[Elizabeth] Hello, Lillian.

I just got your house listing,

and I'd love to see you.

Will you please call me back?

[Kari] Tim is in love with another woman.

What can we do to help?

Pray for us.

And try not to hate him.

Tim, our first baby was a girl and...

Then God's blessing us again

with a different life.

Kari, God wants us to celebrate.

And that's what our baby needs, too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

The Ashford Dash, Luke?

Why did you even come?

I really don't know.

? 'Cause life has a way Of pulling us under ?

? But we'll stick it out ?

? If we got each other ?

? When it all feels too much ?

? I know you'll come running For me ?

? Through the highs and lows We'll find our way home ?

? Family ?

? Oh, oh, oh ?

? Family ?

[John grunts]

-Dad? -In the kitchen.

Hey, Maddie!

Come here, you.

Hey, guess what? Guess what?

The toy room is all set up for you upstairs.

So you guys better get up there, okay?

Come on. Go. [grunts]

Come on, girls, let's go.

Peter, no promises, I'll try to save you some turkey.

Happy Thanksgiving, Dad.

-Ah, hon. -Hi.

[kisses] Thank you.

Hmm, something smells good.

Oh, yeah, that would be my turkey.

I think, it might be Mom's pies.

-[laughs] -Ouch.

Where is everyone?

Ah, they're at church.

The supermarket donated more turkeys

than ever before.

Thank you so much for helping me

with the turkey drive.

Well, thank you.

I heard so many wonderful things

about this community.

I didn't hesitate when Pastor Mark offered me the position.

I'll probably miss the California sunshine come February.

-[laughs] -But I think it is important

to challenge yourself.

Change is good.

Even when it's uncomfortable.

Especially when it's uncomfortable.

Oh, Pastor Mariana, this is my son, Luke.

-Hi. -Nice to meet you.

And his girlfriend, Reagan.

-Hi. -Hi.

Thank you for helping out today.

Oh, it's our pleasure.

Pastor Mariana, I just moved here

about a year ago, so I can assure you

that you'll have an easy adjustment.

All right.

I shall take this one out to the car.

Are you sure? It's pretty heavy.

You think your mom is weak?

[laughs] Kind of, yeah.

All right. Well, I officially stand corrected.

Yeah, they won't be making that mistake again.

[Erin] We're here.

-Hey. -Hey.

Hey.

Hi.

-Happy Thanksgiving. -Happy Thanksgiving.

It smells so good.

Hello.

Your husband drives like a madman.

You think everyone drives like a madman.

She can't help it. It's the teacher in her.

[Erin] Okay, prepare and prevent,

don't repair and repent.

That's my motto.

That's adorable.

Are you sure we're even related?

Well, I am 99...

Well, I...

I think... I'm pretty positive we are.

You hesitated.

Elizabeth.

Wow.

This is a great space.

What is it used for?

[Elizabeth] It's just an oversized closet.

[Pastor Mariana] It has so much potential.

You're right.

[Luke] This one is off to the Pearson family.

Thank you.

Hey, I have an embarrassing confession.

Try me.

I'm nervous to be with the rest of your family.

What?

Why? You've already met most of them.

Oh, no. Not Erin and Brooke.

What if they don't like me?

Not possible.

Sisters are very protective of their brothers.

Okay, it's normal for me to be nervous.

Especially considering, my boyfriend has four of them.

Yeah. Well, look,

Erin and Brooke are the easy ones.

Thanks. Trust me,

you have nothing to be nervous about.

Once you've survived Ashley,

it's pretty smooth sailing.

[engine revving]

[breathing heavily]

[man] Whoa, whoa. Watch out!

-[engine accelerating] -[screams]

[crashing and clanking sound]

[Cole] Mommy, are we going to Granny's soon?

In a little bit, baby.

Mommy's not quite ready to go to Grandma's yet.

Hey, car's loaded. Almost ready?

I don't like the cake.

What? Since when?

What if we just tell them

without all this hubbub?

Oh, what hubbub? It's a cake.

It just feels like this huge announcement.

Isn't it?

I just don't like the cake.

[inhales] No cake.

Got it.

[John] Baxter Bowl cannot start

without the official Baxter Bowl jersey.

[all cheering]

Now...

[vocalizing]

Erin Baxter.

[all cheering]

[John] There we go.

Peter, where are ya?

Here we go. Sam.

Reagan, it's been a while

since we've had a new player.

I'm sorry, but we're a jersey short.

Oh, no, it's no problem.

I'll just, you know, have to earn mine for next year.

Hey, why don't you take mine?

No, I can never. It's... [laughs]

Do you think I wanna play in this?

-Are you sure? -Yes.

-Absolutely. -Thank you.

Let's see.

Okay.

Hey.

[all exclaiming]

All right. Nice.

Thank you.

Thank you, guys.

All right, let's go, everybody in. Come on.

