I haven't seen you since the Final Four.

You still owe me a dinner.

- Never bet against Kentucky.
- You betcha.

- Annie!
- Janice!

I thought you landed this morning. Hey!

We got stuck on the runway
in Rome for four hours,

- thanks to downpour.
- Huh.

Well, in good rain, good rain.

What?

Oh, something my grandpa
used to say back on the farm.

Anyway, I want to
trade you a weather delay

for non-stop turbulence,
a wonky wheel on my drink cart,

and a parakeet, a parakeet that got loose

and took the entire flight
to get back in its carrier.

I once had an emotional support ferret

get loose and wreak havoc.

The airline changed the policy after that.

Oh, what we put up
with to see the world.

Right? I am so ready for a weekend off.

Got any fun plans?

Oh, Stuart and I are spending
a romantic weekend together.

And he said he's taking me
to a special dinner tonight.

A very special dinner.

You've been dating
almost seven months.

Do you think it's...

I don't know. I don't know.

We've never even talked about it.

He's such a live-in-the-moment

kind of guy, but lately, I don't know.

Oh.

Uh, it's Bob.

He wants to see me in
the conference room ASAP.

Think it's about the merger?

It's been all over the news.

To be honest, I'm a little worried.

Me too.

You'll be fine. You speak fluent Italian.

In bocca al Lupo.

Into the wolf's mouth.

It means good luck.

Ah.

Thanks.

Well, it's done.

Hudson Airlines brought us out.

Effective immediately, I'm afraid.

They wanted a neat, clean cut.

So, what does that mean for me?

I tried my best, but we only managed

to save a few attendants
who speak two languages.

Janice.

Good. I'm happy for her.

I'm really sorry, Annie.

I know you were with us ten years.

You're one of the best
flight attendants we have.

Look, there's a good
chance we can hire you back.

Yeah? When... When would that be?

Three months, six tops.

After all of this settles down.

Take time to enjoy life for a few months.

I'll call as soon as I can get you back.

Thank you. Um...

Hey.

Yeah, I understand.

We can discuss it further this weekend.

Thanks so much, Jeff.

Jay, I am so happy to see you.

So, how's the conference going?

Well, it's been a lot of work.

Well, you're the director of sales

for your dad's largest hotel.

That is a lot of responsibility.

I just love it so much, though.

It's like putting on
a big show every weekend.

But I'm afraid I'm
going to have to postpone

my visit to Kentucky again.

I have meetings all weekend.

It's all right. I understand.

But listen, I'm glad that you're here,

because I want to talk
to you about this in person.

My dad just secured an option to buy into

another large hotel here in Cincinnati.

And he wants you to manage it.

Camille.

This is an opportunity of a lifetime.

I appreciate the offer. I really do.

But with all the time
and energy that would take,

you know my plan.

Can't you save the farming for
when you're ready to slow down?

Think, if you took this job, we could work

side by side every day.

Well, I thought you were
excited about working

side by side on the project in Kentucky.

I am. And I'm so committed
to the farm-to-table restaurant.

But this opportunity came up,
and you would be perfect.

At least think about it.

I'll think about it.

Look, I promise I'll get up
to the farm as soon as I can.

I'm so looking forward to the hay rides

and the cozy bonfires.

Give your parents my best.

I will. Hello.

- I will.
- Hey, Camille.

We're all ready to close on our end.

We're just waiting on approvals.

And then all that's left

are signatures on the final paperwork.

We agree this is
a mutually beneficial deal.

Jack, absolutely it is.

- Hey, I missed you.
- I'll just be a minute.

Oh.

Hey, man. No, no, no, no, no.

It's all good. It's all good.

No, I promise.

This is a really good deal.

This is not something we should let go.

Of course, of course.

All right. I'll see you soon.

Come in. Right.

Sorry about that.

This Jack Carney
connection could be huge.

He asked me to Miami
this weekend to play golf

and meet his friends.

They could be
worth even more than Jack.

This is my first
weekend off in two months.

I thought we were
going to spend it together.

But this could be
the biggest meeting of my life.

Yeah, no, I understand.

I know, I know. It's important.

That's why I love you.

You're so free and understanding.

I booked us a table at Angela's Trattoria.

And, um, this is for you.

I'm finding myself wanting
you with me all the time.

Annie, will you move in with me?

They are beautiful.

I'm sorry, I'm just a little overwhelmed.

I, uh, I lost my job today.

The merger.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

At least you won't have
to worry about paying rent.

You know, or sharing a small
apartment with rotating roommates.

I could take care of you until
you get back on your feet.

It's... it's a generous offer.

But I wasn't raised to
live with a man before marriage.

I mean, do you see
marriage in our future?

I told you when we first started dating.

I don't know if I ever want to get married.

I know, but I thought that's because
you hadn't met the right person.

Honestly, I'm just not sure.

Oh.

We should get going.

We're going to be
late for our reservation.

This isn't going to work for me.

I'm sorry, I... I can't do this.

Wait, what are you doing?

Hang on. Come on, Annie.

Don't... don't leave like this.

You're making a mistake.

Oh.

Hey, Beulah, you all right?

Oh, hey there, Jake.

You know, one year
I had a nine-pound sweet potato.

Nine pounds, that's amazing.

Next up, beets,
pumpkins, butternut squash.

Well, your summer
vegetables do always take

- first prize in the county fair.
- Well.

You know, my mom would
love to know your secret.

Maybe I ought to add
a nondisclosure clause

to our little agreement.

Won't say a word, I promise.

I really appreciate
you leasing out land to me.

I am all for your farming plans.

So no regrets about coming home yet?

None at all.

You know, the banking world

taught me a lot,
but this... this is my passion.

Proud of you, Jake.

Would you like a little sweet tea?

No, thank you.

Oh, uh, please take some.

