* Here comes my baby *

[VO] Grandma Hannah
always said,

all it takes is just one moment

to change everything.

For Grandma Hannah
and Grandpa Charlie,

that moment happened the day
they first saw

the Inn at Apple Hill.

*

They worked day and night

Creating magical moments,
not only for their guests...

-Your husband let's you
carry this around?
-I can do it.

...but for each other.

Their son, my father,
grew up at Apple Hill.

And after he I was born,
the inn remained

a constant presence
in our lives.

Oh, she's gorgeous.

Apple Hill was a place

where I could be anyone,
do anything.

All under the watchful eyes
of my loving grandparents.

All it takes is just one moment
to change everything.

Even moments beyond
your control.

After grandma and
grandpa passed,

I couldn't let that moment
happen without taking action.

After all, what was the value
of my grandparents' efforts

if I didn't step in to keep
their magic alive?

And it wasn't too long after
securing the purchase

of Apple Hill that I found
myself signing

a different set of papers.

Then it's settled.

Mr. Jones will assume ownership
of the cabin,

and Mrs. Jones will take--

Ms. Jacobs.

Ms. Jacobs will take full
ownership of Inn at Apple Hill.

There's one liability
I'm happy to say goodbye to.

You never took even one moment
to understand why

Apple Hill's so important
to me.

[VO] Unlike Trent's lack
of confidence in Apple Hill,

I knew it just needed some LC
to bring it back to life,

and I was up for the challenge!

* ...touch the sky *

* Now's the time to spread
our wings *

* and fly *

* into the great wild world *

Hi! I've been handing out
umbrellas 'cause it's raining.

So I just wanted to...

[water dripping]

Let me move you
to another table.

I'm sure we can just--

[VO] There were some unforeseen
issues along the way...

I will get it fixed as soon
as I possibly can.

I'm so sorry. Um...

Okay.

We have a blender
and a microwave.

And I'm sure we could... no.

Oh, Steve. Please.

But there were some wins too.

On behalf of all of us
at Inn at Apple Hill,

we're honored to be named a
Landover historic destination.

[applause]

[VO] ...short lived as they
might be.

We're working on the...

Thanks, guys.

[serene music]

These electrical changes
will allow us to open

three additional rooms.

So you're not at
full occupancy?

[chuckles]

There are not enough extension
cords in the world.

[chuckles nervously]

These changes will allow us
to be at full capacity.

And you think this will be
as good as the day

that Charlie and Hannah first
opened their doors?

That's the plan.

But you know, um...

hard times came to Charlie
and Hannah as well.

They had to defer a lot of
maintenance just to get by.

Ugh... I am painfully aware
of that.

But you have to start
somewhere, Ted.

And this is what they
would've wanted.

They would've wanted you
to run an inn

that's hanging by a thread...
on your own?

I'm doing this to pick up

where my grandma and grandpa
left off.

A lot of the larger hoteliers
are partnering up

with the boutique inns.

A scout from Heston Hotels
came last week,

and it's like they smelled
blood in the water.

Well, partnering with them
would help buffer Apple Hill

from the slower months.
-Ted...

It would help pay for
unanticipated expenses.

I would become an employee
at my own business.

Elise, I can't approve a loan.

Not without a 15 percent
gross profit.

Then I will get there.

Look...

that sounds great,
but if your grandparents

were here right now, they would
say the same thing.

What you want, all this...

it's just not realistic.
I'm sorry.

I know I said 12:00, but you
know I'd always say,

if you are on time,
you are, in fact, late.

Lighten up. It's a joke, Adam.

Hello? Adam?

Hello?

-No, thank you.
-We have no reception.

Not during our lunch date.

Uh... I was told this was
a business meeting.

Unfortunately, son,
it's the only way

I could get you to commit.

It's time for us to celebrate.

I'm gonna stick with my regular
double espresso.

I have a big day today.

Oh, please. You just completed
Bellwether's acquisition

of Starfield Hotels, you can
kick up your feet a little.

Now, sit.

Please.

Is that coming from the CEO
or my mother?

Whichever one you're most
likely to listen to.

Cheers, darling.

Cheers.

By the way, I gave my team
90 days to submit

the new financial
to Bellwether's model.

Is that realistic?

I'm the CFO of course
it's realistic.

No wonder I've been fielding
calls from your entire team.

They're excited, right?

What they are, Luke,
is exhausted.

I've been hearing they worked
weekends, even overnights,

to close this deal.

It's not uncommon for
an acquisition of this size.

And by the way, I didn't force
anyone to do any of this.

You didn't have to.

Honey, you've been
at the office

morning, noon, and night.

When you do that, people think
they can't go home

and enjoy their lives.

[phone alert chimes]

[phone alert chimes]

What is happening?

[phone alert chimes]

Replies to a very,
very, very important email

I sent during their
lunch break.

Oh, Luke.

Come on.

Do not make me count to 10.

Don't count to 10.

I will do it. One...

Two. Three. Four.

Is that Antonio Banderas?

Are you--

Just one second.

Oh, no, you didn't.

Desperate times call for
desperate measures, Mom.

I couldn't agree more.

Leanne?

Do it.

Thank you.

[phone alert]

What did you do?

I deactivated your account.

Undo it. Undo it.

It's time for you to go
on vacation.

I don't want to go
on a vacation.

Listen to me.

Maybe not, but your team
needs a vacation from you.

So, for the next two weeks,
your access to the office

will be suspended.

I'm sorry.

Suspended?

Yes.

I don't want to be suspended.
I want to do this, just please.

Oh honey, I love you.

But if you even
so much as attempt

to log in, you're fired.

I don't know about you,
but I'm starving.

[pleasant music]

So close.

[groans]

Oops.

[pleasant music]

Thank you, again.

[phone rings]

Landover Tavern.

Jared, it's Luke.
Is this a good time?

Luke! Of course
it's a good time.

What's going on, man?

Just seeing what you're up to.

Hey, hon. It's Luke.

[gasps] Luke? Ooh!
Ooh, put him on video.

Put him on video!

No, no, it's, um...

Hi!

Hey.

[in unison] Oh...

Oh. Are you okay?

Um... no, I'm... I'm great.

No, you don't look
yourself, man.

-You look a little, um...
-Like, um... unkempt.

Yeah.

I'm not unkempt.

I'm taking a few weeks off.
Little vacation.

Sorry. time off?

-You don't take vacation.
-Mm-mm.

I do now.

Blink twice if you're
in danger.

Look, Candace.

Right now I'm looking at
a photo of us three

from what I think was
the opening of The Tavern.

Aww.

I think we're about due
for a trip.

Well, would telling you
that photo was taken

over two years ago
help get you down here?

That was two years ago?

It's been three,
but who's counting?

But seriously, you should
come down here

and see all the changes
we've made around here.

[Candace]
Yeah, yeah, yeah! Yes!

I can't wait.

Well, obviously
you're gonna stay with us

'cause we got a whole bedroom
for you upstairs.