-Bring it in. Bring it in. -Come on.

Baxter on three. One, two, three...

[all] Baxter!

[screaming]

Yes!

Ha ha.

[both] B-A-X-T-E-R!

[cheering]

[laughing and screaming]

Whoo! Hit it, boy.

[laughing and shouting]

[John] Time-out, time-out, time-out.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I don't know how much longer we can wait for Ashley.

-Have you called her? -Uh-huh.

Called her twice.

Both times she said she was on her way.

And if she's not?

Well, then, we'll start without her.

I mean, she's grown up,

and she knows what time we were eating.

Need a hand?

Oh.

No, we got it.

Yep. We're almost ready to bring the food out.

[inhales]

Before we sit down, uh,

I just wanted to say how thankful I am

that you both have accepted me back into your family.

My actions hurt you, too,

and that's something I have to live with.

You didn't have to accept my apologies

but you did.

And every day, I make a promise to myself

to be worthy of them.

It's important for me that you know how grateful I am.

Without your support there wouldn't have been a second chance.

Well, I...

appreciate your courage, son.

And your humility.

[John] I know it can't be easy coming over here

and facing everyone.

[smirks]

[chuckles]

Believe it or not,

this is, actually, the easy part.

Face myself...

That's been the real challenge.

One day at a time.

That's right.

[John] Dear, God...

Today we thank You

for Your amazing power.

[Kari] Go see Grandma.

[John] And we thank You for this Earth

and our home.

And we thank You for your goodness

and Your blessings.

Perfect. All right, come on.

[John] And we thank You for Your love

and Your care.

And we thank You for...

Sorry.

Happy Thanksgiving.

[all] Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi, Cole.

Hey, Brooke, why don't you take

all the kids to the special table?

Absolutely.

[Brooke] Why don't you...

[John laughing]

Glad you could squeeze us in.

[John] And Lord, we thank You

for our children.

All of them.

And our family.

And friends.

Bless them with Your grace and Your hope,

and protect them with Your truth and your strength.

And on this day of new beginnings,

we celebrate You with hearts filled with love.

And thanks. In Jesus' name. Amen.

[all] Amen.

Uh, speaking of being thankful for children,

we just found out we're having a girl.

-[all gasp] -It's wonderful.

[Kari] Yep. It's a little girl.

[Brooke] Buckle up.

-[all laughing] -Yeah.

Well, that's terrific.

Congratulations, honey.

We have all the hand-me-downs you need.

Oh, yeah. Please, come get them immediately.

[John] Okay, wait. Hang on.

I think I have to make an amendment

to the prayer.

[all chuckle]

And Lord,

thank You for our new baby granddaughter.

You are an amazing God. Amen.

[all agreeing]

Let's eat. Come on.

-Is that turkey? -Mom, I love your stuffing.

I said I was sorry.

I'm not the one you need to apologize to.

Cole needs you to be accountable and responsible.

And soon he's gonna have to arrive at school.

He's gonna have to be picked up from play dates

and all on time.

Once again this becomes about me being a bad mom.

[sighs]

Ashley.

You're right. Okay.

I'm criticizing, not helping.

But I'm worried about you.

I wanna see you building your life,

growing.

Maybe it's time you got a job.

This settlement money won't last forever,

and it would help you get into a practice of a routine,

What would I do with Cole?

Well, if you were working,

I would take care of Cole.

Oh...

Okay.

So, now I have to get a job

in order for you to wanna watch Cole.

Whatever this is, leave me out of it.

[Ashley] Mom's making me get a job.

-Finally. -What?

You didn't work for years.

[Brooke] I was in medical school, Ash.

Okay. Well, I'm just saying

there is a double standard in this family.

Like, no one nags you about not going to church.

I go to the hospital every Sunday.

And no one nags you, either.

Right, not out loud,

but I see judgement in your eyes

every single Sunday I drop Cole off.

Happy?

I will never forget, uh, coming downstairs

and seeing her standing in front of the refrigerator,

eating sour cream

right out of the carton.

That story again, really?

Wow. Whatever the baby wants,

the baby gets.

Kari, what about you?

Have you had any weird cravings?

[Kari] I don't know about anything weird,

but I do wake up almost every night,

craving that black garlic chocolate coconut cake

from our honeymoon.

Here we go again.

It was the best dessert.

We know.

We all know.

Tim has been saying

he's gonna have it flown in for years.

Trust me, buddy, do it now.

Pregnancy cravings are terrifying.

Excuse me while I go call Hawaii.

Oh, hey. Did you guys see the flyer

about the Ashford house being for sale?

No. Mom, did you know?

[Elizabeth] Umm...

Yeah.

I reached out to Lillian.

Why?

Uh...

I had this idea

that I thought would help bring Lillian some closure.

Something that might bring all of us some closure.

[chuckles]

And by all of us,

you mean me?

Oh.

