

It's funny I was thinking...

thinking about this
the other day.

I... I think...

I was thinking I'd like a...
like a best friend.

You know somebody
who challenges me,

but also, you know,
who has my back.

Who's genuine, but you know,

genuinely cares about me,
you know?

I agree.

That is the least
of what you deserve.

Okay.

Well...

What, uh...

What do you mean?

Well, I'm just saying um...

that you deserve someone

who sees that underneath
that often bossy,

take charge, sometimes socially
tone deaf, successful

suit exterior,
is a really decent guy.

Thank you.

That's nice, thank you.

You're welcome.

Oh, hi, welcome to Murphy's.

- Hi!
- What can I get for you?

I'm off to the senior pavilion.

- Need any help?
- Oh, no.

I shouldn't be that long.

Um...

Also, Brooks will be
by after lunch.

Okay, sounds good.

I've got everything
covered here.

I can see that,
that is amazing.

- Thanks.
- You're so talented.

See you later.

This...

will look like nice
on your door

until next spring, at least.

This is for my
new friend, Eileen.

Okay.

Isn't tomorrow
the big Winterfest?

Yeah, yeah it is.

Oh, that reminds me.

I brought you
your favourite candy.

- Rocky Road fudge?
- What?

Since when that's
your favourite?

I got you toffee.

Oh.

Well... I'm just testing.
Toffee is my favourite.

Come on.

Yeah.

Hey, how's that all
coming along

with your new business partner?

Great, she's feisty.

She's like a momma bear
with a cub

when it comes to her shop.

She really speaks her mind.

- Oh.
- But she's also passionate

about her craft, so...

But then when she lets
her guard down,

she's... she's sweet.

Pardon the pun.

But she's fun, she's funny.

Sounds like a perfect
match for you.

No, not like that, Dad.

Just because you've been
burned once

doesn't mean you have
to give it up altogether.

Dad, we're business partners,
that's it.

Look, it seems to me, Son,
that if you share the same

values and goals and outlooks
and you know how to comprise,

well, you've got most
of the ingredients

to have a successful relationship.

I had a big offer,

the kind you don't refuse,
come across my desk.

And?

Uh... well,
I'm thinking it over.

I told them
I needed some time.

Although I'd be lying
if I said I wasn't tempted.

But also I don't really miss that...

shark and piranha
filled world.

And I made a commitment
to Jake and Kerrie, so...

The only important question
is are you happy here?

Yeah, I am.

That's all that matters.

Brooks?

Kerrie, hi.
What are you doing here?

- What are you doing here?
- Ah... oh.

This is my dad, Joel.

Everybody calls me Papa Joel.

Well, it is very nice
to meet you, Papa Joel.

I see where Brooks gets
his sparkling eyes.

And his sweet tooth.

Well, it sure is nice
meeting you.

I've heard a lot about you.

Oh no, if you've heard it
from him,

it's probably not true.

Oh, I like her.

Well, he doesn't say that
about very many people.

Well, I'm honoured.

Um... what are you doing here?

Are you, uh... you're making
deliveries for Winterfest?

Uh... well, you know,
you would probably consider this

a bimonthly tax deductible,
charitable donation,

but I like to call it,

"Never showing up empty-handed
when you're visiting friends."

Oh, Martha!

That is a beautiful wreath.

I have your favourite candy,
you're gonna love this.

Well...

Oh, making these winter wreaths
just wears me out,

I'm gonna take a nap.

Oh, yeah, Dad,
it's real strenuous.

And uh... I think...

that you should just
go over there

and help that pretty
business partner of yours.

- That's real subtle, Dad.
- I'll see you later, alright?

Alright, enjoy, you guys.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Do you need any help?

Sure, um... would you mind
giving this to Jack?

He's over there.

He has allergies,
so I make this special for him.

What?

Nothing, just...

You continue to surprise me.

Oh, well, I could say
the same about you.

Thank you for helping me.

Oh and for not lecturing me

about all the product
I'm giving away.

I would never do that.

I mean, look how happy you're
making everybody here, it's--

Okay who are you

and what have you done
with my business partner?

That's true,
I have spent my whole life

being obsessed
with the bottom line,

but I think now
I'm realizing that...

I don't know,
there's more to life.

Well, I suppose
without a profit,

there wouldn't be any
product to give away, so...

So you're saying
that we make a good team?

