Transcript
00:02First, the Oak Tree by Mother's Creek wins.
00:04Maybe you can come to my way.
00:05Go, Abel!
00:06Goose and I will invite you to ours.
00:08On three!
00:09One!
00:11Two!
00:12Three!
00:12Let's go!
00:13Let's go!
00:15Go on!
00:15Come on!
00:17Fast it! Fast it!
00:23I've got you in this!
00:25I've got you now, Seth!
00:27Let me get him!
00:33You're mine now.
00:38No, no, no, no!
00:42Go, Seth!
00:44Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!
00:46Congratulations, Seth.
00:49Your maim warned you not to drive like that.
00:50She also told me to chase what matters most.
01:05Thanks for stopping with me.
01:07When I was growing up, my mom would always think my dad stopped at every estate sale and garage sale
01:11that we saw.
01:12Oh, wait.
01:13Am I becoming my mother?
01:15I do not mind the detour.
01:18It appears many others saw the sign as well.
01:22I hope it's not too picked over.
01:24A house this size has many hidden treasures.
01:28Yeah.
01:30Wow.
01:31It's beautiful.
01:32I wonder who lived here.
01:52Hello.
01:53Welcome.
01:54Hi.
01:54Hey.
01:55There's more to see in here, folks.
01:57Oh.
01:57Uh, go ahead.
01:58I will catch up.
02:00Okay.
02:01Thanks.
02:19Hi.
02:26Naomi Miller.
02:28I wouldn't expect to see you here.
02:30Anna, hi.
02:32I am here with my friend Cheryl Cooper.
02:34Is that Mitzi's niece?
02:36Yes.
02:36She is in town watching the store and her house and even her cat while she's gone.
02:42Well, how's Mitzi doing?
02:44New Guinea, right?
02:45She loves it.
02:47Oh.
02:48You've been good?
02:49Yeah.
02:50Go ahead.
02:51Take a look.
02:52Thanks.
02:56Oh.
02:58Wow.
02:59This is gorgeous.
03:01Is it for sale?
03:02Everything is.
03:03How much do you want for it?
03:05What about $200?
03:07I'll take it.
03:08Thanks.
03:10I will take the quilt.
03:11Excuse me?
03:12This young lady already...
03:13$300.
03:14We already have a deal.
03:15I will pay more.
03:16There's more quilts right over there.
03:18No, I want that one.
03:19We already agreed on the price.
03:21Sorry, she's right.
03:22She was here first.
03:23$400.
03:24That's more than it's worth.
03:25Sir, I think we are done here.
03:27Jacob, we should go.
03:30Forgive us.
03:40That's the first time I've ever seen anything like that.
03:42Yeah, me too.
03:44You can pay out on the porch.
03:45Thanks.
03:51I see you found your treasures.
03:56You're not getting those?
03:57I have too many baskets.
03:59My Anna.
04:08Can you believe that Amish guy?
04:10I have never seen him before.
04:12Huh.
04:14Didn't that car pull up behind us at the estate sale?
04:20Well, maybe they're going the same direction we are.
04:28Hang on.
04:33Why are you turning?
04:34We're being followed.
04:36Why would someone follow us?
04:38I don't know.
04:43I have some other colors in the back.
04:45Okay.
04:46Okay.
04:47Okay.
04:51Okay.
04:55Excuse me.
04:57I did not introduce myself at the estate sale.
04:59One of my many plunders.
05:01I'm Jacob Weller.
05:05Sheryl Cooper.
05:08You have a nice store.
05:10Is there something I can help you with, Mr. Weller?
05:15The quilt you purchased, I do not see it on display.
05:19That's because it's not for sale.
05:20I will give you $600 for it.
05:22A very reasonable offer.
05:24That is a nice offer, but it's still not for sale.
05:26I have others if you want to take a look.
05:28I'm not interested in another quilt.
05:29It must be that one.
05:35I will not take up any more of your time.
05:43Who is that?
05:44Jacob Weller.
05:45Doesn't sound familiar.
05:46He wants that quilt.
05:48He offered me $600.
05:50Why so much?
05:51That's what I'd like to know.
