All we need on the Nanny Project

is to get their signatures on pages two, seven, fifteen

have Melissa make copies when you're finished

and leave a copy on my desk.

That leaves us with the Pacifico Nachitas campaign,

which is the most important.

It is indeed.

Ernesto Chavez is our most important client.

I know.

I've emailed explicit instructions to both of you

and your assistants on how to finish up the presentation.

I'll proof it when I'm back

and we can officially present next week.

Rose, he's expecting this presentation this Friday.

Well, I'm sure Mr. Chavez will understand.

I'll be back on Wednesday after the funeral.

Rose, I really think you should postpone this trip.

I wish I could, Lance, but this is my mother.

She was the only family I had left besides my daughter.

Well, I told him we could break for a day.

Can't you compose yourself and deliver as promised?

Compose myself?

I know it's a big ask, but we need to finish

this campaign by this Friday if we're gonna meet

media deadlines by the Christmas season.

And you know what would happen

if you didn't meet a deadline.

Lance, I've been here six years.

I've never missed a deadline.

You two are both partners of Howser and Budewitz.

You don't need me to complete this campaign.

I can't see why you wouldn't help me out on this.

Rose, we wouldn't ask if there was any other way.

Look, you're a big girl, you'll be fine.

A big girl.

It's just two more days.

My mother's wake is in Lake Placid tonight.

And if you left right now,

you definitely would not meet your deadline.

I would if you would help me.

If I don't leave now,

there's no way I'll make it upstate in time.

I should have left yesterday,

but I wanted to make sure

you had everything prepared for you to finish

Rose, the truth is, we, we can't do it without you.

And we understand it's a difficult time for you,

but you leaving really does hurt this company.

I've given this company everything.

A little bit of compassion would be nice.

Okay, normally, we would not ask you

to do something like this, okay,

but this is a very unusual circumstance

and, yes, the timing stinks,

but not only is he our biggest client,

that account is our most profitable account,

so compassion is not gonna get our work done.

We need you to stay until this presentation is finished.

I don't think you get how hard this is.

Maybe you can work on it tonight

and have it done by tomorrow.

You misunderstand, Charles,

I won't work for a company

that puts deadlines before a family.

So are you gonna tell me what's going on?

Try outs are right after break and I wanted to practice.

Grandma passed away.

Oh,

I'm sorry.

When?

The day before yesterday.

Mom, why don't you tell me?

You knew she was sick, honey.

But she was just here for Thanksgiving.

I thought she was doing better.

So did I.

You know, Grandma,

she wouldn't have wanted us to worry.

You should have told me that she died when you found out.

I didn't wanna upset you

while you're finishing up your exams.

This is a little more important than some stupid test.

Grandma wouldn't want you to fail on her account.

Besides, there's nothing you could have done from home.

So does this mean we're finally going up to Lake Placid?

Yes.

When?

Now.

I need to pack.

I already did.

I stopped by home before coming to get you.

Oh.

Is there anything else I can do?

Well, do you mind spending Christmas break in Lake Placid?

No, Mom, that's awesome.

I mean,

I'm really sorry about Grandma

and I'm really gonna miss her,

but I wanted to visit her in Lake Placid forever.

I know.

I should have brought you there sooner.

It's okay.

I'm sure she's looking down from heaven and smiling on us.

Let's go.

Really, Mom?

Pastor Shavens said he'd leave it onto the mat for us.

Rose.

It's so great to see you.

Pastor Shavens.

And don't tell me this is Little Lily.

Well, honey, I haven't seen you

since you were knee high to a grasshopper.

Come here.

Well, don't just stand up there in the cold,

come on into your new home.

What do you mean your new home?

Well, Dahlia left Sunburst Cottage

and all of its contents to you, Rose.

You inherited everything.

- Everything? - Yep, the entire estate.

I know you're close, but how do you know this and I don't?

I was her estate attorney.

I thought you were her pastor.

I am.

I'm also a lawyer.

I wear a lot of different hats in this town.

Can I sell the house?

Well, that's up to you, Rose.

I'd take some time to get to know Lake Placid.

It's been a long time since you've really been home, Rose.

A lot of things have changed.

Are Summer and Everett still here?

Well, of course, as a matter of fact,

Summer works in my real estate office.

You're a real estate agent too?

A broker actually.

Oh, so I can come to you to sell the house.

Mom, you can't sell the house.

I'm just looking as an option, Lily.

Our lives are in New York City.

Do you know how much of a change would be to move here?

Well, give it some time.

Lake Placid might grow on you.

Did you do all this Christmas decorating for us?

No, that was your grandma.

She just loved Christmas.

Decorated her whole house the day after Halloween.

I remember.

Well, I'll let you ladies settle in.

I'll see you in a couple of hours at the wake.

Yeah.

Well, thank you for helping me put it together.

Just surprised we couldn't find a funeral home.

A funeral home for Dahlia?

No way.

She would've hated that.

She wanted people to celebrate her life,

not mourn her death.

The Wooden Spoon is perfect.

It was her favorite haunt.

Maybe she'll haunt it for real now.

Lily.

Well, I see you have your grandmother's sense of humor.

Whatever you do, don't wear black.

She would've hated that.

Yeah, you're right.

This place is so cool.

Well, see you later, ladies.

Oh I, I nearly forgot.

I found this in a stack of Christmas cards Dahlia addressed

and I figured I'd give it to you in person.

Thank you.

See you in a bit.

My darling daughter, Rose,

wishing you the Merriest Christmas yet.

I wish we could spend more time together.

I'm so very proud of you.

Love always, Mom.

I'm really gonna miss her.

So will I.

She was an awesome grandma.

Should have spent more time with her.

Rose?

Rose?

I can't believe you're here.

Well, obviously you'd be here,

but I can't believe you're actually here.

I'm so happy to see you.

Oh my gosh, after all this time,

you haven't even changed a bit.

So good to see you too.

Do you remember Lily?

No, that is not Lily.

What are you, 12 now?

15.

No, you're not.

Stop it.

Come ive Auntie Sum a hug.

Auntie Sum?

Auntie Summer.

Summer Pearson.

I know your mom told you about me.

I haven't seen you since you were like three.

Don't tell me you didn't tell your daughter about me.

Of course I have.

Lily, Summer was my best friend when I was growing up.

I told you about her, remember?

Hey, I'm still your best friend.

Just, you know, that never changed.

I mean, maybe you haven't visited in a little bit,

but you're still my best friend.

Thank you.

Why didn't you come back,

like I really missed you.

I know, I just, I know I just didn't feel comfortable.

Is it 'cause of Danny?

Do we have to talk about this right now?

It's my mother's wake.

No, I guess not.

I mean, your mom never really liked Danny anyway.

- Really? - Summer.

Really.

Can we please talk about this another time?

Yeah, I mean, you know where I live.

No, I don't think I do.

Rose, of course you do.

I bought my mom's place

back when she moved to Florida a few years back.

At least I thought I told you.

Oh, sorry.

No, no, no, no.

Summer, I should have got back to you.

Stop, no, no apologies.

