ABIGAIL AGNES BUSINESS_PERSON CASSIE CHILD EVE GEORGE GRACE KRISTA LIAM MARLENE MARTHA MELINDA NARRATOR NICK NOAH PAUL PHIL RACHEL SAM STEPHANIE STORE_OWNER TIM WALTER NARRATOR Previously on "Good Witch". CASSIE Who ya talking to? GRACE Noah. He's visiting his mom in New York. I missed you. NOAH I missed you too. PHIL I always hear about places with small town charm but this town actually has it. And I've decided this would be the perfect place to put my company's headquarters. ABIGAIL So that means you'd be living in Middleton. PHIL Yeah. CASSIE I'm gonna love you as if each day was the only one we had. I wrote down when I wanted our wedding day to be. SAM That's less than 3 weeks away. CASSIE We better get to work. CASSIE Good morning. ABIGAIL Hello. What's all this? CASSIE Different things Sam and I need to decide on before the wedding. Stephanie dropped some cakes by for us to try, and I've been listening to the band Sam wants to hire for the reception. ABIGAIL I can't believe you're putting together an entire wedding in less than three weeks. CASSIE Well, when you're ready to get married, the answer is, "Why wait?" ABIGAIL I suppose you're going to ask me to do the flowers. CASSIE Actually, we were going to hire someone else and let you have the day off. ABIGAIL Oh. CASSIE Just kidding. Of course we want you to do them. ABIGAIL Well, because you want people to be impressed, right? CASSIE Right. Good morning, Phil. PHIL Morning. CASSIE Hi. I heard you and Abigail come in last night. ABIGAIL Well, I told him he didn't have to walk me all the way home, but... PHIL You were already home; all I did was walk you to your room. Which is right above mine so it wasn't that far of a walk. CASSIE Well, it was still sweet of him to make sure you got there okay. Do you want some breakfast? PHIL Oh, no, thank you, I have to get to City Hall. ABIGAIL Phil is re-zoning the old mill because he wants to put his company's headquarters here. CASSIE Well, I hope things turn out the way you want them to. PHIL Thank you. May I drop you at the shop on my way? ABIGAIL Absolutely. SAM Hey Phil. PHIL Morning. SAM Oh, Abigail, I'm glad I caught you. I was wondering if-- ABIGAIL Sorry, Sam. That's my ride. SAM I was hoping to talk with her about doing the flowers for the wedding. CASSIE I already did, and she is. SAM Great. How'd you like the band? CASSIE Sign them up. And Stephanie brought by these cakes. This one is my favorite. SAM That is good. So, this wedding is actually coming together? CASSIE Piece of cake. You know, I think we should get our invitations out before the end of the week. SAM Yeah, I'll try to finish my list of people I want to invite. CASSIE Okay. And I'll do mine, too. Then all I need to do is find the right dress to wear. SAM You could wear jeans and a t-shirt and you'd still be the most beautiful bride ever. CASSIE I'm not wearing jeans and a t- shirt. SAM Can I wear jeans and a t-shirt? CASSIE No. SAM Well, I'm glad I asked you then before I showed up on the day. NICK Fordham University? In New York? NOAH Yeah. They're offering me a full ride. LIAM The coach even wants Noah to start practicing before he's officially enrolled. NICK When are you going to move there? NOAH As soon as we graduate. NICK This is really great, Noah. Congratulations. STEPHANIE What's great? And congratulations about what? LIAM Noah got accepted at Fordham. To play baseball there. STEPHANIE Oh, well, that is great! You know, when you're starting for the White Sox some day, I'm going to want tickets along the third base line. LIAM The White Sox? No. My son's going to be a Yankee. STEPHANIE Well, then, he's going to lose to Chicago. LIAM We'll see... STEPHANIE What is your very favorite thing that I make? NOAH I like the butterscotch milkshake. STEPHANIE Then I'll bring you one of those, on the house. LIAM Thanks, Stephanie. NICK Have you told Grace you're gonna be going to school in New York? NOAH Not yet. LIAM Where are the colleges she's thinking about? NICK Nowhere near New York... When are you going to tell her the news? NOAH As soon as I figure out what to say... GRACE Hey mom. CASSIE Hey honey. GRACE Grandpa? What are you doing? GEORGE I was trying to get this drawer open. It's just stuck. CASSIE You should try to open it, Grace. GEORGE I've already given it quite a pull. CASSIE Maybe it needs a special touch... GRACE I can give it a try. GEORGE I must have loosened it for you. GRACE That's probably it. There's