she was 6,000 miles away. So for whatever reason,

she never made it back to New York.

- Because that's what Gideon was supposed to do.

He was supposed to make sure she was here,

but he walked away,

and Audrey never got to say good-bye.

[dramatic music]

[inquisitive music]

- We need to figure out a way to help Audrey find closure.

- I mean, look, Miles, we don't know anything about

her relationship with her father.

I mean, if August was in the hospital for weeks,

chances are she knew he was sick,

so why didn't she come back to New York?

- Wait, you think she stayed away on purpose?

- I don't know, but I think there's a good chance that--

it's not that simple. Something else is going on.

- Yeah, I think she might be right.

Audrey's AI program was designed to paint.

In order to do that, she had to teach it.

So when she gave me access to her program,

I found she had used hundreds of paintings as reference.

- And?

- They all belong to the same artist:

Her father.

- It's like she's trying to keep his memory alive.

Clearly, she hasn't gotten over his death.

- Maybe, but August died five years ago.

We can't change that.

- No, no, but we can change

how she feels about it.

[sighs]

[keypad clicking]

[line trilling]

- This is Audrey. Leave message.

- Hey, Audrey, it's Miles.

There's, uh, something I want to talk to you about.

You give me a call back when you get this message?

Once I hear back from Audrey, I'll let you know.

- It is

in this lesson...

that we are

reminded...

of life's journey.

We must not only trust that God will put us

on the right path...

but that He'll give us the strength to walk it.

- Proverbs 16:9,

but the story misses the point.

- And that is?

- That we don't have to walk this path alone.

- And what brings you back down here?

- [chuckles]

[sighs]

Actually, it's Trish.

- Ah.

- She reached out to me.

She's back in the city, and she wanted to meet,

so, I did. - [sighs]

And... [clears throat]

What did she say?

- She wanted to know if I thought

you could make this work.

- Of course I can.

I told her as much on the phone.

- Yes, I get that, but

when I talked to her, I got the sense she was not sold.

- [mutters]

I will have to convince her. - Yeah.

- If she's in the city, then there's still hope.

- Mm-hmm.

- Thanks, Miles. You know I feel like--

one of your Friend Suggestions. - Trust me,

what you're going through with Trish,

at least there's a solution.

What I got going on with the God Account, I am not so sure.

- Wanna talk about it?

- When Gideon walked away from the God Account,

he never helped his last Friend Suggestion.

As a result, she never got a chance to say good-bye

to her father before he died.

- I see, and who was the Friend Suggestion?

- Her name is Audrey Grenelle. - Grenelle?

I--I recognize that name.

About five years ago, I was visiting a church member

at the hospital, and while I was there,

I was asked to deliver last rites to a man

and his name was August Grenelle.

- That's Audrey's father.

- The only reason I remember is that the room

was filled with these beautiful paintings.

Apparently, he was an artist,

and his name just stuck with me.

- Did he say anything before he died?

- No, um, sorry. He--he wasn't alert.

But if it'll bring Audrey any comfort,

he didn't die alone. There was a--a woman with him.

I don't remember her name, but it was clear

that he meant a lot to her.

- Whoever that is, she could be the key to helping Audrey.

- So we have to figure out who it is.

- Yes, but first...

there's someone I need to talk to.

[bright music]

- So how are your plans for Jaya's birthday going?

- Great, actually.

I just want everything to be perfect.

- Yeah, of course.

I mean, cannot imagine how difficult it must be

keeping your relationship a secret.

- Honestly, I don't know what we were thinking.

- Well, you were thinking that--you love each other,

and you would do anything to protect that.

- You okay?

What's going on?

- Gideon told us that before he walked away

from the God Account, it left him a message about

what he'd need to sacrifice one day.

It said that he'd have to give up love and walk alone.

- Which is why Miles is throwing himself

into helping Audrey so he doesn't have to think about it.

But you are. - How can I not?

And if it comes to it,

do you think Miles would make the same choice?

- No, but I don't think he'll have to.

Like, the God Account sent you to New York five years ago

to meet Miles and become a team,

and the moment you left, it sent Miles to Paris

to bring you back. It wants you together.

What Gideon said, that's about his path.

Alright?

You guys get to choose your own.

[chortles] It's Jaya. She wants to meet.

I'll admit-- secret get-togethers...

♪

Don't suck. - [chuckles]

- Miles...

What are you doing here?

- I know what you were supposed to do five years ago.

You were supposed to make sure that Audrey Grenelle

saw her dad before he died.

She never did.

- Sorry, but I can't change that.

- No--no, but there may be a way to fix it.

Look, I know you don't wanna get involved again,

but I do not believe the God Account brought us together

to tear you away from your family.

- I can't take that chance. - You said...

you have been feeling lost

ever since you started thinking about the God Account again,

and then we showed up to your door

and led you to Audrey Grenelle.

I think if you help her...

you will be able to move on, once and for all.

- Gideon, honey, what's going on?

- Erica, this is Miles.

- Gideon told me about you.

I know you've been struggling with this,

but you promised me you weren't going to get involved.

- I'm not. - [scoffs]

What's he doing here?

I guess I have my answer.

- Erica.

I walked away from the God Account...