We'll just pick right up where we left off.

So, all right, let me take you two around

because there's a lot of people

that wanna offer their condolences.

Hey folks, you might wanna head inside.

We're about to say a few words about Dahlia.

Well, I'm sorry.

They're closed for a private event tonight.

I know.

Can I help you with something?

You can get out of my way.

Well, you see, there's a guest list for tonight

and everyone who's on it is already here.

I'm her long lost son-in-Law.

Ah, former son-in-Law.

Daniel Cooper.

See, I am on the guest list.

No, you're not.

Dahlia specifically said,

and I quote "If that bum Danny Cooper tries to get in here,

"you send him packin'."

That Dahlia, she had such a good sense of humor.

I will call the authorities if I have to, Mr. Cooper.

You're not welcome here.

And exactly who are you?

Tim Shavens, attorney at law.

I'm the executor of Dahlia's will.

Ah, well, I suppose I was going to come see you.

How much did she leave, Lily?

Nothing.

I don't believe that.

Well, Dahlia left everything to Rose so that you wouldn't,

as she so eloquently put it,

get your hooks into what is rightfully Rose and Lily's.

So you admit Lily's entitled to something.

Not from Dahlia she's not.

But I'm sure her mother will share

what she inherited with her

Sunburst Cottage is worth a fortune

and you better believe I'm gonna get my piece

after everything I did for that family.

From what I understand,

the only good thing you did

for the McCreedie Family was leave.

But you're welcome to try.

You have a nice night now.

Can I have your attention please?

Can I have your attention please?

Good evening, everyone.

We come together tonight to celebrate the life

of Dahlia McCreedie, not to mourn her death.

As you look around the room, you see all of the people

that Dahlia touched and meant something to.

It was her wish that everyone that came tonight celebrate,

smile, and enjoy themselves.

Now, Dahlia always used to tell me that she kept tissues

in that sack of a purse of hers

because she couldn't stand seeing people cry,

mainly because it led to drippy noses.

Yeah, the last thing Dahlia would've wanted

was for any of us to shed a tear over her death.

Sure, we're all gonna miss having Dahlia in our lives,

but our memories of her will live on in our hearts

and minds forever,

so let's keep Dahlia alive

by sharing stories about her tonight and always.

To Dahlia.

To Dahlia.

As all of you know,

Dahlia had a daughter named Rose.

Little miss Rose was prom queen when she graduated

and voted most likely to succeed.

You were?

Shh.

It comes as no surprise

that Rose worked her way up in a fancy marketing firm

in New York City while raising in an incredible daughter.

Aww.

Dahlia was so proud of you.

I'm sure she's smiling down on us tonight,

seeing how you've finally came back to Lake Placid.

Why don't you come up here and say a few words.

Go ahead, Mom.

Wow, okay.

Hi, I wasn't expecting to have to say anything tonight.

It's so nice to see how much Mom was loved

by everyone in this town.

When my dad passed, who I'm sure welcome my mom

right at the pearly gates,

it was just me and my mom.

I was prom queen.

'cause it was my mom who made the posters for me.

My mom was the one who encouraged me to get that degree

and go after that marketing job.

Yeah, the big marketing job in Manhattan.

That doesn't matter anymore because Mom is gone.

I lost her, I lost my job, my husband walked out on me.

To Dahlia.

To Dahlia.

Ros.

I'm so sorry, Sum.

I didn't mean to say all that.

It's no one's business.

You could have told me, you know?

I know.

I'm so sorry that I wasn't there for you.

Rose, you are my best friend.

You always have been, you always will be.

I've haven't been a very good friend.

You're here, aren't you?

Pull yourself together, okay,

get in there like nothing even happened.

I'm so embarrassed.

Don't be.

You lost your mom.

You're emotional.

We all are.

I don't know how you do it, Sum.

Do what?

Be yourself like that.

Well, if I wasn't myself, then who would I be?

Come on, silly, it's freezing out here.

Yeah, yeah, okay.

Come on.

I hope your mom's okay.

I'm sure she's fine.

My mom's the strongest person I know.

She's just had a lot hit her today.

Yeah and I didn't help any.

I feel terrible.

Don't.

It's okay, Pastor Shavins.

Rose, please call me Tim.

I genuinely didn't know.

I just assumed that-

Well, you know what, assuming does, Tim.

That I do.

You ladies have a nice night.

Mom, are you okay?

I will be.

I've never seen you lose it like that before.

Ooo, I have.

You have?

Have not.

Oh, yes, I have.

Remember when Marcy Carlyle took your pompoms

right before homecoming in ninth grade?

Epic meltdown.

Over pompoms?

Really, Mom?

Okay, okay, I was the only freshman in the varsity squad.

It was a lot of pressure.

Okay, well, what about the time

that your computer froze

right before you had to turn in that,

that economics research paper?

No way.

I needed to graduate.

Mr. Hanson wasn't taking any excuses.

Okay, well, well then what about that-

Okay, okay, okay,

so I may have had some emotional moments,

okay, but I've learned to control them as I've matured.

I'll say.

Sometimes I think you're part robot.

Oh, wow, Rose, one extreme to the other, huh?

I think you and I have a lot to talk about, Auntie Sum.

I have waited so long to hear you call me that.

Oh.

I will tell you everything you wanna know about your mom.

Oh, no, you won't.

Too late, let's go.

Hi.

I'm sorry about your mom.

Oh, thank you.

Did you know her?

Not very well.

She would come in every now and again.

She was always very nice to me.

Oh, thank you for the kind words.

Here, this is for you.

It's a Shirley Temple.

Thanks.

This is what my mom would always get me

to make me feel fancy.

Yeah, the bartender said to bring it to you.

Is that Everett Waters.

Sure is.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks.

Everett Waters as I live and breathe.

Hey, Rosie.

It's good to see you again,

although wish the circumstances were better.

What in the world are you doing

slinging drinks in this place?

I wanted to be here for Dahlia.

Thank you.

So how are you?

Like you couldn't tell from my little outburst?

Eh, pretty sure I'd be the same way

if either of my parents died.

I guess.

I'll be fine eventually.

You always were.

Some things never change.

Table four needs another round.

Well, it looks like duty calls,

but it was really good seeing you again

and don't be a stranger, okay?

Okay.

What smells so good?

I made french toast and bacon.

Wow, you haven't made that in a while.

Oh, I found Grandma's recipe book,

so I thought I'd give hers a try.

Do we have any syrup?

Look in the pantry.

Grandma made jam.

Yeah, it's a little hobby of hers.

Did you find some?

Yeah, blueberry, look.

What are you doing today?

Well, Summer asked me to lunch.

That's great.

It looked like she really missed you.

Mm, I know,

but I wanna try and get things in order here

so we can sell the house.

Are you sure you wanna do that?

Well, as much as I'd like to,

I can't exactly have a vacation home, Lily.

It's too much to rent our apartment

and worry about the upkeep of this place.

What's keeping you in New York?

Well, that's where we built a life.

Have we though?

Of course we have.

That's where all your friends are.

Gabby was my best friend

and she moved to Texas last year.

