Oh, make sure that hem is straight. Got it.
This red looks wonderful next to the green.
Ah, I just wish I could add more frills here.
Oh, hide the stitching, Biddy. Oh, hidden. How about minimal for the button
you can set a standard full time?
Love it. Cover, streamline, and done.
Beautiful. Thanks, Kaylee.
I just can't believe they didn't go for this design.
That's a great design, but it's just not perfect.
I guess sleek and gorgeous buyer's uniforms will have to do for gimbals.
And that works for Magnolia Sky.
All right, time to send it over to the big boss herself.
Sounds good.
I'll give me a call and take care of it. Thanks.
She said she wanted to see us.
We've been coming.
You know, I heard a rumor that Magnolia Sky might be working the Godfrey Gala.
Wow, really?
It's the 100th year anniversary and my favorite love story of all time.
Lord Andrew loved her so much. And Lady Josephine, the style and grace. I know,
I know.
Their date is so romantic.
I heard there's a new movie imagining coming soon.
I wouldn't get to work a project like that.
But the tickets are sold out and I am stuck here designing uniforms for
accounts. I know.
You just have to be patient. I promise it'll happen.
You are earning me a trust with each dollar you make for Magnolia, whether
they're referrals or... Talk to you later.
Hi, Mia.
Oh, hey, Isabel.
I saw the gimbal uniform designs. I love them. And the client loved them, too.
I just have a couple of notes.
They do want to go with the bigger order.
Is that okay? Not a problem.
This is an important account.
It gives us a lot of freedom to go for the bigger swings.
Mia, I can do this project, too.
My last three high -profile uniforms, they got rave reviews from the clients,
and they also proved to be profitable.
All of my designs have been highly regarded.
I just want to start working the bigger project.
Isabella, I know how talented you are, and I know you want to spread your wings
creatively.
I just don't think you're there yet. But I am.
You have great ideas, but you can't use all of them at once. And when you work
on the bigger orders, you are going to have to take creative risks. And for
that, you will need a crystal clear vision.
But once you pass on from that, you will be booking gigs like the Godfrey
Centennial Gala.
Okay. Thanks, Mia. Understood.
They are designing for the Godfrey Gala, and I can't believe I'm not the one
doing it. Oh, you'd be perfect for that. I know. I'd give anything to design for
the Centennial.
Well, at least we all love the uniforms.
I just have to take that last step.
Exactly. And remember, what does Lady Josephine say in your favorite film, The
Godfrey Love for All Time?
It's rarely a first step that's important, nor the second, third, or the
we take.
If it's something worth fighting for, I can't count high enough. And I'll fight
to infinity for this love.
She really was a style icon.
Underappreciated, I'd say.
Mmm.
Agnes. She does her great -grandmother's name proud.
You know, she's the reason I first got into design.
I know.
She really was amazing.
That's why, out of all the stories about Godfrey, The Godfrey Love for All Time
is my absolute favorite.
Plus, my mom produced it.
But it's not just the story. It's the opulence of the time.
It was the height of fashion in Josephine's front and center.
And you've seen all those movies a hundred times.
Don't you want to throw in a docuseries every once in a while, too?
Keep up on things?
Oh, I am up on things. Besides, I don't want my free time to be bogged down with
disaster and tragedy.
I get that.
Which is, by the way, exactly how I would describe the last guy.
So you've really sworn off love?
I'd rather watch and read about Godfrey. That's real love.
I don't need another dud.
They can't all be duds, eh?
I think you just look for too perfect.
Well, they are, and the Godfrey's definitely wouldn't approve.
Oh, is that what it is?
Well,
you are right about one thing.
That was the best time.
Hey,
I got that.
Um, hi.
Hi. Thanks.
Hey, the Godfrey's.
Romeo and Juliet of our time.
Yeah, I agree. It's the perfect romance.
Lady Josephine.
She was such an icon.
Very influential.
Her style and her strength and her love. And those movies.
Oh, the movies. The Godfrey love for all time is definitely my favorite.
You know, it's black and white, a little bit sappy, but I don't know, there's
something about it. It just gets me.
And it shows so beautifully what Andrew gave up for the woman he loved. Yeah,
exactly. Yeah, definitely.
Well, shame it's not a real story.
What?
Well, it's a fairy tale.
Just like the Godfrey love for all time.
It's too perfect. Didn't happen. Not that way.
Well, it definitely did happen. We know that.
And it's the perfect story.
But it's just that. The story.
Besides, there's plenty of evidence that shows there's more to it than always
is. Not the whole chapter on Andrew and Josephine Audrey Godfrey? Ah, this is
the part that most experts get wrong.
It's actually pronounced Audrey.
Her middle name was her grandmother's maiden name.
I wrote the author of the Godfrey biography, and I got a nice thank you in
return.
Besides, there is no evidence.
And all things are stories.
I guess, if you think of it that way.
So how could a story that's endured for a century be fake?
You know, there are plenty of stories about dragons that are very convincing,
too. Can I interest you in one of those?
You know, there's a famous Oxford historian who wrote a whole doctorate
how... And he claims that there's a big scandal beneath the Godfrey surface and
he cites letters that have never been seen before. Yes, exactly.
He also claims that we're living in the 1700s because the Middle Ages never
happened.
Really? Yeah.
You know, you should check your sources more.
And enjoy a true, perfect story when you hear one.
I will.
If it ever comes along.
Have a nice day.
Yo. Lake,
so good to see you. Hey, pleasure.
I'm so excited to be sitting with you, a storyteller of your acclaim. I'm
certainly a fan.
And, of course, your famous DPN compadre, Carl.
We're glad to be here. So let's get right into it. I know this type of gig
exactly what you normally take on the documentary side, but the Godfrey's are
having their centennial anniversary gala this year.
Their love story is very important to our network.
We want the best directing it. We want you.
Sounds like a puff piece.
Well, actually, we're flattered.
And maybe there is an opening in the schedule.
He's right.
Maybe there is.
What are you looking for?
It's mostly filming the party and celebrating their epic love story up
personal, but with your flair.
Challenge accepted. Excellent. But if I do this, I want to get to the bottom of
it. I've always felt that if you dig deep enough, you'll find a story worth
telling. I want a historical guide. I want complete access to the house. I
the full experience.
This project is important, and we want you to make it soar.
The network won't have a problem figuring it out.
Welcome aboard.
All right.
I just met the most cynical guy.
There's such a buzzkill about the Godfrey's. Oh, no.
Hey, what is going on around here?
One of our biggest clients had a huge emergency, so Mia had to drop off a huge
gig to take care of it. Now everyone's scrambling to find a replacement
to fill in.
What's the gig?
The Godfrey Mansion Centennial Gala. The gala?
Kaylee?