'Luke's Room'.

Well, Candace, Luke
is a creature of habit, so.

I do apologize, Candace.
But, uh...

a trip to Landover would
not be complete

without a stay
at the Apple Hill.

[peaceful music]

...Does this say... Archibald?

Anderson.

Nope.

Underwood. It says Underwood.

That's your final answer?

Mm-hmm.

You know, we wouldn't
go through this each day

if we computerized.

Yeah, but then we'd lose
our charm.

I thought one of the reasons
you hired me was to bring

Apple Hill's reservation
system into the, you know,
20th century.

I think you mean 21st century.

No, I definitely mean 20th.

[chuckles softly]

Do you mind keeping an eye
on things for a while?

Yeah, of course.
I will just finish

the guest notes for tonight.

Thank you.

-You know, if I can read them.
-Okay.

Oh. Remember, there's
a leak in room 11,

so it's out of commission.

Got it.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Okay, let's see...

reservation system.

Candace still helps out at
the tavern every now and then,

but these days, she's just
killing it in real estate.

That's great, man.

You guys are hitting
your goals.

Yeah, well, we owe a lot
of that to you.

You don't owe anything to me.

I invested because you guys
are crazy talented.

Yeah, well, both might be true.

What happened to Rusty's? What?

Yeah. Shut down after he
retired a couple years back.

Are you serious?

Mm-hmm.

Oh, man.

I used to dominate Space Barge
in here.

Excuse me?

I do believe I beat you
my fair share of times.

You can't be serious.

Oh, I am dead serious.

You know, they have
the original game

over at Tony's Pizza.

Rematch?

Please say now.

Right now.

Right here.

[phone rings] Oh, wait,
wait, wait.

[chuckles]

Yeah. Hi.

Alright. I'll, uh...
I'll see you soon.

That's convenient.

Yeah... super convenient.

It's gonna have to be
a raincheck.

Get outta here.

[sighs]

Yeah.

Welcome home.

[pleasant music]

Excuse me.

Do you know what happened
to the high school

that used to be here?

They built a new one
outside of town.

Brand new building.

So they just tore
all this down?

And built this beautiful park.

Thank you.

[pleasant music]

Hey, Elise.

Hey, Tony.

My usual.

Ooh. That bad of a day?

Ugh. I don't even wanna
talk about it.

Well, you might have
to wait a bit.

He's been playing
for 30 minutes now.

But I do have the same game
online if you're interested.

It's not the same.

I'll just wait.

Sounds good.

Maybe I'll just see how long
he's gonna be.

Sounds good.

Excuse me.

Can I help you?

Yes, actually.

There are other people waiting
to play the game.

Me. [chuckles]

[chuckles] Uh... well...
we could play two player.

Oh, no.
I play alone.

It's sort of my form
of meditation.

Well, I can already tell you
seem like the type of person

that needs to zen out.

Says the guy wearing
sunglasses indoors.

What?

No, that cannot be your score.

It can, and it is.

Not today. Excuse me.

You've obviously been playing
long enough.

-What are you doing?
-What are you doing?!

Who does that?

I came over and I asked you
if I could play.

You know what?

Excuse me.

There. There!

[game beeping]

[video game] New top score!

[applause]

Oh!

[applause]

But that's my game.

Well done.

Thank you, sir.

Did you want a slice to go?

Bye, Tony.

Bye.

I take it that was Elise.

That was Elise.

And just like that,
he took my top score.

Well, luckily it is just game.

But I... I get it.

This guy, he seems
like trouble.

Yeah, and he could've been
a Trent clone.

He was rude and arrogant
and way out of line.

Okay. Do you wanna discuss

the arriving guests
tonight, or...?

Good idea.

Great. So, I'm thinking...

what if we looked at this
information on a tablet?

Instead of sorting through
these 20 guest files.

Oh, but, Nora, the tactile feel
of paper, though.

What's this?

Uh... solo guest.

Lucas Bellwether.

Bellwether, as in
Bellwether Holdings.

The hotel group?

Nora, look at your iPad.
Look him up.

Okay. Bellwether.

Okay. Right here, right here.

Uh... as Bellwether Holdings'
CFO, Lucas Bellwether

has increased profits and
helped to facilitate funding

to add several regional chains
to their portfolio.

Mm-hmm.

First, Heston Hotels
comes sniffing around,

and now Bellwether Holdings.

No.

No. He's not gonna stay here.

That's it.

Hi. Checking in.

Hi.

You must be Mr. Bellwether.

Welcome to Apple Hill.

Thank you.

Nice to see you again.

Former champion of Space Barge.

[chuckles]

Just for the record,
I did have a higher score,

but there was a blackout
at Tony's Pizza

and it deleted all the
information from the game. So...

That's convenient that
that actually doesn't exist.

[laughs]

It says here that you want
down alternative pillows

and laundry service?

If that's fine, or just a
simple ironing would be great.

I'm sorry, we can't provide
any of that.

You know what?

That must be disappointing
for you, so, I can go ahead

and call other hotels
in the area and see if maybe--

No, that'll be fine.

I need to stay here.

And...

we would love to have you.

Also, you know, the WiFi
is down and...

Good thing I'm supposed
to be on vacation.

Now, how does a check-in work?

Is it a key card, app...?

No, no, we use actual keys.

Adorable.

Like Bates Motel.

Let's give Mr. Bellwether
room 11.

No, we can't use--

Nora, let's give him 11.

That's great.

And you know what?

Grab him a welcome basket
while you're there.

Oh, too kind.

Everyone gets one.

There you are. It's just
up those stairs.

You'll see it.

Thank you.

Mm-hmm.

I am so confused.

Didn't you say that we
could not rent out room 11?

I did say that.

If he insists on staying here...

I'm gonna give him the worst
week of his life.

How is there no reception?
None?

[phone chimes]

[exhales]

[door creaking]

[mischievous music]

[notification alert]

[dial tone]

[dialing]

[Luke's mother] He will return
in two weeks.

But in the meantime, I'll be
canceling all meetings,

and your deadlines will be
extended until Luke's return.

No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait.
You can't do that.

[Luke's mother] Sorry?
Did someone have a question?

[hangs up]

[call ends]

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

[water dripping]

No way.

[serene music]

Can I help you?

My phone doesn't seem
to be working.

Oh, that one's on the fritz.

Along with leaking pipes,
busted door handles,

and loose outlets. I would like
to switch rooms, please.

I'm sorry, that's
the only one available.

I'd like to speak with
the owner, then.

You have been speaking
with the owner.

Oh, so you are the one
intentionally running

this place in the ground.

Mr.--

Mr. Bellwether, I told you
about our limitations

when you checked in.
We're not for everybody.

So, if you would like to stay
somewhere else,

I will gladly refund
your money.

That is so incredibly sad,
because this place has

so much potential, if you would
just give a little more effort.

We just became a Landover
historic destination.

