Ellen down at the nursery grew it for us.

It will one day be an original O'Reilly apple tree.

Oh, that's kind of cool, but how?

Those trees haven't grown for like 40 years.

Let's ask science, shall we?

You see, I just need to graft a twig

from an original O'Reilly apple onto here...

and boom!

It becomes an O'Reilly, too.

That's kinda Frankenstein-ey, but kind of awesome, too.

- Yeah!

Come, let's go find a twig from an O'Reilly varietal.

I'll explain the rest on the way.

weren't you?

Cells near the junction adhere to opposing tissue

Ruby: [over the phone] Hey, Dad.

You sound weird.

- No, no, I'm fine.

Are you okay?

Ruby: Not really.

- What?

Ruby: This wish is taking a really not good turn.

- Oh, no.

- I'm a bit shaken up.

Can we talk?

- Okay, yeah.

I'll be right there.

[phone clicks off]

Ruby: So the well goes,

"I wish I could just spend time with her."

Only, how do we do that if she's not alive?

All I could do is break the wisher's heart

and the family's hearts into, like, 11 different pieces.

- Wow.

This is a rough wish.

- And it keeps getting rougher.

Why?

Shouldn't I be getting better at this?

- Well, look, this isn't a spat between a couple of teenagers

or some stolen academic credit,

this is life and death.

- I know.

I-

[inhales deeply]

- So?

- So Officer Clark needs to know what we think happened.

- And then it's up to him.

He can do what he wants with it.

- So, I have to tell him.

Um, maybe we could tell him?

- Of course.

Ruby: Yeah, so um, people needed basics, you know?

Food, shelter, clean water.

And, uh, engineers

who know how to show people how to do that for themselves.

Like, filter their water.

- Kendra.

- So, um, it, might be possible that if she was down there

that, well, there were some pretty bad aftershocks.

- Ruby.

Ruby: Plus some brutal landslides, and-

- Don't.

Just, stop.

Ruby: But, I thought you'd wanna know that-

Officer Clark: What do you know?

You've been looking for, what, two days?

I've been looking for years.

I'm an officer of the law.

You're a kid.

Ruby: Look, I-I'm, I'm sorry.

I didn't think that I would find her like this,

but I know you wanna to spend more time with her,

so I just need something else to go off of.

Vince: [firmly] No.

I asked you to stop.

[door opening]

Ruby: That was rough.

Daniel: Yeah.

Ruby: Maybe rough isn't the right word.

More, arduous.

- Yeah.

- So what if I'm wrong.

I mean, Officer Clark has been working on this

a lot longer than I have.

- Yeah.

- Thanks, Dad.

Really enjoying your syllables.

And it still doesn't connect with the wording of the wish.

"I wish I could just spend time with her."

- Maybe you need to confirm Kendra's death

before you do anything else.

- But how?

Officer Clark is obviously hurting,

and I don't want to do any more damage.

Uh, the thing I don't get is that ho-

Hey, Dad, is this Grandpa O's phone number?

- Yeah.

- Uh, why does it have the 353 in front of it?

Is it because he's in Ireland?

- Yeah, he's doing his mystery tour

of the old country.

Have to dial the country code

or else some guy in Nebraska wants to know

what I want on my pizza.

- I have to go talk to Mina and Sam, right now.

Call Grandpa and say thanks.

We're looking for a missing volunteer,

Probably would've arrived a week after the first quake.

Do you guys have any information?

We, we had students come

You said you're looking for Canada?

Uh, yeah, there is a Kendra, but no last name.

- Era un estudiante de ingeniería.

Le gustaba la música y la ciencia

y nos contó que tenía un hermanito.

Man 4: Uh, yes, we remember engineering student Kendra.

She liked music and science?

- Yes!

Man 4: And she had a little brother.

- Yes!

Man 4: And, yeah, we have stories

Woman 3: No hablaba mucho de si misma.

No tenía ni su apellido para poder contactar

a su familia.

- But nobody knew her last name or where she was from.

She didn't talk about herself much,

so we had no family contact.

- Pero está con nosotros siempre, ah?

¡En nuestra pared de héroes!

Kendra.

Man 4: But she's always with us on our wall of heroes.

- Wall of heros?

someone who listens and someone who cares.