Yeah.

Hey, listen,
when you're done with this,

there's something I want
to show you, okay?

Okay, yeah.

Yeah, I found this place when
I was out walking with my dad.

Oh, it's really nice.

Um... how come your dad
lives here and not with you?

Or is that too personal?

No, no, not at all.

Uh... he says it's because
he doesn't like my cooking.

He's just very independent

and he also has
a very active social life.

I think it comes from years
of living

on a military base
surrounded by people.

Oh, that makes sense.

I bet Papa Joel is popular
with the ladies too.

Well, he has friends but uh...

he says that my mom
was the love of his life,

his soulmate, and the only one
that's truly in his heart.

- That's beautiful.
- Yeah.

I always wanted to have
that kind of devotion

to someone but...

But you never live
in one place long enough?

Okay, I accept that.

But now I've answered
all your questions.

Come here, I got some...

Why did you shun me
so much in high school?

I didn't shun you in...

Ugh.

Okay.

This is gonna sound
really childish now,

but you picked on me

all the time, relentlessly.

Well, yeah, of course,
you're my best friend's

very cute off limits
little sister.

Of course I picked on you.
That... that was my job.

You were also very arrogant.

Okay.

Yeah, I accept that.

I think I was a new kid
in a new school

every other year since the time
I was five years old

so I just, I learned
to go in strong.

Otherwise I'd be eaten alive.

Kids are vicious,
especially in high school.

So it was a facade, was it?

Yeah, more than you know.

Listen, I want to apologize.
I didn't mean to pick on you.

I never meant that meanly.

I'm very sorry.

And I want to ask you if there's
anything else that I did

during that time,
because I would like

to apologize for that too.

Fine.

When I was a sophomore
and you were a senior...

I was under the impression

that you invited me
to be your date

to the Winter Snow Ball dance.

What?

I bought a dress,

I did my hair and makeup and...

I waited all night.

You never showed.

What I... I'm so sorry, Kerrie,

I never knew that
I gave you that impression.

If I had known,
I never would've of--

I know.

- I'm sorry, Bean.
- Oh, that's another thing.

I detested that nickname.

Because of you in high school,

I was called every variation
a person could think of.

Uh... Stinky Bean,
Bossy Bean, Jelly Bean.

Ugh, the list went on and on.

Sorry.

Listen, I would like you
to consider forgiving me,

and I would like to ask you

if this could be
a fresh start for us.

What do you say?

Okay, fresh start.

You never did tell me
why you moved back.

Here? Oh I just...

Yeah, fond memories of Bedford,

and then I wanted
to get out of the city

and Jake called right
at the right time, so...

And also...

What?

It's nothing.

It's okay.

We should get going.

Lots to do before
the big day tomorrow.

Okay, alright, let's go to it.

- Okay.
- Fresh start.

Yes, fresh start.

Oh, I remember when you and Jake

planned the senior prank,

and you bubble wrapped
the hallways.

I plead the fifth.

Although I will say,
whoever thought of that,

absolute genius.

Oh, it was funny.

I also remember a very sweet
sophomore gift

to the entire senior class,

their own personalized
box of candy.

Yes, well you almost
didn't get one.

My parents made me include you.

This is kind of embarrassing,
I never had a...

I don't know how
a cocoa bomb works.

Oh, well, I'll show you.

Take this,

you put it right in there,

and then you add some hot milk.

Watch this.

See that? And then
it explodes

and there are all
the marshmallows!

- Oh, that's cool!
- Yeah, try it.

Oh, thank you.

It's amazing.

You made all those?
That's incredible.

Oh, it's not that hard,
I can teach you.

Well, that is the last one.

I think we're all set
for tomorrow.

Okay, well I have
some financials to do so...

I'll lock up,
you guys can take off.

Okay. Oh, well don't
work too late,

we have a big day tomorrow.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll go get my coat
and my things.

I haven't seen you smile
like this in, I don't know when.

Yeah, after my divorce,
I just focused

on raising Megan
and running the shop.

I didn't want another
failed relationship.

Maybe you didn't fail,
maybe the marriage failed you.

Maybe.

I'm happy for you.

Everyone deserves
a second chance.

Especially when
it comes to love.

Jake, what time is it there?

And what are you eating?

I was hungry for
a midnight snack.

It's almost one A.M.
I couldn't sleep.

Beans on toast.