And last month, I received
a hospitality award

from the Innkeepers Guild.

You just made that up.

No. They're--

Do you wanna see my plaques?

Did you buy them
on the Internet?

You don't buy plaques on the...

No, I didn't buy them
on the Internet!

[phone ringing]

Donna Bellwether's office.

Leanne, this is Luke.
Is my mom around?

Luke, I'm under very
strict orders.

This is urgent.
Can you please get her?

[sighs] I can pass
the word along,

but she is busy
at the moment, Luke.

Doing what?

If you must know, she's
surprising the finance team

with an overnight stay
at Canyon Post Spa.

So, instead of them
meeting deadlines,

she's taking them
to get massages?

Yeah, and you know what?

They're pretty excited
about it.

... massages instead
of work!

[car engine rumbles]

[serene music]

I think we are all set
for tomorrow.

You know, I think this is
the inn's 67th apple harvest.

That is a lot of apples.

Mm-hmm... and a lot of memories.

Mmhmm.

It's one of those days
that makes me feel like

my grandma and grandpa
are still here.

Well they definitely are.

And that is thanks
to you, Elise.

The question is, what now?

Well, we still have a decent
amount of occupancy

for the rest of October.

Decent is not gonna cut it
if we're gonna get to

that 15 percent profit
the bank needs to see.

And, um...

what happens if we don't
hit that number?

We have light!

Ta-da.

For now.

Chuck. Hi.

I didn't know that
you were here.

Oh, just don't tell my boss,
it's after hours.

Oh, I can't thank you enough.

Well, it's only temporary.

For how long? I don't know.

Um... can we get you dinner?

I mean, for your hard work,
for your--

-I have a sandwich
in the truck.
-Yeah.

Hey, what do I owe you?

This one's on me.

But, uh... I mean it.

Elise, you need
an upgraded panel.

The sooner the better.

Okay. Yeah.

Thank you, Chuck.

Bye, Chuck.

Did he say bye back?

No.

[laughs] Oh...

So, uh... Chuck, huh?

-What?
-What?

What? No.

-Chuck?
-I don't know.

No. [laughs nervously]

You seemed pretty excited
to give him something to eat.

Well, 'cause I like to
feed people.

[peaceful music]

So... how was that walk
down memory lane?

So much has changed.

Everything feels super
small too.

Well, you have been living
in New York.

No, no. I mean, um...
for instance,

our high school disappeared.
When did that happen?

Yeah, that one...
that was tough.

I've seen a lot of places come
and go, but that one was hard.

I wonder if our old hockey
photo's in the new school.

-I doubt it.
-Yeah.

But I do have a photo for you.

-Sit tight.
-Okay.

That is a photo.

Come on.

[both laugh]

-Right?
-Are you serious?

Yeah.

Look at us!
Look at those fangs!

Intimidating vampires,
those guys are not.

Okay, don't let seven-year-old
me hear you say that.

That's great.

Yeah. You were a terror.

I was? What happened to you?

[laughs] I don't know.

Oh, Halloween at Apple Hill.

Mm-hmm.

So cute.

Apple Hill. Even that place
has changed.

I mean, I get there,
my doorknob falls off,

the phones don't work,
the sink's leaking,

and the woman who's running it,
Elise,

she shouldn't even be
in hospitality.

Like, what is happening?

Well, Elise is pretty much
the only reason

that Apple Hill is still going.

Yeah, she took over after
her grandparents passed.

-Mmhmm.

Is this the same Elise
from high school?

Elise Jacobs? Yeah.

Same one.

That's even worse.
I remember her grandparents.

They would be furious if they
knew the condition it was in.

I'm sorry. I don't mean to...

I get it. I get it.

Apple Hill was a special place
for you and your mom.

And just think about it.
If it weren't for Apple Hill

inspiring your mom
to stay here...

then we wouldn't be friends.

It's true.

-And I'm awesome.
-Hey! We're awesome.

We're awesome.

You know, I'm actually
really surprised

at how much it's changed.

Everybody raves about how
thoughtful Elise is, and...

she's always been
so great with us.

Yeah, it's true.

[taps fingers]

Why not me?

How are we doing for
ticket sales for tomorrow?

Uh... you mean for
the orchard harvest?

No. For the other event we're
selling tickets to tomorrow.

[both laugh]

Yes, for the harvest.

Okay. One moment.

What?

Nora, what's the number?

18.

I've never been that low.

18.

Shoot.

Now it's at 15 'cause we just
got a cancellation.

15.

But...

I am sure that we will have
a lot of walk-ins

and people driving by.

I, um...

I asked earlier as an employee.

But now I need to ask
as a friend.

How long can we go
without a loan?

As a friend...

I'm not sure we'll make it
past October.

Especially if the event
tomorrow's a flop.

It's late, we should
call it a night.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night.

[hammering sound]

[hammering continues]

[knocking]

Excuse me. Hey!

Excuse me.

I didn't need housekeeping.

Oh, that's so funny.
What are you doing?

I am fixing what you are
unwilling to.

It is almost midnight.
People are sleeping.

Well, I'm done for now.

No, you're done for good.

I didn't give you permission
to do anything.

I would be more than happy
to undo all of my handiwork...

once I leave.

Which cannot come soon enough.

I figured you might say that.

But I paid for this room
fair and square.

So, until I check out...

you're stuck with me.

I could use some
clean towels, though.

[alarm chimes]

[water running]

Oh, come on!

Perfect. We'll see you at noon.

Okay. Bye.

Got three more.

See? I knew we'd have
last-minute joiners.

Phew.

I can't tell you how--

It's too bad I didn't have
any fresh towels.

But I did manage to dry off
with three bedsheets.

I'll give you that right there.

Actually, that's
kind of genius.

Ooh, scones!
I'd love one, please.

Yeah, great.

Yeah. And also put me down
for apple picking,

unless you managed
to mess that up too.

Oh... no. Nuh-uh.

I should mention that apple
picking takes actual work.

Well, I'm good with work,
as you know per last night.

What he's referring to
is the fact that

in the middle of the night,
he decided to change

a door handle
without my permission.

Fixed the door handle.
Also the phone jack,

the electrical outlet,
and a leaky sink.

But... I digress.

What's the WiFi?

-Apple pie is--
-We don't give that out--

Apple pie...?

Lower... lowercase?

Mm-hmm.

Great.

Thank you, Nora.

Um...

he repaired his room?

Yeah, apparently.

Too bad he can't fix
all of them.

[scoffs]

That would increase occupancy.

Actually...

maybe he can.

[peaceful music]

[whistling]

[tablet beeps]

[tablet beeps]

[phone ringing]

Mother.

I have changed my username
and password,

and if you try to log
into that portal again,

don't think I won't
press charges!

[chuckles] Oh, you wouldn't.

No, I wouldn't,
but I want to.

I was so hoping that you
would be staying

some place without Internet.

I practically am,
I'm at Apple Hill.

Oh, we had good times
there, kiddo.

