00:00:13Grandma Hannah always said all it takes is just one moment to change everything.
00:00:19For Grandma Hannah and Grandpa Charlie, that moment happened the day they first saw the
00:00:25Inn at Apple Hill.
00:00:32They worked day and night, creating magical moments, not only for their guests, but for
00:00:40each other.
00:00:41Their son, my father, grew up at Apple Hill.
00:00:45And so after I was born, the Inn remained a constant presence in our lives.
00:00:51Apple Hill was a place where I could be anyone, do anything.
00:00:58All under the watchful eyes of my loving grandparents.
00:01:02All it takes is just one moment to change everything.
00:01:08Even moments beyond your control.
00:01:11After Grandma and Grandpa passed, I couldn't let that moment happen without taking action.
00:01:17After all, what was the value of my grandparents' efforts if I didn't step in to keep their
00:01:22magic alive.
00:01:24And it wasn't too long after securing the purchase of Apple Hill that I found myself signing
00:01:29a different set of papers.
00:01:30Then it's settled.
00:01:32Mr. Jones will assume ownership of the cabin.
00:01:34And Mrs. Jones will take...
00:01:36Ms. Jacobs.
00:01:37Ms. Jacobs will take full ownership of Inn at Apple Hill.
00:01:45There's one liability I'm going to be to say goodbye to.
00:01:48You never took even one moment to understand why Apple Hill is so important to me.
00:02:00Unlike Trent's lack of confidence in Apple Hill, I knew it just needed some TLC to bring it
00:02:06back to life.
00:02:07And I was up for the challenge.
00:02:24Hi, I've been handing out umbrellas because it's raining, so I just wanted to...
00:02:30Let me move you to another table.
00:02:32I'm sure we can just...
00:02:34There were some unforeseen issues along the way.
00:02:38I will get it fixed as soon as I possibly can.
00:02:41I'm so sorry.
00:02:43Okay.
00:02:45We have a blender and a microwave, and I'm sure we could...
00:02:49Oh, Steve.
00:02:50Please.
00:02:51But there were some wins, too.
00:02:54On behalf of all of us at Inn at Apple Hill, we're honored to be named a Landover Historic
00:02:59Destination.
00:03:04Short-lived as they might be.
00:03:08We're working on that.
00:03:10Thanks, guys.
00:03:21These electrical changes will allow us to open three additional rooms.
00:03:27So you're not at full occupancy?
00:03:30There are not enough extension cords in the world.
00:03:34These changes will allow us to be at full capacity.
00:03:39And you think this will be as good as the day that Charlie and Hannah first opened their
00:03:43doors?
00:03:43That's the plan.
00:03:45But, you know, hard times came to Charlie and Hannah as well.
00:03:51They had to defer a lot of maintenance just to get by.
00:03:54I am painfully aware of that.
00:03:58But you have to start somewhere, Ted.
00:04:00And this is what they would have wanted.
00:04:02They would have wanted you to run an inn that's hanging by a thread on your own?
00:04:08I'm doing this to pick up where my grandma and grandpa left off.
00:04:15A lot of the larger hoteliers are partnering up with the boutique inns.
00:04:19A scout from Heston Hotels came last week, and it's like they smelled blood in the water.
00:04:23Well, partnering with them would help buffer Apple Hill from the slower months.
00:04:28It would help pay for unanticipated expenses.
00:04:32I would become an employee at my own business.
00:04:39Elise, I can't approve a loan.
00:04:41Not without a 15% gross profit.
00:04:47Then I will get there.
00:04:51Look, that sounds great.
00:04:53But if your grandparents were here right now, they would say the same thing.
00:04:58What you want, all this, it's just not realistic.
00:05:03I'm sorry.
00:05:13Yeah, no, I know I said 12, but you know what I always say?
00:05:16If you are on time, you are, in fact, late.
00:05:20It's a joke, Adam.
00:05:22Hello?
00:05:23Adam.
00:05:25Hello?
00:05:27No, thank you.
00:05:28You have no receip.
00:05:29Not during our lunch date.
00:05:32I was told this was a business meeting.
00:05:35Unfortunately, son, it's the only way I could get you to commit.
00:05:38It's time for us to celebrate.
00:05:41I think I'm going to stick with my regular double espresso.
00:05:44I have a big day today.
00:05:44Oh, please.
00:05:45You just completed Bellwether's acquisition of Starfield Hotels.
00:05:49You can kick up your feet a little.
00:05:51Now sit.
00:05:53Please.
00:05:54Is that coming from the CEO or my mother?
00:05:55Whichever one you're most likely to listen to.
00:05:58Cheers, darling.
00:06:00Cheers.
00:06:01Mmm.
00:06:02Mmm.
00:06:04By the way, I gave my team 90 days to submit the new financial to Bellwether's model.
00:06:08Is that realistic?
00:06:10I'm the CFO.
00:06:11Of course it's realistic.
00:06:13No wonder I've been fielding calls from your entire team.
00:06:15They're excited, right?
00:06:16What they are, Luke, is exhausted.
00:06:19I've been hearing they worked weekends, even overnights, to close this deal.
00:06:22Well, it's not uncommon for an acquisition of this size.
00:06:25And by the way, I didn't force anyone to do any of this.
00:06:27You didn't have to.
00:06:29Honey, you've been at the office morning, noon, and night.
00:06:31When you do that, people think they can't go home and enjoy their lives.
00:06:38What is happening?
00:06:42Replies to a very, very, very important email that I sent during their lunch break.
00:06:45Oh, Luke.
00:06:48Do-
00:06:50Come on.
00:06:51Do not make me count to ten.
00:06:52Don't count to ten.
00:06:54I will do it.
00:06:55One, two, three, four.
00:06:57Is that a time of Banderas?
00:06:58Don't you really like that?
00:06:59Are you-
00:07:03Just one second.
00:07:04Oh, no, you didn't.
00:07:05Desperate times call for desperate measures, Mom.
00:07:07I couldn't agree more.
00:07:11Leanne?
00:07:12Do it.
00:07:18What did you do?
00:07:20I deactivated your account.
00:07:22I'll do it.
00:07:23I'll do it.
00:07:24It's time for you to go on vacation.
00:07:26I don't want to go on vacation, Mother.
00:07:28Listen to me.
00:07:29Maybe not, but your team needs a vacation from you.
00:07:31So, for the next two weeks, your access to the office will be suspended.
00:07:35I'm sorry.
00:07:37Suspended?
00:07:37Yes.
00:07:38I don't want to be suspended.
00:07:39I want to do this.
00:07:40Just, please.
00:07:41Oh, honey, I love you.
00:07:43But if you even so much as attempt to log in, you're fired.
00:07:48I don't know about you, but I'm starving.
00:08:00I don't know about you, but I'm starving.
00:08:33Thank you again.
00:08:38Line up at the tavern.
00:08:39Jared, it's Luke.
00:08:40Is it a good time?
00:08:42Luke, of course it's a good time.
00:08:43What's going on, man?
00:08:44Just want to see what you're up to.
00:08:45Hey, hun.
00:08:46It's Luke.
00:08:48Luke?
00:08:48Yeah.
00:08:49Oh, put him on video.
