[MUSIC]

[TRAFFIC SOUNDS]

[MUSIC ONLY]

Oh, I'm such an idiot.

I just left my key on the table

so that I wouldn't forget it.

No problem, I can let you in.

Thank you so much.

I do this all the time.

Its really stupid of me.

I hate to interrupt.

[SPEAKING SPANISH] La Ciento!

You're sorry?

I'm his wife.

I can explain.

Let me give it a shot.

You fell naked into bed with
your intern.

Ma'am, I'm so super sorry but,

Chaz and me like, really,
really love each other.

That's so sweet.

Get dressed!

And answer your phone!

I have been calling
you non-stop!

Your dad's in the hospital.

He's in a coma so they moved
him to Richmond.

[SNICKERING]

And this one says, "Feel
better" from your buddy Paul.

Of course, its feel better
with Tequila.

And Doris's grandson drew a
great picture of you

falling off the roof
of the house.

[KNOCKING]

Hey...

I'm glad you guys made it.

Oh my gosh.

Baby!

What's the latest?

He's going to be okay, he's
going to be okay.

He's been working so hard on
the house.

This coma's probably saved him
from a heart attack.

Is there anything we can do?

No, Ben came by and
brought the mail.

Sarah's Ben?

Uh-huh.

Oh, he does exist.

Yeah, he brought me some
clothes from the house.

What is all this Grillig
Property stuff?

I told you about those people.

They're trying to buy up our
whole neighborhood.

I'm going to go
use the bathroom.

Talk to your father.

Okay.

I feel like I probably should

stay here in Richmond with them.

You're going to stay here with
my parents?

Yeah, somebody has to.

Your mom can't do a
three hour drive

back and forth from
Bethel Cove everyday.

That's not going to work,

so we'll just get a hotel room
and I'll stay.

So you're not going to tell
them what happened?

- Eventually, yeah
- Listen Jess, I can't get
a divorce.

My mom and dad
would be devastated.

If its the cheating, I swear-

If its the cheating?

[MUSIC]

It's good to see
you again, Jess.

Did you bring the papers?

Yeah, I did, I'll
give them to you

when we get back to the house.

Just mail them back to me when
you're done.

And it'll be final.

Jess, we have to tell her.

No, not yet.

Jess, she thinks she's moving
to New York

to live with the both of us.

I know that, but this... No.

Not today.

I can't believe you never
brought me to your hometown.

Well, you're welcome.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

Who is that arguing with her?

Insurance salesman.

Won't leave her alone.

Are you kidding me?

Here?!

I'm sorry, Mr.

can I take you
for a second, please?

I just want to talk to you.

Mom, I'm so sorry...

Jessie, right?

It's good to finally meet you.

Save it.

I saw you talking to Naomi.

Of course, I'm worried about
her future.

Maybe you should be worried
about your own future.

You got exactly what you
deserve right there.

And, if I ever catch you trying
to sell to her again,

I'll teach you about a little
kick called the Kistrate.

Something I learned in self
defense class.

Wait, wait, wait.

Stay.

What happened?

We talked.

We just worked it out.

It was very civil, very...

Oh no...

For those of you who
don't know me,

I'm pastor Ben Kingston.

I was...

I was blessed to call Lyle
Ellison my father-in-law.

He and Naomi are
the proud parents

of Chaz and my wife, Sarah.

She was the love of my life.

And even after she passed six
years ago,

Lyle insisted I call him Dad.

And I did.

Lyle is survived by his
beautiful wife Naomi...

You okay, Mom?

Hey guys, I got some leftovers.

Shh

Sorry!

And I'm sorry about the grave.

Chaz told me you were an
insurance salesman.

That's Ben's joke.

That's your joke?

Life after death insurance.

I'm a pastor, I help people get
in Heaven.

It's not as funny when I
explain it.

Ever.

Mom, you okay?

The mover's will take care of
all of this.

I just want to pack up for
myself, okay?

Just give me three or four more
weeks, please?

I mean, two if Jesse will stay
and help me.

Yes, yeah of course.

Mom, let me just hire movers

and you'll be out of here
within a week.

Why are you rushing her?

They won't close until she
moves out.

They can't just wait a little
while longer?

How many other people are going
to buy a house with a

bridge in their front yard?

I don't know Chaz,
but I do know

that Mom doesn't want to move-

She's not your Mom!

We're divorced!

What?

Charles?

Chaz, you are such a-

Monkey bread?

Chaz and I got a divorce.

Since I've been in the kitchen?

Here, do me a favor
and pack fast.

The movers will be
here in two weeks.

And that's longer than you want
to be in this town.

Trust me.

Bye.

I'm going to take care of my
own luggage...

Naomi, are you sure this is a
good idea?

My son wants me to
move in with him,

I'm not going to say, "No."

No, I mean that, too, but,
never mind!

He means letting me
stay with you.

That is not what I meant.

That's what I meant.

Jim Nuefert?

Chaz Ellison here.

[ON PHONE] Hey Hardball, what's
going on?

Do we have a deal?

Absolutely, just need
a couple weeks

to finalize the paperwork and
we're all set.

That's cutting it close.

Listen man, two weeks and
they're out of the house.

Guaranteed.

Curly fries, you got it.

- I'll have that right out
for you
- Daphne Larkin,

I was hoping you'd
still be here.

Always here for you, Chaz.

I was sorry to hear
about your dad.

Thank you.

Can I get you something?

Do you remember what
I used to like?

Of course I do.

I'm assuming you want it to go?