Yeah. Yeah, we did.

But Landover has changed
so much, I mean...

so many places are gone
and everywhere else

I just don't even recognize.

Hmm. A word of advice
from your mom?

[sighs] Go ahead.

Landover will have changed
even more on your next visit,

and the visit after that.

Which is why you owe it
to yourself

to really enjoy this moment.

Because it won't be
coming back.

Oh, I have a meeting.

Bye for now, honey.

[call ends]

[upbeat music]

Have fun!

Hi. Enjoy.

Hi.

Oh.

-Look who's here.
-Hi!

The de la Cruz family, right?

Do you wanna pick some apples?

Welcome, welcome.

You wanna pick some too, right?

Have so much fun!

-Okay. Bye.
-Bye!

Now, it's still early.

Am I, uh...
am I here on the right day?

I don't, um...

I don't think I see a
Bellwether pre-register here.

No, that's Luke.

-Oh yeah.
-Yes, there it is.

-Right there.
-Thank you, both.

That's... there it is.

You know what would
be great? Is like, a...
like a selfie wall.

Ooh...

Interesting.

But this event is so that
people can relax and connect.

Not gain followers.

You could definitely use
some followers, you know.

I mean, people
are gonna be posting

on their socials anyway.

So what better way to ensure
Apple Hill's brand is present?

If these guests wanted
to be manipulated

by a greedy corporation,

they would be at one of
your properties.

There it is, right there.

The reason I've been getting
the special, or I should say,

not so special treatment,
is you have a problem

with my family's company.

[laughing]

I am sorry to burst
your precious bubble,

but I don't think about you
or Bellwether Holdings at all.

Do you wanna pick some apples?

Oh, actually...

I bought something special
just in case you came.

Seeing as you like to
spruce things up.

A broken basket
and apple picker.

[chuckles]

That's how we're treating
paying customers, but...

Um...

Have a good day.

[Nora] Goodbye!

[cheerful music]

Hey, buddy.

Sorry, I got caught up
with inventory. Ooh!

Glad you made it.

Uh... can you help, or are you
still scared of heights?

I can manage.

Go for it.

Pineapple donuts!

Wow. [laughs]

Don't think they could hear you
over in the other county.

Should I do it again?

No.

Hi. Do you want some?

Hello.

We have some more friends
over here.

-Oh, yes. Here you go.
-Hi guys.

Just like old times.

Is he friends with Jared?

-I like it.
-Not bad.

How about a little of this?

It sure looks like
they're close.

Oh!

You know what?

I think I went a little far.

I mean...

I completely get where
you're coming from.

Especially if he is scouting
to acquire Apple Hill.

But I don't know, Elise.

He doesn't seem like
that bad a guy.

[men laughing]

I mean, he even might be
a little fun.

But not that fun.

Big smiles. Big, big, big!

Smiley-er! Is that a word?
I'm just kidding.

Alright, you guys look great.

Three, two, one.
Big smiles!

[camera clicks]

Alright. if you post it,
please tag, uh...

'Inn at Apple Hill'.

-Yeah.
-Thanks, guys.

-Come on!
-What do you think?

It's amazing, right?

I mean, who needs a vacation
to Maui, or Rome,

when you have Landover?

So, about that vacation.
It's not exactly voluntary.

What happened?

She suspended me!
Can you believe that?

-No...
-Yes!

She calls it a
mandatory vacation.

Right.

Still got to feel pretty
harsh, though.

She says my management style
is not working, and...

sadly, I'm starting to realize
she might be right.

Your mom usually is, though.

I know.

Alright, so what?
You're suspended.

Now what?

I guess take your advice.
Disconnect from work.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

How's that going for you?

[chuckles]

Well, I don't have
my phone on me.

I'm not missing it too much.

-Too much.
-Too much.

Well, come on.
I'll put you to work.

Your turn on the ladder.

I'm on vacation.

[peaceful music]

[indistinct conversation]

-Good seeing you, buddy.
-Good seeing you too.

Jared.

-Elise! Hey.
-Hey.

Oh, I'm sorry I couldn't
say hi earlier.

No, no, no. You're busy
with all this.

It looks fantastic.

Oh, thank you. It's too bad
Candace couldn't make it.

Yeah, she had that open house.

Oh.

Well, that's good.

Hey, I wanted to ask
you something.

Yeah, shoot.

How do you know
Lucas Bellwether?

-Luke?
-Yeah.

We've been friends
since we were kids.

Wait...

That's...
that's Luke from school?

Yeah.

I was a couple years
behind you guys.

I remember him,

but the adult version
of him is... so different.

I mean, he's a little taller.

But he still has
that heart of gold.

Okay, if it wasn't for Luke,

there would be no
Landover Tavern.

[phone ringing]

Speaking of which...

I gotta take this, but this
has been great.

It looks fantastic.

Thank you.

[Jared] Landover Tavern.

Hi.

Hi.

I...

Is that for me?

Yeah. No... no.

Broken window frame.

Change air filter.

Fix damaged floor tiles.

Change smoke detectors.

Wow, this is a...

[tapping]

...pretty heavy to-do list.

You know what you forgot?
The broken apple picker.

So... we'll just go ahead
and add that one too.

I was going to give you that
list, but then I reconsidered.

I still can't figure out
the hang up you have

with my family's company.

It's like you think we're...

[Luke chuckles]

You... you think we want
to buy Apple Hill.

Don't you?

I originally thought that,
but then I found out

who you were.

Who am I?

You're... Luke.

Jared's best friend
from high school.

I didn't know that
until I talked to him.

Yeah, Luke.

Luke Bellwether was him then.
Luke Bellwether now.

What does that have to do
with anything?

Growing up, I just knew
you as Luke.

We weren't in the same grade.
We didn't hang out.

You always seem like this
simple, carefree guy.

I'm still that guy.

I didn't know that. I just saw
a corporation, and I...

I feel like I missed the chance
to get to know you that way.

Quick story.

After my parents' divorce,
my mom took me here.

To Apple Hill.

I had the time of
my life, apparently.

I was four years old,
but I do remember that

that was the weekend she
decided to move to Landover.

For good.

To give me a childhood
and an upbringing

I could never have
in New York.

So, you came here for that,
for those memories.

I'm sorry.

Just stay.

And I will make
all of this up to you.

I love it here.

I really love it here.

But seeing this inn that I love
in the state that it's in...

I am not gonna let you or
anyone else tarnish the memory

of how great it once was.

So you can keep this.

[pensive music]

Oh, it smells amazing in here.

Unfortunately, the oven
is on its last legs.

You know that some of these
pies went through

three rounds of baking
before they were ready?

Oh, and... they have the bruise
to show for it.

Well...

could that pie maybe
be good enough for

a certain electrician?

So, it is five days until
my follow-up meeting

with the bank, and things
keep getting worse.

I've literally tried everything
my grandma and grandpa would do

in this situation,
but nothing's clicking.

But you know what?

Something will.