It's great exposure.
Very high profile.
And we'd love to.
No.
Unavailable.
That's unfortunate.
No, I've already tried them.
But thanks for the recommendation, though.
Okay. Thank you.
I heard what happened.
Any luck?
Hey, Isabella.
No, and everyone at Magnolia is already booked on projects. And I can't find a
contractor who's available and makes sense.
And we're running out of time.
Mia, give the project to me.
I know everything about the Godfrey's. Their style, history, fashion
perfect for the job. You said I have great ideas, but you only work for
who want their designs in a box. This job is not in a box, and it's also off
-site, and you've never had to manage an environment like this.
Your ideas are great, but remember the Helix account?
I got them to go off -design, and look how great that turned out.
And I was remote on Fisher, and they signed with us long -term. It's true.
You say I don't have clear vision yet.
So let me show you just how crystal I am.
I am worried to give you more room, but this will give you a period to anchor
your creativity.
Let's see what you do with it. So your job will be to design one signature
prestige dress that captures it all, to be worn by the guest of honor herself,
the last surviving Godfrey relative, Agnes.
I know all about her. I'm saying. Very good.
This is very important for the company.
Don't mess it up.
I won't. I promise.
Thanks, Mia.
Oh, no.
The assistant seamstress is canceled. She had a family emergency.
Really?
Isabella and Polly, Erwin Jefferson, curator of the Godfrey Manor. Hi. Hello.
He will take your bags for you.
I see you guys are getting the lay of the land.
I'm in charge of the estate and preservation, including the upcoming
Essentially, everyone here and all Centennial plans will run through me.
Oh, that's great.
Now, I see you both made it, but I'm looking forward to seeing the signature
dress you'll be creating.
Thanks, Erwin.
Now, the gala is in a week's time, and there is much to do.
I've already set up your workspace and rooms, and someone will show you up
shortly. But first, there's a very important member of the team I would
to meet.
You.
Oh, I see. You both have met.
Isabella is the lead designer, and Blake?
Blake here has been hired to make a film celebrating the Godfrey anniversary and
to research and film the upcoming party.
I'm being pulled away.
Excuse me just a moment.
Wait, you're Blake Archer, that documentary director.
Huh, that's how I know you. You did that big job on The War on Sugar.
And the series on Medical Tech Leaps, the expose on Gluten -Free for PBS.
And he hosted all those, too.
But I haven't seen anything from you in a while. What are you doing now?
Is this Godfrey piece for PBS or CNN or History Channel?
Well, actually, it's for... What's that?
It's for Anthony.
Yep. Fashion and entertainment TV.
Apologies. Blake, all the experiences and tours you requested are set up.
And the network did care of everything.
Thank you so much.
Except, unfortunately, I just got a call and we don't have a historical guide
anymore. Our baby, she just had one. Oh, had it.
How am I supposed to get this done now?
Um... Erwin, is there anyone here you can recommend to be a tour guide?
Regrettably, no. I mean, the staff is doing gala prep, and we're shorthanded
is.
But you can be a tour guide, Isabella.
No way.
Me as Toby, you know everything there is about the Godfrey.
Yeah, I think this is a great idea.
After all, I mean, you know everything about this story.
I mean, you're an expert.
I am definitely an expert, but I definitely won't do it.
Come on, is there anything I can do?
Maybe something I can offer you?
Look, it's just going to be tours, walkthroughs, a letter writing.
It's an immersion in their letters of love. Not writing them. Everyone knows
that. Right, right.
Reading letters.
Still? No.
I have no time.
And you can get that information on the website.
Well, I'm trying to get more personalized information to go beyond
Is there anything I could trade?
Well, we are missing a member of our team.
That is a terrible idea. He knows nothing about that.
Why not?
We just need a set of hands.
You and I will do the heavy lifting, and he'll just be his assistant.
Well, I don't approve of that term. But I've worked with props in past
productions, and I'm very good with my hands and attention to detail, so this
perfect. I'll be your craftsman. You be my tour guide.
No, thank you. We'll be fine.
And this is your workspace. We converted the solarium for you.
Wow. We set everything up exactly to Mia's specifications as requested.
Bit of a step up from your office, right?
Yeah.
We are so delighted that you're here.
Especially when I hear that you have never been here before. This is
History everywhere.
I am the Chatelaine.
The keeper of the castle that the French make so fancily.
I'm Abby.
Or Charlie, whichever.
Just please don't call me.
Mrs. Charles, are you there?
It's so formal.
Yes, Erwin.
Do you have ice on the rest of the tables?
Yes, they were delivered this morning. Warehouse, grotto, east side.
He wouldn't be able to find his turtleneck without my help.
So, let's look at where you're sleeping.
Follow me.
Isabella, this is where you'll be staying.
It's the servants' quarters that we also use for our guests.
Oh, these designs.
Are they from... Yes, it is.
Reclaimed from the very same vessel that Andrew and Josephine used from their
excursions abroad.
This is incredible.
I know. I think so, too.
Everything in this house has been preserved and holds real significance to
story. You just have to look.
Hey, Abby, do you know anything about an antiquity room?
Supposedly, it's dashed with treasures from all of their adventures.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
And, Kaylee, you'll be staying close by.
So tomorrow, you can get started on your designs, unencumbered, and I will be
here to help you with anything you need.
Thank you, Abby.
You're welcome.
Thanks. Good night.
Okay. We have the aesthetic and the color scheme nailed down. That's great.
You did come in with great options, and we've built on those already.
Yeah, we have.
Well, good morning, good morning.
Hey. Hi.
Hi. You're very peppy. Why are you here? Well, I know you said no to my
proposal, but you also said you needed a set of hands, so I'm here to work.
Well, they sent some sewing machines over, and Kaylee's been working on
maintenance. Do you want to give her a hand and clean the bobbin cases?
Yeah. I'll do that.
Right. I can do that.
Bobbin.
Yeah, just open it up and death row.
Oh. Just make sure that the sewing equipment is clean.
Okay.
I haven't found the perfect design.
I could go with this.
You know, I couldn't help it over here, but if you're having trouble with your
design, I think maybe taking a little tour around the estate would help your
inspiration. I bet.
Come on.
Sounds like a win -win to me.
It's been a little help already, right?
Kind of.
Come on, I gotta go see Abby anyway. So why don't you be my little tour guide
for the day? Yo, Blake.
Time to go, man.
Hey, hey, I say enjoy it. Walking through the Godfrey story could help you
the right divine.
Okay, fine.
I'll do it.
Blake, quit dusting and let's go.
It's fine. Let's go.
Lord Andrew Godfrey was the son of a prominent businessman at the turn of the
century, and his father wanted him to find a wife.
The perfect wife from another important family.
