Original subtitles

- Previously on The Way Home.

Moving back is just gonna be so good for you... for us.

- Welcome to Landry farm.

- I'm Katherine Landry.

- I did time travel.

And I'm my mom's friend, Alice, but also, me, Alice...

- I can't find him. He's gone.

- Jacob! - Jacob!

- Jacob!

- Hey, Katherine.

- I need to start a new chapter.

Just to see where my own path might lead.

- Did you know explorers use the stars

to lead them home when they got lost?

Wait! Puppy!

- Jacob chased Finn into the pond

on the night that I thought I saved him.

- Come. I know it calls to you.

Remember what I said,

"It will always take you where you need to go."

But you need to stay here for now.

- Mom, I think I know what happened to Jacob.

Did you hear me? I said, "I know what happened to Jacob."

- Stop! I thought we were getting to a better place,

why can't you let this go? - Mom, this is different, okay?

Please, just listen to me.

- No! How could anything you say next help us?

No...

I'm sorry.

Mom!

Mom! Mom, don't, okay? Stop!

- He's out there, Ali, somewhere, he's lost.

- Mom?

Alice?

Alice?

God.

God.

Help me!

Somebody help!

Okay. Baby, please.

Please wake up, please, please.

Please, wake up.

Please. Ali, please.

Please, wake up.

God.

You okay?

Sweetheart, I'm so sorry.

It's okay, it's okay.

I'm so sorry.

Okay...

- So...

You think that Finn... he... - Yeah, time travelled.

I do. Because I heard him barking

the night that I brought Jacob home

back from the carnival. I mean, Jake must have followed Finn

into the pond and then fell in.

- So... he must be out there somewhere.

Mom, we just have to wait a couple of months

for the ice to melt... - No. No.

The pond is done with us. Ali, we have to be done with it.

I nearly lost you.

So we make a pact.

No more pond, no more past.

We live here and now.

- Hey, boy.

Who are you?

- Beautiful day, right?

- Usually is, on the last day of school.

I've always said, "Summertime is magic."

Especially in Port Haven.

Just had that point proven today.

- Hey, Alice! - Hey!

- Well, how about it, Dhawan?

Sooner we start the day, sooner it'll be over.

- Coming!

- I love you, sweetheart.

- Love you too, Grandma.

- Hi, Spencer. - Hey! Yeah!

Guess what? I got into that cooking course.

- In Tuscany? No way!

- Gosh, I have not been in town in high season for ages.

Forgot how fast the masses descend.

- Why do you think I want that liquor licence?

These bougie summer folk want their rosé on tap all season.

- Yeah, well, maybe not just the summer folk.

Right. When does Alice leave?

In a few days.

- Yeah, that's the thing about shared custody,

eventually, you have to share.

- Well, Brady must be thrilled.

Have Alice in Minneapolis the whole summer.

- Yeah, yeah, he is. And so is Rachel.

Okay. I am screening your next guy.

These last two, they've been so very disappointing.

- Okay, Brady only disappointed in the later years, right?

We don't... We don't talk about Eliott.

That secret is still... safe with me. - Thank you.

Ooh!

- The new sign arrived!

Excuse me.

The Herald.

I'm sorry, which law firm?

When did she pass?

It's a sad day.

I mean, Evelyn Goodwin was the oldest member

of this town's most prestigious family.

Not to mention the wealthiest.

- She was a Port Haven institution.

- What do you think is gonna happen to Lingermore?

Hey!

- Hey! Happy last day, kiddo.

- Thank you. Picked up the mail. Mom, this is for you.

- Another one from Eliott. Mexico.

He says, "Best wishes to the family,

and congrats to Alice on the end of school year."

- I still can't believe our Eliott

has made it to all these places.

- I know. It sounds like he's just loving it.

- Spencer was saying that Evelyn

was sort of a recluse, but that Rita's making it seem

like she was this big presence.

No, she was. Her family founded Port Haven.

They opened the sawmill, built ships.

- I mean, growing up, Lingermore was like

a palace on a hill. - Yeah.

The town's lost their founding family.

- No, our great-great-whatevers, they were founders, too.

