00:01In weather, record-breaking hurricane course winds are getting us early in the season this year.
00:07We're looking at sustained gusts of over 97 miles an hour.
00:30We should head over to Pavis. She's got a basement.
01:00Dancer?
01:06Dancer!
01:09Dancer!
01:19Dancer!
01:23Lord, I need a little help right now!
01:26I got him!
01:30I got him!
01:34Camera itself, there is a measure of the valley.
01:37This may be the storm of the century.
01:39Reports are tornadoes touching down so we're still heading our way.
01:42If you can hear this, take shelter immediately.
01:44The time for evacuation is over.
01:46Zach, we'll be here on that.
01:50Um, I'm gonna...
01:54Zach?
01:55All of you guys in town.
02:02Call him Trump.
02:06I think it's about time for you and me to, uh, get the hay.
02:11Seriously.
02:13Yeah.
02:15Now what I remember, I remember being here for one of your birthday parties.
02:22You know what? I...
02:24I also remember running into you at the, uh, the picnic.
02:27Yeah, about five years ago now.
02:33All right.
02:34Everybody ready?
02:35Ready.
02:36Set.
02:37Go!
02:38Inside!
02:39Outside!
02:40Inside!
02:41Inside!
02:42Inside!
02:43Inside!
02:44Go!
02:45Go!
02:46Go!
02:47Go!
02:48Go!
02:49Alright!
02:50I spoke too soon!
02:51I thought we were gonna win.
02:52Fine.
02:53I'll leave your up now.
02:55Today's been really fun.
02:58Yeah.
02:59I'd have enjoyed losing that race.
03:07I'm just gonna go out on a limb here.
03:09But I think this would be really fun to do again next week.
03:13The fair's not going to be back till the end of the month.
03:18Oh, I know. Not the fair.
03:21I just meant coffee or a movie or something.
03:26I'll get the tickets. You get the popcorn.
03:31I don't think so.
03:38Lauren, look. I did you a favor. Believe me.
03:41You were a schoolteacher and people would have talked, I promise.
03:47They talked anyway.
03:48No, but the stories would have been much different.
03:52Yeah, but I would not have cared.
03:56I'm sorry.
04:11Lauren, I'm so sorry.
04:23This is my house. This is where I grew up. Like, all of my memories are here.
04:29Lauren, a lot of this stuff isn't ruined.
04:30And, you know, you just dry it out, get the water off of it, the mold sets in.
04:37I guess.
04:38You guess?
04:40No, things are just things, Lauren.
04:44No, but they were my things, though.
04:46Right.
04:46But they weren't you.
04:49They weren't the dancer.
04:50They weren't your parents.
04:53I know. You're right.
04:55When I was a little girl, I would sit there and I'd watch my parents fix everything.
05:01And then I grew up and I learned how to do the same.
05:03My dad and I built that barn that kept us safe last night.
05:08And I have watched hours and hours of home rental shows.
05:14I'm going to rebuild this house myself.
05:18Yeah?
05:19Yes.
05:21I know I can do it.
05:23So, Lauren, what are you going to do next?
05:29First, I'm going to stop feeling sorry for myself.
05:31I know there are plenty of folks out there who are way worse off than I am.
05:36I was actually thinking about that earlier this morning.
05:40I thought about maybe going into town, checking everybody, checking the damage.
05:48Well, let's go do that.
05:51Yeah.
05:52All right.
05:56All right, why don't we throw on a change of clothes?
05:58Yeah.
05:59Good idea.
06:01I'm sorry about last night.
06:08What about?
06:09It's bringing up the past.
06:11I shouldn't have done that.
06:13I'm sorry for that day at the fair.
06:15Thank you, but you are allowed to date whoever you want.
06:20Believe me, you did dodge a bullet with me.
06:23Okay?
06:24Being single is kind of my lot in life, I guess.
06:26But what about you?
06:29Anyone you're seeing?
06:31Uh, yeah, my boyfriend, Dane.
06:34Well, he's not a fiancΓ©, actually.
06:36Well, kind of.
06:38Kind of?
06:40That's a kind of fiancΓ©.
06:43What's this?
06:44Frida?
06:48Colin?
06:48Lauren?
06:49Hey, Frida.
06:50How are you and Hector doing?
