Original subtitles

Previously on Cedar Cove...

Grace asked meto run the town event committee.

You want something from methat I can't give you.

What, forgiveness?

I feel likeI'm cheating on Jack.

How?

There's a problemwith the investors.

So, you want to hire meto be your assistant?

Hey!

Boy, you weren't easyto catch up to,

but I, too,have been known

to take out my frustrationson the pavement.

I'm not frustrated.

[laughs] Okay.

Well, I'ma little frustrated

by a certaindefense attorney.

But you can help

if you have timefor a sit down later today?

Sure.

I've got a final divorcedecree this morning,

but if you're freethis afternoon?

I am.

I don't envy you.

Envy me?

I thinkI became a DA

so I wouldn't have tohandle divorce cases.

[laughs]

That's a bit extreme.

Divorce

is a bottomless pit of hatred

binding two people together

whose only goal is to inflictemotional and financial pain

on someone they sworethey'd love until death.

If you ask my opinion.

Wow, so, a personalor professional observation?

Uh, both.

Not observational.Fact.

No, observation,not fact.

And yes, a lot ofdivorces end up ugly,

but most of the time,

it's just aboutdistribution of assets

accruedduring a marriage.

A divorce isan autopsy of a marriage.

It is ugly.

Said the pessimist.

Oh, and I suppose

you had one of those"amicable" divorces?

You did!

I thought they werejust legend.

[chuckling]

Do you wantto talk about it?

Well, we already are,

aren't we?

Um...

My ex is...

a great woman,

but she has issues.

And I thoughtI could change her--

I know.

Or... save her.

And I failed on both fronts.

Do you regret it?

Well, at this pointin my life,

I didn't thinkI'd be living

in a three-star hotel,

alone,

eating cold takeoutevery night, so...

I regret that.

But I've come to realize

that if you're withthe wrong person...

you're alone anyway.

Okay, well,no more takeout for you.

No more?[laughs]

Yeah. You have to go

to the Time & TideBed and Breakfast,

and tell themthat I sent you.

Okay.

And they will takereally good care of you,

and they'll feed you.

-Food, too?-Yeah!

[♪]

You look awful.

[scoffs] Thank you.

No, really bad.

Okay, got it.

Gonna tell me?

Olivia and I had a bad fight,

and I have two deadlinesat two different papers.

Well, you can't push herto move in with you

just to make yourselffeel better, you know.

I'm not pushing her.

Okay, maybeI'm pushing, a little.

Yeah.

I just don't wantto lose her, Bob.

30, 40 years ago,if you loved a woman,

the only wayyou could live with her

was with a priestand a reception,

or if she was your mother.

We're nota couple of kids, Bob.

We've both been marriedbefore, remember.

And divorced.

Just give her some space, hmm?

And time for herto trust you again.

She'll findher way back to you.

And if she doesn't?

You got to have faith.

Yeah.

Hey, I wasjust wondering,

who's that new guy

that I keep seeing with Olivia?

You mean, Paul?The new D.A.?

Yeah.

He seemsa little too friendly.

I'm not sure I likethe cut of his jib.

He has a bad jib, does he?

You just watch him.

Okay.

I will watch him and his jib.

I have decided

on what will be my firstofficial act for me

as Town Manager,

and your first actas Town Event Manager.

Great.

We are going to takea group photo

of everyone in Cedar Cove!

The whole town?

Yes!

We are going tomeet tonight

at dusk,

at the marina.

We are going to forma big group, and--

[imitates a shutter clicking]

Picture!

End of story.

Right? Right?

Tonight?

Why so fast?

Yeah, well,I kind of, you know,

got ahead of myself a bit,

because I sent out the e-mail

-before I---Thought it through?

I could really usea whole lot more "can do"

and a little less "can't do"from you.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Reporting for work.

First day.

Oh, right.

The job.

Did we set a time?

Yes, an hour ago.

[sighs] My bad.

