When Calls The Heart (2014) s13e06 Episode Script

Moment of Truth

1
Previously on When Calls the Heart
Mr. Gowan.
Toby and Cooper made a campfire
before the fire started.
It's probably what caused it.
I read about that.
- [GASPS]
- [ROSEMARY] Lee?
What you experienced
was an anxiety neurosis.
I was very focused on trying
to prove my worth to you.
It was foolish.
I regret my rash words.
Looks like some burnt cement.
The bigger question is, what was it?
[ELIZABETH] Oh.
Even after all these years,
I never tire of this view.
Eh. It's okay.
[LAUGHS]
No, I'm happy to be here.
Despite the dreadful early hour.
[LAUGHS]
I'm just trying to steal
some time for just us.
Yeah, well,
that's some stealing this
Mountie can get behind.
How are you, Nathan, honestly?
Honestly, I've been a
little obsessed with this
fire investigation that
I can't seem to close.
You practically live behind
that desk of yours these days.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
No, I mean, like
I mean, like I should
be able to close it.
Protocol regulation. It's done.
Anyways, I'm sorry.
We came up here not to talk
about the investigation.
[SIGHS]
We're not here to forget.
Just to take a step back and
appreciate what we have.
Smell the roses.
Right now, in this moment,
we can just be together.
I like that.
Good morning, Henry.
Oh! I can come back.
Oh no, you're here now.
How can I help, my friend?
Oh, I'm all right.
What's the tool box for?
Oh. Elizabeth asked me to
check on a sagging door.
Can I help you?
I'd appreciate that.
Oh.
I need a new hinge, or?
Yeah. Probably a shim, too.
Joseph, what do you
do if someone you love
did something that's
horrible?
If your brother sins, rebuke him.
If he repents, forgive him.
What if it's unforgivable?
Well, that's not for us to judge.
You know, Henry, I'd be lying
if I said I wasn't struggling,
knowing that my own son
may have started that
fire, even by accident.
All I can do is be there for him.
Love him.
That's all any of us can do.
Cooper's a good kid.
When I was his age,
all I was looking for
was an easy way out.
A long time after that, too.
Well, you found your way.
That's what matters.
Sometimes just standing
beside our loved ones,
no matter what they may have done,
is all the guiding light they need.
And the greatest blessing.
[PENSIVE MUSIC]
[JOSEPH] All right.
[JOSEPH CLEARS THROAT]
Yeah.
Good as new.
It's got a beat.
[LAUGHING]
Thanks, my friend.
Thank you, Joseph.
Have a good rest of your day.
You too.
- [REEL WHIRS]
- Whoa, whoa, whoa!
[LEE] No matter what I do.
Come on!
Jeez. What are you, Moby Dick?
[LEE] No matter how hard I
reel, I just can't pull it up.
- [ROSEMARY] And that's it?
- Yep. That's it.
- Breakfast.
- No, no, wait just a second.
We are going to see what Doctor
Freud has to say about this.
Rosie, it's just a dream.
A recurring dream.
Okay, you know what? I'm
gonna put on some coffee.
[GRUNTS]
Aha!
Here it is.
Fishing symbolizes dreamers
need to bring something to the surface.
Well, that's the whole point. I can't.
Exactly. I think
the reason you can't
bring it out of the water
is because your subconscious mind
is suppressing whatever
it is the fish represents.
So what do you think it is?
I don't know. Maybe a marlin?
Or a trout? Big tuna?
Ha ha.
You are going to laugh yourself
right back into the infirmary.
Or worse.
Oh, come on, sweetheart.
No. You come on.
You're not the one who had to
watch the love of your life,
grasping his chest and
struggling to breathe.
You're absolutely right.
Sweetheart,
I promise you, I will do
exactly what you tell me to do.
All right.
- Okay.
- Okay.
As soon as I get home from the office
- No!
- I have to meet with the new contractor
- No!
- Fernando. Yes.
No work.
No office.
[SCOFFS]
Can you bring me to the
clinic every morning?
It was fun in Cape Fullerton, wasn't it?
I miss riding the carousel with you.
Awe. Me too.
I wish you were my sister.