00:08:49Come on video.
00:08:51No, no, no.
00:08:52It's, um...
00:08:53Hi!
00:08:53Hey!
00:08:55Oh.
00:08:56Oh, are you okay?
00:08:58Um, no.
00:08:59I'm great.
00:09:00No, you don't look yourself, man.
00:09:01You look a little, um...
00:09:02Like, um, unkempt?
00:09:04Yeah.
00:09:05I'm not unkempt.
00:09:06I'm taking a few weeks off.
00:09:08A little vacation.
00:09:09Sorry, time off?
00:09:09You don't take vacation.
00:09:11I do now.
00:09:12Blake twice if you're in danger.
00:09:14Look, Candace, right now I'm looking at a photo of us three.
00:09:18From what I think was the very opening of the tavern.
00:09:23I think we're about due for a trip.
00:09:25Well, we're telling you that photo was taken over two years ago.
00:09:27How'd it get you down here?
00:09:28That was two years ago?
00:09:29I mean, it's been three, but who's counting?
00:09:31But seriously, you should totally come down here and see all the changes we've made around here.
00:09:35Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:36Yes.
00:09:36I can't wait.
00:09:37Well, obviously you're going to stay with us because we've got a whole bedroom for you upstairs.
00:09:41It's a little Luke's room.
00:09:42Well, actually, Candace, Luke is a creature of habit.
00:09:45So.
00:09:45I do apologize, Candace, but, uh, a trip to Landover would not be complete without a stay at the Apple
00:09:50Hill.
00:10:21system into the, you know, 20th century.
00:10:24I think you mean 21st century.
00:10:26No, I definitely mean 20th.
00:10:29Huh.
00:10:33Do you mind keeping an eye on things for a while?
00:10:35Yeah, of course.
00:10:36I will just finish the guest notes for tonight.
00:10:39You know, if I can read them.
00:10:41Okay.
00:10:43Oh, remember, there's a leak in room 11, so it's out of commission.
00:10:47Got it.
00:10:48Bye.
00:10:49Bye.
00:11:00Candace still helps out at the tavern every now and then, but these days she's just killing it in real
00:11:05estate.
00:11:07It's great, man.
00:11:08You guys are hitting your goals.
00:11:09Yeah.
00:11:10Well, we owe a lot of that to you.
00:11:13Oh, anything to me.
00:11:13I invested because you guys are crazy talented.
00:11:17Yeah, well, both.
00:11:17What happened to Rusty's, what?
00:11:20Yeah, shut down after you retired a couple years back.
00:11:24Are you serious?
00:11:25Mm-hmm.
00:11:26Oh, man.
00:11:27I used to dominate space barge in here.
00:11:30Excuse me?
00:11:32I do believe I beat you my fair share of times.
00:11:35You can't be serious.
00:11:36Oh, I am dead serious.
00:11:37You know, they have the original game over at Tony's Pizza.
00:11:40Are you matched?
00:11:42Please say now.
00:11:43Right now.
00:11:43Right here.
00:11:44Oh, wait.
00:11:45Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:11:47Yeah, hi.
00:11:51All right.
00:11:52I'll, uh, I'll see you soon.
00:11:55That's convenient.
00:11:56Yeah, super convenient.
00:11:58It's gonna have to be a rain check.
00:11:59It's gonna have to be a rain check.
00:12:00Get out of here.
00:12:12Yeah.
00:12:14Pokemon.
00:12:26Excuse me.
00:12:28Do you know what happened to the high school that used to be here?
00:12:30They built a new one outside of town.
00:12:32Brand new building.
00:12:34So they just tore all this down?
00:12:37And built this beautiful park.
00:12:55Hey, Elise.
00:12:56Hey, Tony.
00:12:58The usual.
00:12:59Ooh, not bad of a day.
00:13:01Ah, I don't even want to talk about it.
00:13:04Well, you might have to wait a bit.
00:13:06He's been playing for 30 minutes now.
00:13:09But I do have the same game online if you're interested.
00:13:13It's not the same.
00:13:15I'll just wait.
00:13:16Sounds good.
00:13:20Maybe I'll just see how long he's gonna be.
00:13:23Sounds good.
00:13:26Excuse me.
00:13:29Can I help you?
00:13:31Yes, actually, there are other people waiting to play the game.
00:13:34Me.
00:13:37Uh, well, we could play two-player.
00:13:40Oh, no.
00:13:41I play alone.
00:13:42It's sort of my form of meditation.
00:13:45Well, I can already tell you seem like the type of person that needs to zen out.
00:13:51It says the guy wearing sunglasses indoors.
00:13:55What?
00:13:56No, that cannot be your score.
00:13:59It can, and it is.
00:14:02Not today.
00:14:03Excuse me.
00:14:03You've obviously been playing long enough.
00:14:05Excuse me.
00:14:05What are you doing?
00:14:06Who does that?
00:14:07I was polite, and I came over, and I asked you if I could play.
00:14:09Come on, come on.
00:14:10You know what?
00:14:11Excuse me.
00:14:12There.
00:14:13There.
00:14:15New top score.
00:14:17Wow.
00:14:24But that's my game.
00:14:30Well done.
00:14:30Thank you, sir.
00:14:32Did you want a slice to go?
00:14:33Bye, Tony.
00:14:35Bye.
00:14:36I take it that was Elise?
00:14:37That was Elise.
00:14:40And just like that, he took my top score.
00:14:43Ooh, luckily it is just a game.
00:14:47But I, I get it.
00:14:49And this guy, he seems like trouble.
00:14:52Yeah.
00:14:53And he could have been a trend clone.
00:14:55He's rude and arrogant, way out of line.
00:14:58Okay, do you want to discuss the arriving guests tonight, or?
00:15:01Good idea.
00:15:02Great.
00:15:03So I'm thinking, what if we looked at this information on a tablet, instead of sorting
00:15:08through these 20 guest files.
00:15:10Oh, but Nora, the tactile feel of paper, though.
00:15:18What's this?
00:15:20Uh, solo guest.
00:15:22Lucas Bellwether.
00:15:24Bellwether, as in Bellwether Holdings.
00:15:27The hotel group?
00:15:29Nora, look at your iPad.
00:15:31Look him up.
00:15:32Okay.
00:15:33Bellwether.
00:15:33Right here, right here.
00:15:34Uh, as Bellwether Holdings CFO, Lucas Bellwether has increased profits and helped to facilitate
00:15:40funding to add several regional chains to their portfolio.
00:15:44Mm-hmm.
00:15:45First, Huston Hotels comes sniffing around, and now Bellwether Holdings.
00:15:49No.
00:15:50No.
00:15:51He's not going to stay here.
00:15:53Well done.
00:15:54I mean, hi.
00:15:55Checking in.
00:15:56Hi.
00:15:57You must be Mr. Bellwether.
00:15:59Welcome to Apple Hill.
00:16:02I see you again, former champion of space barge.
00:16:06Did you tell you that?
00:16:07Uh, just for the record, I did have a higher score, but there was a blackout at Tony's Pizza,
00:16:12and it deleted all the information from the game, so we're just...
00:16:15It's convenient that that actually doesn't exist.
00:16:20It says here that you want down alternative pillows and laundry service.