Um, have you had breakfast?

It's lunchtime.

That's an excellent point.

Uh, why don't Iput my stuff away,

and then we'll figureout what's what.

Hey.

Come on in.

You look busy.

New job, just doing12 things at once.

How's that working for you?

Great.

I, uh, could livewithout my boss sometimes,

but everyone says that, right?

You okay?

No, not really.

It's Warren.

[scoffs]

Warren...

If only we couldrun people out of town

with pitchforksand torches, huh?

Actually,with Warren,

I could get a group togetherlike that-- [snaps fingers]

He's blackmailing me,or threatening to.

About what?

[sighs heavily]

Back when I was a trader,

I had an elderly coupleas clients.

They couldn't cometo the office,

so I went to their housewith some stock transactions.

Well, trading outsideof the office

is against SEC regulations.

This guyin our office

told my boss.

Wow.

Yeah.

It's pretty competitivein the world of trading.

You use any edgeyou can get

to get rid ofthe competition,

and I gave him a big one.

I got barred from tradingand fired.

It made the papersand everything.

Has Warren told Buck anything?

You should come clean,tell him everything.

At the very least,you'll ruin Warren's fun,

but more importantly,

you shouldget ahead of the story.

Make sure that you tellyour story, not Warren.

[knock on door]

Hey.

[sighing]

Do you think the light'sgonna be okay at 5:00?

'Cause I mean,

if it'stoo bright, then...

The town photo.

I don't wanta town picture

full of squinters.

You know, the eyes arethe windows to the soul.

Your windows are all fogged up.

[chuckles]

Did you talk to Jack?

Not yet.

Well, you have to.

You have a fight,you have to make up.

That's the best part,

hearing them say,

"I'm sorry.

"You were right.

I'm an idiot."

That wasmy ringtone

when I was married to Dan.

Not that, you know,Jack is Dan.

I can move past the fact

that he was drinkingbehind my back,

and even thoughI don't like her,

I'm over the facthe was hanging out with Jeri.

Then what is it?

What if this relapsewasn't an isolated incident?

What if this iswhat I'm signing up for?

Hi.

I'm uh, Paul Watson.

I called earlier,I spoke to your wife,

she said you had a vacancy?

It filled.

In an hour?

Yup. We're very popular.

And friendly.

[chuckling]

Yes, to most people,I am friendly.

Paul?

Peggy?

Welcome.

Thank you. Hi.

I've gota great room for you,

very private, very quiet,in the back.

Dinner is at 7:00,

so, do you haveany allergies?

I will eat anythingyou put in front of me.

I love guestswhen they say that.

Come on.

Okay.

This is feelingsuspiciously

like an excuse to give me moneyand not a job,

which is what my momthought it would be,

so it's doubly upsettingthat this is making her right.

It is a job.

I need you.

I have business.

All I've done so faris drive you to this restaurant.

Correction,

you drove meto a business meeting,

which is what assistants do.

Uncle Will...

It's true!

This is...

Justine.

Warren.

Will, right?

Yeah, it is.

-Hey. It's been a while.-Yeah, sit, please.

Warren, we havea business meeting.

Yeah, I know.

You do?

Mm-hmm.

It's with me.

Warren and I

might doa little business together.

So, if the termsare agreeable to both parties,

we can move onwith the final divorce decree.

Your Honor.

I would like to keep the house.

What?

[Olivia sighs]

If you can't decide

on the dispositionof the house,

you're going to have topay your lawyers more money,

and spend days in court

fighting each other.

It's costly,and it's not necessary.

You've already amicably splitall other assets.

It won't be costly.

A trial is always expensive.

I'm sure

that if you two speakwith your attorneys,

that they will agreethe best thing for both of you--

It was us.

What?

I'm a lawyer.

So am I, Your Honor.

Hi.

I've been thinking.

[sighs heavily]

Look, there's somethingthat I need to say.

Okay.

Moving in togetherwould be a mistake.

