I can't believe this is
our last evening together.

Hey, there's nothing
last about this.

You know what I mean.

It'll be a quick four years.

At Duke, maybe while I'm at
culinary school, but then what?

Well, let's see.

I'll come back here, I'll come back to
Indian Lake, figure out how to use my

degree, and you'll... Convince
Mr. Wilson to sell me the old creamery?

Once he tries your cupcakes,
he won't be able to say no.

That's the hope.

And we'll get married.

Here, at the lake.

In the evening?

I have three kids.

I love it.

It's the perfect plan.

Maddie, some people
go their whole lives waiting

to find that one person
they want to grow old with.

I just got lucky
and found you now.

Me too.

What's this?

It's my promise.

It's beautiful.

Yeah, you see?

You can't get rid
of me that easily.

I slaved over these all
day, so you better be happy.

I'm hungry.

Chocolate velvet?

You didn't even let me help.

I had to send you
off with your favorite.

I love you, Maddie.

I always will.

I love you too.

So?

What do you think?

Too sweet?

Not sweet enough?

This one may be my favorite.

Really?

Because I wasn't sure
if I should bring it out

today, but I really want to
showcase something new.

Relax.

You are going to be great.

Well, if not, it's back to
baking in my kitchen again.

Thank you, again.

For setting up this
meeting with the banker.

I love my little cafe, but it's not
going to make it if we can't expand.

Especially with
everything starting to break.

Well, my cousin said, as far as investment
bankers go, he's a real rising star.

She also said he's
very handsome.

And single.

Thank you, Emma.

But I think I'll just focus on
saving my business for now.

If that's okay.

Oh, shoot.

I gotta go.

Thank you.

Delicious.

Okay.

Cupcakes are out.

Business plan is printed.

And why does that
not sound good?

It's choking out a lot of steam.

Is it still making good coffee?

For now.

Let's just focus on
that today, okay?

Well, what about the oven?

Well, what about it?

Last night's batch
cooked quicker than usual.

What if things start to burn?

Okay.

I know the cafe
needs an overhaul.

And hopefully today's meeting
will get us one step closer to that.

But today, let's
just focus on quality.

That's what we're selling.

The rest is just...

logistics.

What are these?

Our new sugar cookie cake.

With brown butter, rosemary,
and pine nut frosting.

You made these last night?

Mm-hmm.

Mm.

How do you do it?

Do what?

Make me feel better.

Oh, it's not me.

It's the cupcake.

Well, and the fresh rosemary.

All right.

Now, let's make a deal.

So, originally this was one space, so we
won't lose any character by opening it up.

We're just gonna gain more seating
and catering and just... everything.

From what you told me on the
phone, this is exactly what I pictured.

Small town, charming.

It's a very different
feel from Chicago.

Well, we really appreciate
you coming all the way out here.

It's only an hour away.

And I am glad I came in person.

This space is really unique.

Yeah, I fell in love with all
these details, and I wanted

to create cupcakes that
would capture that same feeling.

And I grew up around
here, so I know all the

shop owners, which
is always really nice.

Is your family still here?

No, no.

Actually, they moved to
Florida a few years ago, but I...

I never really wanted
to live anywhere else.

Hmm.

You know,
actually, this is, um...

this is the old creamery where
my grandparents had their first date.

And since my grandmother taught me
everything she knows about baking, it just.

well, it seemed perfect.

I think we can use it.

Use it?

How?

Well, if someone wants to
invest in your cafe, they're gonna

want to know that you've
been doing this for a long time.

That's not just some passing phase,
and you're really invested in being here.

Well, I guess I'm
lucky in that respect.

I've known what I
wanted to do since forever.

Now I just gotta keep going.

Oh, gourmet and made-to-order
cupcakes this good?

I don't think you'll
have a problem.

Well, we will if the oven
keeps quitting on us, but the

space is just too limited to
get ahead or even just repair.

So why not a simple
business loan?

Because I've already taken
out too many loans to get this far.

I know that, but the
investors don't have to.

You start with passion,
build in potential.

Passion she can do.

And a cute grandma
story never hurt.

Okay.

So where do we go from here?

I'm gonna run some numbers, contact a few
people, and see if anybody's interested.

How's that sound?

That sounds perfect.

Great.

Oh, wait.

Don't forget your samples.

One of every flavor.

How could I?

I don't want to jinx it, but I
think that went really well.

Don't you?

What?

Oh, nothing.

From a business perspective.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, you know what?

You and your whole passion
comm and get back to work.

Do you really want it
snowing at our wedding?

No, it's just spring is really soon,
and summer's my busy season, so...

But snow, it's just it's
not what I imagined.

I know.

Hi, sorry I'm late.

I had to get the
oven looked at again.

Oh.

Well, don't worry.

You're not even two
minutes late, and I still

haven't decided if I'm
having a salad or a burger.

Oh, no.

Don't tell me you're doing the
no-carb diet now that you're engaged.

Well, considering we
haven't set a date yet.

No.

And even when we do.

No.

Okay.

It's just I don't
want to rush this.

Let me rephrase that.

Just I don't want to
rush the perfect day.

How's that?

Better.

I still can't believe
the girl I played

bride with in fifth
grade is getting married.

Did you remember our veils?

Yes.

Excuse me.

I'm going to take this.

Work calls.

The one we made
out of dish towels?

Yeah.

Those were very chic.

Maybe I should think
about bringing those back.

Maybe it's a good
thing you became an

interior designer and
not a fashion designer.

Hey, I bet I could make an entire
wedding dress out of terry cloth.

Don't freak me out.

Anything bridal freaks you out.

That's not true.

I've pictured my
wedding day before.

Once.

Like a million years ago.

More like ten years ago,
and it's not my fault it fell apart.

I'm sorry.

Okay, I know you don't like me saying
this, but you need to get out there.

You don't want to be my sad single friend
when I'm married with, like, six kids.

I have been out there before.

Plenty.

Okay, maybe not
plenty, but... you know.

You can't keep comparing
everyone to Nate.

What?

This has nothing
to do with Nate.