Then we could do
everything together forever.
Hi, honey bear.
Are you all done with Doctor Carter?
A model patient, as always.
Allie's coming for
dinner, and Mountie Nathan.
Tonight?
Forever!
Um, where's my invitation
to this dinner, young man?
You can come, too.
I wouldn't want to impose.
Not at all. There's room for everyone.
Yeah, I can help you cook.
[ALLIE CHUCKLES]
Can I talk to you for a second?
Okay, kiddos. Let's see
if Minnie has any muffins.
[TOGETHER] Mhm.
Bye!
So the last of the maps came
in from Pioneer Electric.
- And?
- It's a dead end.
None of their equipment was
near the fire's area of origin.
Unfortunately, there's no way to know
where that concrete came from.
Doesn't leave us many leads, does it?
Just one.
Are you expecting someone?
Is that a crime?
No, just
I didn't know we both were.
Name's Elmore Briggs. Constable Grant?
Briggs. Welcome to Hope Valley.
Hello, Bill.
Lovely to see you.
Hello, Georgie.
Oh. Leave some muffins
for the rest of us.
Hi, Allie.
These aren't just for me.
Your dad wanted me to get some.
My dad does love muffins.
And as Constable, it's within his rights
to commandeer as many as he wants.
Mmhm. [LAUGHS]
Well, I gotta get back. See ya.
Bye, Ollie.
What's that called again?
A polygraph machine, sir.
It's going to revolutionize
detective work.
Did you know about this?
Yes.
Headquarters thought it'd be
helpful for the investigation.
The young constable and I
enjoyed a spirited debate on the train.
Science versus instinct.
When it comes to detecting a lie,
a polygraph is far more reliable.
Human intuition, or instinct,
can be influenced by
any number of factors.
A machine has no such deficiencies.
Well, a Mountie's intuition
is a different breed.
Remember that young man.
We'll test them both.
I'm going to get set up.
Oh, Oliver.
I see Operation Muffins was a success.
Go help Constable Briggs
clear up the desk and
set up the polygraph.
Yes, sir.
Judge Avery, Inspector McGill.
Oh, offer him a muffin.
So, Georgie, how long
are you staying with us?
As long as it takes to help Miss Martell
get National Insurance to pony up
to its Benson Hill policy holders.
They are pulling some fast
ones on denying the claims.
I recommended her to Edie
because nobody's better
at using forensics to sniff out
how these companies try to hide
their illicit funds in their books.
Oh. Smart move.
Say, uh, why don't you
join us later for the
What did Briggs call it?
The the calibration.
I might just enjoy seeing
your new toy in action.
Come on. I'll walk
you over to the office.
[SCRAPING SOUNDS]
[CREAKING SOUNDS]
[CLEARS THROAT]
You seem to have an affinity
for moving heavy furniture.
You're the one who keeps coming
to my aid despite the peril.
It's simply an affinity for you.
I don't suppose you're free for dinner?
Regrettably, no.
I'm hosting a charity
poker tournament tonight.
I should have guessed
the moving of tables
wasn't simply for sport.
Well, it actually is.
Kind of.
The Benson Hills Recreation
Center isn't covered
by territorial relief funds,
so I'm helping them to raise some money.
Well, I can take that
up with the council
and chip in, so to speak.
Oh, Lucas, I'm not
asking for your money.
I think you'd agree,
well, I can hold my
own at a poker table.
Oh, I guess we'll see tonight.
Hm.
Faith, what a lovely
surprise! Come on in.
Thank you.
I have news about Gwendolyn's father.
Is she here?
Yes, yes, she's right out back.
Gwen!
Oh my gosh.
What's going on? Is he okay?
Hi, Gwen.
Your dad is more than okay.
His doctor from Buxton
Hospital called me and told me
that he's no longer
at risk of infection.
So they're allowing visitors now.
We can go today, if you like.
Okay. I have to get ready.
Go, go get ready.
I have to get the
It's all right. I'll
get it for you. Go on.
Thank you for coming to
deliver such happy news.
Oh, the pleasure is all mine.
How are you doing, Lee?
Uh, I'm not as good as that, but, uh,
all in all, I'm doing
pretty good, I think.