05:53Well, I should have told him to leave you alone.
05:55I'm just glad you came in when you did.
05:58What is going on?
05:59You forgot about me.
06:02Sorry, I was delayed.
06:04Is Esther ready?
06:05You're never going to believe who was just in here.
06:07Jacob Weller from the estate sale?
06:10I hope he did not behave the same.
06:11Well, he wanted to buy the quilt, and he offered me $600.
06:15And when I said no, he got very upset.
06:17And thankfully, that's when Levi walked in.
06:20I see.
06:23Forgive me for being impatient.
06:26I am glad you were here.
06:28Naomi, can you stay for a few minutes?
06:30I'd love to take another look at that quilt with you.
06:32Of course.
06:33I will take Esther to the hardware store to get the things we need.
06:36I promise I will not forget you.
06:40Esther, you ready?
06:41Mm-hmm.
06:45Bye.
06:46Bye, Cheryl.
06:47Bye.
06:51It is beautiful, but there must be something more to this quilt than meets the eye, for
06:57Jacob to be so zealous over it.
07:00You think I should have just let him buy it?
07:02That is hard to say.
07:05He no doubt has a secret.
07:09Naomi, is something bothering you?
07:12Why do you ask?
07:14Well, when you came in, you just weren't acting like yourself.
07:16And now I can't tell if you're upset about the quilt or if there's something else.
07:23I found this in Seth's pocket when I was doing laundry.
07:29You ruined my life?
07:31Meet me on the anniversary or else?
07:34Who wrote that?
07:36I do not know.
07:38Seth gets quite moody this time every year, and I just try to give him his space.
07:44Should you talk to him about it?
07:46If Seth thinks it is important for me to know, he won't tell me.
07:50So you're just going to ignore it?
07:52Seth was married before me.
07:54I cannot expect to know everything he has gone through.
07:57Aren't you worried?
07:59The Bible tells us not to worry, but to be thankful and to take everything to good in prayer.
08:08So, I will pray.
08:10What happens when Seth notices the note is missing?
08:14He will ask me.
08:16And if he doesn't?
08:18Then it was not important.
08:20Are you ready?
08:22Are you ready, Cheryl?
08:23Oh, you go on.
08:26Wait.
08:34What?
08:35Beau?
08:36What are you doing out here?
08:41Let's get out of here.
08:52I'm 10-23 at the Cooper Residence.
08:54Hospital break-in.
09:07You doing all right?
09:09Yeah.
09:11Looks like your time has scared them off.
09:13Whatever they were after, they didn't get it.
09:16This time.
09:17I think I have an idea of what they were after.
09:20A quilt.
09:20I bought it in an estate sale.
09:23There must be some kind of quilt.
09:25This Amish man wanted to buy it for me, but I can't believe he would break into my house.
09:30Well, I don't think they'll be back.
09:34But just in case, is there somewhere you can stay tonight?
09:39I'd feel a lot better if you weren't here alone.
09:45I'm starting to regret buying this quilt.
09:48Yeah.
09:49It has been nothing but trouble ever since you got it.
09:52There has to be some reason it's so important.
09:57You don't suppose?
10:02Something inside.
10:09There's only one way to find out.
10:11You do it.
10:22All right.
10:27Short of taking apart the whole quilt,
10:30I think it's safe to assume that whatever is valuable about it is on the outside.
10:38This is a beautiful quilt.
10:41Oh, look, it's torn.
10:43Oh, we did that.
10:45We thought there might be something hidden inside, but there's not.
10:48There has to be some hidden meaning.
10:51If we could find the person who made it, they could tell us.
10:55Won't that be like finding a needle in a haystack around here?
10:59Someone will recognize her work.
11:01It is unique.
11:03Levi, will you come here for a second?
11:09What is it?
11:09We need your help.
11:11We need to find out who made this quilt.
11:13I can only talk to so many people myself.
11:15Would you be willing to...
11:17I will ask around.
11:19Thanks.
11:20And I'll stop by the quilt shop, see if Agnes knows anything about it.
11:24Well, excuse me, I should go finish my chores in the barn.
11:29Good night.
11:30Good night, Esther.
11:31Good night.
