Nathan Redding is in hot water

The singer recently got in an accident, crashing into his ex-girl friend's car

and rumors are that his marriage is down in the rocks as well

More on that when we come back and we'll also be giving away

tickets to Nathan's concert next month

Mary, hey, do me a favor

Did you hear about Nathan Redding? Yeah, the singer

Can you call his manager and see if you can schedule me a meeting

Whenever, I'll make myself available

Uh, just grabbing some breakfast Gotta swing by my house but I'll be right in

Alright Thanks

Fresh off a multi-platinum selling record, Nathan Redding is falling

from favor after he ran into his ex-girl friend's car this week

Eye-witness accounts are mixed but some say the wreck looked deliberate

I didn't ram into her

Well, why don't you tell me what really happened

It was an accident I was driving, I was on the phone, I didn't stop in time

No one was hurt, but the car I hit it belonged to my ex-girlfriend

She was driving

Yeah Police came, reports filed, insurance claimed

It's all settled there, but my publicist, who I fired now, said that me and my

ex were on great terms and see each other often

And you're married

Yeah, that's why I called you Mr Reed

James, please

I can help you

Our firm is the best for a reason, but I need to know how serious you are about fixing this

How serious I am?

Are you leaving anything out that can come back to haunt us both?

Kara, my ex, we didn't part on the best of terms

So she won't be helping the situation

My concert tour isn't selling well, people are believing what they're reading

But the worst part is it's hurting my marriage

My wife doesn't like being dragged through the mud

and she doesn't like me being dragged through the mud either

Take some time off, spend it with your wife

But the tour dates are public, tickets have been sold

Cancelling sends the wrong message

I didn't say cancel

Reschedule five or so concerts, take some quality time away from the spotlight

Yeah, that's kind of a big deal

We'll release an appropriate statement about the change,

make no mention of the ex and move on

Why no mention?

You don't bring the garbage back in the house

Okay

Okay?

You're surprised?

Yeah, I'm used to stubborn resistance

You know, when it comes to the ones you love, you make certain sacrifices, no matter the cost

When do we make the announcement?

Hello, Mary

Good morning, James

James You got Nathan Redding on board?

Yes sir

Keep it up

Will do

That will get you a hefty bonus Want to blow it all by taking me out?

Maybe later

Tight wad

Oh, come on What?

My lunch is missing, again

It could be any one of them

You have to let this go

Randall, maybe?

Why don't we go out for lunch?

Or Mary

There's this place I love, it's around the corner, and it's like

Look at Carol

This is ridiculous I had something good today too

What, like Chinese take out?

That never gets stolen Steak cutlets

Wow, they are paying you too much

I've earned every penny

And I haven't?

You are amazing

That's more like it

Come on, let's go

I can't, I've got a meeting in ten minutes

Alright, well, I have an Asian salad left over from yesterday

Oh

No thanks

Hey, yeah I'm almost ready

We have reservations, we're gonna be fine Are you ready? Alright, alright

See you soon

come on

So he gets into this fight in public

I saw the photos

Yeah, and he's thinking we should make it look like it's the other guy's fault

You are the spin doctor

True, but come on, you'd think he'd be a man and own up to up

Is that what you're gonna have him do?

No, I'll spin it I have a really good plan, actually

Killer instincts

If only you had a little more

It's good that I don't

That's what makes us a good pair

Do you ever think about the future

You mean space ships and hovercrafts, or us?

More about career

Um, yeah

And?

Well, I'm due for a promotion soon

Is that what you want?

I don't know For now, yeah Sure

Don't you love this?

Cleaning up people's messes?

It's thrilling

Not exactly

You meet a lot of people, and powerful people

It doesn't really do it for me

You know why I like it?

Why?

I like seeing them squirm

Squirm?

With all their money and fame they need me to exert some influence

You are amazing

And don't you forget it

You're gonna take my sandwich? I'll teach you

Let's see if you enjoy this one

A little Tabasco sauce

Help that go down a little bit better

A little more

Wasabi

Perfect

I'll teach you to take my sandwich

Oh, yeah, you're gonna like that

A little pepper

Yeah, why not? Cayenne

You're gonna like that

Alright

Hello? I know, I know, it's not fair

It's the law of public relations

In a perfect world you get community service, but when everybody knows about it

there's other consequences

Look, I'm working on the release right now

I'll send it over to your team before I contact anyone else Okay

Did it happen again?