something inside. It's an envelope. How long do you think it's been back there? CASSIE It's hard to tell. That desk has been here since I moved in. GEORGE It might have been there since Grey House was built. GRACE "My dearest Father and Mother..." It's signed "Elizabeth." CASSIE Merriwick? GRACE It looks like it. "By the time you read this letter, I will have fled to pursue a lifetime with my one and only love..." CASSIE She must have written this before she ran off to marry Andrew Wymark. Her father didn't approve so they had to elope. GEORGE Says here they planned a wedding at Grey House. CASSIE I didn't know they were going to have the ceremony here. GRACE And she already had her dress made. Look. It describes it right here. CASSIE "I mostly regret that I shall never wear the gown that was crafted so carefully for me. I only hope the Netherton family is as joyed to see their daughter Fiona walk the aisle as I longed for you to see me." GRACE So she gave her wedding dress away? CASSIE To Fiona Netherton... GRACE What do you think happened to it? GEORGE I guess you'd have to ask Fiona Netherton. CASSIE George, that would have been almost a hundred years ago. GRACE But she had to have done something with her dress after she got married. CASSIE That's true. I wonder if anyone ever wore it after that? MARTHA What are you hoping to find in here? CASSIE I want to find out who married Fiona Netherton. So I can track down their descendants. MARTHA That information should be in the census records, and they're in the last filing cabinet there on the right. CASSIE Okay. MARTHA But that's if you know what year she was married, exactly. CASSIE I don't. MARTHA Well, then, that's going to make this a bit of a hunt. So, how goes the wedding planning? CASSIE Oh. Really well so far. MARTHA You know, they do say the days leading up to the wedding can be one of the most stressful times in any relationship. CASSIE It hasn't been for me and Sam. MARTHA Oh. No conflict at all? CASSIE We both seem to want the same things. MARTHA Tom and I could hardly agree on anything our wedding -- including who we wanted to be there. CASSIE Well, we haven't decided exactly who we want there yet, but... I'm pretty sure Sam and I can get on the same page. What's is all this stuff? MARTHA Oh, in there? That mostly newspaper clippings. Anything pertaining to population increases and adjustments. Birth announcements, funeral notices -- CASSIE And wedding photos... MARTHA But if we don't know the exact year I still don't know how you're going to find what you're looking for. CASSIE Well, I know about when the wedding happened... MARTHA "About when"? Cassie, that means we could be searching through who knows how many clippings before we find -- CASSIE I found it. MARTHA What? Oh. Look at that dress. CASSIE It really is beautiful. MARTHA "Fiona Netherton married Jonathon Powell last week in a ceremony at the botanical gardens..." CASSIE So Fiona Netherton became Fiona Powell. MARTHA Well, that's something to go on at least. CASSIE Yeah, it's a start. MARTHA You know, that dress would look gorgeous on you. CASSIE It would be perfect, wouldn't it? If I can only figure out where it is... PHIL Abigail. ABIGAIL Hello. PHIL Hi. Where are you headed? ABIGAIL I was just on my way to Grey House. PHIL Well, that works out because I'm going that way too. ABIGAIL How'd it go at City Hall? PHIL Oh. Not so good. I filled out form after form and then they told that there's a backlog and I won't be hearing about my re-zoning request until my application gets to the top of some huge pile. ABIGAIL And now long is that going to take? PHIL They said it could be months. I was really hoping to get things moving before then. ABIGAIL You know, sometimes in Middleton things move a lot faster than you'd think. PHIL So I'm just supposed to wait around and hope that something magical to happen? ABIGAIL That's one way of putting it. PHIL You know, I don't always know exactly what you're saying, but I sure love watching you say it. ABIGAIL Well, keep watching. Just in case things keep get even more interesting. LIAM Are you inviting any of the old gang from New York? SAM I might. It'd be good to see Gavin and Pat again. LIAM Do they even know you're going to be taking the plunge? SAM I don't know. I'll send them an invite; see if they can make it. CASSIE Did you guys enjoy lunch? LIAM I did, because he paid. CASSIE Oh. Thanks. SAM Hey, did you tell Cassie the