Uh, yeah, well, don't mind if I do.

Thank you.

But you know, I also heard on the news

about the Rowan Air
merger and the layoffs.

Isn't that the airline that Annie works for?

Well, yes, it is.

You heard from her?

Oh, Annie doesn't
usually call until Sundays,

unless she's overseas.

No news is good news, right?

Yeah, I suppose so.

Just curious, is she familiar
with our arrangement?

What happens
on the farm is my business.

She doesn't get a say.

Yeah.

Thanks again.

I hope your aunt enjoys
her Blessings Basket.

Hey.

- Jake.
- Hey, Mom.

I thought that you were over
at Beulah's checking the fences.

Oh, I was. I just needed to

run out for some more supplies.

Beulah said she'll call you

about this week's Sunday dinner.

Oh, well, I know we can expect Woody.

He's always happy to have a good
home-cooked meal each week.

You weren't here, but he nearly
married a few years ago.

Really?

- Mm-hmm.
- Well, what happened?

She canceled at the last minute,

but then he scandalized the town

by going on his honeymoon anyway.

You can't force
someone to love you back.

For his sake,
I hope he went somewhere fun.

Well, every woman's dream,
fly fishing in the Everglades.

Yeah, that sounds like Woody, all right.

Oh. Sweetheart.

Do you mind putting those boxes

in the back for me, please?

Not at all.

Thank you.

If I haven't said it a million times already,

it is so good to have you back home.

It's good to be home, Mom.

Mm.

Eleven hours of driving so far.

Not too much longer, and I'll be home.

Why didn't you call Bob?

He would have gotten you a flight.

Eh, I wanted to drive.

Enjoy the scenery.

Give me time to think.

I'm sorry about Stuart.

I sure ignored a lot
of red flags along the way.

You could have stayed here.
Our couch is super comfy.

I appreciate that.

But you heard Bob.

Could be as long as six months,

and even that's not for sure.

No one else is hiring right now, so.

You know, I haven't
seen my grandma in a while.

I'm long overdue for a visit.

That's good that you're there, then.

Just enjoy your time with her.

Yeah.

Hold on right there!

- Grandma, it's me!
- Who?

Your granddaughter, Annie.

For heaven's sake, what are you doing

sneaking around like a thief in the night?

What are you thinking?
You scared me to death.

You scared me, too.

- Why didn't you call?
- I did.

In fact, I left
a message on your voicemail.

Well, I didn't get it.

I did hit some spotty reception
when I got out of the city.

I could have called sooner.

Come here.

If I'd known you were coming,

I would have aired out
the bed in your room.

We'd have stocked up on groceries.

It's fine, really.

Did you drive straight
through from New York City?

Yes.

You go straight to
your room and get some rest.

After church tomorrow, we'll visit,

and you will tell me what's going on.

Thanks, Grandma.

Good night.

Oh, and we have a rooster now.

Time to rise and shine!

Sunday School is in one hour.

Oh, good, you're awake.

No, no, I'm not.

It's the Lord's Day.

He deserves the first fruits.

So get moving.

I like to sit closer.

Morning.

Sorry.

Sorry.

Pastor Scott and his wife Mary Beth

are new to town by way of Colorado.

Good morning, my friends.

If you're new to our church,
or maybe you just

haven't been in a long time,
I'd like to warmly welcome you

and thank you for joining us for worship.

This is the day that the Lord has made.

Let us rejoice and be glad.

I'm so excited about

what the Lord is doing this season...

Jake?

Annie Mae.

Just Annie.

Saw you at church earlier.

I didn't see you.

Well, you did hightail it out of there

as soon as the service ended.

Oh, yeah, well, I told my
grandma I needed some fresh air.

What are you doing here?

Ah, just bringing
these chess pies for my mom.

No, I mean, are you here
for the weekend, or...

I thought you lived in Cincinnati.

I actually moved back a few months ago.

Wow. I had no idea.

Oh. My turn. What are you doing here?

I'm just visiting.

How long are you planning on staying?

Actually, a few months, at least.

I'm waiting for a call to get rehired

by the airline that bought mine out.

Sounds like you hit a bit of turbulence.

Yeah, I guess that's a good way to put it.

So, do you have any backup plans?

You know, in case they don't call?

Uh, I don't know. I

think maybe something in hospitality?

Thanks for the vote of confidence.

I should probably deliver these

before my mom calls a search party.

Yeah.

You coming?

Yeah.

This all looks delicious.

And you do this every week?

Every Sunday after church.

Evelyn and I started it

when she lost her husband
five years ago.

And I lost my friend two years ago.

Well, I'm sorry for you both.

- =Thank you.
- It can be a lonesome thing

for us widowed folks.

And now everybody
who finds themselves

alone on a Sunday is welcome.

It gives us something to look forward to.

We love being
around these young people.

As long as I'm able,
there's food on the table.

Look who I found out by the rock wall.

Oh, Annie!

Is this your daughter?

Annie is Beulah's granddaughter.

But I feel like I partially raised her.

She and Jake were together so much,

they were just like brother and sister.

Annie!

Happy to have you join us.

This is Pastor Scott.

I was wondering
whose car had New York plates.

Yeah, it's a rental. So nice to meet you.

- Lovely service today.
- Thank you.

And you remember Woody?

Yes, of course.

- Good to see you again.
- You too.

Wait 'til you try Evelyn's chess pie.

A blue ribbon winner at the county fair

three years in a row.

Beulah, I have the same recipe you do.

It's a secret ingredient.
And she won't tell us.

Well chess pie is my favorite,
so I cannot wait to try it.

It's my favorite, too.

I'm just so happy that we're all together.

Pastor, will you say grace for us?

Absolutely. Let's all join
hands and bow our heads.

Can't believe you do all this
cooking every week, Grandma.