00:16:25If that's fine, or just a simple ironing would be great.
00:16:28I'm sorry, we can't provide any of that.
00:16:31You know what?
00:16:32That must be disappointing for you, so I can go ahead and call other hotels in the area.
00:16:36No, no, no, that'll be fine.
00:16:38I need to stay here.
00:16:41And we would love to have you.
00:16:43Also, you know, the Wi-Fi is down, and...
00:16:49Good thing I'm supposed to be on vacation.
00:16:51Now, how does a check-in work?
00:16:52Is it a key card, app?
00:16:54No, no, we use actual keys.
00:16:58Adorable.
00:16:59Like Bates Motel.
00:17:02Let's give Mr. Bellwether room 11.
00:17:04No, we can't either.
00:17:05Nora, let's give him room 11.
00:17:07Sounds great.
00:17:09And you know what?
00:17:10Grab him a welcome basket while you're there.
00:17:12Ah, too kind.
00:17:13Everyone gets one.
00:17:18Okay, you are.
00:17:19It's just up those stairs.
00:17:20You'll see it.
00:17:22Mm-hmm.
00:17:26I am so confused.
00:17:27Didn't you say that we could not rent out room 11?
00:17:30I did say that.
00:17:31If he insists on staying here, I'm going to give him the worst week of his life.
00:17:38How is there no reception?
00:17:40None?
00:17:41None?
00:17:44Nothing.
00:18:11I'm so confused.
00:18:12I'm so confused.

00:27:32Phew. I can't tell you how many of them.
00:27:34Too bad I didn't have any fresh towels,
00:27:36but it did manage to dry off with three bedsheets.
00:27:38I can't give you that right there.
00:27:40Actually, that's kind of genius.
00:27:42Ooh, scones. I'd love one, please.
00:27:43Yeah, great.
00:27:44Yeah, and also put me down for apple picking
00:27:46unless you manage to mess that up, too.
00:27:48Oh, no. Mm-mm.
00:27:49I should mention that apple picking takes actual work.
00:27:53Well, I'm good with work.
00:27:54As you know, per last night.
00:27:57What he's referring to is the fact that
00:27:59in the middle of the night,
00:28:00he decided to change a door handle without my permission.
00:28:03It's a door handle, also the phone jack,
00:28:06the electrical outlet, and a leaky sink,
00:28:07but I digress.
00:28:09What's the Wi-Fi?
00:28:10Yeah, we don't use to give that.
00:28:13Lower case?
00:28:15Mm-hmm.
00:28:17Great.
00:28:18Thank you, Nora.
00:28:23Um, he-he repaired his room?
00:28:27Yeah, apparently.
00:28:29Too bad he can't fix all of them.
00:28:31That would increase occupancy.
00:28:36Actually, maybe he can.
00:28:38Yeah, he's Jordan.
00:28:39Yeah, all right.

00:35:50i was going to give you that list but then i reconsidered
00:35:53i still can't figure out the hang-up you have with my family's company it's like you think
00:36:02we're you you think we want to buy apple hill don't you i originally thought that but then i
00:36:08found out who you were who who am i you're luke jared's best friend from high school i didn't know
00:36:15that until i talked to him yeah luke luke bellwether was him then luke bellwether now what does it have
00:36:22to do with anything growing up i just knew you as luke we weren't in the same grade we didn't
00:36:26hang
00:36:26out and you always seem like this simple carefree guy
00:36:33i'm still that guy
00:36:37i didn't know that i just saw a corporation and i
00:36:39i feel like i missed the chance to get to know you that way
00:36:44quick story
00:36:47after my parents divorced my mom took me here
00:36:49to apple hill at the time of my life apparently now i was four years old but i do
00:36:54remember that that was the weekend she decided to move to landover
00:36:58for good
00:37:00to give me a childhood and an upbringing i could never have in new york
00:37:04so you came here for that for those memories
00:37:09i'm sorry
00:37:13just stay and i i will make all of this up to you
00:37:18i love it here i really love it here but seeing this end that i love and the state
00:37:24that it's in i am not gonna let you or anyone else tarnish the memory of how great it once
00:37:30was so you can keep this
00:37:33i
00:37:59Oh, it smells amazing in here.
00:38:02Unfortunately, the oven is on its last legs.
00:38:05You know that some of these pies went through three rounds of baking before they were ready?
00:38:09Oh, and they have the bruises to show for it.
00:38:13Well, could that pie maybe be good enough for a certain electrician?
00:38:20So, it is five days until my follow-up meeting with the bank, and things keep getting worse.
00:38:25I've literally tried everything my grandma and grandpa would do in this situation.
00:38:29Nothing's clicking.
00:38:30But you know what?
00:38:32Something will.
00:38:33Because it always does.
00:38:36Maybe it's my fault, you know?
00:38:38Look how I jumped to conclusions with Luke.
00:38:41Maybe a little bit.
00:38:43But I heard that he's staying with his friends who own Landover Tavern.
00:38:48Candace and Jared?
00:38:49Mm-hmm.
00:38:50Fun fact about Lucas Bellwether.
00:38:52Loves apple pies.
00:38:54He does.
00:38:55Oh, I have no idea.
00:38:56But there's only one way to find out.
00:39:06Hey, look who's up.
00:39:07Hey.
00:39:09How'd you sleep?
00:39:10Good.
00:39:11That bed is comfortable.
00:39:12Better than your room over at Apple Hill.
00:39:15Yeah.
00:39:15Added bonus, I don't have to deal with Elise Jacobs.
00:39:17Right.
00:39:18Tea?
00:39:19No.
00:39:20Something stronger, please.
00:39:21Oh, okay.
00:39:24I'm gonna have to leave the coffee to you, though.
00:39:26You know how to use one of these things, right?
00:39:29I gotta hit up the tavern.
00:39:31But I'll see you later.
00:39:32TÃo.
00:39:34TÃo.
00:39:47TÃo.
00:39:50TÃo.
00:39:53TÃo.
00:40:26Can I help you?
00:40:30Consider this a freshly baked mea culpa.
00:40:39Myra!
00:40:41Hi!
00:40:43Um, thank you for all your help with the electrical at the inn.
00:40:47This is from Elise.
00:40:50Oh.
00:40:52Okay.
00:41:07I should never have had preconceived notions about you.
00:41:10I-I didn't know what the inn meant to you and your mom, and I'm...
00:41:15I am truly sorry.
00:41:22Do all of your apologies smell this good?
00:41:25As long as I'm not the one baking them.
00:41:30Here.
00:41:31Come here.
00:41:37Uh...
00:41:37Can I get you a coffee?
00:41:39That'd be great.
00:41:42Lovely change of pace.
00:41:43A coffee truce, if you will.
00:41:46Well...
00:41:47Truce.
00:41:49I was not the one at war.
00:41:52Fair.
00:41:54But I did want to ask, had I been interested in the inn, you could have just said no.
00:41:59I was...
00:42:01I was a little afraid I'd say yes.
00:42:05Why's that?
00:42:06Because I-I dove wholeheartedly into buying Apple Hill.
00:42:11You know, I was determined to preserve that part of my grandparents' lives, but it is taking
00:42:15everything I have to keep it afloat.
