00:00Before I turned to 25, I was living an ordinary life until I met him.
00:08Be mine.
00:10He brought me into a whole new world.
00:15Grandma used to say this land was blessed, that someone great would rise from here.
00:20Look at it now, nothing but weeds.
00:22This grave belongs to the Carter family, a hard-loved family.
00:25The eldest and his parents died young, left behind just the second son.
00:30But he did them proud.
00:32Got into Capital University.
00:35Thing is, he left.
00:37And never came back.
00:39No one knows if he's alive or dead.
00:42The lines ended.
00:44You young folks should show some respect.
00:48Oh, right.
00:49That second son you mentioned just now.
00:52Do you remember his name?
00:54Oh, I think...
00:56I forgot his name.
01:07I just can't remember.
01:13I think it was.
01:33It's my advisor.
01:37Mr. Vickers.
01:39Dinner tonight.
01:40It's important.
01:41My old classmate Chris is back.
01:43He's the real deal in the capital markets.
01:46If he gives the nod, landing you a decent job in Seaport is as good as done.
01:52Mr. Vickers, from now on, I'm your number one fan.
01:58See you tonight, then.
02:05This sachet was handmade by his mom.
02:08Now that they're gone, it's only right to burn it for them.
02:11Ah!
02:12Such a beautiful sachet.
02:14Seems a shame to burn it.
02:22Chris, Mr. Vickers has arrived.
02:25Have NA resend the finalized closing docs with new terms by midnight.
02:30Got it.
02:31But, Derek...
02:34Mrs. Vickers, I'm here.
02:36Where are you guys?
02:57Chris, I made the sachet just for you.
03:00Inside are some herbs your dad picked up to keep the bugs away.
03:03Thanks, Mom.
03:06Chris, be back before dark.
03:14Got it, Mom.
03:16Something from 25 years ago.
03:18Never thought it would come back to me in this way.
03:21Chris?
03:21Let's talk about Derek later.
03:27Mrs. Foster.
03:29Ah, Mandy.
03:33Look at you.
03:34You're about to start working.
03:35But you still act like a kid.
03:37Always into those flashy little gadgets.
03:39Hey, Mandy.
03:40My old classmate is coming soon.
03:41You need to act more mature.
03:43Someone that capable must be even more stressed than you are.
03:47I bet his hairline's in full retreat.
04:02You look so young.
04:04Can't believe they were classmates.
04:07That soon.
04:09I bet a single button costs more than I live on in a year.
04:13Mr. Carter.
04:14Damn, it's been a long time.
04:15Long time no see.
04:16Chris, you're finally here.
04:18I've been waiting for you.
04:19Let's take our seats.
04:20Yeah, okay.
04:25Let's go, Mandy.
04:29Oh, Chris.
04:30This is the protege I'm always telling you about.
04:33Andy.
04:39Hello, Mr. Carter.
04:41Here.
04:50That's Satchit.
04:55Oh.
04:58It's from one of my neighbors in town.
05:01I thought it looked nice, so I just wear it.
05:08By the way, Andy's actually from your hometown, too.
05:12Fairview, right?
05:14Wow.
05:15What a coincidence.
05:17So which part of Fairview are you from?
05:20Fenwood.
05:21It's a small place.
05:23You might not have heard of it.
05:25Fenwood's nice.
05:26I've been there.
05:28You've been to a little place like ours?
05:34That's Scar.
05:39That's Scar.
05:41Huh?
05:42Does he have x-ray vision or something?
05:44How can he spot such a faint scar?
05:48Childhood.
05:49Mischief.
05:50A dog disagreed.
05:51And the boy next door carried me to the hospital.
05:55So, that's how it happened.
06:01That day, I carried you two hours over mountain roads.
06:16I wasn't sure what everyone likes, so I just ordered a bit of everything.
06:20What the?
06:23If it's not to your taste, we can order more.
06:26I knew it.
06:27Only with Mr. Vickers do you get invites to dinners like this.
06:31Chris, Andy might be young, but she's the most outstanding among all my students.
06:38She hasn't even graduated yet, already got two job offers, but she turned them both down.
06:43Because her boyfriend works at Seaport.
06:45She wants to move there, too.
06:47You have the connections.
06:49Any chance you could help her find something suitable?
06:55If you ask.
06:57Of course I'll help.
07:00Richard.
07:08Miss Young.
07:10I'll get your WeChat.
07:12Let's stay connected.
07:14Aw.
07:15That's odd.
07:16He always uses my phone to add people on WeChat.
07:37Mandi.
07:38Uh-huh.
07:39Here.
07:47Mandi.
07:48Here.
07:52Here.

08:02Oh.
08:06Oh, Chris.
08:09I'll leave Manny here to you.
08:12You need to take good care of her, okay?
08:18Mrs. Vickers, take care on the road.
08:21Oh, you too. Let me know when you get there.
08:24Bye-bye.
08:36It's snowing.
