- Hi.
- Hi.

- [Bicycle bell rings]
- Oh, hi!

Good morning!

I will have a black coffee, large.

- Caffeine?
- Oh yeah.

That's a diuretic, you know?

Sucks the vitamins and
minerals right out of your body.

Ah.

You know sweetheart, I
gotta be honest with you,

you are too beautiful and too smart

to be schlepping organic bagels

and selling old Elton John albums.

Well, that is the problem
with a degree in fine arts.

- It qualifies you to do absolutely nothing.
- Hmm.

Onion bagel, cream cheese on the side.

Wonderful. That's fantastic.

Whoa, what is this?

I haven't seen this before. Is this new?

Yeah, I made it the other day.

Moon's going to clear out that cabinet

- so I can sell them.
- Really?

That's nice of him.

You know, if you had some start-up money,

you could be doing that full-time.

Yeah, and if I had a degree in accounting,

then I could have a real, grown-up job.

Ah, touch�.

Cook for me tonight?

You know I will.

Love you. Have a good day!

Yeah, that caffeine, it's a...

it chemically stimulates
your stress responses.

Kind of like finding a snake in your bed.

You pull back the covers... ah! Snake!

Your heart starts pounding,
you're short of breath,

you break into a sweat.

[Shudders]

Caffeine.

Snake in the bed.

Well, if you feel this way, why are...

you know, why are you selling coffee?

Well, it's not my place to judge, man.

Now, you have yourself a fine day.

Alrighty then.

Okay.

Judge Lockhart doesn't like to waste time,

so we should be out of there by 10:00.

That quickly?

Yeah, well, it's a divorce,

not first-degree murder.

But, Lockhart runs a pretty tight ship,

so don't say anything

unless you're asked a direct question,

- okay?
- Okay.

Both sides are in agreement
as to distribution of property.

Support is moot,

since there are no children...

[Starts to speak, then stops]

Did you have something
to say, Mrs. Rendall?

Mm-mm.

Did your attorney advise you
not to speak in my courtroom?

Well, I'm asking you a question,

so what did you want to say?

Uh, well...

j... just that...

there was a child?

Um...

but she passed away.

Her heart...

she was born with...

It was congenital.

Um... [clears throat]
she was four days old.

What was her name?

Allison Marie.

Allison Marie.

That's a beautiful name.

And I am

very, very sorry for your loss.

However...

However... I am

not going to give a final
ruling on this decree today.

Your Honor, we were hoping...

I know what you were hoping for, counselor,

but this petition needs further study,

and I am issuing a
continuance for 90 days...

Uh, Your Honor,

I'm about to ship out for six months,

and, you know, I'd really
like this wrapped up.

I understand,

but I do not rush into
making important decisions

for the sake of convenience.

Court adjourned. [Bangs gavel]

Your Honor, if I may...

Your Honor...

Mom?

You know he's not supposed to be in here.

They allow seeing eye dogs.

You're not blind, mom.

So, what went on in there just now?

What are you talking about?

That young couple.

If they were anxious to
end it, why not let them?

You know I can't discuss that.

What are you knitting?

Well, it started as a scarf.

I think I got carried away,

and now it's a blanket.

[Knock on door]

Yes! Come in!

Oh, hi, judge.

I'm Jack Griffith.

Hi.

Hi. I'm the new editor-in-chief,

star reporter,

photographer, circulation manager

of the "Cedar Cove Chronicle."

Congratulations.

What can I do for you?

Well, I would love to talk to you today

about that decision in there.

I can't discuss that.

It just seems that an uncontested divorce

would be a slam dunk.

Mr. Griffith...

- Jack.
- Jack,

if you hang out in courtrooms long enough,

you'll find that when it comes to the law,

there is no such thing as a slam dunk.

Is there anything else I could do for you.

- [Telephone rings]
- I've got it.

- Um... no.
- [Answering phone]

- Hello?
- Well, nice to meet you.

Welcome to Cedar Cove.

All right. Thank you.

Oh, and, Jack, could you do me a favor?

Anything.

Please don't ever bring a cup of coffee

into my courtroom again.

Oh, well, I was just...

It's Senator Rayman's office!

Petey?

Senator Rayman.

Oh please, the first time I
met him was at a frat party,

and he had his head in
a bucket of margaritas.

- Hi, Petey!
- Hello, Olivia.

Well, is it re-election time already?

I thought I just sent you a check.

[Chuckling]

No, for once, I'm not calling about money.

Um, I guess you've heard
that Judge Bloom is retiring.

- I heard.
- What?

- Heard what?
- Mom, please.

Well, you are on a very short list

of possible replacements,

and I just wanted to gauge your interest

before I floated your name out there.

I would be very, very interested.

All right, well, I'm going
to get the ball rolling here.

Please do me a favor.

Don't spread this around until
it becomes official, all right?

And I want my office to
make the announcement.

Of course, Petey.

I'll be in touch.

[Gasping in delight]

This is cruel.

What did he say? What?

Oh, my gosh... [laughing]

You know, this is driving me nuts.

Nobody knows who this guy is.

You could try City Hall.

No, they had a fire back in the '30s.

No records.

Nobody knows.

Is it really that important to you?

[Laughing]

What kind of town has a statue

and nobody knows who it is?

This one, obviously.

Oh, that's the mom right here.

Hi, excuse me.

Could I talk to you for a minute?

- My name is Jack Griffith. I'm with the...
- Oh, yes!

You should really
dedicate a page every week

- to seniors' activities.
- Well, that's...

That's actually not a bad idea.

- But what I wanted to talk to you about...
- [Bell clanging]

Oh!

Wally Dorfman!

Wally Dorfman?

Come on, you don't wanna miss this.