I've been reminding him to breathe.
Always a good idea.
[GROANS]
Ok, fine.
[INHALES DEEPLY, EXHALES]
- See?
- Mmhm.
Oh, my gosh!
I am so sorry.
You should watch where
you're going, amigo.
You're absolutely right.
Please let me help you up.
Governor Bouchard.
Mr. Arroyo, are you all right?
Yes. All's well. Thank you.
No, it's-it's completely my fault.
I shouldn't walk and
read at the same time.
Mike, would you please
pour this gentleman a drink.
Immediamente.
I picked up a little Español
on my honeymoon down in Miami.
Are these plans for the
Benson Hills rebuild?
You know about it?
Intimately.
Fernando Arroyo, Coulter
Construction's new contractor.
Lucas Bouchard, at your service.
I was hoping to meet with Mr. Coulter
as soon as I checked in.
I'm afraid Mr. Coulter's wife
has him on a new health regimen.
It limits his weekend work.
Well, I have no such regimen or wife.
I'm happy to share my
ideas for those plans,
if you're interested.
Ideas are exactly
what I'm interested in.
Please.
Hey there, boys. Fill it up for us?
There we go.
Thank you very much.
Hey.
Take my word for it. He's gonna love it.
It's not smooth enough.
Are you kidding me?
I can only wish to carve like that.
I don't want to go anymore.
Wait. Why?
Can we just go back?
Please?
Gwen, your dad is gonna
be so excited to see you.
That's the real gift
here, not the stick.
No.
I just can't go.
I can't.
Okay.
All right.
If that's what you really
want, I'm fine with that.
It's okay.
If there was a torture device
in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,
- this would be it.
- It's more H.G. Wells to me,
but not quite a time machine.
Or a self-made ticker tape.
Here ya go.
Trust me, I've heard it all.
But wait till you see it in action.
Now, who wants to help
me with the calibration?
Oh, you need a guinea pig?
[TOGETHER] You're up.
- Me?
- [SNAPS FINGERS]
Arms up.
Lean forward.
Thank you for the muffin, by the way.
The device measures heartbeat,
blood pressure and respiration.
The readouts are recorded here.
You're nervous.
I could've told you that.
Don't touch cards,
Constable, but pick one
and don't tell me which one.
All right then.
What's your full name?
Oliver Marion Garrett.
In which city or town were you born?
I-I don't know.
What's your favorite food?
Liverwurst.
Now the cards.
One by one I'll ask you if each
card is the one that you selected.
I want you to answer no to all of them,
including the one that
you chose. Understood?
Is your card the ace of spades?
No.
Is your card the Queen of Hearts?
No.
Is your card the King of Diamonds?
No.
Your card
is the Queen of Hearts.
That's right.
Hm.
Boys and their toys.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Constable.
I want to ask one question.
Oliver.
Why don't you tell me just
what you really think of
what you had for breakfast this morning.
Uh.
I liked it. A lot.
Bill made waffles.
I'm going to have to try these waffles.
Indeed.
Georgie.
Why don't you join us for
dinner tonight at Elizabeth's?
- Bill's coming.
- Oh, I'm sure she has other plans.
That would be wonderful.
We could walk there
together if you'd like.
I'd like that very much.
Dad.
What are you doing here?
Tell me about this.
Why do you even know what that is?
Constable Grant found
this mysterious concrete
where the fire started.
He asked me if I knew what it was.
I didn't.
'Til I found the same thing
in the trunk of your car.
Well, I learned from the best, didn't I?
Learn this.
Whatever your involvement in this is,
whatever you stand to
gain, it ain't worth it.
It's just business.
No, it's not.
Don't trade your
humanity for a paycheck.
Don't talk to me about my humanity.
You traded yours my whole life
instead of be a father to me yourself.
That's fair.
Look at me.
Look what I got for
sitting where you are now.
I lost all those years.
I'll never get 'em
back. Neither of us will.
This is your moment of truth.
I don't think it was an
accident that you left
this in the trunk of your car.
I think that there was a part of you
that wanted someone to find it.
I'm talking to that part right now.