But surprisingly, Andrew fell in love with the maiden of the house, Josephine.
And it was in these grounds that their love grew, in each room, in letters left
in books and secrets.
But when Josephine's family moved her away and back overseas, Andrew was
heartbroken. Without knowing where she was, he moved heaven and earth to find
her, giving up everything just to be with her again.
Now, do you think that these other matches had more to gain here? And is it
possible that these letters held additional ciphers for deeper messages?
And do you think that Andrew possibly knew where he was taken overseas?
No, no, and no.
When they were finally in each other's arms, they never let go for the rest of
their lives.
When Andrew's father saw the look in his eyes and the love in their hearts, he
gave his blessing happily.
Now, the elder Godfrey was an important magnet at the time with a biographer
doing a book.
But when he heard about the affair, he dramatized that instead.
The public couldn't get enough, and it spread like wildfire, making them
celebrities at the time, and enduring the tale that we know today.
So his father understood immediately?
And how long exactly did it take for him to get back? I'm assuming they sold
commercially. Or did he get a lift because of his status?
Do you always do this?
Yes.
Well, hello, you three. Are you enjoying the garden so far?
It's amazing.
Absolutely. Very interesting.
Excellent. I'd like to introduce you to somebody. This is Thaddeus Head Gardener
and Orchardman.
Pleasure. Hello.
Thaddeus and I have been working together for a very long time. And
have been granted most everything on your list.
Access to the gardens, the mansion, and a special experience that enable you to
walk in Andrew and Josephine's shoes to experience their love firsthand.
So no Roman reflecting pool?
No financial records?
I'm afraid not.
You know, that Roman reflecting tool would look so good.
You know what else would look good?
Special thanks in the movie.
Well, you're very lucky to have gotten everything on your list.
And why would I need that? I mean, I'm already special.
Oh, wow.
A lot of these items have never even been shown in books before.
They've been on lockdown for Family Eyes only forever.
Okay, I'm in.
You have your guide. I would love to be a part of it.
Amazing. And you have your helper.
The tour starts this afternoon.
Excellent. Well, here's your map.
No, thanks. I don't need it.
First
stop
on the tour?
The Gothic Assembly Room.
You know, for being such a legendary love story, this Godfrey guy's taste is
leaving me a bit chilly.
Oh, hey.
Now, I'd hang this for you. Oh, I'm sure you would.
But this room actually belonged to Frederick Godfrey, Andrew's father.
Frederick made his money in textiles, and he wanted Andrew to take over. But
Andrew wanted more.
One day, Frederick brought Andrew here and insisted that he comply, and then he
left him to his thoughts.
I don't think there's too much to think about.
Fortune, stature, and family tranquility.
But it was in that moment that Andrew turned and he saw a light coming down
the ceiling, shining down on this statue of Aphrodite.
Josephine was standing next to it. It was her first day working at the house,
and she took a breath away.
That's very sweet.
Don't you find this a little too on the nose for you?
I mean, just a little convenient?
Well, if that's what you call perfect magical moments, then sign me up for a
life of convenience.
Okay.
Well, this room has been left exactly as it was because it's where he first saw
her.
So, what do you think? Any inspiration for your doc?
Hmm?
I can tell you're the listener in the relationship.
No, I haven't been in one of those for a while.
Why not? Aside from your endless curiosity, which never gets tiring.
Well, you're in the arts.
Do you have time?
I'm fine, thank you. Oh, really?
I'm sure all your boyfriends love being compared to the love god Andrew Godfrey.
No comparison.
No. I was in one a while ago.
But with work and everything, it's kind of hard to find time to find what...
Love you.
Hey.
Hey, Blake.
Hi. What's that?
So I checked with my props guy, and I had him rush this over.
It's an old prop dress, but it's made with a really cool material.
Thought maybe you could use it.
Wow, this is great. Thank you.
I could deconstruct it and use the material somehow.
Do you mind taking it apart for me?
Just take out the seams and cut it up?
Yeah, sure.
Hey, so what have we narrowed it down to?
Okay, so I think that a full ball gown is too much, even for an event like
So I'm thinking we should go with either A -line or trumpet.
I love it. Those will work.
Agreed. And now we just match it up and choose the best one.
Are you sure all you want me to do is cut this up?
I can do more.
How else am I supposed to use it?
Besides, that's what a good subsistence is for.
I really don't like that label.
Well, it's a true fit.
You know I'm a director, so why not let me put my artist's eye to better use?
It's refined, it's used to making decisions, and did I mention it's
Mm -hmm, mm -hmm. You got a ways to go, buddy.
There's going to be hundreds of eyes on this.
Who knows how many cameras?
It's a lot of pressure.
Okay. It's a romantic event.
What would you wear on a perfect magical date?
Guys, I really don't have time for this. I've got to keep working.
Oh, come on. We just need a little reenactment footage.
And plus, you have the perfect stand -in for Josephine.
Come on.
It'll be quick.
Okay. I will help.
Okay.
Thanks. All right, so I say we start filming here, and we go ahead and ghost
down three times. Sounds good?
Okay.
All right, cool.
And you ready? Yep.
Cool. Action.
Oh, man, it's been a while. It's been a while.
Looking good, man. All right.
Yeah.
Keep going.
Not so bad, huh?
Yeah. Keep your eyes on the road. Okay.
All right.
Oh,
you know what would be really cool?
Is if we take the same path that Andrew and just... Perfect.
Yeah, yeah. I like it.
Go. Okay.
A little faster this time. Oh, boy.
Are you okay?
Did you get that?
That's a shot.
Yeah.
We got it.
Yeah.
You said Andrew found these flowers to be serene.
You ever get that stressed out?
Yeah, it works sometimes when I'm searching for inspiration.
I have the same problem.
They really are peaceful.
Wish I had them around me all the time.
You know, it's amazing how much detail you know about this place.
Oh, I think Carl's probably done setting up the next shot.
He should probably head back.
Yeah, he's just been cleaning up the chaos you left behind when you fell off
your bike.
Come on, it wasn't that bad.
Way to go, Grace.
Way to go.
Whoa.
I've only ever seen this in photos.
Huh.
These beautiful flowers are unique to Andrew's home, and they gave him a sense
of calm.
They are striking.
Mm -hmm.
Oh, and croquet was his release, and all the rage at the time.
Oh, but on one particular day, Andrew was not alone.
Josephine had...
Snuck away herself, and this was the very first place they ever spoke.
Oh, interesting.
They laughed and played a horrible game of croquet.
But their instant chemistry stayed in their hearts.
You know, not many people know this little morsel. You should use this in
doc.
Can't. F &E won't let me.
They need more sizzle and drama and all that.
I'm surprised they picked you for this.
But I do have a theory.