Actually, I was going to eat it
here if you don't mind?

Oh yeah, pull up a seat.

Great.

If only I'd known you'd be this
hot twenty years later.

Careful, you're a
married man, again.

And divorced again?

No, I thought she was in town
here with you.

She is, she's over there
with my mom.

Practically moving in with her.

She still thinks
there's a chance.

No, done deal.

Why is that?

What did she cheat on you?

I really shouldn't say.

Really?

Listen, Daphne,
I'm flying out tonight.

Maybe you could
check in on her?

Make sure she doesn't get too
comfortable here?

Thanks, Daphne.

Alright, I got to
get to my customers.

Quit being so charming.

This is Sarah's room.

Wow.

Did she work at a trophy store?

I guess you can start packing
this one up in the morning.

You okay.

I will be.

I know.

Thank you for having me here.

Thank you.

Alright, good night.

I'm here if you
need anything, okay?

[DOOR CLOSES]

[MUSIC]

Good morning.

You're up early.

We have a lot to
do today, so...

Are you hungry?

You want some breakfast,
some coffee...

No, I'm fine.

Okay, actually that's good.

Because I realize that you've
been away so long that we

would probably have
to go get groceries.

I realized last night you guys

probably needed some groceries,

so I brought them.

Okay.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Nothing was open yet, though.

So I just borrowed what I could
from the church pantry.

That's a lot of mustard.

That's great, though.

Because I was thinking today
that I would love

for breakfast to have a thousand
hot dogs.

That sounds good.

That'll keep.

You know we're
leaving in two weeks?

[WHISPERING] I appreciate
everything you're doing for her.

I really do.

But, moving Naomi to New York?

Its the best thing for her.

Its what she wants to do.

Best thing for her?

Or best thing for you?

She's not going to be living
with me.

She's going to be
living with Chaz.

Exactly.

That's going to last about a
week, at the most.

I'll take care of her.

She's lived here forty years.

We're her family.

You know, let us
take care of her.

Right, you should
take care of her.

By honoring what she has said
she wants to do which is...

Oh, what was it?

Yeah, go to New York.

[MUSIC]

Yes!

[OS] Here you go, hon.

Hello!

Hi.

Yeah, I'm Jessie.

Oh yeah, we know who you are.

Look who it is, everybody!

Oh, hi.

Let's see, can I get a half
caff mocha

with soy and lots
of whip, please.

I'm so sorry, we don't have
your fancy city coffees here.

Oh, that's okay.

Let's do a big coffee, lots of
cream, lots of sugar.

You got it, large coffee...

Hey Daphne, can I get my large

choco-cino with blended whip?

You got it, Shae.

Hey Joe, get Shae's special,
blended whip.

So no fancy city coffees, huh?

Extra cream, extra sugar,
is it?

Alright.

Oh, okay.

When you have a second,

do you think I could talk to
your manager?

No problem!

Hi, I'm the manager, what can I
do for you?

I'm just trying to get a decent
cup of coffee?

I know, um... Fuel depot.

Its about thirty miles
down 86 south.

They make amazing coffee.

Great.

Okay, great.

Thank you.

Cheers.

Head out now,
you won't hit traffic.

Okay.

Okay, preacher.

You following me or is that
just your truck's top speed?

Naomi said you went out.

I thought you might get lost.

You know your downtown is only
five blocks, right?

And all on one
side of the street.

Yeah, there is more to Bethel
Cove than you might think.

Why don't you hop in and

I'll give you a tour?

I don't have time, lot of
packing to do still.

And it's taking me a little bit
longer to do what with all

of the tape that disappeared.

Yeah, sorry, that was...

Stupid?

Let me make it up to you?

Give you a ride back?

Yeah, yes.

I'll take a ride back.

Thank you.

Wow, quite the chariot here.

That's a lot of tape.

It is, it is.

If you want to use any of it to
fix up your truck,

by all means.

I'm pretty good, actually, I
have some leftover.

You do?

So, is this how you usually
pick up women?

What?!

No, no, I didn't...

That was a joke.

Ben, that was just a joke.

Sheesh, totally
worth it, though.

[LAUGHING]

Naomi was that way.

Yeah, I know, but I'm going to
take you

to see the museum first.

It's great.

The museum?

Yeah.

As enticing of an offer as a
museum day sounds,

I really do have a ton of stuff
to do.

That woman has been holding on
to stuff for years...

Okay, you're starting to creep
me out here, tapeworm.

Allright.

Here's the deal.

Naomi has company coming over.

Her friends want to talk to her
about staying here.

In her home.

Honestly, I am totally fine
with that,

but I should at least be there.

These are friends from church.

Right.

Oh, you think I'm going to
embarrass her?

You have to understand, Jessie,

Chaz tends to attract a certain
type of woman.

That didn't come out right.

No, I think that came out just
perfectly, Ben.

I completely understand.

But, I don't think
you should worry.

I'm probably not going to make
it to the meeting on time

because its really time
consuming to just wander around

a neighborhood and try to find
someone to sleep with.

[DOOR SLAMS]

Are you sure about leaving?

This community needs you.

We've saved your seat on the
committee, kept it open.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hi!

Jessie, this is Doris Sheeline,
Melinda Alders,

and Elaine Crowley.

And Eddie.

Hello, I'm Jessie.

Naomi's daughter-in-law.

Well, ex
daughter-in-law, really.

I divorced her son.

That was a lot of information,
wasn't it?

And it sounded bad, but its not
bad, its good.

Its, so good!

Cause he was the worst.