Yeah, well, it's
- it's too late now anyway.
No, it's not too late.
You don't have to condemn
those boys for your mistake.
You talk to Constable
Grant, you unburden yourself.
If you don't, the way
you're feeling right now?
It'll never leave you.
You got a decision to make.
I hope you make the right one.
[PENSIVE MUSIC]
[DOOR CLOSES]
I used poured concrete
bricks on dozens of homes
when Pine Creek opened
for development last year.
That was you?
I approved that.
Smart.
Concrete is better looking
[TOGETHER] and more fire-resistant.
[LUCAS CHUCKLES]
How have we not met before?
Because I was a cowboy
until just a few years ago.
Herding cattle, training horses.
My other passion.
You're a true Renaissance man.
[CHUCKLES]
I follow my heart's desires, that's all.
Fernando. Thank you.
But I need to make a stop at home
before my evening plans tonight.
And we still need to find time
to take in an automobile race.
I would love that, Governor.
Oh, Lucas, please.
Do you play poker?
Play? No.
I live for poker.
Why do you ask?
Because you're going
to be my guest tonight
at a charity poker event.
If you're free, of course.
It will be my pleasure, Lucas.
Why are we stopping?
[EXHALES]
Mm. You smell that, kiddo?
What?
Fresh water.
A little breeze on the face.
Maybe just a smidge of good luck.
Are you having another episode?
No, I am not having another episode.
Thank you very much.
We just so happen to be near
one of my favorite honey holes.
A pond for fishing.
So what do you say?
Why?
What do you mean, why?
It's a beautiful day, and
even though it's not technically
on the clipboard list of
approved relaxation activities,
I think Rosie might let it slide.
Where are we going to get rods and bait?
Oh, ye of little faith.
Come on, young woman. Let's go.
See, Henry keeps, or Mr. Gowan,
always keeps something here
for anybody driving by who
might want a little tranquility.
There you go.
So, do you know how to bait a hook?
Watch me.
That's a good one.
My dad taught me to leave
the tail dangling, like this,
- so the fish sees it.
- Mmm.
But how do you know
which end is the tail?
You're funny.
Sort of.
[LEE HUMMING]
I don't get it.
Huh?
You thought you had a heart
attack, but you didn't.
So why do you still have to
be doing all this relaxing?
Um, because my wife is smarter
than me, and she loves me.
My mom loved my dad,
but she died.
Now my dad just has me.
I'm um
I'm sorry about your mom.
She'd been sick for a while.
Dad took me to the hospital every day.
I hated seeing her there.
Everyone kept telling
me she'd get better.
Yeah.
Sometimes, uh, Gwen
sometimes people just don't.
I'm so sorry, Gwen.
Now everyone keeps telling
me my dad is going to be fine,
but people who are fine
don't go to the hospital for this long.
Hey.
Look at me. This is
important, all right?
Your dad is not sick
the way your mom was.
I promise you that.
The worst thing that's going
to happen is we're going to go
to the hospital, and you're
going to see a big white
plaster cast on his leg. That's it.
If anything, it's just
going to look kind of funny.
- Really?
- Yes!
Seeing you is going to give him hope.
And it's gonna put a big
old smile on his face, huh?
Like that. Yes. Like
that one right there.
You should have seen his smile
when we got to the top of
Mount Kilwaukee last summer.
Oh, yeah?
He carried me on his
shoulders most of the way,
and we camped out for two whole weeks,
and he taught me all
about the constellations.
That sounds like a lot of fun.
[REEL WHIRRING]
Whoa whoa whoa whoa!
I think you got one!
He's a fighter, but I got him.
Easy there, fella.
Keep it going. Keep it going.
Come on.
Oh, I got him, I got him, I got him!
[GRUNTS] There we go.
Ho ho!
Look at that! He's a beaut!
Beautylicious!
My dad's word for pretty
animals that taste good.
It's a good word.
Won't Rosemary be surprised
when we bring home this
beautylicious fish for dinner?
Can we go see my dad first?
Absolutely we can, kiddo.
I'll just put this guy on ice,
and then you two can take
all the time you want.
Thank you, Mr. Coulter.
It is my absolute pleasure.