06:52We're good.
06:52Can't say as much for Mayor Wallace.
06:54Did you hear?
06:55No.
06:56What happened?
06:57Heart attack.
06:58He was checking on some people in a tree fell.
07:01Landed on the hood of his car, just like that.
07:04He didn't make it.
07:05There's never been a storm like this recorded in the county's history.
07:09We're all praying that there aren't any more casualties.
07:12I can't believe this.
07:14Um, thank you so much, Frida.
07:18Drop safe.
07:19You too, Colin.
07:20Rolls are in bad shape.
07:29Hey, Sutter.
07:30It's Colin.
07:31Yeah, no, how are you?
07:32It looked pretty bad up there last night.
07:34Yeah, no, uh, not a scratch.
07:36I'm relieved.
07:37How's Colin?
07:37Mom, not a scratch.
07:39His words.
07:39He's fine.
07:41I, um, I spent the night at Lauren Christensen's barn.
07:46Excuse me?
07:47You want to explain?
07:48I'm fine, but, um, her house was destroyed in the storm.
07:57That's awful.
07:58Oh, and good of you to take care of her.
08:00Oh, no.
08:01She's actually the one who took care of me.
08:02She actually got me in out of the storm, kept me dry.
08:07How did you end up at her place?
08:09I mean, I know you got that property up there next to hers, but...
08:11Hey, uh, Sutter, listen, I gotta go.
08:14This is the only line that we have.
08:16Okay, uh, just tell me one thing.
08:18She's still as good looking as I remember?
08:23Better.
08:23You'd be good to her, Colin.
08:27Yeah, no, Mom, I love her.
08:28I already did.
08:29Later.
08:30See ya.
08:30This is how the Schumachs make out.
08:35The road to their barn washed out completely, but they got their animals out early, so...
08:41They did.
08:44That's some good news, I guess.
08:45Hey, going back to what I said earlier about helping you rebuild your house, it'd be no trouble.
08:55It's okay, I can figure it out.
08:57It's not like I think that you need a man's help or anything like that.
09:01It's just, you know what I do for a living, right?
09:03Yes, you make furniture.
09:05I'm a carpenter.
09:07Pretty good carpenter, actually.
09:08And so helping you with your house would be no problem.
09:10No problem.
09:11That's a really nice offer, but no thank you.
09:15The phone's free, so I'm going to call my fiancΓ©.
09:29You have Dane?
09:31Hey, it's me.
09:32Lauren, my assistant's been trying you for hours.
09:34Are you okay?
09:35Yes, I'm fine.
09:37Um, but my entire house was destroyed.
09:42But, and, and sorry, I would have called earlier, but all the power's out, all the phone lines are down.
09:50Your house was destroyed?
09:52But my Lauren's okay.
09:54I'm fine.
09:55I promise.
09:56You should move into my Manhattan condo while I'm still closing this deal.
09:59Then when I'm done, I'll meet you there.
10:00You want me to leave at a time like this?
10:03Dane, I, I can't do that.
10:04The community needs every single one of us here right now.
10:08Look, I just want you to be safe.
10:12That's, that's sweet.
10:13But I'm going to stay here, and I also want to rebuild my family home myself.
10:21Listen, give me a couple hours.
10:23I'm going to talk to my assistant.
10:24He's going to find you the best crew in the tri-state area.
10:27They'll be there this afternoon to start construction.
10:30A crew?
10:30No, no, no, um, no, no, no, no, it's way too early for any of that.
10:34You're going to supervise, of course.
10:36Dane Richards, you have zero listening skills.
10:40My grandparents built that family home, and I'm going to do the same.
10:44Lauren, Lauren, I'm just trying to help.
10:45You're a school teacher.
10:46You can't build a house by yourself.
10:47I know it takes a team to rebuild a home, but that team starts with me.
10:51Hey, how do you get in here?
10:59Excuse me?
11:01Sorry, I was rude.
11:03And that is why we need to get people out there now, starting the cleanup efforts.
11:07This is crazy.
11:09The council has made a list of places to start.
11:12Nathan, I know you're doing your best with Mayor Wallace, gone and all, but we need to
11:22organize search parties to go out there and find the people who need help.
11:28I just spoke with the people from FEMA less than an hour ago.