You see, those flowers are actually evidence that Frederick was involved in
illegal business.
The only other place you can find those flowers are on an island known for
counterfeiting. He probably traveled over there and brought back thousands of
them. Okay, okay, so your evidence is a flower that grows in two places.
Yeah.
That's a working theory.
I would love to see how you research for your documentaries.
Thoroughly. Thank you very much.
I'm just happy to be standing here.
You know, croquet is my favorite sport.
Or hobby.
Or whatever.
Really? Yeah.
Then we should play.
Play? No, I have to get back to designing. Oh, come on.
Okay, if I win, you have to read the entire doctorate from the Oxford
and consider his theory.
Okay. And if I win, I get to choose one thing that goes in the doc.
Deal.
Deal.
Ladies first.
My pleasure.
Why didn't you tell me this game was so easy? So easy to fall behind.
Okay, now you're just cheating.
Not cool.
Very cool.
I win.
Croquet stays in.
Let's add a little sizzle, Anthony. You'll love it.
I'm going to make some dresses.
I have an idea.
Let's try a few sample thoughts and see how they look.
I love it. Always helps to see it.
Good work.
Yeah? Yeah. Can you sew these patterns onto some swatches?
Wait, sewing?
With thread?
I don't know any stitches.
I've never done this before.
It's easy.
Do a basic running stitch up and over.
It's the first setting.
Okay. Use your artist's eye.
Oh, and don't take too long. We have to get ready for dinner tonight.
It's a big one for Andrew and Josephine that your network set up.
All right.
Do this.
Ow. Are you okay?
Yeah, I just stabbed myself.
Just a tiny prick.
Right of passage for all seamstresses.
This was a very important dinner in the Godfrey Love Story.
Which is why we'll be going through it course by course.
And aside from research and experiential, we'll be filming it for
well, doing some voiceover clips for the doc, so just act natural when you're
ready. Yeah. And don't worry, we're only getting your hands and wide shots, so
there's no reason to sign anything for your likeness. Okay? Okay. All right.
Great. Please. Okay.
In an arrangement unique to the time, Frederick Godfrey set up a marvelous
dinner for Andrew and beautiful eligible bachelorettes in the area as a meet and
greet. Kind of like speed dating.
Exactly. Frederick chose three courses, one for each of the women to have with
him. But as each charmingly tried to woo him, Andrew's attention was pulled away
by Josephine, who was helping out nearby. This is where their love story
officially began.
I love that.
Very intriguing.
Soup. Very rare and fancy.
Unique to the area.
Frederick only wanted that.
Mmm.
Delicious.
You know, if this room was a film, it would be an award -winning, high
documentary.
Apparently like the ones that you used to make.
Why did you stop anyway, if it's what you love doing?
It doesn't really matter.
It's hardly even worth talking about.
Okay, well, then, what's your process like?
Say, with the sugar film, for instance.
Well, usually when I come up with ideas, I go through tons.
I research, I read, I think.
I try to see if there's a story. But most importantly, it has to inspire me.
know, it's like a light going on inside.
So if it doesn't flip on, it doesn't work?
Exactly. Like for the sugar piece.
Delight just flicked on immediately.
So, if this meal is a renowned documentary, what's that funny?
I'd say like a mid -level cheeseburger.
I was thinking skinny margarita.
Wild duck.
Always my favorite course. Enjoy.
This Bachelorette.
The most beautiful. But as Josephine poured the wine nearby, she stole
attention and the damsel stood no chance.
Let me help you.
Thanks.
You know, that's a funny thing to be your favorite. That poor woman, she must
have been crushed and this was your favorite course?
Well, I mean, it's not like... It's just that it wasn't true,
perfect love between them.
I'm sure she was very... Very happy with someone else. Sure, sure.
Okay, so what type of dress would you design to make her feel better then?
Hmm, probably something bright green with a corset to up her confidence.
No way. The traditional fashion of courtship had frills on the bottom and
at the base.
Have you been doing research on my field?
No, I am just curious, naturally.
Oh, and speaking of which...
How do you think Frederick found the perfect bachelorette?
And why duck?
It's kind of an odd choice for this area.
And don't you think a titan of industry would have noticed and tried to keep
them apart?
Okay.
What's with all the questions and prodding? Please tell me. Okay, I have a
theory I live by.
And it's if you dig deep enough, you'll find a story worth telling.
Well, it's dangerous to make a mountain out of a molehill when you look too
hard.
Yeah, but a new perspective and a deep dive into history is healthy every so
often. And it's definitely overdue here.
So, how did dinner go?
Oh, the chai date experience was wonderful, but I don't like the dinner
partners. Oh, no.
Well, he's fun and he's a little bit charming.
And so many questions. It's like he can't take anything as it is.
I don't know. I guess he's a little funny.
I'll pack a coffee. She's here.
Wow.
Our meeting with her is soon.
I checked some of the samples that Blake sewed, and I've jotted down some ideas.
I think you're putting too much pressure on yourself.
You're going to find it. I know it.
What's next on the floor? Maybe it'll help.
Up next is the letters with Blake.
My favorite part.
Oh, wait, that's it.
The letters.
What do you mean?
It's unique. It's never been done before.
It fits the story, and it is so me. I'll use the letters themselves in the
pattern.
I love it.
Brilliant. This is it.
Agnes is going to love it. I'll see you later.
Oh, yeah. Now this.
is worth filming.
It's much warmer, right?
Josephine designed it herself.
Yes, she did.
Isabel, this is what I wanted to show you.
The famous Godfrey letters of love.
Oh, wait. So what is... Okay.
So when they wanted to speak to each other secretly, Andrew and Josephine
leave these notes in books.
They spoke about how they missed each other, things that they did throughout
day, their hopes and affections, all written down.
May I? Oh, absolutely.
Okay.
My dearest, I thought I saw you around the corner today and it brought me joy.
Just the thought made my day worth living.
It's been only a sunset since we spoke.
Meet in the garden on Nye at three. I can wait no longer.
Oh, my heart, Andrew.
Oh, that was very romantic.
You know, I can see why you find it so magnetic.
Poetry and passion.
So do you think they had a spy code?
What's that?
You know, like if they were in a hot air balloon, do you think they would drop a
letter and gone with the wind?
I don't know.
Maybe.
But I don't think that they would need one.
Might have helped, though.
Maybe.
Still not quite right.
Elegant, yeah.
Meaningful. Oh, more words and more swirls.
Yep, I'll just read the typeface.
And this
is one of the places that Andrew and Josephine used to steal their moments.
Usually after sunset, when the night sky shows.
It's beautiful.
What, no questions?
Really?
Are you messing with me?
And it's my granddaughter's favorite spot when she comes to visit.
Well, I'll bet.
