ABIGAIL ADAM CASSIE DISPATCHER DONOVAN GEORGE GERRY GRANT JOY MARTHA MAXINE MONICA SAM SEAN STEPHANIE TOM ZOEY CASSIE Previously on "Good Witch". SAM All I wanted to do was help sick people.. because I love doing what I’m doing. ZOEY Zoey. JOY Joy. ZOEY I went back after work and I got that faucet you recommended. JOY How about a good contractor? ZOEY I, I couldn’t ask you to do that. JOY Take my card, give me a call. DONOVAN Your ESKE award? ABIGAIL And now I’m going to win one with my own agency. DONOVAN You’ve never mentioned wanting your own agency. ABIGAIL I hadn’t thought about it in a long time. I definitely wouldn’t be up here without him. DONOVAN We make a good team. SAM Look what I found on the floor. CASSIE Oh.. that looks like a wet towel. SAM It’s not mine. CASSIE I wonder whose it could be. SAM If Middleton ever found out that Cassie Nightingale didn’t hang up her towel- CASSIE It would be scandalous. Almost as scandalous as finding out Sam Radford wears two different coloured socks. SAM Tell you what, you don’t mention the socks, I don’t mention the towel. CASSIE Deal.. I’ll even find you a match. CASSIE Oh.. three seconds on the clock. Sam Radford gets the ball at the top of the key. SAM At the buzzer. For the win. CASSIE Oh. CASSIE Oh.. and Damian Hall comes up with a huge block. SAM Two things.. one, your towel’s on the floor again and, two, Damian Hall couldn’t make that block with his torn rotator cuff. CASSIE Well, it’s a good thing he’s got you for a surgeon. SAM No pressure. CASSIE Why would there be pressure? He’s only the biggest basketball star on the planet. SAM Is this your idea of a pep talk? CASSIE Do you really need a pep talk? SAM Nah, I got this. CASSIE But.. you might need this. SAM My sister gave me that when I got got accepted to med school. SAM I retired this a while ago. CASSIE I think that might be your good luck charm. SAM I have had a pretty good career.. CASSIE Says the biggest surgeon on the planet.. in fact. CASSIE You’re making my heart race. ABIGAIL Wow. This is quite a spread. DONOVAN Just a little something I threw together. ABIGAIL Are you sure Stephanie didn’t throw it together? DONOVAN Least I squeezed the OJ myself. ABIGAIL From the carton. ABIGAIL This is really nice. DONOVAN Can you pass the syrup for me please? ABIGAIL What is this? DONOVAN Open it up, find out. DONOVAN Just because your flower shop sale fell through, I didn’t want you to give up on your ad agency dream. ABIGAIL I don’t know what to say. DONOVAN You just said it.. now, let’s eat. My homemade waffles are getting cold. MARTHA I just watched you take the same measurement thrice. JOY Guess I should’ve made my morning latte a double. MARTHA Late night out? JOY Sadly, I was in bed by ten. MARTHA Well then why is there no pep in your step? No glow in your flow.. JOY ‘Cause there’s no deep in my sleep. I’ve been having the same dream for months and I can’t seem to shake it. MARTHA Oh, I’ve been there. In mine, I’m bungee jumping with Dotty and she’s got a giant pair of scissors. JOY Mine isn’t a nightmare. It’s a childhood memory and every night I wake up at the same point in the dream. MARTHA You know what, I have the very thing to whisk you back to the land of Nod. JOY You keep it at the office? MARTHA I’m roommates with a newborn. I’ll take my slumber whenever and wherever it calls. JOY What is it, and how does it work? MARTHA It’s a dream pillow. You tuck it inside your pillowcase before you tuck yourself in and sweet dreams are made of this. JOY Who am I to disagree? MARTHA Catnip, lavender, and mugwort. It’s a Tinsdale signature blend. JOY You sure it’s not a Nightingale signature blend? MARTHA Well, Cassie may have had a hand in the original recipe, but I added a little motion to the potion. JOY You added mugwort. MARTHA I added mugwort.. oh. JOY Unfortunately, it’s not gonna work. MARTHA Oh I assure you, Dotty and her scissors have flown the coop. JOY No, I mean your walk-in closet. Unless you want to take over half of City Planning’s storage room. MARTHA Oh. JOY This is cool. MARTHA That is from one of our grandest traditions, The Middleton Exchange. JOY I thought you were one of Middleton’s grandest traditions. MARTHA Flattery will certainly get you the rest of the story. MARTHA Everyone bids adieu to a cherished item that has served its purpose, we spin the hopper, and then you magically get the exact item that you need in return. JOY I love