11:32They need the roads clear so that they can deliver the relief supplies.
11:35Food, water, medicine.
11:37Right, search and rescue is the main priority right now.
11:40And you said to yourself that FEMA was not going to be here for several days.
11:44This is not about you, Colin.
11:46Please sit down.
11:47Nathan, given the circumstances, I feel like we just set aside our differences.
11:52Now here, we look out for each other.
11:55That's what we do.
11:57You guys are going to be people out there without clean water, without power.
12:00They can be injured.
12:01They can be sick.
12:03We've got to have search parties to get out there and find those people.
12:07Our fire department is out there right now.
12:11Doing exactly just that.
12:12Great.
12:13Well, we can help them.
12:14How many firefighters are there?
12:16We have five well-trained professionals.
12:19Five.
12:21Nathan, that's a lot of ground to cover.
12:23And we should split those five up.
12:25And each one of those firefighters can be in charge of a small search party of volunteers.
12:29We could search the entire town in a day, a day and a half at max.
12:32So we'd have five search parties?
12:35Five?
12:36Fine.
12:37The council will radio out to the professionals.
12:40And if the firefighters agree, council will allow it.
12:43Page.
12:53Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
12:59I've been looking everywhere for you.
13:02Oh, we tried to get you.
13:04I'm so glad you two made it through the storm okay.
13:07Oh, we're fine.
13:08We're fine.
13:09Hey, how are you and Mark?
13:10Oh, we just lost the porch and the shed.
13:12How about your place?
13:16Not as bad as some.
13:18You know, my heart goes out to Carolina Santos.
13:20Oh, mine too.
13:23Hey.
13:24Oh, can you stop?
13:25Was that Colin I saw you waving at just now?
13:28Oh, yeah.
13:28Yeah, he's helping out with one of the search and rescue teams.
13:31Yeah, I heard he was helping, but...
13:34Why are you waving at each other?
13:36You hate him.
13:37No, I don't hate him.
13:39Oh, really?
13:39I have heard you say the actual words.
13:42I hate Colin Tron.
13:44I'm just worried about him.
13:47You know, Page, I'm worried about everybody.
13:49It's dangerous out there.
13:51There are live power lines down.
13:53There are complete road closures.
13:54Like...
13:55So when exactly did the hate stop?
14:00Well, last night, we spent the night together in the barn and...
14:04Mara!
14:05Tell me everything.
14:07No, nothing happens.
14:09No, we just got to know each other a little better.
14:12That's all.
14:14Okay, let's help with the Pallopock.
14:17And you are telling me every detail.
14:20Come on.
14:20Nothing.
14:32Nothing.
14:37Useless technology.
14:40Help! Help me! Anybody? Help me!
14:56Mr. Rodriguez, are you in there?
14:59Yes! I'm here! And I knocked off my wheelchair! My leg is stuck!
15:06Stay calm! Yeah, we have the rescue team here. We're here in the Supreme and we'll get you out!
15:15Bless you! I've been stuck here for hours!
15:21Alright, we're here now. Okay, we'll have you out shortly.
15:25Hmm.
15:35So, did you hear?
15:39What, the chicken's a little dry but the mac and cheese is to die for?
15:42Nope.
15:43Thank you so much.
15:44Thank you. Your boyfriend's a hero.
15:47Oh yeah? Dane's in Australia. What could he have done?
15:51No. You're a new boyfriend.
15:55I'm an engaged woman.
15:57So, you officially accepted Dane's proposal then?
16:02Not exactly. See?
16:05I love Dane.
16:06I have no interest in Colin except his friends and besides, he made it very clear in the past that he was never interested either.
16:17Wait, Hero?
16:19He saved Mr. Rodriguez.
16:22Hugo fell out of his wheelchair and spent the entire storm on the floor of his bedroom.
16:26He was lucky that Colin found him.
16:30Wait, is he gonna be okay?
16:32Yeah.
16:33Joel, he's a firefighter, said Colin cleared the debris and carried Hugo out to the team.
16:40Joel said, if they hadn't split up like Colin suggested, they wouldn't have got to Hugo for a few more days.
16:48And who knows what would have happened by then?
16:50We have got ourselves a real, live hero.
17:01Well, if you're not interested, maybe I should ask him out.