I got aheadof myself,

and, uh...

we're just not ready.

And maybewe won't ever be ready,

and that's fine, too.

I'm sorry we fought.

I just was feeling cornered.

Exactly.

From now on,we'll just spend time together,

or not.

We'll justlet things unfold.

No pressure.

Okay?

Okay.

I just want tomake sure

that you knowhow sorry I am for everything.

I wish thatI could undo it,

but I can't.

All right.

[sighs]

I sure hope there'sgoing to be enough room

at the marina.

I sent outso many e-mails.

I'm sure you'll be ableto squeeze everyone in.

You do know

that the photo'sbeing taken at sunset.

John knows that, right?

Becausehe's always late.

He'll be there.

So, have you given,you know, any more thought

as to what kind of menuyou're going to have?

The Galley,

when you and Johntake over.

Um, Mom...

Our investor backed out.

So, what doesthat mean?

We can't buy The Galley.

But you're not going toleave Cedar Cove?

I'm sure that's whatJohn wants to do.

Honey, no!

I can talk to John.

No. Don't.

Please don'ttalk to John.

We'll find anotherinvestor, really.

Mom, let's not talkabout this, okay?

Okay.

Thank you.

[brisk knock]

I saw your divorcinglawyers in the hall.

They seem fun.

Definitely erringon the side of ugly.

But no doubt you'll steer them

towardsa quick resolution.

They don't want one.

They do.They hate each other.

Thin line, right?

True, true,

but they don't want tobe together,

so I just say, you know,

cool down and play ball.

No, she wants to hate him,

which means,he hurt her.

Which is why they're gettingdivorced, right?

It's not that simple,

no divorce is.

It's notabout the house.

Then what's it about?

I don't know,

but I'm going to find out.

Oh...

a little Sherlockunder the robes, huh?

Every good judgeis part detective.

Well, you are better than good.

Um...

Uh, by the way, Peggy called me.

Yeah, I just got a roomat the Thyme and Tide.

Peggy and Bob are so sweet.

Peggy, yeah.

Okay, Bob can bea little gruff,

but underneath, he is justa big teddy bear.

Yeah, he seems likesuch a nice guy,

who wants me to leave.

The Thyme & Tide?

No, Cedar Cove, I think.

I don't know, he spenta lot of time

talking about you.

Me?

Yeah. And Jack.

Oh.

We're, um--we're taking a break,

or, uh,stepping back...

Actually, I'm not surewhat we're doing.

We were talking aboutmoving in together,

and now we're not.

It's complicated.

All relationships are.

I would literally pay youto change the subject.

I'll do it for free.

[gasps dramatically]

Want to talk about arson?

[laughs]

So much so.

[laughing]

Well...

voila.

What do you think?

When we metthe other day,

I told you that I wanted to buya house to flip,

like an investmentproperty.

No, I understand that, Will,

but I don't do that kindof real estate.

I'm a developer.

It's more money to be madeall around.

[sighs] I don't know.

Okay, come on, look,if you can flip a house,

you can develop a piece of land.

I had a friend of mineon the county board

who tells methis property right here

is being zoned for multi-units.

So, how muchare we talking about?

Gotta spend moneyto make money, my friend.

[inhales] Hmm.

I'll givemy business manager a call.

[chuckling] Okay.

[sighing with satisfaction]

So...

I, uh, heardyou dumped Seth.

No, I dumped you.

Seth and I broke up.

Right.

Well, it's nice to seeyou change your careers

as often as you change your men.

It's consistent,but it's sporadic,

which is hardto achieve,

but kudos to you.

Didn't change some of themfast enough.

[chuckles]

Well, looking forwardto working with you.

You're working with my uncle,not with me.

You know, you're right.

You are working for him,

and he's working with me,

so you see how that'sa nice happy coincidence?

William!

[Will]: ...okay, good,talk to you soon. Bye.

I really appreciateyou meeting with me, Peggy.