00:42:19And what's it giving to you?
00:42:26It's keeping me up at night.
00:42:30I'm worried that I'm not going to get the funding I need and that I'm...
00:42:34I'm going to have to let it go.
00:42:37How long do you think you can go without the loan?
00:42:40Maybe through the first week of November.
00:42:43Maybe.
00:42:52Well...
00:42:52Good news is, I think I can help.
00:42:56If you let me.
00:42:59Uh, how are your books?
00:43:01Any upcoming events?
00:43:02Nope.
00:43:04The Orchard Harvest was the last event of the season.
00:43:06What about Halloween party?
00:43:08Oh, that became too tough for my grandparents to do, so they stopped doing it 15 years ago.
00:43:13Exactly.
00:43:14Imagine the response if you brought it back.
00:43:16This Halloween?
00:43:18This Halloween.
00:43:19The one that's in a matter of days.
00:43:20Matter of days. Plenty of time. Perfect.
00:43:22I really appreciate your enthusiasm. I do.
00:43:25But I'm not sure that one night is enough to save my inn.
00:43:30What if we sold tickets?
00:43:34That would work.
00:43:36And if you agreed to that, it would also let me consider accepting your apology.
00:43:48I also have a condition.
00:43:51Okay.
00:43:53I will consider doing the Halloween party if you give me a second chance and you finish your stay at
00:43:58Apple Hill.
00:44:00Elise Jacobs, you have a deal.
00:44:17Um...
00:44:18Discard. Um, keep.
00:44:21Oh, I liked him.
00:44:22It's okay.
00:44:27Alright.
00:44:28You know what?
00:44:29We need to rethink this entire party.
00:44:38Do you realize how much Landover's changed?
00:44:43I do.
00:44:44But I've been here so for me it's been more gradual.
00:44:47There was this photo I really loved.
00:44:49Jared and I. It was right after the Hockey State Championship.
00:44:52It hung in a high school for years.
00:44:55It was like a permanent part of the community.
00:44:58And...
00:45:00Now it's gone.
00:45:01Neither of you have a copy?
00:45:03No.
00:45:05In the arcade?
00:45:06Oh, okay. I cried when they closed that down.
00:45:09That's my point.
00:45:11That's why we need to have this party.
00:45:13Something needs to be brought back to life.
00:45:16I know.
00:45:16And I want to.
00:45:18But...
00:45:18What am I supposed to do?
00:45:20Go door to door to every craft store
00:45:22and ask them if I can use their projects as decorations for our party?
00:45:31They seem pretty into their work.
00:45:32Maybe...
00:45:33Maybe we should just post a flyer.
00:45:35Why wait?
00:45:36We're here now.
00:45:37Uh, excuse me, guys.
00:45:38This won't take long.
00:45:39Uh, I'm Luke.
00:45:40This is Elise.
00:45:41She owns the Inn at Apple Hill.
00:45:43And...
00:45:44We're doing a Halloween party.
00:45:45And we would love to know if you wanted to help in the decorations department.
00:45:49There's a little added bonus.
00:45:50Uh, if you do contribute, uh, there'll be free admission to the party.
00:45:53So...
00:45:53What do you guys say?
00:45:54Show of hands?
00:45:58Everyone?
00:46:00Go ahead.
00:46:04Every single hand went up.
00:46:07I figure it goes to show you how much they want you to have this Halloween party.
00:46:11It was also about displaying their artwork.
00:46:14See right there?
00:46:15That's what you need to improve your outlook.
00:46:17A little Bramers ice cream.
00:46:19Pumpkin scoop cures everything.
00:46:21I don't need to improve my outlook.
00:46:23And they don't have pumpkin ice cream.
00:46:26Yes, they do.
00:46:27Alright, you'll see.
00:46:29They better have it.
00:46:31They better have it.
00:46:32Candy corn, really?
00:46:35Everyone loves it.
00:46:36No.
00:46:37Everyone does not love it.
00:46:38Get rid of pumpkin for candy corn?
00:46:41I have never seen someone get so worked up over a dessert that tastes like a gourd.
00:46:48You can't say it like that.
00:46:50No, it's pumpkin and cinnamon and allspice.
00:46:53It's perfect for fall, even if it's snowy.
00:46:56Your excitement about the little things in this town, you just light up.
00:47:01Are you like that about the city?
00:47:03Uh, pizza, yes.
00:47:05Other than that, no.
00:47:08I went to New York for the sole purpose of getting my MBA in hopes of one day running bellwether.
00:47:15One more try.
00:47:16Because I'm adventurous.
00:47:21You know what?
00:47:23No.
00:47:25See?
00:47:26Even the trashcan didn't want it.
00:47:29What'd you get?
00:47:30You saw a whole array of ice creams you could have chosen from.
00:47:34Looks delicious.
00:47:35It's so good.
00:47:36Give me a bite.
00:47:38May I have a bite?
00:47:39Better.
00:47:41God, you fell for that.
00:47:55Were you all done with breakfast?
00:47:57Yeah.
00:47:59Officially it is, but I can get you something.
00:48:00No, no, no.
00:48:01I'm good.
00:48:02I just wanted to see if you were free.
00:48:04I had something planned.
00:48:06Adventure awaits.
00:48:07Ooh.
00:48:09Okay.
00:48:10Give me just a minute.
00:48:12Great.
00:48:15Where are you taking me?
00:48:16That, m'lady, is a surprise.
00:48:18Oh.
00:48:18Well, I can't wait to find out.
00:48:20Well, I'll give you a hint.
00:48:21I'm taking you to Pumpkin Patch to buy some pumpkins.
00:48:27These are absolutely amazing.
00:48:30Flawless.
00:48:31Oh, boy.
00:48:32Probably out of our price range.
00:48:34I don't know.
00:48:35But I do know these are some odd-looking pumpkins.
00:48:38I wonder who farms them.
00:48:41You want odd-looking?
00:48:43You should see my friend Luke Bellwether.
00:48:46What's up, buddy?
00:48:48How long has it been?
00:48:49Uh-uh.
00:48:50About that.
00:48:51It's, uh...
00:48:51Ten years.
00:48:51It's been ten years.
00:48:54Busy an excuse?
00:48:55I'm a pediatrician who also farms pumpkins.
00:48:58Fair enough.
00:48:59Oh, Ron, Elise, Elise, Ron.
00:49:01Nice to meet you.
00:49:02These are exquisite.
00:49:04Elise owns Inn at Apple Hill.
00:49:06Hannah and Charlie's place.
00:49:08Yeah.
00:49:08I'm the granddaughter.
00:49:09I took it over.
00:49:10How'd you get tangled up with this guy?
00:49:12Oh, yeah, right?
00:49:14Uh, we're thinking about bringing back the Halloween party at the inn.
00:49:17And what's a Halloween party without some pumpkins?
00:49:20So, uh, a little bit of a budget, but...
00:49:23I will absolutely hook you up.
00:49:24I'm guessing you also need hay bales.
00:49:27Whatever you suggest.
00:49:28All right.
00:49:28Yeah, that'd be great.
00:49:30I'll be right back.
00:49:33So you haven't talked to him in ten years,
00:49:35and you show up and ask him a favor, and he agrees.