I mean, have you thought about

maybe doing it just once a month?

Or... or a potluck,
so not all the burden's on you.

They look forward
to a home-cooked meal.

- It's a treat for them.
- Yeah.

It's a gift that Evelyn and I can give.

The arrangement suits us,
and we enjoy it.

Okay, well, if you're going
to do all this work every week,

have you thought
about getting a dishwasher?

- Save some time?
- Every other week?

And I never mind it.

I do some of my best thinking
when I'm washing dishes.

You didn't tell me
Jake moved back home.

Is it a problem?

Wha... It's just

we hadn't run into each other in a while,

and I was surprised.

The bank that he was working for
offered him a promotion.

He turned it down and moved home.

Why would he do that?

Jake wants to pursue other options.

You can hear the rest from him.

I better get going.

I'll bring you a mess of
turnip greens when I come by

- to fix the chicken coop.
- Thank you.

Can you do
something about the rooster?

Turn his volume down or something?

There's a volume dial under his waddles.

- I'll see what I can do.
- Great.

Thanks again for dinner.

We were delighted. Thank you.

- See you later.
- Jake.

I am off as well,
but I will be by in the morning

to check on the cattle
and mend the fences.

Sounds good. In fact, Annie here
will come help you out.

You know the rule.

Everyone on the farm pitches in.

Yep.

Okay. Ah... Great.

See you bright and early.

Yeah. Can't wait.

Why is he doing all that?

Because he has cows.

He's leasing the land
and he's repairing fences.

Okay. I know you didn't
tell me about that.

I didn't feel the need.

Your business is up in the air
and mine is on the ground.

This is my farm,

and I'll take care of it as I please.

Watered-down coffee.

Hm... What I wouldn't give

for an Italian cappuccino about now.

What?

Grandma?

- Hey, cowboy.
- Hey.

Well, you look great. As always.

- Thanks.
- A little grumpy, maybe.

- Too early for you?
- Come on.

I travel across multiple
time zones every week.

Sometimes multiple times a day.

So, can you just explain
something to me?

Why are you running cattle on our farm?

And I hope you have more
than two bulls in your herd?

Very funny. The cows are grazing
in the south pasture.

You left your job for this?

It's always been
a part of my long-term plan.

I saved up enough money

and now I can pursue
my real passion, farming.

You're really serious
about this, aren't you?

Yeah. I mean,
aside from managing the land,

farmers are doing a lot
of very innovative things

with their empty tobacco
barns nowadays by creating

lodging for people who want farm
stays, I mean, even restaurants.

It's a way to really
connect people to the land.

It does seem a waste to have
the barn sitting here empty,

but a house is plenty
for Grandma to manage.

In fact, I've been thinking it's

probably time for her to sell the farm

and just move to town and simplify...

Whoa, whoa, wait a minute.
What is she going to do?

The same thing she does now.

Garden and cook Sunday dinners
for the church crowd.

Even with you helping out,
everywhere you look,

something needs to be
repainted or repaired.

She does too much for her age.

Well, you know, the barn
isn't actually empty.

What do you mean?

Woody's a part-time horse trader.

He stables his horses
in the barn and in return

for doing work around the farm
for your Grandma.

Huh. Grandma didn't tell me that either.

Huh.

Want to give me a hand?

Well, let's see.

The Kentucky Mint Julep is popular.

- And so is the Kentucky Harvest.
- Hmm.

I want to get Annie something
that would make her feel

like she's back in one
of her fancy hotel rooms.

Oh.

Well, in that case...

I recommend
the Lavender Luxury Soap. Smell.

She is going to feel like
she's in a grand French hotel.

- Sold.
- Good.

So how is Annie?

Oh...

It makes sense for her
to come home for a spell,

what with no job, but why so sudden?

Feels a little desperate to me,

like she's running
from something or somebody.

I always thought flight attendants

must have such an exciting life.

Oh, I never like to spend
one night away from my bed.

How Annie flits
from one hotel to another,

I will never understand.

Is she still dating that
handsome Wall Street investor?

She didn't tell me
anything about anything.

Annie was always her grandpa's girl.

She confided everything in him.

If Fred were here,

he would know what to say and do.

Well, I'm sure that Annie
will share when she's ready.

Time will tell.

Any word from Bob?

He's doing everything he can
to get you back.

He's really pulling for you.

That's encouraging...

Being here reminds me of why I got out.

I forgot how quiet it is here.

Except for the rooster.

Oh!

My old colored pencils.

Well, that's right.
Didn't you used to draw?

Yeah, a little. Yeah.

What is this?

Lavender.

Oh, this reminds me of that little hotel

you and I stayed in France that one time.

I never got the Paris bid.

You always did.

Hey, do you know how many people
would love

to get a few months in the country?

Just think about all
the fresh air you're taking in.

Oh.

Hey, that's pretty.

Yeah. Jake gave it to me
for my 16th birthday.

And then he kissed me.

It was our first and only kiss.

But you guys never dated?

Nah. Somehow that's when things
started getting complicated.

Annie, where are you?

That's my grandma.

Okay, well this has been so productive.

Thank you so much
for keeping me company.

And please keep me posted about Bob.

- Absolutely.
- Thank you.

Looks like you've cleaned house.

Yeah, made a start at least.

I'll take these to the church
donation center later, and...

You know what, sit down and relax.

I'll make your coffee.

Thank you, dear.

Whoa.

All right. Here we go.

Is something wrong?

Nope.

I've always liked strong coffee.

It just seems like a waste
to go through the can too fast.

Well, I'll buy you some more.

Actually, I found
a specialty roaster online.

All coffee tastes like coffee to me.

I appreciate it, but you ought
to be saving your money.

Speaking of money,

you know

you really shouldn't keep
yours in the refrigerator.

You know,
you should keep it in the bank.

