00:00Previously on The Way Home.
00:02We're at my wedding.
00:03When have we met before this?
00:05Well, if you don't know the answer, kitty,
00:06then it hasn't happened yet.
00:0865 there they thrive.
00:1065 in 25.
00:13Dad, give back to me.
00:14Are you?
00:15I will find the perfect moment.
00:17I jumped for love.
00:19Go, go, go, said the bird.
00:20I must follow.
00:22The clock inscription.
00:24From the same poem.
00:25What if your mom isn't really gone?
00:27She just...
00:27Time traveled.
00:28Maybe these letters will stop if I disappear.
00:31Oh, God, Jacob.
00:32It's going to be okay, gal.
00:33How do you know that, Sam?
00:35I just... do.
01:08I wish he was here for this.
01:10He's with us in Spear.
01:12I know it.
01:15Come on.
01:17It's almost time for the I do's.
01:19Today's going to be the best day.
01:30What if your dad was wrong?
01:32And your mom isn't really gone.
01:34She just...
01:34Jumped and time traveled.
01:37Kat, wait.
01:38Hold on.
01:38Why?
01:39Elliot, if your mom jumped,
01:41then that means she could be out there.
01:43Just let's...
01:44Take a minute.
01:45Alright?
01:45What do we think will actually happen if we do this?
01:48The pond will take us where we need to go.
01:50And maybe that's to Tessa Augustine.
01:52I mean, we have to try, right?
01:53The clock.
01:54Elliot, it's message.
01:55Your mom wants you to find her.
02:07One...
02:08Two...
02:09Three.
02:12Two.
02:14Two.
02:17Two.
02:29Are we all here?
02:30Yeah, I think we are.
02:31We're here.
02:35Oh, my God.
02:36Look.
02:38Oh, no.
02:49What is that?
02:50My mom's note.
02:51Which means this baby's.
02:54Me.
02:57Danny, I'm sorry.
02:58This is not a good time.
02:59I need to go find Jacob.
03:00I just saw him.
03:01That's why I'm here.
03:02Saw him where?
03:02The bus stop.
03:03I just drove by.
03:04A bus was arriving.
03:05Jake was there.
03:06He had a bag.
03:07Is this because of Louis?
03:08What did he do to Jake to make him leave town?
03:11Like, I'm so sorry.
03:15I will stay on the farm and help however I can.
03:18However long Jake's gone.
03:19Promise.
03:20Hey, girl.
03:21Just out for a walk.
03:22I wanted to check in.
03:24Jacob's on a bus leaving town.
03:25I know the route.
03:26I think I can stop him if I can drive fast enough.
03:28All right.
03:29Let's go get him.
03:38Mr. Augustine?
03:39Are you home?
03:41Kat.
03:42Dad's truck is gone.
03:43So is his fishing gear.
03:44He's out on the water.
03:47My dad was...
03:48away on a job.
03:50My mom knew that.
03:54She still left me.
03:57Only one more place we can try.
04:07However!
04:10However!
04:11She still left me.
04:17I know.
04:34I know.
04:37She still left me.
04:40I know.
04:40You don't sound surprised to see, Mika.
04:43Why weren't they surprised?
04:45What do they know about my mom?
04:58I can't believe you're doing this.
04:59The feeling is mutual.
05:00Where are you going?
05:02I'll know when I get there, OK?
05:04Now, I have some money.
05:05And even with an arson charge on my permanent record.
05:07Nothing is going to come of that.
05:08We can use the will against Lewis.
05:10You don't have to leave your family.
05:13Family's why I'm leaving.
05:15Mom, those letters are because of me and the lie
05:17that I made you tell about where I was those years gone.
05:20Oh, God, Jacob.
05:22Now those letters.
05:23Those letters are the push I didn't know I needed.
05:26We both need to know that I can build a life for myself here
05:30in this time.
05:32Please.
05:34Mom, please, you need to let me go.
05:37Fine.
05:38I'm not going to fight to keep you if you don't want to be kept.
05:41I will call you as soon as I find a place to land.
05:48I love you, Mom.
05:51I love you, too.
05:53It's not enough now, is it?
06:08Why didn't you tell us about these letters?
06:10I thought I was protecting the family.
06:13Now Jacob thinks he's doing the same.
06:15We need to report these to the police.