Not the worst.

You raised him to have many
fine qualities.

Just none of them that were
visited upon me consistently,

so in this case its great.

Good divorce!

Thank God-

Goodness, thank goodness
we divorced

because its better now.

Life is better for me now.

I'm going to start again.

I'm Jessie!

I like her.

Oh.

[TRAFFIC]

[GLASS BREAKS]

Naomi, are you okay?

[OS] In here.

Hey!

Oh.

What happened?

I was clumsy, that's all.

Do you think maybe we're moving
a little too fast here?

It is Sunday, you want to take
a day off

and go do something fun?

Oh no, I got enough rest.

Lets just keep moving, okay?

Keep packing.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Okay.

[MUSIC]

I have an idea.

Lets go church-ing.

No, not a verb.

I still think we should go.

You've been asking me to go for
years, today's the day.

Maybe you should just go?

No, I'm not going
to church alone,

they'll burn me at the stake.

I don't think so, Jessie, I'm
just not up for it.

You're right.

Who needs church?

[LAUGHING] Alright, lets
go church-ing.

Yes?

Yes, oh yeah.

[CHURCH BELLS]

Dear brothers and sisters,

when troubles of any kind come
your way,

consider it a gift coming down
to us from God our Father.

I'm sorry, did he just say your
troubles are a gift?

I'm sorry, I didn't hear.

[SERMON CONTINUES] ...with a
divided loyalty

is as unsettled to as
God our Father...

Excuse me, Ben...
or, your holiness?

Ben's fine.

Or pastor.

You just said that our troubles
are gifts

and if that's true, I've got
some gifts coming to me.

That's not actually
what I was...

Let me just go back...

I think you're right.

The verse should read, "When
troubles of any kind

come your way, consider it an
opportunity for great joy,

for you know that when your
faith is tested,

your endurance has a
chance to grow...

Sorry, jumping in again.

You just said that our troubles
are joy,

which is ridiculous.

No, that's right.

James I.

What did James win?

Its in the bible.

Right.

Okay, here's the thing.

Its actually kind of a
beautiful meaning if-

[DORIS CLEARS HER THROAT]

You know what, we don't
generally ask questions

during the sermon, sorry.

Oh, sorry.

Sorry.

Of course you don't.

Its alright.

Where was I?

That's a question.

Is it?

Also a question.

You know what?

We were almost near the end
anyways, so lets sing.

Hymn number four
hundred,please.

[BAD SINGING]

Is it supposed to be this bad?

I don't think its really that
bad, I mean...

Yeah no, its pretty bad.

This is Lyle's favorite song.

Really?

This was?

Discipline is a virtue.

You didn't make it
through the sermon.

Well, Doris, I had a
bit of a distraction.

Hence, discipline.

We can't afford to lose any
more attendees.

Its good to see you.

Its always good to see you.

Wow.

That was-

Your first time in a church,
I'm guessing.

Mm-hmm.

So, what did you think?

I thought it was interesting.

Yeah, I didn't
love it, honestly.

Not because of you.

I just don't know if I'm really
a church person.

But, we got Mom
out of the house.

Yeah, actually I wanted to
thank you for getting her out.

She needs that.

You're very welcome.

And I kind of think that she-

Where is she going?

I think I know where.

[MUSIC]

[SIGHING] I think you're right.

She's not ready, I'm pushing
her too fast.

Listen, why don't we just worry
about helping her?

Together.

[CHURCH BELLS]

Oh.

No, it's okay.

No, I want to.

I want to.

Okay.

Well, no, that's a lot.

That's a little extreme.

Let's do $25?

$20?

[THROAT CLEARING]

No, yeah, I don't need change.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

That was a lot.

They're going to do well today.

There are a lot of people here.

You should have seen what it
was like years ago when

so many people used to come here
to hear Ben talk.

When he first came here, fresh
out of the seminary,

so young and so inspired.

It's what made Sarah fall in
love with him.

Good morning.

[AUDIENCE] Good morning.

It's good to see
some old friends.

Even some new ones.

Today's sermon is on-

Oh, hey!

Ben, I wanted to...

Don't worry, I promise I'm not
going to interrupt today-

And yet?

And yet, hold on,

I thought I would just go ahead
and ask my questions

at the top before you get to the
notecard thing.

How thoughtful of you.

So, how do you know if this is
the one true religion and, if it

is, does it mean that all of the
other religions are wrong?

Oh good, an easy one.

That was way less
boring this time.

That's our new slogan.

Is it?!

Yeah.

I like that.

I do expect some
royalties, though.

Absolutely.

She was actually singing today.

It was very sweet.

So nicely done.

You want to double down and
take her to lunch?

Yeah-

Excuse me, pastor, the
committee would like to

have a word with you today
before you go.

Of course.

I'll meet you both
at the diner after.

Yes, it's a date.

No, it's not a date.

It's not a date.

It's just the pastor going out
with two women.

So much better.

Yeah, it sounded like it was
going to be in my head

before I said it.

I'm going to go get Mom.

Twice now you've
allowed this woman

to disrupt our services.

What's wrong with a little
spice in our services?

What would you
have me do, Doris?

Uninvite her to church?

You can't sacrifice an entire
congregation for one person.

You're right.

Heaven forbid we promote
sacrifice in church.

Sorry.

I'll talk to her.

Excellent.

Now let's talk about next
Sunday's lessons.

simplesermonsweekly.com has a
lovely one on discipline.

Great.

There you go.

That's the way I like it.

You know, Daphne, I am going to
win you over

whether you like it or not.