So I could have a family.

I won't lose them. - Gideon--

- I am sorry. Miles, please...

Don't come back.

- Fancy seeing you here.

What's up? - Um...

Look, there's something I need to talk to you about.

- Okay. - I just found out my parents

are throwing a surprise party the tomorrow night.

My cousin let it slip.

- Jaya, I had plans for us tomorrow night.

- I know, but I really can't miss this.

My entire family's gonna be there.

I promise I'll make it up to you.

- Jaya, I don't want you to make it up to me,

I just wanna be with you on your birthday.

- I know. So do I.

- Okay, then why don't I come to your party?

- Rakesh, you know that's not an option.

- Why not?

Your parents never said we couldn't be friends.

Right; can't a friend come and celebrate your birthday?

- [sighs] I'm sorry.

I just really don't think it's a good idea.

Rakesh, I know this is hard,

but I need you to trust me, okay?

We'll get through this.

♪

[bell jingles]

- Uh--where's Gideon?

- He's not coming. - Well, you said

he needed to tell me something.

I guess I've been sitting here for nothing.

- That's not true. Five years ago, Gideon was

supposed to make sure you made it to New York

so you could see your father before he died.

But he never did, and you never got a chance

to say good-bye to him, did you?

- Not that it's any of your business,

but no.

It doesn't matter.

I wasn't close to him anyway.

- [scoffs]

- Well, we know that's not true,

otherwise you wouldn't have re-created his paintings

with your AI program. - Clearly something happened

between you two.

- I had a falling out with my father

a few years before he died.

We never spoke again.

I wish I could change that, but I can't.

- No, you can't,

but there might be a way for you to get closure.

- [sighs] How?

- There was a woman that was by his side

when he passed away.

If we track her down, then maybe she can help somehow.

- No. No, she can't.

- Why not? - She betrayed me.

She destroyed my family. - What are you talking about?

- She ruined everything.

My life wasn't supposed to turn out like this.

I was supposed to be someone else.

- Who? - It doesn't matter.

You can't fix that.

You can't fix any of it.

[suspenseful music]

[inquisitive music]

- Okay, so how do we find the woman

that was with August Grenelle the night he died?

- Well, that's a good question.

Hey, hey, Rakesh. You okay?

- Jaya's parents are throwing her a birthday party

so she had to cancel our plans.

- Mmm. I'm sorry. - It's fine.

I just don't wanna talk about it, okay?

Could really use some God Account distraction right now.

- Great, well, how about pulling the visitor logs

from the hospital five years ago?

- [laughs] Shouldn't be too hard.

[knock at door]

- Gideon-- What are you doing here?

- Do you have a minute? - Of course, come on in.

[reflective music]

♪

- Hi.

- Hey.

- After you left, I talked to my wife.

She decided to take our son to her parents' house

for a few days.

She needs some time to think things over.

- Look, Gideon, I'm sorry. That is not what I wanted.

- You said that helping Audrey will let me move on

and that I have to trust the God Account.

- Yes. - It's just been such a

long time since I've done that. I hope you're right, Miles.

- I am.

- Okay, so... How are we gonna help Audrey?

- That's what we're working on. - You know, I was thinking

about what Audrey said, and how that woman betrayed her.

I mean clearly she blames her

for destroying her relationship with her father,

so, maybe fixing whatever between them

could be the key to all of this.

- That makes sense. So, we just have to find

this woman and hope that she'll tell us what happened.

- Yeah, we have to do that before Audrey leaves town

in a few hours. No pressure, Rakesh.

- Oh, your mystery woman is named Madeline Bouchet,

and according to the visitors log, she was at the hospital

every day that August Grenelle was there,

and not only that, she's also a professor of medicine at NYU.

So, I looked up her class schedule,

and she's teaching this morning.

So, if you leave now, you might be able to

catch her after class.

- Trish.

I was, uh, just coming to meet you.

- I--I know I was just--uh-- in the neighborhood

so I thought I'd stop by.

- [stammers] I'm glad you did.

- I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier

that I was back in the city.

- It's okay.

Miles told me that the two of you talked.

- We did. - I can make this work.

- Arthur. - I can.

Just give me the chance.

- Can you promise me

that I won't always take a back seat to the church?

Because that's what I need to hear right now.

- I'd love nothing more than to promise you that,

and I'll do anything to fight for us,

to keep you in my life, but I won't lie to you.

I can't pretend becoming bishop won't impact

how much time we'll be able to spend together.

There will be sacrifices,

but I promise

there's a life for us.

- What will it look like, Arthur?

What will it feel like?

Because at this point in my life,

I don't think I wanna be second.

- Well...

Trish, please...

Don't do this.

- You will make a wonderful bishop.

Congratulations.

- Uh, excuse me. - Yes?

Hi, are you Madeline Bouchet?

- Yes. - I'm Miles, this is Cara,

and Gideon. Um--

We're friends of Audrey Grenelle.

- Okay, what's this about?

- Do you mind telling us what happened between you two?

- Look, we know Audrey wasn't there when her father

passed away, and for some reason, she blames you.

- Uh, I'm aware.

- She's here in New York, but not for long.

We were hoping that you two could talk before she leaves.