06:18Later, maybe.
06:19Right now, tell me what those wet clothes are about.
06:22Um, well, they're about, uh, Elliot's mom.
06:28We don't think that she left town in 1983.
06:31We think that she jumped in the pond.
06:34And the only way that she could jump is with a Landry.
06:39Wait, you're telling me that Tessa left Elliot on our porch and time-traveled?
06:45No.
06:46I put Elliot on the porch, Mom.
06:48You?
06:49Why?
06:50Because Tessa left him at the pond.
06:57Please, just, just think, who could have jumped with Tessa?
07:03It didn't have to be a Landry from 83, Kat.
07:07My mom could have jumped with a Landry who was time-traveling themselves.
07:11I'm so sorry, Elliot.
07:13We kept you till your father got home.
07:15You were safe.
07:17I never thought...
07:18It's fine, Del.
07:20I think I'm, I'm done talking about my mom.
07:24I'm done with all of it.
07:25Elliot, no, just, let, let's just take...
07:27She left me in the woods, Kat.
07:30She didn't care if I lived or died.
07:32So wherever she wound up, I don't particularly care.
07:38And whoever the Landry was who took her there, I don't want to know.
07:42I don't want to know.
08:12lives a place where only me.
08:15Hey, Miss Singer-Songwriter.
08:18Landry Express is leaving for downtown Port Haven,
08:22and you need a ride, right?
08:24But I was making progress, I think.
08:27Stop messing with perfection.
08:30There's only 48 hours left of you as a high schooler
08:33who does as mom says.
08:35So let's go.
08:50Morning, Del.
08:52Hey, uh, Alice left yet?
08:54Oh, ow!
08:55I'm fine.
08:56I'm good.
08:57Did you break anything?
08:59Uh, just ego.
09:01What is all this?
09:03Uh, not much.
09:04Just a small personal project.
09:06Small?
09:07Right.
09:08I can see that.
09:09Uh, I brought the goods.
09:11Alice will appreciate that.
09:13I can't believe she graduates in two days.
09:15How'd that happen?
09:17Time is a cruel mistress.
09:19Well, I am thankful that you all have taken time off
09:22from learning that the literal way.
09:23Well, we all needed a break from the pond.
09:26Gotta focus on more important things.
09:28Like, town council has just signed off on giving me
09:31use of the park gazebo, and JJ confirmed he can play that night.
09:34So, come the end of summer, Kat will have the perfect proposal.
09:38It's all fallen into place.
09:39Well, so are you, it seems.
09:41Yeah.
09:42Uh, are you planting something?
09:44Elliot?
09:45Could you bring what I need?
09:47Yes.
09:47You go for the cause.
09:49My contribution's in the car.
09:51You guys are the best.
09:53Oh.
09:54Hey, so you're coming to dinner tonight, right?
09:56Because Brady's here and I need my wingman.
09:58I will bring both wings.
10:00Don't worry.
10:00Okay.
10:07Bring wine, too.
10:09Oh, yeah, that's good.
10:13Oh, I love this one.
10:15Turn it up.
10:17Where will you go, my darling daughter?
10:22I'm gonna live down by the water.
10:25If I ever could find the time, never no reason or rhyme.
10:31I'm gonna live down by the water.
10:37God, it seems like yesterday when we arrived here.
10:40I mean, how can this be my last summer with my kid before she leaves me for college?
10:45Wait.
10:46I need to say hi to my baby.
10:50What?
10:50No!
10:51How could it be sold?
10:53It was sitting there for months.
10:55I'm sorry, Ally.
10:56Such is life, right?
10:58Rife with disappointment.
11:00Oh, not this again.
11:01I just don't get it.
11:02I mean, what is Elliot waiting for?
11:05He has the ring.
11:06I know it.
11:07He knows that I know it.
11:08And it's just sitting there in that stupid fish lamp.
11:10Just popped the question already.
11:12No?
11:13Ah!
11:14Why are boyfriends so complicated?
11:16Mom, things will happen when they're meant to.
11:20Okay?
11:20Maybe it's not the boyfriends who are complicated.
11:23Maybe it's us who makes them complicated.
11:25Nah, you just lucked out with yours.
11:29Hey.
11:36Hi.
11:38Yes, yes.
11:39Eyes all around.
11:40Uh, can you help?