I haven't seen or
spoken to him in years.

You know that.

Even if I did,
I'd still be fine.

Then why aren't you dating?

Because I've been busy with
the one relationship I can't control.

Oh, please do not tell me that
you were talking about the café.

What?

You do realize how
pathetic that sounds.

Okay, pathetic
may be a tad harsh.

And yes, I do.

That's why I'm going to
order us some burgers.

Good move.

Good move.

Well, I would be lying if I said we
weren't a little surprised to hear you

wanted to bring your
program to Indian Lake.

But we are very
happy to have you.

I couldn't leave my
hometown off the rotation.

Especially if my family
doesn't live here anymore.

Well, Dr. Langston
speaks very highly of you.

He says you're one of
his best new cardiologists.

Hopefully that means
he'll consider me for his

new research program
if the grant goes through.

I'm sure he will.

I don't know.

There's a ton of interest.

But it's all about
standing out, right?

Just like college.

You have to pack on the
extracurricular to get noticed.

So you developed a crash course?

A six-week course.

In clinical communication
after cardiac surgery.

Good bedside
manner is everything.

Especially to the
people you're treating.

But sometimes when you're pushing
for advancement, that can get lost.

Well, I can see why he
speaks so highly of you.

Oh, Nate, this is Charlie Simpson,
one of our best physician's assistants.

Aren't I the only one?

Still the best.

Charlie, this is Dr. Barzoni.

Dr. Barzoni.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Likewise.

Have a seat, Charlie.

Now, Charlie here is going to give you
a quick tour of the hospital, set you up

with corporate housing, show you to
your office, the lecture hall, and more

importantly, our newly
renovated cafeteria.

The kitchen is huge.

That's great.

I know that you grew up here, but we could
also show you around town if you'd like.

That's been a long time.

Probably too long,
so that would be great.

Perfect.

Again, Nate, very
glad you're here.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

I'm not so sure
everyone will be so happy.

Sorry, what?

Oh, nothing.

Ready for your tour?

Yeah.

Maddie, I'm ready for you.

Hi.

Yeah.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm not usually a cake person, but
your maple buttermilk with French

toast flakes may have
just changed my mind.

And location is inspiration.

Well, I just feel it's all
part of the overall feeling,

and that comes out in the
quality of what you bake.

Hmm.

Well, it definitely
sets you apart.

And your vision for
growth is clear here, but...

well, I'm sure Alex has told you
that my time is extremely limited.

At this stage of my
career, I'm only taking

on projects that I feel
very passionate about.

I...

I want to do things that
make people feel good out in

the world and add a bright
spot to their communities.

So I would need to see
that same passion from you.

This is all I ever wanted to do.

And I've poured everything I have
into it, and I don't plan on stopping.

Hmm.

I can see that.

Which is why I'm willing to come
and take a look at your space.

Really?

This is pretty feel-good.

How is...

Monday, week after
next, say, 9 a.m.?

Perfect.

So is this.

I can't believe the investor behind
Equator is coming to Indian Lake.

She's... she's amazing.

I can say the same
thing about you.

She's clearly impressed.

Well, I don't want
to get too excited.

Well, she still has
to look at the space.

Consider franchise
possibilities.

What if I just want to
expand what I already have?

You know, keep
it super personal.

No, just focus on
getting the deal done first.

We'll work out specifics later.

Okay.

Anything else?

Well, you might want to work out some
hard numbers for the expansion and remodel.

She's going to want to
look at your assets, so your

building, your recipes,
your logo, they're all great.

A website would really help.

Other than that, I am
pretty much out of it.

Oh, wow, so... so that's it?

More or less, yeah.

Actually, there is
one more question.

You want more
cupcakes, don't you?

Yes.

Also, I was wondering
what you were doing Friday.

There's an art
opening in the city.

Wait, you said no to him?

I get that you want to focus on work right
now, but I can't believe that you said no.

This is next level.

I can't even get a date.

I just didn't want to mix
business with pleasure.

I thought you said he
was pretty much out of it.

He is.

Look, it's just a
little art opening.

I'm sure he just needed a date.

Oh, yeah, you're right.

He looks like the kind of guy who
would have a very hard time finding one.

That's probably it.

Okay, wait a minute.

Why are we talking more
about Alex rather than the

fact that we are this close
to landing an investor?

You're right.

It is very exciting.

Very.

Thank you.

Can we go back to talking
about your ideas for the remodel?

Fine.

All right, I'll get
us some coffee.

Thank you.

But you are going to run
out of excuses sooner or later.

And, uh-oh, what was that?

Oh, right, you're
going to have to date.

She's right.

You're impossible.

Hey, how are you?

I'm good.

Hey, so what happens
at this Grant Coaster?

For me?

Well, fingers crossed Langston finds
a spot for me on his research team.

Hey, full-time researcher.

Yeah, that's kind of the dream.

But for now.

You're stuck with me.

Yeah.

Although I don't think there's
much else I need to show you, man.

At least not in the nine
months I've been back.

Oh, yeah, I haven't tried this
yet, but I hear they're tasty.

She really did it.

So you two are going
to go see venues?

I'm going to look at venues.

Luke is going to drop me
off on his way back to work.

Right, Luke?

Trust me, I'd
rather go with you.

Mm-hmm.

This new project
sounds pretty intense.

Construction is stressful.

You always say that.

Right.

I just wish he'd slow down
long enough to set a date.

You will.

Unless he's got cold feet.

Oh, please.

He adores you.

You know that.

Besides, he doesn't
look like he has cold feet.

Trust me.

I know.

Then why does he seem perfectly
content staying in the engaged phase?

Because it's a really
nice face to be in.

Maybe you should just enjoy it.

You sound like my mom.

Well, you're right.

I'm just, you know...

You ready?

Yes, I am.

I hope you know your hazelnut cappuccino
cupcakes are what's keeping me going.

My new client is a
bit of a nightmare.

Always here to help.

Right.

See?

I told you.

Work stress.

I'll send pictures.

You better.

Hey, Chloe?

Mm?