[Bell clanging]

I wonder what he caught this time.

He's a fisherman?

Well, sort of.

Look at that thing.

Hey, nice catch, Wally!

[Laughter]

It's a bike.

A ten speed.

Gonna ride that one home, are you, Wally?

Wally catches the most interesting things.

Last time it was the back of a '72 Camaro.

It still had that "Vote
Nixon" bumper sticker on it.

[Laughter]

Wow, let's hope he doesn't
do catch-and-release.

[Laughter]

[Jack]: I just really think that the

people of this town would love to

read more about their judge.

Look Jack, I'm not sure my daughter
would like an article about her.

Well, I would make it very flattering.

You can trust me on that.

Well, listen, while I've got you,

- do you know who that is?
- No idea.

The plaque fell off years ago.

I can't talk about any of her decisions.

No, no, no, of course not.

I'm thinking more background stuff.

Such as?

Oh, like, um...

I don't know.

Is she married?

Divorced?

Single?

And he doesn't mention the federal thing.

See? I can keep a secret.

And how did he find out the personal stuff?

Oh, that I might have told him.

[Scoffs]

We had coffee. He loves coffee.

He just moved here, and
he is from Philadelphia.

Well, that explains a couple of things.

He's single.

[Laughs]

Well, divorced,

and I think he might like you.

Ugh, mom!

What are we, on the
playground here, or something?

Why are you upset?

It's a flattering article, honey.

He makes you sound very independent.

That's not the point.

It was a simple little divorce case,

and he's trying to stir up controversy,

and I don't need that.

Well, I wouldn't worry about it.

One little article.

I'm sure it's no big deal.

He's nice looking, don't you think?

[Bicycle bell rings]

Am I late?

No, I'm early for once.

I ordered for you.

- I have some news.
- I know!

The judge thing. Congratulations.

- How did you...
- Grandma.

Your grandmother. I should have known.

She's better than Facebook.

It's great, mom.

Well, it's not official yet,

so don't be spreading it around.

It's not me you've got to worry about.

It's your mother.

I made that necklace when I was fifteen,

you don't have to wear
it just to be polite.

I'm not being polite. I like it.

I'm going through your jewelry box

and stealing back all
the old stuff I made you.

It might be worth a lot of money someday.

Like an early Van Gogh sketch or something.

Maybe I should cut off an
ear to help it sell better.

[Laughs]

You got me one scoop?

You said you were fat.

I'm not fat.

I didn't say you were fat.

I'm quoting you. Last time
we left here, you said,

"don't let me get the large. I feel fat."

Direct quote.

Well, I always feel fat when we leave here,

but don't listen to me.

So, are we still on for dinner next week?

Can I bring Warren?

Sure.

You don't mind?

If I minded, I would say so.

Hey!

[Laughing]

And stay out of my jewelry box.

[*]

[Glasses clinking]

New idea. What do you think?

What?

Ooh, very pretty.

Easy, too.

I could knock out a
dozen in a couple hours.

You know, I have to be
honest with you, sweetheart,

I always knew you were a little weird

when you asked for a soldering
gun for your birthday.

[Chuckles]

What is that you're doing?

You always rinse fish in sea salt first.

Didn't your mother ever teach
you anything about cooking?

My mother is a brilliant woman, but

from the time I was 16,

I thought all food was
cooked in a microwave.

Speaking of your lovely mother, she, uh,

doesn't quite approve of me, does she?

I think she just feels a little funny

'cause you're only a couple
years younger than she is.

Has she mentioned that
I've been in her courtroom?

No.

What for?

Come on, honey, I'm a developer.

You don't build over a
hundred houses without

someone occasionally suing you.

So, how did you do?

Well, so far, I'm batting a thousand.

I always walk out the winner.

Good.

So then the two of you shouldn't
have any kind of problems.

Uh, well, I hope not. But ...

I'm just telling you that

before...

I give you...

this.

Marry me, Justine.

What's the problem?

It's my personal life
on the front page, dad.

Call me "Bobby," all right?

It makes us feel a little closer.

No, it doesn't.

You just don't want any
of the young chicks in here

knowing you're old enough
to have a grown daughter.

Hey.

Hey.

So, I'm on alert.

We're going to be shipping out soon.

Okay.

So I guess we'll have to
finalize this when you get back.

Look, I want you to do me a favor.

Can you take care of the Camaro for me?

I'm going to be gone for six months.

It's not good for it to sit,

so if you'd just drive
it around a little bit...

I don't need your car.

Yeah, 'cause that piece of junk

you're driving around is just great.

Okay, is that all you wanted?

What is the problem?

You're doing me a favor,

and I'll sleep better knowing
you're driving something

that's not going to break down
in the middle of the night.

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me, babe.

Stay out of it, dad.

- Okay, yeah. Sure.
- Okay, thank you.

I'll drop the keys off before I leave.

Will you at least look at it?

Warren, it's very sweet,
but a little crazy.

I mean, we barely know each other.

Barely know each other?
What are you talking about?

Come on, Romeo just met Juliet at a party.

And they were dead by
the fifth act. I mean...

can we just leave things the way they are?

Ok, fine. Then you move in with me.

It's crazy that you're paying rent.

I like my little apartment.

Really?

Okay, then try that on.

No.

Why not?

Warren, I can't accept this.

And I have to go.

Where?

I told you.

I got sucked into the high
school reunion committee

and we're in the midst of
planning it right now...

Honey, I'm sorry to say this,

but you're far too young
to be having a reunion.

Should I get two tickets?

[Scoffs]

Right, and I'd show up and
look like one of the chaperones.

I'll pass.

Here she is.

All right, just in time.

Hey, sorry.

So, we're debating DJ versus Larry's band.

Oh, Larry's band sucks.