Thank you for having
us, Elizabeth, Nathan.
These are for you.
Oh, my goodness, they're gorgeous.
Thank you. I'll just put
them in water. Please.
- Uncle Bill!
- Awe, Jackaroo!
Hey, hey, hey!
Actually, he's going by "LJ" now.
LJ, huh?
I still like Jackaroo.
There's no "little".
Oh.
That is a good point.
Jackaroo stands.
- Yes, it does.
- Hi. Judge Avery.
Hi, Allie.
You guys remember my friend
Inspector McGill, don't you?
Also known as "X-ray McGill".
Oh, will you stop with that?
Nice to see you again, Inspector McGill.
Hi, Inspector X-ray.
- [LAUGHING]
- No, it's Inspector McGill.
Uncle Bill just has the funnies tonight.
How'd you get the nickname?
It was in forensics class
in RCMP basic training.
Bill started calling
me that, and it stuck.
Because she was so
good at reading people.
She could always tell
if someone was lying.
And apparently there is a
machine that can do that now.
Do you mean the polygraph?
That's right. Word spreads fast.
People have to tell the truth,
or they get in trouble. Right?
Well, the idea is that it can
tell if people are lying or not.
But if they get in trouble afterwards,
that's a separate issue.
LJ, let's see if you can tell
if I'm lying or telling the truth.
I brought you a brand new
box of Crayola crayons.
Oh, boy. I think it's the truth.
You're right!
[BILL] Ha!
Thank you, Inspector McGill.
You're welcome, Mr. Jackaroo.
And I understand we have
a budding young writer
with us this evening.
Inspector McGill.
Thank you.
That's very thoughtful.
It's awful sweet of you.
Hey, let's go find some paper.
Yeah!
Thanks again, Inspector.
Have fun, you two.
Well, I should check on dessert.
I hope you all like lemon curd.
Oh. It smells delicious.
- Yes, it does.
- It's Nathan's favorite.
Yes. It's the best
dessert that I ever had.
Better than my mother's blueberry pie.
Welcome home.
[LEE] Hey, sweetheart.
I'm going to bed, if that's okay.
Oh, of course, kiddo. Yeah.
Sweet dreams.
Hmm.
Is she okay?
What happened at the hospital?
Sweetheart, I wish
you'd have been there.
It was beautiful.
She and James were over
the moon to see each other.
They talked for hours, and
Might have got a
little choked up myself.
Of course you did.
You're a big old softie, Leland Coulter.
Sometimes. And
I got dinner, did a little fishing.
It's your dream.
No, not like the dream.
Okay, well, a little bit, maybe.
I suppose it made me realize
that I want to spend more
one-on-one time with Goldie.
So starting tomorrow,
it's going to be
daddy-daughter berry picking,
followed by daddy-daughter
ice cream lunch.
If that could be on the approved list
of relaxation activities.
It can be added.
Excellent.
So it seems as though
Doctor Freud was right.
Pays to take the time to
reach down into the water
to see what might be
lurking below the surface.
Mm-mm. It was dinner, Rosie.
It was a beautylicious dinner
lurking below the surface.
- Beautylicious?
- Uh-huh.
Okay.
More dessert, anyone?
Oh, no thank you, Elizabeth.
You're gonna have to take me
out of here in a wheelbarrow.
I'm afraid I'm going to have
to wave the white flag as well.
Me, too.
What about you, Nathan? Any
room for more lemon curd?
Oh, I think I'll be joining
Bill in that wheelbarrow
if I have any more.
But please save some for tomorrow.
That stuff is gold.
All right.
Time to get ready for bed, LJ.
Can Allie read to me?
Of course.
Thank you.
They are such great kids.
Amen to that.
- I couldn't agree more.
- Thank you.
I loved watching LJ
try to wrap his brain
around the polygraph.
Kids, they have no fear of
this new fangled technology.
I think it's couples that could
benefit the most from the polygraph.
Mm.
I actually think that
total honesty is more suited
for best friends than for couples.
People want a little
mystery with their romance.
I disagree.
Nathan and I don't
have any secrets, do we?
That's right.
What? What is that?