11:42This fundraiser is draining my will to live.
11:44Why are we hosting again?
11:46To celebrate how much I've pulled you out of your anti-social shell this year.
11:49And also, it's tradition.
11:51Yeah.
11:52That makes sense.
11:53The leaving class raises coin to get something fun for the school that we're never going
11:57to enjoy.
11:57It's to thank a school who's churned out some pretty amazing grads.
12:01Like these guys.
12:02A category that includes me, apparently.
12:08I feel like a total geriatric.
12:10Hey.
12:11My sophomore self had a huge crush on that senior.
12:14Yeah.
12:15I'm really sorry I'm missing the grad.
12:16This family reading it's killing me.
12:18Alice.
12:19How's your song coming?
12:20You're still singing an original tomorrow night, right?
12:22Uh, yeah.
12:23Yeah.
12:24That's the point.
12:26Anyway, let's get back to this.
12:30Oh.
12:32And the award for the cutest small town couple goes to?
12:3575's our year.
12:37We have so much to look forward to.
12:38Not just grad, but our wedding.
12:41You finally moving out of Lingermore?
12:43And into a house with your mom and grandma.
12:45Okay.
12:47So, it isn't perfect.
12:52But from now on, it's you, me, forever, Deli.
12:57We can celebrate our special moments however we want.
13:00Make our own traditions.
13:02Because this life is ours now.
13:03No one else's.
13:12Come on.
13:12Where did you put it?
13:17Just look at our talented high school grad going to her dream college, huh?
13:21Hudson Performing Arts School of New York.
13:24I love saying it.
13:25Dad, it wasn't just talent that got me in.
13:27Max helped me with my grades, and Noah helped me with my audition tape.
13:31Yeah.
13:32Sure.
13:32However it happened, I couldn't be more excited, more proud, and more willing to foot the bill.
13:39That old chess map.
13:40Yeah.
13:41But listen, at least Alice is not an international student.
13:43Those kids, they get gouged.
13:45But listen, even if you were Canadian, I would still cover the fees, okay?
13:48This is your dream and you can't put a price on it.
13:50You sure?
13:50Because you're mentioning the price quite a bit.
13:53Like, I'm just happy that I can make it happen, okay?
13:56The last thing I would want is to put any pressure on you, Kat.
13:58I know how hard you work for what you make.
14:01Yeah, a small-town paper gig can't compete with a high-powered, lucrative career and, what's it, generational wealth?
14:07Family money can only get you so far, Elliot.
14:09How far can you get?
14:10Show me.
14:11All right.
14:11I've heard enough about how much the fall is gonna cost and how far people are gonna go.
14:17Summer hasn't even started, and I, for one, don't wanna wish it away.
14:21Hear, hear.
14:22We're all looking forward to celebrating tomorrow night, Alice.
14:25High school graduations don't come along every day.
14:29Well, I would like to make a toast to my beautiful daughter, Allie.
14:35I can't tell you how it feels to see you taking this next step into the future of your dreams.
14:43It's surreal.
14:44It's, um, it's incredible.
14:49But it's also a step out this door.
14:54So it's just, it's a bit heartbreaking, too.
14:59But I am so very proud of you.
15:03And I-I promise, um, when we do say goodbye, I will do it with a smile on my face.
15:11Cheers, baby.
15:13Cheers.
15:14Cheers.
15:15Cheers.
15:16Cheers.
15:16That is the bittersweet gift of being a mom.
15:19Loving hard, then letting go.
15:23The bond between a mother and a child.
15:26There is nothing like it.
15:38Oh!
15:41Wait!
15:43Please!
15:44Don't go!
15:46No!
15:48No!
15:49Shh.
15:51No!
15:57Ah...
16:04The bond...
16:46Mom?
16:48You're using a pond?
16:49Uh, fine.
16:52Yes.
16:52Okay.
16:52I haven't totally been respecting Elliot's desire to ditch the idea of finding Tessa.
16:58Since when?
17:00Since the ice melted.
17:02It's just a jump only every once in a while, okay?
17:06And look, it doesn't even matter because it hasn't worked.
17:10But I know that I go back, Allie.
17:12Fern told me as much at Mom and Dad's wedding.
17:14She met me in another era.
17:17And what if that trip leads me to finding Tessa?
17:20I really want to do that for Elliot.