I didn't know who else to call.

Of course.

I want to tell you something,

but I'm afraid

it'll change the wayyou feel about me,

about Corrie and me.

Roy, I love you both,

so that's never gonna change.

And I know,

whatever it is, it's beeneating at Corrie, too,

so anything I can do to help,I'm here.

You know most of this,I'm sure,

but, um, Corrie and Ibroke up for a while

while we were young.

Yeah, I remember.

I didn't know it at the time,but she was pregnant.

And she put the baby--

our baby--

up for adoption.

I didn't know about ituntil years later

until it was, uh,

it was too late.

Well, you can't blameCorrie for that.

She was doing whatshe thought was right

at the time.

I'm not blaminganybody, I just...

I just want to try and makethings right, that's all.

But Corrie won't let me.

[sighs]

Let me see what I can do.

Thanks.

Packing up?

Warren.

Hey, Dad.

Listen, I got a littlesurprise for you.

Does this surprise haveanything to do

with Alex losingher broker's license

and getting fired?

Or do you havesome other surprise for me?

She told you?

I knew before I hired her.

It's called due diligence.

And you still want her here?

Trouble with the law

hasn't stopped youfrom working here.

Look, your childish attitudetoward Alex

is hurting this company.

My company.

Something's gotta give, son.

Or maybe someone's gotta go.

That is definitely an option,

but it's not gonna be Alex.

Okay. Fine.

I quit.

I know this town,

and you don't.

And I'm going togo out there,

I'm gonna startmy own business,

and when I do, I'm going to doeverything in my power

to drive the you bothright out of Cedar Cove.

You understand me?

Dad.

-Alex?-Yes?

Have the locks changed.

Hey.

Wow...

smell of baitis a real turn-on, is it?

[chuckles]

I just missed you.

I'm not complaining.

How was your first daywith your uncle?

Uneasy.

Well, let me seeif I can make it better.

I've been stood up.

By an entire town.

-[Grace]: Where were you?-[Olivia]: When?

Yesterday?The town photo?

I'm sorry, I had court.

I sent you an e-mail.

I couldn't have been missed,

I'm only one person.

Only a handfulof people showed up.

Everybody I know hadsome kind of an excuse,

and the ones I don't knowdidn't show up either.

It was supposed to be so simple.

I'm sorry.

Well, fortunatelyfor you

and our friendship,

I'm rescheduling.

I'll be there.

I promise.

Well, you seem better,

not great, but better.

-What's going on?-With Jack?

No, the economy.

Yes, Jack.

He said that we should, um...

"hang out,"

and take the pressureoff of both of us.

Well, that's good.It sounds like he's trying.

You did say you wanted himto back off.

Yeah, back off living together,

not back off in general.

Hmm.

Might be a littletoo nuanced for a guy.

[chuckles]

So, I've been thinking,

and talking to Peggy.

I think that we shouldsend our information

to the agency,

and if she stillwants to meet with us,

then we'll justtake it from there.

[chuckles]

Why are you laughing?

I'm just relieved,I guess.

I sent itin a few days ago.

I knew you'dcome around.

I hoped you would.

Really?

Mm-hmm.

I know you pretty well,

and I knew this iswhat you wanted.

You want to meetyour daughter.

I'm scared.

Just likeeverything else,

we're in it together.

Don't forget that.

Hey, Bob,I'm glad you're here,

because I need you.

We need risers

No, you don't.

Oh, yes, we do,

because we needto make sure

everybody gets seen.

Mm-hmm, and they won't be seen.

That e-mail blastof yours,

somebody reported youto the county,

the county sent outtheir own blast,

putting the kiboshon the whole thing.

That's why no one showed.

But why would somebody do that?

Well, officially,an event this large,

you need a permit.

You didn't tell mewe needed a permit--

You didn't tell me

you were going to do thisbefore you did it.

I thought you mightget away with it.