00:49:40Yeah.
00:49:42Let's go find some pumpkins.
00:49:45You're all set, Miss Randall.
00:49:47Yeah, we look forward to your stay, too.
00:49:50Okay.
00:49:51Bye.
00:49:57Hey, Nora.
00:50:00Hi.
00:50:01Um, how can I help you?
00:50:04I was, uh, just in the area.
00:50:05I thought I'd stop by and thank Elise for that apple pie.
00:50:09Well, she is out at the moment, but I will...
00:50:11I will pass that word along.
00:50:13Oh.
00:50:16What you doing?
00:50:19Uh, I am just working on a little surprise for Elise.
00:50:25Need any help?
00:50:30I'm, uh, I'm just kind of in the zone.
00:50:36Cool.
00:50:37Gotcha.
00:50:38Oh!
00:50:39Hi.
00:50:40Oh, hi.
00:50:41Hi, Chuck.
00:50:42Hey.
00:50:43That is...
00:50:44That's a lot of decorations.
00:50:47Not that I don't love them.
00:50:48They're great.
00:50:49But can we afford them?
00:50:52These are all donated by local artists.
00:50:55Thanks to Luke.
00:50:56Hey, Luke.
00:50:57Chuck.
00:50:57The electrician.
00:50:58Oh, nice to meet you.
00:50:59I think this is...
00:51:00It's gonna look good.
00:51:01Yeah.
00:51:01Yeah, and we have, uh, pumpkins, hay bales.
00:51:04Oh, and Ron's donated a bunch of lights, so...
00:51:06That's gonna be a problem.
00:51:08No problem.
00:51:09No charge.
00:51:10It's just stuff you add extra from storage.
00:51:12The Inns electrical panel is the original knob and tube system,
00:51:15and it can barely keep the lights on as it is.
00:51:19Okay, so how do we light the outside?
00:51:21Well, I guess we're just gonna have to rely on the original lighting news every day.
00:51:26I don't think you can have the Halloween party you want to have
00:51:28without lighting up the outside.
00:51:30I mean, that's... that's kind of essential.
00:51:32What's essential is that the panel holds up so I can stay in business.
00:51:36Any extra lighting?
00:51:39Okay, uh, how much's the new panel cost?
00:51:41It's $12,103.
00:51:43And...
00:51:4442 cents.
00:51:46That is specific.
00:51:48But hey, we have options.
00:51:50No.
00:51:51Don't even say it.
00:51:52I mean, if it needs the repairs, it needs the repairs, so...
00:51:54No, I'm not taking a handout from you, Luke.
00:51:56It's not a handout, I promise it.
00:51:59End of discussion.
00:52:03I'm gonna...
00:52:24What if we called it a, uh, I don't know, temporary loan?
00:52:31That I'm not sure I can pay back.
00:52:35Listen, if we don't do this party right, you're not gonna hit your numbers.
00:52:40Please, please let me out.
00:52:42I truly appreciate everything you've done.
00:52:46But when I agreed to go in on this, it was to work together.
00:52:50Not to be your latest project.
00:52:53That's not what I'm doing.
00:52:56Is it?
00:52:57No.
00:53:00Maybe a little.
00:53:03If I rely on you for this, how am I gonna get through the next problem?
00:53:07Or the one after that?
00:53:10By letting people do for you exactly what I know you would do for them in a heartbeat.
00:53:16You've seen firsthand how quickly people come together if you just let them in.
00:53:21I can't take money from you.
00:53:24I think we need to quit while we're ahead.
00:53:32Uh, that might be problematic.
00:53:35I've already made an announcement.
00:53:38When? Where?
00:53:40Uh, this morning.
00:53:42Um, social media and the, uh, Landover Tribune.
00:53:48You, you need to cancel it.
00:53:51Well, see, I can't, cause, uh, we've already sold 110 tickets.
00:54:01No, no, wait a minute. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:54:04This deal has been as good as done for weeks, and you're telling me that Starfield's making additional demands now
00:54:10in the 11th hour?
00:54:12No. No, I don't want legal to draft any modifications.
00:54:17I, at least not yet. How much time do we have?
00:54:20Three days.
00:54:21Well, that's not enough.
00:54:23Get me an extension.
00:54:31And this is why Chuck is officially off my list.
00:54:34It's odd, cause I don't remember him mentioning a girlfriend.
00:54:37Yeah, yeah, there she was.
00:54:39But this is looking festive.
00:54:41Um, do we have any updates from Luke on ticket sales?
00:54:44Yeah, we're at over 200.
00:54:47That's amazing.
00:54:49And there's also no backing out now.
00:54:51We can't always refund tickets.
00:54:53And let down our entire community?
00:54:55We have an oven that can barely make breakfast for 20 to 30 guests.
00:54:58Oh, yes. Let alone feed over 200 people.
00:55:01Well, who said you had to do food?
00:55:04We're already at a disadvantage with the lighting.
00:55:06If we make too many shortcuts, people will notice.
00:55:09I almost forgot to tell you.
00:55:10Um, a woman from the community center named Julie called.
00:55:14She says, it's there.
00:55:18What does that mean?
00:55:22Looks so good, doesn't it?
00:55:29So, I know it might not look like much right now, but the plan is to convert this into a
00:55:34private events room.
00:55:35I mean, once I can get this all cleared out.
00:55:37And once that's done, you think about a second location?
00:55:40That might be a Luke Bellwether thing to do, but me, I'm having a hard enough time keeping up as
00:55:45it is.
00:55:46How are the plans for Halloween coming along?
00:55:48Um, the ends of electricity won't support all the decorations that I think we should be doing.
00:55:52So, but, we'll manage.
00:55:54Yeah, that used to happen to us every Christmas.
00:55:56Anytime I would want to add a new string of lights, I'd be worried about the power going out anytime
00:55:59I made a cup of coffee.
00:56:01So, did you upgrade?
00:56:02No, I, uh, got a generator.
00:56:05We're up to three now.
00:56:07Generators.
00:56:28Hi, you've reached Luke Bellwether, CFO of Bellwether Holdings. I'm unavailable at the moment, but if you please leave your
00:56:34name, number...
00:56:36Since when doesn't he answer the phone?
00:56:39What are we doing at the library? I thought we picked up all the Halloween decorations.
00:56:43We did indeed.
00:56:47Oh, thank you.
00:56:49You're welcome.
00:56:50Oh, wow.
00:56:52Look at that.
00:56:53Do you remember, Steve?
00:56:56Look at that, man. Heck yeah, old nine.
00:57:00God, that was great.
00:57:02Look at this next one.
00:57:07What?
00:57:09Are you serious?
00:57:11Yeah.
00:57:12I remembered hearing about an installation that had photos from Landover High School, and I wasn't sure yours was in
00:57:17here, but I made a call, and here it is.
00:57:22I can't believe this. You tracked this down for me?
00:57:26I got determined to find something that hadn't changed.
00:57:32Plus, I was dying to see a reaction.
00:57:40I hope it didn't disappoint.
00:57:44No, I didn't.
00:57:48I feel like I've watched you come to life since you've been here.
00:57:52What can I say? It's contagious.