17:05I think you should stop talking and eat some chicken.
17:08I hear it strong.
17:20Hello.
17:23I think we'll need to sit in a second.
17:24I know looks pretty cute.
17:25He's a roast...
17:26I know.
17:27I know.
17:28I know.
17:30I think he's not a turkey.
17:32I know he's a he's a treat.
17:33He's a turkey.
17:34I know he's a little bit too.
17:36He's a little bit too.
17:38I know, he's a little bit better.
17:39But I'm in a bit too, I can't end it.
17:42He's a little bit more when he can't.
17:44He's a little bit better.
17:46I know he's a little bit better.
17:48But I can't even, too, but I'll avoid it.
17:49All right, he goes back to you.
17:50bad was it out there more tough than bad why do I feel like you chose the areas
17:59that were hardest hit to search I guess I should have thought that one through a
18:05little bit more you must be exhausted compared to what we did answering phones
18:12ordering a few supplies oh come on I saw well-fed children in clean clothes that
18:18looked very happy I know that was all you're doing so tell me about this fiance

24:10Where the shadows grow tall

24:29In the darkest of times
24:31Love begins here
24:36You know you really should get that dog a leash
24:39Yeah well add it to the list
24:42Holy cow Lauren
24:45How did you build this this fast?
24:47Dane made a few calls
24:50That's a good call
24:52You think?
24:54Yeah absolutely
24:56I've heard you go on about a dozen times about building this yourself
25:00So it's clearly important to you
25:02Wow
25:06I agree thank you
25:08Hey listen also I need to apologize about last night
25:12You know we almost
25:15We almost but we didn't
25:17Right
25:18Right that's the important thing
25:19Yeah because you know emotions were high
25:21I don't know
25:22I guess that just
25:23Well who would have thought
25:26Sanctuary
25:27At night
25:28Would be that
25:30Nice
25:32Shall we say
25:33And the stained glass windows were
25:36Really nice as well
25:38It won't happen again
25:40I bet
25:42Good call
25:44So
25:46What's next for you in this house Miss Lauren?
25:51This house?
25:52Well
25:53Um
25:54Actually I was hoping to recruit a nice strong person to help me lift some heavy furniture
25:59I guess that's me
26:01Alright just a few feet back there
26:04Pivot to your right
26:05Right
26:06And we'll just go right to that wall
26:09Okay right here
26:11Yeah
26:12Amazing
26:17Okay I just need your help with this trunk over here
26:21One or two things huh?
26:37You okay?
26:39Yeah
26:40Oh who doesn't want a chance to remodel
26:43Right?
26:44I did want to do it myself though
26:47Listen I understand
26:48But
26:49Dane's people
26:50They did an amazing job
26:52Okay?
26:53Because they left the entire foundation
26:55They put up the perimeter wall
26:57So you can completely design the layout
26:59I mean you can move the kitchen
27:01From over here
27:02To right here
27:03Get better sunlight during the day
27:05Right here you could add a little uh
27:07Breakfast nook
27:08And uh this
27:10If you extend the mud room out a little bit
27:12You have an extra bedroom
27:14Bedroom or an office?
27:15Or an office
27:16Anything you want
27:17Cullen these are good ideas
27:19I think they're all for tomorrow's work though
27:21Sounds good
27:22I think I'm going to hit the hay
27:25Literally
27:26What do you mean?
27:27I think I'm going to spend the night in the barn again tonight
27:32By yourself?
27:34Well with dance sir
27:35Yeah no
27:36I wasn't implying that I would stay with you
27:38I just
27:39Um
27:40Why not
27:41Go back to the relief center?
27:42You know why?
27:43Because a really nice guy
27:44Helped me fix up
27:45My bedroom in there
27:47And I'd like to embrace that
27:49Well
27:50I'm going back there tonight myself
27:51So if you need a ride
27:52I'd be more than happy
27:53Why?