Okay, fine, you knowwhat we're gonna do,

we will go outand get this permit

and we will reschedule.

All right,when do you want to do that,

next summer or next fall?

They've issuedall the permits

for this summer already.

So, no picture.

No.

No Seattle Living AM?

No.

Then I failed, Bob!

No...

Yes, I did.

It was my first big testas Town Manager,

and I just failed!

Grace...

you didn't lead us into war.

Settle down.

This will all work out.

No, it won't.

I reallydon't think so.

Is it too lateto get Norman back?

Yes.

[knocks]

Okay, it's officially a record.

I have never seen this manywitnesses being called

for a divorce case.

Their banker?

To testify who madethe down payment.

Oh, of course.

Their realtor?

To testify who found the house.

I should have got that one.

Their gardener and housekeepers.

To prove who took careof the house.

Want to go to final Jeopardywhere the score really adds up?

No.No, I don't.

They have filed motionon top of motion.

[scoffs] Lawyers.

I am serious!

It's an abuse of court.

Well, you can blockall extraneous motions.

I thought about that,

but then I realizedthere's something missing.

A motion?

A witness.

Nice job, Sherlock.

[knock on door]

This was left for youat the front.

Oh, you order in?

No, I didn't.

Oh. What is it?

Ah, it's beef and broccoli.

There's no beef.

Jack eats the beef,

I eat the broccoli.

If Jack's here,why didn't he come in?

He's giving me space.

Good times?

A lot of them.

Well then,there's a lot to save.

Yes. There is.

[laughs]

All dressed upand nowhere to go.

Buck told me.

Buck told you?

Yeah, at breakfast.

You had breakfastwith my father?

Just about every day, yeah.

He is good people.

Okay, Moon, look,

I'm good person, too, you know.

[chuckles ruefully]Not so good.

Actually, uh,

not good at all.

Okay, you knowwhat, enough.

You know, I'm done with Saget,

done with my father.

I am going out on my own, Moon,

and I've got big plans.

Well, I hope your planstake you really far, Warren.

Seriously.

Far... far away.

Like maybe a state or two away.

I wouldn't give my fatherthe satisfaction.

[chuckles]

This has all the makingsof a Greek tragedy.

You and your father,

reason why I don't need cable.

Okay, Grace,I'll call you later.

Aw, Graceis pretty upset

about not being ableto do this town photo.

I just feel horrible.

Well, it's notyour fault.

I didn't askif she had a permit,

I just assumed she did.

I just don't thinkit's going to happen.

There's not muchyou can do.

I could callthe county clerk,

but they'repretty strict.

Why don't we gofor a drink?

Take your mindoff of it.

You can talk aboutanyone, anything--

Grace, Jack--

it won't goany further.

Attorney-clientprivilege.

You're not my attorney.

Give me a dollar.

You want me togive you a dollar?

I want you togive me a dollar.

There.

You have now securedmy legal services.

Now anything you saycannot be divulged.

Well, what ifI don't want to talk?

I do some ofmy best work in silence.

Okay, one--one drink.

One drink.

So, this seems likea good fit.

You need the cash,I need a tax shelter.

Yeah.

We need totalk to the bank.

I could financethe whole thing.

Cut the bankright out of it,

save the fees.

That'd be great.

Of course,I would need

a bigger percentageof the profits.

Control of the books.

I'd need to bring a fewof my key people in,

you know,to protect my investment.

Yeah.

Maryellen?

Oh, I think, um...

John and I need to talk.

Alone.

Yeah.

I'll be in touch.

Bye.

[♪]

Jack, I know what's going onwith you two.

I'm concerned about Mom.

Justine, she is one ofthe strongest people I know.

She's tough, but she's not,you know?

She needs you to fight for her.

[sighs]

Sometimes even strong people

need a pushin the right direction.

Well, you know,I tried pushing,

and that backfired on me.

She loves you.

She misses you,I can tell.