I think we need to get
some more honey lavender.

Um, oh, and we only
have two hazelnuts left.

Okay.

And you'd be...

What are you doing here, Nate?

So, you, uh, you're
back in our little town.

For work?

Just for six weeks.

I'm touring different hospitals
with our lecture series.

So you guys do know each other?

We dated.

For seven years.

But four of those
were long distance.

That's still a long time.

A very long time ago.

Can we help you with anything?

Coffee?

Cupcake?

Chloe?

Yeah, um...

Right, yes, that would
be me helping you.

Um, so we have a sugar
cookie cupcake with brown butter.

Well, I can't say no to that.

Great.

I'm Charlie, by the way.

I don't think we've ever met.

I guess not.

I'll get those cupcakes.

Well, I'm not gonna lie to you.

This is a little weird, you
just popping in like this.

Well, I would have called, but
you told me not to, remember?

Could have sent a pigeon.

Look, I'm not proud of
how we ended up here.

I'm proud of how
we ended things.

How I handled it.

We were young.

I just...

Things were just changing
so fast, I got overwhelmed.

You got cold feet.

Okay.

But you were the
one who ended it.

Officially.

I just said what you wouldn't.

I'm sorry, I have
to get back to work.

I just want to hear how you are.

You know, how things have been.

For ten years?

I can't believe
this is your place.

I mean, I can, because
you always knew it would be.

Someday.

It's just...

It's pretty amazing.

Your grandma
would be really proud.

Well, thank you.

At least you got to see it.

I guess that's something.

What do you mean?

Well, we have an
interested investor.

But if that doesn't pan out,
we might not be open for long.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize.

Of course not.

I gotta get back to work.

Are we going?

Not yet.

Oh, am I helping you now?

I'd like to order four
dozen cupcakes, please.

For right now?

If I'm not too late.

Okay.

Hi, Alex.

It's, uh, it's Maddie.

Hey, um, I was
wondering, do you...

Do you still need a
date for Friday night?

You don't think that's too much?

It's an art opening.

In the city.

Give us a tour.

You look perfect.

Thank you.

It's just a friendly
night out anyway.

Plus, he lives in Chicago.

Let's not doom it before
you even get there.

No, I won't.

I'm excited.

And you must be, too, for
the community fundraiser.

I'm excited for the cause.

Not sure about all the work.

Well, I upped your order to include
more of the sugar cookie cakes.

I hope that's okay.

Are you sure you
still want to donate?

I know it's not the
best time money-wise.

Oh, please.

You've had to taste every new cupcake
flavor I've had since I was, what, 13?

It's the least I can do.

Besides, there's so much history in
that community hall for it to be torn down.

Let's hope everyone
feels the same.

Speaking of history, I heard
that Nate Barzoni's backing down.

It's okay to feel
uneasy about it.

I'm fine.

I know, but that doesn't change the fact
that no one ever forgets their first love.

Just remember, it doesn't mean you're
not over them, despite what people say.

It just means they'll
always be a part of you.

Now, let's get you to
the city to have some fun.

Am I entirely sure I know
what that is, but it's impressive.

I think I see a face.

I don't think that's a face.

Well, whatever it is, it's
definitely something functional.

See, this is why you need
to come to the city more.

Why?

So I can help you figure
out what paintings mean?

Yes, and we can go to
more of these together.

Thank you.

So, you really never
wanted to move to the city?

I like to visit, but I really love the
quiet and the community I have.

I find that really sweet.

You've always known
what you wanted.

It took me most of my
twenties to figure that out.

Think of all the time you saved.

Yeah, maybe.

But some things worked
out better than others.

So, you never had a vision of
this, this is what I want to be?

You mean when I grow up?

Yeah.

No, actually, that's not true.

I wanted to be a cashier
at a grocery store.

Really?

Yeah, I thought you got to take home the
money every single night from the drawer.

That's very
entrepreneurial of you.

You've got to keep up
with this lifestyle somehow.

Stay there.

I definitely know what that is.

Just a little something
to say thank you.

For what?

For changing your mind.

I'm really glad this worked out.

Me too.

Good morning.

Hi.

Yeah, I hear that and
I choose to ignore it.

As long as the coffee
still tastes good.

So far?

Great.

Looks like someone
had a good night.

The art was odd.

But kind of amazing.

And your date?

He's very nice.

And?

And I'm just taking it slow.

So you're going
to see him again?

Well, we really didn't
set up a date, but, uh...

Yeah, I think so.

Huh.

Good.

Well, I guess it is
safe to give you this.

And what's this?

Dr. Barzoni.

I'm assuming that's Nate.

He ordered six dozen cupcakes.

Okay.

But he wants them delivered.

Apparently there's some kind
of reception after his first lecture.

That's fine.

He wants you to bring them.

Why do I have to?

Can't you?

Apparently not.

But he promised it would
be good for business.

In our quest to find the most minimally
invasive cardiac surgeries, we've

unfortunately buried
our heads in the sand.

That's why when we step
out from behind the computer

screens, we need to remember
to operate from the heart.

Be human.

Personal.

Compassionate.

Technology can't
provide that for us.

So that's our job.

That's where we start.

Now, since this is our first lecture and
you have willingly signed up to listen to

me drone on for another
five, I want to reward you all

with some local treats from
Cupcakes and Coffee Cafe.

Maddie Strong, the very
talented owner and baker,

has been kind enough
to bring them in herself.

Enjoy.

Hi.

Hi.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Thanks.

Hey.

How are you?

Here you go.

Thanks for coming.

You didn't leave me much choice.

I think you know I would have
placed the order either way.

Well, even though I just had to grab
napkins, the kitchen here is fantastic.

The food is incredible.

My wife has been telling me
about your cupcakes for ages.

They're as good as she said.

Thank you.

It's always a good
idea to listen to the wife.

Maddie.

Yeah.

Hi.

Okay.

These are amazing.

I was just wondering,
do you do parties?

I do.

Of course.

It's my daughter's Sweet
Sixteen, and I think she'd

be quite happy with just
a room full of desserts.

Should I order online, or...?