00:57:56Maybe a little.
00:57:58It's a little.
00:58:00I know that I'm going to be back in the city, but there'll be a piece of me here.
00:58:10Well, you have left much more of an impression than any photo could.
00:58:28Fresh pastries.
00:58:30Oh, good morning.
00:58:33Enjoy.
00:58:35Nora.
00:58:36There you are.
00:58:37Just wondering where you were.
00:58:40Sorry.
00:58:41Um, I'm actually not sure how to tell you this, but here.
00:58:45Is everything okay?
00:58:47Yep.
00:58:50Guest book?
00:58:51Yeah, out of all the platforms, their reviews were the best.
00:58:53So I met with the sales rep and they agreed to give us a three-month trial.
00:58:58We already have reservations.
00:59:00Because I went live last week without telling you.
00:59:03But you can't be upset at me because I hand-wrote all reservations in your guest book so that you
00:59:07wouldn't notice.
00:59:09You are nothing if not determined.
00:59:12And I've been entering in all past guest notes during my downtime.
00:59:16There is one problem.
00:59:20We're fully booked for Halloween!
00:59:21Yes!
00:59:23Yeah!
00:59:23What?!
00:59:36Hello?
00:59:37Why aren't you answering my calls?
00:59:40You told me to dis-
00:59:41Disconnect, not disappear.
00:59:44Listen, honey, I'm very glad to hear that you've had a nice stay in Landover, but how would you feel
00:59:50about coming back?
00:59:52Sooner than three days from now?
00:59:54Sooner as in today. It's urgent.
01:00:04Good morning, Nora.
01:00:06Good morning.
01:00:07Hey, uh, are we all set for today?
01:00:10Yes!
01:00:11As long as you can keep Elise away.
01:00:14I can try.
01:00:15Um, if I knew where she was, where is she?
01:00:17She went to Candace and Jared's tavern.
01:00:20Hey, Nora.
01:00:20Oh, we're Luke.
01:00:22What's going on, Chuck?
01:00:23Oh, Chuck volunteered to help us with the lights.
01:00:25That is great.
01:00:26That is great.
01:00:27Um, I just remembered I- I forgot something inside, so I'm gonna-
01:00:34Okay.
01:00:36Okay.
01:00:37How well do you know, Nora?
01:00:39Uh, just from work done around here at Apple Hill.
01:00:42And, uh, she brought me a pie.
01:00:45A pie?
01:00:46That's nice.
01:00:46Yeah, from- from Elise.
01:00:47But it was great timing.
01:00:48My sister was in town and she loves apple pie.
01:00:54Chuck, would it be a crazy idea to think that maybe Nora might like you?
01:00:59Uh, me?
01:01:02Uh, no.
01:01:03Nora is, uh, she's way out of my league.
01:01:10Chords.
01:01:12Yeah.
01:01:13Thanks.
01:01:30All right, and we have the butternut squash gnocchi with arugula salad.
01:01:34Careful, plates are hot.
01:01:35And we have the fire roasted chicken with honey glazed carrots.
01:01:40Enjoy.
01:01:42Elise, what?
01:01:43Hi.
01:01:43Hey, you.
01:01:44Oh.
01:01:45Oh, so good to see you.
01:01:46You too.
01:01:47What can I do for you?
01:01:48Elise?
01:01:49Well, this is such a surprise.
01:01:51Oh, hi.
01:01:52Hi.
01:01:52Oh, it's so good to see you.
01:01:54I just got a new listing.
01:01:56What?
01:01:56That's amazing.
01:01:57But it's not just any listing.
01:01:58It is Luke's childhood home.
01:02:00No.
01:02:01Oh, sorry.
01:02:02I totally took over this.
01:02:03No, no, no.
01:02:04What can we do for you?
01:02:05Uh, well, I came to ask you guys a favor.
01:02:09Sure.
01:02:10Anything.
01:02:10What do you mean?
01:02:11Well, Luke told you about the Halloween party at Apple Hill.
01:02:13Well, our oven has been on the fritz.
01:02:17And I was hoping that maybe we could prep some items here for the party.
01:02:21Or maybe we could do the food for the party.
01:02:26Yeah.
01:02:27That's so much.
01:02:28I couldn't let you.
01:02:29No.
01:02:29We want to support you.
01:02:30Yeah.
01:02:30And it's great advertisement for the restaurant.
01:02:32Mm-hmm.
01:02:33Well, then...
01:02:34No brainer.
01:02:34How could I say no?
01:02:36I...
01:02:37We would never let you say no.
01:02:39It's true.
01:02:42In that case, I do have one more little question.
01:02:45Shoot.
01:02:46Go on.
01:02:48Oh, excuse me.
01:02:50You stealing my friends, Jacobs?
01:02:52Hi.
01:02:54And not a chance.
01:02:55They are Luke devotees.
01:03:01I came here to source an oven for Halloween.
01:03:04And I ended up securing a food vendor.
01:03:07I'm sorry.
01:03:07Was that you asking someone else for help?
01:03:10They volunteered, to be honest.
01:03:12Ah.
01:03:13Hmm.
01:03:14I was surprised to see how excited they were about the party.
01:03:16Why would you be surprised?
01:03:18Everyone here wants you and Apple Hill to succeed.
01:03:21Including someone who's just randomly hanging out by my car?
01:03:25Oh, no, no, no.
01:03:26Not random.
01:03:27I'm on a mission.
01:03:28To take you to an early dinner.
01:03:30Why do I have the feeling you're trying to keep me from the inn?
01:03:33Because I am.
01:03:35But don't worry.
01:03:36You're gonna approve.
01:03:40As long as I get to choose a place.
01:03:42So you're really not gonna tell me?
01:03:43That's not how surprises work.
01:03:45Is it, did you buy me a pony?
01:03:47Okay.
01:03:48Keep them closed.
01:03:49This is ridiculous.
01:03:49I'm not 12.
01:03:55Open up.
01:03:59My childhood home?
01:04:00What?
01:04:02Well, Candace just got the listing, and so now we have access.
01:04:06Of course she did.
01:04:06This is amazing.
01:04:08You're welcome.
01:04:12Listen, I, uh, I should go ahead and tell you that we had a pretty big snag at work,
01:04:18and my mom needs me back in New York, so...
01:04:22But you're still here.
01:04:24I am.
01:04:26I told her I was not gonna miss Halloween at Apple Hill.
01:04:30After you.
01:04:43You ever notice anything was up with, uh, Nora and Chuck?
01:04:48She used to have such a crush on him.
01:04:50Yeah?
01:04:51Then she went to surprise him with a pie.
01:04:53Then she met his girlfriend.
01:04:54Oh.
01:04:56His what?
01:04:58His girlfriend.
01:05:00That's not his girlfriend.
01:05:01That's his sister.
01:05:02She's visiting right now from out of town.
01:05:04No.
01:05:05Yeah.
01:05:06Oh, that changes everything.
01:05:08Oh, yeah.
01:05:12Your childhood home being for sale the week you're visiting.
01:05:15Right?
01:05:16You think that's a sign?
01:05:17Well, it's too much of a coincidence to just let go.
01:05:23But ma'am, you hear that?
01:05:28Hear what?