No, but you keep trying.

I will, I will!

I'm very tenacious!

Hey!

Hey, how was Doris?

Oh, she's great.

Big fan of yours, by the way.

I thought she might be.

Here you go sweetie.

Thanks.

Oh, you got a menu,
how lovely for you.

Thank you.

Where's Naomi?

She left immediately
after the service.

I think the only way we're
getting her out of the house

is when she thinks she's going
to convert me.

Kind of a shame that church is
only on Sundays.

That's it.

No, seriously.

Ask her if she'll host a bible
study at her house

during the week.

She'd never say no to that.

She would never believe that.

Like a bunch of people are just
going to get together

at a house and study the bible.

Is that a real thing?

Yeah.

Well, just in this town?

Worldwide.

Hey Chazzi.

Well, you're not going to
believe this but,

Jessie and Ben are getting
awful friendly.

You've gone too far.

You've gone to
third Corinthians.

[LAUGHTER]

Okay, I have a Job question.

[PRONOUNCES IT LIKE
JOB / OCCUPATION]

So, Job's entire family is
wiped out,

and I'm just confused why him
getting new kids

would make that okay.

It's Job. [PRONOUNCES IT WITH A
LONG "O" SOUND]

No, in mine it's job.

[PHONE RINGING]

Hey sweetie!

Hey Mom, you sound good.

Well, I'm just very
excited to be

moving in with my new roomie.

That's great, so you're all
packed up then?

Well, it's taking a little bit
longer than I expected.

Mom, the moving truck's will be
there in less than a week.

Can't we postpone them?

I just need a little
bit more time.

No, Mom, we can't.

How's Jessie doing?

Is she helping you or slowing
things down?

I know she means well.

[JESSIE TALKING & LAUGHING IN
THE BACKGROUND]

Is that Jessie?

What's that?

Mom?

You know what, I'm going to
call you back.

[ON PHONE] Hardball, what's
going on?

Hey Jim, what's up, buddy?

Just want to let you know that
everything's going good,

but the homeowner might need a
couple more weeks

to move out.

If that's possible.

If we can't start demolition on
the first,

I've got to go with
the other location.

10 days, Ellison.

You know, I could get used to
this "churching".

Those were really
important questions.

I just never really thought to
ask them before.

You know, it's still
a little early.

Do you want to
do something fun?

No.

Wait.

Yes, do you want to
go see a movie?

Some other evening.

No, it's "Charade", Mom.

I want to go see "Charade".

I've seen it.

Okay, you haven't
seen it with me.

Come on, it starts in thirty
minutes, let's go.

Why don't you go in line, get
us tickets,

and I'll just meet you there
after I finish.

Okay, you're not going to bail
on me, are you?

No, I promise you won't have to
see the movie alone.

No, go, hurry.

Okay.

[MUSIC]

Hey pastor.

Hey guys.

Hey!

Hey, pastor Ben!

Where's Naomi?

She told me to meet her here.

She's not here yet.

She sent me down here to get a
spot in line.

There's never a line here,
is there?

Not ever, no.

Great.

Did she set us up?

What?

No!

Yeah, no!

No, it's stilly.

It's a shame, though.

I was looking forward to seeing
this one.

You've never seen charade?

Hepburn, Grant, mystery comedy.

No.

All right, we are seeing it
right now, come on.

You're going to get it
in a second.

Hi.

Pastor!

Hi!

Pastor Kingston.

I'll take this one, Evon.

Two please.

I got mine.

No, they're $2.50 each.

I'll treat.

Okay, just don't think that I'm
sleeping with you

because you're paying.

She's kidding, we're not-

I don't put out for $2.50.

Right, Doris?

But, you spring for popcorn,
and we'll talk about it.

[FROM HEPBURN ON MOVIE SCREEN]
"You're blocking my view."

"Which view would you prefer?"

"The one you're blocking."

"What's your name?"

"Peter Joshua."

"Mine's Regina Lampert."

"Is there a Mr. Lampert?"

"Yes."

"Good for you."

"No, it isn't,
I'm getting a divorce."

Pastor?

Doris?

Everything okay?

We're fine, thank you.

[LAUGHING]

This is going to be fun.

Don't, please don't.

Wait for it.

You know I'm going to pay for
this later.

I'm sorry.

Not even remotely, no.

That's what I thought.

[LAUGHING]

That was so awesome!

Yeah, amazing for you.

She doesn't run the committee

that holds your job
in the balance.

I think it's pronounced Job.
[SHE SAYS WITH LONG "O" SOUND]

Cute.

Thank you.

Come on, I'll walk you home.

I'll walk you home.

I assume you have a home, yes?

- Yes.
- Good.

Technically it's a room in the
back of a church but, yes.

The commute's great.

Is it?

Yes.

Well, it was half
a degree, actually.

Early childhood education.

I had about a year to go and I
met Chaz and he was older

and successful and I really
wanted to have a family.

You went with Chaz
for stability?

Ha.

Chaz was different then.

It's hard to believe
but he was.

Plus his parents were perfect
role models.

Yeah, they are.

They really took to you.

Naomi especially.

Was that rain?

No.

No?

I think it was.

Okay, come on, I've
got a shortcut.

[THUNDER IN THE DISTANCE]

Shortcut through a cemetery.

This is not creepy at all.

Cemeteries are great.

People are dying
to get in here.

[LAUGHTER]

Somebody's going to have to
teach you

the basic concepts of humor.

Oh yeah, I guess I can admit
you seem...