17:26Oh.
17:27Oh.
17:28Oh, thank goodness.
17:29Thank goodness.
17:31Oh.
17:35Oh.
17:38Oh.
17:42Oh.
17:43Oh.
17:45Oh.
17:47Oh.
17:49Hurry, hurry, hurry.
17:57Hey, Del.
17:58Oh.
17:59Yeah.
18:01Got a package for Alice.
18:02Thanks, Ruby.
18:06What is Jacob doing in Toronto?
18:08I mean, is he working there? At what?
18:11And how long has he been there?
18:12I'm sure there are answers in here.
18:16It's the Alice book. Same edition.
18:22They're pristine.
18:25Wait. Here, he wrote an inscription.
18:28To Alice. Found these in a used bookstore
18:30and knew it was a sign.
18:32Now you can bring a set into your future.
18:34I know it will be somewhere you always needed to go.
18:38That's it?
18:39Great. Nice, Jake.
18:43I'm so sorry, Mom.
18:57I gave your photos a place of honor.
18:59Yes, thank you. It's our ages on full display.
19:03You've done a fantastic job, you two.
19:05It's gonna be a very special evening.
19:07I couldn't agree more.
19:08Oh.
19:09Louis.
19:10Hi.
19:11Elle.
19:12A drink, please.
19:18I see Jacob didn't make it back for graduation.
19:22Still too afraid of me?
19:23Any fear that we had disappeared when that will brought you to your knees.
19:28Heh.
19:28It's cute.
19:29That you think a moldy piece of paper could take away my estate.
19:33Well, it's cute that you think we want it.
19:35Especially when teasing you with the threat of Susanna's will
19:38is so much more fun than actually using it.
19:42The only funny thing is how we've had to fake nice for the sake of our kids.
19:46I'm just happy that Alice has been there for Max this year.
19:49You know, especially with your very messy divorce.
19:52Guess what?
19:53Guess what?
19:53Bids to spend a day with me.
19:56Just hit triple digits, baby.
19:58I still can't believe you have such a successful podcast.
20:01Well, what can I say, right?
20:02People love ghost stories.
20:04And the sound of my voice.
20:09Okay, sir.
20:10I have a pitch for you.
20:12Rumor is your vineyard renovations include opening up the Lingermore tunnels.
20:16Yeah.
20:16I've decided to lean into the estate's illicit past.
20:20Please tell me that you know your tunnels ghost story then.
20:23This year marks the 100th anniversary of the big explosion down there.
20:27Homemade booze making gone wrong, bootlegger died, body never found.
20:31It's a big cautionary tale to stop fishermen from going rogue during Prohibition.
20:36Yes, it's all very charming.
20:38Please, let me do a Boo Brunswick podcast in the tunnels when they're open about the fifth body.
20:45Well, I'm bringing in a marketing manager soon, so maybe they can handle you and your ideas.
20:50Oh.
20:50Until then.
20:52Oh, okay, okay, okay.
20:53I'll have my people call your people.
20:55Oh, he does not know who he's dealing with.
20:58Oh, I know, and I love that for him.
21:00We reached our fundraising goal tonight.
21:04And the biggest spender was my father, Lewis Goodwin, who went absurdly overboard on this
21:12super sketchy box of old film reels.
21:15Generously donated by Joyce Hollier Oates from the Roxy Theatre Archives.
21:20Okay.
21:22I'm now going to pass the mic over to someone who actually knows how to use it.
21:27Before she makes it big in the Big Apple, you'll all get to say you knew her when.
21:32Alice DeJuan.
21:34Yeah!
21:35Woo!
21:40Hi.
21:41I'm going to sing something of my own tonight.
21:45Hope you like it.
22:00Uh, actually, sorry.
22:02I'm going to sing something that's a little bit more on brand for tonight.
22:07A song written by a Port Haven High grad who's very close to my heart.
22:13My grandpa.
22:16I know a path to the past.
22:20Is it a secret worth knowing?
22:25It's a world where I've made my mistakes.
22:29I was pulled down below, sunken and cold.
22:34There's a lesson to learn from yesterday.
22:40And the future could be our way out.
22:43I'll find you somehow.
22:48So I just breathe.
22:51Hope the water brings you back to me.
22:56And wish for this wish to come true.
23:00Let the water bring me back to you.