Yep

Anything?

Not yet

This isn't low fat

Where's Carol?

You're kidding

What did you put on it?

A little of everything

James

Hang on

Your mom called

She called you?

She left a message, she said she's been trying to get a hold of you

Some family emergency at home

I guess she just started trying random extensions

Thanks

You're welcome

She said the doctors kicked him out the door since the stroke was only mild

Your mom made sound like I was at death's door

You can't take a stroke lightly

I'll be fine

Just gotta get back on my feet Can you give me a hand with this please?

Uh So, how serious was it, really?

I was just doing some chores

I fell down some how and then I uh, had trouble getting back up

Mom said you blacked out, an ambulance came

Well, how would I know then?

How long are you back?

Just a week I've got a lot going on at work, so I need to

No, it's great I'm glad you could come

Everything okay here?

Yeah, good enough Where is that remote?

Shouldn't you rest?

A man can only sleep so much

Drive here from California? No wonder it took you so long

It's a rental and I flew I got here as soon as I could

Staying long?

No

It figures

There's a leak in Room 5 Make yourself useful

Good to see you too, Tom

Dinner's almost ready Jimmy

Do they even feed you on the plane anymore?

Go eat

Paige called She said she had something come up and had to leave early

Oh? Is she alright?

I don't know I'm just passing on the message

Oh, does Paige still work here?

Uhh huh

You said come talk

We have to figure out what to do

About?

What do you think?

The bed and breakfast

Great

Recovering from a stroke could take months

Dad seems fine to me

Seriously, you see only what you want to

You'll get back to your life soon Don't worry

Tom, hush The truth is, he's lost control of his right leg

and his arms aren't as strong either Frankly, he needs to take it easy

So how's the bed and breakfast doing?

Short handed

Well let's hire someone

Can't afford to

We have one extra person besides the family and with your dad down for the count

we can't handle the load ourselves We could use your help

I have a job

Here we go

I know, and I wouldn't ask if we could make it ourselves

I can't I'm in the middle of handling a crisis right now, and I'm up for a job promotion

I can't just

It's only until Dad's better

We can make it work without him mom

Not really

Weren't you trying to guilt me into staying?

No one's guilting anyone

Your Dad just has a lot of physical therapy and I'll be making trips to the hospital with him

So we're down two people

One and a half, and I'll still do what I can when I'm here

Well, I'll help while I can, but I have to go back

Surprise, surprise

Aren't you glad?

I'll think of something before I go

Kate, hey, can you hear me?

Kate, hey?

Oh, I miss California

Jimmy?

Tell him to stop sleeping in

Is Dad still asleep?

Yeah Mom wants us in the main kitchen

Okay, I'll be right there

Okay

How many guest do you have today?

Thirteen

What do you want me to do?

I call the grounds

That leaves maintenance for you Room 5 has a leak in the bathroom

They check out today so you can fix that later

Help cover the front desk and take care of guest's bags

What about Dad?

He's got physical therapy today Tom, will you look in on him while we're inside

Yeah, Mom

We don't have any guest activities booked for today but if something comes up I'll let you know

Lindsay, run take this up to Dad Be quiet in case he's still sleeping

Okay

Jimmy keep stirring

Good morning, front desk

You drink straight out of that I'll shove the whole thing down your throat

I know the do's and don'ts

Doesn't mean you follow them

Early check out Jimmy, Room 2 needs help with bags

Bell boy on his way

I know, he completely ruined my flower beds

I had to call my landscaper to come back and fix it

But the same thing happened to Tina across the street

Well, I spoke to his boss, but he didn't do anything about it Yeah

Thank you, my husband's pulling the car around

What? I know, and David was so upset

Tom, will you give me a hand?

I can't get the luggage dirty

You could take off the gloves

Jimmy, Lindsay's leaving for school

Come help over here?

Have fun

See you

What's that?

Treats for throughout the day I'll bake the first batch and Paige will take care of the rest later

You might want to leave that on a touch longer, Jimmy

James

What?

I go by James now

Since when?

Since I left

Hello?

Hi there

I'm so sorry, are you okay?

That's okay

Yeah, yeah Wow, you've changed

You look good Not that you didn't before

Thanks, it's good to see you too

So it's been a few years, huh?

Yeah, wow, I didn't think you'd still be here

Oh, why not?