How about a DJ?

Guess who's back in town.

I was sorry to hear about your dad.

Yeah, that's why I came back.

You know, I have a few
legal things to clear up.

So, where are you living now?

On his boat.

You should come by some
time. It's pretty nice.

I thought for sure

you would've stayed
back east after college.

Yeah, I thought about it, but...

I don't know, just came back.

It felt right.

What were you doing in Alaska?

A lot of things.

Mostly worked on a commercial fishing boat.

Wow.

- Tough job.
- Sometimes, yeah.

I like it, though. It keeps me in shape.

Yeah, I see that.

I mean...

you know.

You look good.

Yeah. Yeah, you too.

Really good.

Well, uh, I'd better get going here.

[Chuckling awkwardly]

- It was good to see you.
- Yeah.

It's like your hair
smells exactly the same.

Is that good or bad?

It's, uh... it's nice.

What do you think, Hank?

Sure don't have any judges
in Philly that look like that.

[Budgie twitters]

[Marching band drums play]

[*]

Unbelievable.

[Brass band begins to play]

[*]

[Laughter and screeching]

[Imitating seagulls]

All right. Excellent.

Let's have a big hand for
our trio from Friday Harbor.

Clearly, they've been
spending too much time

with our feathered friends.

- And now for our next act...
- Hi. Jack Griffith.

You don't have to keep
introducing yourself.

[Seagull impressions continue]

I heard you weren't too
crazy about my article.

Ah, where did you hear that?

I ran into your mom.

She seems to be the town historian.

That's a nice way of putting it.

Look, I'm sorry about the article.

I didn't mean to offend you.

I just wish you would've
talked to me about it.

Hey, I tried. Remember?

Try harder next time.

[Squawking and yelping]

[Laughter]

Well, believe it or not, this is my

first seagull calling contest.

Oh, boy, you're in for a treat.

[Emcee]: Now, from Shaw Island,

we have number eight, one of our favorites.

How about we do some handicapping here.

I pick number eight here to win.

[Gives a seagull cry]

Why eight?

Well, he kind of looks like a bird.

[Squawking, audience laughs]

That's my doctor.

[Laughing]

Well, I'm sure he's a very
skilled physician, but,

come on, you gotta admit,

he does sort of look like a seagull.

[Squawking]

Okay, you have a point, but

12's going to win.

[Cheering and applause]

You, uh, care to put 10 bucks on that?

Done.

All right, well, now
it's a little interesting.

[Emcee]: We have number
nine from Lopez Island.

Okay, tell me the truth
now, how did you know

number 12 was going to win, huh?

He's won the last four years.

Of course.

How are you settling in?

Oh, it's okay.

It's just all a little...

different for me.

What brought you here?

Uh, you know, just, uh...

just a change of scenery, that's all.

You locked your car?

[Scoffs] Uh, yeah.

I lock my house, too. You
know, I'm weird that way.

Well, you're in Cedar Cove now.

We don't lock our doors.

Oh, is that right?

Well, I'll have you know,
I read In Cold Blood.

These charming, quaint
little towns are deathtraps.

- I'm on to you people.
- [Laughs]

Well, Jack, it was fun.

- See ya.
- Goodbye.

Uh, Olivia?

I was just kind of
wondering if you wanted to...

you know, go for dinner?

You know, get some dinner... with me?

- Sometime?
- Off the record?

Absolutely.

Well, I have to check my calendar.

Give me a call tomorrow?

Is that the polite way
of saying "get lost"?

No. I am not that polite. I
would have said "get lost."

Call me.

I don't believe in
alphabetical order, Justine.

No one can find anything.

That's the joy of browsing.

So no sales yet?

It's only been 24 hours.

Hey.

Hey.

Plans for lunch?

Look, Seth, I'm seeing somebody.

Yeah, I know.

He's a little old for you, isn't he?

That is none of your business.

Okay.

So that's it?

What?

Boy, you give up easy.

If the fish ain't bitin', you move on.

Charming analogy, but, um,

I didn't actually say "no."

Thought you should have all the facts.

[Chuckles]

So... when's your lunch break?

Come on, I work for Moon.

See you later, Moon.

Later.

So, what are you going to do?

I don't know what I'm going to do.

Maybe go back to Alaska,

maybe just cast off, see where I end up.

So you don't have any sort of plans?

My dad had plans.

He went to a job he hated every day

so he could retire at 65 and enjoy himself.

Then he keeled over dead at 49.

I'm sorry.

But you've still got to do something.

Oh, I'll do something.

It's going to be something I like.

So you're leaving?

Funny thing is, Justine,

I've been kind of just been...

drifting the last few years.

Every place I landed felt temporary.

Even if I really liked the place,

it was always in the back of my mind

I'd end up here at Cedar Cove.

Just like you did.

You are not going to believe this.

Mom, please,

one of Senator Rayman's aides
is about to arrive any minute.

Warren bought an engagement ring.

Who told you that?

My hairdresser's daughter,
the one with the piercings.

She said Warren was in the other day,

and bought a huge diamond ring.

Mom, I can't deal with this right now.

[Dog barking]

Mom, please, the dog!

[Barking]

Buttercup!

I am so sorry.

- Please come in, Mr. Douglas.
- It's no problem.

Mr. Douglas,

you tell the Senator

my daughter is going to make

- a fabulous federal judge.
- Okay, mom. You can go now.

Thank you.

Thanks so much.

I am so sorry.

Oh, that's... that's fine.

- Please, have a seat.
- Thank you.

Coffee's that good, huh?

I wish.

So, you got anything today?

I caught a couple of kids drinking
in the playground last night.

Confiscate anything good?

No, they only drink the cheap stuff.

Good morning, fellows.

How are you? Nice to see you.