23:22I know it will be somewhere you always needed to go.
23:26Hope you're right.
23:49Come on, Allie. We have to go.
23:58Oh, my goodness. Look at you. You're so grown up.
24:03Yeah. Too bad I felt like a total kid last night.
24:05It was like I was back on that art school stage in Minneapolis.
24:09Stop, okay? That was your past.
24:11And you were about to start your future.
24:13But just promise me that not everything has to change, okay?
24:16But no matter what, I'll still have this.
24:21I'll still have us.
24:23Of course you will.
24:24And, uh, maybe something else.
24:29So, Mom, Elliot, and I chipped in.
24:32I mean, look, she's the perfect mix of your two favorite eras.
24:35Are you serious?
24:38Go. Go see it. Go see it.
24:44To Alice in the class of 2026.
24:47Cheers!
24:49Woo-hoo!
24:52It's gone.
24:54Oh.
24:55Uh, Kathleen, what did she need a car for?
24:58I mean, she's moving to the least car-friendly city on Earth.
25:00It'll stay here, Brady.
25:02Just waiting for her to visit.
25:04Like I will be.
25:06I still can't believe I flaked last night.
25:08Just be kind to yourself, okay?
25:09You did amazing.
25:10The crowd loved you.
25:11By the way, you look amazing, too.
25:13Poor guy.
25:14I've been there.
25:16What?
25:17No, no.
25:18Max is so not an Elliot.
25:20I mean, he's not head over heels for Alice.
25:22Head over heels?
25:23Is that what you think?
25:24Oh, I don't think.
25:26I know.
25:26Fine.
25:27I won't deny it.
25:29Time to put a ring on it, bud!
25:34All right.
25:35I think I collected everything we need.
25:39It's about making your own traditions, right?
25:42So what do you got over there?
25:44I got snapshots of 75.
25:45Like current events.
25:46And today's best hits.
25:48Brought to you by the best diner 1975 has to offer.
25:52So what are you writing?
25:54I'll tell you when it's done.
25:56But it's for our future, too.
26:03Hey, I have a surprise.
26:06It's a tradition.
26:07Cole and I tried to start.
26:09That is what the holes were about.
26:12It's a time capsule.
26:14To commemorate 1975, the year that Colton and I graduated and started our life together.
26:20Oh.
26:21So much in here takes me back.
26:24But, um, most importantly...
26:29This.
26:31It's a letter I wrote to our future child.
26:35That was the point.
26:37Um, Colton and I were gonna dig up the capsule and read it to our child when they graduated.
26:47But here we are.
26:50So I'd like to read it to you, Alice.
26:56To my little one.
26:58Who will you be when this tent gets opened?
27:00And what will your dream be?
27:02Where here is mine.
27:04It's you.
27:05Pure and simple.
27:07And if this letter's been opened, it means my dreams come true.
27:12I hope I was a good mom.
27:14Who saw you.
27:16Heard you.
27:19Who didn't let her own wounds get in the way of healing yours.
27:24Oh, I hope your life will be filled with the same magic and joy as mine has been.
27:29But how can it not be when Colton and I are a part of you?
27:36When you were created with such love.
27:43Such hope and light.
27:47How could your future be filled with anything else?
27:52It will be, I promise.
27:54All my love always.
27:56It's your mom.
27:59Delilah.
28:02I know I didn't follow through with this tradition.
28:04But I hope you will, Alice.
28:06Write a letter to your child.
28:09I'll try, Grandma.
28:17How did I not remember what was in that letter?
28:19Oh, God.
28:20I've pushed Cat away again.
28:22This is how it's gonna be in the fall.
28:24Me, here, alone.
28:26I know tonight was emotional, Del, but let yourself be happy.
28:30You've got an incredible life.
28:33I love Sam.
28:34He's a man of routine.
28:36But I like it.
28:38Lovely evening, huh?
28:40But I wouldn't mind getting back to routine.
28:44Absolutely.
28:45Absolutely.
28:46Though I don't know how lovely an evening it was.
28:48Okay.
28:49Okay.
28:50Shake it off.
28:52Huh?
28:52Cat is an adult.
28:53Alice is about to be.
28:55It is high time us real grown-ups had some real fun.
29:00Oh.
29:01Oh, my.
29:02Listen to that.