27:54I thought your house is fine
27:55Yeah no it's fine
27:56I'm just going to go back
27:57In case anybody needs any help from them
27:58And think about
27:59Here
28:00You have
28:01No running water
28:02You don't have a working washroom
28:04I think the relief center will be a better idea
28:07So
28:08Come back
28:09Get there with the townspeople
28:10And
28:11Myself
28:14You flipped me
28:15That's
28:16Good
28:17Come on doctor
28:34Telling to keep it inside
28:36Deep in our hearts
28:40With only a lifetime
28:44Of what you're going to cling to
28:46In this world
28:48In this life
28:50You need someone to hold you
28:53To stay young and stay free
28:56In this world
28:57In this life
29:00You need someone to love you
29:02This is why
29:10A good thing feels like
29:12In this world
29:14In this life
29:15You need someone to love you
29:17This is why
29:18A good thing feels like
29:19This is what a good thing feels like
29:24Hello.
29:28Got you a little lunch?
29:32You're welcome.
29:35So, I have a question for you.
29:37Okay.
29:38Mr. Colin Ladies Man.
29:41How come you haven't found a lady for yourself yet?
29:46Honestly?
29:47Honestly.
29:50My dad.
29:53I remember your dad.
29:55He left a few years back, no?
29:58Yeah.
29:59After he cheated on my mother more than once.
30:03I was the youngest of five boys.
30:05And my mom was...
30:07She didn't have the time or the energy to supervise me.
30:11And younger Colin might have taken advantage of that.
30:15But my mom, after taking care of five boys,
30:18after cooking dinners and cleaning the house
30:21and going through letters from my teachers,
30:23she would actually sit down and tutor me every night.
30:26And it worked.
30:29I got better grades.
30:32Moms.
30:33You gotta love them.
30:34Dad's not so much.
30:38Apparently mine was spending time all over town.
30:45My mom, she never talked about it.
30:48One night we were at my brother's wedding.
30:51And we're sitting there, just the two of us.
30:55And she finally told me everything that he had done.
30:58How badly he had hurt her.
31:02And that was the night.
31:05That was the night that I promised her
31:07I would never be like him.
31:09I would never be my father.
31:13And I might have been the resident ladies man, as you put it,
31:17but I never cheated.
31:19Never.
31:23But you can't spend your whole life
31:24pushing people away, though, Colin.
31:28That's worked so far.
31:30But...
31:30Hey, listen, I want to make a suggestion, okay?
31:32We've made a lot of progress on this house.
31:35Great progress.
31:36Yes, we have.
31:38But we have some pretty big jobs coming up.
31:42Like roofing, electrical, plumbing.
31:47So, with your permission,
31:49I have some friends who could probably help you with that
31:52and get you in your home a little quicker.
31:56Okay, I could be open to that.
31:57Huh?
31:58Lauren, I don't know if you remember any of my old friends,
32:07but they just got done clearing the main road
32:09out to the highway.
32:10You got Dev.
32:11Oh.
32:11You got Sean and Siro.
32:14Yeah, yeah, Dev, good to see you again.
32:16How have you been?
32:17Hey, take it easy.
32:18She's got a fiancΓ©e, you know.
32:19I'm just saying hi.
32:21Guys, this means so much to me, honestly.
32:24Thank you so, so much.
32:25Now, I'll tell Siro what shingles to lift first.
32:28We'll go ahead and get started.
32:33I can't stay steady as the beating of my love
32:38Won't ever wanna waver from your driftwood
32:44Floating up onto the shore
32:47Oh, oh, oh
32:50Either or out of the woods
32:53You stole my heart
33:06What's up?
33:12Hey!
33:12So, um
33:15You and Colin?
33:20We're friends.
33:21What?
33:22Okay, I have a fiancΓ©e
33:24Oh, okay
33:26Why?
33:30Just, you know
33:31I thought I was getting
33:33A vibe
33:36No
33:38No vibe
33:39Okay
33:41No vibe
33:42Why?
33:46Did you
33:46Did you pick up on a vibe or something?
33:50This is grade school
33:51Should I pass a note for you during math class?
33:58Well
33:59Colin kinda likes you
34:00Really?
34:05Really?
34:06Hmm
34:06And you kinda like him?