Because it always does.

Maybe it's my fault. You know?

Look how I jumped to
conclusions with Luke.

Maybe a little bit.

But...

I heard that he's staying
with his friends

who own Landover Tavern.

Candace and Jared?

Mm-hmm.

Fun fact about
Lucas Bellwether...

loves apple pies.

He does?

Oh, I have no idea.

But there's only one way
to find out.

Hey. Look who's up.

Hey.

How'd you sleep?

Good. That bed is comfortable.

Better than your room
over at Apple Hill.

Yeah. Added bonus, I don't
have to deal with Elise Jacobs.

Right. Tea?

No. Something stronger, please.

Oh, okay.

I'm gonna have to leave
the coffee to you, though.

You know how to use one of
these things, right?

[fake laugh]

I gotta get up
to the tavern.

Uh... but I'll see you later?

Deal.

[cheerful music]

[knock at door]

Can I help you?

Consider this...

a freshly baked mea culpa.

Nora.

Hi.

Um...

Thank you for all your help
with the electrical at the inn.

This is from... Elise.

Oh.

Okay...

I should never have had
preconceived notions about you.

I didn't know
what the inn meant

to you and your mom,
and I'm...

I'm truly sorry.

Do all of your apologies
smell this good?

As long as I'm not
the one baking them.

Fair. Come in.

Uh...

Can I get you a coffee?

That'd be great.
Thank you.

Lovely change of pace.

A coffee truce, if you will.

A truce?

I was not the one at war.

Fair.

But I did wanna ask, had I been
interested in the inn,

you could've just said no.

I was a little afraid
I'd say yes.

Why is that?

Because I...

I dove wholeheartedly
into buying Apple Hill.

You know, I was determined
to preserve that part

of my grandparents' lives,

but it is taking everything
I have to keep it afloat.

And what's it giving to you?

It's keeping me up at night.

I'm worried that I'm not
gonna get the funding I need,

and then I'm...

I'm gonna have to let it go.

How long do you think you can
go without the loan?

Maybe through the first
week of November.

Maybe.

Well... the good news is,
I think I can help.

If you'll let me.

Uh... how are your books?
Any upcoming events?

Nope.

The orchard harvest was
the last event of the season.

What about... Halloween party?

Oh, that became too tough
for my grandparents to do.

They stopped doing it
15 years ago.

Exactly.

Imagine the response if you
brought it back.

-This Halloween?
-This Halloween.

The one that's
in a matter of days.

Matter of days.
Plenty of time.

Perfect.

I really appreciate your
enthusiasm, I do.

But I'm not sure that one night
is enough to save my inn.

What if we sold tickets?

That would work.

And if you agree to that...

it would also let me consider
accepting your apology.

I also have a condition.

Okay.

I will consider doing
the Halloween party...

if you give me a second chance
and you finish your stay

at Apple Hill.

Elise Jacobs, you have a deal.

[glasses clink]

[peaceful music]

Um...

Discard.

Keep.

Oh, I liked him.
That's ok.

Alright.

You know what?

We need to rethink this
entire party.

Do you realize how much
Landover's changed?

I do.

But I've been here, so for me,
it's been more gradual.

There was this photo I really
loved of Jared and I.

It was right after the hockey
state championship.

It hung in that high school
for years.

It was like a permanent part
of the community.

And... now it's gone.

Neither of you have a copy?

-No.
-Hm.

And the arcade.

Okay, I cried when they
closed that down.

Elise, that's my point.

That's why we need
to have this party.

Something needs to be brought
back to life.

I know, and I want to, but...
what am I supposed to do?

Go door to door to every
craft store and ask them

if I can use their projects
as decorations for our party?

They seem pretty
into their work,

maybe we should
just post a flyer.

Why wait? We're here now.

Uh... excuse me, guys.
This won't take long.

Uh... I'm Luke.

This is Elise.

She owns the inn at Apple Hill,

and we're throwing
a Halloween party.

And we would love to know
if you wanted to help

in the decorations department.

As a little added bonus,
if you do contribute,

there'll be free admission
to the party.

So what do you guys say?
Show of hands.

Everyone?

Boom.

Every single hand went up.

I figure it just goes to show
you how much they want you

to have this Halloween party.

It was also about displaying
their artwork.

See right there?

That's what you need
to improve your outlook,

a little Braemer's ice cream.

Pumpkin scoop cures everything.

I don't need to improve
my outlook.

And they don't have
pumpkin ice cream.

Yes, they do.

Alright, you'll see.

They better have it.

They better have it!

Candy corn, really?

Everyone loves it.

No, everyone does not love it.

Get rid of pumpkin
for candy corn?

I have never seen someone get
so worked up over a dessert

that tastes like a gourd.

[laughs]

[laughing]

You can't say it like that.

No, it's pumpkin and
cinnamon and allspice.

It's perfect for fall,
even if it's snowy.

Your excitement about
the little things in this town,

you just light up.

Are you like that
about the city?

Uh... pizza. Yes.

Other than that, no.

I went to New York for the sole
purpose of getting my MBA,

in hopes of one day
running Bellwether.

One more try.

'Cause I'm adventurous.

You know what?

No.

[laughs] Oh...

See? Even the trash can
didn't want it.

What'd you get?

You saw a whole array
of ice creams

you could've chosen from.

It looks delicious.

It's so good.

Give me a bite.

May I have a bite?

Better.

Thank you.

Glad you fell for that.

[peaceful music]

Were you all done
with breakfast?

Yeah, officially it is.

But I can get you something.

No, no, I'm good.

I just wanted to see
if you were free.

I got something planned.

Adventure awaits.

Ooh.

Okay.

Give me just a minute.

Great.

[Elise] Where are
you taking me?

[Luke] That, my lady,
is a surprise.

[Elise] Oh, well, I can't wait
to find out.

[Luke] I'll give you a hint.

I'm taking you to
the pumpkin patch to
buys some pumpkins.

These are absolutely amazing.

Flawless.

Oh, boy.

Probably out of our
price range.

I don't know.

But I do know these are some
odd-looking pumpkins.

I wonder who farms them.

You want odd-looking...

you should see my friend,
Luke Bellwether.

What's up, buddy?

How long has it been?

About that...

Ten years.

It's been ten years!

Busy an excuse?

I'm a pediatrician
who also farms pumpkins.

Fair enough. Uh... Ron, Elise.
Elise, Ron.

Nice to meet you.

These are exquisite.

Elise owns the Inn
at Apple Hill.

Hannah and Charlie's place.

I'm the granddaughter,
I took it over.

How'd you get tangled up
with this guy?

Oh, yeah. Right?
[laughs]

We're thinking about
bringing back

the Halloween party
at the inn.

And what's a Halloween party
without some pumpkins?

So, uh... a little bit
of a budget, but...

I will absolutely hook you up.

I'm guessing you also
need hay bales.

Whatever you suggest.

[phone rings]

That'd be great, thank you.

I'll be right back.