11:33I'll stop by the courthouse in the morning, see if I can find out who owns the place where they
11:37had the estate sale.
11:38Doubt they are the person who made this, but they might know who did.
11:44Are you two still at it?
11:46No, we are done for the night.
11:48Seth, I really appreciate you letting me stay.
11:52Levi or I will install a new lock for you tomorrow.
11:56Sleep well.
11:57Good night.
12:00You sure it's okay if I stay here?
12:03Of course.
12:04It is not about you.
12:07Seth has...
12:09Something is weighing on him.
12:14You go on.
12:15I think I'll read for a little while.
12:17Good night.
12:18Night.
12:40You show up softly, never need in place.
12:46Simple kindness in the smallest ways.
12:51Every moment feels a little bright.
12:56Like you're guiding something in my life.
13:02Why is it so hard to take the first steps to cross that fragile line?
13:11When I look at you, I know your heart's true.
13:17This must be the sign.
13:20I've been learning to let go.
13:25So that I don't have to fight.
13:29All these feelings that I've grown for you overnight.
13:41Oh, what if we let our world collide?
13:47I want to make sure everybody is feeling about what seems...
13:51Excuse me.
13:53Excuse me.
13:54Oh.
13:54What could I do for you, young lady?
13:56I was wondering if I could find out who owns a specific property.
14:00Do you have the address?
14:02I do.
14:05Okay.
14:07Okay.
14:07Let me see here.
14:11Everything's on here now.
14:13I used to just have to go to a file, but I suppose this is faster.
14:32Looks like that place is owned by a gentleman named Kevin Gurt.
14:38I don't suppose you can tell me who owned the property before Mr. Gurt, could you?
14:41Let's see.
14:43Let's see.
14:51A lady by the name of Katie Brocker owned it.
14:55Yeah, it must have been 15 or 20 years ago when she bought it.
15:00But I remember it like it was yesterday.
15:05That little girl paid cash for that big old house.
15:09Goodness, she couldn't have been more than 18 or 19 years old then.
15:13Wow.
15:14How about...
15:15Do you want me to print this out for you?
15:16Please.
15:26Here you go.
15:29You're welcome.
15:31Oh, I'm this.
15:32Your book.
15:33Oh.
15:34Thanks.
15:35Have a good day.
15:47Oh, gosh.
15:48I'm so sorry.
15:49No, I'm sorry.
15:50I should have been looking where I was going.
15:54You knew Katie?
15:56I'm sorry.
15:56I don't think we've met.
15:57I'm Cheryl Cooper.
15:59Sorry, I have to go.
16:00Oh, what?
16:01Ah.
16:08Can you watch them play checkers?
16:11Hurry up.
16:12Hold on.
16:17How's the boy?
16:19Keeps to himself.
16:21Surprised to see him.
16:24They do.
16:28I only recognized him.
16:30God knows it's kinder.
16:32Of course.
16:34It's been years.
16:37Thirty.
16:40Why'd he come?
16:42Hasn't said.
16:44You talking about the boy that raced?
16:47That was something, was it not?
16:50What kind of race?
16:53Puggy.
17:02Here.
17:04Naomi.
17:05I want to show you something.
17:06Well, hello to you, too.
17:12Katie Bracker owned the house when she died.
17:15All right.
17:16And she was only 18 years old when she bought that house in cash.
17:19Well, that is unusual for such a young person.
17:22I say we go pay the new owner, Mr. Gern, a visit.
17:25See what he knows.
17:27Let's hope he is home.
17:37Hello.
17:37Well, hi.
17:38You're the woman with the quilt.
17:39I am.
17:40Come on in.
17:44We were wondering what you knew about Katie Brocker,
17:48the woman who owned the home before you.
17:49I didn't know her, but I sure have had a lot of people interested in her stuff.
17:54In her quilt, you mean?
17:55Not just the quilt.
17:56All her stuff.
17:58After you were here, some woman called.
18:00Said she wanted everything that was left.
18:02Paid me a pretty penny for her, too.
18:04Who was she?
18:05Catherine Ivey.
18:06One of those high society women, you know.
18:09Any idea what she did with Katie's things?