34:11Yeah
34:11I really like Colin as a friend
34:14Seriously, he's been amazing to me throughout this whole storm situation
34:19Situation
34:19No
34:23As a little kid
34:25You liked him
34:26As a big kid
34:28You liked him
34:29When he moved to Georgia
34:30You liked him
34:32And when he moved back
34:34No surprises there
34:36You liked him
34:38I've got a fiancΓ©e
34:42Okay, Lauren
34:44Thanks so much, you guys
34:52Thank you
34:53Wow
34:58I cannot believe how much progress we've made on this house
35:02Well
35:03The Amish can build a barn in a day
35:05So
35:06By that standard
35:07We're kinda far behind schedule
35:08No, but
35:11Seriously, your friends are really awesome
35:13That zero can really lift heavy things
35:17Yeah, they're alright, I guess
35:19They're alright, and you're alright
35:22Just
35:23Take credit for what an awesome friend you've been
35:25Friend?
35:29Huh?
35:31Yes, you are helping me to rebuild my house
35:34Well, I think I'm gonna spend the night here tonight
35:38There's no interior of the house
35:41How are you gonna do that?
35:41No, no, not in the house
35:42In the barn
35:43Plus, the house has
35:44Running water, gas
35:46Everything I need
35:46By yourself in the barn?
35:49No, with Dancer
35:50Alright, pup
35:51Alright, well
35:53I'll be staying the night at my place
35:55So, you know, if you ever needed a place to crash
36:00Are you trying to spend the night with me?
36:03No
36:03I'm just letting you know
36:06If you didn't feel like staying at the barn by yourself
36:09You have a place, so
36:10Well, that's sweet of you, but
36:11I'm a big girl, I got this
36:13Just offering as a friend
36:16Right, because that's what we are
36:17Exactly
36:18Friends
36:19Okay, well, I'm going to wash up at the house
36:27And then head to the barn
36:28Yeah, great
36:29I'm gonna get in the truck and head back to the cabin
36:31Alright, you can take
36:33Oh, sure
36:35Yes
36:35Alright, well, uh
36:38Good night, friend
36:40Good night
36:40Friends
37:10Friends
37:19Friends
37:22Friends
37:24Colin
37:26She is asleep
37:29In a barn
37:30By herself
37:32What would your
37:32What would your mother think if she knew this?
37:36You know what?
37:37He's not even that good looking
37:38No matter how many times
37:40Zero thinks he catches me checking him out
37:42He's not
37:42He's so amazing, though
37:46He just doesn't see it
37:48He saved entire families out there
37:52He helped rebuild my house
37:56Friends, my friends
38:04That's it
38:06That's it
38:10That's it
38:11That's it
38:19Lauren!
38:21Lauren!
38:23Lauren?
38:25Hello?
38:27Hey, Colin.
38:29It's me.
38:31It's Lauren.
38:33Um, why aren't you answering your questions?
38:35I'm sorry.
38:37I'm sorry.
38:39I'm sorry.
38:41I'm sorry.
38:43I'm sorry.
38:45I'm sorry.
38:47Um, why aren't you answering your door?
38:49Wait, you're at my place?
38:51Wait, you're not at your place?
38:53No, no, I'm at your place.
38:55What are you doing there?
38:57I, uh...
38:59I was worried about you.
39:01Yeah.
39:03Started coming.
39:05Check on you. What are you doing at my place?
39:07I got scared.
39:09Uh, yeah, I just, I was scared staying in the creepy barn by myself.
39:12You said it wasn't creepy.
39:14No, I know, but it turns out it is.
39:16Well...
39:18You're at my place, I'm at your place.
39:22Yeah, that's pretty funny.
39:24Why don't you just, why don't you just crash at my place tonight, and I'll stay here.
39:30Yeah, no, that, um, that sounds great.
39:34Very reasonable.
39:36Um, the, um...
39:38The key to the, the front door is there on the window seal.
39:42We'll all have a big laugh about this tomorrow, Lauren.
39:46I know.
39:48Okay, goodnight, Colin.
39:50It's my sleep, Lauren.
39:52There's a bell.
39:53Yeah.
39:54All right.
39:55There.
39:56There, there.
39:57There.
39:58There.
39:59There.
40:00There.
40:01There.
40:02There.
40:03There.
40:04Wow.
40:31I remember this.
40:34I can't do this.
40:49Dancer?
40:54Is this you, buddy?
41:12What are you doing, Colin?
41:21Sleeping in a pink frilly bed.
41:23That's what you're doing.
41:24What are you doing here?
41:30I came here to talk to you.
41:46Okay.
41:47Is everything all right?
41:51No, actually, it's not.