If you want her in your life,

I'm telling you,you need to fight for her,

and you need to do it now.

You've been busy.

You've ruined my credit,

managed to bad-mouth meto any possible new partners,

which has made itvirtually impossible

for me to start over.

Mm-hmm.

Are you ready to come back?

I don't like her.

Nah, you just haven'tfigured out how to play her.

There's a difference.

Alex is a part of this company.

Dad, I really don't thinkI can work with her.

Your new company credit card.

It's all yours,

if you promiseto play nice.

Your Honor, may I askwhat this meeting's about?

I couldn't helpbut notice

that you had everyoneon your witness list

except your contractor.

You listedyour housekeeper,

but not the person

who did major renovationson your home,

and I found thata little odd.

Well, neither of us feltit was important.

Did you have a relationship withJennifer Carter,

your contractor?

He had an affair.

One bad decision.

It was one act, one night.

I regretted it then,and I regret it now,

but she just can't let it goand move forward.

We tried couples' therapy.

We tried relationship retreats.

If you two really wanteda divorce,

you would already be divorced,

instead of using this houseto stay connected.

And clog upmy docket.

Go back to therapy.

You may surprise yourself.

Or I could hold you bothin contempt,

lock youin a cell together

until you startacting like adults.

And I can, you know.

[bangs gavel]

Bye-bye.

I don't feelcomfortable with Jimmy.

I'm sorry, I say noto borrowing money from him.

I agree.

Yeah?

I don't want toget into business

with any moreshady people.

Then why would you?

To make you happy.

Us. Us happy.

I'm happy in New York.

You aren't.I get it.

What I love, you don't.

I love it here.

My life isn't here.

"My? My?"

What about "us", huh?

What about me?

It's not just about you,it's about us.

It's always been about us.

No, not since we moved away.

[scoffs] Motorcycle.

What are you talking about?

There's always one guywho thinks he's all that,

and that guy?

Is that guy.

Hey.

Hey!

Um, I've decided to stay on.

Really?

-Yeah, month-to-month, okay?-Yes.

Great.

Great!Uh, dinner, 7:00? Kitchen?

Mm-hmm.

You can alwayseat in your room.

And miss your company?Never.

I'm making sconesfor breakfast.

Will you take some tothe courthouse for Olivia?

Absolutely.I love your scones.

Aw.

And I love those clogs.

It takes a big manto wear that shade.

If you keep feeding him,he'll never leave.

Bob...

I have to go hammer something.

I want a new pairof gardening shoes.

Black.

Mom, I don't want to goback to New York.

This is my home.

I've missed it.

I've missed you.

Aw, sweetie.

I've missed you, too.

But for what it's worth,

I have learned some thingsover the years.

One person,

you never have to compromise.

Two people,you have to compromise.

It's just math.

But if you'rein the right relationship,

a compromise never feelslike a compromise.

[chuckles fondly]

Thanks, Mom.

Hey there.

What can I get you for?

I'd love an iced tea.

How muchdo I owe you?

[stammering] Actually, uh,it's on the house.

Just a little courtesy we extendto our men and women in blue.

Well, that's kind of you.

So, uh...

you here on...

business or for pleasure?

I just moved here.

Oh, you havefamily here.

No, I don't know anybody.

I decided to give

small town lifea try.

Oh, well, you have chosenthe best small town there is.

Welcome, uh...?

-Gloria.-Gloria.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Moon.

I'll get your tea.

Bob!

I'm here.

What do you wantto talk to me about?

Well, actually, uh,it's about Peggy.

She feels pretty bad

about this wholetown photo thing.

No, it's my fault.

It was just too biga project to start with.

Yeah, I wouldn'tquite say that.

[gasping in delight]

[laughs]

[♪]

Bob, how did youmake this happen?

Well, a little birdnamed Olivia

let me inon a loophole.

You only needa permit

for organized activities.

Nothing says thatthe town can't get together,

at the same time,

and if someone happensto take a picture,

well, you don't need a permit

for a spontaneous momentcaptured on film.