01:05:31Nothing.
01:05:35No sirens, no buses, no city traffic.
01:05:39This is nice.
01:05:41This is peaceful.
01:05:45Sounds like you miss being here.
01:05:48Yeah.
01:05:51I mean, the truth is I wish I could be two places at once.
01:05:56You know, fulfilling my obligations at Bellwether, and then having special moments like this
01:06:02with you.
01:06:05Sometimes you have to choose.
01:06:08I know Bellwether would survive and largely remain the same with or without you.
01:06:17But I can't say the same for everyone here.
01:06:21including me.
01:06:38Oh, my gosh.
01:06:40They're here.
01:06:40Okay.
01:06:41Okay.
01:06:47Okay.
01:06:48Okay.
01:06:49What?
01:06:51Come here.
01:06:53What is this?
01:06:55You'll see.
01:06:57Okay.
01:06:58Chuck!
01:06:59Now!
01:07:12Luke, you said no new electricals.
01:07:15But nothing about borrowed generators.
01:07:18Wait.
01:07:19You did all of that with generators?
01:07:23No.
01:07:23Actually, uh, oh, Nora and Chuck deserve most of the credit.
01:07:27No, no.
01:07:27It was along with a group of volunteers who were willing to decorate in exchange for a party
01:07:33invite.
01:07:35That's amazing.
01:07:36So I guess we're ready to throw a party.
01:07:40Luke!
01:07:40Luke!
01:07:41There you are.
01:07:43Finally.
01:07:44Mom.
01:07:44Oh.
01:07:46Hi.
01:07:47Um.
01:07:47Hi.
01:07:48Oh, um, Mom.
01:07:49This is, uh, Elise.
01:07:51Elise.
01:07:52It's lovely to meet you.
01:07:53Hello.
01:07:54Now I understand why my son won't return my calls.
01:07:59Um.
01:08:00Oh.
01:08:02Oh, boy.
01:08:07When did Starfield counter with different terms?
01:08:10Last week, out of the blue, I have 16 hours left before they shop other buyers.
01:08:18If I could just call their bluff and do nothing, I would.
01:08:22But I need you on this one, son.
01:08:27But you really don't.
01:08:30Watching you work, it's made me learn to trust that first intuition.
01:08:35Look at all your pros and cons and then act.
01:08:39Well.
01:08:41Right now, my intuition is telling me that I have not seen you this happy in a very long time.
01:08:48A break from reality will do that to someone.
01:08:50This is reality.
01:08:52Jared.
01:08:53Candace.
01:08:55Not to mention Elise.
01:09:09Is this a sister?
01:09:12What?
01:09:13A sister.
01:09:14Yes.
01:09:16Luke verified with Chuck and he is 100% single.
01:09:21A matter of fact, he's here doing a scavenger hunt with some of the kids right now.
01:09:25He's here.
01:09:26That's cool.
01:09:27That's cool.
01:09:28Okay.
01:09:28Um.
01:09:29So tonight is the night.
01:09:30I have all sales set to route here.
01:09:32All you have to do is enter expenses.
01:09:35Incredible.
01:09:35So at the end of the night, I will know completely where we stand.
01:09:38Yes.
01:09:39Thank you so much, Nora.
01:09:40You are brilliant.
01:09:41Um.
01:09:42I meant to ask you, how are you feeling about this being Luke's last night?
01:09:48I, I, I shame.
01:09:49Uh.
01:09:51No, I mean.
01:09:52I'm sorry.
01:09:53Obviously, I wish he could stay in Landover.
01:09:55You know, so that we could get to know each other better.
01:09:58Yeah.
01:09:59But we went into this knowing he was going to go back to the city, so.
01:10:03Wow.
01:10:04It's.
01:10:06Hi.
01:10:07I knew you guys were going to do a great job, but I mean, this is, this is incredible.
01:10:12It looks really great.
01:10:17Is that a selfie wall?
01:10:19Mm-hmm.
01:10:20I don't know if you're aware, but these are great for capturing the moment.
01:10:24And also, at the same time, promoting the inn.
01:10:29I was not.
01:10:30It's genius, though.
01:10:31And you're, yeah, you're scaring me a little bit.
01:10:33It is Halloween.
01:10:35Yes, it is.
01:10:36There's one other thing I want to show you.
01:10:38Follow me.
01:10:43This was not in the plans.
01:10:44No?
01:10:44Ice cream?
01:10:45Mm-hmm.
01:10:46Not just any ice cream.
01:10:48It's pumpkin ice cream.
01:10:51Really?
01:10:52Mm-hmm.
01:10:53You want to try it?
01:10:53Yes, I do.
01:10:54Oh.
01:11:01Phenomenal.
01:11:02Phenomenal.
01:11:03Really?
01:11:0510 out of 10.
01:11:06No notes.
01:11:07Better than Bramers.
01:11:08Mm.
01:11:09Which isn't saying much, because Bramers doesn't have pumpkin ice cream.
01:11:13That's true.
01:11:14But if they did, that's it.
01:11:19I don't know what to say.
01:11:21No one's ever done anything like this for me.
01:11:26It's my pleasure.
01:11:29All right.
01:11:31Happy Halloween!
01:11:32Oh, my goodness!
01:11:34Look at everyone!
01:11:36You all look so great!
01:11:39Awesome!
01:11:39What is this?
01:11:40Wow!
01:11:42Nora, where, uh, where's your costume?
01:11:46Oh, well, those, those are only for kids.
01:11:50Yeah.
01:11:51But you, you, you look great.
01:11:53Thanks.
01:11:54The tail is...
01:11:55Yeah.
01:11:55...some.
01:11:56It's growing on me.
01:11:59Keep forgetting it's back there.
01:12:08I'm ready to be free from these chains hanging on me.
01:12:15Used to have worries, now this stops.
01:12:19I wanna scream from the mountain top.
01:12:23I go back to our stream where we got our name in the holiday.
01:12:30I'm gonna scream from these.
01:12:32You feel pain, but now I need you.
01:12:36All right, all right, all right.
01:12:38All right, all right.
01:12:39Ahhhh!
01:12:40Yeah!
01:12:42Yeah!
01:12:43Boom!
01:12:45Hey!
01:12:48Well, what do you think?
01:12:50Honestly?
01:12:51Yeah.
01:12:52Best party I've been to in years.
01:12:54You think so?
01:12:55I do.
01:12:57But maybe I'm not the one you should be asking.
01:13:07Is this how you enjoy your own party?
01:13:11Usually, yes.
01:13:12I'm just trying to make sure everything stays stopped.
01:13:16Well, do me a favor.
01:13:18I just want you to stop.
01:13:21Take a look around.
01:13:24Because you did all this.
01:13:26I couldn't have done it without everyone else.
01:13:28Well, I know, I know.
01:13:29But no one goes it along and achieves something great.
01:13:32And you and this inn are at the heart of it.
01:13:36Take your moment.
01:13:46Hey, look at that.
01:13:50One of them out.
01:13:51One of them out.
01:13:52One of them out.
01:13:52What?
01:13:56Oh, we did that together.
01:13:57Well done.
01:13:59Well done.
01:14:00Well done.
01:14:02It's called for a little celebration.