I don't know - moved on to bigger and better things

No, I wanted to stay

So how you been?

Keeping busy, you know

Oh, uh, your mom, she's leaving and wants you to cover the front desk

Okay

And I can clean up in here when you're done

Alright, thanks

Hello? Reed Mill Bed & Breakfast, how may I help you?

Hi, I need to cancel my reservation

I'm sorry to hear that, and your name?

Sanches, for the 23rd

Okay, it looks like you have eight rooms, is this a change to one room or

No, all of them

Okay, thanks for letting us know

Hey

Hi, last name Grant, checking in

Great I don't have service here

You wanted a get away, you got it What's with the mill?

It's an old flour mill, converted to a bed and breakfast about thirty years ago

Interesting

Yeah, there's still flour that falls from the attic We can't seem to get rid of it

What's there to do around here?

Well, town's just down the road and here at Reed Mill we have fishing, canoeing on the pond,

horse back riding, and we have a game room downstairs with a movie library to choose from

Breakfast is at 9

How about fishing tomorrow?

Fishing?

Sure

Great, what time would you like?

10

Uh, we've got baggage outside

Great, I'll bring it right up

You're in room 9 It's got a great view

Good afternoon

Hi, can I help you?

Yes, I heard about Mr Reed Is he alright?

Better, thank you

Oh, that's so good to hear

I'm friends with Barbara and Henry, I was so worried

Alright, oh, thank you

I wrote them a little note

I'll make sure they get it

I thought I knew everyone here

I'm sorry, James, the older son

Well, it's a pleasure to meet you

Likewise

See you soon

Alright

Want a cookie?

Those are for the guests

Don't tell Mom, or Jimmy for that matter

Is he staying?

Long term, no

Huh, that's too bad

You need any help out here

Reed Mill Bed & Breakfast how can I help you?

James, oh sure, one moment

Jimmy, phone

He's only been here two days and already people calling him

Thanks

Hello? Hey, Kate, how are you?

Um, did you fall off the planet?

Practically, my cell phone barely works out here

How's home?

Same How's work

The same Mary's lunch went missing today

Wow

Yeah, don't you miss it?

Yeah, not that part, but yeah

Nathan Redding called, he said so far so good on the tour changes

Oh great, great I'll follow up with him later

Miss me yet?

You have no idea

Good I bought some tickets to a Lakers game

Really?

Yeah, thought I'd keep you motivated to come home

Trust me, I'm motivated

Good, call me later, okay?

I will

Thanks

What do you think, girlfriend?

None of our business

So, James, are you dating anyone?

Yeah, her name's Kate

What does she do?

She's another publicist at work

Are you two serious?

Sort of

That's a no

And how are you doing with the ladies, Tom

Stop it you two

So did you find a way to fix all our problems yet Superman?

So, I'm taking your father to the doctor tomorrow

How'd he do today?

Okay He's in good spirits

So what'd the doc say brought on the stroke?

Isn't he a little young to have one?

He pushes it sometimes

There are other factors: genetics, stress

Stress? Working too hard, too much

There's a lot to do, Tom

Oh, I know Tom

If you've got something to say just come out and say it

You dumped the work on Dad and you left

Stop it, Tom

So it's my fault, is that it?

Yep

Never mind the years I spent growing up here busting my tail off

Or never mind the fact that I should be able to create my own life, is that right?

You always put yourself first

No, I don't, and you of all people should appreciate that

Would you two cut it out?

Thanks for dinner, Mom

Ow

Found some dessert

Hey, should you be up?

I've got to get this body working again somehow, and it's not gonna happen napping all day

There in the pouch

Is this okay for you?

I had a stroke, Jimmy I'm still suppose to eat

So what's all the shouting about?

Nothing

I'm tired of being the prodigal son all the time

You know, I left Big deal

There's nothing wrong or vengeful about it

Oh, I know

I've worked hard, I've got things to show for it

I got a great job, a nice apartment, girlfriend

I don't want to give it up

Nobody's asking you to

You sure, because I'm pretty happy out there

But not here?

Can you blame me?

Nope You drive your brother crazy, Jimmy

What?