Well, I'm a bit old-fashioned,
so for now you can just call me.

We can go over the options.

Great.

Dr. Pearson, to physiotherapy.

What?

You're going to make me
the head of the hospital.

Well, I don't know about that, but
at this rate, I'm running out of cards.

You don't have a website?

Don't remind me.

I know it's a good thing for
investors to see, but do you

remember how hard it was
for me to give up my flip phone?

Uh, technology's not
really your strong suit.

And I know you
don't like change.

Well, no, it's not that.

It's just that I haven't really
had time to think about it.

And now I have all this budget stuff
that I have to firm up, and honestly,

I don't know where to start.

And I can't really justify hiring someone
right now, so... Why don't you hire me?

For free.

I'm serious.

You're a doctor.

Who took a lot of tech
classes in undergrad.

I know what you're trying
to do, and I appreciate that.

Okay.

Oh, yeah?

What's that?

Hey, Maddy.

These are great.

Thank you.

See ya.

See ya.

You're trying to make
up for what happened.

Maybe even be friends.

I'm sorry, Nate.

I just can't do that.

Well, at least let me
help with this, then.

It's something I can do.

Want to do.

And we can keep
conversations strictly business.

Well, I'm sure you're
pretty busy with work.

Actually, I'm not.

Really?

You?

You're always busy.

Aside from my weekly meetings.

My weekly lectures.

My schedule is more free
now than it has been in years.

So how about tomorrow night?

I'd say six o'clock.

Pick you up.

Coming.

Hey.

You ready?

Yeah.

Oh, I can't believe they
still have the bambino.

I can't believe you still like
french fries on your pizza.

Well, I don't know.

Maybe my taste has matured.

Thank you.

Mmm.

Mmm.

Still amazing.

And you're a cardiologist.

I'm currently off duty.

Okay, so what else do we need?

Okay.

So how many flavors do you have?

I mean, you clearly took off
my favorite, the chocolate velvet.

Right.

Strictly business.

Fourteen signatures.

But we can do made to order.

So if I wanted a rose petal
cupcake, would you be okay with that?

You can do it.

No.

No?

I mean, I could, but
that sounds terrible.

What?

No, come on.

You put the rose petals on top,
make them into a little ornate flower.

Okay, you did always
have a knack for the details.

Yeah, my vision, your precision.

Remember?

That was your
catchphrase, not mine.

You still remember it.

Catchy.

And you're still a nut.

You know that?

You may be a fancy
doctor, but you're still a nut.

Anything to make you laugh.

Oh, um, sorry, I
really need to get this.

Of course.

Excuse me.

Hello.

Hi.

Yeah, that was definitely fun.

And bizarre, yeah.

Oh, just working on the
proposal and the website.

Okay.

Um, yeah.

Okay, bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Sorry about that, it was just a
quick... No, no, no worries at all.

Okay, so, uh, where were we?

Right.

The website.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, I was thinking, if
it's okay with you, I'll

come by the café and
I'll take some pictures.

Did they teach you photography
in undergrad as well?

No.

No, my iPhone did that.

So, I work on the description.

Okay.

I have a few questions
we talked about.

I'll come by, I'll
take some pictures.

And then start
building your website.

Okay.

You really think we can
have this done by my meeting?

I know it's quick, but...
I'm gonna try my hardest.

Okay.

Thank you.

I'm excited.

You've come a long
way since the flip phone.

I have.

Things have been really
stressful with all of this, so...

Thank you for making it fun.

You were always
really good at doing that.

Hopefully I still am.

It really is nice to
see you, Maddie.

It's nice to see you too.

Really?

Well, maybe we should
keep this party going, then.

Go for a hike,
just like old times?

Don't push it, Barzoni.

Okay.

I'm going.

I'm leaving.

Very business-like.

I should let you go.

Well, thanks again.

I really think it's
gonna be great.

Me too.

Okay.

So this was definitely not
here when I was growing up.

It's the first place I came
to and I moved back.

It's the easiest
thing to do alone.

Especially when I realized most
people I knew had moved away.

So how does it feel being back?

It feels okay, mostly.

Just a little complicated.

Is it because of Maddie?

Sorry.

It's okay.

I'm the one that messed up.

We had our whole
lives mapped out, but...

I guess work took over.

It still feels like there's
something there, man.

Unfortunately, I don't think you get
another shot at something that great.

Let me get us some water.

Sure.

For the interior, that's
as low as I can go.

And I'll have Luke
send you his quote.

But knocking walls
down is fairly simple.

Great.

Thank you.

I just need to make sure I keep
everything as tight as possible.

So, do you feel better now?

Much.

You?

About what?

Luke?

Uh, well... He said he's gonna talk
to the country club this week, so...

You may be one step closer
to that poofy lavender dress.

Oh.

Well, it's too bad I
don't have it for tonight.

I still don't know
what I'm gonna wear.

Big work party.

Hate to say it, but it
sounds kind of official.

It's not official.

Alex is just...
Hard up for a date.

Again.

Yeah, exactly.

Plus, I have to leave early,
so it's gonna be a short night.

What?

Why would you do that?

Leave early?

Oh, because I still have to
bake six dozen cupcakes.

For tomorrow?

For Emma's fundraising?

You remember.

And now I have to finish the proposal
now that I have all these numbers.

Good.

For a second, I thought it might
have something to do with Nate.

What?

Why?

Why would I say I have
anything to do with Nate?

I don't know.

You've been spending a
lot of time with him lately.

Yes, on the website.

That's it.

Plus, it's almost over, so...

Okay, stop.

You know, just gather
all your swatches.

I'm starving.

Let's go to lunch.

So, it's New Year's Eve.

The ball's about to drop, and he's
still trying to close one last deal.

You're a hard worker.

I just think he likes his year
end above everyone else.

I got the deal signed, didn't I?

Excuse me.

You okay?

I'm sorry.

You seem a little quiet.

Me?

Oh, sorry.

You guys were just talking
about deals, and all that's

running through my mind is,
am I even ready for Monday?

Are my descriptions good
enough for the website?