18:12She sent a truck.
18:13Driver mentioned something about a storage unit.
18:15Well, we appreciate the information, Mr. Grant.
18:18I don't suppose you'd like to sell that quilt?
18:21Not at the moment.
18:22When you do, I bet Mrs. Ivey will pay a pretty penny for it.
18:26Do you happen to have her phone number?
18:28I sure do.
18:36Take care.
18:38Did you get it?
18:39Yep.
18:402710, Bolton Lane.
18:45This is it.
18:47What a beautiful house.
18:54What should we ask her?
19:02May I help you?
19:03Hello.
19:04I'm Cheryl, and this is my friend Naomi.
19:07We're here to speak to Mrs. Ivey.
19:09Do you have an appointment?
19:11We will only need a moment of her time.
19:14May I tell her what your visit is regarding?
19:17It's about a quilt that I purchased from Kevin Gert.
19:32Please wait here.
19:39There are two women here who bought a quilt from Kevin Gert.
19:54Hello.
19:55Come join me.
19:56Hi.
19:57Would you like something to treat?
19:58No, thank you.
20:01Please.
20:01Sit down.
20:09Beatrice tells me that you've purchased a quilt.
20:11Yes, and we were wondering if you could tell us who made it.
20:15Well, I assume it was Katie Brocker.
20:17It was her estate sale, right?
20:18Did you know her?
20:20No, not really.
20:21But you purchased the rest of her belongings.
20:24Must have meant something to you.
20:26I collect antiques.
20:28I'm not sure why that's of interest to you.
20:30But I do have things to do.
20:32Sorry, we won't keep you.
20:34But if I did decide to sell the quilt...
20:43This is my attorney.
20:44He'll be more than happy to offer you generous terms on my behalf.
20:50Beatrice will see you out.
21:00All done.
21:01You are safe and secure.
21:04Thanks.
21:04I feel like I should pay you.
21:06What's a favor?
21:07Well, in that case, can I buy you an ice cream cone?
21:11If you insist.
21:12I do.
21:18Katie Brocker was Amish.
21:20You found her family?
21:21Not yet, but a friend of mine remembered hearing about it when she left.
21:25Well, did your friend say why she left?
21:27No.
21:28Her father might still live nearby, although if he does, it's not likely to talk.
21:32At least, not about family matters.
21:33But it's been 20 years.
21:36If so, when we cut ties, it must have been serious.
21:41That's really sad.
21:44Things have changed, but some communities still hold tightly to their traditions.
21:51Thank you for the ice cream.
21:53Thank you for the new lock.
22:06Cheryl, there is someone here to see you.
22:09Thanks.
22:12Hi.
22:13Is there something I can help you with?
22:15Hi.
22:16I'm Amelie Walker.
22:17I bumped into you on the street.
22:20I remember.
22:22Could we talk for a minute in private?
22:25Sure.
22:26You want to come into my office?
22:32What did you want to talk to me about?
22:35You purchased a quilt at the estate sale.
22:38I did.
22:39Well, I think that quilt might have been made by my mother.
22:42Or someone close to her.
22:44Was Katie Brocker your mother?
22:47Yes.
22:47My biological mother.
22:50A few months ago, Lucas Stanley, the attorney that handled my adoption, contacted me,
22:55saying that my mother had consented to the release of identifying information.
22:59I hoped that she heard I was looking for her and wanted to meet me.
23:04But it turns out that she left the request in her will.
23:07I'm so sorry.
23:09Thanks.
23:11I went to the estate sale, hoping to find information about my father.
23:14And did you?
23:16Not yet.
23:17But that's why I followed you home from the sale.
23:20And why I came to Sugar Creek looking for you.
23:22I'm not crazy.
23:24You thought I might know something about your parents.
23:27Well, the records listed Katie as Amish.
23:29And I saw you leave with the Amish woman.
23:31Do you know anything about your father?
23:34It's impossible to get information when your records are sealed.
23:37Sorry, I can't help you.
23:45The same attorney?
23:47There's no way.
23:48That's just a coincidence.
23:49Do you think Catherine Ivey knew Katie better than she said?