You know it's not your fault You're successful

You can do anything and when you do it you do it all the way and I wouldn't change you,

but maybe he sees it as twisting the knife a bit

He has wounds and he holds onto them

Just give him a chance to let it go

It's easier to let him wallow in self pity

For you maybe We got to live with the guy

You know, I used to look at people in wheelchairs and wonder how

they could not go stir crazy not being able to walk under their own power

One little stroke and I'm not too far from that

It changes your perspective

Hopefully, you'll never have to walk in someone else's shoes quite so literally

Henry, there you are

What are you doing out of bed?

What am I doing out of bed?

What are you doing out of bed?

Fine

Oh these were addressed to us

Oh, yes, some woman dropped them by, Christina something

She said she knew you

Yeah, she does She's a competitor

Don't worry about her

Let's go

Yeah

Really?

Sorry

Check the fridge

Typical

You sure there's not any more

Does it look like there's any more?

Mom's got more in the main kitchen

Sorry

Don't worry about it

You finish eating already?

Yeah

You always were a speed eater

I have two older brothers

Eat quickly Or not at all

Still hungry I guess

So you're not going to leave because of Tom, are you?

I mean I understand why you left before, but don't go just because he's being a jerk

It's not just 'cause of Tom I have to leave anyway

That's alright, I guess

Just remember he doesn't speak for the rest of us

Thanks

Well, we hope to see you another time, then

Okay Bye, bye

What was that?

Cancellation

Yeah, I had one of those yesterday too

It happens I see you booked guests for a fishing session

Yeah

Good

So, what's the deal with Christina Riley?

She keeps offering to buy the place

Are you considering it?

Not really, and at her prices definitely not

But since the stroke she smells blood in the water

Well, maybe it's not such a bad idea

This is all we have, Jimmy

We'd barely break even on the loans with what she's offering, and then what?

Good morning Mrs Grant

Let's get this thing over with

Should we wait for Mr Grant?

Mr Grant has business in town Some get away

Oh boy

Okay, Mrs Grant Come stand by me

I have no interest in fishing

Come on, it's fun

This was suppose to be a romantic get away

That is until my husband decided to squeeze in a few meetings while we're here

So this whole fishing stuff is just a lame attempt to try to keep me happy

with quality time even though he's not here

Well, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy yourself

Yeah, I'm not fishing You do it,

I'll take it back with me like it's mine

Well, actually, this is a catch and release only area

Fine then You catch the fish, we'll take a picture of me with it and call it good

Okay

I know I'm late, I'm so sorry

Perfect timing Henry has physical therapy

Everything okay?

Yeah, my car wouldn't start

Well, can I help?

Can you cover the front desk, I have to clean the rooms

Yeah

Can you help me with your father first?

Yeah

Need a hand?

New fingers maybe

Well, Mom's getting the car ready

I got it

Looking good Dad

Uhh, who cares? It's just therapy

How's your day going?

Good I caught a fish for a guest who's most likely

maxing out her husband's credit card right now to get back at him

Hey

Hey

Need a hand?

No, I'm good, thanks, but could you, uh, give me a ride home?

Yeah, sure

Thank you so much

Yeah

Hello?

What do you want now, Ms Riley?

Oh, it's Christina

Please, call me Christina

I'm just following up on my offer Have your parents thought it over?

They're a little pre-occupied with my father's health right now

Yes, I understand That's why this offer's so important

Well important to you maybe

I'm just trying to help them

Come here, look it, look, at my view

My vision of this property Here's the Mill now And this is my vision

See, all the land in the back of the property we make into more guest rooms

And in the middle we put this beautiful courtyard and pool

It's still rustic, but it's what guests are looking for

Just think how beautiful this could be

It's fine as it is

And your offering much less than the property's worth is

not going to convince my parents otherwise

It's a decent offer

You know, I could just wait till all your customers go

elsewhere and buy it at a bargain from the bank

The Mill's customers are loyal

Yeah, sure they are

Tom

Tom, I figured it out

What?

The people that were cancelling on us

What?

They're cancelling for a reason

I'm working here

Christina Riley is luring them away

Whatever

I'm serious, man, she's playing hard ball

I get it, okay, you want to be the hero again

Here comes Jimmy to save the day

Tom

Fine, don't listen

How can I?

Hey

Hey, want to help?

Sure

You know, you don't have to feed them, they can make it on their own

I know, I just like to do it

So, do you ever hear from Anna?

No, I don't

Do you miss her?

No I guess Not anymore

Does Tom?