And then there's the
whole franchise thing.

I still don't know what to do.

You're going to be great.

All you have to remember
is, it's all about selling yourself.

You talk a big game, and
there's no way they can say no.

What if I'm not good at that?

That's all part of the game.

What's that saying?

Fake it until you make it.

Well, again, not really
my style, but, um, I'll try.

Okay.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

That's a little something
I like to call dancing.

It's your game?

Our goal is to restore what's
been damaged and breathe

new life into this beautiful
old community hall.

So, dig deep and
make Indian Lake proud.

Thank you all for coming.

Okay, I think that's
the last sketch.

Do you need anything else?

No, I think I'm good.

Okay, then I should
get back to work.

Oh, actually, did you call
Tim at the country club?

Oh, right.

Uh, no.

I will call right now.

Luke, they only have a few free
dates left for weddings this year.

And he's your connection?

I'm sorry.

I will call.

Okay?

I promise.

It just slipped my mind.

Every time I try to make plans.

You know, forget it.

This isn't the place and
you need to go to work.

Okay.

Love you.

I'll call right now.

Okay.

Okay!

So does anybody want to see
the plans for the community hall?

I would.

Nate Barzoni.

I was wondering when I
was going to run into you.

It's good to see you, Sarah.

Is it?

Because if I were you, I'd be
the last person I'd want to see.

That's fair.

No, don't worry.

Do you really want
to see those plans?

Yeah.

I do.

So, how was your night?

It was nice.

But exhausting.

But nice.

I don't know how he does it.

Everything is
always so... fancy.

Well, he's a money guy.

More of a pizza and a movie
on the couch kind of girl.

And sweats.

Well, maybe you can be both.

Oh, no.

What?

Not again.

What?

What's going on?

Why are you hiding?

I'm not hiding.

I... I'm just a total cliche.

What?

What are you talking about?

Do you know him?

Know him?

No.

But did I have a huge embarrassing
crush on him in high school?

Yes.

I was the awkward nerd.

He was captain of
the football team.

See what I'm saying?

Total cliche.

That is so cute.

Cute?

Yeah.

He didn't even know I existed.

Wow.

He does now.

Okay.

I'm going to go pick up that box of
spiced yam and I'm going to be right back.

Okay?

Okay.

That was incredibly awkward.

I'd actually say
you're a real hit.

Your cupcakes are almost gone.

He's still a good guy.

Yeah.

Unfortunately.

He's been a huge help with the website
and... No one tells you how to handle this.

After all these years,
there's no rule book.

You know, I've spent
a lot of time lately

talking to people about
the old community hall.

People with very strong opinions
about how it should be restored.

But the way I see it, I
just need to acknowledge

what it was and enjoy
it for what it is now.

There is no rule.

You just have to
do what feels right.

Thank you.

Okay.

We have a dozen cupcakes left.

We can do this.

Let's do it.

Cupcakes.

Yeah.

Here we go.

I have to say, I'm
even impressing myself.

Well, we've got three more
to go, so knock yourself out.

Yeah, you know what's missing?

Don't you dare say
chocolate velvet.

No.

No, I wasn't going to say it.

I wasn't even
thinking it at all.

Oh, I can't believe it's
all happening tomorrow.

I feel sick to my stomach.

And I don't even know what to
say about this whole franchise thing.

It's a lot of pressure.

Just be true to yourself.

And know that you're going to
have a killer website to show.

Maybe not until
2 a.m., but still.

I still can't believe that
these are from your phone.

They're beautiful.

Just wait until I'm
done editing them.

Wait, what are you doing?

No, stop.

See?

Beautiful.

Nate.

Okay.

I know.

I know.

Back to work.

That's what's fun, man.

See?

Okay?

Walk aerobatically!

Let's start.

I woke up at one time.

Hey, it's been a while.

Are you sweating.

Nope.

Wait, what?

Oh.

I can close the window.

Okay now, close it.

I'll görün at you then.

No.

He won't let me
close the window?

At least he'll tell
me, won't he?

You know what I was thinking?

That was way too
easy to sneak up on you.

Good morning.

Morning!

How long have you been here?

Do you really want to know?

Wow, I thought I was early.

Smells amazing in here.

Well, I decided to make
a dozen maple butter milk.

That's her favorite and
she's getting plenty of it.

And then, three dozen
of everything else.

Have you slept at all?

Oh no, I could sleep tomorrow.

Today, Christine Benoit is coming to the
café and everything needs to be perfect.

I don't look tired, do I?

You look great.

So, what can I do for you?

Oh, yes.

Um, can you go
check on the cupcakes?

I'm just looking over the
business plan one more time.

I'm on it.

Oh no.

What?

What's wrong?

It's the cupcakes.

They're a little burnt.

What?

No, not burnt.

Crispy.

Crispy.

Just crispy.

They can't be crispy.

They're cupcakes.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I don't know what to say.

Oh no, no, no.

I'm sorry.

It's that oven.

I need to redo them.

Redo all of them?

Where?

How?

At home.

What other choice Nate?

It's me.

Um, I know it's early and I hate
to ask, but I really need your help.

Okay, so we need to make six dozen
cupcakes for the cafe and another four for

the super important investor who's
probably already on her way and I don't

even think there's
enough time in this timer.

Okay, stop.

Deep breath.

We got this.

We got plenty of space.

Maddy?

Yeah, I'm just screaming inside.

Just a little bit.

Better?

Mm-hmm.

We got this.

We can do this.

There's

no distance in between.

Darling, you and me.

Make this thing complete.

We go drifting out to sea.

Making memories.

Yeah, honey's always so sweet.

You're always hold on to me.

Praying I won't move along.

I'll always hold on.

Hoping you'll miss
me when I'm gone.

So won't you follow me?

Follow me.

So won't you follow me?

You were right.

This space is a total lifesaver.

Thank you.

And your French toast
flakes are pretty perfect.

Maybe I should
reconsider my profession.

I still can't believe
you're a cardiologist.

I mean, that's insane.

Would it be any more insane if I told
you that my heart really lies in research?