Elijah and Rebecca Landry came here with the Goodwins.

And they built this farm from scratch.

They even carved their initials in the fireplace.

You sound just like Colton.

He had a Landry family anecdote for every situation.

Between that and the singing, it was a lot.

I didn't see you as the next family historian.

Well, somebody has to pass on the stories, right?

And celebrate them. - Speaking of celebrating,

I'm thinking about throwing a party.

You know, to bring in the summer

and send off Alice properly.

Remember, we used to have them every year.

- God, it was so much fun.

And then, and then, I would, of course,

throw the most epic after party at The Cove.

I mean, that was the real summer kickoff.

- Hey! - Well, no, no, no.

Yours was great, too.

- Okay, we are talking about summer and the ultimate summer

anthem comes on.

I mean, you guys, it's meant to be.

- Okay. - Let's go.

Okay, okay.

- Come on. Nobody remembers this part.

- I don't know the words. Sorry.

This is from when you were a teenager!

- Yes! - You played this all the time.

- Less talking, more dancing.

Hey, you know this part, I know you do.

- Okay, get ready for it, get ready.

- Hi! Dad?

Um, yeah, yeah, I'm almost packed.

I, I'm really excited, too.

So? What did the letter say?

It was from that historical society, right?

- Another dead end.

Wasn't him.

This Benjamin Landry was listed as having green eyes

and blond hair on his death certificate.

- I'm so sorry, Mom.

One day, there's gonna be only one name left,

and it's gonna be Jake.

And then we'll know where he wound up.

So, in the meantime,

I just have to focus on the facts.

Jacob was there when the Almanac existed,

so that he could write his message in it.

That means he must have joined the family.

- Mom, it's been seven months.

We could be doing this the easy way.

- No. No.

Eliott always said that there has to be another way

to solve the mysteries, and I...

I believe him. - Yeah, well...

Eliott's not around anymore

to give us those pearls of wisdom.

- When are you gonna let that go?

- Eliott promised he would always be there to help.

And when we needed him the most,

after we went through, after everything we lost,

he bails.

Hey, here's the man that is stealing my kid away.

- Yeah, right, you're the one who started

this whole tug of war when you whisked our only child

away to another country.

I don't know, I feel like after a few summers,

- we'll be even. - Okay.

Just hold on, because you don't get

to have the fun months every year.

- Listen, the guest room is all set up.

Rachel even helped pick out some new bedding.

- Well, tell her I said thank you.

But don't make it to cushy, because the strength

of your Wi-Fi signal alone has me worried

that Alice won't return.

- Listen, I... I just want to say that I really appreciate

how cool you are about this.

Maybe it'll be good for you and your mom.

It'll give you guys a chance to bond without any distractions.

- Alice is no distraction, Brade.

She's a... She's the glue.

- Hey, I'll let you get that.

Could be breaking news.

You're so funny.

Alright, we'll talk later. Bye.

The Herald.

- She put The Herald in her will?

- Yes. Apparently, Evelyn Goodwin

still had a few tricks up her sleeve.

- And what are these historical artifacts she left the archive?

And more importantly, what are they worth?

- I don't know. I have to go get them.

- You're going up to Lingermore?

- Yeah.

- No wonder you turn the paper into a weekly.

You're always here.

- Well, as a matter of fact,

I am about to take off for a work-related house call.

- Where to?

- I'm going up the hill.

- I'm going with you.

- Miss Landry, we spoke on the phone.

I'm the lawyer overseeing the dissolution

of Miss Goodwin's estate.

- Dissolution?

- Miss Goodwin's son plans to sell

after some basic repairs, of course.

And a sale of the house's belongings.

His family lives out of province

and has no desire to keep the place up.

- The Lingermore estate's been in the Goodwin family since...

Well, since Port Haven existed.

It'd be a shame to lose all that history.

Miss Landry?

If you'd just follow me.

- Yeah.

- Evelyn kept everything related to her family

to eventually turn into a museum.

Celebrating the Goodwin's rule in Port Haven history.

Sadly, time ran out.

Now, it's yours.

I thought we were just talking about a couple boxes.