Sometimes, but he acts like it doesn't bother him He just gets angry

Yeah

Hey, do you need a ride home?

Oh, no thanks James is gonna take me

So, why did you stick around here?

It's home

Yeah, but didn't you want more?

Yes, and I still do It gives me something to work towards

I hear you've got it made in California

I've done alright for myself

Making people seem better than they are?

Well, sometimes helping good people out of bad situations

Yeah, that's a better way to think of it

Oh, turn here

You still live here

Yeah, like I said, it's home

Do you want me to take a look at your car?

No, that's okay, thanks

My Mom said that she would take care of it, so hopefully it's, you know, working

What, did you get in a fender bender?

Thanks for the ride, I'll see you tomorrow

Yeah, sure

Hey, are you okay?

Mom, are you okay?

What happened to the car?

Tree in the wrong spot

Were you hurt?

I'm fine

Was anyone hurt?

Just me and the tree

Mom, why didn't you call me? When did this happen?

On the way home from the repair shop The engine works now

Christina Riley's pushing everyone to go to her resort

There's nothing wrong with that

Well, she's going after our usual customers

What are we suppose to do about that, Jimmy?

I don't know, but if she keeps it up, how much longer can we last?

I mean forget the work load, we're not gonna have any guests

Lower your voice Good morning

Have a seat Hot waffles coming up in a minute

Thank you

Help yourself to juice, tea, milk, whatever you'd like

The Bilson Company normally comes out every year for their retreat

Normally?

Yeah, I got a message from them They've cancelled

It's her again

We'll be alright

How?

I don't know but we can't think about it right now

I need you to run to town to do the shopping There's a list by the fridge

Here we go Checking out today?

Yes

Well, I hope yo've enjoyed your stay

Thank you

Hey

James, checking up on me?

Well, I want to make sure you're still working hard

Yeah, I'm working so hard I'm stealing all your clients

In fact, they're so impressed with me that they'll never go back to you

Well, I guess you'll have to start spending all your money on me then

How's population 600?

Well, more like 10,000 but that's including the horses

You must be going so stir crazy

Nah, there's too much to do Just wanted to call and say hi

Hey, listen, I gotta go Can I call you later?

Okay

Doing the shopping now?

Just helping out

Do you need a hand?

No thanks

Just trying to be neighborly

Is that what you call it when you're targeting Reed Mill customers?

That's just business, James

That's healthy competition Think about this logically

Do you really want to keep crawling down a dead end?

This is not good for your family and they cannot afford it

We'll see

Alright

Hey

Hey

Thanks for the ride yesterday

Yeah, no problem

How's the car running?

Running

Good

I'm making cinnamon rolls Come try one later?

Yeah, that'd be great, thanks

Just can't help yourself, can you?

What?

With Paige Chasing after her even though you've got a girlfriend

I'm not chasing after Paige

Then leave her alone

Why? Because you like her? Then do something about it

That didn't work too well last time You'd already gotten in the way

What do you want, Tom?

I want you gone Out of here, before you ruin my life again

Before I ruin your

Fine Consider me gone

Do you have anything leaving tonight? And how long's the layover? The morning flight then

Yes, please You have the credit card?

That wheel acting up again?

Yeah, it just needs to be balanced

I heard you're leaving

Lindsay

I assume this has something to do with Tom?

Just time to go

We need you

Mom doesn't seem to worried about it, with Christina Riley stealing all the guests

Burying her head in the sand

She's plenty worried, believe me She's just got a lot on her plate right now

Hey, what would you do?

Doesn't matter It doesn't affect me

Because you're leaving again

You know, I left for Tom's sake last time

Even though I loved Anna, I left

And this is the thanks I get He blames me for stealing her,

for moving away, for coming back

Yeah

Just because Anna ended up moving away doesn't mean that I stole her

I haven't talked to her since I left

Anna loved you, you know, not Tom

It doesn't matter to him

But it matters to you

I let it go I've got my life to get back to

Hey, do something for me, will ya?

Don't let his hard feelings affect you

Love him, even if he makes it difficult

You know the whole brotherly love thing works better from afar

Henry Dad

Mom is he breathing? Lindsay, go call 911, hurry

There's no pulse, Mom

Come on, Dad He's not breathing

Stay with us, Dad, come on

Henry, please

We'll be in the car

Sorry for your loss

He was a good man

I didn't think you actually knew him

Well, not well, but maybe in time

If we had talked about Reed Mill and all

Do you really think now is the time for this?