I still talk to her every single day though.

Okay, but you go to school in New York.

You're just a sophomore.

School is school.

I can graduate anywhere.

Lily, making a move like that isn't so easy.

A lot of thought has to go into it.

I don't know, Mom.

It seems like a better place for us.

You don't have a job anymore,

school hasn't been the same since Gabby moved,

neither one of us really have friends in New York.

We have plenty of friends.

Not close friends like Summer

and that guy you're talking to.

That guy is your father's best friend from high school.

Even though we came up here for sad reasons,

you seem a little happier.

I do?

Maybe just lighter.

I don't know.

Maybe this is God's way of telling you

that we need a change

or Grandma's way of telling you.

She always wanted us here.

See.

It's an awfully big change, honey.

I can't make a decision like that so quickly.

You don't have to make it quickly.

We can stay here the whole Christmas break, right?

Lily, nine days is quickly.

People plan for changes like that for months, if not years.

All I'm saying is I'm open to giving it a shot if you are.

When did you get so mature?

Good morning, Rose.

Hi, Pass, Tim.

This is a surprise.

Come on in.

Oh, I can't, but thanks.

This'll just take a minute.

Oh, how can I help you?

Well, our annual Christmas bazaar

is after church on Sunday.

I'm sure Lily and I can stop by.

Oh, that's not why I'm here.

It's not?

Well, no, you see your mom committed to making 200 jars

of jam for the bazaar.

200 jars?

Yeah, I'm sure she started already.

I was wondering if you happened to find them?

Well, I haven't seen 'em anywhere, but I'll look.

Well, I'll take whatever you can find.

They're the biggest hit of the bazaar.

- They are? - Absolutely.

People wait all year long to buy her jar full of Christmas.

That's what she called her jam.

Cute.

Well, if I find it, I'll bring it to the church.

Well, I hope you do.

We make a thousand dollars from her jam alone.

$1,000 from jam?

Yeah and the church could really use it.

Well, you and the church meant so much to Mom.

I'll look for it right away.

- Thank you. - Sure thing.

What are you looking for?

Grandma's jam.

It's still on the counter.

No, it's more than that.

Tim just stopped by to see if we had it.

If we had Grandma's jam?

Hundreds of jars of it, Lily.

Grandma was apparently known for a jam

and sold it the annual Christmas bazaar.

That's so cute.

Oh, it's more than cute, honey.

Raised about a grand for the church.

Well, it's not in the pantry.

I noticed.

If I were a jar of jam, where would I be?

Hello.

This stupid.

Tim?

Will you just?

Is that you?

Oh, come on.

No way that didn't just happen.

Oh, is now a good time?

Oh, hey Rose.

I didn't hear you coming.

Are you sure now's a good time?

Yeah, I was just having a fight with the furnace.

Well, it looks like the furnace is winning.

Yeah, well, it'll be all right though.

I'll figure it out.

Is that the jam?

Yes, a whole carload of it.

200 jars.

Oh, that's wonderful.

I'll help you bring the rest of it in.

Tim, don't you think you need a professional?

To carry jars?

Don't be silly.

No, I mean, for the furnace.

Yeah, I worked in an HVAC company in college.

It's just a little puff back.

Oh, that doesn't sound very good.

It's really nothing.

We had it inspected a few months ago,

and it's an old furnace, but it works.

I'll get it replaced someday,

but I have to get the roof done first.

Yeah, get it done one way or another.

The good Lord will provide.

Well, come on, let's carry the rest of those jars in.

That's the last of it.

Well, thank you for bringing this by so quickly, Rose.

Everyone loves this jam.

And Mom loved this church.

I wonder if I could get a continuous donation going

by maybe starting a side business with her recipes.

Well, God bless you for even thinking

about doing something like that.

No, no, no.

I'm not promising anything, Tim,

it's barely even a seed of an idea.

Well, you know what they say about seeds.

That they grow into plants?

Something like that.

If you have faith the size of a mustard seed,

you can move mountains.

Well, it's gonna take a mountain of blueberries

to make the amount of jam we are gonna need

to get you a new roof and furnace.

Well, the Lord heard you put it out there.

You never know what he might do with it.

I'll see you on Sunday, Rose.

Bye.

Oh, good luck with the furnace.

Rose, hey, over here.

- Hey. - Hi.

I didn't think you were coming.

Sorry, I got caught up looking for Mom's jam

for the Christmas bazaar.

Oh, I see you found it.

Yeah, Summer,

there were literally hundreds of jars of it in the basement.

Oh, well, I'm not surprised.

Your mom's jam's really the best.

I know.

I've never tasted anything like it.

I've just dropped a car full off at the church.

Good.

I didn't think we were gonna have any this year.

I mean, people come to the bazaar super early

just so they can buy it.

Really?

Yeah, there's even a limit to how many you can buy.

Only three per a person.

You're kidding.

No, I mean, people can't seem to get enough of it.

I had no idea.

Had no idea about what?

My mom's jam.

Mmm, Christmas in a job.

See?

Is that some of it?

Yes, I was hoping to get a meeting with the owner

to try and get on the menu or something to test the market.

Mmm, blueberry's my jam.

That's my favorite.

Well, you can have it if you get me a meeting.

Oh, Rose, Everett.

Yeah, tell you what, lemme see what I can do.

You think you could fill an order for say 50 jars?

- 50? - Is that not enough?

I don't know if I have that many.

Oh, do you have your mom's recipes?

Yes.

I found her recipe book this morning.

I'll help you make it.

And I'll get the order before you leave.

We'll see.

You and Lily can make it together.

That'll be so fun.

I'll be back in a bit.

Are you ladies ready to order?

Yeah.

It was great catching up with you, Sum.

I'll admit it, I've missed you.

I knew it.

It's been so great having you back home.

I don't know how long we'll be here.

What?

Well, that's too bad.

I hoped you'd come back for good.

I don't know.

Lily and I have already built up a life in New York City.

Well, you can always get your life back on track here.

I didn't mean it like that, Rosie.

I just meant it'd be really great having you here.

I feel like we've already just picked right up

where we left off.

Here,

I bet Mom would've loved you to have this.

But I thought you were gonna try

to get it in the restaurants in town?

I have more at home and hey,

we're gonna try to make it, right?

You bet.

- Tonight? - Sure.

I'll bring pizza.

Can I help you with something?

Oh, Everett said he was gonna try and do something for me,

but I guess he forgot.

Well, I can go get 'em for you real quick.

Oh no, it's okay.

Just tell him the Rose said not to worry about it.

Oh, you're Rose.

Yeah, why?

I'll go get 'em for you real quick.

No, no, it's okay, really.

Tell him I gave Summer the jam.

Will do.

Hey, Rose, wait up.

I thought you forgot about me.

Never.

No, I was making some calls, I lost track of time.

Oh, here you go.

Your first order.

Everett, this is for 300 jars of blueberry jam.

Well, that is the best kind.

Besides, I couldn't remember what the other flavors were so.

This is six times what I have.

Can't you just make more?

I guess I can, but this is 300 jars of blueberry jam.

