[Ryan] On Thanksgiving, when I bumped into Ashley, we kissed.

It's nothing to be nervous about, Erin.

People move. Maybe not the Baxters, but people all over.

I don't think you realize how much you're asking me to give up.

A while ago, before everything happened,

I talked to Pastor Mark about starting a ministry

for women here in the church

who are also struggling in their marriages.

I think that's wonderful.

Hey, Lori. Did you find someone to work with yet on the assignment?

I thought we were on different sides.

So did I.

[Ashley] Belinda, I know about the checks you're hiding.

-You're done. -What?

I don't wanna see you in this building again. You're fired.

I know about you and Ryan, about your kiss.

[theme song playing]

? '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 ?

Say something.

I'm sorry, okay?

It happened when you were still married to Tim.

Married to Tim? Forgive me.

Please stir things up with my ex-boyfriend

while my marriage is falling apart.

I'm not trying to justify it.

I'm just saying it was bad timing

to tell you about it then.

Bad timing for who?

Kari, I'm sorry. It was one kiss. It was nothing more.

Oh, I can't listen to you right now.

It was a mistake. It was a huge mistake.

Just so you know, I'm the one who was defending you

to Mom and Dad when you don't come to church.

I'm the one who fights with Luke

when he talks about you behind your back.

I'm one the one who was changing Cole's diapers...

I get it. I'm a screw up.

I can't do anything right, including my job,

which I got fired from earlier today.

No. No, no, no. You do not get to turn this around.

I'm not turning anything around.

Everyone is bound to make mistakes, Ash.

My biggest problem isn't your kiss,

my biggest problem is that I had to hear about it from him.

You're my sister.

That's never gonna change.

I'll probably forgive you sooner than you deserve.

I'm... just disappointed.

[sighs]

Mark would love this.

Hey.

Everything all right?

Not really.

What's up?

I know you don't like to take sides when the Baxter girls fight,

but Ashley and I...

are having issues.

Well, you two have been known to butt heads in the past.

Well, we wouldn't if she could just get her act together.

Ever.

Honey...

always be humble, gentle and patient.

Hey, Ryan.

Or maybe just one of those virtues at a time.

I'll be right here if you need me.

-Kari, can we talk? -I'm a little busy.

Please.

I just want you to know that what happened that night was a mistake.

It meant nothing to me.

I talked to Ashley. She said the same thing.

So, if it didn't mean anything to either of you,

then how exactly did it happen?

I don't know.

But you have to believe that I'm sorry.

I am.

Look, I know you weren't trying to hurt me,

but you weren't exactly thinking of me in that moment either.

So, what can I do to make it better?

I need some space today, Ryan.

-And tomorrow? -I don't know.

[Rosenmann] Thank you.

Still surprised that we worked together?

Impressed.

But opposition is always the best breeding ground for growth.

Would you say that we've grown?

I'd say you have, thanks to me.

"God Vs. The Inner Self

by Lori Callahan and Luke Baxter."

I look forward to reading this great experiment.

Thanks.

It's been, uh, eye opening.

Oh, good, you're still here.

Barely.

After today, I feel like I could sleep for a week.

Aw. Well, I have good news for you.

Someone responded to your post.

They want to come in and talk with you about their marriage.

Oh. Wow!

Is everything okay?

Yes. It's more than okay.

I, I actually really needed that news today.

-Good. -Is it a couple?

Um, a young woman.

She said that she preferred to remain anonymous.

Interesting.

Well, does Friday morning work for you?

I'll be here. Thank you, Pastor Mariana.

You're welcome.

-We should celebrate our assignment. -Totally.

You want to grab a smoothie or something?

Really?

I was thinking more like dinner tomorrow night.

Dinner?

Yeah. You eat it, right?

Well, yeah, but only every other night.

-I'm kidding. -Oh. [chuckles]

So, tomorrow night.

Just so I'm clear, is...

Is this dinner just two friends grabbing a meal or...

I don't know.

I'd say it depends on how the dinner goes.

Text you in the morning.

You look like you need much more than coffee.

Sorry about all this, Ash.