Well, that's one of my hiding places.

I'm not sure I remember
every place I've stashed it.

- Grandma...
- But if something happens to me,

you need to go through everything

before you sell it off.

But that right there
is I'm saving for repairs.

Well, it would be safer in the bank.

Have you thought about selling the farm

and getting a little place in town?

A one-story with a big lot and a garden.

It would just be easier to...

I plan to live here
as long as the Lord allows.

This farm has been in
our family for five generations

and I'm not giving it up.

I was born on this farm,
and I plan to die on this farm.

And I take my coffee black

with one sugar, if you've forgotten.

Right.

Sky is the Lord's canvas.

It's beautiful.

Grandma

there's more to me coming home
than just losing my job.

I figured there was more to the story.

Let's have it.

Stuart

asked me to move in with him.

Told me he didn't want
to get married ever,

at least not to me.

So I broke up with him.

And I could have stayed
with friends in New York.

I just... I just wanted to

get out a while and clear my head.

You dreaded telling me this?

Annie, you don't have to be afraid of me.

I was strict with you, I know,

but I just didn't
want to make the same mistakes

I made with your mother.

I miss her.

Hm. Me too.

Every single day.

- And your grandpa too.
- Yeah.

You are welcome to stay here
as long as you want.

Thank you.

And thank you for the lavender soap.

- It's my favorite.
- Really?

Bless this food for
the nourishment of our bodies

and our bodies to your service.

- Amen.
- Amen.

So, I was talking with Camille.

For a silent partner,
she sure does call a lot.

Well... silent partnership,

but she is extremely knowledgeable

when it comes to business
and the hospitality industry.

You know, her father
was my mentor at the bank,

and he is interested in investing

if we do the farm-to-table restaurant.

- In Cincinnati?
- Possibly.

But, you know, I think
right here would be

the ideal spot
to showcase the local farmers

who grow the vegetables
and make the cheese.

I am so proud of you, Jake.

Always up for a challenge.

Remember when you broke your arm

falling out of the climbing tree?

How could I forget?
I spent my entire 13th birthday

in a cast from shoulder to wrist?

Annie flew into the house all a-dither

yelling that you'd broken your arm.

You trailed in behind her
cool as a cucumber

examining the angle
of your broken bones

like some scientist.

Yeah, well, I think I was in shock.

You did not shed a tear.

But Annie, she was crying
her eyes out for you.

Where you going with this, Mom?

Oh, Annie was a good friend to you.

She was, but she decided
otherwise in high school.

Anyway, that was a long time ago,

and I'm really happy
with my current plan.

All I'm saying is that it seems like Annie

is at a crossroads in her life right now

and that she could use a good friend.

I'm begging you, please, please just stop.

- Morning.
- I just made a fresh pot.

I thought you'd like some while it's hot.

Thank you.

I heard you yelling at Elvis
and I knew you were up.

- Elvis?
- The rooster.

Oh, I've always loved that name.

You know, I can sleep
through 5 a.m. garbage trucks,

all night sirens, but that crowing.

That... oh!

Is your knee bothering you again?

And don't tell me it's the weather.

- There's not a cloud in the sky.
- I'm fine.

Dr. Bright is on me to get it fixed,

but it's going to have to wait.

There's just too much to do around here.

I'll give him a call.
Anyway, don't you dare.

I... I will...

I'll be fine in a minute.

See, the pain's already passing.

So do you have any plans for the day?

I don't know.

I'm going stir-crazy waiting
around to hear about this job.

I need a project.

Do you need any help around
the garden or anything?

Why don't you go see if Woody
needs any help in the chicken coop?

Yes, ma'am.

- Hey.
- Morning, Annie.

How are the nesting boxes coming?

Making mighty fine progress,
aren't we, Jake?

Yes, sir.

Ran into Woody on my morning run.

Told this big city banker I
could learn him a thing or two.

I'm sure he needs
all the help he can get.

Yeah, well, I wasn't the one always
trying to get out of my egg duties.

- Okay, um...
- Remind me,

how many times did you get me
to do your chores

and gather eggs for you? I forget.

You know what? The
hen-pecking never bothered you.

True. Hurt a lot less than getting
stepped on by a Jersey, that's for sure.

We used to trade our eggs and chickens for
fresh milk from the wild earth dairy cows.

I brought you a string of the finest
bluegill and crappie my pond can produce.

- Oh!
- Pretty good fishermen.

Thank you.

So when was the last time you
actually had fresh fish there, city girl?

Anyway, that was very nice
of you, Woody.

In fact, fried bluegill is one
of my grandma's favorites.

Got a little bit of everything
on my farm, not just fish.

- Yeah?
- A little corn.

I got chickens, cows, plus the
horses I trade here and there.

Got several kids, too.

- Aw, how old are your kids?
- Let me think.

I have a set of twins and a set of triplets.

You do?

He's talking about his goats.

Right. I knew that.

I better get going or I'm gonna
be late for my Saddle Club clients.

Shoot, I still need to check on Nutmeg.

Well, guess I'll be late.

Don't worry, Woody,
I'll check in on him for you.

We can do that, yeah.
Yeah, don't be late.

You're the best, Annie.

You too, Jake. Here.

- Thanks, Woody.
- Nutmeg, is that a horse?

Yeah, I think maybe you should
just stay here with the chickens.

Did you call me a chicken just then?

Is that what just...

- Are you kidding me?
- Well, I mean, you are the only country girl I've ever known

who isn't comfortable around horses.

Well, it's not that
I'm not comfortable, I just...

Seriously, I got this, all
right? I'll check back later.

Wait up.

Gosh, I haven't been
down to this barn in ages.

Used to be my favorite place
to hide back in the day.

I remember.

Take my grandpa's old globe
and climb up onto the loft.

Dream about all the places
I wanted to go.