I don't know if I can deliver this by Monday.

Okay, well how long does it take to make a jar?

I don't know.

I've never made it before.

I just dropped off 200 jars of jam for the church bazaar.

I told Tim I'd be back with more.

Okay, well just add more to the batch.

Everett, the ones I'm giving were already made by my mom.

I don't know how I'm gonna do this.

Okay, don't get upset until you give it a shot.

All right?

Okay.

There are three, three hotels and three restaurants

all looking for 50 jars of jam.

Yeah, well, like I said, I made some calls.

Guess I should have asked you first.

Ya think.

Sorry, got ahead of myself.

You could say that again.

I tend to do that.

All right, look, you have the recipes, right,

and you have the other jams to compare them to

and everyone loves them, Rose.

I know, but I'm not her

and I don't know if I can make it as well as she did.

Well, you'll never know if you don't try.

Look, if it's too much, I can just call everyone

and tell 'em I jumped the gun.

Sorry, I was just trying to help out.

I appreciate it.

I do, it's just a little overwhelming.

A lot overwhelming.

I think you've dealt with way more overwhelming problems

than some jam, Rosie.

Yeah, you're right about that.

I better go.

Go where?

Home.

I have to figure out how to make some jam.

300 jars of jam?

Yes.

Where are you gonna get all that?

We're gonna make it.

We as in me and you?

And Summer.

Mom, this is insane.

I know.

Do you even know how to make jam?

No, but I have Grandma's recipe book.

Oh, come on, Lily, could be fun.

I don't know what could possibly be fun

about making enough jam to feed an army.

Oh, not an army, honey, just a small village.

Be serious.

I am being serious.

We'll be able to leave Grandma's mark on this village.

The profit's gonna help the church.

That would've meant so much to her, Lily.

I guess.

Summer will be over at 7:00 PM,

so why don't we try it now, just us.

It's really just three ingredients?

Yeah, four cups of blueberries,

a third of a cup of maple syrup, and a juice of one lemon.

It only makes 12 ounces?

That's what it says.

So that's three small jars.

Mom, we're gonna have to do this a hundred times.

Only takes five minutes to prep.

But it takes half an hour to cook.

Do you even have time to do all this?

I have nothing but time now, Lil,

besides, remember when you signed me up

to make six dozen cupcakes for the hockey team bake sale?

This is just like that.

Mom, you used a box mix and that was six dozen, not 300.

But I was working a full-time job plus tons of overtime

and I was still able to get it done, right?

I guess.

Okay, so let's just see if we can do it first.

Alright.

Come, come.

- Right. - What do we do first?

So.

It looks like the right consistency

Smells good too.

Hmm, but now for the real test.

Hmm.

That's pretty good.

It's not right.

It does taste different.

There's a spice missing or something.

Are you sure you followed the recipe correctly?

Yeah, it's just those three ingredients.

Although Mom would usually keep a secret ingredient

so no one could duplicate her recipes.

Sneaky.

Yeah, tell me about it.

I once caught her pressing garlic into a marinara

after she shimmered the sauce to give it extra flavor.

There's definitely a flavor missing.

It tastes like Christmas.

Well, how does a holiday have a flavor?

You try.

Yeah, you're right.

What are you doing?

Well, there must be something in here.

Let's make a bunch of different batches

and put a spice in each different jar.

We'll keep this one plain.

Hmm, trial and error.

Okay, we can do this.

Yeah, so let's start with the cinnamon.

Oh.

Okay.

Hmm.

Grandma does make snicker doodles for Christmas

and she puts cinnamon in those.

Yeah, you're right.

Okay, here it goes.

Tastes better than the plain.

It kind of tastes like blueberry pie.

Yeah, you're right, but this is not the jam.

No, it's not.

Okay, it's closer.

Next.

I can't.

I know.

My lips are numb.

Mine too.

Can a person die from eating too many blueberries?

I think my tongue is gonna be permanently purple.

I think I might turn into a blueberry,

like an actual blueberry.

Well, we could always change your name to Violet.

Oh, don't make me laugh, it hurts.

I'm so full.

Four more spices, honey.

We can do this.

What's next?

Ground cloves.

Can we finish this tomorrow?

Four more spices, Lily.

We can do it.

Who's that?

Summer said she was coming by with pizza.

Ugh, no.

Well, hey, at least someone else can taste for us.

Oh.

Hey.

Hey yourself.

You look like you've been through a battle.

I have, a blueberry battle.

Oh, I brought pizza and a couple extra hands to help.

Yeah, she kidnapped me at the pizza place.

You wanted to come.

I wanted to eat dinner.

You haven't eaten yet, have you?

Sort of.

Come on in.

Ugh.

Whoa, you guys have been busy.

Yeah, we lost track of time.

All right.

So how many jars have you made?

This batch makes 24.

Once we perfect the recipe,

we'll definitely move a lot faster.

Whoa, this tastes exactly like your Mom's.

- It does? - It does?

Yeah, Everett, try it.

Mm, definitely.

You hit this spot on, Rosie.

You're kidding.

Cloves.

After what we've just been through,

you better not tell a soul ever.

You hungry, Lily?

I brought pizza.

Uh uh.

She doesn't like pizza.

Mm.

Neither the one of us can even think about food right now.

We must have eaten the equivalent

of a sleeve of crackers and a jar of jam each

trying to figure this out.

Mm.

What do you say you take a break?

That's a good idea.

I think we need it.

We've been at it for hours.

Right, go change into something warm

because I have something that we can do.

Oh, I don't know if Lily's gonna fill up to going out.

I mean, I practically had to beg her to make jam with me.

No, no, no, don't worry about it.

You guys go out.

I mean, I'm way overdue

for some time with my long lost niece anyways.

I don't know.

I mean, hey, you could always stay here

and eat some more jam.

Lemme get changed.

Mm, give me some more.

Oh yeah.

- Whoa. - You okay?

Yeah, I just haven't skated in a really, really long time.

Oh, if Lily could see me on the ice now.

What about Rockefeller Center?

Figured you'd skate there at least once a year.

You imagine me skating at Rockefeller Center?

I'd be lying if I said I didn't.

No, ever since we left home and you moved to New York City,

I don't know, I always thought of you

when I saw pictures of that,

of that big Christmas tree outside of the rink.

Oh.

Besides, we used to skate all the time, remember?

How could I forget?

You were the reason I broke both of my wrists

and had to sit out of cheering for half a season.

What?

That's not fair.

You weren't ready.

You said you were ready.

You dropped me.

Because you said you were ready and you weren't.

Yeah, well, if Danny had been on the ice instead of you.

Then you would've never even attempted to do the lift

because Danny was a terrible skater.

Exactly.

- Woo. - Whoa.

You good?

Yeah.

Sorry for what Danny did to you and Lily, Rose.

Your mom told me what happened.

She did?

I asked her not to tell anyone.

I'm the only one she told

and I never said anything to anyone, not even Summer.

Well, thanks for that.

I hope you don't blame yourself,

you know, because Danny was never good enough for you.

I really don't wanna talk about it right now.