So, you haven't talked to him
in 10 years,

and you show up and ask
him a favor, and he agrees?

Yeah.

Let's go find some pumpkins.

You're all set, Ms. Randolph.

Yeah, we look forward
to your stay, too.

Okay. Bye.

Hey, Nora.

Hi, um...

How can I help you?

I was, uh, just in the area.

Thought I'd stop by and thank
Elise for that apple pie.

Well, she's out at the moment,
but I will...

I will pass that word along.

What you doing?

Uh... I am just working on
a little surprise for Elise.

Need any help?

I'm, uh...

I'm just kind of in the zone.

Cool. Gotcha.

[door opens]

Oh! Hi.

-Oh, hi. Hi Chuck.
-Hey

That is... that's a lot
of decorations.

Not that I don't love them.
They're great.

But can we afford them?

These are all donated by local
artists, thanks to Luke.

How you doing? Luke.

Chuck. The electrician.

Oh, nice to meet you.

I think this is gonna
look good. Yeah.

Yeah. We have pumpkins,
hay bales.

Oh, and Ron's donating
a bunch of lights.

That's gonna be a problem.

No problem. No charge.

It's just stuff he had extra
from storage.

The inn's electrical panel
is the original

knob and tube system,
and it can barely keep

the lights on as it is.

Okay. So how do we light
the outside?

Well, I guess we're just gonna
have to rely

on the original lighting
we use every day.

I don't think you can
have the Halloween party

you wanna have without
lighting up the outside.

That's kind of essential.

What's essential is that
the panel holds up

so I can stay in business.

Any extra lighting...

[mimics explosion]

Okay, uh... how much does
a new panel cost?

It's $12,103.

And 42 cents. [clears throat]

That is specific. But, hey,
we have options.

No. Don't even say it.

I mean, if it needs repairs,
it needs repairs.

No, I'm not taking a handout
from you, Luke.

It's not a handout,
I promise.

Thank you.

End of discussion.

I'm gonna... [clears throat]

[fire crackling]

What if we called it a, uh...

I don't know, a temporary loan.

That I'm not sure
I can pay back.

Listen, if we don't do
this party right,

you're not gonna hit
your numbers.

Please let me help.

I truly appreciate
everything you've done.

But when I agreed
to go in on this,

it was to work together.

Not to be your latest project.

That's not what I'm doing.

Is it?

No.

Maybe a little.

If I rely on you for this,
how am I gonna get through

the next problem, or the one
after that?

By letting people do for you
exactly what I know

you would do for them
in a heartbeat.

You've seen firsthand how
quickly people come together

if you just let them in.

I can't take money from you.

I think we need to quit
while we're ahead.

Um...

That might be problematic.

I've already made
an announcement.

When? Where?

Uh... this morning.

Social media and
the Landover Tribune.

See.

You... you need to cancel it.

Well, see, I can't 'cause, uh..
we've already sold 110 tickets.

No. Wait a minute.

No, no, no.

This deal has been
as good as done for weeks,

and you're telling me that
Starfield's making

additional demands now
in the 11th hour?

No.

No, I don't want legal to draft
any modifications.

At least not yet.
How much time do we have?

Three days.

Well, that's not enough.

Get me an extension!

[scoffs]

[peaceful music]

And this is why Chuck
is officially off my list.

It's odd, 'cause I don't
remember him

mentioning a girlfriend.

Yeah, yet there she was.

But this is looking festive.

Do we have any updates
from Luke on ticket sales?

Yeah. We're at over 200.

That's amazing.

And there's also
no backing out now.

We can always refund tickets.

And let down our
entire community?

We have an oven that can
barely make breakfast

for 20 to 30 guests.

Let alone feed over 200 people.

Who said you had to do food?

We're already at a disadvantage
with the lighting.

If we make too many shortcuts,
people will notice.

And I almost forgot
to tell you, um...

a woman from the community
center named Julie called.

She says... "it's there".

[whispers] What does that mean?

Looks so good, doesn't it?

[cheerful music]

So, I know it might not look
like much right now,

but the plan is to convert this
into a private events room.

I mean, once I can get this
all cleared out.

And once that's done,
are you thinking about

a second location?

That might be a Luke Bellwether
thing to do, but me,

I'm having a hard enough time
keeping up as it is.

How are the plans for Halloween
coming along?

The inn's electricity won't
support all the decorations

that I think we should
be doing, so...

but we'll... we'll manage.

That used to happen to us
every Christmas.

Any time I'd add a new string
of lights, I'd be worried

about the power going out
if I made a cup of coffee.

Did you upgrade?

No, I got a generator.

We're up to three now.

Generators.

[inspirational music]

[line ringing]

[voicemail] Hi, you've reached
Luke Bellwether,

CFO of Bellwether Holdings.

I'm unavailable at the moment,
but if you please leave

your name, number--

Since when doesn't he answer
the phone?

[Luke] What are we doing
at the library?

I thought we picked up all
the Halloween decorations.

We did, indeed.

Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

Oh, wow.

Look at that.

Do you remember Steve?

Look at that, man.
Heck, yeah. Old nine.

[laughing]

God, that was great.

Look at this next one.

Oh...

What?

Are you serious?

Yeah.

I remembered hearing about
an installation that had photos

from Landover High School.

And I wasn't sure yours
was in here, but...

I made a call and here it is.

I cannot believe this.
You tracked this down for me?

I got determined to find
something that hadn't changed.

Plus, I...

I was dying to see
your reaction.

I hope it didn't disappoint.

No, it didn't.

I feel like I've watched
you come to life

since you've been here.

What can I say?
It's contagious.

Maybe a little.

Just a little.

Knowing I'm gonna be back
in the city,

but there'll be
a piece of me here.

Thank you.

Well, you have left...

much more of an impression
than any photo could.

[cheerful music]

Fresh pastries!

Oh. Good morning.

Enjoy.

Nora!

There you are.

Was wondering where you were.

Sorry. Um...

I'm actually not sure how
to tell you this, but... here.

Is everything okay?

Yep.

-Guestbook?
-Yeah.

Out of all the platforms,
their reviews were the best.

So, I met with a sales rep,
and they agreed to give us

a three-month trial.

We already have reservations.

Because I went live last week
without telling you.

But you can't be upset at me
because I hand-wrote

all reservations
in your guestbook

so that you wouldn't notice.

You are nothing
if not determined.

And I've been entering
in all past guest notes

during my downtime.

There is one problem.

We're fully booked
for Halloween.

Yes!

What?

[phone ringing]

Hello?

[Donna] Why aren't you
answering my calls?

You told me to dis--

Disconnect, not disappear.

Listen, honey, I'm very glad
to hear that you've had a nice

stay in Landover, but how would
you feel about coming back?

Sooner than three days
from now?

Sooner, as in today.
It's urgent.

Morning, Nora.

Good morning.

Hey, uh, are we all set
for today?

Yes.

As long as you can
keep Elise away.