Used to talk all the time back then.

What was that?

Sorry.

Don't worry,
Nutmeg is as gentle as a lamb.

I promise. Be right back.

Come on, Nutmeg.

Annie, this is Nutmeg.

Nutmeg, Annie.

She's 12
years old and very, very calm.

See, horses have
an extra sense about people.

See? She likes you.

- She's a beautiful horse.
- Yeah.

Here.

- Oh, no, no, you go ahead.
- All right.

Here you go.

All right.

- Want to pet her?
- I... I'm okay.

Are you sure? She's really, really soft.

Okay. Maybe just one time.

Hey. Here you go.

Hi...

- Good girl.
- Thanks.

I was talking to the horse,
but you're doing great, too.

Thanks.

Nutmeg. Annie.

Hey!

She likes you.

Ah... Your grandpa's globe's still here.

- Yeah.
- So where are you traveling today?

Reykjavik, Iceland.

Wow. Well, you better pack warmly.

- Your turn. Close your eyes.
- Okay.

- Argentina.
- Argentina.

Ooh! So I take it you've been?

Yeah, a few times. I used to
have a route through Buenos Aires.

Wow.

That's why I left in the first place.

I just wanted to travel, get out.

Get away from everyone
knowing my business?

Well, you certainly accomplished that.

You know, I never pictured you
being so passionate about farming.

We both know it can be
a pretty hard way to live.

It can be.

Well, I do have a great business partner.

Though she's not as excited
about the actual farming as I am.

A colleague from the bank?

Sort of. My mentor's daughter, Camille.

Just a business partner?

For now.

She been here yet?

She's not exactly a country girl.

She's one of my reservations
if I'm being honest.

Well, I can relate to that.

I don't know what I am these days.

You know, I should go. Told my
grandma I'd help her in the garden.

I can walk you back to the house.

That's okay. I know you're busy.

I've taken up enough
of your time already, so...

Good to see you.

Bye, Nutmeg.

I have never seen
anybody else smell dirt.

This dirt is our history.

It's like a time machine for me.

I never know what memory is
going to play out when I smell it.

- You try it.
- Oh... Okay.

Smells like... dirt to me.

Well...

You don't have as many
memories here as I do.

It'll come, though.

- All right, what are we doing?
- Well, we're going to rake this soil

so we can scatter some green seeds.

I'm going to try to grow
some late spinach and kale.

- Okay.
- Here's the spinach.

Put some in your hands.

- Scatter it.
- Okay.

- And I'll rake over.
- All right!

All right.

- Just like that?
- Perfect.

Great.

You know, one of my favorite memories

is sitting with Grandpa on the back porch

breaking beans in the summer with
a katydids and bullfrogs all around.

You always griped about work.

Well, I was a teenager.
It was my job to gripe.

Well, your grandpa sure
cherished those times with you.

He was a good listener.

I'd talk about wanting to see the world.

Do all the things
my mom could never do.

What did he say?

I remember his exact words. He said,

"I believe your mom
would have liked that."

- He said that?
- Yeah.

Then, of course, he'd say, but don't
forget to come home every now and again.

He could never say no to you,
or your mother.

I didn't keep that promise very well.

- Well.
- I know I haven't been home much.

Well, when you raise children, you expect
them to leave the nest at some point.

I could have visited more.

You're here now. That's what counts.

Let's not dwell
over things we can't change.

- Oh!
- Grandma!

- Are you okay?
- Yes.

Okay, put this down.
Come on, it's your knee.

Come on, come with me.
I got you. I got you.

Slow. Just, yeah...

Okay. Right here.

Okay, great. Okay.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

All right.

Call Evelyn and ask if Jake can
come and help me to the house.

Well, I can probably...

Please?

- All right, I'll call him.
- Okay.

Nice and easy.

I'm sorry to make such a fuss.

It's just a bad spell. It'll ease off.

Dr. is on his way.

He'll be right over
and you'll be right as rain.

She said he's been
on her about getting it fixed.

Well, I'm going to go
grab you a blanket, all right?

This is nonsense.
My garden isn't finished.

My beets haven't come up yet.

We will worry about your beets.
You're in pain.

It's not that easy.

- How does some sweet tea sound?
- It sounds good.

Annie, why don't you come
with me to the kitchen?

Jake?

Hey.

- You're still here.
- Yeah. Uh...

I wanted to make sure
Beulah was all right.

- How's she doing?
- She's fine.

- Your mom's with her right now.
- Good.

They finally agreed to get her knee fixed.

The doctor made some calls and
they're getting her in a week from Tuesday.

- Ah... I'm really glad to hear that.
- Me too.

So, I just wanted to give you
a little heads up.

Word on the street is that your
boyfriend worked for the airline,

and had to fire you, and that's
why you broke up with him.

Are you kidding me?

No, I know, I know. It's a small town.

People just... they fill in the blanks
with what they think is interesting.

That is so ridiculous. It's funny.

I like it. It's not what happened.

Well, if you don't mind me
asking, uh... what did happen?

I broke up with Stuart because I...

I guess I liked the idea
of who I thought he could be,

but not who he really was.

So, you never envisioned
growing old with him?

You know, I don't think
I actually ever pictured that.

What about you?

No, I never envisioned myself
growing old with Stuart.

I meant you and Camille.

Well, I... You know, our parents
would love for us to end up together.

- I think she would too.
- Of course she would.

You're a catch.

Oh, come on.
You're one of the good guys.

Everybody who knows you knows that.

Thank you.

She's sleeping now.

We'll check in on her later.

Alright. Well, if you
need anything, just call.

Thank you.
Thank you both for being here.

Of course, sweetheart. Good night.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Grandma? What are you doing out here?

You're supposed to take my bed.

That's your bedroom. I'm fine here.

I've been thinking.

I'm going to postpone the surgery.