Did you just make a
really bad medical pun?

Maybe, but I love it.

Did you know there's this small town
in Italy where nobody has heart attacks?

No one.

It's crazy how much
you can learn from that.

And it's even crazier to think that if
this grant goes through, there's going to

be a whole new research program
for people like me to geek out on.

What?

And just think, at 18 you
were gunning for advertising.

I'm pretty sure that
thing dings when it's time.

Oh, yeah, I just can't risk
burning any more cupcakes today.

Want me to do the
cinnamon crumble?

Wow, you remember all
this like it was yesterday.

I was your stand-and-sue
chef for how many years?

Still, it was a long time ago.

Some things you never forget.

I'm sorry, Maddy.

For everything.

You know what?

It's fine.

We're fine.

Are we?

Well, no.

Not if you keep
distracting me like this.

I gotta get those
out of the oven.

You were right.

They're pretty perfect.

So, we're really fine?

Well, fine-ish.

Does this mean that we
can officially be friends now?

Oh, come on.

It's a small town.

You're gonna have to
see me around anyway.

Okay, I guess we
can give it a go.

Really?

Under one condition.

Less talking, more frosting.

We gotta get back in an hour.

Where's my spatula?

Over there.

Grab it.

Ugh, Nate.

I'll admit, I was a little
nervous when she called you.

I'm just nervous you're
gonna take my job.

Impossible.

But I do think it
went pretty well.

Oh, this is not good.

Please don't say that.

What's wrong?

I didn't think about the time.

What do you mean?

It's too quiet in here.

No one gets a cupcake at 9
o'clock on a Monday morning.

Why did I say yes to 9?

She's a smart woman.

I'm sure she knows that.

Besides, it's not like there's
a lot of seating in here.

You only get one shot at this.

I think you're right.

We need warm bodies in
here, or it might look kinda sad.

Okay, Nate.

Can you just stay
here and drink coffee?

It's one of the beauties of
only having one lecture a week.

I got plenty of time to loiter.

I'm gonna call Sarah,
see if she can come down.

We're only two people.

I don't think that's
gonna do much.

Do you have a better idea?

Who wants a free cupcake?

Great.

Alright,

everyone have a seat.

Cupcake's on me.

Hi, Christine.

Welcome.

Thank you.

Okay, be honest.

Is it too early
for a fresh lunch?

Maple buttermilk cupcake?

Ooh.

Not if it comes with a
very strong side of coffee.

Well, I'm on it.

I'm going to take a look around.

Excuse me.

It's good to see you, Meg.

Good to see you, too.

So, you're really trying
this whole friends thing out?

I just... I want
what's best for her.

I hate to say it, I
kinda believe you.

How long are you in town for?

Sorry, what?

This is a temporary
work stop, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess it is.

Christine, please,
right this way.

Let me show you.

The ovens and the coffee maker have been
really kind to us through the years, but.

their days are
definitely numbered.

Ah, so, new equipment.

Yes, that's our first priority.

I don't get it.

Well, it's good to see that it's
so busy, even in the morning.

Actually, lunch and after school is our
busiest time, but today's been a good day.

Anything else I should know?

Well, the website is
up, as of late last night,

and I have to say, it
looks pretty amazing.

Great.

Well, send me a link
and I'll check it out.

Okay.

It's all updated in the proposal,
along with the numbers.

My best friend is an interior designer,
so we would be in good hands.

And her fiancé is a contractor.

So, easy for an expansion
here, but in terms of franchising...

I'm sorry.

Can I... can I be
completely honest with you?

You know I appreciate that.

If the right place comes
along, something exciting like...

like this, of course I'd
be open to a franchise.

But, for now, I just really
want to improve the original.

Keep the personal touch.

So, I just can't promise
you anything beyond that.

Not until I'm a hundred percent.

Well, it's probably not what I would have
said, but I am about bigger and better.

She seemed to really
admire your integrity.

Well, I guess we'll
see by this weekend.

Hey, we should
celebrate tonight.

Tonight?

Yeah.

Don't you think it's
a little premature?

You put it all out there.

You worked hard.

I think that's
something to celebrate.

Don't you?

Unless you've got other plans.

Hey.

Hey.

Uh, no.

Okay.

Great.

I'll send a car for you at five.

Sounds perfect.

You didn't have to bring
me all the way to Chicago.

I would have been fine
with pizza or anything, really.

It's a celebration, isn't it?

How do you feel about oysters?

Excuse me.

Could we start with a dozen baking
oysters, the tuna tartare, and the rest?

We are still deciding.

Thank you.

Wow.

Fancy.

Well, if I had more time, I would
have made reservations at La Colonia.

No.

No, no, no.

This is perfect.

I'm still underdressed,
so... You are...

perfect.

To Eddie, very good day.

And a very promising start.

To the venture.

To everything.

Especially us.

Am I losing my mind?

I want to feel something.

I do.

I just... I also feel like
we're really different.

And, you know, the
timing is all wrong.

I just... I need to
focus on the café.

I don't think the café has
anything to do with this.

Oh, no.

This has nothing
to do with Nate.

We're just friends.

Besides, that's another
impossible situation.

So, you don't want
to be with him?

Maybe I need to stick
to the original plan.

Focus all my energy into work.

That'll work out better.

I wish it were that easy.

What?

Deciding when and where
you want to fall in love?

I'm not falling for Nate again.

I know.

That's because you never fell
out of love with him in the first place.

I just didn't
realize it until now.

Focus, Maddy.

Just... just focus.

This is going to be
the perfect wedding.

I really like this venue.

Oh,

this is even better
than I remember.

Yeah, the pictures you sent were
great, but in person it's stunning.

That was nice.

Still no word from Christine?

Mm-mm.

Well, don't worry.

It's still early.

So?

What do you think?

This place?

Eh, could work.

Work?

Are you serious?

This is our wedding day.

It needs to do
more than just work.

Actually, I... I should
get back to the bakery.

You call me?

Luke.

I love you.

I do.

You say that nothing's
going on, but something is.

So you need to figure it out.