Kind of funny.

Oh, thanks.

Where did you get that from,
your parents?

Well, I have no idea if my Dad
was funny and I think

probably the only joke in my
Mom's life was having a kid

that she wasn't ready for, so-

I did not know that parents
like Naomi and Lyle existed.

You know, they told
me a little,

but can I ask how you handled
losing Sarah?

It's just finding a routine and
sticking to it.

Oh, the pastor routine?

The pastor routine, yes.

So you didn't stop
believing in God?

Nope.

Can't be mad at someone you
don't believe in.

You're mad?

You're the calmest mad person
I've ever seen.

People know when I'm mad.

There's a lot of yelling.

Yeah, I can see that, I would
imagine so.

Can you?

So you never yell?

No, we're way past yelling.

With Sarah, I...

I asked Him for a lot.

When she got sick,
we asked for a cure.

When she got really sick,
we asked for more time.

And then at the end,

I just asked that
she wouldn't suffer.

We didn't get any of it.

So, I don't ask anymore.

You have to stop,
I didn't recognize you,

I didn't know you.

Okay, so you only push people
you don't know

into open graves.

Yes, that's exactly what I do.

You're lucky I forgive
very quickly.

Says the guy who gives God the
silent treatment.

No, I talk to God all the time.

I just don't ask him for
anything for myself anymore.

Oh, that's very
altruistic of you.

Thank you.

You ask for other people?

Yeah.

Do you ever ask for me?

You?

I pray for you all the time.

You pray for me all the time?

Yeah.

What do you pray for?

I pray that you find what
you're looking for.

Pray that you find happiness.

What does that sound like or
how do you do it?

How?

Yeah, I mean,

would you do it?

Right now?

Yeah, I mean is that weird?

No, that's not weird at all.

I'll pray for you.

Okay.

You ready?

Yes, well, no.

Ready?

I'm nervous.

It's okay.

Here.

[MUSIC]

Heavenly Father,

We thank you for Jessie.

We thank you for her questions.

We hope you help her
find the answers.

We hope you help her find you.

A-men.

A-men.

So now what?

Now we give him a chance to
talk back.

Does he sound even remotely
like Morgan Freeman?

[LAUGHTER]

So?

So.

I will see you later.

You don't want to thank me for
a great first non-date?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

That was really bad aim.

That was not bad for a pastor.

That was pretty tame for a
heathen, though.

We can't.

Okay.

I'm a pastor.

Right, okay.

Woah!

Are you okay?

All good.

[LAUGHTER]

I...

- Good night.
- Good night!

Good night!

Ben, you're not going to take
your truck?

I'll get it later.

[MUSIC SWELLS]

[CRASHING SOUND]

Mom?

Naomi?

Hey.

Hey!

Is it safe?

Who's bright idea was it to put
weights in the attic?

I'm going to guess a man.

Yeah, who's not here to help me
box them up.

Thank you, Charlie.

So?

How was the movie?

It was okay.

Just okay?

Yeah, you know.

Big screen, popcorn.

So it was great?

It was great, yeah.

Wow, Mom, looking around,

there's still a lot of stuff we
still have to pack.

I know.

I wonder if it's going to take
us just a little bit longer

to pack than we
initially thought?

You think?

I do.

I feel like maybe we should get
used to the idea

of being in Bethel Cove
a little longer?

Maybe we should?

Maybe we should.

But you still have
to help me pack.

Yes, yes, I should
be helping you.

[CHURCH BELLS]

We're going to have to get here
earlier next time.

Well...

- Hi.
- Hi.

Okay, I'm going to go
find us a seat.

I'll join you.

You look nice.

You look pretty nice, too.

Hi, Doris.

I wanted to talk to you
about the movie.

I know it may all seem like
innocent fun,

but the pastor of a
church has to

maintain a higher
standard of decency.

Right.

You are so right.

And, Doris, I just want you to
know you have my absolute

word that we will only be
indecent when no one can see us.

I was joking, I'm sorry.

Amusing, I'm sure.

Young lady, I have a
suggestion for you.

Questions should be encouraged,
but in an environment that

everyone can benefit from your
experience level.

I think this church has the
perfect place

for you and your questions.

Right, okay, but I'm just
wondering how do they get two of

every single animal on board
without any of them

attacking and eating each other?

And, really, more to the point,

this is a story that is entirely
about genocide.

Are we all okay with this being
about genocide?

Good morning.

Before we begin, I would just
like to say that I feel very

confident that today's sermon
will be interruption-free.

Let's turn to Matthew 7-7.

Ben, excuse me, sorry.

We just have a couple
of quick questions

because our teacher didn't
answer them.

[LAUGHTER]

That is a really good one.

Uh-huh.

It's going to be a
list of questions.

[MORE LAUGHTER]

Bring it on.

[MUSIC]

Then there's all the family
stuff, there's...

He's my ex-husband's
sister's husband,

so that's like
we're in-laws, right?

No, because we were once,
or twice, removed.

It doesn't matter.

My fear is that it's incest?

It's not, though.

Because we're not actually
related so I think

if you really think it through,
it's probably,

as I'm saying it out loud,

I think it's probably
totally okay.

This was really, helpful.

Thank you for listening.

I'll clear my,
I'll clear it here.

Hey!

Hey.

Speak of the devil.

Wait, no, can I say that?

Yeah, I'll let it slide.

Thank you.

Am I too late for breakfast?

I didn't know you were
going to join me.

I would have waited.

That's a lie, I wouldn't have.

I was so hungry.