Oh, no, no, no.

We've been over this.
You heard Dr. Bright.

The longer you wait,
the worse your knee could get.

You're going to be
going to New York soon, and...

I can stay as long as necessary.

What about your job?

I might get my job back
in three months. Maybe six.

Actually, this is the perfect
time for you to have this done.

That's very sweet of you,
but your life is up north.

You'll soon tire of caring for me.

I don't want to be a burden.

I want to do this.

Let me do something for you, for once.

You put your life on hold
to finish raising me.

And now it's my turn to do
this one small thing for you.

Okay?

Okay.

Now, will you please take my bed?

No.

Thank you so much.

The living room couch
is hard as a stone bench.

And Grandma's bed is too
big to bring downstairs.

Ah! Not a problem at all.

Came from our guest house, so...

Happy to have it put to good use.

I don't know how she's been
managing the stairs this whole time.

- Well, we are here to help, Annie.
- Yeah.

Come on, Jake, hold up your
end. I'm doing all the work here.

Well, your work is going
to dent my truck, Woody.

All right, now I got to turn it.

All right, I got it.

All right, hang with me if you can, Jake.

Right behind you, boss.

You guys are doing great.

Pastor Scott, thank you for helping.

Call me Scott, and I'm happy to be here.

Although I did hear something about fresh
biscuits and homemade persimmon jam?

Yes. You remind me of Woody.

How are you holding up?

Fine.

It's just...

My grandma's always been
so hearty and tough.

You know? Strong, mind and body.

I haven't known Beulah for long,
but I can tell that much of her strength

comes from her faith in God.

My grandpa used to say
we were just alike.

I always thought we were total opposites.

Is that so?

She was so strict, and I was rebellious.

I left home after high school.

It was easier to be in New York,
where life travels at the speed of light.

But being back home...

Truth becomes plain.

Some truths.

Some things are still pretty unclear.

You both seem
very strong and determined.

Maybe... you're drawing your
strength from different wells.

I never thought about it like that.

But wait, then...
which well am I drawing from?

Keep asking God for guidance.

You all set? Do you need anything?

- Coffee? Sweet tea?
- Nothing, honey. I'm fine.

Do you remember this?

Is that the family Bible?

It was upstairs in my room.

The boys brought it down with the books.

I haven't seen this in years.

Our whole family is
recorded here. Take a look.

Frederick Campbell.
Beulah May Campbell.

Joanne May Campbell-Taylor.

Jacob Frederick Campbell.
Lillian William May.

- Ephraim May?
- My older brother, Ephraim.

He was awarded a Purple
Heart for his service. God rest him.

I didn't know that.

Our relatives go back as
far as the Pioneer days. See?

Boone? Is that Whitley?

And Shelby.

They were the ones who first
bought this land over 200 years ago.

That's amazing. I had no idea.

You and I are the last ones
left of the May family.

That's right.

That's why it's so important
to hold on to the land.

It's our heritage.

Portrait of the artist, the young woman.

It's nice to see you still draw.

Uh... Not quite.

I haven't drawn in years.
Just messing around.

You mind?

Oh, sure.

How many hours of our childhood
did we spend playing here?

- So many.
- Yeah.

What is it?

Your necklace.

Oh, yeah. I found it in a drawer.

It's the one you gave me
for my 16th birthday.

- I remember.
- Yeah.

I gave it to you right at this very spot.

Yeah, and then we...

Kissed.

My first kiss.

Mine, too.

- Really?
- Yep.

You know, I'm kind
of surprised you kept it.

Why?

Well, soon after that, you started
dating Brett... uh... what's his name?

- Bradshaw.
- Bradshaw. Right.

It was like a month later.

Well, we were supposed to go to
the homecoming dance together.

- What?
- Mm-hm.

You never asked me to the dance.

Well, I thought it was understood.

In fact, I remember I went to you

and said he asked me,
and you told me to go.

Because I figured you had
already made up your mind.

Well... You could have said something.

You didn't care.

Wouldn't have made
a difference anyway.

But you're wrong about one thing.

I did care.

You did?

I did.

More than you know.

Oh...

Um, wow, I lost track of time.

I'm supposed to help my grandma
with dinner, and I am late.

Sure. So, um...

Anyway, I should get going,
but I'll see you later.

- Yep.
- Yeah, okay.

See you later.

Oh, uh, bring the biscuits in, please.

- Yep.
- Did you notice how

the boiling water made the
ham slices all nice and tender?

Yes, it's a great trick.

Okay, what's next?

- Uh, set the table.
- Right.

I don't know what I would have
done without you this past week.

Sit down for a minute.

Pastor Scott will be here soon,

but I wanted to talk to you alone
before I go into surgery tomorrow.

I want to make sure
that you know how things stand

if something should happen to me.

Grandma, nothing's
going to happen to you.

- It's going to be fine.
- It'll probably be fine,

but the Lord's will be done.

Besides, we needed
to have this talk anyway.

May not be tomorrow,
but it will be someday.

Now, all of my papers, everything you
need to know is in the lockbox upstairs.

The farm will be yours
to do whatever you wish with.

Of course, I would love for you
to keep the farm and live here,

but I know that's not likely.

- I don't know how...
- If you decide to sell,

um, it would be my preference

to give Jake a fair price and first option.

Okay.

I mean, if you marry a man up north,

most likely
he would rather have the cash,

so you could buy something there.

I just

never realized how much
of our history is here.

- You know?
- I mean, I'd heard the names,

but I never connected everything.

Sorry to have laid this hard talk on you,

but it had to be done.

It's okay.

Cast all your anxiety on him,
because he cares for you.

Lord...

Sorry for

going my own way all these years.

Please protect my grandma tomorrow

and bring her home safely.

Evelyn?

Yeah, yeah, I'll be right there.