I know that, Rose, it's just,

I really need to get this out.

You know, I always thought that Danny

took you for granted in high school,

you know, and even though he was my best friend,

I always thought you deserved someone better.

You never said anything.

Bro code plus I was a teenager.

How was I supposed to know what I was supposed to say?

Look, after he left, I wanted to reach out

and I promised your mom that I wouldn't.

Well, I didn't wanna have anything to do

with anyone from Lake Placid.

Even after Danny's family moved away?

Yeah, they moved, but our history didn't.

Everyone expected me and Danny to get married

and live happily ever after.

When he left, I was so ashamed.

I don't wanna come back here

and have to explain over and over again.

Small town.

You know how gossip travels.

Yeah, certainly do.

I'm really glad you came back here.

So am I.

You okay?

Maybe we should try something that needs less skill?

Good idea.

I know the perfect place.

Let's go.

This is a nice change of pace.

Yeah, I thought you'd like it.

It's called Wild Lights.

Yeah, the Wild Center's done it every year since,

well, since Nick Casetti took over.

I remember Nick.

He did all the sets for the school shows.

Mhmm.

Yeah, he's a super talented guy.

Can't believe he stayed in town.

You know, a lot of people really like it here.

Thank you, Everett.

I haven't had a night like this

in a really, really long time.

Yeah, I'm just glad you decided to spend some time.

Well, you made a pretty compelling case.

I can't believe you got Mom's jam

into six different places.

Well, get into some more if you like.

You know all the bartenders or something?

What do you mean?

Well, you bar tend at the Wooden Spoon,

you work at Lake Placid Diner.

I can't imagine you have more than two jobs.

- Two jobs? - Bartender and server, right?

Oh yeah, right.

No, I just made a few calls, that's all.

Well, I appreciate it more than you know.

Have to grab a bite to eat

because I'm literally starving right now.

Yes, sure.

I can have tea or something.

Great.

Does your mom have a boyfriend?

Boyfriend, my mom?

No, definitely not.

Does she even date?

No.

I can honestly say I've never seen her leave the house

for a date.

Oh, come on.

I'm serious.

I've never even had a babysitter before.

- Really? - Yeah.

I went to aftercare when I was little,

but once I hit 12, I came right home

until she got home from work.

Sometimes my best friend Gabby would come with me

or I'd go to her house,

but she moved to Texas last year.

Aw, I'm sorry, Lily.

It's so hard when your best friend moves.

Tell me about it.

She was the reason I was included with everything

and now that she's gone, no one seems to care that I exist.

Aw, Lily, I'm sorry.

It was kind of the same with your mom.

Really?

Your mom was the most popular girl in high school.

I was kind of along for the ride.

She was the beauty queen, I was the weirdo,

go figure, but we were best friends

and then her and Danny got married

and she moved off to California.

Right, I do know that.

I tried to keep in touch,

but she was supporting Danny

when he tried to get into professional baseball.

But he never did.

Right.

They did visit with you a couple times after you were born,

but he was just so stuck on playing baseball,

even though he never played in college

or anything like that,

but your mom was trying to be the best wife she could be

and support him on his dreams.

While hers were getting crushed.

Oh, I wouldn't say that, Lily.

She always dreamed of being a mom.

She's got a pretty cool daughter.

Thanks.

I just wish I knew what happened to make her run away.

I love it here.

Well, the Christmas when you were three,

they came to visit and brought you

and when they left, I never saw her again.

I bet that's when whatever happened

to upset her must have happened.

Did you talk to her?

Oh, I tried.

I sent her messages, I emailed,

I called until the number changed.

That's so sad.

I guess,

but I'm sure she had her reasons.

Look, my friendship with your mom

was the best part about growing up around here

and I'm not gonna hold a grudge against her

for having to deal with something

that she felt she had to deal with on her own.

I guess I just kind of figured

we'd always be friends again at some point.

And here we are.

Are you sure you don't wanna order anything?

Food here is really good.

You're lucky I'm watching you eat.

I'm just glad you figured out the recipe.

I mean, I seriously have never tasted

anything like your mom's jam.

I mean, whatever spices she used

made it taste like a jar full of Christmas.

That's cute.

I wonder if I can patent the recipe.

Yeah, maybe.

You definitely have something special here, Rose.

Should try to get it in the stores

Need to figure out a more efficient way to make it.

So what about marketing it?

Ah, see, that's totally my wheelhouse.

I know exactly how to package it,

who to bring it to, how much to charge.

I majored in marketing and spent the last six years

at one of the top marketing firms in Manhattan.

I imagine you'll be going back soon, huh?

To New York City?

Maybe.

I'm not sure yet.

I'm definitely not going back to the firm.

Really?

Why not?

Let's just say they were unhappy with the timing

of my mom's death.

What?

They can't fire you for bereavement.

That's illegal.

I know and I'm pretty sure they knew that too.

Okay, so what happened?

Coming here, then I missed a major deadline.

Missing a deadline is grounds for immediate termination.

And they couldn't make an exception?

No, so I packed up my desk and left.

Huh.

Well good for you.

Glad you stood your ground.

Yeah.

The old Rose would've just stayed.

I kind of like the new Rose.

Kinda?

Well, I really liked the old Rose too though.

I guess you're gonna have to get to know

the new Rose better.

Yeah, I guess so.

Well, well, well, this is my ex-wife and my best friend.

I think that ex applies to me too, Danny.

Danny.

In the flesh.

What are you doing here?

I heard Dahlia kicked the bucket.

I thought I'd pay my respects.

I tried to get into the wake,

but I wasn't even on the guest list.

Even in death, Dahlia had to be petty.

Don't talk about my mother.

That's enough, Danny.

You're upsetting Rose.

Aw, I always knew you had a thing for my girl.

You're just waiting for me to get out of the way, huh?

That's enough. Danny.

Get out.

I would, but I'm staying here.

Oh, come on, Everett, don't act like you didn't know.

You knew he was in town?

No, of course not.

Guess you should pay more attention to the registry.

Oh, well I'll come by

and see you in little tomorrow, Rosie.

Don't you dare.

Have a nice night you two.

Come on, I'll take you home.

Thank you for tonight.

You're welcome

and sorry about what Danny said.

Tell me the truth.

Did you know he was here?

No, absolutely not, Rose.

Promise.

I believe you, Everett.

Danny was the last person I wanted to see.

Yeah.

He's the reason why I didn't come back to Lake Placid

since the divorce.

Yeah.

I figured.

I missed out on so much

'cause I was hiding from him, from our history

I put my feelings and fears ahead of my mom's desires

to have us back in Lake Placid.

I won't make the same mistake with Lily.

Hey, Rose, everyone makes mistakes.

Not everyone learns from them.

Seems like you have.

I don't know.

Things seem to be moving pretty quickly.

I don't know if I should slow it down,

go with the flow,

or get out of the water altogether.

That's your decision, but just know this,

whatever you decide,

you got me and Summer swimming right alongside of you.

Thanks.

Gonna take a minute for me to open up and trust again.

It's just been me and Lily for so long.