She can't wait to see her grandpa in action.
I mean, this is quite the superpower, Thad.
And the name is too good.
The Orchardman?
Thank you, Thad.
You're welcome.
So, I say this will be where we film?
I don't know.
I think we need to push for something a little more creative and unique.
Maybe down from one of those branches.
Or maybe get some moss, shoot through that.
Maybe you could shoot from behind one of those trees and kind of push out, as if
in secret.
But I'm not sure. I'm new at this.
It could be cool, though.
Simple.
But I like it. I like it, too.
Set it up.
All right.
Yeah, as you requested, Blake.
These are from the Godfrey Secret Collection.
They've been for Family Eyes only for decades. When Josephine's family sent
overseas, Andrew started a collection that reflected his mood.
Oh, be careful.
That's a big deal. It's okay.
This is the ring.
Josephine's ring. Oh.
Yeah. Andrew kept it with these because light exists with darkness.
Enjoy these. Can you excuse me a moment?
Are you that type of person?
You know, mementos and keepsakes forever?
Yeah. Well, no.
I don't know. It just really depends on what the memento is.
You?
Well, I'd like to think I'm a shark.
Always moving, cold as ice, bury the past forever.
But I do suspect there's a little more nostalgia to me than what I'd like to
admit.
You know, you're kind of funny sometimes.
Yeah.
Although... Thinking about it for Andrew, hoarding could speak to a fear
abandonment.
There might be something to that. Maybe from his dad?
Okay, Blake.
Hey, Abby, wait up.
Wait up. I just wanted to thank you for everything.
No, thank you.
I am so impressed. You know so much. Well, I just want to make the Godfrey's
proud with my dress.
Speaking of which, Kaylee suggested that I let the immersion in the story seep
into my designs to make it as personal as possible.
Is there anything unique that you could share with me that nobody else would
know? Maybe from when I came back and we're living happily ever after with
Frederick's Blessing?
Any little nugget can help.
No, I don't think so.
Wait, wait, wait. Of course.
Andrew and Josephine used to have the most lavish...
Fur coat parties.
Very Gatsby -esque. They were definitely the talk of the town. Oh, wow. I had no
idea.
Mia, can you hear me?
Yes, I'm here, and I'm excited to approve your designs.
Ms.
Godfrey, it's an honor.
I'm Isabella, and this is Kaylee. Nice to meet you both.
Well, without further ado...
Each swirl will be made from tiny letters from the notes that the god
each other. Words of love, passion, and romance.
Well, I'd like the cut.
And the length.
Very nice.
It's a bit cluttered, isn't it?
Complicated, I'd say.
I'm sorry, but no.
It just doesn't fit the right spirit.
Not ideal, nor the outcome we expected, but I still believe in the dress, and it
sounds like it's close. Plus, we have no time.
To work off this design, she liked the cut and the fabric, add tweak, and I'll
be there the night before the gala to see Agnes give her approval. If needed,
I'll help at that time. Okay?
Okay. Thanks, Mia.
Hi. Want to go for a walk? Have a glass of mead? Sure.
I'm sorry Agnes didn't like your dress.
I thought it was inspired.
Thanks.
Someone did.
And I'm sorry for being a little difficult, baby.
Ditto.
And I'm sorry you fell off of a bike.
I didn't fall off. Okay, those bikes were old.
So, how's the doc coming?
It's good.
We're shooting the host up tomorrow.
Any of your other docs like you used to make?
No.
No, not for a while.
I used to love the passion and the truth of filmmaking.
All the fame stuff never really mattered to me. But when I found documentaries,
I just felt connected.
And with every idea I got, It just ignited my love for it more and more.
It's been so long since I've had a story that just flicked on the light.
Gosh, it's been years since I've had a story that was inspired.
Back when I was with my ex.
I knew we weren't really right for each other, but it's just been hard to find
new inspiration.
How did you get into design?
That's part of why I love this story so much.
Aside from being the Romeo and Juliet of our time, Josephine was a style icon.
She's my hero.
Worship her design influence.
That's a really great answer.
So your love life, un -Godfrey -like?
All duds, I recall you saying?
You heard that?
I mean, come on, I was right there. I couldn't help it here.
Okay.
You're right, though.
Nothing real to speak of.
I really did like your designs.
You know, maybe you shouldn't try so hard.
Sometimes it's good to let ideas breathe.
And I know you have great ones.
Yeah, I know I have the talent.
I just have to figure it out.
I know you will.
I do.
And I know you believe in the Josephine love story just as much, don't you?
Of course I do.
Maybe deep down, you believe that you don't deserve that type of love.
That you're not enough.
That there's no reason why you shouldn't be with someone good.
I just haven't found that perfect, godly kind of love yet.
There is no perfect love.
There's only perfect for each other.
What?
It's a little funny coming from someone so skeptical.
It's like your heart grew a couple of tiny sizes.
Never.
Never!
Step inside the love story known the world over. Told again and again by
to children.
Romantic to romantic and lover to lover in a way you've never seen.
Learn new details you cannot imagine as we whisk you away to...
This will be a journey I promise you will never forget.
I look great.
Thanks. Yeah, it's coming along.
So, are you ready for the next stop on the tour? Well, yes, I am.
But first, you need to go over your lines.
My lines?
That's right.
Look, you have a beautiful voice.
So, we'd like to officially make you our narrator.
And I want to make you the Godfrey Love expert for the doc.
Because every doc needs an expert.
No, I don't want to be on camera.
I hate it. It makes me very nervous. Listen, it'll be easy. Look, nobody
the story as well as you do.
I just want to hear what you have to say.
Naturally. Trust yourself.
Look, what makes this story so beloved?
It's that the Godfrey love proved that everyone deserves this love.
I mean, isn't that why this story is so universal?
And plus, I'll help you. I promise.
Okay.
I'll do it.
Yeah? Yeah, fine.
Great, great.
You got this. I'm really nervous.
You're going to be fine.
Okay.
Andrew vowed to give up everything despite his father's protest.
Nothing would stop him.
And so he began the search for his true love, Frederick B. Dan.
Now, for our Godfrey and love expert, Isabella.
Now, what does this say about Andrew's love for Josephine? And why is it
important for people in love to remember?
Well, thanks.
Love.
For the God phrase, it was important.
And for everyone else that's in love, you have
to be willing to do anything.
And if they mean everything, then
they're worth everything.
And that was important to Andrew and to everyone else, too.
Cut.
Well said.
Cut.
It was a good take.
Yeah. Yeah, just for the next one, you don't have to memorize every word. We
want to hear your voice.
And as far as how to say it, just try to breathe and it'll be okay.
Yeah. Just pretend like English is a language that you've heard and spoken
before.
Come on.
Let's try it again. Let's try it again.