Funny with the beans.

So, you all set
for Winterfest tomorrow?

Yes, the candy is all made

and Brooks is gonna
meet me early

and help me set up the booth.

Yeah, he mentioned that to me

when I spoke to him earlier.

Oh, you talked to him?

Don't worry,

he's gonna turn down
Erin's business proposal.

Wait, what business proposal?

I thought he told you.

Uh, apparently not.

Do you care to fill me in?

Jake, I'm waiting.

There you go,
happy Winterfest.

You know, I'm feeling
a little thirsty.

Would you like a hot cider?

- Mm, I'd love one.
- Okay, I'll be right back.

Hey. Uh, there you go.

What's going on with Kerrie?

- What do you mean?
- I mean, is she okay?

Oh, she's probably
just stressed.

This is the biggest day
of the year for the shop.

Right, right. Where'd she go?

To get us a couple
of hot ciders.

Oh, do you want one?

No, thanks,
one's plenty for me.

Oh right, okay.

Bye.

Two ciders, please.

Hey!

Hey.

Busy day, huh?

Oh, yeah, very busy.

You're okay, right?

You're not upset
with me or anything?

No, I just have to get back
to the booth.

Uh... can we talk later? Great.

Hey, you.

Oh, hey, Erin. Hi.

I had a really fun time
the other night.

It was fun,
connecting with old friends.

- Yeah.
- Not that you're old.

That's not what I meant.

I do, I do,
I know what you mean.

Not to sound cliché,
but it's true,

you know, what they say,
old friends are the best.

Absolutely, yeah.

So, not to pressure you,
but I need to know.

Here you go.

What's going on with you two?

Nothing, what do you mean?

Yesterday was all fireworks.
Today, it's like the ice age.

Oh, hi, Eileen, how are you?
I have your order.

I am fantastic and enjoying
this wonderful festival.

- How are you?
- Oh, great.

Winterfest is the best
time of year.

Are you alright, dear?

Yeah, it's just been
a tumultuous month

and once again,
things aren't certain.

Nothing in life ever is,

but I do believe
that what's meant to be

will always find a way.

The client is really
interested in meeting you.

And between you and me,

you are a shoo-in
for the COO position.

It would be a huge step up
in the corporate world.

But I need to know either way.

Listen, I can't tell you

how much I appreciate
this offer.

But uh... even though I might
regret this in the future,

I'm gonna turn down
the opportunity.

I'm very committed
to this little shop.

I understand.

Alright, well you know
where to find me

if you change your mind.

Oh!

Sorry, little something
in my throat.

One second, I have your order.

Megan!

Surprise!

Oh my goodness!

You're supposed to be in Europe,
what are you doing here?

I got your email and I wanted
to come surprise you.

Uncle Jake helped me
with the ticket.

Oh, that was so nice of him.

I have to fly back
on Monday but--

It doesn't matter,
I'm so happy you're here.

Oh, um...

Megan, this is Brooks,
my business partner.

Brooks, this is my daughter, Megan.

Hello, hello, I've heard
so much about you.

Yeah, same here.

I've missed this.

I haven't been home
for Winterfest in years.

Well, that is the nice thing
about traditions.

You can always
come back to them.

But I do worry about you,

especially with Uncle Jake
and Ophelia and me so far away.

I'll be fine,
I'll figure it out.

Aren't you the one
always telling me

communication is the most
important thing

in any relationship?

Well...

things are a little
more complicated

with good ol' Brooks.

Only if you let it be.

When did you get so smart?

I get it from my mom.

Um, I see a couple of friends
I want to say hi to.

Oh, okay. Oh!
And here's our raffle ticket.

Let me know if we win anything.

- You got it.
- Alright, love you.

Love you.

Hi. I hope
I didn't interrupt.

No, she just wanted
to say hi to some friends.

Um... I'm told that
it's a tradition

here at Winterfest
for partners to dance.

Would you dance with me?

If you don't tell me
what the problem is,

I don't know how to fix it.

I just had my whole life
turned upside down,

so if you
and the pretty head hunter

are gonna leave me
in a lurch,

I'd rather know
sooner than later.

I knew it.

No, wait, wait, wait.
Let me explain.

You asked why I bought Jake out,

and I just didn't
tell you everything.

When I was in New York,
I was engaged.