What better time?

You have some big decisions to make and this is one of them

Yeah

You don't really want to stay here and run a bed and breakfast, do you?

That's my business

But you need a life

I have a life

And you want to get back to it, don't you?

You have to do what's right for your family

It may be a hard pill to swallow, but it's the right thing

Want some juice, Mom?

No, thank you

What are you doing?

Trying to see who we can afford to hire

Found anyone yet?

I don't even know how we're going to pay them

Do we need anyone else?

Jimmy has to go back soon

Business is slow right now anyway I think we can handle it

But we need more business just to make ends meet

It'll pick up

Not with Christina undercutting our rates

What do you care?

Mom, maybe it makes sense to take her offer seriously

Don't listen to him, Mom

We're not selling, Jimmy

Well, how do you expect to do it without Dad?

I mean the offer's not great, but

Jimmy, we're under water on the loans

Is it really that bad?

Well, isn't Riley's offer enough to

It's not

And it doesn't matter This is our home

Alright, how bad is it really?

You're not even turning a profit

You asked

Mom, how do you expect to turn things around if you can't

I can't stay much longer

I know

James, there's a phone call for you

I knew we couldn't count on him

This is James

Sorry to hear about your father How are you holding up?

I'm okay

Good I talked with Nathan Redding today

Things have calmed down and he sends his thanks

I'm glad to hear it

Look, I don't want to rush you, but when can we expect you back?

I'm trying to figure that out right now

I have something better in mind for you here

Yeah?

Something more along the strategic side I think you'll like it

Okay Thanks

We'll talk over the particulars when you get back

Sounds good

You're smiling

Yeah

That doesn't happen that much

My boss It looks like I'm getting a promotion

Congratulations

Thank you

That's great

Reed Mill Bed & Breakfast, how may I help you?

Yeah It's for you

Hello?

Okay

No, I'm sorry I'm okay

Yeah, I'll be right there

What's wrong?

I gotta go

Paige

Paige

Give me a break

I can take you wherever you need to go

No, it's okay

Please Come on

Thank you for calling

Mom? Hmm

Time to go home I am home

No you're not You know where you are?

Home

I can handle this

It's okay I don't mind helping

You might when she throws up in your rental car

Should we get her something to eat?

Um, not such a good idea

How about you?

Thanks for dinner

My pleasure

You didn't have to do this

Actually I did I was starving

Not just the food You didn't have to come out here

I'm glad I did

So your car, the fender bender--

Yeah

That's why you stayed Your mom?

I had to

What about rehab or something?

Can't afford it Not sure she'd go anyway

I'm sorry, I don't mean to interfere

You know, parents are suppose to take care of their children, not so much the other way around

I had no idea that you were

That's okay, I don't like to broadcast it

My Mom does that enough

How are things between you two?

Um, she's not sober much

You, uh, ever regret it?

It, uh, gets lonely sometimes

Your family helps They give me hope

Really?

Yeah, that not all families are like mine

No, sometimes they're worse

Someday you'll think differently

Morning

Morning

Going to school soon?

After morning chores

Do you ever get tired of them, the chores?

Not really

I did

I like meeting the different people And if we move, I'll miss that

You'll meet new people anywhere you go

I know I just like it here, though

That's because you've never been anywhere else

Exactly

I guess I'm just scared

Hey

Hey

I wanted to thank you again for everything

It was really nice not to have to do it alone for a change

You're welcome

What are you doing out here?

Just, reminiscing

I don't remember what time of year it was, spring, summer, whatever,

but the fish actually would try to swim up this waterfall

Really?

We used to stand over there and would try to catch them

Did you actually ever get one?

No, but to this day Tom still swears that he caught one, but I don't buy it

You gonna miss it?

Dad once asked me what I would do with the Mill if I were in his shoes

Sell it?

No, not anymore It means too much to the family

But you can't expect to keep it without making a few changes

Like what?

Well, even if we sell 75% of the rooms year round we'd still barely be breaking even

with all the cost of maintenance and food and wages

Yeah, we can't charge anymore than we already are,

especially with Christina undercutting our rates all day long

No, we can't, but we need to start bringing more people in

Are you suggesting we build more rooms?

With what money?

I'm suggesting we start putting this place on the map

Advertising?