news about Noah? LIAM Oh, Noah got accepted into Fordham. CASSIE Oh. That's great! LIAM Yeah, and they want him there to start practicing as soon as he can get there. CASSIE Which is sooner than you thought he'd be leaving. LIAM Yeah. I though I'd have at least until the end of next summer but -- he's gonna be moving as soon as he graduates. CASSIE And he hasn't told Grace yet. SAM How do you know that, for sure? CASSIE She would have told me, right away. This is going to be hard on both of them. LIAM It is. Well, I better get back to work. What's that? CASSIE Oh, that's a new piece by James Covell. LIAM Oh. I like it. SAM Since when are you into sculptures? LIAM Since I saw this and said, "I like it." CASSIE There's an exhibit of his going on at the Daverson Gallery in the old train station. LIAM Really? Maybe I'll check it out. SAM Yeah, I gotta go too. Bye. CASSIE Okay. GRACE Noah. What are you doing here? NOAH There's something we need to talk about. GRACE Okay? CASSIE Agnes? AGNES Cassie, yes, come in... CASSIE Thank you. CASSIE Thank you so much for letting me come over. AGNES Well, I've been in your shop a few times and you were always so helpful to me in there. Walter -- this is Cassie Nightingale. WALTER Yes, Agnes told me you were going to drop by. CASSIE Yes, thank you. AGNES You wanted to know something about my mother's wedding dress? CASSIE I was wondering if you knew what happened to it. AGNES Well, you can see for yourself. CASSIE I can? AGNES That's me, sixty-two years ago. CASSIE Oh... Wow. You looked beautiful. WALTER And you can see how happy I was. CASSIE That dress seems so delicate. AGNES I thought so, too, but they made things to last in those days. I danced up a storm and didn't break a stitch. The initials "E.M." were sewn into the back of the collar. My mother told me that was her friend? CASSIE Elizabeth Merriwick. She was a relative of mine. AGNES There's also a pocket inside where I put the love letter Walter wrote me the night before we wed. WALTER We both did that so we could take them out and read them to each other on our first anniversary. CASSIE What a beautiful thing to do. Do you still have the dress? AGNES Oh, no. Our daughter-in-law bought a dress of her own, so I passed that on to our granddaughter when she got married. I figured something that nice shouldn't be packed away in a box. CASSIE Do you think she still has it? AGNES I don't know. CASSIE Well, I would love to get in touch with her and find out. AGNES I'll write down exactly where you can find her. CASSIE Thanks. WALTER I remember on that day thinking -- I could never love that woman any more than I did right then. But then the next day I loved her even more, and the next day after that. Sixty-two years worth of days, and each one stronger than the day before. CASSIE Thanks. GRACE When would you have to leave? NOAH The day after we graduate. GRACE So, they must really want you, bad. NOAH They do. GRACE So you're going? NOAH Yes. But... You're still going to be in Middleton. GRACE I haven't decided where I'm going to be yet. And they've got this thing called "technology" now. NOAH You mean, you don't have to be in the same room with somebody to have a conversation with them, see a person's face? GRACE It's amazing. We'll make it work. And I really am happy for you. STEPHANIE Have you seen any of his work? PAUL I'm not really an art expert... STEPHANIE Well, you're going to love it. LIAM Stephanie. STEPHANIE Liam. This is Paul. LIAM Hi. PAUL Hi. STEPHANIE I didn't know you were a James Covell fan. LIAM Well, I just recently became one. But I really like his stuff. STEPHANIE I can't wait to see it. LIAM Well, have fun. Nice to meet you. PAUL Yeah. You, too. STEPHANIE Bye. LIAM Bye. ABIGAIL Madam Mayor? MARTHA Oh, Abigail, come in. ABIGAIL Jared said you were working, but -- MARTHA You know what, I could use the break. I've been signing so many documents I feel like my arm is going to fall off. Everything from zoning permits to variance requests to -- You know what, I don't even know what this is. ABIGAIL It looks like it could take a long time to get through every single one of those. MARTHA Well, yes, the wheels of justice turn slowly. Ditto "city government," -- what is it you wanted? ABIGAIL It's nothing important. Have you been stuck in here all day? MARTHA And probably will be for part of the night as well. ABIGAIL You should open the windows. Let some fresh air in here. MARTHA You