everything about this.. except that it stopped. MARTHA Well, the Exchange was established on the ideals of paying it forward.. perhaps you can forward it to a new generation. JOY Sounds like a two woman job. MARTHA Do you really think? JOY I think it’s time we revived the Middleton Exchange. MARTHA Yes. Bravo. SAM What’s to love about giving someone your junk and getting their junk in return? GEORGE Nothin’, Doc.. which is why Laurel put the kibosh on the whole kit n’ kaboodle. GEORGE Contrary to popular opinion, one man’s trash is not another man’s treasure. CASSIE Laurel realized people started taking it for granted. GEORGE People stopped giving any thought to the items they were exchanging. JOY Well I’ve given it nothing but thought. GEORGE You think you can bring back the magic, kid? JOY I’m a Merriwick.. that’s how we roll, kid. CASSIE Sounds like someone’s going to start by paying it forward. SAM Maybe it starts with me. I’ll kick things off by donating my first stethoscope. JOY I’ll get the word out. GEORGE And I’ll help you.. right after I put this Dagwood out of its misery. STEPHANIE Two maple bacon donuts? STEPHANIE Are you going to eat both of these by yourself? SEAN Translation.. do I have a girlfriend? STEPHANIE Woah, take it down a notch there Romeo. I’m not asking for myself. The Bistro’s hosting speed dating tonight and we’re a man short. SEAN I could get into some speed dating. You just hosting or you playin’ the game? STEPHANIE Translation.. do I have a boyfriend? STEPHANIE I’m just hosting. SEAN Well.. try not to get too jealous. French is the language of love. SEAN See you tonight, alright. SEAN ‘Sup, bro. STEPHANIE Bienvenue au Bistro. Comment puis- je vous aider? ADAM Yes, it is nice out and, no, these aren’t skinny jeans. STEPHANIE I said, welcome to The Bistro, how can I help you? ADAM Well, you can help me understand why you’re suddenly fluent in French. STEPHANIE Not fluent yet, that’s why I’m taking a French class. ADAM Well so far, so good.. sounds like you have a heck of a teacher. STEPHANIE You just walked past each other. ADAM ‘Sup, bro is your French teacher? STEPHANIE Okay.. he actually has a lot of experience. ADAM I’m glad you’re finally learning French. STEPHANIE Are you? ADAM I am.. it’s just kinda weird that I didn’t know about it. STEPHANIE It’s not that weird.. we’re not together. ADAM We’re still friends.. aren’t we? STEPHANIE Of course we are. STEPHANIE Now how about I get my friend a cup of coffee? ADAM Thanks. ADAM Have a great class tonight. STEPHANIE Class it tomorrow night. ADAM But I thought. ADAM Never mind. TOM Deviled eggs. MARTHA Hands off.. these little whipped wonders are for Maxine. TOM I knew it. These eggs are nothing but chicanery. MARTHA One man’s chicanery is another woman’s hospitality. TOM You haven’t been hospitable to Mazine since the blanket went missing. MARTHA Like I told Maxine when I invited her to come meet little Tomi, it’s time we get past the past. TOM She bought that bill of goods? MARTHA Like you buy maraschino cherries.. and I told her not to bring a gift, to just bring herself. TOM Subtle. MARTHA But effective. She was so touched, she said she wouldn’t think of coming without a gift. TOM It won’t be the blanket, Martha. MARTHA We’ll see. TOM Her story hasn’t changed in twenty- seven years, it’s not going to change now. MARTHA That’s a bill of goods I’m not buying. ABIGAIL This is interesting. CASSIE That I’m trimming a Bonsai tree? ABIGAIL That it took you this long to get a Bonsai tree. CASSIE You want to try? It’s really relaxing. ABIGAIL I can’t relax, Donovan just wrote me a cheque with a lot of zeros.. he wants to back my ad agency. CASSIE And you’re uncomfortable accepting that? ABIGAIL Stubbing my toe is uncomfortable, this is unbearable. CASSIE Sounds unbearable. ABIGAIL I get it.. it’s incredibly generous. CASSIE Well, as long as you get it. ABIGAIL I don’t want to be indebted to the Davenports. CASSIE You’re about to become a Davenport. ABIGAIL Would you take the money if Sam offered it to you? CASSIE Well, I’m not opening my own ad agency. ABIGAIL You know what I mean. CASSIE I do.. and I would. CASSIE That’s how it works in a marriage.. it’s a partnership. ABIGAIL I’m not sure that that works for me. CASSIE Okay, what’s your idea of marriage? ABIGAIL That everything stays pretty much the same. CASSIE Okay, and what’s Donovan’s idea of marriage? ABIGAIL I don’t really know. CASSIE