More than that I'm talking events Public and private

Weddings?

Yes, uh, company parties, anniversary parties, proms

Where would we host all this?

We're sitting on 50 acres of land If the weather's good, we can find a spot

You know, Vicky Pearson's daughter just got engaged

Call her

Is this really enough to make a difference?

What about a concert?

Okay

Jump start things around here, get the community involved

Please tell me you're not singing

We'll let the surround towns know about it, and start selling tickets as soon as we can

If it works out, we do it every year

Can we afford to bring in a singer?

One who will help sell enough tickets?

I can cover the expenses with some savings that I have, but for a singer with

mass appeal, maybe I'll call in a favor

Nathan James Reed here Good, good Well, I'm glad it's working out

Hey, I know we haven't known each other very long,

but I have a huge favor to ask of you

Did you all have a restful night?

Yeah, it's really quite and pretty here

Thank you Oh, just so you know, we do host special events,

so if you have anything coming up, think about us

Bridal shower Yeah

The entire place used to be an old flour mill but it was beautifully renovated

We've got ponds, the water wheel, waterfalls

We also have tents and chairs

that we can set up in addition to any decor that you've got

Hello, this is Kate

Hey, I need a favor

Oh, you mean in addition to me covering your work load?

Yeah

What?

Contacts in Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, newspapers, TV, radios, bloggers, the works

Why, what are you working on?

A little side project

Okay, and when are you coming home?

Not sure

You're not sure?

No, I'm not

Okay, first it's, oh, maybe it's just a week, and then it's a couple more days,

and then it's more days, and then you're not sure, so what am I

Kate, my Dad's gone My family needs me

For how long? Dawson's not gonna wait forever

I know

And neither will I

I've got a lot on my mind I don't need this right now

Is that my answer?

That's not what I meant

Sure you didn't

What do you want from me, Kate

Well, I know what I don't want I don't want to waste my time with

someone who has no idea how good he's got it

Then don't Just send me the list

Fine

This is the perfect room for the brides

For the bouquet?

Sure

Hey, why do wedding dresses have to be white?

I don't know, tradition?

Well, I'd want lilac

Lilac?

Why not?

Is my little sister getting married?

You're closer to that than I am

Not really

What about Kate?

Doesn't distance make the heart grow fonder?

Well, sometimes it just clears you head a little

What's that?

Uh, I just gotta hang these up around town

You guys wanna help?

Sure

Get me the number for Patrick at the bank

Need some help?

Sure, thanks

Sure

So, how are ya?

Good enough, thanks

Really, or are you just saying that?

At this very moment, things are perfect

Perfect, huh? Folding laundry?

I like helping you

Tom Mom needs us

Yeah Coming

What?

The bank's given me a deadline

What deadline?

Your father talked to them a while ago about reducing our payments, a temporary help

But they're taking that away and calling in the difference

Can they do that?

Yeah, but why now?

Someone called them, a buyer

Christina Riley

They said that if we don't get back on track they'll have to sell Reed Mill to recoup their money

Whatever They just don't want to miss out on her offer

We have less than two weeks to make up our payments

That's just before the concert

How do we stop this?

We don't have enough events booked, and they're not enough money

So we move up the concert

No, we can't do that, we've already announced the dates and we can't do that to Nathan

The great James can't make a phone call?

Boys

Without this concert we're finished

You don't think I know that?

I don't know

I'll come up with something

You gonna run away again?

Get off my back, Tom

I figured you'd run

Somehow everyone still thinks you're the hero

I'm not trying to be a hero

I wasn't trying to be one then, I'm not trying to be one now

Because you're a coward, that's why you left before

I left so you could have your way I don't know why you can't see that

Don't try to spin this like you do everything else Mr PR man

You always try to make yourself out to be a martyr every time

All you do is think about yourself

Get over it

I can't You're always first You beat me to Anna,

you beat me out of this place

What are you talking about?

You think I want to stay here?

You don't?

No Maybe I want a chance to make something of myself too,

to make my own life, and not live under the same roof as my parents

I don't know I don't even know if

I just wanted the choice, Jimmy, the choice

Then make it

Your Mom filled me in

A little warning next time?

You need any help?

I think I've just about got it

Were those your soaking wet clothes I found in the dryer?

Yeah

Maybe next time you and your brother decide to fall in the pond,

you could squeeze out that excess water for me?