know, that's a very good idea. I sometimes forget that these things actually open to the outside world. Oh! Oh no. That'll teach me to try to think beyond the confines of this office... ABIGAIL I can put these in order for you. MARTHA I don't even know what order they were in. You know what, whatever. I'll just make a new pile and work my way down. Wait a minute. Who's trying to re-zone the old mill? Well, if somebody wants to do something with that dilapidated old thing, the sooner the better. ABIGAIL Do you want me to take that out to Jared so he can send on out to the right department? MARTHA Would you? Thank you. One less thing I have to think about. ABIGAIL And things will move a lot faster that way. SAM The invitations will be out within a few days, but you should probably hold the date. TIM If you want me at your wedding, I'll be there. SAM And there'll be healthy food there, so you can eat whatever you want. TIM Sounds even better. Have a good day. SAM What? EVE Nothing. SAM No, that's your "Careful what you're getting into" look. EVE You're going to be setting a precedent if you start inviting your patients. SAM Tim is not just a patient. He's my accountant. EVE I'm just saying -- if you invite one patient, people are going to expect you to invite them all. SAM I think I can manage to keep the numbers reasonable. Cassie. CASSIE Hi. EVE We were just talking about the guest list for your wedding. SAM How's yours coming? CASSIE You know, I've added a few names to the list. And I'm getting close to finding Elizabeth Merriwick's dress. SAM Oh, did you talk to the woman who you thought might have it? CASSIE I did. She gave it to her granddaughter who works at a music store and I'm going there this afternoon. SAM And you think you're going to find it there? CASSIE I'm going to keep looking until I do. SAM I didn't know you'd have to go to all this trouble just to find the perfect dress. CASSIE It's gonna be worth it. You'll see. NICK It's going to be weird not having you around anymore. NOAH Yeah, it seems like just yesterday I moved to Middleton and we didn't get along at all. NICK The good old days... GRACE There you are. NOAH Hi. GRACE Okay. So, I printed out some dates over the summer that we might want to think about visiting each other. The blue is you coming here and red is me going to New York. Actually, that's maroon, which is Fordham's school color. NOAH This is great. Thanks. Oh, we have to circle one more weekend. There's an exhibition game in the spring and they want me to come there to play for it. GRACE Then I'm coming there to watch. When is it? NOAH The second Saturday in May. GRACE The second Saturday? Oh... NOAH Is that not going to work? GRACE No, no, it's perfect, I'll be there. PHIL I can't believe the paperwork for the re-zoning got signed so fast. How do you think that happened? ABIGAIL I don't know. Sometimes things just breeze right through. PHIL Do you think city council will approve my bid? ABIGAIL Phil, you're the only person who wants this place. They'll rubber stamp it without even thinking about it. PHIL I hope so. Because I could get used to being here for a long time. RACHEL Feeling good for the duet? I'll see you next week. Can I help you? CASSIE Yes, are you Rachel Monroe? RACHEL I am. CASSIE I am Cassie Nightingale. I was at your grandparents' house yesterday. RACHEL Grandma said you might be stopping by. CASSIE They showed me a picture of your grandma in the dress she wore at her wedding. RACHEL Didn't she look beautiful in that? That's why I wanted to wear it when I got married. CASSIE It was made for a relative of mine. Elizabeth Merriwick. RACHEL Her initials were sewn into the collar. CASSIE That's right. And I was wondering -- do you still have it? RACHEL I don't. I got so many compliments about it on our wedding day and my husband's cousin begged me if she could wear it and back then, we didn't have a lot of money so we decided that dress would be our gift to her. CASSIE That's very nice. RACHEL If you give me your info I can have my husband's cousin get in touch with you. CASSIE Yeah. That'd be great. RACHEL When are you getting married? CASSIE In a couple of weeks. RACHEL I remember our wedding day. We filled the church with everyone who had ever been important in our lives. My husband even invited his first grade teacher. CASSIE Mine was Missus Klippen. RACHEL You never forget, huh? I will pass this along and tell her what you're looking for. CASSIE