Because I don't want
to feel this way anymore.

No, nothing...

She said she'd
call by the weekend.

And it's almost 5 o'clock.

Well, it is Friday.

Maybe she's busy.

Or she's about to
leave for the weekend.

I think I'll call her.

Don't you think
that's a little...

Okay, it's not pushy.

It's just, uh, assertive.

Hi.

This is, uh, Maddy
Strong for Christine Benoit.

Hey, I was just
going to call you.

Hi.

I'm so sorry to bother you.

I just... I didn't want to miss
you before the weekend.

Oh, no, no.

I've already come
home for the weekend.

It's fine.

You're anxious.

I get it.

So I will make this as quick
and painless as possible.

I took a look at your
website, and, well, I love it.

It's artistic and easy to
use, which is a bonus for me.

And as much as my brain naturally
wants to franchise, I think you're right.

We should elevate what you already
have, expand next door, and, uh...

We'll see where we
want to go from there.

Really?

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

Bye.

Well, we got it.

We got the deal!

This is so exciting!

Oh, I know!

And she said she
loved the website, too.

Okay, we have to celebrate.

What do you think?

Champagne at the Horizon?

Or pizza at Lou's?

Or you want to thank
somebody for their help?

What?

What are you talking about?

He was the first person
you called after all

these years, and he
was right there for you.

I love you, Maddie, but
you don't need to know

where everything is
going before you get there.

He's not gonna be here forever.

As doctors, we're lucky.

We have a family, a community.

We feel linked by what we do.

But not everyone has that.

Not everyone has
that special someone.

Or maybe they did,
and they lost them.

Either way, while they're
under our care, our patients

need to feel like they're
a part of our community.

And if you ask me, Indian Lake is a
pretty amazing community to be a part of.

Thank you.

You're getting pretty
good at this lecturing thing.

You got it, didn't you?

You got the deal?

Yes.

Hey, you, uh, still
up for that hike?

Yes.

Yeah?

One hundred percent.

What's in the bag?

You'll see.

Okay.

Don't worry about it.

All these years
later, it's still perfect.

That's why this is it.

Is what?

The inspiration for the cafe.

I remember coming out here
for a hike not too long after

we broke up, so the lake
was a little hard for me still.

Then I got here,
and it surprised me.

This view, this spot.

It's beautiful.

And that's when it hit me.

I could still have my dream
right here in Indian Lake.

So you decided to go for it?

Yeah.

I started saving
up the next day.

Baking out of my kitchen.

Selling anywhere I could.

I didn't think you could
get any more amazing.

But you have.

I don't know about that.

I do.

You got me a cupcake.

Not just any.

Chocolate velvet?

This is the best thank you ever.

Sorry.

I just...

These last few weeks, I
didn't expect to feel all this.

But it's all still right there.

I know.

You do?

Really?

Well, what if this
is just nostalgia?

What we're feeling?

Then we'll find out.

I know it's a lot to process.

I just want to spend
more time together.

I can still picture
growing old with you.

That's never changed
after all these years.

It just took me coming
back here to finally realize it.

You only have two
more weeks of work.

Maybe I can stay on...

Don't say that, Uno...
Not if you don't mean it.

There's some cardiologists here.

They've already mentioned it.

I just have to find the
right moment to bring it out.

What do you say?

Can we at least try?

And see?

I think that's a
great direction to go.

Hi.

Hi, Steven.

You signed the deal, didn't you?

Construction starts next week.

Can you believe it?

That is amazing.

Maddie, congratulations.

I think we should
really celebrate now.

Like Colonial?

I'm sorry, Alex.

I just wanted to come
talk to you in person.

You just want pizza?

Look, you're amazing.

And you deserve someone
who wants what you want.

Who loves what you love.

I just don't think
that that's me.

It's okay.

I get it.

I'm sorry.

Well, some things just
work out better than others.

Right?

Yeah, I guess they do.

Will you still be able to come to
the reopening, whatever that is?

Yeah.

I will try.

How's that?

That's good.

Bye.

Hi.

How are you?

Good.

Morning.

Welcome.

Just pass that down over there.

I can't believe the
walls are coming down.

It's all happening.

It certainly is.

I am so happy for you.

Well, the big reopening is
gonna be a bit coming out for you.

It's gonna look amazing.

I meant about that.

Oh.

Do you think I'm crazy about
giving him another chance?

I mean, I don't know how
it's gonna go, but... Hey.

Are you happy?

I am.

Then trust in that.

Well, I should say
the same to you.

I think it's time to
break the ground.

Is that the right saying?

I don't know.

Okay.

It's amazing.

You don't even need coffee here.

Cold air just
wakes you right up.

Forgot how much I missed that.

Oh, I need coffee.

Lots of coffee.

You look happy today.

Trying to say I don't
look happy other days?

You know what I mean.

Must be all that good
pizza I've been eating.

Yeah.

Somehow I don't
think that's what it is.

You know what?

You're right.

It's not.

Dr. Caldwell.

Nate.

Sorry.

I was hoping I could talk
to you about something.

It's important.

Well, great timing.

I'm sorry?

Well, I want to talk to you
about something as well.

The grant went through.

For Dr. Langston's
research program.

He's asking for you
in Boston right away.

So he just called this morning?

He said he wanted to run it by me
first just to make sure I was okay with it.

With my leaving early?

Just cutting your course
a week short so that

you can take advantage
of this great opportunity.

Now, Phil will give you all
the details this afternoon.

Nate, you deserve this.

I just never thought that
this would happen so soon.

Well, it has.

And as long as you're willing
to start pretty immediately.

How immediately?

Training starts Monday.

Monday?

Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

This is just not how I
thought today was going to go.

Wait.

You said you wanted to talk to me
about something as well, didn't you?

I did.

So what is it?

What do you think?

You look beautiful.

Beautiful.

About the cupcake.

It might be a tad sweet.

Thank you.

For always being honest with me.

About everything.

Hi.

Hi.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I'm serious.

This is the first hot dog
I've had since med school.

We really ate them every night?

Maybe every other night.