Oh, Annie!

Thanks for coming by.

- Everything okay?
- Oh, yeah.

- How's Beulah?
- She's great.

She's at the house with Pastor Scott.

Tomorrow morning, first thing,

- I'm taking her to the hospital.
- Good.

Oh, please give her this
from Jake and me.

Oh, thank you, she'll love it.

But was there something else?
Because on the phone...

I had an idea.

Now, Beulah's knee may need fixing,

but her hearing is crackerjack,

which is why I wanted to talk to you here.

- Okay.
- I may get in trouble for this,

but we have cooked up a way
to fix up your grandmother's farm

- while she's in the hospital.
- How?

A whole bunch of church members
have volunteered to work for free.

Oh, my goodness!

Now, I know that Beulah
won't accept any kind of charity,

so we'll let her pay
for the paint and the materials.

I know she's got a big chunk of
money in the fridge set aside for repairs.

And behind the TV,
and upstairs in the hall closet.

I don't want to know.

The volunteers can start
tomorrow morning.

And with a few days in the
hospital, and if the weather holds,

they should be able to get
a lot done before she gets home.

Evelyn, this is wonderful.

She's gonna be thrilled.

- Yes, this is so great.
- Hey, don't forget this.

- There you go.
- Thank you. Thanks.

- Jake.
- Annie.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Look, I'm sorry about last week.

- No, I'm sorry.
- I've been meaning to stop by the house.

I've just been really busy.

Yeah, I heard that Phil
agreed to sell you the diner.

Yeah, yeah.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you, thank you.

But now the real work begins.

So, are you okay alone with the farm?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

Well, look, if you need anything,
just give me a call, all right?

- I'll be right over.
- Thanks, Jake.

That means a lot.

- I'll see you.
- Yeah.

More peeling paints.

Broken gate hinge.

Hey, you lost your apple.

Do... Do you want it?

Okay. Just be gentle.

Oh!

Good girl.

Good girl.

This is so exciting.

Hey, so, how's Beulah?

She's great. The surgery was a success.

- Praise God.
- She's ready to come home,

but the doctors are saying
Wednesday or Thursday.

They should give us enough time.

All right, let's get to it, huh?

Yes.

♪ Don't want diamonds, don't want gold ♪

♪ You're all that I need

Hey, y'all. How about some sweet tea?

♪ Don't want diamonds, don't want gold ♪

Thank you so much.

♪ You're all that I need

- Looking so good.
- Hey, Annie.

Apple muffin right out of the oven.

Don't mind if I do.

- Thank you so much for your help.
- Thanks.

You still planning on going back to
flying around in those airplanes for a job?

Well, I haven't heard anything,
but, yeah, probably.

Wouldn't get on one of those
airplanes if my life depended on it.

Really?

There's nowhere you'd want to go?

No, ma'am. Anywhere I want
to go, I can drive.

Well, what about a different
country, like France or Italy?

Or La Argentina.

- That sounds pretty good.
- Thank you.

- Muffin?
- Oh, no, thank you.

I already had three of them.

Nice.

I take my vacation
every time I get up on my horse.

There's nowhere I'd rather
be than home.

What could be better
than this right here?

Woody, I could not agree with you more.

Although we haven't traveled
the world like Annie has.

Even so, I think you might
be on to something there.

- It's you.
- It's me.

You expecting someone else?

No, I had a car. I didn't know...

- So how's Beulah?
- She's great.

Yeah, I got off from
the hospital not too long ago,

and she's sleeping.

The doctor says she's making
a pretty quick recovery.

- That's good to hear.
- Yeah.

Have you had supper?

I haven't even thought about it. Has it...

Oh, I guess I lost track of time.

We should get something to eat.

I could drive us up to Lexington.

You know, we have enough
casseroles inside

to feed an army for a year,
I'm pretty sure.

So we can just eat here.

But I should probably freshen up.

No, I think you look great now.

You know, to be able to pick our
friendship back up after all these years

has been such a gift.

Maybe

you should stay.

I mean, it's funny you should say that.

I have been wondering
what it would be like

if I just didn't go back to New York.

The truth is, in my life there,

I'm surrounded by people, but I

often feel pretty alone.

Well, perhaps the layoff
is an opportunity.

Honestly, I have been happier
the last few weeks.

More at peace than I have been in years.

That's a good thing,
a really, really good thing.

So what's holding you back?

I don't know.

What are you afraid of?

I'm afraid...

Um... I'm sorry. I'm just...

It's been a long day. I'm tired.

I'm hungry, you're hungry,
and there's casseroles in there.

So let's get one. Okay?

- I want to hear about your business.
- Yeah.

Business.

Would you look at all this?

Ha! Wow!

So beautiful! Who did all this?

- There she is!
- Oh, she's here.

Welcome home!

- Wow!
- Welcome home.

Evelyn orchestrated it.

You would have done the same for me.

Everyone here donated
their time and labor.

We just finished this morning.

Man's sake! How nice!

It looks like heaven to me.

- I don't know what to say.
- Aw!

Well, just wait till you see
out back in the barn.

And the chicken house.

Don't worry, Elvis is still
the king of the coop.

Oh, phew.

Woody! Ah!

Thank you. Thank you.

- Let me get the door.
- Wow!

Isn't it beautiful?

It's almost two weeks and people
are still dropping by flowers and meals.

Well, you are much loved around here.

You don't know how good
it feels to be home again.

I don't care if I never
spend another night away.

Grandma, lately...

I've seen things in a way
I never had before.

And I want you to know it's
going to be different from now on.

We are family,

and I won't take that for granted again.

Oh, now... I've done my share of
making things hard between us, too.

And when the time comes,

I promise I will do everything
I can to hold on to this farm.

Annie

that's the best gift you can give me.

Now, the doctor says you're supposed
to be keeping up with your exercises.