Thank you. You sound very angelic. CHILD Thanks. ABIGAIL How long will you be gone for? PHIL Just a few days. The zoning got approved so quickly I gotta put a few things in motion and get the Portland offices thinking about the move sooner rather than later. ABIGAIL Well, before you go, I got something for you. I was dropping flowers off at Cassie's shop and I saw that and it made me think of you. PHIL "Hidden Treasures of the Pacific Northwest." ABIGAIL It's full of hidden architectural gems in that area. Did you know the architect who designed the Columbia River bridge put the outline of a rose in the concrete moorings? That was his wife's name. PHIL Artists have different ways of signing their work. Thank you. ABIGAIL You're welcome. PHIL I'll be back before you know it. ABIGAIL I'll know it. Come back soon, okay? PHIL I will. STEPHANIE Oh, I'm so looking forward to hear this author talk. PAUL What books of his have you read? STEPHANIE All of them. But I didn't know he was in town until I saw a poster in Cassie's shop. Yeah. Liam. Hi. LIAM Stephanie. And it's Paul, right? PAUL Yeah, yeah, hi. LIAM Good to see you. So, which of you is the Christopher Riley fan? PAUL That would be her. STEPHANIE Yeah. LIAM Well, I never thought I'd get so into historical fiction, but his World War Two trilogy made me a believer. STEPHANIE Have you seen him speak before? LIAM Twice. STEPHANIE Oh, well, it's my first time. LIAM Oh, you're going to love him. STORE OWNER Okay folks, come on in. LIAM Well, see you inside. STEPHANIE Okay, yeah. SAM How goes the hunt for that dress? CASSIE I feel like I'm getting closer. The music teacher gave me the name of her husband's cousin, but I found out that she gave the dress to a friend. SAM I didn't realize wedding dresses got passed around so much. CASSIE This one did. Because it was special. And the women who wore it wanted it should be shared. SAM So, who was the last one to have it? CASSIE Karen Zarish is the name I was given. But her friend lost track of her just after she got married, so I'm going to the last known address where she lived tomorrow. SAM You know what? I've got a light day. Why don't we go together? CASSIE It's bad luck for the groom to see the wedding dress before the wedding. SAM I thought that was only about seeing the bride in it. CASSIE You can never be too careful... SAM I'll look the other way. CASSIE Okay. SAM Plus it'll give us more time to go over the guest list. CASSIE Oh, I should warn you -- I've added a few names to mine. SAM Mine, too. It turns out people actually like me and want to see me pledge my life to the woman I love. CASSIE You shouldn't be so nice, 'cause then you wouldn't have this problem. SAM Yeah, I should rethink my whole personality. GRACE Stephanie? STEPHANIE Oh, hi, Grace. Don't you just love this place? I was just at a book reading and I thought I'd pop in to see if they had anything new on my way home. You looking for something special? GRACE No, I was just gonna see if they could maybe sell the dress I bought for the prom. STEPHANIE Why are you selling your prom dress? GRACE Because Noah and I were supposed to go together but he has a game that weekend in New York and I promised him that I'd go watch him play. STEPHANIE You're already thinking that far ahead? GRACE Yeah. Things are moving faster than I thought. MARLENE Hi. Can I help you? GRACE Do you sell dresses on consignment? MARLENE We sure do. GRACE Okay, then... I would like to consign this. Is that the right word? MARLENE It is. Oh, this is gorgeous. GRACE Thanks. MARLENE I'm sure it'll sell in no time. STEPHANIE That really is beautiful. I bet it looked good on you. GRACE Yeah. It did. STEPHANIE Here ya go. ABIGAIL Oh, thank you. MARTHA Oh, Abigail. I'm glad you're here. Another bid just came in for the old mill that your boyfriend is trying to purchase. STEPHANIE We're already calling Phil Abigail's boyfriend? MARTHA Well, what am I supposed to call him -- her man-pal? ABIGAIL I didn't know anyone else was even interested in the mill. MARTHA Well, no one was, until it got re- zoned so quickly. And by law the city is required to consider all bids. ABIGAIL Who's the other bidder? MARTHA Some out-of-town investors who want to repurpose it for mixed-use -- you know, shops and theatres and condominiums. ABIGAIL Phil already submitted a proposal to make it office space. MARTHA I don't care what people do with it, as long as the city gets paid. Which is