When it rains, it pours, huh?

This feels like a monsoon.

Okay.

I'm here to help you dig out.

Or I guess swim out.

First things first.

Based on what you've explained so far,

you deserve this job back.

Well, unless you're suggesting we break into the house

and Belinda's office, I don't know how to get proof.

The proof should be your word, Ash.

You've done nothing but an incredible job over there

and been nothing but honest.

I think you go to Lu and tell her everything.

Ask her to check the office

for the good of the people she's entrusted to care for.

Look at you being all serious.

I don't like people treating my girl poorly.

Yeah, well, it may be payback for what I did to my sister.

Item number two.

-Why do I keep doing this? -Doing what?

Disappointing people, making mistakes, hurting people.

Just ends up hurting me.

Look, Ashley, I don't know everything that happened in Paris,

but I know whatever it was, it's still with you.

I think you need to let it out.

I'm afraid that will make everything worse.

I know.

But I also know the people in your world, me included.

We love you, Ashley.

We're here for you whenever you're ready.

Now, let's go find an outfit that says

give me my job back, Belinda.

Technically, it's Lu.

Come on.

Hi, Lu.

I'd like to talk to you about why I got fired.

Fired?

I was told that you quit without notice, Ashley.

Of course Belinda said that.

Lu, Belinda has secrets,

and knowing her secrets is what got me fired.

Belinda has worked for me for almost ten years.

I'm sorry, but you can't trust her.

If you're making some kind of accusation,

I'm gonna ask for specifics.

I have evidence.

I'm sorry we have to do this, but it's the only way.

What exactly are we looking for?

-Ashley... -Can you open this one?

Here it is. They're in here.

What?

No.

No, no, no.

The checks were in here.

What checks are you talking about?

Checks from the residents.

Belinda is stealing from their bank accounts.

Ashley, without any evidence,

it's your word against Belinda's.

And she's been working with the elderly her entire adult life.

Am I allowed to be in here?

You're fine, Irvel.

We were just leaving.

You know Ashley, right?

Hi, Irvel.

Have you been keeping up with charades?

I've never met this woman.

Gone with the Wind?

Irvel, you remember.

Their condition worsens when their routine is disturbed,

that's always why I'm so upset when people leave.

Look, maybe there's another explanation.

Belinda's coming in early, but if you stay...

I shouldn't be here.

But if somebody is stealing, I need to find out.

I must have been wrong.

-What? -I might not have seen

what I thought I saw.

-Just forget it. -But...

[sighs]

Hey, God, it's me.

It's been a while.

Probably too long.

So long I don't really remember how to do this.

I remember when we were little,

Mom used to say, "You don't have to come to God

with anything specific.

You can just say hello.

I'm here.

He wants to hear from you."

Is that true?

It's hard to believe you'd wanna hear from me.

Anyway, I, um...

I don't really know...

what I wanna say...

or what I need to say.

But I think I'm lost.

I think I've been lost for a long time actually.

[sniffles]

[breathes deeply]

So, I guess the best I can do right now is just say,

"Hello. I'm here."

No, I'm just saying

the servers shouldn't have to sing "Happy Birthday" twice,

especially if both tables are sitting right next to each other.

Just add in the other name, sing it to both tables.

I think they just want their customers to feel special.

I did not feel special listening to the same song twice.

So, we made it to the end of the night.

-Mmm-hmm. -What's the verdict?

Friends or...

Mmm. I can't answer that unless you finish your question.

Oh, man. You're tough.

I've heard that once or twice.

I don't think you'd know what to do with me.

-Oh, yeah? -Mmm-mmm.

What's that supposed to mean?

Sweet, perfect Luke Baxter and this non-believer.

I'm not perfect.

Good. Neither am I.

Hey, by the way, do you know

the fastest way to get to the highway from here?

Um, yeah. If you go down the hill,

make a right, and then you'll see...

I had a lot of fun tonight.

Me, too.

Can we do this again?

Yes.

-Goodnight. -Goodnight.

Hey, Erin. What are you doing here?

Wait. You're here for counseling?