Those kids, they really took it
out of me.

You're really great with them,
you know?

Well, I mean, I do have half of
an education degree.

And you have
half a credit card.

Your card was declined so I had
to cut it in half.

I should have seen
this coming, right?

Of course he's going to go
after the money.

Yeah, Chaz has never been
really good at sharing.

No, he has not.

What, I'm supposed to give up
my coffee?

My alone time with Daphne?

No, the church could
use some help.

A little bit in the office,
help out with the youth club?

It would just be a few hours
here and there.

Would you be my boss?

Yes.

Can I date my boss?

Let me check.

Yes.

Yes, then I would
like this job.

You would?

Yes.

Oh, I'm adorable, and-

Hired!

[ALTOGETHER] Done.

[LAUGHING]

[JESSIE] No, I
completely understand.

All guys are
like that, honestly.

And I really hate to
break it to you,

but they don't get any less
stupid as they age.

Pretty much, it's a baseline,
it just keeps going.

Jessie?

Yeah?

What if he doesn't like me?

What?

Alex, he's-

You know what?

I just read this story where
Jesus was talking

about this pearl fisherman

and he finds this beautiful,
amazing pearl.

He sells everything that he has
so that he can

buy this beauty, and he...

Stay with me, what I'm saying
is, you're the pearl.

So, if this boy is too stupid

to see how beautiful you are,

then, girl, that's his loss.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

[CAR HORN HONKS OUTSIDE]

That's your Dad.

Bye guys.

You're going to be here
next week, right?

I hope so.

Bye!

Bye.

Looks like you're having fun.

I am, yes.

Wait, though, if I'm having fun

are you still going to pay me?

No.

Oh, then no, in that case
I am miserable.

I can't believe
you're making me

hang out with these
little monsters.

So, is there any kind of reward
for a great first day?

[MUSIC]

What did you have in mind?

Well, I was thinking...

Let's get something to eat.

[PIANO MUSIC]

[JESSIE & BEN BANTER]

[MOM] Jessie...

[CHAZ] Hi honey, I'm home.

What are you doing here?

I was worried about my girl.

Your girl?

I'm not your girl.

Why don't we all sit down and
talk this through.

I'm sorry, Jess, maybe I made a
mistake by coming here.

Right, well, we all know how
good you are

at making mistakes.

When you didn't sign the
divorce papers-

Wait, wait.

Of course, I signed them.

I definitely signed them.

I practically broke the
sound barrier by

sprinting to the mailbox to get
them to you.

Honey, I never got them.

And when I didn't get them, I
thought that maybe

you were having second thoughts.

I was not having
second thoughts.

I never even had
first thoughts.

Any thoughts I might have had
about you,

they were kind of centered
around dismemberment.

Jessie-

No, it's okay if she hates me.

I hate me, too.

But I'd hate myself more

if I didn't try to
fix our marriage.

We don't have a marriage.

Legally, I'm still
your husband.

No, that's what I'm trying to
say to you

that you are not my husband.

Jessie, will you just sit down

and talk about this, please.

No, I'm not going to sit down

because there's nothing
to talk about.

This is ridiculous.

Maybe we should try to figure
this out.

You want to figure this out?

By all means, the three of you
can sit down

and talk all night
if you want to.

But I'm pretty clear on this.

I'm beat, I'm going to bed.

I had a great day today, in
case you're wondering,

a great day.

Thank you.

Huh, okay.

Well, you guys enjoy
your conversation.

Thanks for coming by, Chaz.

[BEN] Jessie, wait.

[MOM] Let me go check on her.

[SIGH] Wow, Ben, I've got to
say I'm pretty surprised.

Yeah, I'm surprised, too, Chaz.

You really trying to
fix your marriage?

I mean, first you had my
sister, and now my wife?

What's next?

I don't have any pets.

Careful, Charlie.

I just hope that the church
doesn't find out that their

pastor is running around with a
married woman.

So what did she say?

Oh, she is not talking to
anybody tonight.

She is locked in her room.

I don't think you're going to
get her back, babe.

She's been really hurt.

I know, Mom.

Will you please just
talk to her?

Please.

Just give it a
little time, okay?

Let her cool down and I'll talk
to her in the morning,

all right?

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Okay.

[MUSIC]

[BUBBLEWRAP POPPING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Woah, save some for the china.

Honey, he's really
hurting, too.

Couldn't you just
go talk to him?

What did he say to you?

He really wants to make amends
and maybe...

I'm not saying,
"Get back together".

I'm just saying, that maybe you
can forgive him?

Where is he?

He's in his old bedroom up in
the attic.

What are you up to?

I can't get over you.

You look amazing.

There's something different
about you.

Well, I am trying
a new moisturizer.

It's balancing out my T zone.

Okay, there you are.

Joke about everything.

Well, you, my dear,
haven't changed.

Actually, I have.

I've been seeing someone.

Just one?

That is different.

No, it's not like that, it's...

I've been seeing a counselor.

And he says that, in order to
fix my soul,

I need to mend the things that
I've broken.

Starting with our marriage.

We are not married, Chaz.

Legally, we are.

And people in this town might
say that,

in the eyes of God,
we still are.

Right, but those same
people would say

that you have three wives.

Had.

But really only one that I
still love.

Jessie, we were
really good once.

And I want to get that back.

And I'm willing to do anything.

Anything to fix us.

That is, literally all that I
ever wanted you to say Chaz...

before you cheated.

Now it's just irritating.

You're not Sarah, you know
that, right?

What?

People like Ben,
they go for Sarahs.