why I intend to call Phil and see if he wants to re- submit a higher bid before the city council meets to consider all the offers. ABIGAIL You don't have to call him about that. MARTHA Are you sure? The other bidders seem very determined. ABIGAIL It's just -- things have been going so smoothly. I wouldn't want Phil to think there were any complicated about buying the mill. STEPHANIE I don't know why anyone would want to buy a haunted old mill, anyway. MARTHA Oh, that's just some silly story. STEPHANIE Then how do you explain what happened to me? ABIGAIL What happened? STEPHANIE Well, one night back in high school I was there with some friends and we saw them. The tulips, growing in the heart-shape, just like the legend says. MARTHA Tulips growing inside the mill? STEPHANIE In the very spot where that lady is said to have laid down every night, waiting for her husband to return. I don't care what anyone does with that place. I'm never stepping foot in there again. MARTHA Fine, then I guess they'll have one less customer. STEPHANIE Your sandwich is up, Noah. Here you go, with extra avocado -- to help power your swing. NOAH Avocados do that? STEPHANIE They are full of healthy fats to bulk you up. Now I'm going to get a little credit for every home run you hit. NOAH I'll make sure they mark that in the stats. STEPHANIE We're gonna miss seeing you around here. NOAH I'm not going anywhere for a while. STEPHANIE I know, but it still seems a little too soon. And Grace told me about the exhibition game you're going to. NOAH She told you about that? STEPHANIE Yeah, I ran into her down at the consignment shop when she was trying to sell her prom dress. I guess the dance is that same night so -- NOAH She won't be going? STEPHANIE It seemed she'd rather be with you instead. You know what? I'm going to get you some carrot cake, too. It's good for your eyes so you don't lose all those high fly balls in the lights. NOAH Thanks... SAM Are you sure this is the right address? CASSIE It's the one I was given... SAM Well, no one's living here now. MELINDA Can I help you find something? SAM Hi, yeah, we're looking for somebody who we thought might live here. CASSIE Karen Zarish? MELINDA Missus Zarish. I remember her. She and her husband owned the house that was here when I was a kid. But they moved after the fire. CASSIE There was a fire? MELINDA It was pretty scary. They just barely made it out but lost everything. SAM Everything? MELINDA That lot's been vacant ever since the Zarishes moved away. Until about two months ago. CASSIE Do you know where they moved to? MELINDA Sorry. We just barely knew them. SAM Well, thanks. CASSIE What kind of flowers are those? MELINDA Cyclamens. CASSIE They're a beautiful color. MARTHA As you can see, the potential of this space is virtually unlimited. It would make a wonderful destination for dining and entertainment, especially for someone with the foresight to buy a condominium here. BUSINESS PERSON Do you know who the original designer was? MARTHA Actually, I don't. But there are architectural surprises around every corner! ABIGAIL Has she told you about the ghost? This mill comes with its very own restless spirit. BUSINESS PERSON Nobody told us that this structure would be haunted. MARTHA Oh, that just an old wive's tale. ABIGAIL It's a tale about an angry and rejected wife. They say that when her spirit is the strongest, white tulips grow in the very spot where she died -- a symbol of her eternal grief. MARTHA Well, we don't need to concern ourselves with myths and legends. The next thing I want to show you is a space that could serve as a courtyard. It's just up here if you would follow me through this room. As you can see, on your left, they've preserved some of original mill machinery that adds to the rustic feel of the room and leads directly to the -- Tulips?! ABIGAIL Oh, wow. You'd have to check the story, but I'm pretty sure this is the exact spot where she laid down, every night. Waiting for her husband to return. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to live in a haunted mill. And I can't imagine anyone would want to buy a condo here, either. NOAH Hey, when you moved here from New York, weren't you kind of dating a girl? NICK Janine, yeah. NOAH Whatever happened with you and her? NICK Well, we tried to keep things going, but then it kind of just fizzled out. NOAH Why? NICK It wasn't fair to her. I was here in this new place and I didn't want to stop her from living her life. So we just flipped things back to us just being friends. NOAH Hmm... NICK I hope you're gonna throw it harder than that when you're at Fordham. NOAH Of course I will, because I'll be throwing it to someone who can actually catch. NICK Oh, okay, okay. SAM Are you doing okay? CASSIE Yeah, I'll be alright. SAM I know how much you wanted that dress. CASSIE I'll find something to wear. But I did find some other things that I want. I love the color of the flowers I saw today, for our wedding. The Cyclamens. And I would like a harpist to play. And I learned about this great idea where we each write letters to each other the night before we get married, and then read them on our first anniversary. SAM I love that. All of that. CASSIE And it doesn't matter what I end up wearing, because everyone is going to be looking at the good-looking groom standing next to me. SAM Where ya gonna find him? Oh wait, that's me! CASSIE Here you go. Oh. Good morning. ABIGAIL Well, it was until Martha called. Those people who wanted to buy the mill? They changed their minds when they thought it might be haunted. CASSIE Oh, does that mean Phil is gonna get it for sure? ABIGAIL No, they decided they still want to buy it! But they want to tear it down and build luxury town homes. I thought when they saw those tulips I planted they'd give up and go running. CASSIE You planted tulips? ABIGAIL Is that what I said? CASSIE Yeah. Exactly that. ABIGAIL Well, it was in memory of that poor woman who haunts the place. Now no one's going to remember her at all. CASSIE Doesn't the city council still have to approve which bid to accept? ABIGAIL Yes, but the other offer is higher than Phil's, and it's too late to submit a new one. SAM Good morning. ABIGAIL Yeah, whatever. SAM So, I woke up this morning and realized I'm all out of eggs. And bread. And coffee. CASSIE I think I might have all of that around here, somewhere. SAM Good. I did manage to add another page to my guest list, though. CASSIE Another whole page? SAM Yeah, that thing's like the Blob -- it just keeps growing. CASSIE Mine's starting to look Blob-like, too. Is that how we really want our wedding to be? With so many people there we hardly have time to connect with any of them? SAM Maybe we should start over. Just write down the people that we're sure we want there. CASSIE And then we can compare our lists when they're done. SAM Yeah. Hey, you made waffles. Good. I'm out of those, too. GRACE So, how far is New York from Middleton? NOAH Nine hundred and twenty-one miles. GRACE Okay. So that's not so far. I mean, if I had a car that went nine hundred miles per hour... NOAH You know, Grace, you don't have to put your life on hold for me. GRACE I'm not putting my life on hold. NOAH You've already decided not to go to the prom. GRACE How did you know that? NOAH It's a small town. Everybody talks. GRACE Yeah, I just decided... I mean, if you're not gonna be here, then who am I gonna go with? NOAH You can go with a group of friends, or -- I don't know. Somebody. GRACE But I wanted to go with you. NOAH And I want you to go. GRACE Yeah. I guess I could do that. NOAH Good. You know, Grace, thing's are going to change. Eventually. GRACE I know. Just not right now, okay? NOAH Okay. GRACE Where are you going? NOAH You know, I still haven't been able to get you all the way around. GRACE That is because it's never going to happen. NOAH And that sounds like a challenge. MARTHA Very well then, the motion passes. MARTHA The Middleton seal will be changed ever so slightly to more accurately reflect our history. Let it be so! Now, on to the next order of business -- voting to decide which bid to approve for the old mill. ABIGAIL Madam Mayor -- MARTHA Abigail, this is a closed meeting. ABIGAIL Have you approved the bid for the mill yet? MARTHA We were just about to. ABIGAIL Well, I think you'll want to hear what I have to say. MARTHA I guess I can go against protocol since I'm the one who makes it up. Come with me. Take five! Now, what is it that is so urgent that it just couldn't wait? ABIGAIL Well, I went back to the mill to dig up the tulips that I planted -- MARTHA You planted those?! ABIGAIL Okay, I might have done a little bit of gardening. But that's not the reason I'm here. I was in the mill looking around, sad that they were tearing it down, and I saw something I hadn't seen before. MARTHA The mill-woman's ghost? ABIGAIL No. It was something better. MARTHA