Good afternoon, Your Honor.

I would have come in, but, um,

well, I didn't want to get in trouble.

You drink way too much coffee.

Listen, I thought you
might want to, uh, see this.

I found it online.

It seems congratulations are in order.

Hold the congratulations.

All it's days,

is that I'm being considered
for federal judgeship.

Yeah?

Well, nonetheless, do you mind
if I ask you a few questions?

Jack...

Olivia, come on, this...

this is legitimate news,

for once, please.

What do you say, huh?

- All right.
- Yeah?

Okay. Come on.

So...

Why you, do you think, huh?

No idea.

No?

Did you

know the senator when
you guys were at Yale?

You do your homework.

- Well, I do try, ma'am.
- [Chuckling]

So?

Yeah, we went to law school together.

Ah, you see? Connections.

Yeah, and it's not like that

where you come from, I suppose.

No, no connections are needed there, just a

hefty bribe will do the trick, believe me.

- [Laughs]
- Hey, listen,

while I... while I have you,

why don't I get your picture here?

No.

I...

I'm just not feeling really pretty today.

[Chuckling] Come on,
Olivia. You look great.

Jack, the paper has my official portrait.

Uh-huh.

And who says this is for the paper?

You're a piece of work.

Uh-huh. Smile.

[Shutter clicking]

- [Laughing]
- Now, that is a keeper.

That is a keeper.

- Oh!
- Come on!

- I don't know.
- I don't know, I kind of like that.

Relax.

Honey, I'm trying.

It's just that your mother can
be a very intimidating woman.

This was her idea.

Remember, she's a terrible cook,

so choke it down, be polite,

and we'll get pizza on the way home.

I can't wait.

Hello.

Hi, honey.

Hi, Warren.

Hello.

Thanks.

Dinner? I have to tell
you guys, that was...

amazing. [Chuckling awkwardly]

It was good.

Grandma made it, didn't she?

Why don't you go get us a bottle of wine?

Beautiful view out there.

Yes, it is.

You know, she said "no" to me, by the way.

I saw you checking out the ring finger.

Very perceptive.

I was also a little surprised, Olivia,

at you even inviting me here.

I thought we should try
to get to know each other

outside of the courtroom.

Look, Olivia,

I know you weren't very happy
about some of those decisions,

and I hope down the road that's
not gonna cause any problems.

But since you're dating my daughter,

I would have to recuse myself

from any further legal
dealings you might have.

So why don't we just make a fresh start?

Okay. I would love that.

I'd also like you to
understand that I'm not

going through some mid-life
crisis thing here, okay?

I care about Justine very much.

And I know we're not in your courtroom,

and I'm not under oath here, Your Honor,

but I'd like you to believe me.

I believe you.

And as long as you treat her right,

we'll do just fine.

Cheers.

You've got your keys.

Owner's card. Insurance.

It's all up to date.

[Sighs]

Well, I guess that's all you need.

You went to her grave the other day?

Well, it was her birthday.

It would've been her birthday.

I didn't think you'd remember.

What is that supposed to mean?

Whatever, Ian, you weren't even here...

Come on, don't start this again.

I was all alone...

Yeah, and I was on a submarine

under a polar ice cap!

I didn't even know for a week.

Yeah, but

when you came home, you...

Yeah, I what? I what?

Go ahead.

[Sighs heavily]

It was like you didn't even
give a damn. You just...

We never talked about her. We never...

I was on that submarine for nine days

before they could even let me off,

all right? Nine days,

knowing that you were back here, and I...

[Breathing hard]

You know, when they first told me, I...

I just, I kept walking around that sub,

you know, looking for a place to cry.

But there's not a lot of privacy on a sub,

so I just had to suck it up.

And then you know what,

I came back here, and you were...

You were so torn up, you know?
I just, I just felt like...

like I had to be the strong one, you know?

I just... I just wanted
to take care of you.

I didn't even see her.

If I could've just seen her, I...

[Sniffling softly]

[Sighs]

We're still married, you know.

Well, not for long.

So... can you just go?

Ian, please, can you just go?

Aye-aye.

I know you're not going
to believe this, but, uh...

I was planning to marry you

even if you hadn't gotten pregnant.

[Sighs heavily]

Try not to wreck the car.

[Sighs] All right.

So, our dining options
are somewhat limited here.

Unless you know of a place

that's not listed in any restaurant guide.

- Please tell me you know a place.
- I'm afraid not.

- [Budgie twittering]
- Excellent.

What was that?

Oh, that's just Hank.

Hank?

Yes, you might ask who Hank is.

Um, of course, Hank is my parakeet.

I, um...

Ok, long story short,

I take him into the
paper with me every day,

but I didn't have time
to run him home before we,

you know, we did this,

so he's in the car.

Okay...

Don't worry, I'm not going to
bring him into the restaurant.

[Laughing]

I'm gonna stop talking
and we're going to do this.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Oh, wait, just let me get...

That's not right.

- That's better.
- Okay.

[Giggling]

Your chariot awaits.

Say hello to Hank. Hank, that's, uh...

- Hey Hank.
- Olivia. Olivia, that's my bloody bird.

[*]

[Whispering] Dad! That's
her. That's Judge Lockhart.

I know.

Of course, of course, she sits at my table.

Of course she does.

Can you get Tonya, please?

Ask her to take table 11 for me?

Why? What's the problem?

You think I'm waiting on her? I'm not.

I'm not waiting on her.

Okay. Whatever you say.

I bet...

you were one of those kids

who knew exactly...

what she wanted to do when she grew up.

Hmm? I'm right, aren't I?

[Laughing]

You asked Santa Claus

for a black robe and gavel, didn't you?

My father was a lawyer.

Yeah, I know.

Your mom.