You take all the time you need.

I'll be right here.

I thought I heard voices.

Hey, Summer.

I'm not interrupting anything, am I, 'cause.

- No. - Yes.

No.

No, it's fine.

You are fine, I'm fine, you look really fine.

Goodnight, Everett.

My bad.

Thanks a lot, Summer.

Wait, wait, wait for me.

Hey.

How was your date?

It wasn't a date.

We were just catching up.

Yeah, okay, Mom.

How was just catching up?

It was nice.

We had fun.

Mom, are you okay?

Did something happen?

Your father is in town.

Oh.

You don't have to see him if you don't want to.

I don't.

Okay.

You can think about it if you want.

I don't, Mom.

He left when I was three years old.

He never even sent a birthday card, let alone called.

He said he's coming by tomorrow.

I won't be here.

There's a hockey clinic I heard about.

That's right, Everett mentioned it.

I don't wanna see him, Mom.

You're not gonna make me, right?

No, of course not.

I don't even have his last name anymore.

He gave me up.

When he did that, he gave up any right

he had to see me again.

Lily, I'm just letting you know that he's here.

Tim and Everett know too.

Don't worry, honey.

We'll circle the wagons around you.

I don't know what that means.

It means that we will all protect you.

Don't you worry, Lil.

Okay?

Thank you, have a good day.

Hey, Rose, what's up?

Hey.

Hey, Molly.

I have Everett's jam delivery.

Oh wow, that was fast.

I don't wanna let Everett down

with all the orders he got me.

Oh, I'm sure he'd do anything for you.

I'm sorry?

Hey, you,

I was wondering when you'd step by.

Is this all of them?

Yes, these are the small jars.

Great, I'll walk you out to your car.

Mol, can you hold down the fort?

Yeah.

I'll just grab my coat.

So how about tonight?

For what?

Second date?

What do you say?

I would, but someone committed me

to making 250 jars of jam.

Kind of busy.

Yeah, at this point I'd say

we might need to get you an industrial kitchen,

maybe even a full staff.

Let's pump the brakes a little.

I need to find out if I can actually meet this order first.

Can I help?

No thanks.

I wanna spend some time with Lily.

Okay.

Why do I suddenly get the feeling

you're giving me the cold shoulder?

I'm not.

Okay, maybe just a little.

Everett, I had such a great time last night.

So did I.

But you're Danny's best friend.

Not anymore.

Either way, it's kind of a big deal, Everett.

No, Rose, it isn't.

Alright, look, last night,

that was the first time that I'd seen Danny since, well,

since you guys were here at Christmas 12 years ago.

Still.

No, not still.

All right, look, yes,

Danny and I were best friends in high school, okay,

but that all went out the window when he cheated on you.

Wait a minute, you knew he cheated on me?

No one knew why he left.

I never told anyone, not even my mother.

Yeah.

Yes, I knew.

Okay look, he came to me and he told me that he met someone

and that he was planning on leaving you and Lily.

What?

Everett, how could you have not told me?

I didn't know how to.

Lily was three years old

and you were always with him or your mom when you were here.

Yeah, you could have found a way.

How, Rose, a note, an email?

I didn't know what was going on in your house

and I didn't wanna be the one to destroy everything.

Danny destroyed everything, Everett.

A little bit of warning would've been nice.

From me?

Rose, come on, think about it.

What if Summer found out that you were cheating on Danny

and she told him.

I never would've cheated on Danny.

I know that, Rose,

but please just try to see it from my perspective.

Okay, I was 22 years old and I didn't know what to do.

I can't deal with this right now.

Look, Rose, I'm sorry, okay?

I just, I didn't know how to tell you.

So instead you waited another 12 years

to break my heart all over again.

Thanks a lot, Everett.

Rose, hey.

Here's the paperwork for the clinic.

Thanks.

Where's Lily?

On the ice.

She seems so happy.

Yeah, she loves playing ice hockey.

I think she wants to stay here.

Yeah.

Well, I am her mother, so I'll be making that decision.

Whoa, what's wrong with you?

Did you know?

Did I know what?

About Danny.

What about Danny?

He's back in town?

Yeah, Lily told me on the way over.

Don't play dumb with me, Summer.

Did you know he cheated on me?

What?

Oh my gosh, no.

Rose, you should have told me.

You really didn't know?

Of course not.

How would I know?

You stopped talking to me when you moved out to California.

Well, no, I saw you when I visited with Danny and Lily.

We were never alone, Rose.

We never spent any time together.

Danny and Everett hung out,

but you wouldn't leave your mom's house.

We had no time together.

Don't you think that if I knew,

I would've found a way to tell you?

Everett knew.

No way.

Yeah, he just told me that Danny told him before he left.

Rose, I swear Everett never said anything to me.

I had no idea why you and Danny broke up.

Danny told me he met the love of his life

while on walk on tryouts.

She was there, some sort of athletic trainer or something.

I was served with divorce papers and he left.

I never saw him again.

That was the March

after we were all here for Christmas.

Oh, Rose, I am so sorry.

I had no idea.

No wonder you didn't wanna talk to me

or anyone else in this town.

Yeah, well,

I just found out that Danny told Everett before he left.

Oh man.

Poor Everett.

Poor Everett?

How can I even say that?

Rose, it's no secret that Everett's been in love

with you since sixth grade

and then you end up with his best friend

and then you marry him, have a baby with him,

and then Danny comes around

and is like, oh by the way, I'm cheating on Rose.

Exactly what was Everett supposed to do with that?

He was supposed to have told me.

If he told you,

it would've ruined his relationship with not only Danny,

but with you too.

With me, how?

He would've been protecting me by telling me the truth.

You were so blindly in love with Danny

and you have Lily to think about

plus Everett was Danny's best friend.

Do you know how emotional that must have been for him?

What about my emotions?

Ugh, Rose, no offense,

but maybe you should try

to put someone else's feelings first for a change.

Everett was so young back then.

We all were.

I wouldn't have known what I would've done

if I were in his situation at 22 years old.

Would you?

No.

Well, there you go.

Lily.

Yeah, way to go.

Do you want me to talk to him?

No.

Are you going to talk to him?

No.

Rose, don't do this.

Don't do what?

Shut everyone out.

You just got back.

Mom.

This is Lucy Ann, Taylor, and Margo.

They're on the North Road hockey team.

Hey, girls, nice to meet you.

They're going to the diner.

Can I go please?

Sure.

- Here. - Thanks.

Let's go.

Be home by 10.

She'll be fine.

Those girls are really nice.

Very responsible.

Yeah, they seem it.

If you're worried, I can go hang out at the diner

and keep an eye on them.

No's, it's that, just, I've got a lot of jam to make

and I just lost my helper.

I'm a good helper.

You don't mind?

Not at all.

Oh, thanks.

I'll meet you at your house.

Sounds good.

- See ya. - See ya.

Hey, girls.

Hi, Megan.

- Table for five? - Yes please.

Alright, come with me.

Hey, Lily, is your mom here?

No, I think she went home.

Okay, thanks.

Danny.

What are you doing here?