29:03Doesn't that one take your back now?
29:05Remember?
29:08Stop.
29:09Stop.
29:10Please.
29:11Get out.
29:13Get out!
29:14Bill?
29:15You okay?
29:17Yeah.
29:17I'm fine.
29:21Your family's grab pics are upstairs.
29:23I fully grabbed them during cleanup.
29:24I'm taking Noah's photo, though, for blackmail purposes.
29:28Sorry.
29:29The only thing you should be sorry about is laughing at me
29:31when I told you to bring a bathing suit.
29:33A cove party ends one of two ways.
29:35Either it's a police raid or a late night swim.
29:37I don't know.
29:38Running into the ocean fully clothed felt pretty epic.
29:41But, uh, lesson learned.
29:44I should have listened.
29:45Yeah, well, that's the problem.
29:47You never do.
29:53You should have performed your song.
29:55What?
29:55Last night.
29:57Why do you keep all that talent hidden under a barrel, Alice?
30:01I just got nervous.
30:03I don't think it's a big deal.
30:04It kind of is a big deal, though.
30:06If you don't believe in yourself, you'll never succeed.
30:09You get that, right?
30:10Why don't you just support me, Max?
30:12You're my best friend.
30:14I don't get why you have to push so hard all the time.
30:16Because someone has to.
30:17You think that Noah just goes easy on me.
30:18Well, it's because he loves me.
30:20You go too easy on yourself, Alice.
30:23I pushed you all year, but I won't be here come fall.
30:26So you'll be going at it alone.
30:29Are you ready for that?
30:30Yeah, I'm actually ready right now.
30:32So, I'll get the photos, and I will prove it.
30:55Alice, come on in. Join me.
31:00These, the reels that you want at the auction?
31:02Screen tests.
31:05My ancestor tried to put Port Haven on the map back then by bringing Hollywood to New Brunswick to make
31:11a movie.
31:12The script was written.
31:14Actors were cast, but history wasn't on his side.
31:17The film was silent, you see, and talkies had started to come on the scene.
31:23So, on the first day of production, investors pulled the plug.
31:29And now, all that remains are these.
31:331925 Port Haven, frozen in time.
31:38Look at the time capsule.
31:42Excuse me a moment.
31:50Excuse me a moment.
32:32Alice?
32:33There you are.
32:36Thanks.
32:38The reel ended.
32:39So, thank you for the screening.
32:44Good night.
32:58Stop it there.
33:00See?
33:01Mom, you're gonna travel to 1925.
33:03To meet Fern.
33:04Just like she said.
33:06You two look so scared.
33:07What do you think you said to her?
33:09I have no idea.
33:12Can you play it back again?
33:20Oh, my God.
33:22Look at her.
33:24This is not the Fern that I knew in 74.
33:26Or the one that Mom and Dad always talked about.
33:30That Fern, she was a homebody.
33:32I mean, she never left the farm.
33:35She raised her son all alone.
33:37But this Fern?
33:39It's mesmerizing.
33:431925.
33:4425.
33:4565, there they thrive.
33:4865 and 25.
33:52Fern told me about this in one of her weird, rhymey things.
33:55The 25.
33:56I mean, I think she meant 1925.
33:59But then what would the 65 be?
34:01The wall that the clock was hidden in
34:03was put up in the 1920s, right?
34:05Your mom was here in that era.
34:08And now we have proof that I go there, too.
34:10So, could the 65 be about her?
34:13Maybe that was Tessa's age.
34:15No, look.
34:16My mom jumped at 24 in 1983.
34:19And she's been gone 43 years.
34:21So, following the pawn's rule that the time spent in the past
34:23is equal to the time you miss in the present,
34:24that would make her 67, not 65.
34:28Yeah, but, I mean, Fern could have been off by two years, right?
34:31You always say that she's a bit of a kook.
34:33Look, no.
34:34I just, I don't think it's...
34:35Come on, Elliot.
34:35This can't just be a coincidence.
34:37She left me, Kat!
34:40All right?
34:47I'm all done.
34:49Here it is.
34:52And if things go according to plan,
34:55we'll be digging this up in 18 years.
34:58Cole!
35:00A letter.
35:03From your brother.
35:05What?
35:08Our wedding invite?
35:09I sent it to him.
35:10Did he seriously send it back?