You may want to find out. JOY Voila. ZOEY I’m impressed. JOY Well, I’m impressive. ZOEY And modest.. where did you learn all this handyman stuff? JOY From a handywoman.. my mom. She’s the reason I became a renovator. ZOEY Well, my mom can’t tell the difference between a hammer and a nail.. but she can scale a two hundred foot rock face. ZOEY We’ve been climbing together since I was five. JOY Wow. I was trying to get over a serious fear of heights when I was five. ZOEY And how’d that work out for ya? JOY Well, you are looking at a junior gymnastics silver medalist. ZOEY Okay, scared of you. JOY Says the woman who’s getting her pilot’s license. ZOEY Since you conquered your fear maybe you could be my first passenger. JOY Yeah, I might be willing to take that ride. JOY Wow. Is that the Grand Canyon? I’ve always wanted to go there. JOY You two look really happy. ZOEY We were. JOY But not anymore? ZOEY Thanks for putting that in but I, I really need to get back to the firehouse. JOY Oh, yeah. Any time. I’ll just pack this stuff up. SAM Knowing you would never interrupt my pre-surgery shoot around.. this must be important. ADAM Cool if I join? SAM You’re going to have a hard time playing in those shoes. ADAM Not as hard a time as I’m having with Stephanie. SAM Thought you guys broke up. ADAM We did. SAM Don’t tell me you’re trying to be friends. ADAM I guess I don’t have to. SAM Didn’t you see When Harry Met Sally? ADAM I didn’t SAM You should. SAM You want my advice? ADAM Sorta why I’m here. SAM You’re not gonna wanna hear it. ADAM Okay, then don’t tell me. ADAM No, you should tell me. SAM You can’t be friends with an ex. ADAM You shouldn’t have told me. SAM Especially one you’re still in love with. ADAM I’m going to have to ask you to stop talking now. ADAM Oh man.. I’m sorry.. are you okay? SAM I don’t think so. MONICA Neurapraxia of the- SAM Radial nerve. Yeah I see it. MONICA Well the good news is it’s not a rupture. SAM The bad news is I won’t be doing surgery anytime soon. MONICA Let’s focus on getting this healed so you won’t need surgery anytime soon. MONICA And you know the drill, plenty of rest, alternate between ice and heat, we’ll get you started on anti-inflammatories and physical therapy and we’ll do another MRI in a month. GRANT What’s the verdict? MONICA Jury’s gonna be out for awhile. GRANT Can they deliberate after Damian Hall’s surgery? SAM Surgery’s canceled. GRANT This is a PR nightmare.. how soon can we reschedule? SAM I gotta go talk to Damian. ADAM How’d the MRI go? SAM I have to cancel Damian Hall’s surgery. ADAM Sam. ADAM I’m sorry. STEPHANIE I had my very first glass of champagne in one of these. JOY I don’t remember my first glass of champagne. CASSIE Sounds like you had more than one glass. STEPHANIE Well maybe these can help someone else inspire joy for others. JOY Well Joy will gladly take them for the exchange. CASSIE Well it looks like word spread quickly. STEPHANIE Which one of these goodies came from you? CASSIE Oh, the clay tablet. It’s from my first archaeological dig. CASSIE Everything okay? JOY With me, yeah, but I’m not so sure about Martha. STEPHANIE Well that’s a new look. JOY Yeah, what’s with the getup? MAXINE Oh. Ya’ll mean my outfit? I think it’s quite smart. STEPHANIE It’s just not quite you.. and your glasses. MAXINE Help me to see. JOY Did you not have them on when you picked out your sweater? JOY Just doesn’t have your usual flair. MAXINE You mean because it’s not loud and obnoxious. STEPHANIE Oh, we would never say that. CASSIE And neither would Martha so you must be. MARTHA Maxine Endicott. My favourite cousin. MAXINE Martha Tinsdale. My oldest cousin. JOY I can’t believe there’s two of them. MARTHA Maxine two-stepped all the way from Texas just to meet little Tomi. MAXINE Actually Maxine took a plane, but I can see you’re just as colourful as ever Martha. CASSIE Well it sounds like you two have a lot of catching up to do. MARTHA Oh, you don’t know the half of it. DONOVAN Picture this.. Ads by Abigail. DONOVAN Okay, we can work on that, but picture this.. huge open loft, floor to ceiling windows, two conference rooms. I know you probably always pictured your agency in Middleton, but my family owns this amazing postmodern building in downtown Blairsville. You could have it for half the rent which means you could use the other half of the money I gave you to grow your brand. ABIGAIL My brand or your brand? DONOVAN