Did you join the police department and not tell me?

You need to leave.

Why, I'm hungry.

Because this is my restaurant, that's why.

You need to get out now.

Oh, is one of those girls my kid?

Hey, that's enough.

Just tell me which one she is.

I won't talk to her.

Just not here.

You need to get out before I throw you out.

Fine.

Have it your way.

Bye girls.

You can talk to me, you know.

I know.

I just don't know what to say.

Ugh, you don't have to choose your words with me, Rose.

You've been my best friend practically my entire life.

How can you say that?

I married Danny and I left you here all alone.

I wasn't alone.

I went up to college and made friends.

I had my family.

Well, maybe I was.

What?

Even though I married Danny, I was so lonely, Summer.

I wanted to be here with you and Everett and Mom.

The minute I married him, I regretted it.

I knew I'd made a mistake.

- No you didn't. - I did.

You took me off to California.

I didn't know anyone.

He didn't let me have any friends.

When I got pregnant, I was so happy

'cause I finally had someone else in my life besides him.

I tried to call you.

I tried to keep in touch.

I know.

Danny just wasn't having it.

He wanted me all to himself.

And then Lily was born.

I was so happy.

It's the happiest I've been in a long time.

Well, see, marrying Danny wasn't a mistake.

You have an amazing daughter because of it.

Well, she is the only good thing

that happened from that marriage.

Exactly

and if you didn't marry Danny, she wouldn't be here.

Right.

People come into our lives for a reason,

regardless of how long they're there for.

Maybe Danny was to bring you Lily.

I never thought about it like that.

And maybe your mom left you all this

so that you could give your daughter

the same experience you had.

I mean, we had a really cool life growing up here, right?

Yeah, we really did.

Maybe you lost your job

so that you'd have nothing holding you back

in Manhattan anymore.

Maybe.

And maybe Everett has been waiting in the wings

just hoping that you'd finally come home

so you could give him the chance that he deserves.

Rose.

Rosie.

What?

Maybe that's just a sign showing you that I'm right.

Rose, Everett's always loved you.

He's never been able to hold down a relationship.

Anytime a girl is ready to settle down with him,

he breaks it off.

I swear it's because he's waiting for you.

Rosie, please.

I just need to talk to you.

Get out there.

What are you doing?

Go.

Rosie.

I'm sorry.

I've been beating myself up for 12 years

because I didn't know how to tell you.

You know, it just, it all happened so fast, you know,

and by the time I got the courage to say something,

Danny had already left

and so I waited, waited for you to come back home

and thought maybe I could help you pick up the pieces,

but you never did

and I should have said something sooner

and told you how I felt.

Maybe you wouldn't have waited so long to come back home

and I am so, so sorry.

I know.

He came by the diner tonight.

Lily's at the diner.

I know it's okay, I know.

She saw him, but I don't think she knew it was him

and he called out to the girls before I threw 'em out.

I tried to stop him, but I don't know.

I just didn't think Danny would do something like that

and I didn't let him go near

and I didn't let him talk to her,

which I hope that's okay with you.

I just, I didn't know what to do.

Thank you.

Thank you for protecting her.

Should be a good day.

Oh and our star booth.

Are you ladies ready for the rush?

Oh, bring it on.

Here.

What is this?

A check for $1,000 made out to the church.

I've been selling jam at local restaurants

and I want you to have the proceeds.

Thank you, Rose.

There'll be plenty more where that came from.

I'm gonna try to build a jam business

from my mom's recipes.

Rose, that's wonderful.

We're gonna start out small until we can get a storefront

or a commercial kitchen or something.

Well, the people of Lake Placid love her jammed,

so I'm sure you'll find lots of luck in New York City.

New York City?

I think it would be way too expensive

to start a business down there.

Plus we can get all the maple syrup we need right here.

I think starting a business in Lake Placid

would be a lot easier than the city.

Especially when you got me helping.

Does this mean you'll be staying in Lake Placid?

It does.

I emailed our landlord 30 days notice this morning.

Well, welcome home, Rose.

Thank you.

All right, McCreedies, back to work.

Rose.

Charles, what are you doing here?

Looking for you.

You and Lance made it crystal clear

you didn't need me any longer.

We were wrong.

We need you to come back to the office.

Mom.

That's not happening.

Please, Rose.

Chavez campaign, it's failing.

Already?

I've barely been gone a week.

No one knows how to work it the way you do.

You mean no one would allow themselves

to be taken advantage of the way I do, the way I did.

Please consider it.

Come back after the holidays.

We'll increase your salary 30%.

- No. - 40%.

Well, I appreciate you coming here.

I'm not interested.

My daughter and I have a home in Lake Placid, friends.

I'm even starting a new business.

But you said yourself, it's only been a week.

Have you really made those changes so quickly?

You know, Charles, I think it's been a long time coming.

At least speak to Lance and Chavez.

I'm not interested.

Then tell him yourself in person.

They're at the Lake Placid Diner

with one of Chavez's partners.

I'll be back in half an hour.

Mom, you're not going to.

No, no, I promise.

Don't worry.

What if she changes her mind?

She won't.

How can you be so sure?

She promised.

This is the best I've ever tasted.

I know and she makes everything in her house.

Well, we're gonna have to do something about that.

Rose.

No, thank you.

We've missed you at the office.

Lance.

Hang on.

Rose, you worked for Howser and Budewitz.

Yes.

That's the firm that fired you?

Fired is a strong word.

Yes.

You told me I was a big girl and that I'd be okay.

Mr. Chavez, I'm sorry you came all this way,

but I'm not coming back.

You're the Rose who runs

my Pacifico Nachitas marketing campaign.

I was.

Aren't you here because the campaign is failing?

Failing, failing is a strong word.

The way I understand it, Ernesto,

is that Rose here wanted to come to her mother's wake.

The firm didn't want her to take off

because of a big marketing campaign,

which I'm assuming was your campaign.

Hold on, you two know each other.

Know each other?

You could say that.

I built my brand off his guacamole.

Pacificos is only a success because of Nachitas guacamole.

You create an Nachitas.

Well, Ernie and I did.

Everett was my little brother in our fraternity

and we were the ones responsible with coming up with snacks,

so we came up with this guac recipe

everybody went crazy for.

Everett had the idea to sell it to local businesses

and I mean it took off from there.

But you're a bartender at the Wooden Spoon?

A bartender?

No, Rose, he owns the Wooden Spoon

and various other restaurants and hotels in the area.

Rose, I was gonna tell you.

So that's how you got those orders from my jam.

This is your jam?

Well, my mom's.

That's why I'm here.

Everett called me and told me

I needed to make a visit and try this jam

and when I mentioned Lake Placid,

well Charles and Lance insisted on coming with

and now I understand why.

I need to get back to the church,

but I came here only to let you know

that I am absolutely not coming back

to Howser and Budewitz.

We'll talk later.

- Rose. - Good day, gentlemen.

So how about that campaign?

Rose, Rosie, wait up.

Really, Everett, you own the Wooden Spoon?

Yes and the diner.

Anything else?

The lodge.