This is like the end of an Indian Jones movie.

- Enjoy.

- You shouldn't have come here. - Get out.

Long time no see?

I'm just coming to say goodbye

'cause I'm gonna be gone for a while, and I...

I'm gonna miss you.

I do miss you.

Evelyn...

- Katherine? Where are you?

I... here. I'll, I'll come to you.

What?

Kat Landry.

Eliott Augustine.

W-welcome home.

I didn't know that you were, you were back.

You, you run now?

- Yeah. Yeah, it's been good for me.

You know, cathartic.

And you?

You have a whole new thing going, too.

- Thanks. I think...

- No, no. It's great, you look... healthy.

- I was just in the Caribbeans, so... lots of vitamin D.

- So you're good then?

- Yeah, yeah. Yeah, travel was, pfft...

incredible. Met some amazing people,

saw a ton of inspiring sights.

- You? - Great.

Fantastic, actually, because I now run the newspaper.

- That's... that's perfect.

- Yeah. - Congrats.

- And Del has this whole honey expansion thing.

And Alice, she's... she's doing so great.

- Nice.

Can't wait to see them.

- Well, you're gonna have to do it soon

because Alice is spending the summer with Brady.

Actually, Mom's throwing a goodbye party for her tonight.

- I wouldn't want to impose. - No. No, no, no.

No, it would be great. I mean...

it wouldn't be the same without you.

- Then I will be there.

Thanks. - Great.

Yeah, of course. - Yeah.

- I'll... - Can't wait, um... I'm just gonna...

keep on running.

- I'm gonna... - Cool.

So wait, you actually invited him?

- Yeah, well, at the end of the day,

look, he's still family. - Yeah, well, this family's

pretty good at cutting ties with its members, so...

Sorry, forget it.

- I will never understand why

she took Eliott's travel so hard.

- Yeah. Teenagers. They're weird.

- But you, I get.

And I'm really proud of you taking the high road.

- Sorry? - A mother knows her daughter.

Something happened between you and Eliott all those months ago.

And I think it ended before it even began.

But you are in a much better place now.

You're not wallowing in the past,

and Eliott will see that.

- Mom, I'm not looking to rekindle anything.

Even if something had... kindled in the first place.

- What are you saying? - I'm just saying...

leave it alone.

- Cheers to summer. - To summer!

Yes. - Cheers.

I haven't seen you wear the bracelet in forever.

I was beginning to think you lost it.

- Evening, everyone.

Hey, there she is.

- Um, I think I need to start the fire, right?

You're back.

This'll be... fun.

- Eliott, welcome home.

I so enjoyed your letters.

Let me get you a drink, you're gonna need one

with this crowd.

I-I got you this... - Well, someone had a glow up.

Looks like Eliott's having what the kids call,

"A hot boy summer." You know what I'm saying?

- Rita... - What?

So... Not exactly a warm welcome.

- And what exactly are you implying?

If you think I told Alice why you really left,

you're wrong. I would never

colour her opinion of you like that.

You did that on your own.

- So she doesn't know? About us?

- You know, I didn't really think that it was appropriate.

And besides, I mean, there's no us, really.

Right?

Look, Alice needs time.

She felt like you abandoned her.

I mean, you left without even saying goodbye, El.

- Hey, Alice... Okay.

- I'm just gonna take this outside.

- Okay.

Great party, Del, thanks. - Yeah.

You better get out there and get a lobster

before Rita pilfers them all.

- Mom mentioned something about family initials

- on the fireplace. - Yeah.

Elijah and Rebecca Landry.

They started it all.

Honey, what's going on?

- I don't wanna leave.

You said that summer's magic, and if there's any magic,

it's gonna happen here, so if I go, I'm gonna miss it,

- Do you remember when you first arrived,

and I gave you the tour of the farm?

- I said I didn't want to be a farmer.

And I told you

that this farm had been in this family for generations.

And it will always be here waiting for you.

Now, quit worrying about tomorrow when today's not over.

I have a surprise!

These are to honour my dear husband.

And my precious granddaughter who I'm gonna miss

more than words.