All right. You got this.
Maybe we add more frills. How many frills will fit?
You know, Blake asked me to be the Godfrey Love expert for his doc.
You hate being on camera.
You always say being on display of what your dresses are for.
Yeah, I know, but it's really kind of fun.
Knock, knock.
Hey. Hey, I got something for you.
Oh, thank you.
Also, I'm going to go into town, scout some stuff story -wise.
You want to come?
I think I might have found something there that might help you.
Oh, we're not getting any more done here. Go ahead, have fun.
Hey.
Wow.
There's so much history here.
You know, I read that Andrew used to come here a lot on business.
But then after Josephine had left, he would come here just to ask about her.
Yeah, they did a great job of showing his resolve in the Godfrey love for all
time.
Okay, all right, I gotta know.
You can't name all the movies, can you? Of course I can.
No way.
You can name all the Godfrey movies?
Yes. Okay.
Do it.
Okay.
Meet me in Marseille, the God -free love for all time. What would you abandon a
love since when? Andrew and Joe, Be My Heart, Letters of Love. Meet me in
Marseille, the remake to Live and Let Love, and Lord and Lady Forever.
That was incredible.
Try something harder next time.
Press it.
Is there anything you like?
A few things, sure.
What's going on?
Is this what you were looking up for me?
I feel like when I get stuck, I go to the movies for insight.
It reminds me I don't have to reinvent the wheel.
Inspiration can be simple, built on.
I thought maybe it would be the same for you.
I thought you didn't have any inspiration.
Just not for a while.
Okay, let's go. Come on.
Thanks for helping out. We're stretched a bit thin.
These heirlooms need to be put on display for the ball.
Wow, the antiquity room.
It does exist.
That's right.
After Andrew finally found Josephine in Europe, they had exploits together
through thick and thin.
And these are their treasures.
Yeah, these are the relics from their travels.
Maybe.
Hey, Thad.
Do you think you can hold off on taking these to the grotto for a second?
Oh, sure.
Cool.
But the young lovers weren't out of danger. They had adventures full of
and queens, lost relatives, and secluded loves.
And this room is a collection of those relics.
And now to our Godfrey and love expert, Isabella.
Isabella, this room has great significance to the Godfreys, but is
more meaning that we can all glean from?
Yes, I think so.
These are all important heroic markers of adventure for the Godfrey's, but they
don't all have to be epic Small experiences can create lasting memories
fun together trips Great love is built on these moments no matter how big or
small
My
dearest Josephine I love to see you in this in the rolling hills of France
Despite the circumstances that led to it, I'll never forget for all that came
after.
All my heart, Andrew.
Are the approaching guests confirmed and on schedule?
Yes. I spoke to the hotel, and they're all ready for the incoming guests. And
made our changes as well? Oh, yes.
I increase the amount of food according to the increase in guests. We're all
set.
Ah, Isabella.
Agnes is still waiting on the final dresser guy.
It's coming shortly. I promise, Erwin.
Abby, is there a particularly inspiring part of the grounds that I can visit?
I've got some work to do and I'm looking for a spark.
Yes. There's a small garden in the back and there's a bench that Josephine would
sit on when she would write. You'll know when you see it.
Perfect. Thanks, Abby.
I also wanted to ask, I found this red dress in the antiquity room. It's just
beautiful. Why have I never seen it or heard about it in any of the stories?
It's a small thing Josephine wore a couple of times.
There's just something about it.
You don't say.
Blake, I can't tell you how much I appreciate this.
It's always been my granddaughter's dream to be a filmmaker.
Thank you. Thank you so much. No, it's not a problem at all, Pat.
The dean's an old friend, and I just made the intro. I just hope that my
recommendation gets her that scholarship.
Well, it's incredible, and if there's ever anything you need, best of luck to
her. Thank you. Yeah? Thanks. All right, it's my pleasure. Bye.
Iz, how's it going?
Good. Just sitting here enjoying Josephine's little garden.
Beautiful. Yeah.
Hey, I saw what you did back there for that.
It's really wonderful.
You overheard that, huh? I did.
It's not that big of a deal. I like helping people.
We got a sister and a niece, Clara.
One time when she was about five or six, her mom was busy.
Clara kept asking me to take her to this fair that was in town.
You know, rides, games.
But she wanted to go to this princess show.
I was busy on a film.
So she kept asking for me.
My sister sat me down, told me how much it meant to her.
Told me how they don't always stay that age forever.
How she always won't be asking for her Uncle Blake.
So I shut it down for the day, told everyone to go home, and I took her.
It was the best decision I ever made.
I'll never forget the smile on her face when she was watching that show.
She came home with that little crown.
So, whenever I can help, especially if they're young and they have a dream, I
always try to.
Uncle Blake.
I like that.
You know, I was thinking about your dress.
You should trust yourself more, Isabella.
In film, instincts are always worth following.
And I've seen enough to know that yours are great.
Thanks, Blake.
You know, this was eventually turned into a family dining hall.
Josephine happily shared holiday meals with maids and butlers.
Quite the matriarch.
How's the dress coming?
You know, I may have a solution to tweak the letter dress, but I have an idea
for a different dress that's better. It's based on this Josephine dress I had
never seen before.
I have concepts.
That's great, Iz.
But another dress?
Mia said to use the other one.
I know.
It's a risk.
But I think it's more in the spirit of what Agnes was talking about.
Well, I trust you. And it seems like you're following your instincts more
lately. I like it. They're great instincts.
Thanks.
You know, I had the thought whenever I was talking to Blake.
He's been really helpful.
I saw him helping Thad with his family.
It was just really sweet to see him helping someone he barely even knows.
He seems pretty great.
I appreciate his help. It's nice.
I'm glad. It's amazing you've got new inspiration, Isabella.
Cheers to that.
Okay.
You ready to film the return home?
Yeah. All right.
Carl?
Andrew and Josephine stood in this very room, and Frederick gave his blessing
happily.
Now, Isabella.
Regardless of the significance, the legend, the t -shirts and the movies,
wouldn't you say it's the passion of that love and being able to see it
the exact type of love that everyone wants, even if it's not a perfect fairy
tale? Yes, Blake.
I agree.
Loving yourself and your perfect kind of love can only be enhanced when you find
that love with someone else, opening up possibilities you never imagined.
And everyone needs that.
And it doesn't have to be a perfect fable, as inspiring as the Codfrees are.
It just has to be right.
And to trust that you'll know in your heart when you find it.
And then you can both have that perfect magic and let in the love that you not
only hope for.
I deserve.
And cut.
That's a wrap on our expert.
That was amazing.
You liked it? Yeah, it was great. Congratulations.
Thanks.
That was... Congratulations.
We're ready for you for the last tour on the Western grounds.