Not for girls like you.

And there you are.

[SIGH]

Hey.

So...

So.

Yeah.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Sorry.

We didn't realize you
were in conference,

with a woman,
with the door closed.

There's nothing going on in
here, Doris.

That's a shame.

I should go.

Since I'm sure you want
to talk about me.

No, it's not about you.

It's about her.

I know, she interrupts church.

It's an embarrassment.

Attendance has been way up.

We've been hearing some very
upsetting things-

We're concerned about
your intentions.

And how those intentions
reflect on the church.

I mean, if I would have known
she would come to this town

and cause this much trouble,

I never would have
had her come.

You couldn't have known, honey.

I just want to
make things right.

I feel like she's making me to
be the bad guy

and this is my town, this is
where I grew up.

We're here for you.

All of us.

I'm going to do
the right thing.

You're going to be at church on
Sunday, yeah?

I'm wherever you are, honey.

Thank you, Daphne.

[PASTOR] Good
morning, everyone.

[AUDIENCE] Good morning.

Now, I know that many of you

may have some questions today.

That's great, but with so many
people here,

we ask that you use the cards

provided in the pews to-

Actually, do you mind if I
share what I wrote?

I do, Chaz, the point
was to wait.

I truly am grateful to
be here today.

Many of you knew me as a kid

and all the mistakes
that I made.

Well, I'm here today because
I'm trying to get my life

back on the right path.

You got all that to fit
on your card?

Obviously I need
everyone's prayers.

Especially for my wife and me.

Ex-wife.

One of several, actually.

Charlie, why don't
you sit down-

No, Mom, I just need to know,

how am I supposed to
fix my marriage

when my wife is being lusted
after by your pastor?

Again, ex-wife.

Which is because of you.

We can fix it, Jess.

Malachi 2-16.

God says he hates divorce.

And Matthew 5 allows it if
someone is unfaithful.

That's if he cheats
on you, Jezebel.

He did cheat on me.

And don't call me Jezebel.

That's a bad thing, right?

Jezebel?

Alright, I'm glad everyone's
learning their Bible, but Chaz

I think this is a conversation
to be had in private.

Actually it effects all of us
if you use church funds to

fool around with a married woman
in your office.

That has never happened.

[AUDIENCE ARGUES]

[LOUD WHISTLE]

To all of our guests,
we apologize.

This embarrassment was to be
addressed after the service,

but I can see something has to
be done right away.

Pastor Kingston,
please step down.

[MOM] Doris, Ben has done
absolutely nothing wrong-

The committee has
already decided.

He cannot be the pastor

as long as he's under this
woman's spell.

Doris, I am so sick of you
talking to Jessie like-

No, no, no.

You see what you're
doing, right?

This is exactly what he wanted.

Are you just here to hurt us?

Jess...

Jessie, Charlie's heart is in
the right place.

Can't you tell he's
suffering, too?

This guy is suffering?

I don't think so.

That is the face of pure evil.

Jessie,

I love you but he's my son.

Okay, you're right.

He is your son.

I'm sorry, everyone.

I just realized that I don't
have a place here.

I release your pastor
from my spell.

[PASTOR] Jessie!

[MUSIC]

Jessie, stop!

You should go back inside, Ben.

I didn't even realize
this before,

but you are really
needed in there.

They are pretty messed up.

I'm not worried about them
right now.

Do you even realize what just
happened in there?

I just got you fired
from a church.

Chaz did that, okay?

And that will blow over.

No one listens to Chaz.

You'll get your divorce.

And you and I, we can pick up
right where we left off.

Let's talk about where we left
off, actually, Ben.

Because you are totally right.

My divorce is going to go away.

It's going to be finalized and
it's going to be done.

But you...

Do you even realize that you're
wearing your wedding ring?

That every single day you have
worn your wedding ring?

When you kiss me, it's on.

My marriage is done,
Ben, it's over.

But you have been wearing that
ring ever since I got here.

Every time you've kissed me,
that has been on your finger.

It's not about Chaz.

Ben, you're not the other man.

I'm the other woman.

And I'm not going
to do it anymore.

[MUSIC SWELLS]

[MUSIC]

[PIANO MUSIC]

[PIANO MUSIC]

[DOOR BELL]

Excuse me.

I'm sorry, I'm looking
for Chaz Ellis.

He isn't here right now.

Can I help you?

I'm his mother.

Oh, thank goodness you're not
the squatter.

The squatter?

He really did get the old bag
to pack up.

He said he would but I half
didn't believe him.

Is he here because we were
supposed to meet at the diner

and he didn't show-

I'm sorry, you are?

Jim Nueford, I'm sure Chaz has
mentioned me.

Of course.

You aught to be proud
of that boy.

The amount he negotiated

to broker the close
of this last holdout,

just between you and me,

we're paying more to him than
we are for the house.

I'm sorry, did I just say
something wrong?

Would you come
in a minute, please?

[MUSIC]

Hey Daphne.

What are you doing?

Practicing my talent for the Ms.
Virginia pageant.

Isn't it obvious?

Whoa, Daphne, what's wrong?

You tricked me into spreading
rumors about her.

Whoa, I didn't ask you
to do anything.

The only thing that Jessie
ever did wrong

was fall for you.

But I guess we
all make mistakes.

You know I was going to ask you

to come to New York with me,

but I guess you want to be a
waitress in a dead end diner.

[DINER CROWD HUSHES]

I own this dead
end diner, Chaz.

I bought it three years ago

and it makes me a lot of money.