I responded anonymously because I didn't think

I'd actually come, and now that I'm here,

I don't know if I'm ready to talk about it.

But you did come.

Better with your sister than someone random.

Right?

Come on. Come sit.

So, where should I start?

Whatever comes to mind.

I'm not moving to Texas with Sam.

I can't believe I just said that out loud.

-Go on. -I just can't do it.

Leave family, leave home.

This is where I belong. I know that in my heart.

Have you told Sam this yet?

Sam's a little preoccupied with his dream job around the corner,

and it doesn't help that's he's working in Texas during the week now.

Is that what's bothering you?

You feel like he doesn't have time for you anymore?

It's part of it.

But even when we are together,

I don't feel like myself with him.

All I feel is distance.

When did that start?

Around the time he started looking for a new job.

He just became like this crazy, career-obsessed person.

And every time I tried to bring it up,

we would argue about how I'm too attached to our family

and how I need to be more independent.

It sounds like Sam is going through his own transition.

He might be having trouble processing it himself.

Yeah. I hate it.

Feels good to say it out loud, doesn't it?

Really good.

You know, I don't even think I really came here for advice.

I think I just needed to hear myself

to know how certain I am.

When Tim and I were having our problems,

I felt like I couldn't tell anyone

what we were really going through.

There were days when all I felt was anger.

And others, I wanted to give up.

But you didn't.

You got through it.

Maybe I'm not as strong as you.

Erin, my faith is what gives me strength,

and your faith will give you yours.

But what does that really mean?

It means trusting that God will show you the path

if you're patient

with Sam and yourself.

[cell phone vibrating]

Hello.

[Lu] Good morning, Ashley. Are you busy?

No. Is everything okay?

It's about the missing checks.

Ashley, you are right.

Belinda's been stealing from the residents.

The bank showed us trails

from their accounts to Belinda's accounts.

So, what happens next?

Well, Sunset Hills is in the clear

since we brought this to the authorities,

but two families are pressing charges against Belinda.

It doesn't look good for her.

No, I mean, what happens to Sunset Hills and Helen and Irvel?

Well, that's why I'm calling.

Ashley, I'd like you to come back

and be the manager here.

The bump in pay wouldn't be much,

but you'd be able to run things the way you want.

Ashley, are you there?

Yes. Yes, I would love to.

Great.

All right. Well, we can start looking for new candidates

for your old position tomorrow.

That sounds amazing. Thank you so much.

No, Ashley, I am the one who's thanking you.

See you tomorrow.

Yes! Yes, yes, yes!

Yes, I'd be happy to provide a reference.

Who is the candidate?

Oh, Reagan.

And you're based in California?

Well, I can tell you

she is an excellent employee.

And if you speak with her, tell her she's missed.

Hi.

Oh.

Your showroom is...

really nice.

Sorry I've never been here.

Yeah.

I learned to stop being offended by that a long time ago.

I wanted to say I'm sorry.

Truly.

What I did was wrong,

and keeping it from you was worse,

and the fact that you're my sister

just makes it truly cruel.

Wow!

And I wanted to ask for your forgiveness

even though I know I don't deserve it.

Ashley, everyone deserves forgiveness.

Yeah, I don't know if I believe that.

Yeah, I think that's part of your problem.

Please do not try to explain me to myself.

I know that there are issues I need to resolve

and I'm trying to work on them.

Starting now.

What are you doing?

I'm going to give you a hug.

So, then I'm forgiven?

You were forgiven the moment you walked in that door.

That's not what this hug is for.

Thanks.

I really think I needed that.

I know.

It's always here.

[Elizabeth] Next time on The Baxters...

Sam's home this week,

and last night, we sat in the kitchen

and talked till the sun came up.

I forgot how nice it could be.

[Landon] You seem really happy, Ashley.

I'm getting there.

Just in time for me to leave for California.

I'll try to speed it up.

-[Ryan] Hey. -Hey. Come here.

You have always had a place in my heart.

The ball's in your court.

All you keep telling me to do is to put my faith in God.

That's all anyone can do right now, Luke.

Yeah, well, it's not enough for me, Dad.

[stutters] I can't be here right now.