Oh, yeah.
After you.
Did you get that card? All right.
Yeah, cheese?
Yes.
They pledged forever here over at the cave for favorite flowers.
Oh, love that.
This is hallowed ground.
You know, I'm really happy that I'm able to be able to share this with you.
Me too.
So, this passion of yours, filmmaking, I loved hearing about how connected you
were to it.
Why do you think any of that ever changed?
I think I just shut myself out for so long.
Stories, inspiration, everything.
I even shut people out, too.
But I don't want to do that anymore.
Why do you feel such a connection to Josephine?
It wasn't just the way she dressed.
She made everything more vibrant.
She even dressed the workers in beautiful, new and colorful dresses that
designed.
Even the walls were magical.
Let me show you something.
Oh, wow.
The entire wing looks like this.
Josephine redecorated to make the manor a place of warmth and happiness, wonder
and adventure.
A place that Andrew never knew it could be.
It's wonderful.
Yeah, and now you see why I love this story so much?
Well, now I know why this story is so great.
It's because you're telling it.
The only thing is I feel like maybe I don't deserve that perfect kind of love
that they had.
I opened myself up to it years ago, and ever since I've only let the wrong ones
in.
You know, if it's one thing I've learned being here, Aside from the fact that
Andrea and Josephine did have a secret spy code, it's that the Godfrey's proved
that everybody deserves that love.
And that love isn't perfect.
You just haven't found it yet.
Maybe neither of us have.
But as for wonder and adventure, you have that too.
It's in your designs.
I just feel like every time I get close to a good idea, I get in my own way
without even realizing it.
You shouldn't try so hard.
You know your ideas are enough.
You're enough, Isabella, I promise.
Yeah? Yeah.
You just need to trust yourself.
I certainly do.
You know, I was wondering, I know you're going to be busy, but would you like to
be my date to the gala?
I mean, as colleagues.
Yeah, I'd love to.
I should get some rest. Yeah, I'm going to stick around.
I'm going to take in some of Josephine's work a little longer.
You know, the warmth.
Good night.
Good night, Isabella.
Oh, my God.
Hey. Hey.
You're not going to believe it, but I finished the design for the dress.
There's only a few days until the gala, so we'll have to work fast, but I can
get it done with Kaylee.
That's amazing.
There's something I have to tell you. Okay.
I found a letter inside of a book in the study, and it's from Josephine to
Andrew.
Wait, you did?
Yes. It turns out the reason Josephine left wasn't because her family moved.
family did sweep her away, but when she was abroad, she briefly fell in love
with someone else and even got married.
Now, Andrew leapt into action to find her, so it didn't last.
But she fled that marriage to be with him.
Wait.
What? Yes.
But what this actually means is once they returned, Andrew and Josephine's
marriage was never technically legal.
The Godfrey's were never actually married, Isabella. Look.
It's all here.
There's even a marriage certificate, too.
Oh.
I can't believe this.
I just thought you deserved to know.
Well, but in the end, they ultimately stayed together forever and lived
ever after.
So this actually doesn't change anything.
But it's... also a private matter and it's throwing shade on a beautiful part
history but let me guess you want my approval to put it in the doc
no no don't worry it's not going to go in this means too much i'll put it back
I have the final dress design.
That's fantastic.
And I had the best time with Blake last night.
I learned something crazy, too. Can't wait to tell you all about it. But
I kept my flare right here, but then kept this unbroken line so we can work
of what we have. Oh, wow. It is. I love it.
And not a moment too soon.
If we're going to convince Mia and Agnes, we have to finish quick. So are
sure this is the design you want to go with instead of the letters? I am.
Then let's get to it. Let's do it.
I had the most amazing night last night with Isabella. We had this wonderful
picnic, and I saw a whole new side of this mansion and the story that I ever
knew. And we found a missing Godfrey letter showing they weren't actually
married. It turns out that Josephine was secretly married to someone else
before. Tons of drama. It ended up getting resolved quick.
But there is more to the story, but we just can't tell it. Because Isabella
rightly said that it was a private matter, which really doesn't matter in
end. And I agree. So it'll stay buried.
I want a script, scene, and picture evidence in my inbox today.
I was trying to tell you.
We can't shoot this.
I mean, this is the exact type of thing that F &E wants, but it's going to crush
Isabella.
I'll take care of it.
I'll give them a call and tell them something.
We won't do it.
Do it.
You're a good friend.
I'm the best.
All right. All right.
Hey, Carl, have you seen?
Oh, great. What part of the story are you adding on to? But a new secret
marriage bombshell throws that all away.
I can't believe this.
No, Isabella, wait.
You said you were keeping the letter a secret.
And now you're sending new footage and changing the whole story?
Well, new footage is. I don't know what you're talking about. I promise.
How could you?
You know what? I know how. Because you're jaded. And you only care about
story and poking holes in things.
You know, you haven't had your next great passionate idea because you're not
passionate about anything. And you're blocked because you refuse to let love
into your life. Which doesn't matter anyway because that's not what you want.
Well, you're too scared to let anyone or anything past your wall. That's why all
you do is bury yourself in this story over and over again. Because it's easier
than putting yourself out there.
You're scared and you know it.
Isabella. Tammy.
Hello to you both. Mia, hi.
So? You have something to show me. I know you said to work off the other
but I have an idea for something that's...
Better.
This.
This will speak to Agnes. It has the God -free spirit she's looking for.
Very inspiring, Isabella. Beautiful.
But I disagree with you.
I think your other design is what Agnes wanted.
I think we should stick with that dress.
Mia, I've never been more sure of anything in my life.
I know that you say I don't have clear vision.
But I know in my heart that this is the dress that Agnes and this gal needs.
Okay. I trust you.
Thank you.
I love it.
It's perfect.
So many have made dresses for this story and for this place.
You are the only one who truly understood Lady Josephine.
Thank you so much, Miss Godfrey.
Agnes.
Agnes. It was my honor.
Is everything all right?
Yeah. It's been a long day, that's all.
Hey, we're going for a walk.
Okay.
And we just got into this huge fight in front of the house about it.
I can't believe he would do that.
And then he said that I'm putting up walls and I won't let anyone pass.
And we just walked away.
That's awful, Isabella.
I'm sorry.
But also, Blake is right about something.
What's that?
You are scared.
Being here is a dream, Iz, and I'm so happy we've been able to experience
But the reason you've been so focused on this love story is because it's safer
than letting anyone in.
What do you mean?
They aren't all duds.
You've been keeping all romance possibilities at a boundary because you
felt you deserve to love this great.
You've been happier than I've ever seen you here.
And it's not because you're closer to the Godfrey's.
No?
It's because of Blake.
And you trusting enough to let your guard down.