But even if I were,
"just a waitress",

I wouldn't waste one more
minute on you.

So I guess the special's
out of the question?

Oh no, let me get that
for you, sweetie.

One special - to go!

What are you still
doing here, Chaz?

Shouldn't you be winning
back your wife?

Oh, don't worry, Benny, I've
still got plenty of leftovers

you can pick through.

[MUSIC]

[DISHES CRASHING]

[DAPHNE] What are you doing?!

[DORIS] Pastor Kingston!

[ALTOGETHER] He started it!

Even with the young woman gone,

I can see her influence is still
corrupting you.

Perhaps a vote for revocation
is still in order.

I recommend you
prepare a sermon-

No, you know what?

I'll prepare my own sermon.

[PIANO MUSIC / TRAFFIC SOUNDS]

[CHURCH BELLS]

Hey Mom.

Sorry I'm late.

Now what happened?

The moving truck will be here
any second.

I met your friend Mr. Nueford.

This was the last lot they
needed in order to build.

I saw an opportunity
and I took it.

How bad is it,
your money problems?

Look, I had an investment.

It was a sure-fire thing, and
then the economy-

You don't love her, do you?

You just needed me
to leave here.

Well, I am sorry.

For what?

I'm not leaving, Charlie.

Bethel Cove is my home.

Mom, please don't
start this again.

My community is here.

My church is here, Dad and
Sarah are here-

No, they're not, Mom,
they're dead!

I'm all you've got left, and
I'm not here.

Mom, if the house
isn't empty tonight-

I'm not leaving.

You can have the house,

but you have to let Jessie go.

You're going to choose
Jessie over me?

Family's not about
choosing sides.

That's all this has been about!

Let her be.

You know what?

Doesn't matter.

It's fine.

So, I guess we have a deal.

Someday you're going to
want to come home.

And your pride's going to get
in your way.

And you're going to feel

that it's too late.

It's never too late.

[CHURCH BELLS]

[PIANO MUSIC]

What have you got against me?

I'm sorry, I didn't-

I know the tone.

I've had conversations like
that myself.

Please, go ahead.

No, I don't need to.

I haven't eaten chocolate
for a year.

And I'm still gaining weight!

The acoustics in here are great
for shouting.

They're even better
for listening.

Stay as long as you need.

[MUSIC]

I'm lost.

I don't know if you're there,

but if you are,

could you just tell me
where to go?

I'm listening.

[SONG]

Okay, let's talk.

Good morning.

Good morning.

It looks like you had
quite a night.

I did.

Coffee, thank God.

And the man who works for Him.

You don't have any Tobasco
sauce, do you?

No, I'm sorry.

So, are you still angry?

Yes, I'm still very angry.

But I realized something
last night.

You can't be mad at someone you
don't believe in.

Yeah, very cool.

[PHONE BUZZING]

You should probably get that.

Somebody's very popular.

I guess so.

[PASTOR] The good shepherd,

that's what Jesus
called himself.

And he shared with us a parable
about a good shepherd.

Who left his entire flock to
seek out one single lost sheep.

Why?

Was he just really bad at math?

[AUDIENCE CHUCKLES]

Or maybe, he knew that
everyone matters.

Somehow, especially,
the lost ones.

We recently had a lost sheep.

Only she didn't wander off.

We pushed her away.

Claiming she was
a bad influence.

How could she be
a bad influence?

She inspired me.

How could she be
a bad influence?

She filled these pews.

I'm going to find Jessie.

And if that is me giving in to
a bad influence,

well then,

I quit.

[JESSIE CLEARS HER THROAT]

I'm sorry to interrupt.

Hi.

Hi.

I got your messages.

And I got your messages.

And your messages.

And I called my Mom.

And she told me that you
trashed the diner?

And that you had this whole
plan to quit your job,

so I thought that I should come
here in person,

and tell you that I-

[MOM] Come on.

Right, okay.

Hello, everyone.

I wanted to say, in person,
that I think

that a food fighting preacher
is awesome.

[LAUGHTER]

And I think it's probably
something that this town needs.

Yeah?

[AUDIENCE] Yeah.

Because we all learn from you.

Like how you taught me with
God, I'm never alone.

I know that now.

So I think you should stay.

And I think I should stay.

And I promise I will take as
much or as little of you

as you give to me.

I'm sorry that I pushed you.

I needed you to push me.

I needed you.

Oh, no ring.

You really were
coming after me.

Oh yeah, truck's all packed up.

[DORIS] Pastor, we
have a question.

Yeah, you guys going to ever
kiss, or what?

[LAUGHTER]

[MUSIC / APPLAUSE]

Doris, that was my
kind of question.

Yes, more questions, please.

[LAUGHTER]

[PIANO MUSIC]

We are going to be late, again.

We are not going to be late.

You know I like to
make an entrance.

Anyway, it's not my fault.

M was up crying half the night.

[MOM TO BABY] Okay, Mr.,
let's go.

Are you ready to
interrupt your Daddy?

Just like your Mommy.

Ha.

Hi.

Oh, I wrote some jokes for you.

No, I have my own.

Those are funny jokes.

So maybe do those instead?

Okay, yeah, I'll try.

Hello!

Come on, come on,
the service is starting.

And since we owe it all to her,

I'm going to ask my beautiful
wife, Jessie, to host.

Thank you, sweetie.

You're welcome.

Okay, so let's start with a

non-crossword related inquiry,
okay Eddie?

Any other questions, guys?

Okay.

Alright, let's get started.

Coming right over here...