I can try, if I knew
where she was.

Where is she?

She went to Candace
and Jared's tavern.

Hey, Nora. Luke.

What's going on, Chuck?

Oh, Chuck volunteered to help
us with the lights.

That is great. Um...

I just remembered I forgot
something inside.

So, I'm gonna...

Okay.

Okay.

How well do you know Nora?

Just from work I've done
around here at Apple Hill.

And, uh... she brought me a pie.

A pie? That's nice.

Yeah, from Elise.
But it was great timing.

My sister was in town,
and she loves the apple pie.

Chuck.

Would it be a crazy idea
to think that maybe

Nora might like you?

Uh... me?

Uh... no.

Nora is, uh... she's...
way out of my league.

[chuckles]

Cords.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Alright, and we have
the butternut squash gnocchi

with arugula salad.

Careful, the plates are hot.

And we have the fire
roasted chicken

with the honey glazed carrots.

Enjoy.

Elise!

Hey, you.

So good to see you.

You too.

What can I do for you?

Elise!

This is such a surprise.

-Hi.
-So good to see you.

Oh, I just got a new listing.

What? That's amazing!

But it's not just any listing.

It is Luke's childhood home.

No.

Oh, sorry. I totally
took over this.

No, no, no.
What can we do for you?

Uh, well...

I came to ask you guys a favor.

Sure. Anything.

Well, Luke told you about
the Halloween party

at Apple Hill.

Well our oven has been
on the fritz,

and I was hoping that maybe
we could prep some items

here for the party?

Or maybe we could do the food
for the party.

Yeah!

That's so much,
I couldn't let you.

We wanna support you.

Yeah, and it's great
advertisement for
the restaurant.

Mmhmm.

-Well, then...
-A no-brainer.

how could I say no?
Thank you.

We would never let you say no.

That's true.

In that case, I do have
one more little question.

Shoot.

Go on.

Oh, excuse me!
Thank you.

Are you stealing
my friends, Jacobs?

Hi.

And not a chance.
They are Luke devotees.

[both laugh]

I came here to source
an oven for Halloween,

and I ended up securing
a food vendor.

I'm sorry, was that you
asking someone else for help?

They volunteered,
to be honest.

I was surprised to see
how excited they were

about the party.

Why would you be surprised?

Everyone here wants you
and Apple Hill to succeed.

Including someone who's just
randomly hanging out by my car?

Oh, no, no, no.
Not random.

I'm on a mission to take you
to an early dinner.

Why do I have the feeling
you're trying

to keep me from the inn?

Because I am.

[laughs]

But don't worry,
you're gonna approve.

As long as I get to choose
the place.

[Luke] So you're not going
to tell me.

[Elise] That's not
how surprises work.

[Luke] Did you buy me
a pony?

[Elise] Okay. Keep 'em closed.

[Luke] This is ridiculous.
I'm not 12.

[both laughing]

Open up.

[both laugh]

My childhood home, what?

Well, Candace just got
the listing,

and so now we have access.

Of course she did.

This is amazing.
Thank you.

You're welcome.

Listen. I, uh...

I should go ahead and tell you.

We hit a pretty big snag
at work,

and my mom needs me
back in New York, so...

But you're still here.

I am.

I told her I was not gonna miss
Halloween at Apple Hill.

After you.

[laughing]

You ever notice anything was up
with Nora and Chuck?

She used to have such
a crush on him.

And she went to surprise him
with a pie.

And she met his girlfriend.
Oh.

His what?

His girlfriend.

That's not his girlfriend.
That's his sister.

She's visiting right now
from out of town.

No.

Yeah.

Oh, that changes everything.

[chuckles] Oh, yeah.

Your childhood home
being for sale

the week you're visiting.

Right?

You think that's a sign?

Well...

it's too much of a coincidence
to just let go.

But, man...

You hear that?

Hear what?

Nothing.

No sirens, no buses,
no city traffic.

This is nice.
This is peaceful.

Sounds like you miss
being here.

Yeah.

I mean, the truth is, I wish
I could be two places at once.

You know, fulfilling my
obligations at Bellwether.

And then having special moments
like this with you.

Sometimes you have to choose.

I know Bellwether would survive
and largely remain the same

with or without you.

But I can't say the same
for everyone here.

Including me.

Oh, my gosh.
They're here.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.

What?

Come here.

What is it?

You'll see.

Okay.

Chuck! Now!

[gasps]

Luke, you said
no new electrical.

But nothing about
borrowed generators.

Wait...

You did all of that
with generators?

No, actually. Uh...

Oh, Nora and Chuck
deserve most of the credit.

No, no. It was along with
a group of volunteers

who were willing to decorate
in exchange for a party invite.

[laughs] That's amazing.

So, I guess we're ready
to throw a party.

[all laugh]

Luke? There you are.
Finally.

Mom.

-Hi, um...
-Hi.

Oh, uh... Mom, this is Elise.

Elise, it's lovely to meet you.

Hello.

Now I understand why my son
won't return my calls.

When did Starfield counter
with different terms?

Last week. Out of the blue.

I have 16 hours left before
they shop other buyers.

If I could just call their
bluff and do nothing,

I would, but...

I need you on this one, son.

But you really don't.

Watching you work,
it's made me learn to trust

that first intuition.

Look at all your pros and cons
and then act.

Wow.

Right now, my intuition
is telling me that

I have not seen you
this happy

in a very long time.

A break from reality
will do that to someone.

This is reality.

For Jared, Candace.

Not to mention Elise.

Starfield.

[cheerful music]

[mouth full] And you're
sure that...

it's just his sister?

What?

His sister.

[laughs] Yes.

Luke verified with Chuck,
and he is 100 percent single.

As a matter of fact, he's here
doing a scavenger hunt

with some of the kids
right now.

He's here. That's cool.

That's cool. Okay.

So, tonight is the night.

I have all sales set
to route here.

All you have to do is
enter expenses.

Incredible. So, at the end
of the night,

I will know completely
where we stand?

Yes.

Thank you so much, Nora.
You are brilliant.

Um, I meant to ask you,
how are you feeling

about this being
Luke's last night?

I... I shouldn't...

No.

Obviously, I wish he could
stay in Landover,

you know, so that we could
get to know each other better.

But we got into this knowing
he was gonna go back

to the city, so...

Wow!

Hi.

I knew you guys were gonna
do a great job, but this is...

this is incredible.

Thank you.

It looks really great.

Is that a selfie wall?

Mm-hmm.

I don't know if you're aware,
but these are great

for capturing the moment,
and also, at the same time,

promoting the inn.

I was not. It's genius, though.
And you're...

yeah, you're scaring me
a little bit.

It is Halloween.

Yes it is.

There's one other thing
I wanna show you.

Follow me.

This was not in the plans.

No.

Ice cream?

Mm-hmm.
Not just any ice cream.

It's pumpkin ice cream.

Really?

Mm-hmm. You wanna try it?

Yes, I do.