Right.

Remember.

When I was little,

his office was

my most favorite place in the whole world.

All those law books.

Of course when I was five,

I used them to make a castle out of them,

but when I got older...

I don't know.

What?

Okay...

this may sound silly,

but...

there was something majestic about it.

What?

You're staring at me.

No, I'm sorry, I was just, uh...

I'm just listening.

And what about you?

Were you born with this

burning desire to write?

Uh, let's say

I grew up with a burning
desire to never do heavy labor.

[Laughing]

Pretty much...

Olivia.

Stan.

You look great, as always.

So do you.

New suit.

Nice.

Stan, this is Jack Griffith.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

Yeah, you've done a
great job with the paper.

I've actually started reading it again.

Thank you.

How's Melanie?

Oh, please.

Like you care how Melanie's doing.

I'm being polite.

Part of your charm.

Listen, I don't want to interrupt.

I, uh, just wanted to say it's

always nice to see you,

and you really look terrific.

- Thank you.
- Jack.

[Sighing]

[Clears throat]

Old friend?

Old husband.

[Laughs]

You guys seem awfully friendly, huh?

We are.

Is that so odd?

[Laughs] Compared to my ex, yeah.

We didn't exactly have the most, um,

amicable divorce,

you could say that.

So I'm used to, you know, sirens

and garbage trucks and
all that kind of noise.

I tell you, my first night here,

I heard a cricket.

Kept me up the entire night.

I mean, I literally tore
my entire place apart,

looking for this thing.

Well, is it getting any better?

[Chuckles]

You know, actually,

now that I'm getting used to the

quiet,

I can actually sleep here.

I mean, I've been an insomniac
my entire life, but...

I don't know, there's
something about this place.

Yeah, Cedar Cove can have that

soothing effect on people.

Yeah, so can a lobotomy.

[Chuckles]

- Jack, you're a funny man.
- Hmm.

And a really good writer.

You know, whenever I tell
people that I'm a writer,

they always think it's so fascinating.

You know, like I'm way off
to the bullfights every week.

I don't have the heart
to tell them that, uh,

it's usually pretty dull, and, uh...

it's kind of lonely, actually.

Well, it's, um,

still early. Would you...

like to come in and have a nightcap?

Um... no.

I'm going to take a rain check on that.

I, um...

I've got some stuff

to do back at the paper tonight,

but, um, thank you.

Thank you for the night. Thank you.

Um...

are we still on

for tomorrow?

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

Uh, okay, great.

I'll see you at the theatre at 3:45, then.

3:45. Sounds great.

Jack, are you okay?

No, I'm fine. I just, um...

I've got a lot of work stuff
going on in my mind. It's...

it's nothing.

Good night.

Night.

Hey, what are you doing here?

I'm on the schedule, aren't I?

I thought you'd be seeing your husband off.

Ex-husband, dad.

Wait, they're pulling out today?

He's on the Reynolds, isn't he?

Yeah. The Reynolds.

I hate it when the Navy leaves town.

That's half my tips right there.

You always know just what
to say, don't you, Bobby?

Hi, you've reached Jack Griffith.

You know what to do.

Olivia?

The show's about to start.

[Exhaling evenly]

[Knocking on deck]

Hey.

You wouldn't let me pay for lunch, so

I thought I'd bring some wine.

Hm. Oh.

You're supposed to ask
permission to come aboard.

Yeah, right.

All right, here we go.

- For you.
- Thank you.

So where's Warren?

The city,

on business.

Don't you ever get lonely
out here all by yourself?

I've got some friends.

You know, it was weird the other night,

walking into the meeting, and,

I don't know, just seeing you there.

You're the only reason I
joined that stupid committee.

Maybe if I'd known you
were going to be there

I wouldn't have been thrown off, but...

Seth, no.

Ok, what's going on?

You invited me here to
see your boat, remember?

Your boyfriend's out of town,

and you come by with a bottle of wine?

Now, did you dump him,

and I'm, like, a rebound-type thing?

'Cause that's cool, I don't mind...

It's nice to see that
your ego hasn't changed.

You remember what you told me
when you dumped me, Justine?

You said you saw no
future with a dumb jock.

- I didn't say that.
- Oh, yeah, you did.

I was seventeen.

Yeah, and you go from dumb
jock to richest guy in town.

You know, if you marry him for a
year or two, you're set for life.

Just don't sign any pre-nups though.

Maybe I love him, did
you ever think of that?

You don't love that guy, Justine.

Come on, you're just
looking for something safe,

- like you always were...
- You want to live here

on this boat with no responsibilities,

that's great. Now.

I'll check back in on you in 20 years

and see how you're doin'.

Sometimes, growing up means

doing things that you don't want to.

Yeah, like hooking up with a rich guy.

God, you're still 17.

And you're 65.

Have fun with your safe little life.

You know, come on by if
you need a little adventure.

[Sighing heavily]

Hmm, should make a pretty
good haul tonight there.

Yeah...

pay for about five minutes with my lawyer.

Why don't you let me help you out?

Really? You would lend me money?

No.

I got a tip for you, though.

Fourth race tomorrow at the track.

It's a sure thing. You can't lose.

How much you want me to put down?

Dad, turn it up. Turn it up, turn it up.

Tragedy tonight

aboard recently dispatched
nuclear submarine, USS Reynolds,

as an explosion rocked
the fully manned vessel.

According to Navy officials,

"the explosion and consequent damage

were limited to the forward
compartment spaces only.

The naval department has not yet determined

the cause of the explosion.

No names of casualties have been released.

Our sources confirm

that affected areas include crew living,

command and control spaces,
and the torpedo room."

I thought we were going to lunch.

You know, honey... [sighing]

You look a little depressed ever since
I got back from the city, so I thought,

you know what, "let's buy her a present."