So, there's this really large room

down at the church,

and it's being used mostly for storage,

but I want to turn it into a nursery.

-Remember Pastor Mark? -Yeah.

...Always said that young couples in the community

wouldn't wanna walk in there with crying babies.

So, I thought if we had a room that was safe

and was fun,

then the kids could stay there

and the parents could come into service together.

-That's a great idea. -Hmm.

There were so many Sundays

where either Peter or I had to stay home

because the kids were just too little to sit.

Oh, yeah. When you guys were little,

we used to drag you right into the church,

we tortured the entire congregation.

[all laugh]

[Elizabeth] Exactly.

Anyway, I have this dream

that Lillian will help me with the nursery.

Mom, why're you doing this?

Because I wanna help.

Mom, she hasn't answered your calls,

so just leave her alone.

Ash, relax.

Kari, do not tell me to relax. Okay?

You know what Mom is doing.

This isn't about Lillian, it's about me.

She's always telling me to move on,

get over it, get a job.

Watch your tone, Ashley.

[Luke] Yeah. Ash, I think you're forgetting

that Colton was my best friend,

and that this isn't just about you.

Okay. Well, I was the only one driving the car he died in, so...

I'm sorry, everyone.

It's not your fault.

Why don't I go get some ice cream

-for the table? -Uh, that's a great idea.

Get a lot.

[blowing air]

You okay?

Yeah.

Not the first time Ashley Baxter's left the family meal.

I didn't know that she was driving the car.

Colton had been over here,

just hanging out with me all day,

and Ashley actually offered him a ride home.

Apparently, at the same time

some drunk guy decided to leave the bar,

and drive himself home.

I'm sorry. We... we don't need to talk about this.

No, no. It's okay, really.

But I've had a lot of time to work through it

and pray on it.

Ashley has opted against that.

Poor Ashley.

"Poor Ashley"?

The pain and the guilt

that she's probably harboring inside.

Between that, and Paris, the amount of stuff

that she's been through.

[sighs] It's...

It's no wonder she's so complicated.

Ash.

Hey.

Let me guess...

Taking a Baxter breather?

[chuckles] Yeah.

Something like that.

You?

Well, my family eats at 3:00 every year.

So, by the time the sun goes down,

everybody's in a food coma.

And you decided to take a jog

through your ex-girlfriend's neighborhood?

[inaudible]

Does it sound less bad

if I say it happened subconsciously?

[Ashley chuckles]

Ashley's been gone for a while.

You think she's okay?

[Kari] She'll be fine.

I just wish she didn't do this when we were all together.

She needs to learn some self-control.

I know.

Aren't you freezing?

It's not too bad.

[Brooke] Your baby girl might feel differently.

So?

So?

Kari, I've known you my whole life.

Something's bothering you.

Off the record?

It's the fact that we're pregnant

with a baby girl.

Again.

Kari, this pregnancy's totally different.

Every pregnancy is.

I know, but...

It's...

I'm still scared.

I don't think I could survive losing another baby.

Is Tim feeling the same way?

Tim is trying to be optimistic.

I think for me.

Probably for himself, too.

He's been praying a lot.

But I...

You can tell me anything, Kari.

I have been struggling

to talk to God about this.

To ask for His strength.

Why?

Because it feels like

if I say it out loud,

that I'm terrified,

it just makes it that more real.

I know, it's horrible.

No, it's not.

It's honest.

Which is what God has been asking from us

this whole time.

Will you let me pray for you and the baby?

I don't have to say anything out loud.

[exhales]

[Ashley] I don't know.

Sometimes I feel like I'm on Planet Ashley.

Population: One.

I think, my parents have officially

given up on me.

Are you forgetting that I know your parents?

And they'd never give up on you.

Yeah.

Sometimes I wish they would.

It'd save me from constantly having to explain myself.

Look...

I don't know everything that you're going through.

But I know the world is full of people

that don't fit in.

And if you ask me...

They're usually the most interesting.

Doesn't make it any less lonely.

Hey.

If you ever need anybody to talk to...

I'm only a phone call away.

I'm...

I'm sorry.

No, I'm... I'm sorry.

I, I ju... I don't know why... I...

I should go.

I'll see you around. Okay, Ash?

[sighs]

[Elizabeth] Next time on The Baxters...

[Tim] With God on my side, I stand before you today

six months sober.

But it wasn't just God next to me

giving me strength,

it was the woman on the other side.

[Elizabeth] I have this friend,

her son was killed in a car accident.

I know that her heart needs some closure.

But Lillian hasn't returned my calls for years.

Lillian.

Hi.

[Luke] Come on, Ash, talk to me.

You're here trying to fix this,

like you can't look me in the eye.

Ever since your best friend died, and I did it.

[Elizabeth] Where's your mommy?

Ashley's, uh, run away, again.

Is Professor Jacobs home?

He's on his way.

-Then I'll wait. -[gun clicks]

[screams and gasps]