Oh... thank you.

[laughs]

Phenomenal.

Phenomenal.

Really?

Ten outta ten, no notes.
Better than Braemer's.

Which isn't saying much,

'cause Braemer's doesn't
have pumpkin ice cream.

That's true.

But if they did... that's it.

I don't know what to say.

No one's ever done anything
like this for me.

[children laughing]

[Nora] Happy Halloween!

Oh, my goodness!
Look at everyone!

[children clamoring]

You all look so great.

You guys look awesome.

Wow.

Nora. Where, uh...

where's your costume?

Oh, those are only for kids.

Yeah. [chuckles]

But you... you look great.

Thanks.

The tail is...

Yeah... it's growing on me.

[Chuck] I keep forgetting
it's back there.

*

* I'm ready to be free *

* with these chains
hanging on me. *

*

* I'm gonna scream from
the mountain top *

*

*

* I used to feel pain
and now I feel alright *

* alright, alright... *

[children scream in delight]

Hey.

Well?

What do you think?

-Honestly?
-Yeah.

Best party I've been to
in years.

You think so?

I do.

But maybe I'm not the one
you should be asking.

Is this how you enjoy
your own party?

[laughs] Usually, yes.

I'm just trying to make sure
everything stays stocked.

Well, do me a favor.

I just want you to stop
and take a look around.

'Cause you did all this.

I couldn't have done it
without everyone else.

I know, I know. But...

no one goes it alone and
achieves something great.

And you, and this inn,
are at the heart of it.

Take your moment.

*

* Be where I wanna be. *

* I feel free. *

Look at them.

*

Oh, we did that together.

Well done.

Well done.

This calls for
a little celebration.

'Cause it's not
a selfie wall until...

We take a selfie.

* Be exactly
where I need to be *

[camera clicks]

Let me do one.

Okay, yeah. I think that's
gonna be better.

Big arms. There we go.

[camera clicks]

[Nora] Ok. Party is over.

Do you guys need any help?
No? Great. Okay.

Hi!

So, I kinda think tonight is
gonna be the talk of the town.

How's it going?

Well, I see ticket sales,
beverages,

but I don't see the final
number I was looking for.

You need to open another tab
to get into the expenses.

So, this is the moment
of truth.

Okay. Should we close our eyes?

Did we do it?

Elise?

[emotional music]

Well...

Everyone seemed to have
a really great time.

[chuckles softly]

And, uh... they're already
talking about next year.

There won't be a next year.

We didn't hit the number
we needed.

I had an entire community
behind me, including you,

and still, we...

You did everything you could.

This is not your fault.

Thank you.

I should feel better that
attempting to do the impossible

was actually impossible. Right?

But I don't.

This is not how
I wanted to leave.

You know that.

I do.

It's not how I wanted you
to leave either.

New York's not far away.

Just far enough.

Bye.

[melancholy music]

[car engine rumbles]

I was so inspired

I came straight back from
Landover yesterday to prep.

Well...

when are we meeting
with Starfield?

Well, um...

the deal already went through.

What? When?

Last night.

I told them the deal
we agreed upon

was the deal we were
sticking with, and...

they signed.

[Donna chuckles]

That's amazing.
Congratulations.

-Thank you.
-Wow.

And thanks for reminding me
to trust my instincts.

This isn't easy for me to say.

But, um...

I don't know if
it's for forever,

-Mmhmm.
-but for right now,

I got the feeling you belong
in Landover.

You've put so much work
into me.

I just don't ever wanna
disappoint you.

No.

You could never
disappoint me, son.

Lucas, I am so proud of you.

Actually, I think the only
thing that could ever

disappoint me is if somehow
I prevented you

from going after what
you want in life.

I love you, kid.

I love you, too.

[cheerful music]

Elise, I'm sorry I'm late.

That's fine. I won't take long.

You gave me the courtesy
of a meeting,

so I wanted to show up
in person

and let you know that I
was aiming for 15 percent.

Thank you for coming.

Even with everyone's help,
I only landed at 13.7...

Elise... Elise!

You did something so much
better than just hit a number.

Here, let me show you. Look.

That is my son.

That's his wife and their
two daughters.

Look at them.

They called me, after 10,
just to tell me

the amazing time
that they had last night.

You have created more
excitement in one night

for this town than
any business in years.

I... I don't understand.
What are you saying?

I'm saying that you
proved me wrong.

You showed that you have
what it takes

to keep a place like Apple
Hill alive long term.

I'm telling you that we're
giving you the loan.

[gasps]

Congratulations.

Oh, thank you!

[both chuckle]

You're welcome.

Hey, come on in. Grab a spot
anywhere you'd like,

I'll be right with you.

Man, I've been thinking.

Hey, Luke.
Thought you went home.

And you know what happens
when I start thinking.

Oh, no.

Let's get right to the point.

Okay.

Let's go into
business together.

[chuckles]

I mean, I would love to,
but, uh...

hotels aren't exactly
in my wheelhouse.

Not the hotels.

I wanna expand the tavern.

Are you being serious?

Absolutely.

You know, the other day
when you said that

it might be difficult for
you to do it by yourself.

I was thinking, how much fun
would that be to do together?

It'd be a lot of fun.

-Yeah?
-Yeah!

You don't need time
to think about it?

No.

Candace! Amazing news!

[VO] All it takes is just one
moment to change everything.

To see that your dreams
are still within reach.

Well, this is becoming a habit.

Habits take around
28 days to form.

I think I've known you
for around...

let's see... carry the two...

I've known you for 12 days.

What are you doing here?

Well, it looks
like I'm on another

permanent vacation
to Landover.

What about Bellwether?

I think I'm still gonna consult
with them from time to time.

The main focus is gonna be
to work with Jared

on expanding the tavern.

But I have to say, um... it's n
the only reason I'm here.

You are the reason.

Are you up for this challenge?

Do you mean being with you?

Mm-hmm.

[both laugh]

I have never been more
up for anything in my life.

[VO] All it takes is to
let down your guard,

see life in a different light,

and open your heart
to the one person

you've been searching for
all along.

[Nora] Hi.

-It's for you.
-It's for me.

Hey.

Do you like surprises?

-I wanna show you something.
-Ok.

Come here.

To the right.

[gasps]

Space Barge.

[laughs]

How did you...

I made Tony an offer
he could not refuse.

-Luke.
-Mm-hmm?

You love Space Barge, right?

I do.

Got quarters?

Two players?

-Let's go.
-Yeah.

[arcade bleeps and bloops]

You're lucky we're
on the same team.

[Elise squirming]

[laughing]

Ready?

Yeah!

What? That should've been
the high score.

Who is... C, heart, N?
Who is that?

Yeah, um... Chuck and I...

We weren't really sure
how to tell you, but...

we're kind of the new champs.

[clicks tongue]

Not without a fight,
you're not.

Got more quarters?

Yes, I do.

And a kiss for good luck.

* Bring me home *

Game on.