Okay. You’re right, this is your baby, but I’m just very excited for you. ABIGAIL I can’t take your money. DONOVAN Why not? ABIGAIL Because it’s your money. DONOVAN No, it’s our money. ABIGAIL Is that what marriages means to you? DONOVAN It means we share everything. ABIGAIL It doesn’t have to. DONOVAN Kinda does. ABIGAIL What else don’t we know about each other? DONOVAN We broke a two hundred year old curse, I’m sure we can figure this out. ABIGAIL I think we spent so much time breaking the curse that we missed a few things. ZOEY Careful, I know somebody who got their arm caught in that wall. JOY Well, she must’ve been really embarrassed. ZOEY She was a trooper. JOY Those for me? ZOEY Only if you draw them in the Middleton exchange.. where do you want ‘em? JOY Just on the table over there. ZOEY And where do you want my apology? JOY You don’t owe me an apology. ZOEY I got weird when you saw the picture. JOY I shouldn’t’ve been so nosy. ZOEY Her name’s Avery. ZOEY We were together for two years. She died in the line of duty. JOY I’m so sorry. ZOEY You’re the only person that I’ve told that to since I’ve moved here. JOY I can’t imagine how hard that must’ve been. ZOEY She pulled a little boy out of a three alarm fire.. she gave him oxygen. ZOEY Avery took in too much smoke. I tried to give her CPR but.. JOY She sounds like a real hero. ZOEY She was. ZOEY I came to Middleton to start over. JOY You definitely came to the right place. ZOEY Everybody here’s been great. JOY But it’s still been rough. DISPATCHER Engine 51, we have a non emergency response code three on Brookwood Drive. JOY Toe in a toy? ZOEY This time it’s actually a cat in a tree. ZOEY This is Taylor. Copy that. En route. ZOEY Thanks for listening. JOY Yeah, anytime. ABIGAIL Are you just going to walk by, and not say hello? ADAM I didn’t realize I’d walked this far. ABIGAIL Come on in. ABIGAIL Relationship troubles? ADAM No.. well, yes, but really friend troubles. ABIGAIL Are you talking about Stephanie? Because you can’t be friends-- ADAM Friends with an ex. Yeah, I know. ABIGAIL You should try being friends with your fiancé. ADAM Not the first time I’ve heard that. ABIGAIL Oh right, people tell you their problems, don’t they? ADAM I’m a pretty good listener. ABIGAIL Is your advice any good? ADAM I get five stars on Google. ABIGAIL What would you tell an engaged couple with totally different views on marriage? ADAM I’d tell them it’s time for pre-marital counseling. ABIGAIL Okay great.. I would like to maintain my independence and Donovan-- ADAM Isn’t here. if we’re gonna do this then I need to talk to you two together. DONOVAN Donovan would never do counseling. ADAM You’d be surprised. SAM Yeah.. thanks Myles. CASSIE Dr. Gastin? SAM Yeah.. he read the MRI and confirmed what I already knew. CASSIE Maybe I should’ve made these long island iced teas. CASSIE Does he think you need the surgery? SAM It’s too soon to tell. CASSIE Well you know better than anyone that the mind can hep heal the body. SAM I also know there’s a chance I may never operate again. CASSIE Sounds like a good time for the Pirate King’s adventure. SAM What’s that? CASSIE Board game you used to play with your sister when you were kids. SAM I forgot about that. CASSIE Tried to get it for you last year for your birthday, but they don’t make it anymore. SAM Yeah, well, the Pirate King couldn’t help me right now anyway. MAXINE That baby is as precious as a pup. MARTHA You’re preachin’ to the choir, cousin. MAXINE And she’s got Tom’s shoe button eyes. MARTHA That’s funny. Tom said he thought she had my eyes. MAXINE That is funny. Well, I should go unpack. I’ve got a present for little Tomi in my suitcase. MARTHA Lovely.. but I did say just you being here was enough. MAXINE I couldn’t come empty handed. MARTHA Well, what’s got your hands so full? MAXINE Something that means a great deal to me. It’s my sterling silver rattle from when I was a tot. MARTHA A rattle? MAXINE You sound disappointed. MARTHA Oh, no. No, not at all. I’m just a little preoccupied that’s all. I’m trying to pick out something that means a great deal to me to give to the Middleton Exchange. You know, that cherished town tradition that all started when we Endicotts gifted the Merriwicks our family blanket. The blanket that was then handed back and forth between our families for generations with each new baby, right up until Dylan was born. MAXINE When it mysteriously