Previously on "God Friended Me"...

We couldn't be prouder of
your nomination for bishop.

During the walkabouts, you'll be meeting

and answering questions
with parishioners,

but there are sensitive
topics you want to

pivot away from if they come up.

You mean my son who is an atheist

and my daughter who is gay.

I did it. Five years ago,

Simon Hayes goes to a New
York Presbyterian hospital

for a bone marrow transplant, right?

Turns out the surgeon who
did the procedure...

John Dove.

Are you okay?

I think you just saved my life.

How did your meeting with FreeVerse go?

They want exclusivity.

Well, I write about the people we help,

not the God Account.

That's the deal. Nothing's changed.

I got invited to lunch

with the editor-in-chief at "Catapult."

I figured out where you
were getting your stories,

but what I can't figure out

is why you're not writing
who's behind the God Account.

You have to kiss her. It's bad luck.

Hey, this is new.

The God Account just rated a seller

buy something from 'em?

No, it doesn't look

You know, Cara, I knew
from Miles podcast

that Henry Chase could
be a possible suspect

behind the God Account, and
then you were kind enough

to tell me you had two suspects.

Yes. I did.

So I started doing a little digging.

It turns out that Henry
Chase attended Columbia

with another pioneer in the
field of predictive analytics.

They even won a few awards together.

Care to take a guess?

there on my own time,

and it's different for everyone.

Well, maybe that's why the God Account

thinks you can help them.

You know what they're going through.

But I know what loss is,

but not what they're experiencing.

If we charge into their
lives without a plan,

we can make things worse.

So where do we start?

Well, what about Jen Levy?

Well, like I said, we've already tried,

and we couldn't find her.

Actually, we haven't tried everything.

I mean, either the God Account
hacked the shipping company

I could just take the

Well, the world's full of them.

But this is great.

Can we go to your house and pick it up?

Actually, I kind of lost it.

It's a long story, but
I promised the Bensons

if I found it, I would
return it to them.

They changed their minds
about selling it.

I'm sorry.

I knew this was too good to be true.

She's gonna be so disappointed.

Who?

My daughter, Lindsay.

She's 13, and tonight's

It's her first recital.

She's been playing an
old beat-up instrument,

special for her.

And that's when I saw the
Holstein violin on Facebook,

sell it for next to nothing.

I know it sounds silly,

but finding them felt
like it was meant to be.

Look, I... I can't make any promises,

but if the violin turns up,

I'll talk to the Bensons

Thank you.

I saw their point, and I even pushed you

pretending to be someone you're not.

No, I want to become bishop

I found Andrea's violin.

Thank God. Where is it?

I gave it back to the
person you sold it to.

Why would you do that?

Because her daughter is a violinist

and she has a recital tonight.

Look, I cannot imagine what
you are going through.

No, you can't.

We didn't just lose Andrea.
We lost our future.

Watching Andrea grow up,
fall in love, get married,

play Carnegie Hall... we lost all of it.

Three years ago today and it
still feels like yesterday.

- Karen...
- No.

I know you're ready to
move forward, but I'm not.

Because I don't know how to do that.

I don't know who I'm supposed to be.

All I know is that I'm trying
to hold on to her memory

as best I can.

And if I get rid of the one
thing that she loved the most,

I'll have nothing left
to remember her by.

Letting go of Andrea's
violin does not mean

that you're letting go of her.

Miles is right.

Her violin can keep making music,

keep making people happy.

It's what Andrea would want.

Please.

All I'm asking you to do
is come to the recital.

If you want the violin back after that,

it's yours.

I thought she'd never let go.

It's been a long time since
we had a moment like that.

I thought if she came tonight,

she might remember that.

But I couldn't get through to her.

I don't think I ever will.

- Thanks for trying.
- [SOFTLY] Yeah.

[SIGHS] I'm sorry, Miles.

I really thought we had it figured out.

All the pieces were
set to come together.

Yeah, I guess we were wrong.

Maybe for the first time we just

can't help our Friend Suggestion.

I hate to say it, but I think

maybe the one thing Mrs.
Benson needs is the one thing

you can't give her... her daughter back.

Yeah, but it doesn't make any sense.

Why would the God Account go through

all this trouble sending us the Bensons,

Andrea's violin, Jen Levy.

Is that John Dove?

Hm?

Wait, how does John Dove know Jen Levy?

We're about to find out.

You're a real talent.

John.

Miles, Cara, what are
you guys doing here?

Uh, Jen and I, uh, are new friends,

and we came to hear Lindsay play.

How do you all know each other?

John is Lindsay's doctor.

He saved her life.

In fact, that was three years ago today.

Andrea's violin.

Thank you for keeping your
word and returning it.

Well, actually we brought
something more than that.

Your husband told me that

when he closed his eyes tonight,

he could hear Andrea playing.

And he was right.

What are you talking about?

Well, three years ago
Lindsay was suffering

from congenital heart failure.

Without a transplant,
she wasn't gonna live.

Andrea's heart saved her life.

The last thing we decided to
do was donate her organs.

We never knew where they went.

I heard your daughter was
an amazing violinist.

- She was.
- When I was sick,

I made a list of things

I'd promise myself I'd do if I lived.

One of them was learn how
to play an instrument.

So my mom took me to a
secondhand music shop,

and for some reason, the
violin spoke to me.

Now I know why.

I think she'd want you to have this.

[BREATHES SLOWLY, SNIFFLES]

[EXHALES]

Somehow Andrea's violin

her heart

Please.

Thank you, Reverend Finer.

As you speak about core
values, I'm curious to hear

your position on the LGBTQIA's
role in the church.

Thank you for your question.
It's an important one.

I think that everyone's relationship

with God is different, that
when we're searching...

I'm sorry, um...

The answer I was about to give

wasn't good enough for you or me.

A few years ago, a parishioner of mine

came to me to tell me
that they were gay.

They were not struggling
with their sexuality

or the decision to come out.

They were struggling with
their place in the church.

How they would be accepted
by the community.

By me.

I was shook by this.

Because that parishioner...

was my daughter.

Through our journey, she
showed me the true meaning

of courage, strength,

of acceptance.

I saw love in this.

I saw God in this.

He offered me an exclusive if I hold off

Afterwards? It's no longer an exclusive.

Do you have enough to start writing?