01:14:05Because it's not a selfie wall until...
01:14:08We take a selfie.
01:14:18I'm just going to do one.
01:14:19Okay, yeah.
01:14:20I think that's going to be better.
01:14:21Bigger arms.
01:14:21There we go.
01:14:23Okay.
01:14:24Party's over.
01:14:25Do you guys need any help?
01:14:27No.
01:14:27Great.
01:14:28Okay.
01:14:28Hi.
01:14:29So, I kind of think tonight is going to be the talk of the town.
01:14:31Oh.
01:14:33How's it going?
01:14:34Well, I see ticket sales, beverages, but I don't see the final number I was looking for.
01:14:39You need to open another tab to get into the expenses.
01:14:42So, this is the moment of truth.
01:14:44Okay.
01:14:45Okay.
01:14:45Should we close our eyes?
01:14:49Did we do it?
01:14:53Elise?
01:15:14Oh.
01:15:17Everyone seemed to have a really great time.
01:15:19Oh.
01:15:20And, uh, we're already talking about next year.
01:15:26There won't be a next year.
01:15:30We didn't hit the number we needed.
01:15:33I had an entire community behind me, including you, and still we...
01:15:39You did everything you could.
01:15:42It's just not your fault.
01:15:50I should feel better that attempting to do the impossible was actually impossible, right?
01:15:54Yeah.
01:15:56But I don't.
01:16:00This is not how I wanted to leave.
01:16:02You know that.
01:16:05I do.
01:16:08It's not how I wanted you to leave, either.
01:16:15New York's not far away.
01:16:17Just far enough.
01:16:27Deaf.
01:16:40No to me.
01:16:43Whoa!
01:16:46I haveoh.
01:17:06I was so inspired, I came straight back from Landover yesterday to prep.
01:17:11Well, when are we meeting with Starfield?
01:17:14Well, um, the deal already went through.
01:17:19What?
01:17:20When?
01:17:22Last night.
01:17:23I told them the deal we agreed upon was the deal we were sticking with.
01:17:28And they signed.
01:17:33That's amazing. Congratulations.
01:17:35Wow.
01:17:36And thanks for reminding me to trust my instincts.
01:17:41This isn't easy for me to say, but, um, I don't know if it's for forever.
01:17:50Mm-hmm.
01:17:51But for right now, I got the feeling you belong in Landover.
01:17:58You've put so much work into me.
01:18:02I just don't ever want to disappoint you.
01:18:05Oh.
01:18:07No.
01:18:09You could never disappoint me, son.
01:18:13Lucas, I am so proud of you.
01:18:19Actually, I think the only thing that could ever disappoint me is that somehow I prevented you from going after
01:18:26what you want in life.
01:18:27I love you.
01:18:30I love you, kid.
01:18:31I love you too.
01:18:37I love you.
01:19:01Elise, I'm sorry I'm late.
01:19:03That's fine. I won't take long.
01:19:04You gave me the courtesy of a meeting,
01:19:06so I wanted to show up to the person
01:19:07and let you know that I was aiming for 15%.
01:19:10Thank you for coming.
01:19:10Even with everyone's help, I only landed at 13.7.
01:19:14Elise, you did something so much better
01:19:16than just hit a number.
01:19:18Here, let me show you. Look.
01:19:22That is my son.
01:19:23That's his wife and their two daughters.
01:19:27Look at him.
01:19:28They called me after 10 just to tell me
01:19:31the amazing time that they had last night.
01:19:34You have created more excitement in one night
01:19:39for this town than any business in years.
01:19:44I don't understand. What are you saying?
01:19:47I'm saying that you proved me wrong.
01:19:49You showed that you have what it takes
01:19:52to keep a place like Apple Hill alive long-term.
01:19:57I'm telling you that we're giving you the loan.
01:20:01Congratulations.
01:20:03Oh, thank you.
01:20:06Be careful.
01:20:11Hey, come on in.
01:20:12Grab a spot anywhere you'd like.
01:20:14I'll be right with you.
01:20:16Man, I've been thinking.
01:20:17Hey, Luke.
01:20:18I thought you went home.
01:20:19And you know what happens when I start thinking.
01:20:21Oh, no.
01:20:22I'll just get right to the point.
01:20:24Okay.
01:20:25Let's go into business together.
01:20:28I mean, I would love to,
01:20:30but hotels aren't exactly in my wheelhouse.
01:20:33Not the hotels.
01:20:34I want to expand the tavern.
01:20:37Are you being serious?
01:20:38Absolutely.
01:20:40You know, the other day when you said that
01:20:41it might be difficult for you to do it by yourself,
01:20:45I was thinking,
01:20:46how much fun would that be to do together?
01:20:49It'd be a lot of fun.
01:20:50Yeah?
01:20:51Yeah.
01:20:52You don't need time to think about it all.
01:20:54Hey, Candace, amazing news.
01:20:56All it takes is just one moment to change everything.
01:21:00To see that your dreams are still within reach.
01:21:04Well, this is becoming a habit.
01:21:07Habits take around 28 days to form.
01:21:10I think I've known you for around,
01:21:12let's see,
01:21:14here are the two,
01:21:15I've known you for 12 days.
01:21:17What are you doing here?
01:21:20Well, it looks like I'm on another
01:21:21permanent vacation to Landover.
01:21:25What about father?
01:21:27I think I'm still going to consult with them
01:21:28from time to time.
01:21:30The main focus is going to be to work with Jared
01:21:32on expanding the tavern.
01:21:35But I have to say,
01:21:37it's not the only reason I'm here.
01:21:40You are the reason.
01:21:43Are you going for this challenge?
01:21:46Do you mean being with you?
01:21:50I have never been more up for anything in my life.
01:21:54All it takes is to let down your guard,
01:21:58see life in a different light,
01:22:00and open your heart to the one person
01:22:03you've been searching for all along.
01:22:09Hi.
01:22:11Is this for you?
01:22:12It's for you.
01:22:13It's for me.
01:22:14It's so cute.
01:22:16Hey.
01:22:18Do you like surprises?
01:22:20Wash your tongue.
01:22:21Okay.
01:22:21Come here.
01:22:26To the right.
01:22:31Space barge.
01:22:35How did you...
01:22:36I made Tony an offer he could not refuse.
01:22:40Luke.
01:22:41Mm-hmm.
01:22:42You love space bars, right?
01:22:43I do.
01:22:44Yeah.
01:22:45You got quarters?
01:22:46Two players?
01:22:48Let's go.
01:22:49Yeah.
01:22:52Lucky we're on the same team.
01:23:00Ready?
01:23:02Yeah.
01:23:04Well, that should have been the high score.
01:23:07What is...
01:23:08C-heart-n?
01:23:11What is that?
01:23:12Yeah, Chuck and I,
01:23:14we weren't really sure how to tell you,
01:23:16but we're kind of the new champs.
01:23:20Not without a fight, you're not.
01:23:23Got more quarters?
01:23:24Yes, I do.
01:23:26And a kiss for good luck.
01:23:32Game on.
01:23:33No.
01:23:36No.
01:23:44No.
01:23:48No.
01:23:50No.
01:23:51No.
01:23:52No.
01:24:00You
