- [flustered] Oh man, Ruby.

Next time you do that may be the last.

- [chuckling] Oh, sorry, didn't mean to scare you.

Whoa.

That puts a couple extra 'e's in 'creepy.'

[laughs nervously]

- Yeah.

They're all like that.

- What do you think they mean?

- That your great-uncle was a lot worse off

than he let on.

- Have you talked to Grandpa O. recently?

- No, not since we talked to him a couple weeks ago

when he asked me to find that for him.

Ruby: I still don't know what it means.

It has way too many vowels.

- I've Googled it about a dozen times,

but it keeps coming back 'green drum.'

What does that mean?

- Really?

[sarcastically] If only there was a big building

with a bunch of books that you could look at for free?

- If only there was a daughter around here

that didn't give her dad such a hard time.

- Fine.

I'll go to the library.

- Awesome.

If you need any help, just let me know.

You know I like a good puzzle.

But, that's only the tip of the weird-berg.

- You weren't kidding about the wishes getting harder;

How do we solve a wish with no wish?

Ruby: We start with the clues.

- What about the logo?

- Hmm.

The temple?

'Beautiful temples with mini temples.'

What about the hand movements?

Maybe they could be part of some traditional Thai dance?

- Come on, put your body into it!

That looks more like sign language than dancing.

All: Sign language!

[climactic high note]

- No wonder you didn't hear a wish.

Sam: Yeah, so the wisher used ASL,

American Sign Language,

instead of saying it, which means...

- Our wisher must be deaf or know someone who is!

- So all we need to do is figure out what it says.

- They must have some guidebooks on ASL

somewhere here.

Sam: You know what, I've got a better idea.

Sebastian.

- [cynically] Sebastian knows sign language?

Sam: Yeah!

His little cousin was born deaf

and obviously needs people to talk to,

so Seb stepped up.

- Aww.

So, are we thinking Sebastian's our wisher?

50 percent shoveling, all complaining.

Question.

Have you seen the way the Byrnes argue?

Ava: No, they've just been through a lot.

Adopting a deaf nine year old, hard times with their business.

From what I've seen,

it's just the scuffs and skirmishes of time.

Mina: You don't think they're gonna split up, do you?

Maybe.

What was their first date?

Sebastian: [scoffs] This is what she does.

Just go with it.

- It was a picnic.

They met on a field,

on a beautiful, early spring day,

and they talked for hours.

They both have this thing for old folklore,

but that was 25 years ago.

- Okay, picnic, spring day, we can do this!

Uh, where was the field?

- Ireland?

Ruby: Uh, yeah.

Some place called the Hill of Tara, to be exact.

Legendary mythic place of Irish folklore.

Mina: Check out those faeries.

They look more like--

[otherworldly snarl]

- Monsters.

That wasn't a monster

that I saw coming out of the well,

it was a faerie!

This is what the well was trying to get at!

So, now, all that we have to do is set them up on a date

so they can...

[uncertainly] talk about faeries in Ireland?

- Oh, that's it?

Easy peasy.

- Yeah, not so much.

But, if the well thinks that we can do it, so do I!

Yeah.

Sorry, I thought you were gonna be an apple bread.

- Well, I was just in the neighborhood,

and I thought I'd check in, see how you're doin'.

How are you doin', Dan?

- Honestly, great.

If, if I'm a little scattered,

it's because Emerald surprised me again, I...

I'm still getting used to what it's like

to be surrounded by such good people.

Pritch: Glad to hear it.

Glad and relieved.

Look, your dad called me yesterday from Ireland.

Told me to come and check on you two.

- Did he?

Pritch: Your dad and I have a lotta history.

When he calls, I pick up.

- Well, Dad's worried.

I get it.

Pritch: Oh, he's more than worried, Dan.

Liam didn't just tell me to check on you, he,

he told me to warn you,

to tell you that Emerald is no place for you and Ruby.

- I see.

Pritch: So, that's what I'm doin'.

Just as he asked.

But, between you and me, I'd hate to see it.

We all would.

In fact, brought you some apple bread!