A bird carving? ABIGAIL It's the same bird carving that Franklin Potts used to hide in every building he designed. MARTHA I thought Franklin Potts only designed buildings on the west coast. Very famous buildings. ABIGAIL I guess he designed one in Middleton, too. MARTHA Well, if a renowned architect like Franklin Potts designed the old mill, then that would make it a historical landmark. ABIGAIL Which is something you can't tear down. So I guess the city would have to accept the only bid that proposed to leave the exterior intact. MARTHA And that would be Phil Sturgis's plan. ABIGAIL Is it? Well, it looks like it's a good day for him, then. LIAM We have to stop meeting like this. STEPHANIE Yes. You know, you forget how small Middleton is until you go out and see the same people over and over again. LIAM Right. Are you here with Paul? STEPHANIE Oh, no. We hung out a couple of times but really didn't connect. He would definitely not be interested in seeing someone play the classical guitar. LIAM Well, then that's his loss. STEPHANIE Yeah. Oh, thank you. So, should I save you a seat? LIAM Oh, um... KRISTA Are you ready to go inside? LIAM Just about. Stephanie, this is Krista. STEPHANIE Oh. Hello. KRISTA Hi. LIAM Would you like something to drink? KRISTA No, thanks. LIAM Okay, I'll take one, thanks. KRISTA It was nice to meet you. STEPHANIE You, too. LIAM Enjoy. STEPHANIE Okay. ABIGAIL Phil. You're back! PHIL Yeah, um -- ABIGAIL I have some big news. PHIL I kind of have some news, too. ABIGAIL You won the bid. PHIL I what? ABIGAIL For the mill. You can put your company headquarters there. PHIL Oh, I wasn't sure that was going to get approved so quickly. ABIGAIL Well, things just kind of happen in Middleton. PHIL Yeah, but, um, I found a place in Portland. ABIGAIL A place for what? PHIL For my company's headquarters. ABIGAIL I didn't know you were even looking. PHIL I wasn't, really. But I found this campus that's just perfect. I mean, it's laid out in exactly the way I want my company to grow. And Portland already has the infrastructure of talent for me to staff things up. ABIGAIL But you said you really liked Middleton. PHIL I did. I mean, I do. But this is what's best for my company, so... ABIGAIL So you're going to be leaving? PHIL Tomorrow morning. Um, I'm sorry, Abigail. I know we had kind of had something started here, but -- I have investors to think about, and people who work for me. ABIGAIL Of course... PHIL But I like you, a lot -- ABIGAIL But you have to do what's best for your company. PHIL Right. ABIGAIL Okay, then. PHIL Okay. Thank you for everything. And if you're ever in Portland-- ABIGAIL I probably won't be. SAM Do you want to start? CASSIE No, you go. SAM I have Nick first -- CASSIE And Grace. SAM And then Liam, Abigail and Stephanie. CASSIE Those were next on my list. SAM And Eve, Martha and Tom. CASSIE Right. Brandon and Tara and Lori. SAM Yep, I have them, too. And then I put down Olympia and your foster mom -- CASSIE I have your sister, and your parents. SAM And -- We wrote down all the same people. CASSIE Look at that. SAM So, we can send out invitations tomorrow? CASSIE We can. Now that we're on exactly the same page. Grace. Hi. Did you and Noah have a good time at the park? GRACE I guess. SAM You know, I'm going to get going. Make sure we have all the contact information we need, okay? CASSIE Okay. See you soon. SAM Bye. CASSIE What's going on? GRACE Nothing. Noah and I just started talking about how things are going to be after we graduate. CASSIE And how are they going to be? GRACE I don't know. CASSIE Well, you've still got the rest of your senior year. GRACE Yeah. And he said that he wants me to go to the prom with some of my friends. CASSIE Yeah, you should. That'll be fun. GRACE If I can find a dress like the one I already got rid of. CASSIE What? GRACE I took the one that I bought to that new store to have it sold. CASSIE Well, we should go there together and see if we can find it. GRACE You think it'll still be there? CASSIE I think we'll find things we both like. Okay. MARLENE Oh, hello. You're back again? GRACE Hi. Yes, I am. And I'm hoping you still have that dress that I brought you. MARLENE I'm pretty sure I do. Although I don't remember exactly where I hung it... GRACE If it is in here, I will find it. MARLENE Okay. CASSIE Thank you. Okay, well let's look. Why don't you look in here, I'll look in the back. GRACE Okay. Yes. Mom? I think I found something.