Colton always set off fireworks at the end of this.

And as we do so for the first time in a long time,

I hope that you all feel that he's here with us.

He would really love that.

- Do a spin, do a spin. Nice!

- Alright, here we go, guys. The big finale!

Whoa!

Yeah!

How about that firework show this year?

- Awesome, thank you so much again for the invite.

Good to get away sometimes.

- So what's Victor on about now?

- Well, Dad found out that I spent my school years

saving on that new telescope, and...

he wasn't too happy.

- Well, there's always room for it up in the clubhouse.

Now you can use it day or night because...

- There's a light. What...

What d... - Had a guy from town

give me a hand so that it'd be ready for tonight

and the summer.

- I don't know what to say.

Colton, thank you.

- I mean, that's why we built that place, right?

So that you'd always have a space.

- Is it okay for me to use the clubhouse

even when Kat is away at camp?

- Of course.

But Kat's not gone yet.

Don't waste any time, kid.

Because it's never guaranteed.

- Did you hear that?

- Come on, El, The Cove awaits!

- Have fun, you two.

Carpe diem!

- Hey, aren't you supposed to meet Spencer at The Cove?

Yeah, I'm just grabbing my jacket.

- I'm actually gonna take off. See you, Monica.

Kat...

- I saw that look between you and Eliott.

Are you two together?

- No.

But... we were.

After a million years of friendship.

I... We thought maybe we could be more.

That maybe we could be forever.

- Forever, like, you were in love?

- It didn't last.

It couldn't. I mean, not after everything

that we've been through. - Okay, so you're saying

that Eliott dumped you after all the terrible

things that happened. After Colton...

- No. Eliott spent 20 years of his life knowing his future.

So once all the predictions came true, he needed space.

And I could not let go of the past.

He needed to be free of it... of me.

You know, please, don't be mad at him.

Okay, this is, it's my fault.

- No, it's mine. - What?

- All the predictions that Eliott

just couldn't wait to get away from, I made them.

- Alice, you know that is not that simple.

- Okay, you know what? I have to go to this party...

I ruined this for all of us, didn't I?

- Hey! There she is. - Hi.

- Finally. - Thank you.

- To summer, people!

To freedom!

Cheers.

- Cheers.

I saw the light on.

- No, no, no, no. It's fine. It's fine.

- I thought, maybe...

Sorry, I left so abruptly earlier.

- Seems to be your thing these days.

- Right. Well, I might be good at going, but...

re-entry, not so much.

Remember the last summer cookout?

- Yeah, I thought about that tonight.

- We met Alice, what, two weeks later?

- Yeah.

- I think that was the last time

we were all together like we used to be.

Before... everything changed.

And now if feels like everything's changing again.

Things change.

- There's something I wanna ask you.

I spent all this time travelling,

and I kept wondering if you were, well,

if you might by any chance be travelling as well.

- No.

Haven't.

- Like, at all this whole time?

- We needed to heal.

So we've been trying.

- When I came home this morning

and that note was still taped on my door.

Kat, I'm...

I'm... I'm sorry I didn't say goodbye.

I just knew that if... if I saw you, I wouldn't go.

And I didn't need to... - Just stop.

Stop.

We're just listening to music,

That's all I need right now.

I'm so... I'm so sorry.

Ha! I didn't mean for that to happen.

You just missed so much.

- You can tell me about it. I'm here.

- I'm not your problem anymore.

Goodnight.

Welcome home.

- Dude, stop wasting time.

You got her dad's sign off. You're gold.

Just go tell Kat how you feel.

If she turns you down, you have all summer to recover.

Okay, I'll be your wingman.

I am single and so ready to mingle.

- Nick, it could destroy our entire friendship.

- Or... it can make things a million times better.

Eliott, have faith.

- You're right. - I know.

You're right, I'm gonna do it.

- Hey, El, it's past curfew. I gotta run.

- No problem, I'll see you tomorrow, Kat.

I'm gonna tell her later.

After she comes back from camp.

- Are you cold?

No problem.

Here. You're fine, okay? - Thanks.

- Alice. Did you bring your guitar?

- We need a farewell performance.