Oh, my neck. I must
have pulled something.
Really?
Okay. It's pretty clear
that you're not honest
with Elizabeth about everything.
What is that supposed to mean?
What are you getting at, Bill?
You really want to know?
- Absolutely.
- I'm an open book.
The lemon curd.
Clearly not your favorite, Constable.
- [ELIZABETH LAUGHS]
- What?
See that reaction? A
little over the top.
- Yeah.
- I'm sorry, my friend.
My love and devotion for
Elizabeth's lemon curd is
unassailable.
Mm.
What do you think, X-ray McGill?
Oh, yeah.
He can't stand it.
- Your voice goes up at the end.
- Yeah.
- Really?
- Very funny. It
Never mind. I mean,
we are off the clock.
Yeah. Forget it.
Your voice did kind of go up at the end.
[NATHAN SCOFFS]
You too, Elizabeth?
Oh, you just did it again.
I was asking a question.
Your voice naturally goes
up at the end of a question.
There is one way we could settle this.
The polygraph.
Oh. Right. Sure. The poly
Well. Why not?
Uh, well, um
For starters, it's pretty late
to call on Constable Briggs.
Right?
Even in the interest of science?
He said he could always use
more testing and calibrating.
The machine could use more
testing and calibrating, Nathan.
Isn't that a fact, Bill?
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!
Uh, we couldn't help overhearing.
Can we come too?
Please?
LJ has been asking to see the polygraph.
It'll be educational.
[TOGETHER] Let's go.
Yay!
Uh, guys, this, uh-we're [STAMMERS]
Well, I hope you're all enjoying this.
Oh, we are.
All those wires and buttons.
Thanks for letting us come, Dad.
You're very welcome.
Although I think somebody else
should be sitting in this chair.
Why? You have nothing
to worry about, right?
Right. It's just, you know,
this technology, it's
not 100 percent.
That's a fact.
Actually, Mounties invariably
get the most accurate readings
because of our training,
temperaments and
reverence for the truth.
See? You got the perfect
temperament and reverence.
Uh please don't touch that.
Sorry.
- Actually, you're not.
- What?
[ELIZABETH LAUGHS]
We're up and running.
We should have brought popcorn.
And we're ready to start.
- [CLEARS THROAT]
- What's your full name?
Nathan Archibald Grant.
In which city or town were you born?
Winnipeg.
Is Elizabeth Thornton's lemon
curd your favorite dessert?
Yes.
Not true, Constable.
Mountie Nathan lied?
Well, according to the polygraph.
LJ, you know, we're
just testing the machine.
So you meant to lie.
Well, not really.
These polygraphs, they're
not 100 percent accurate.
Constable. Due respect, but, uh,
this is as clear and definitive a result
as we get on the model 45972-G.
Constable, I'm sure it is. That's great.
Elizabeth, look, I love your
lemon curd because I love you.
That's true.
Okay, well, that's not exactly the same.
No, it is really.
I don't mind saying this in
front of everybody here, but
my love for you is so much
bigger than some dessert.
Because it means the world to me.
Just like you mean the world to me.
Does that mean you're going to
marry my mama, Mountie Nathan?
Well, that's a funny question, LJ.
I wasn't trying to be funny.
Um,
of course not.
Uh, well, I was thinking
[DOOR OPENS]
Oh, I'm so-so sorry,
I-I didn't realize
No. Christopher, what can we do for you?
Hola.
Fernando. Thank you for coming.
I don't suppose you'd
join me at my table.
With pleasure.
Buenos noches, Señor Arroyo.
I'm glad to see the two of you
aren't butting heads anymore.
Thanks, Mike. Quite
the opposite, in fact.
Un pequito
I have to admit, I scoured the papers
for every upcoming automobile race
and found there's a
Roscoe Champions event
next Saturday afternoon
at the speedway in Devereaux City.
I'll be there.
I don't suppose you'd mind
if I invited a certain special
lady friend of mine who I
think might enjoy it, too.
Ladies are always welcome.
Excellent.
Because you are about to meet her.
Edie, I would love to
introduce you to my brilliant,
talented new friend
Fernando?
Well, you two already know each other.