23:54Why would Catherine lie about that?
23:57Well, if Katie left her family, like Levi suggested, then Catherine could have helped her with a private adoption.
24:08What are you doing?
24:10Looking up Catherine Ivey's personal information.
24:14Should we be doing that?
24:17There.
24:18That's her husband.
24:20Clayton M. Ivey.
24:23Looks like they have one child together.
24:25A son.
24:27Hunter Ivey.
24:28Looks like Hunter went to Ohio State University.
24:32He's also an attorney.
24:35And he seems to be about the same age that Katie would have been.
24:38That does not mean we just found Amelie's father.
24:42No.
24:44But I think we should go find out if he is.
24:53Thank you for meeting with me, Mr. Ivey.
24:55My name is Cheryl Cooper.
24:56Cheryl, it's Hunter.
24:57Pleasure to meet you.
24:58Please, take a seat.
25:01I wanted to ask you about a woman named Katie Brocker.
25:04How did you know Katie?
25:06I didn't know of her until I bought a quilt at an estate sale.
25:11Hunter, Katie passed away.
25:15I'm sorry to hear that.
25:17Do you know what happened?
25:19An illness, I believe.
25:21I knew Katie when I was in high school.
25:24We met at a strawberry fest.
25:26She was Amish.
25:28You wouldn't think we had anything in common, but we just hit it off.
25:32Do you mind if I ask when the two of you lost touch?
25:36What is it exactly that you're looking for?
25:39After the estate sale, I met a young woman named Amelie Walker.
25:43She believes that Katie was her biological mother.
25:46How old is she?
25:48About 20 years old.
25:52I love Katie in the scooper.
25:54I was devastated when she broke up with me.
25:57I tried to keep in touch, you know, to see how she was.
26:01Months went by.
26:02Finally, I just gave up.
26:04I promise you, I didn't know anything about a child.
26:08Amelie was contacted by the attorney who handled her adoption.
26:11An attorney by the name of Lucas Stanley.
26:14Lucas Stanley?
26:16Yes, your mother's attorney.
26:18I can only assume that that's why your mother kept in touch with Katie all this time.
26:23She didn't?
26:24Neither of us have been in touch with Katie for 20 years.
26:26Are you sure about that?
26:28My mother would have told me about a baby.
26:30I'm sure you're right.
26:32But I do wonder why she purchased all of Katie's things.
26:35What things?
26:36Your mother bought everything that was left from the estate sale.
26:39Well, she hired a moving company to pack it up and take it to a storage unit.
26:43If Katie owned a house, that means she left the Amish church.
26:46I just wonder why she wouldn't be in contact with me, especially if we had a daughter together.
26:51That I don't know.
26:54I'll speak to my mother and get back to you.
27:01This is my number.
27:07About Amelie, I'd appreciate it if you gave her a little time before letting her know that you found me.
27:13I won't say a word.
27:15But Amelie doesn't want anything from you.
27:18She just wants to know where she came from.
27:35I shouldn't have told him everything.
27:37It was too much.
27:39Be patient.
27:41He will call.
27:47Oh, it's my computer.
27:54Look who it is.
28:01Hi, Aunt Mitzi.
28:02Naomi's here.
28:04Mitzi.
28:06Hello.
28:08We can see you all the way in New Guinea.
28:11Naomi, what a treat to see you.
28:14Hi.
28:15How are you doing there?
28:18Oh, I am busier than I have ever been.
28:20But I love it.
28:22Tell me, how are Seth and the children?
28:24Oh, they are all well.
28:26Thank you for asking.
28:28I will let you talk to your niece.
28:30Okay.
28:31Bye, Naomi.
28:34Oh, I am praying for you, Mitzi.
28:36That means the world to me.
28:41I have a feeling that you two are up to something.
28:44It's a long story with too many family secrets.
28:47Well, there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will
28:52not be made known or brought out into the open.
28:55So tell me, how are things going with Levi?
28:58Aunt Mitzi, Levi, and I are just friends.
29:00I know there are obstacles, but I just...
29:03Obstacles would be an understatement.
29:05I just don't want you to regret not at least Trump.