I mean, I was so busy, I just thought,
what can I grab in ten seconds or less?

This.

You've always
been a hard worker.

Sometimes too hard.

Mattie Strong.

What on earth are
you doing here?

And with Nate Barzoni?

You didn't know we were coming.

Of course I did.

I talk to her every day.

Where's Luke?

Hey.

Sorry, I just got off work.

Can we talk?

Excuse me.

Okay.

So, what do you want to do?

You want to do chocolate bananas
or you want to keep it savory?

Yeah.

Follow me.

Okay.

Look, I know you're
frustrated with me, and I get it.

But my parents have been
together for over 36 years.

But what does that
have to do with us?

I've always wanted
what they had.

But they had a really
long engagement.

So maybe subconsciously
I wanted the same thing.

I don't know.

It doesn't matter now.

Why?

Because I've already
found what they have in you.

So if we get married tomorrow
or next summer, it doesn't matter.

We'll figure it out.

Now call me crazy, but I've never
actually had a persimmon cupcake before.

But I'd be willing to try.

As long as you don't run
away from me this time.

I haven't been running away.

Okay, maybe a little.

But at least I remembered you.

Go Wildcats!

Wait, did we go to
high school together?

Still not ringing a bell.

The truffles were good, but it's hard
when your cupcakes are so much better.

You're just saying that.

What can I say?

I'm a fan.

Is this for us?

Sorry.

I couldn't resist.

I just didn't realize we were
going to eat so much on our route.

Here.

Sit.

Thank you.

I guess I just want to
say thank you to you, too.

These last few weeks
have been everything to me.

And I'm going to do everything
I can to keep that going.

But?

Something came up this morning.

I thought you went
to talk to Dr. Caldwell.

I did.

And I know this may not
sound great, but you remember

that research program
I was telling you about?

The...

The huge grant that they were
applying for just went through.

Okay.

And Dr. Langston wants
me to be a part of his team.

But it means I
would have to leave.

Monday.

Leave?

To... to go where?

Boston.

Are you serious?

So you...

You go in to talk about
staying here and...

You come out leaving on Monday?

I didn't say yes.

But you're going to, aren't you?

I don't know.

I feel so stupid.

I should have known
this would happen.

What are you talking about?

The minute I let you in again,
you find a reason to leave.

That is not true.

Oh yeah?

Then why are we in the same
spot we were ten years ago?

I need to go.

I wasn't looking
for this, Maddy.

I wasn't looking to leave.

You never are.

I don't know what to do.

This is an opportunity
of a lifetime.

And I'm not?

I love you, Maddy.

And I love you too.

That's why...

I want you to do what
you were meant to do.

I love you, too.

And I'll do the same... here.

Well,

I've loved you more than I've ever known
But all I ask of you is that we could grow

Alright, I'm just going
to come out and say it.

The air's not going to be half
as clear where you're going.

You know what?

You're probably right.

You sure you have to go?

It appears so.

Well, it's been a
pleasure, Dr. Barzoni.

Even if you're
bailing on us early.

You need to start
calling me Nate.

Okay, Nate.

Well, you know where to find
us if you ever want to come back.

One more thing.

I know you're shy, but you
should just ask her out already.

Who, Chloe?

You don't want to
miss something great.

Dr. Barzoni, someone
left this here for you.

Oh, when?

This morning.

You did such a good job.

This looks amazing.

So good.

It turned out great.

Oh, it did.

It really did.

Wow.

Wow.

And I still can't believe you
warmed up to a winter wedding.

I'll admit, it's not exactly what I
pictured, but it does feel pretty perfect.

Even with snow.

Hey, do you think you could
spare six hazelnut caps to go?

Well, our reopening
isn't until tomorrow,

so I think you can have
as many as you like.

I think we'll stick to six.

Hey, for the record,
they're not all for me.

Oh, no.

What can I say?

Wedding planning is stressful.

They really help.

Oh.

Um, I'm sorry.

So am I.

Hey, Chloe?

Hmm?

Can you put six hazelnut
cappuccinos to go, please?

Yes.

I've always prided
myself on overtime, but if

you keep up these hours,
you might just lap me.

It's just an old habit, I guess.

So, are you settling in nicely?

I'm adjusting.

But do you like it here?

That's a very different thing.

I'm sure I will.

Eventually.

Well, with all the work
we have on our plate, I'm

sure you won't even
notice one way or the other.

Yeah, that's the problem.

Are you okay?

Not sure that I am.

Here we go.

Yeah.

Oh, the place looks great.

It's almost time
to officially reopen.

Let's get this party started.

Yeah.

Oh, well, I can't believe you
turned me into a cake person.

This looks great.

Well, it's all because of you.

Money is not what
made this place great.

You and I both know that.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

Yeah, of course.

This is great.

The channel?

They're delicious.

Um, hey, excuse me.

I gotta go to sleep.

You bet.

I am very pleased.

You're right.

I didn't remember
you from high school.

Oh.

Okay.

But I have not been
able to stop thinking

about you since the
day that I walked in here.

I just didn't know
how to say that.

Until now.

So, I was wondering if maybe
you'd want to start over again?

From, like, now.

Hi, I'm Chloe.

I'm Charlie.

You look beautiful.

The place looks amazing.

I can't do this again.

Me neither.

That's why I'm here.

I told you I won't
do long distance.

I know.

That's why I'm here.

For good.

What are you talking about?

I know I said that
it was a dream job.

I was wrong.

It doesn't mean anything if the
life that I want is here with you.

But you just started.

They have plenty of
amazing replacements.

And my lectures went
over really well here.

So...

So...

I... offered you a job?

And I accepted.

See?

Told you you wouldn't
get rid of me that easily.

This...

This is everything that I want.

And if you'll have me...

I promise I'll spend the rest of
my life making sure you feel that.

It was always you, Manny.

What are you doing?

I think you may
have misplaced this.

Just think.

I need your tech support.

I do need that.

You're a sous chef?

Only in a pinch.

What do you say?

Can we do this?

All in?

Yes.

Yes.

It's always been a gift.