Cranberry Grove Bed and breakfast,

Churchill Hotel, Interlaken Inn.

Everett, how could you have not told me this?

What am I supposed to say, Rose?

Hey, I know I haven't seen you in 12 years,

but by the way, I'm a multimillionaire

and I'm sorry about your mom.

Doesn't matter.

Doesn't change anything.

It changes everything.

No, Rose, it doesn't.

I thought you were a bartender.

Okay and the night of your mom's wake, I was.

I wanted to do something special for her,

so I bartended.

Your mom, she knew me before I made anything outta myself

and she always loved me for me

and she was always there for me,

so, in some small way, I wanted to be there for her

and to tell you the truth, I wanna be there for you too.

Is there anything else you haven't told me?

Yeah, 12 years worth to be exact.

Just like I'm sure there are things

that you haven't told me either.

Why do you ask Chavez to come to Lake Placid?

I didn't know you knew him.

I don't know him.

Okay, I didn't know

that you worked on his marketing campaign.

Correction, I ran his marketing campaign.

Definitely did not know that.

So why ask him to come visit?

Because I wanted surprise you.

I knew that he loved your jam

and I thought maybe he'd want to take it

to a national level the same way

that he did with our guacamole.

Everett, why didn't you ask me?

I'm not prepared to take this national.

I don't even know if we'll go real well locally.

It will, Rose.

I know it will

Still, I'm operating outta my kitchen.

You're getting way ahead of yourself.

It's just I wanted to get a plan from Ernie first

and I wanted to be the one to bring it to you.

You didn't think I would've liked

to have been involved in that?

I didn't even know if you'd say yes.

Well, I'm not saying yes.

Are you saying no?

I don't know yet.

It's good enough for me.

I need to get back to the bazaar.

We'll talk about this later.

Yes, ma'am.

Sorry there's a little limit to three per person.

Thank you for your purchase.

What took you so long?

You wouldn't believe me if I told you.

How many have you sold?

Almost a hundred.

The bazaar's just started.

People know your mom died

and they wanna make sure that they can get the jam

before it sells out.

I told them we're still making it,

but they want Grandma's.

We're gonna be sold out before the hour's over.

If we last that long.

Don't you have anymore?

No, I just gave all the jam to the restaurants.

Can you imagine what it would be like

if we were in grocery stores?

Mom would be a jam tycoon.

Whoa.

Wouldn't that be great?

Your life would be set up very nicely, Lily.

Who are you?

Danny?

It's me, Lily, it's Daddy.

You need to leave right now.

Keep quiet, Summer, this doesn't concern you.

No, she's right, you need to leave.

Is that any way to talk to your dad?

You may be my biological father, but you are not my dad.

Dad is reserved for men who are there for their children.

You were never there for me.

Your mom and I got divorced.

That doesn't matter.

You didn't divorce me.

You changed your name, didn't you?

I changed my last name when I was 13

because my mom has been there my entire life.

She didn't just pick up and leave for whatever reason.

She stayed and took care of me.

She put me first no matter what.

No matter how hard it was,

my mom was always there for me.

You left when I was three years old and now you're back.

Why?

Your mother and I were together when Dahlia made that jam.

It isn't yours.

Nothing here is yours, including me.

I may be 15,

but I will make sure you don't ever get anything

that belongs to me and my mom.

Yeah, you and what army.

This one.

Get out, Mr. Cooper.

We don't want you here and don't you ever come back.

That was awesome.

All right, everybody, nothing to see here.

Back to work.

I am so proud of you.

Really?

You're not mad.

No.

I'm in awe of how strong you are.

Well, I've got a pretty great role model.

I need to take care of something.

You can't fire us.

We have a contract.

Ernesto, listen, let's just think about this for a moment.

I thought about this long enough.

I mean, we've been sitting here

going over the same thing for over an hour.

This just keeps coming down to one thing.

- Money? - Compassion.

Compassion.

I don't see what compassion has to do with this.

Of course you don't.

You fired the woman running my holiday campaign

because you thought that you would miss the deadline,

a deadline you still failed to meet.

If she showed up for work, we would've.

No, no, no, Lance, don't you dare try and put this on her

because if you had called me

and explained to me what was going on,

I could have moved the deadline.

Instead, you tried to put this on her

and she called your bluff.

Okay, okay, so what does that have to do

with our contract?

Well, it doesn't have anything to do with it.

Okay.

But missing a deadline has everything to do with it.

We were short staffed because of her.

You're our biggest client.

Exactly what am I supposed to do?

I don't know.

You're a big boy.

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Let's go.

Rose.

I'm in.

What?

I thought you had the bazaar.

I did.

We sold out in less than an hour.

I'm in.

But we don't even have a plan yet.

I don't care.

People love the jam.

It helps the church and we'll keep mom's legacy going

for I don't know how long.

It's okay, we'll work out the deal points.

That's fine.

I know an attorney in town that would be happy to help.

Now I need you to know something though, Rose.

Now I fired Howser and Budewitz.

Really?

Really, so I don't have anybody

heading up the Pacifico campaign.

Frankly, I didn't think they could do

as good of a job as you.

I don't think anybody could.

I'm not leaving Lake Placid.

Well, I have a partner here

and I'm pretty sure he could find you some office space.

Absolutely.

Okay, I want a flexible enough schedule

so that I can spend time with Lily.

As long as you get your work done,

I don't care what days you work or where you work from.

I want you to match the salary I was getting.

Done plus percentage of jam sales.

A large percentage of jam sales

will go to Sacred Heart Church in Lake Placid.

Now how large are we talking?

Large enough to handle all of their repairs

and keep the church in good working condition?

I'm sure that can be arranged.

Then we have a deal.

We have a deal.

This is gonna be great, Rose.

Now, we'll make the jam and get it in stores,

you spearhead the marketing.

How about we meet tomorrow for breakfast

and we'll talk all this over?

I look forward to it.

Whoa, where you going?

Well, I let her get away once before and you know what,

I'm not gonna let that happen again.

I hear that, go get her.

Rose, hang on.

Hey, what's up?

Why are you going so fast?

The bazaar isn't over.

You're not in Manhattan anymore.

You know you can slow down, breathe a little.

I think I'm gonna have to get used to that.

Yeah.

Think about it, Rose.

You know, people work and work their whole lives

so that they can live in a place they love,

do what they wanna do.

Look at Lily.

She wanted to play hockey

and now she's here in Lake Placid,

home to one of the best hockey moments in history.

I think she's gonna enjoy every minute here.

And think of Summer.

Summer could have left, gone somewhere else,

pursued a major career, but she's truly happy here.

You know, has everything she needs.

Your mom was the same way, you know?

Yeah, she really was.

After I created my business with Ernie,

I came back here

because I found that this is where I'm happiest.

Look at you.

You got your work, family, friends,

and you get to do what you wanna do when you wanna do it.

I think you're gonna be happy here too.

You know what?

I think you're right.

Yeah, I usually am.

Thank you, Everett.

For what?

You made me see what I've been missing.

Nah, Rosie, I think you just opened your eyes.