41:53Okay.
41:54I...
41:55I really like you, Colin.
41:58I really like you.
42:02And actually, I came to apologize to you, too, for hating you all of those years after that stupid day of the picnic.
42:10Because I was just embarrassed, and I was really insecure, and I spent years trying to avoid you, thinking that you were this horrible person, even though you're not at all.
42:21I was a horrible person.
42:25You're not a horrible person, Colin.
42:28You are smart.
42:30Right?
42:31You're kind.
42:32You're a leader.
42:34And, okay, I saw the furniture in your house.
42:37Wow.
42:38Talk about talented.
42:40And you listen to me.
42:43You care about what I have to say.
42:47You care about other people, Colin.
42:49Do you know how rare that is?
42:51I like you.
42:56And if I'm being honest, I think you like me, too.
43:01Lauren, you have a fiancΓ©.
43:05I mean, I saw his pictures up in your bedroom.
43:08Your barn room.
43:10Whatever.
43:11You two seem incredibly happy together.
43:14I mean, you deserve him.
43:17All right?
43:18Because I was awful.
43:19No, you were just pushing me away like you're doing right now.
43:22Lauren, how could I not like you?
43:25Tell me.
43:27You're at the top of the class.
43:30The best catch.
43:32The most beautiful woman in town.
43:34You dedicate your whole life to helping children.
43:37You're smart.
43:39Talented.
43:40You're an absolute boss with a nail gun.
43:44You give back to other people.
43:46And you deserve the best.
43:49And, Lauren, that's not me.
43:51History has shown that it's not me.
43:54You deserve Dane.
43:56I broke up with Dane.
43:59When?
44:01That day that he brought the crew over and I asked him not to.
44:07Why did you do that, Lauren?
44:09My gut.
44:11And because he never listened to me.
44:14Why don't you say something sooner?
44:16Because I was so tired of relationships, Colin.
44:21You know?
44:23And then there's this incredible guy standing right in front of me.
44:27And...
44:28And I couldn't help but fall for him.
44:32Colin.
44:33I...
44:34I think I'm falling in love with you.
44:47I...
44:48I...
44:49I can't do this.
44:50I'm sorry.
44:51I thought I...
44:52I could.
44:53But I can't.
44:54I...
44:55I...
44:56I can't do this.
44:57I'm sorry.
44:58I thought I...
44:59I could.
45:00But I can't.
45:01I could.
45:02I can't.
45:16Don't wanna do something I can't take back.
45:22Don't wanna leave without seeing you.
45:28I can't bear to look in your eyes.
45:35All I see is the road that I didn't choose.
45:42In another lifetime, in some forgotten dream.
45:51In another lifetime, maybe it was meant to be.
45:57In another lifetime.
45:58In another lifetime.
45:59Sometimes I wonder where I'd end up.
46:16If I follow this dark angel
46:23Into the unknown years we've planned
46:30Living ghosts of a life that could have been
46:36Dancer?
46:44What are you doing here, buddy?
46:46Is Lauren here?
46:48Lauren!
46:51Supposed to run off again.
46:57What do you need?
46:58Yeah, um, Dancer's actually here at my place.
47:02Sorry about that.
47:03No, no, it's fine.
47:04You're just supposed to run off again.
47:09Listen, if you want, I could, um, you know, bring him back to your place.
47:15Could you drop him at my friend Paige's?
47:17Paige's book, yeah.
47:18Yeah, that's, that's fine.
47:23Um, Lauren, listen.
47:33Paige, hey.
47:35Dancer, you've been on your adventures again.
47:38Yes, yes.
47:39I'll keep him until Lauren gets back from teaching.
47:41Thanks.
47:43Paige, could you tell Lauren something for me?
47:48Tell Lauren what?
47:49Could you tell Lauren just to get this dog a leash?
47:52Thanks.
47:54Oh my God!
48:08Oh my God!
48:09Oh my God!
48:13Answer, I don't have time.
48:35What, am I interrupting?
48:37No.
48:38Slash your dog's off.
48:40All right.
48:41What's going on?
48:44You know, calling for a smart guy, you can be pretty dumb sometimes.
48:49Man, you can't blame your dad for everything.
48:52I can blame him for a lot.
48:54Come on.
48:55Just talk to her.