- Alice! - Yeah, Alice!

- Um, sorry, I... - I have to go.

- I was starting to think you'd gone off

to start your own afterparty.

No, not exactly.

- Wanna join me?

- Yeah.

- I've been thinking about Alice leaving for the summer,

and I've decided we have to be okay.

We do, do we?

- I may have gone a little too far

with the Eliott stuff earlier.

But it's... it's because I want you to let me in.

You know, honey, I can't stop thinking about Lingermore,

that awful haunted place.

Evelyn just shut the world out.

She piled up the past so high around her,

she blocked out the light.

Now...

what does that make you think of?

Or rather, who?

- Mom, you are nothing like Evelyn.

At least you had the decency

to keep the boxes in the basement.

- I'm serious.

Evelyn's world kept getting smaller, and...

God, I just want mine to break wide open.

And I think it starts with us.

Here, at home.

I want to build back our relationship.

I want to get to know you again.

- I want that, too.

And I always have.

And it's been so nice to hear you say Jacob and Dad's names.

Not in a scared or a sad way, but in a way that...

holds them close and loves them.

- Yeah.

It starts with us.

- I just wish there are some many things

that would have gone differently.

- No more regrets, only resets.

We have to accept what happened

because there's no changing it.

I love you, sweetheart.

- I love you, Mom.

Goodnight.

- Don't waste anytime, kid.

Because it's never guaranteed.

- Did you hear that?

- Come on, El, The Cove awaits.

- Have fun, you two. Carpe Diem!

Hey, Pal.

- Hey.

- Hi.

I just wish there was a picture of all of us together, you know?

So that I know that it actually happened.

Because it's all starting to feel like a dream.

- It happened, kiddo, I promise.

- I know we made a pact, and I've been trying

so hard to keep it, but... I miss it. I miss the past.

And I can't stop thinking about it.

- Look, I... I get it.

I do, Alice. But we can't.

- I almost jumped the other day.

- You did what? - But the pond stopped me,

and it gave me this.

- No, I gave you that.

- Yeah, I.. I know, but it's just... I lost it.

Actually, that's not the truth.

I threw in the pond back when we first moved here

and you told me that you and Dad were over.

And then when I tried to get it, I fell in, and...

And then this all began.

This bracelet is the reason that I started time travelling,

and then the pond just gave it back to me

like it's saying, "I'm done."

- But we already knew that, Ali.

You never did go back. - I know. I know.

- But since we're being honest.

No more secrets.

- Mom, that's... that's you.

- I know. I know, I found it.

It was... It was hanging at Lingermore.

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

or how, or if it's even connected to Jacob,

but there is only one way

that I'm in a portrait that was painted 200 years ago.

I go back. - This is incredible.

This is what's going to lead you to Jacob.

I know it.

Okay, but just take me with you.

- Absolutely not.

Okay, you nearly died the last time that you jumped.

No, I'm waiting for you to be safely with your dad.

- Mom, please, okay?

Can we just do one last trip together?

For me. And for Jacob.

Come on!

Wait up!

- Hey, neighbour.

Sorry about that noise last night.

I should've warned you.

Fireworks were a family tradition.

No. Del, it's, It's fine.

It's good to hear some noise over here.

I, I came by

because I wanted you to be the first to know...

that I sold the farm.

- I didn't know it was for sale.

- Neither did I.

But this buyer approached

and the offer was just too good to refuse.

The, um... The kicker is that this buyer

doesn't want to take over my lease for your fields.

City folk, you know?

I can try and find somebody to take... - No, no.

You've been farming our land for almost 20 years.

I'm not just gonna let anyone do it.

I'll take care of it myself.

- If you don't find someone else,

I'd hate to think that you would...

- I'm not gonna sell. These fields have been

in this family for generations. That's not gonna change.

- Fair enough.

And again, I'm... I'm sorry. - It's okay.

- Don't worry, Mom.

It'll take us where we need to go.

- Don't you wanna know who she is?

- I don't.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom, where are you?

Mom!

Mom!

Mom? - Alice?

- Alice!

Alice!

God.

Where are you?!