You like it?

What's going on?

Well, here's what's going on.
Honey, this is your own gallery.

Hand-crafted jewelry.

I thought you'd bring on a couple
local artists to help you out.

It's great foot traffic.

There's a workshop in the back.

- Bingo.
- Whoa.

- Warren, I can't...
- Okay, it's an investment, Justine.

That's all. It's not a gift, an investment.

Besides, come on, give
yourself some respect.

You're... talented, I think you could be
very successful at something like this.

Which is why I thought, in
the first place, to buy it.

Wait a minute, I...

what does this mean?

I mean, what are you expecting here?

What strings are attached?

There are no strings attached, I promise.

Okay?

Unless, of course, you want them.

[Chuckling]

Come on, I can close it
next week. What do you say?

[Laughs]

That's the biggest rock I've ever seen.

What's going on?

Seth, I didn't think you'd be here.

Can I see?

Wow. [Chuckles ruefully]

I guess you showed me, huh?

[Cell phone rings]

Hello?

[Voice shaky] Okay.

[Clears throat]

Yeah, thank you.

Thank you.

He's alive.

Well, thank God.

He's alive.

Um,

they said he was below
deck when it happened,

and he has a concussion,

and they're gonna let me
see him as soon as they can.

- He's going to be okay.
- Good, good, good.

You're too young to get married.

You were younger than I am.

Then learn from my mistakes.

I'm sorry, you're just a kid, Justine,

you don't even know what you want.

Warren is one of the most
interesting men in town.

He takes care of me.

He makes me feel safe.

You know what I'm hearing here?

I'm hearing "security."

I'm not hearing "love."

Let's throw everything else out...

the business, the money, the
fact that I'm leaving you,

and ask yourself, and be honest...

do you love him?

Honey, I want to be happy for you.

Celebrate, and open the champagne,

but I don't feel any love here.

[Sighs]

Ian?

Ian, hi. It's me.

- Hey.
- Hi.

[Clears throat]

I didn't think you'd come.

Well, of course, I'd come. Why wouldn't I?

[*]

Olivia!

So sorry to keep you waiting.

Look at you, you look great.

You haven't changed a bit.

You've put on a little weight.

Oh, thank you.

Good to see you're still honest.

I think you are going
to be a great nominee.

And you know what, I would
have put you up last time,

but I didn't think I could
drag you out of that town.

Well, things change, Pete.

So they do.

Listen, I'm going to be upfront with you.

Some of my advisors,

they were a little surprised by my choice.

Is that so?

Yeah, a small town in
the middle of nowhere.

I think they were expecting a nominee

- with a little more name recognition.
- So why me?

You've had a lot of decisions

challenged in higher courts,

and you've only been
overturned exactly once.

Do you know, if that was a batting average,

you'd be worth $70 million a year?

[Laughs]

And the fact

that I'm a woman could
help with certain voters.

Can't hurt.

I do have one concern.

My decision was totally legal.

There were certain...

Circumstances that came to my attention,

- and I just felt...
- Nobody's questioning the legality.

It's the headline.

Something like this appears on
the front-page of a newspaper,

people see controversy,
whether it's there or not.

I wasn't happy with that story either.

If we are going to close this nomination,

we have to avoid anything that
even smells like controversy.

If the couple re-petitions,
I will grant the divorce.

I just felt...

sometimes,

especially in a small town, where

everyone knows each other,

I think it's important to
stay within the law, but

use an element of common sense.

In this case,

I just thought it was
the right thing to do.

Okay, I hear you.

I just don't want to see
any more stories like this.

Do we understand each other?

I stand by my decision...

Senator.

Hey, just stay off the front page, okay?

Come on, I'm taking you to dinner.

I want you to meet some
of my biggest donors.

In a small town, you don't specialize.

That's the good part.

I get everything thrown at me.

You not only get a
broader sense of the law,

but it's never boring.

Much crime?

Some. It may take place 80 miles away,

but it ends up in front of me.

What are your feelings about
the Cathcart/Technet case?

I haven't heard both sides.

Well, you must read the papers.

It'll be brought up next term.

Yes, I know.

And?

And what?

Well, what are your thoughts?

I thought this was a dinner,

not a litmus test.

Are you avoiding the question?

No, I'll tell you straight out,

I'm not answering it.

I appreciate you gentlemen
supporting me, but

if you think this a preview
of coming attractions

regarding decisions, you're mistaken.

Tom, back off.

No judge is going to comment
on something like that.

At least not an honest one.

[Laughs]

[*]

Come on.

- It's closed.
- Please. I'm a Senator.

The decisions you make in here

will become a little piece of history.

Believe me, I've thought about it.

You just hope you make the right ones.

- It's a little scary.
- Oh, you'll do fine.

This way.

Your courtroom.

Thank you, fellows.

So, Troy.

What are those two feds doing here in town?

What feds?

Those two that just walked out of here.

What makes you think they were feds?

They all go to the same tailor.

Come on, Troy,

give me something here, okay?

Otherwise, my lead story
this week is gonna be about

a guy who builds amusing birdhouses.

Yeah, I think what you're failing
to grasp here, Jack, is that

people like to read about birdhouses.

Yeah, this, uh...

guy spent a whole year

building an exact replica
of Buckingham Palace.

Between you and me, though,

I really don't think the birds care.

Well, I gotta go.

Talk to you later.

Yeah. Bye!

So I'll see you next week?

Hey.

You're late.

Meeting's over.

Yeah. Yeah, I know.

I thought I ought to blow this one off.

After the last one.

Look, I'm sorry.

I saw your ring, and...

I guess I just felt, uh...

I don't know what I felt, but...