And the relationship
wasn't perfect,

but I was dedicated to it,

until I discovered
that the woman that I was with,

she wasn't the woman
that she said she was at all.

It was just...

It was utterly humiliating

to know that the person
I trusted most in the world,

she... she betrayed me,

in more ways than one.

And then the fallout

professionally and personally,

it just...

Brooks, I'm so sorry,
I had no idea.

So that's why
you left New York.

I just started revaluating
my life,

my career choices, everything.

And I decided that I wanted
to make a clean break

from that world.

And that's... that's right
when your brother called me.

What about this new business
opportunity with Erin?

I said no.

I don't want to go back
into that world.

Are you sure
this is what you want?

Yeah.

That chapter in my life
is closed.

It's finished.

And I'm very excited

to be writing this new
chapter with you, together.

Thanks.

Oh, Adam, hi.

I didn't see you earlier.

Oh, let me find your order.

I finally managed
to escape the restaurant.

Ah, no, it's for you.

As are these.

They're beautiful.

My favourites, how'd you know?

I was hoping we could have
dinner this week?

It'd be nice letting
someone else cook for once.

I'd like that a lot.

Well, I've got to get back
to the eatery.

I'm not complaining
about being busy but--

I understand.
Thanks again for these.

You're welcome.

Hi, sorry.

Um...

I... I, um...

I think we should probably
get back to the booth.

Sure.

How's it going?

Oh, good, better than ever.

We thought you could
use a break.

Oh, thanks.

Oh, do we have more
chocolate peanut butter fudge?

- We're all out.
- Yes, I made a batch

this morning,
but it's back at the shop.

I'll get it.
I'll be right back.

Thank you.

You two looked pretty cozy
out there on the dance floor.

Oh, it's a Winterfest tradition,

business partners have to dance

at least once dance together.

Mm-hmm.

These are some nice flowers,
where'd they come from?

Uh-huh!

David, give these
to your grandmother,

they are her favourite, thanks.

- Kerrie.
- Oh, Tim.

- Do you have a minute?
- Sure.

I've been meaning to call you.

I did a little digging

and the paperwork was signed,

it was just filed incorrectly.

So, your loan has been approved, congratulations.

Now you can buy out
your obnoxious,

controlling, egoist
of a business partner.

You're free.

Congratulations.

I acted impulsively

because I was upset
about something.

I'm sorry, Tim, but I'm not
gonna need that loan.

Things with my new
business partner

are better than I could've
ever dreamed.

Again, I'm sorry
for the inconvenience.

Oh, no worries.
I'm glad to hear it.

Hey, why don't you come by
the booth

for some peanut butter
chocolate fudge, on the house?

I'll gladly take you
up on that.

Hey, Erin, it's Brooks, um...

Hey, I had a bit
of a change of heart.

Um, I'm wondering
if you could go ahead

and set up that
interview for me.

Uh... call me back,
let me know, thank you.

Mom, you won!

What?

I never win anything.

Well, you did this time.

Open it.

Oh.

Are you kidding?

Seriously?

It's meant to be.

Mom, a couple of my friends
are getting together

- at Izzy's house. Do you mind--
- Oh, go have a good time, okay.

- Thank you.
- Love you.

Love you too.
See you, Alexandra.

See you.

Uh, did Brooks say when
he would be coming back?

He did, he just said
he had some calls to return.

Hi, I got you a coffee.

- Oh, thanks.
- Hey, have you seen Brooks?

I looked for him after
Winterfest last night,

and he hasn't returned
my messages. It's not like him.

Yeah, I haven't seen him
since he dropped off

the fudge at the booth.

You know what?

I'm starting to worry.

Maybe he just lost his phone.

Yeah, well whatever,
I hope he's okay.

Oh, still no response.

What's so urgent that
you had to interrupt bingo?

I was winning.

You remember that big offer
I told you about?

What, the one
you can't turn down?

Yeah, that's the one.

And the main campus
is in California,

so get your surfboard ready.

Oh, I... I thought things
were going pretty well.

You and Kerrie seemed to be
hitting it off, am I wrong?

Uh, no, no, I was.

What? I thought you wanted
to move to the Golden state.

Well, I kind of like living
in the Buckeye state.

Come on, what happened?

I don't know, Dad.

Just uh... wrong about
a woman again.

Anyway, listen,

if you want to stay here,
there's offices in Cincinnati

that I can work out of.