29:09Can we talk about this later?
29:10Oh, yes.
29:12Of course.
29:13There is something I wanted to ask you about.
29:15I heard Mrs. Lehman asking Ruben about some kind of racist.
29:18Do you know anything about that?
29:19Well, the young Amish men used to race buggies for sport.
29:23It was looked down on because it was...
29:25Could be dangerous on those curvy roads at night.
29:27But I remember seeing one or two myself.
29:31That must have been close to 30 years now.
29:35Why would they be talking about something that far in the past?
29:38I don't know.
29:39But if you're interested, I kept a box of your Uncle Ralph's photos in the basement.
29:44You're welcome to look through them.
29:46I thought the Amish didn't approve of photos.
29:48Well, Ralph never showed them to anyone.
29:51That's why they let him take them.
29:53Well, see what I can find.
29:55All right.
29:56Take care.
29:57And give everyone there, my love.
29:58I will.
29:59Bye, Aunt Mitzi.
30:00Bye.
30:08Is it him?
30:12Hello?
30:13Hi, Cheryl.
30:14It's Hunter.
30:15I spoke with my mother.
30:16Hey, Hunter.
30:17What did she say?
30:18She never admitted to knowing anything about a baby.
30:20But she did purchase Katie's things.
30:22I convinced my mother to give me the key for the storage unit.
30:26Could you bring Amelie?
30:28I'd like to meet her.
30:29Does four o'clock work for you?
30:31Yes, that's great.
30:32I'll send you the address.
30:34Okay.
30:34Bye, Hunter.
30:38He wants to meet Amelie.
30:40Oh.
30:41Good.
30:42Good.
30:43Good.
30:44Good.
30:45Good.
30:46Good.
30:46Good.
30:47Good.
30:47Good.
30:48Good.
30:48Good.
30:49Good.
30:49Good.
30:50Good.
30:50Good.
30:50Good.
30:51Good.
30:53Good.
30:54Hi, Cheryl.
30:56Hi again.
30:57Hunter.
30:58This is Levi, Naomi, and Amelie.
31:02You look like Katie.
31:05Thanks.
31:08I hear you've been looking for your mother for a long time.
31:12Yes.
31:21Let me help you.
31:27Let's turn the boxes outside.
31:29Look how full it is.
31:38These letters are all from Katie to her mother.
31:41And they were never mailed.
31:50Always the pictures of Katie.
31:52I took this picture of her when she was in Rumspray.
31:55Where was this taken?
31:56At the Broca Farm.
32:05It's me.
32:09I remember this dress from a box of keepsakes.
32:15Why wouldn't she want me?
32:19Read this last paragraph.
32:22This letter is from your grandmother to your mother.
32:30Someone took me from my mother?
32:40Please know that we acted in love.
32:43Someday I pray this quilt will lead you back to her.
32:46To us.
32:48Most of all, I pray it leads you home.
32:51With all my love.
32:54Ma'am.
32:56So her mother made the quilt and then gave me away because I was an inconvenience.
33:02Katie would never do that.
33:04How do you know?
33:05Because I knew Katie.
33:06She was the kindest, most loving person I know.
33:10She would never view the baby as an inconvenience.
33:12She let someone take me.
33:15Amelie, your mother was very young.
33:19Cheryl, did you bring the quilt?
33:21Mm-hmm.
33:23Let's go see what Katie's family knows.
33:27Mm-hmm.
33:39I can't bring it, but I bet it was Jacob that broke into my house.
33:44Come on in.
33:45This is Jacob.
33:46You remember him from the sale, I'm sure.
33:49Yes, of course.
33:50He dropped by my place the other day.
33:52We just missed each other.
33:55Didn't we?
33:56Yeah.
33:57This is my mother, Naomi.
33:58These are our friends Cheryl and Amelie.
34:00And you remember Hunter.
34:04Please sit.
34:16I thought I would not see you again.
34:19Your last words to me were, do not come back.
34:24Amelia made this quilt, ain't so?
34:26Yeah.
34:26Amelia was a skilled quilter.
34:29She's gone now.
34:31That's why the quilt was so important to us.
34:34I can understand that.