- Seth.
- When you came out to the boat,

what you said,

maybe you were right, maybe
I do need to grow up a little.

I just...

felt for a minute maybe
I had a second chance.

I shouldn't have said what I did.

I hope you're happy.

[Rings doorbell]

Jack?

Sorry to bother you. I
don't mean to, uh, intrude,

but if you've got a minute,

I've, uh, got something here
I think you might want to see.

Warren's been under surveillance.

Troy's been working with some federal boys.

What are they looking into?

Financial stuff.

I didn't get the details. He
just told me enough to, um,

you know, get me to shut up for a while.

Jack, this is evidence.

No. No, Olivia, it's not.

It was in the trash, all right, so, uh,

they obviously didn't
think it was that important.

Look, maybe I shouldn't have, um,

brought this to you. I just...

No, I'm glad you did.

Okay.

Would you like a cup of coffee?

Yeah.

It's gorgeous back here.

It's my favorite place.

Hmm, yeah.

Look, I owe you an explanation.

You don't owe me anything.

Olivia, I know that you're angry

about the other day, okay?

Do you know why?

Yeah, I think I've got
a pretty good idea, yeah.

I don't think you do.

If you had called and said specifically

what was going on...

why you had to cancel,

that's one thing, but...

you're evasive, Jack,

and I don't like that.

I'm a judge.

People stand in front
of me and lie every day,

and I have to read between the lines

and try to figure out who I believe.

I don't have time to do that on my day off.

Yeah, that's fair enough.

I'm an alcoholic.

The other day,

when I was supposed to meet
you at the play, I, uh...

I panicked.

Olivia, you're the first
woman that I've dated...

sober.

And I swear to God, I was in

my car on my way to meet you, and, uh...

I just got very scared.

I didn't think I could
do it without a drink.

So I turned around,

and I spent the afternoon

in my sponsor's living room,

gulping down copious amounts of coffee.

This is why I'm in Cedar Cove.

Back there in Philly, I, uh...

I screwed up my job,

my marriage,

and my kids.

My son rarely talks to me now,

and, quite frankly, I can't blame him.

You see, this job...

is a life preserver for me.

It's my last chance. And, uh...

I know it.

I'm sorry.

Thank you for telling me.

Olivia, I have never met anyone like you.

Of if I did, I wasn't
sober enough to remember it.

[Chuckles]

And look at you.

You're smart,

you're gorgeous,

you occasionally laugh at my lame jokes.

[Laughs]

Occasionally, yeah.

And I can't stop thinking about you.

[Warren]: You know, I go
away for just a few days,

and all of a sudden, you
run into your old boyfriend.

An old friend.

And maybe if you made a
little bit more of an effort

- to meet some of them...
- Justine, save it.

Please, you never really
wanted me to go to this reunion

in the first place, and you know it.

Warren, we're engaged now.

Don't you think it's
going to look a little...

I don't care how it looks, Justine! No!

Warren...

it's always just the two of us.

Hmm.

I'm so isolated out here.

I mean, one night.

Please, just come.

So I can watch you dance
with your fisherman friend?

You're a jerk.

Where are you going?

Justine!

You really think you could leave all this?

It's not going to be easy,

but I keep reminding myself

that a federal judge can do a lot of good,

change a lot of lives.

Ah...

And so, what,

you couldn't do that
from here in Cedar Cove?

You know,

I hear half the little girls in this town

want to go to law school because of you.

Yeah, and that's what the world needs,

more lawyers.

[Chuckles]

Thank you.

Who's the little boy here with Justine?

That's my son.

Jordan.

Justine had a twin brother.

He drowned when he was 13.

I am so sorry.

Justine saw it.

She's never gotten over it.

Stan and I were angry, guilty.

The marriage broke up shortly after that.

Do you think that maybe...

that had something to do with
your denial of that divorce?

Just don't go there.

I don't know, this might
not be such a good idea.

Well, it's better than the base.

- Well, where am I going to sleep?
- Right there.

- Where are you going to sleep?
- Same place.

Are you sure about that?

Yes, I am.

[Sighs heavily] So...

are you free tomorrow night?

Turn around and look at that, Jack.

I'm moving.

Yeah.

Jack...

I really like you.

I do.

But...

let's not start something we can't finish.

[Sighs heavily]

Well, you're the judge.

[Laughs]

Yeah.

Ian?

Hey.

Uh, can I get a ride to the base?

Why, did they call you back again?

No. No...

I just think I'd better leave.

No. Why? That's crazy.

You're going to stay here.
I'm going to take care of you.

Why?

Because you're my husband.

Well, not for long.

I mean, what are we doing here?

You know, it's just like

we're playing house or something.

Before I left, you couldn't
wait to divorce me, and now what?

I mean, what... what's the big change?

I was scared.

I don't know, I thought you were dead.

And just...

the thought of losing you, and...

I'm still not over losing her yet.

Yeah, neither am I.

I just... you know, I just
think it's better if I go.

Please don't go.

Please. Look at me.

Please...

stay with me.

Don't leave.

Please?

Okay.

[Kids laughing]

[Door closes]

Hey.

I hope you don't mind.

No, no, of course not.

Hmm, fight with Warren?

Kind of.

It's been a little tough lately.

[Kids chatting and laughing]

Sorry.

No, it's okay.

I've just been thinking
about Jordan a lot lately.

With you leaving and...

not having this house anymore.

Mom, I'm just...

- I'm afraid I'm going to forget him.
- Oh...

How he laughed and how he...

but when I come in this house,

it just all comes back.

Like he was still here.

It's so stupid.

No, it's not.

It's not stupid.

I still go sit in his room

all the time.

His bike is still in the garage.

I can't bring myself to give it away.