That's the only thing I want you to know, Isabella.
You deserve success.
And you deserve love.
Because the Godfrey's don't have anything on you.
Thanks, Kaylee.
Bye.
I still may not go to the gala.
I don't know.
Oh, no.
There's no way you're missing this.
Okay, I'll go.
No, she didn't want to hear any of it.
She never does.
But I know it's just that she's passionate.
Yeah, I'm sorry, Blake.
I did call F &E to say that we wouldn't do it. But they told me they'd suspend
me unless I at least made a mock -up of the scene.
And it was never intended to air.
I should have told you, and I really didn't know what to do.
That's okay, Carl.
I was never going to put that lost letter in the dock anyway.
I mean, I never would after everything.
I just... I don't know.
Maybe she's right. You know, I'm not passionate about anything.
Well, almost.
I don't know.
I just don't know what to do.
I'm all out of answers.
Passion comes from opening up your heart.
And if you block love out of your life, there's no way for either to find its
way in.
I don't think it's any accident that you're here spending all of your time
Isabella.
I don't either.
I mean, for what it's worth, I haven't seen you this inspired in years.
And it's been really good seeing you again.
There you go.
And it sounds like someone inspired by the story they've been searching for.
And by someone. And to me, that's someone who's willing to let love back
his life.
That is the most wonderful thing in the world.
What do you think?
Are you really out of answers when you're filming the truth?
My dearest Josephine, I've discovered my father's treachery.
I know your love for another wasn't real.
I love you more than ever, and I do not care that you've been married.
All I care is that we are together.
Let this serve as a renewal of our secret vows.
We will be together forever.
All my heart, Andrew.
Hi, Abby.
Hi. Didn't expect to see you here.
Well, the mansion's all set for tonight, so I thought I'd take just a little
break before things get started again.
How about you?
Same. I'm just clear in my head.
You look a little troubled.
Is everything okay?
Not really.
Blake and I got into a fight.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
You really seem to care about each other.
What was it about?
We found something.
It was another letter.
Josephine's marriage abroad?
Yeah.
I had no idea. And then we found this other... Frederick's journal.
The marriage certificate is real.
The note and the letter, they're not.
Frederick bribed a lord abroad, and then he forged a note shaming Josephine,
just so he could look better and to keep them apart.
But it didn't work.
Why keep all of this heaven?
To protect Josephine.
She doesn't deserve to be judged by it all.
Abby, I don't know what to do now.
Well, just not to worry. There isn't anything to do.
It ruins the whole...
happily ever after of it all, and I've loved this story my entire life.
Oh, it's hogwash.
It's just a fairy tale.
You see, love prevailed in the end, even though they weren't married officially.
Love is messy, and it can be imperfect, and sometimes there's drama.
But they didn't care.
That's the best part.
And Andrew and Josephine tried to annul the first wedding, but Frederick
wouldn't let it happen.
So they just decided to live their lives together, happily.
Really?
Yeah.
You can't hold out for a perfect romance.
It doesn't exist.
And why would you want it anyways?
Love isn't perfect, and it's okay.
It's still the only thing we're celebrating, always and still.
I love that.
And the funny thing is...
that Josephine's first wedding was never officially ratified.
So in the end, Andrew and Josephine's union was legal, and they never even
it.
That's what's so great about truly wonderful love stories. There's always
to them.
Yeah.
You're right.
Thanks, Abby.
And you know the reason why nobody has seen that dress?
Or the letter yet.
It's just because we haven't figured out how to tell that chapter of the story
yet.
But we will.
I think we're just waiting for the right person to tell the story.
Maybe.
Directive. Who knows?
You know anybody?
And now we are just seconds away from the presentation of the newly designed
dress of Miss Agnes Godfrey.
Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention, please?
Allow me to introduce to you our guest of honor, Agnes Godfrey.
Fit only for table five.
A bulb went out on the east end.
And make sure the upper level is roped off.
Erwin, congratulations.
This is incredible.
It was hectic, but it came together.
More importantly, so did your dress.
I love it.
Well done. Thank you.
Hayley? Irwin loved the dress. Oh, that's great, eh?
But his opinion isn't the one that matters in the end.
Hi, Mia.
So, great gala.
You did great work here. Thank you.
And a very bold move with your dress.
Risks like that can easily backfire.
But... If you continue to make dresses like these, I just might gamble with
I can see you so clearly in this dress, and it is so you, and I just love it.
I'm even calling in favors with the press because I want them to see your
so much.
And from now on, you will be known as one of Magnolia's top designers.
Thank you, Mia. Thank you so much.
I'm just so happy to be a love the dress. I know. That's amazing.
But it looks like there's one more person you have to break the news to.
And I figured something out, too.
I finally found my calling. Yeah?
With your support, I'm going to begin a new career in costume design and... Oh,
really? Yes, of course. I'm so happy for you.
This is wonderful.
Agnes looks great.
Oh, hey, Thaddeus. Thank you.
You know, maybe you and Blake should talk when he's done filming.
I think he's probably working on that piece about the new letter.
No, that wasn't his choice.
He was never going to do that.
But he did make it right.
Really?
You look wonderful. I hope you're having a good time.
I am.
And I look wonderful because of this dress.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
You know, my great -grandmother loved the old red dress that this was based
But now it's got your fur mixed within it.
It's like... It's like her style has been revived in time.
Josephine would have been so proud.
Thank you, Agnes. That means more than you'll ever know.
And from everyone here at the Godfrey Home, we bid you adieu.
And cut.
That was great, man.
All right, man. Hey, uh, could you give me a minute?
Of course, man. Go ahead.
It's all you.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean any of those things I said. You were right.
I was scared.
And I'm sorry, too.
I know that you're not just about the big stories.
and I heard that it wasn't your choice to do the piece on the new letter. It
wasn't. I promise.
They threatened Carl's career. He didn't know what to do.
But don't worry. I fixed it.
I called the network, and I told them they may have that letter, but I'm the
that's finishing the rest of the story.
That's great, Blake.
And your dress looked amazing.
You did such an incredible job. Thank you.
I realized that instead of trying to mimic Josephine's style or create
totally unique to stand out, that I just wanted to celebrate my hero and what I
admired the most about her, which was the feelings that she gave me and her
inspiration. And nothing says that better than turning Godfrey Mansion into
place of happiness and warmth.
I love that.
It's perfect.
And you were right about my block.
I was refusing to let love in.
I was shutting out the most important parts of my work, my life.
But I don't want to do that anymore.
Because being here with you has changed me.
And I don't ever want to go back.
Because I've fallen for you.
And I promise never to close my heart off to you again.
I've fallen for you too.
It seems I may have a new movie for you to direct.
Something we'll both love. Oh yeah.
I like that. Me too.