48:57Okay, tell her how you feel.
48:59She doesn't want to talk to me.
49:01She doesn't want to see me.
49:02That ship has sailed, my friend.
49:05Well, that's not necessarily true.
49:08What do you mean?
49:09Building her house.
49:11When you're together, there's like a...
49:13There's a vibe.
49:15There's a vibe?
49:16Yeah, I woke up in high school.
49:18The vibe is serious.
49:19It's just my gut, but I think there's still a chance, man.
49:23You don't understand, Zero.
49:25You won't ever understand.
49:27No, Colin.
49:28You don't understand.
49:29What are you doing?
49:32What are you doing?
49:34Big guts.
49:37Sutter!
49:38Hey, buddy.
49:39Hey, listen.
49:40Not your turn to talk.
49:41We've known Lauren's family for what?
49:4440, 50 years?
49:45I know, Sutter.
49:46I'm not doing it.
49:47Listen, listen.
49:48You were a teenager when we moved back here from Georgia.
49:51And since then, there's only been one woman.
49:54Only one.
49:56Lauren.
49:57The problem is, you think you're not good enough, but it's not true.
50:02Sutter, what Dad did was...
50:04Listen, shut up.
50:04I'm not talking about Dad.
50:06I'm talking about you.
50:07You're a good man.
50:09You always have been.
50:13I don't need to tell you what Mom and Dad went through when they were...
50:15Listen, hold on.
50:16Mom, she talks more about the good years than the bad years.
50:22With what happened to Mom, I promised her I would never hurt somebody like Dad hurt her.
50:27And you won't.
50:29You won't.
50:30You are not Dad.
50:34Tell me about Lauren.
50:35What?
50:36Well, I can't stop thinking about her.
50:39If that's what you mean.
50:40I, uh...
50:42I...
50:44I just want to be with her.
50:48All the time.
50:49I mean, seeing...
50:50Seeing that girl accomplish something, it's...
50:54Something to behold where she gets a smile on her face.
50:57You know, it's...
50:58Sutter, I can't stop thinking about her.
51:04Well, there she is.
51:05Teaching a bunch of third graders.
51:06And there's a man on his way to maybe take her away from me forever.
51:10Do you really love her?
51:12With all my heart.
51:14Yeah.
51:15Then don't let Dad's behavior stop you from maybe being with her forever.
51:20Can I show you something?
51:23I'll put it up.
51:24I made that.
51:25You made this?
51:26I ain't surprised.
51:27It's what I do.
51:28Wow.
51:29Think she'll like it?
51:30Yeah.
51:31Think it'll fit?
51:32You don't know if you don't try.
51:38You're right.
51:40Let's go.
51:45How's my Lauren?
51:47Dane, what are you doing here?
51:49I came to apologize.
51:50I want to make this work.
51:52Me and you.
51:54Dane, we talked about this.
51:56You were right.
51:57I should have listened to you.
51:59I should never have sent those guys to build your house for you or sent you that furniture or that Italian marble tile.
52:05It's just my way of taking care of you.
52:07And yet you took this long to get here.
52:10You chose your job, Dane.
52:13Look.
52:14Look, I'm here now.
52:15I don't want to make this work.
52:17I am listening.
52:19But it's so much more than that.
52:22You know, after the storm hit, I realized what's important to me.
52:30And I also realized what's important to you.
52:33And those two things just aren't the same.
52:40I love you.
52:41And I loved you.
52:43But your life is all condos, right?
52:47And big city living.
52:48And I'm all little kids.
52:50We can make this place work.
52:51We're going to get a place here.
52:53We're going to buy a home.
52:55And you're going to design it.
52:56And it's going to be fantastic.
52:58I already have a house here.
52:59I have a home, actually.
53:02A home that I built myself.
53:07I'm sorry, Dane.
53:11No, Lauren, I'm sorry.
53:34Lauren!
53:35Call in?
53:39Lauren.
53:43Lauren.
53:44Lauren, I'm so sorry.
53:46I'm sorry for pushing you away five years ago.
53:49Lauren, you're the most amazing woman I've ever met.
53:55Ever since I was a kid, I was always my best when I was with you.
53:59And I'm a better man when I am with you.
54:04Lauren.
54:06I've got to spend the rest of my life with you.