I'm sorry, I know this
whole judge thing means

a lot to you,

and I don't mean to guilt trip you.

It's just...

it's going to feel so
weird without you around.

I mean, I know dad tries, but...

Come on, it's always just been us.

Hey...

there's some ice cream in the freezer.

I already had mine.

You did not!

No!

[Laughing]

It's okay, I left you some.

[Sniffles]

[Doorbell rings]

Olivia, hi.

I'll get straight to the point.

I want you to break off the engagement.

You know, Olivia... [stammering]

why are you doing this?

I thought we had reached some
sort of understanding here.

Okay, look, I know we're
never gonna be best friends,

but I have every intention
of making your daughter happy.

Do you think...

these would make her happy?

One of your business trips.

Glad to know you weren't lonely.

Where did you get those?

What matters is that I have them.

Now, I haven't shown Justine,
but I will if I have to.

Break it off, and I won't.

Well, maybe I'll take that chance.

You won't Warren?

Your reputation means too much to you.

Justine would never tolerate this behavior.

Do you really want everyone in this town

knowing you got dumped?

You know, Olivia,

I love your daughter very much,

no matter what you think.

You don't love her.

You're not capable of love.

Okay.

You know, two of us can play at this game.

You know, you're not really acting

very ethical right now, Your Honor.

I'm a mother first.

You're not going to hurt my daughter.

Be smart.

Break it off.

[Knock on door]

Yes, come in.

Hey, uh, Judge,

can we talk to you for a sec?

You really should have counsel present.

Well, actually, um,

we'd like to drop our, uh...

Petition.

We figured maybe if we just
spoke to you about it...

Then we could save some legal fees.

Consider it dropped.

[Chuckles in relief]

Um, these are for you.

This isn't a bribe, is it?

No, it's...

more of a thank you, I guess.

Yeah, 'cause there's something
else we want to talk to you about.

See, when we got married, I was pregnant...

- And I was shipping out...
- And,

well, the whole thing took, like, a minute.

- I was wearing jeans.
- Yeah,

it wasn't real romantic.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you doing here?

Oh,

just enjoying a little peace and quiet.

Justine called from here.

She wanted me to come pick her up.

- You haven't seen her, have you?
- No.

[Sudden cheering and applause]

Congratulations!

[Cheering and applause]

There you go, one OJ, straight up.

Thanks, Moon.

You must be the new guy.

That's right, I am.

We haven't met. I'm Wally Dorfman.

Nice to finally meet you.

So, Wally, have you caught
anything good lately?

Got a good stop sign the other day.

Wally, what are you using for bait?

Hey, listen up, everybody,

the mayor has an announcement to make.

Everybody, could I have your attention?

Olivia...

You're probably going to
be too busy to miss us,

but we are all really going to miss you.

So we figured

you could take us with you.

[Laughing]

[Cheering and applause]

Thank you so much.

I have a little going-away present for you.

I thought you might want to see this

before it runs in the paper tomorrow,

knowing what a stickler you are

for things being written about you.

[Sighs]

Thank you.

[Jack writes]: "We all dream
of making it big someday...

And for Olivia Lockhart,

being appointed to a federal judgeship

is like being called
up to the major leagues,

more prestige, better
money, a bigger audience.

She'll have a chance to make decisions

that will be studied in law books

for years to come.

Very few things in life, however,

come without a price,

and she'll be paying a steep one.

She has to leave us.

There will be a lot of sad
people here in Cedar Cove

on the day she does.

Her family, her friends,

young girls who looked
up to her as a role model.

Olivia Lockhart has touched a lot of lives

here in Cedar Cove,

probably more than she realizes.

That's tough to do in a big city,

so I can't help but think
she'll be a little sad, too.

The city has lots to offer,

but there's one thing
she won't have there,

her memories,

because they're right here,

in Cedar Cove."

[Knock on door]

Hi.

Hey, you.

Am I interrupting anything?

[Laughs heartily]

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I'm doing an in-depth article

on the Rotary Club pancake breakfast.

I smell Pulitzer.

You can't print it.

[Sighing]

Come on, Olivia.

Do you know how hard that
was for me to write that?

You can't print it because I'm not going.

I turned it down.

You're kidding.

Nope.

But why? Why would you do that?

[Sighs] Lot of reasons, I guess.

Maybe I'm afraid of being homesick.

[Tapping desk thoughtfully]

Olivia...

[Sighs]

This is a huge opportunity for you.

I know.

Maybe I'm crazy.

I have wanted something
like this my whole life,

and now...

it doesn't seem that important.

[Sighs] Well...

You know, maybe it
isn't so crazy after all.

"There are more tears shed

for answered prayers than unanswered."

Saint Theresa.

What?

You just quoted a Saint?

Yeah, well, I read it in a fortune cookie.

[Laughing]

Okay, I, um...

I want to ask you something.

- Ask away.
- Okay.

Um...

do you really think about me all the time?

Well...

not if there's a really good game on,

'cause that would, you know...

[Laughing]

Of course I do.

You know I do.

Oh, wow.

I really like that.

Do you think we could do
the dating thing again?

Absolutely.

- Hey.
- Hmm?

Do you own a suit?

We are gathered here today

to celebrate the reunion

of Ian and Cecilia.

But first, on a personal
note, I would like to say

I am very, very happy

to be here today.

Ian, would you like to
share your vows with us?

Cecilia, for the rest of my life...

This summer on Cedar Cove...

- You are gonna break up with me.
- Yes, and I should have done it earlier.

Did you kiss him yet?

Seth asked me to move in with him.

That lighthouse, is a historic landmark.

There's nothing you, or this
town's gonna do to stop it.

This injunction is declined.

So where does this leave us?

All the time that I needed
fatherly advice, where were you?

Cedar Cove,