I'll make sure everything's
taken care of,

whatever you want.

No, no, I go where you go.

I've had a great life.

Your happiness,
that's what matters to me.

Okay, thanks.

I love you, Dad.

You don't look very happy.

Matter of fact,
you look downright miserable.

- You wanna talk about it?
- No, no, not really, no.

You got to remember
that Kerrie isn't Sierra.

I gotta go to Cincinnati,
sign these papers.

I'll be back in a few hours.

Let me know,
I'll be ready to go.

- Jake, hey.
- So, how was Winterfest?

We nearly doubled
what we made last year.

I told you Brooks
was a financial genius.

And how are things
going with him?

Good, great,
we sorted out the job thing,

and now everything's perfect.

I had a feeling
you two would hit it off.

Yeah, I just don't know
where he is right now.

Any sign of Brooks?

No, he's never
been this late before.

Okay, that's it.

Something is not right.

Where are you going?

Well, I'll tell you
where I'm going.

I am going to break out
of my fortress

and get some answers,
no matter what they might be.

- That's where I'm going.
- Yes, girl.

Papa Joel.

Kerrie, what a nice surprise,
what brings you here?

Oh, I thought everyone
might need a break

from all that candy.

Is Brooks here?

Um, no, sorry.

Papa Joel,
do you have a minute?

For you?
Absolutely, sit down.

Thank you.

Oh, I'm gonna miss
these snowy winter days.

Oh, well, not to worry,

you still have a few more
months of snowy weather.

Not where I'm moving.

You're moving?

Yeah, didn't Brooks
mention anything to you?

No, he did not.

Well, I don't think
it's my place to...

He's in Cincinnati
at a business meeting,

and if all goes well,

we'll be relocating
to California.

And by the sounds of it,
pretty soon too.

I don't understand.

Look, I don't know
what happened between you two.

But there's one thing I do know.

When you get to my age,

well, you won't regret
the chances you took for love.

Only the ones
you let pass you by.

Do you know
when he'll be back?

Late afternoon.

Thank you.

Oh, and...

Please don't
tell him we talked.

Oh, I won't.

Kerrie.

I want you to know...

I'm rooting for you.

Me too.

The only thing that's missing
from this is your signature.

Now if you don't like
the California campus,

you can always come back to
Cincinnati and work from here.

No, no, my dad's stoked
for the sun and surf.

I don't blame him.

You're lucky to have him.

I am.

I worked so hard
my whole life.

I sacrificed nearly everything
to be successful.

I think you and I
are two of a kind.

These are from a client,
have one.

Thank you.

What should I do with this,
regift it?

It's starting to grow on me.

Oh, excuse me.

Murphy Candy and Gifts.

Hi.

How did you find me?

Papa Joel.

Oh, yeah, should've guessed.

- Can we talk?
- No, I don't think so.

I'm so sorry that this
didn't work out,

but I will sign
any papers that you have.

Brooks, what are you
talking about?

I'm talking about
the loan documents.

Unfortunately for you,
I overheard you

talking to the bank manager.

So please don't worry.

I'm not gonna cause
any problems.

Brooks, is that
what you thought?

That I would confront you
about leaving me in the lurch

and I'd go behind your back
and get a secret loan

to buy you out of the business?

I told Tim
I don't want the loan.

I had him cancel it.

Yeah, yes, at first,
I did want it, but...

...that was before
I got to know you.

I had the contract
in my hand...

...and I couldn't sign it.

- You didn't sign it?
- No.

Why not?

It's because this restlessness

that has driven me my whole life
from place to place...

...is not here anymore.

It's gone.

Since I met you.

I guess I'm changing.

Well, life is for
the living, but...

...he who is living must be
prepared for changes.

Is that my high school
yearbook quote?

What about you,
why didn't you take the loan?

What changed your mind?

Well, I might have
fallen in love with you.

You might have?

I have fallen
in love with you.

And it's wonderful
and terrifying,

because you know how
I feel about change.

But I had to come and find you
and tell you,

and honestly, if you don't
feel the same way it's...

- I like it.
- Me too.

I got something for you.

What?

It's a surprise.

Two tickets to Belgium?

That's right. We're gonna go
back to the very little village

that your great-grandparents
learned to make candy,

and then we're gonna see
Jake and Ophelia,

and of course, we'll see Megan.

I love you, Brooks McLead.

I love you too, Bean.