So while you do those, how
about I make us some breakfast?

- That sounds wonderful.
- Okay.

Oh.

Um, I better take this.

Bob, hello.

Annie, I have good news.

Got you back in a week!

- A week?
- Monday, 9 a.m.

You have to go through
Hudson Airlines orientation

just like any other new employee.

But after training
you'll be in the skies again.

You're welcome?

Sorry, I, um...

I just can't start that soon.

My grandmother recently had surgery,
and so she needs me here, and...

Do you know how hard
I had to fight for you?

Do you know how many people
are standing in line behind you?

Yes, and I appreciate it, you know I do.

Good. So I'll see you on Monday.

Bob, I just... I just need more time.

Annie, you're lucky to have this job.

I'll give you to noon tomorrow
to give me a final answer, okay?

See you soon.

You're supposed to be doing
your exercises.

Do you want me to help you...
Wait, are you hungry?

Bad news?

That was my boss.

He was able to get me back.

Well, that's good news!

That's what you were waiting to hear.

Grandma, I'd have to start on Monday.

Oh...

When all this happened,

he said it would be at least
three months, possibly six.

I am so sorry.

Well, there's nothing to be sorry for.

You have your job back.

It's a blessing,
not something to feel sad about.

I'll make out fine.

Evelyn's already said
she'll help me if I need her.

You've gotten me through the worst part.

And look what all
you've done around here.

I can hire some extra help
for the garden.

No, I'll manage fine.

It has been wonderful having you here.

And I won't miss that.

But I want you to live your life.

I'll fly home on days off.

I'll come home so often
you'll be tired of seeing me.

- I'll come to New York.
- Really?

If you promise you won't
make me ride the subway.

Deal.

I should go tell Jake.

It's not going to be easy.

It's gonna be okay.

Yeah.

Jake.

Um, I was just on my way to see you.

Oh, well, I was thinking maybe we
could take that trip up to Lexington?

I have a favorite place
I'd love to show you.

Listen, I want to tell you before
you hear it from someone else.

Um... My boss called
and I got my job back.

I thought you were
thinking about staying.

Well, I was, sort of.

It's not reality.

Jake, I would...

I'd be walking away from so much.

My seniority, my benefits.
I can't turn it down.

But I'm going to come home a lot more.

And we'll see each other all the time.

I don't get it, Annie. I thought
you'd made up your mind.

I'm just going back to a job
I know I can do well.

You know what?
I think you're just scared.

That's not fair.

That is not fair. No.

I can't just leave the life
I've built for years now

and, what, start over again with nothing.

Right. Nothing.

It'll be different this time.

You know I'll come home a lot more.

And I needed this moment.

It was unexpected.

Unwanted, really.

But it's been

the best thing
that's ever happened to me.

I don't know what to tell you about Jake.

I mean, it's been really exciting.

Traveling, seeing all those places.

Do I really want to go back
to living out of a suitcase?

Which well am I drawing from?

Faith?

Or fear?

I want it to be faith, Lord.

My home.

My family. My history.

My friends. The land. This is my home.

This is my home.

This is where I want to be.

Thank you.

Give me strength, Lord.

To put down roots
instead of running away.

Coffee.

Extra strong, just the way you like it.

Thank you.

You all packed?

I'm not going to New York.

Don't stay for me.

Or anyone else.

I'm not. I'm staying for me.

I already talked to Bob, my old boss.

It's official.

- I'm so happy.
- Me too.

Me too.

Even if it means facing my mistakes

and missed opportunities
for the rest of my life.

I don't understand.

Jake.

I've made a mess of things
since high school.

Don't be so sure.

I have seen the way he looks at you.

I believe it will all work out in the end.

- How can you be so confident?
- Because...

I've been praying, and
trusting that God will work it out.

Well, I have a delivery to make.

- Wish me luck.
- Good luck.

This was by the front door.

It's for you.

Thanks.

So, how are things coming along with Bill

and your plans for the diner?

Great. Great.

Camille's out of the picture, but I found
a local investor to go in on it with me.

- That is wonderful news.
- Yeah.

It's hard having Annie leaving.

It was always a part of her plan.

Honey...

Did you ask her to stay?

I would never want
to interfere with her career.

That's not what I meant.

Sometimes

well, sometimes you have to

make your case.

You know, she made hers
and I'm respecting it.

All right.

I just don't want you wondering
"what if" for the rest of your life.

All right.

I'm headed over to Beulah's.

I'll see you later.

Okay.

Prettiest garden west of the Alleghenies.

I appreciate all
you've done for me, Evelyn.

Letting go of my pride
and letting others help me

was a lesson I had to learn.

Oh... It wasn't anything that you wouldn't

and haven't done for me
and many others.

Thank you.

- God's will be done.
- Amen.

I hope I'm not jumping the gun here,

but do you think
she's going to see Jake?

I hope so.

Hi.

- Thanks for meeting me.
- Of course.

I had to thank the artist in person.

That drawing, you are incredibly talented.

I love it.

- You do?
- Yeah.

And thank you for the note.

Well, you were right.

Back in high school,

deep down I knew you wanted more.

But it scared me.

I had to go and travel

and do all the things
my mom and I used to talk about.

And you were the one person
who could have kept me here.

You know, I think
in my heart I always knew that.

I knew I had to let you go.

But now I need to ask you something.

Would you go on a date with me

as someone you might fall in love with?

Might?

Yeah.

Do you remember what you said
when I gave this to you?

I asked you if we would

It's good to be home.

♪ Trying to make my way

♪ Going about my day

♪ Thoughts of you
run through my mind ♪

♪ Burn my heart and make me blind ♪

♪ Living in a daze,
counting all the ways ♪

♪ You come in and blow my mind ♪

♪ Hold me close, pull down the blind ♪