[laughs]

But you got everyoneto show up.

Peggy activated

the communityphone tree.

We have a phone tree?

We do now.

She got everybody in townto call each other.

Low-tech beats high-tech.

[chuckling]

So...

Guess I'll justleave quietly, right?

Make sure you lock up.

Alex and I are going overfor the town picture.

You're kidding me,right?

When have you ever been intothat cornball Mayberry stuff?

In a town like this,

an event like thatis public relations gold.

I tell you what,

if I see youat the town photo,

I'll accept itas an apology,

and then I'll see youbright and early tomorrow,

here.

That's as easyas I'm going to make it

for youto come back, kid.

Consider itan early birthday present.

[battery whining]

I hate this.

I know. Me too.

I should go back with you.

No.

No, I get it,

you don't like New York.

I'm going to go back,

and I'll get us an investor.

I can do that.

You believe me, right?

I do.

My leavingis just temporary.

I know.

You belong here,

I belong with you.

It's just going to takesome time to set that up.

You'll wait?

I will.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Now, let's get youin your best light.

[chuckling and muttering]

It's calledthe Jerry Garcia look.

Hey, Moon.

I don't believe it.

What?

So...

you decided to come.

Well, How could I missa family photo, Dad?

I'm going back eastfor a week or two.

So, this will be a test run

to see if things go smoothly

while I'mout of the office.

We'll get alongjust fine, don't worry.

Card, please.

Great, now things can getback to normal around here--

I'm putting Alexin charge.

First rule of business,nothing is free.

Yeah, Dad,that sounds like

the first ruleof being your son.

[chuckles]

Justine...

Who's that?

Warren Saget.

Oh, how do youknow him?

Saget Developments?

Oh, is that the guyyour Uncle Will's

going to begoing into business with?

Warren and Will?

Cliff?

I thought you wereat the auction.

I drove all night.

Aw...

I couldn't missyour first official act

as Town Manager.

Hi.

Hey.

Oh, boy,here comes trouble.

Hi, Bob!

Paul.

What do you say

we move you over here,away from Olivia?

For balance, huh?

Great.

Hi.

Hey there.

Can we talkfor a moment?

It's important.

All right.

Look, um...

There are a million reasonswhy we shouldn't be together.

My struggle with sobriety is...

not something that's going away.

It's something I'm going tohave to live with

for the rest of my life.

And if we end up togetherthe way that I want us to,

it's something you're going tohave to live with, too.

I know.

But...

I think we...

we need to go back

before we go forward,

and it's not justwhat happened recently

that makes me feel that way.

I don't understand.

We got together so fast.

Well, love at first sight,right?

Yes, I know,

but love has never beenour problem.

Hmm, so, what is?

We need more than loveto fall back on.

We do?

Yes.

Let's take our time,

and reallyget to know each other.

Let's go slow.

Slow, fast, medium,I don't care...

as long as I have youback in my life.

You got me.

Oh, hey, I'm Alex.

I, uh...Paul Watson.

-Nice to meet you.-Nice to meet you, too.

Places! Places, everyone!

Oh, wait.Just wait!

I have great news.

You're going into businesswith Warren Saget?

Yup.

Real estate development.

-Really?-Yes.

Starting with Mom's.

She said she would call you,

decided to stay at the Cape.

She's giving us the house.

We're going tomake a fortune.

That is one amazingtown photo.

John is a great photographer.

You can't even tellthat I want to strangle Will.

We both know you can'ttake a bad picture.

You evenmade braces look good.

Not true,but thank you.

Oh, that is a reallygreat picture of Warren.

Yeah, great pictureof a not so great man.

True.

Oh, look at you,

you're practically glowing.

I'm practically engaged.

I just can't believe

that people put asidewhatever drama they had

just to show upfor this photo.

Well, that's Cedar Cove.

Mm, it's the best townin America.