Indeed. You have excellent
taste in ladies, my friend.
Uh, Fernando worked on
my Uncle Ernie's ranch
the summer that I lived
there before law school.
The summer that you met your fiancé?
Ex.
Fiancé.
Uh
So can we just, uh,
check in tomorrow?
Of course.
Good night.
Good night.
So, Christopher,
what can we do for you?
I know what started the wildfire.
And it wasn't those boys.
The morning after the fire started,
I was called into this
meeting with my uh,
my boss, Shelby Whitaker
and Patrick McDougall.
He's Pioneer Electric's
chief technician.
They wanted me to go and
retrieve what was left of this-
this transformer box
in that spot you showed
my dad a few days ago.
Whoa, wait, he-he told you about that?
Yeah, only after he found these.
In the trunk of my car.
I guess I got a little
sloppy and left some behind.
So the transformer
Started the fire.
Mr. Whittaker knew it.
Mr. McDougall knew it.
They talked about it.
Wait a minute. This map
that your company provided,
it shows that that transformer
is at least two miles
away from that spot.
The new one.
But that's dated two
weeks before the fire.
It's backdated.
You mean fraudulent?
I didn't mean for those
boys to get in trouble.
Where is the transformer right now?
Mr. Whittaker wanted me to
dump it in the Brookhaven River,
but I couldn't bring
myself to do that, so
I buried it in the
foothills north of Buxton.
Do you remember where?
I think so.
You need to show me where you
buried it tomorrow morning.
You're doing the right thing.
Your old man would be proud of you.
I can't say I'd be here if
he hadn't figured it out.
So I guess it's a good
thing he did, right?
Remember, his nickname is "Home Run".
Unfortunately for him,
his teammate's Babe Ruth.
Who hit 59 home runs last year.
The Babe hit 59, and Home
Run himself only hit ten.
So embarrassing, right?
We're just wondering
at what point is he going to
consider changing his nickname?
Good evening, Nathan. Bill.
Good evening.
Mrs. Kovalenko, Toby.
I'm glad you're both here, as well.
Is there any news?
Good news.
We just received information
all but confirming that
the wildfire was not caused
by the boys campfire.
So this means
Toby, Cooper,
you're no longer under investigation.
So it's over.
It's over.
Praise be!
- Yes!
- [CELEBRATING]
So after telling LJ he
was funny for asking,
he just started sputtering.
If he was an airplane, he would
have fallen out of the sky.
Oh, my. Well, LJ did
put him on the spot,
even if he didn't mean to.
Exactly. And poor Nathan,
he must have felt so uncomfortable
being asked in front of so many people.
Yes, that must be it.
What?
Do you think maybe what?
Well, I just can't help wondering
why he didn't just say yes.
Rosemary, there must
be plenty of reasons.
Mhm.
This is the part where
you agree and reassure me.
I'm sorry.
Don't ask me, I don't know.
I don't even know
what Lee's dreams mean.
What do Lee's dreams have
to do with any of this?
The point is,
I don't know what the
point is. What is the point?
Don't look at me. It's your point.
Dreams.
They could mean anything.
As could Nathan's sputtering.
Point taken.
But again, not very reassuring.
Elizabeth, I'm sure you
have nothing to worry about.
I say more lemon curd than sleep, huh?
At this point, that's
exactly what I need.
But you like it, right? My lemon curd?
Mhm.
Oh, no.
[CLINK]
[CONTEMPLATIVE MUSIC]
[KNOCKING]
Nathan. Hi.
Okay.
I'm sorry about last night.
I don't know what I
was thinking, and then
Christopher showed up, and
by the time that was over,
it was too late to come over here,
which is all I really wanted to do.
So I could explain to
you that LJ's question,
It's not like I've never
thought about it before, but,
you know, honestly, we've
never really talked about it.
Yes, I was hesitant and there
was many reasons for that.
One, of course, was I was sitting down
and everyone was staring at me.
But none of those reasons
were because of what I feel for you
or what I want with you,
or I dream of with you.
Here.
Feel my heartbeat.
Look into my eyes.
This is the only evidence you need.
This is the truth.
Can we just leave it there for now?