35:11Wait, Cole, look.
35:14See you at the wedding, brother.
35:15Love, Griffin.
35:17Is he really coming home for it?
35:18How about adding that to the capsule?
35:22This is about our future, Grandma.
35:24At this rate, whatever kid we have
35:25won't even know Griffin Landry's name.
35:28Cole, dearie.
35:29Like it or not, your brother's a part of you.
35:36Maybe by the time we open this thing,
35:38Griffin and I will have a better relationship.
35:40By the time we open this,
35:41we'll be a family all our own.
35:46All right.
35:55Oh, just saw Brady off.
35:57Let's celebrate with some tea.
35:59Yeah.
36:05The letter.
36:07It should have been for you.
36:09All those words in there,
36:10they were meant for you.
36:12I wish I had heard them back then.
36:15I know, Catherine.
36:16I'm so sorry.
36:18It's okay.
36:19And thank you.
36:21It's no excuse, but my mother did the same thing
36:24after she and my father lost everything.
36:26She lost me in her grief.
36:28She didn't even come to my graduation.
36:32But I suppose I was barely yet yours.
36:36Generational trauma.
36:37That's what the kids call it, right?
36:39Huh.
36:40Maybe we're just bound to repeat past mistakes.
36:43Don't turn into our parents.
36:44Well, I think you've done a great job at breaking the mold.
36:48Me?
36:49History repeats itself.
36:51I've been grieving Jacob for months,
36:53and at the end of the summer,
36:55I'm gonna lose you and Alice.
36:57Mom, no.
36:59It will not be like it was.
37:01I mean, nobody's really gone this time.
37:05You know, Alice is just a phone call away.
37:07I'll be a walkover from Elle's.
37:09And as far as Jake,
37:12you know, I send him things.
37:13Text messages about us and what we're doing.
37:16Because I refuse to consider him gone.
37:20I hope you're right.
37:23Oh.
37:24Is that what I think it is?
37:26Yep. Ready to be buried.
37:28I just hope you do a better job than me and Colton,
37:31and remember where you bury it.
37:33I definitely have a place.
38:21Tessa.
38:23Cooper.
38:24Tessa.
38:25Cooper.
38:28So the suitcase was buried?
38:30But packed with all the stuff.
38:32Like she was going away, but why?
38:35I found these in here too.
38:37They're from Evelyn's deck.
38:39So did Tessa and Evelyn know each other?
38:42Yes, they did.
38:45Oh, Tessa, you're so young.
38:48Okay.
38:51Okay, so this says that she was born in 1961.
38:55Elle, didn't you say 59?
38:57She was two years younger.
38:59Which means Tessa would have been 65, not 67.
39:0465 and 25.
39:05Elle, do you know what this means?
39:07It means that she is there.
39:09And Fern told me, which means they must know each other.
39:13This is why I go back, is to find your mom.
39:17You know, this is the first photo I've ever seen of me and her.
39:23My dad got rid of all the photos when she left.
39:25Threw them all away.
39:27The blanket.
39:30The clock was wrapped in it when I found it in the wall.
39:34My mom...
39:36Kept it.
39:39She must have taken it with her when she jumped.
39:42She wanted to take a part of you with her, Elliot.
39:45I want to jump.
39:48Good luck.
39:49Go get your mom.
40:03Elliot?
40:05Elliot!
40:06What happened to mom?
40:08Don just took her.
40:11She's gone.
40:13But...
40:14But something bad happens back then.
40:16We saw it!
40:17What are you doing?
40:18Ellen!
40:20Too much.
40:21You're my little one.
40:22If you're anything like me, I bet you're scared right now as you face your next big chapter.
40:28The pod wouldn't let me go.
40:31I wanted to find my mom.
40:33I wish I could say I have it all figured out.
40:35But I don't.
40:36Not yet.
40:37But...
40:37The one thing I do know...
40:40You won't face that path into the future alone.
40:44Family is walking with you.
40:46Always.
40:49Remember that, little one.
40:52If ever you feel lost, there will always be a road that will lead you home to family.
40:59And when exactly are you from, dearie?
41:19Show me the way to go home...
41:22I'm tired and wanna go to bed.
41:25I had a little drink about an hour ago
41:28And it's gone right to my head
41:30Wherever I may run out my hip
41:32On land or sea or home