34:36Katie and I did not often see eye to eye.
34:38Amelia, I could not forgive my Katie for falling low with you, and she could not forgive me for refusing
34:45to accept you.
34:49That's why she left.
34:51Her mother made that quilt hoping one day it would bring her back to us.
34:57Why would you treat your daughter like that just because she was pregnant?
35:00What is this you say of Katie?
35:02Is this true about Katie?
35:06You either know or you do not.
35:10I love Katie very much.
35:13And she loved me.
35:15I wanted to marry her.
35:18I would never have walked away from my child.
35:20I didn't even know she existed until a few days ago.
35:24I hope you can believe that.
35:26I hope you both can't believe that.
35:29Remember the letter your grandmother wrote to Katie?
35:32Someday, I pray this quilt brings you back to us.
35:37She was praying that you and your mother would come home.
35:47Your grandmother made this quilt with love, and I expect some tears.
35:53This quilt belongs to you, Emily.
35:56But she helped with...
35:58Whatever she did, she did out of love for her and you.
36:01Do you know how you got your name?
36:06Amelia?
36:10Katie named me after her mother.
36:13It was my fault.
36:14Katie could not keep you.
36:18I was too stubborn.
36:22Amelia must have gone looking for her and they found someone who could help me.
36:26They were only doing what they thought was.
36:28You remind me, Ochoa.
36:30That's what Hunter said.
36:32I would very much like to get to know you, Emily.
36:36And your father.
36:41We would really like her.
36:46I found this in a box in the basement.
36:48Aunt Mitzi said Uncle Ralph took it.
36:50Oh, look, Seth.
36:52How young and handsome you are.
36:56Of course you still are.
36:58What would you know?
36:59You were just a child.
37:01Yes.
37:02That was a lifetime ago.
37:04This is your mother.
37:06She was beautiful.
37:08Good wife and mother.
37:10I must confess, I get a little melancholy this time of year around Ruth's death.
37:15Does not mean anything about you, Naomi.
37:17I would drive Ruth home from the singings as often as I could.
37:21I would try to talk to her alone or invite her to a walk.
37:25But Abel Vogel would also do the same.
37:29In fact, it seems to me that if he knew I was going to ask her to a walk,
37:33he would try to beat me to it.
37:36Then, when Ruth wasn't looking, he would give me a cocky grin.
37:41I couldn't tell if he genuinely cared about Ruth
37:43or if he was just trying to take pleasure in besting me.
37:48What about Mom?
37:49What did she think of him?
37:50Oh, Levi, your mother married Seth.
37:53Abel was always taunting me,
37:55telling me that he was spending more time with Ruth.
37:58I wanted to put an end to it once and for all.
38:00So, I pulled Abel aside and I proposed that the winner of our race
38:03would have the opportunity to court Ruth.
38:05And the loser would step aside.
38:08A waiter?
38:09It was not right.
38:11And I was not yet baptized,
38:12so I was not bound by the Horton onion that way.
38:15You mean you look so joyful to win a chance to court Mom?
38:19No, son, I gambled with our lives and our futures that day.
38:23And I am ashamed of the pleasure I took in defeating Abel
38:28and taking from him what he thought was his future.
38:30Ruth loved you.
38:33Look how happy she is, too.
38:36What happened to the races?
38:38They were never really the same after that.
38:41After Ruth and I married, Abel moved away and never came back.
38:45Look, we hurt a lot of people with our foolishness.
38:48The note I found in your pocket, that was from Abel?
38:52Yes.
38:54After 30 years, he wanted to meet and tell me that he had peace
38:59and that I had not taken away his life with Ruth.
39:03We have forgiven each other.
39:05That is good.
39:06I knew you were bothered by something.
39:10Naomi, I did not mean to keep this from you.
39:14And if I have made you feel, even for a moment,
39:19that I have not loved you as I loved Ruth, forgive me.
39:24You are first best in God's perfect plan.
39:31For some, the truth was painful.
39:33For others, it brought peace.
39:36But in the end, forgiveness opened the door to something even deeper.
39:40Grace.
39:42Grace.
39:42Grace.
39:42Grace.
39:43Grace.