Sorry

And you could try swimming instead of fighting

Saw us did you?

I used to, you know?

Fight?

Swim, in the pond It was the highlight of summer

We used to come out here after we finished out chores

We?

Me, Tom, and Lindsay when she knew how to swim

Hmmm

What?

You do like it here, don't you?

For all your talk about going home, this is home

It's where I grew up

I have some good memories here, and some bad ones, that's all

Uhh

Mom? Are you okay?

Um, yeah

I was just I should box this stuff up

No, you don't have to

We could use the space, but

Mom, maybe it's too soon

The day before he died we talked about selling the Mill

I thought

Since we'd all be together, we decided we could start over

It'd be hard, but we'd try

But without him, if we left

I don't want to lose him

We won't lose him

Put things back where you got them

We have to call the bank

And tell them what?

Whatever we have to to get them to move the deadline back after the concert

They're not gonna listen to us over Christina Riley

How do you know that?

You think they would?

There has to be someone there, someone that knows us

We've lived in this town for as long as I can remember That's gotta count for something

There is Ben Roswell

Who?

Ben Roswell, I went to school with him

Talk to him

We haven't stayed in touch over the years, but when we see each other in town we say hi

Talk to him, Tom

He may not be able to do anything, or want to

You have to try You can do this

Okay

Alright

Is he back?

Not yet

I told everyone at school about the concert

Let's hope they all come

They're way excited No one can believe that I know Nathan Redding

You don't

But my brother does, so that counts

Got us an extra week

You punk Nice job

Reed Mill, how can I help you?

Yep, yeah, the concert's here Saturday Great

How many tickets can I get you?

Looks good

Thanks, Jimmy Is this what he's used to?

No, but I told him it was a more country fair style concert

Jimmy, he's here

Let's go

Nathan

James

Good to see you

Good to see you

This is my brother Tom

Tom, nice to meet you

Thanks so much for coming out

It's a great idea I don't always hit this part of the country on my tours

and you should see the blogs about it being a benefit concert

Yeah?

Eating it up Part of your plan, I bet

Well, I figured it wouldn't hurt, but really, you are just helping me out

No problem

Come on, I'll show you your room

I really do appreciate you doing this

No problem

Are you ready for this?

You bet

Thank you

Thank you guys, thank you for coming to Reed Mill

And a big thank you to Nathan Redding

I'm excited to hear him play tonight,

so please join me in welcoming Nathan

Hello, hello, thank you It's so great to be here

I've got a little something for all you here tonight

What happened?

I don't know

You've got to be kidding me

I'll handle this

Go

Sorry, man, we're working on it

This reminds me of when I first started singing

Me on stage, sometimes not even a stage

Back then, most people didn't care if I sang or not

I got tips sometimes to stop singing

But you keep going, you know, something every performer learns

So let's just use this and take it down a little, shall we?

Don't electrocute yourself

It's not that kind of wire

How can I help you?

I got this

Okay

Yeah?

You did it

Yeah

Hero

You think it's enough?

Listen to the crowd It sounds like it

I've been thinking about what you said

About wanting to be on your own

Listen, I was angry, and

You meant it

I think if we get things running smoothly around here, you should do what you want

You serious?

Well, give it a few months, but yeah

Okay

Thank you so much Thank you, thank you

What are you doing here?

Well, don't hold your breath for a congratulations

From you? I wouldn't dream of it

You know this won't last

Reed Mill will just go back to the way it was after you leave

I guess I better stay then

I wouldn't want my family's home to fall into someone else's hands

You're making such a big mistake

Actually, I'm doing exactly what you said

Do what's right for your family even if it's hard to swallow? Isn't that it?

Maybe not quite what you wanted, but I guess you can't always have it your way

Alright, this is your last chance I will raise my offer by 5%

Consider all of your offers rejected We're keeping Reed Mill

Now, if you don't mind, these are for the guests

He is really good

Yeah

Have you seen my Mom?

Yeah, she's, uh, in the kitchen tallying up ticket sales

Not a moment wasted

No

From the crowd's attendance and the look on her face, I think you did it The Mill's safe

For now But there's always gonna be something

And then what?

We'll deal with it as it comes

We?

All of us, assuming you'll stick around

I always have

I know

It's what made me realize that I need to be better

Watching you, it changed me

I want to be here now, not because I have to, but-

Because you care

Yeah