disappeared. MARTHA Oh, did it? I don’t recall. MAXINE Really? Because I recall you blaming me for taking it. Apparently, this whole invitation was just a ruse to try to get me to come and return that blanket. MARTHA So you admit to taking it. MAXINE Why don’t you admit to stealing Tom from me. MARTHA Honestly. Not that old chestnut again, that’s as stale as Texas toast. MAXINE I knew that coming here was a mistake. MARTHA Well luckily that’s a mistake that can be easily rectified. MAXINE Look at that, we finally agree on something. MARTHA Honestly. ADAM Hey. ADAM I brought you Tony’s hot wings. SAM Thanks. ADAM What’re you watching? SAM The Natural. ADAM Oh, man, Redford as Roy Hobbs. That’s a classic. It’s definitely in my top five. ADAM You want a wing? SAM I’m just trying to finish this movie. ADAM I know you blame me, Sam. SAM I never said it was your fault. ADAM You haven’t said much of anything. ADAM I’ll let you get back to your movie. JOY I know what it feels like to lose somebody so I feel like I could’ve said more. STEPHANIE Well, maybe the next time you see her you will. STEPHANIE Lean Shephard just backed out. We’re down a dater. JOY That puts a speed bumb in speed dating. STEPHANIE Not if I can find a replacement. JOY Think you just did. STEPHANIE Really, you’d do that? JOY No. but I will host so you can. MAXINE The blanket’s really just the last turnip to fall off the truck. CASSIE Tom was the first? MAXINE Did Martha tell you that? CASSIE Lucky guess. MAXINE You know, he was supposed to be my Tom. I was paired with him on a double blind date. Martha was matched with Gerry Ridley. We all went to the record store, Martha and Tom both reached for that copy of Rocket Man and ended up over the moon. CASSIE And you think that was your one chance at true love? MAXINE Well I know I’m still alone. CASSIE You’re not alone.. you’ve actually had a grudge keeping you company for thirty years. CASSIE Until you break up, you’re not free to meet anyone else. MAXINE That song is right.. breaking up is hard to do. DONOVAN I don’t like where we left things. ABIGAIL I wasn’t exactly doing cartwheels.. but I think I have a solution. DONOVAN I’m listening. ABIGAIL Actually.. Adam would be listening. DONOVAN You think we need counseling? ABIGAIL I think we need something. DONOVAN Apparently Adam agrees. ABIGAIL He would just be helping us work through this. DONOVAN We’re not even married yet. Counseling is for when your marriage is in trouble. ABIGAIL Or to stop it from getting there. GEORGE Your light switch is all fixed. ABIGAIL Thanks, George. GEORGE I don’t want to pry, but take it from a guy who’s been around the block once or twice.. counseling is never a bad idea. DONOVAN No offense, but I think Abigail and I can handle this on our own. GEORGE Lemme ask you this, kid.. when you were running for mayor, you had a debate right? DONOVAN Yeah what does that have to do with anything? GEORGE Since you got elected, I’m guessing it went well. DONOVAN It went very well. GEORGE You think it could’ve gone that well without a moderator? ABIGAIL We’ll take that silence as a no. STEPHANIE Wow, would you look at that. Five minutes just flew by, didn’t it? SEAN You two running off to elope? STEPHANIE Cupid’s arrow didn’t exactly hit the bull’s eye. SEAN Yeah cupid’s definitely been over bowed tonight. STEPHANIE Over bowed? SEAN Yeah, it’s an archery term. STEPHANIE Meaning the weight of the bow is too much throws the shot off. SEAN How do you know archery? STEPHANIE I picked it up as a kid at summer camp.. actually won the gold medal in the Camp Weehawkin Olympics. SEAN Must be nice. I never got a chance for a gold medal. STEPHANIE What can I say, not everybody is Olympic material. SEAN You know.. that’s not the first time I’ve heard that.. one round away from making it to Rio. STEPHANIE The actual Olympics? SEAN Well it’s no Camp Weehawkin, but the ladies were impressed. SEAN We should.. we should go nock sometime. STEPHANIE Saved by the bell. CASSIE Well I knew if anyone could help, it would be you. TOM Here’s the good news, Sam is doing what guys have done since the dawn of time. CASSIE Brood, shut down, pull back? TOM He’s retreated into his man cave. CASSIE So I should give him some time.. some space.. and a chance to figure it out on his own. TOM All of the above. CASSIE I know you’re right.. TOM But you wish I wasn’t TOM Sometimes the best thing you can do is.. is nothing at all. JOY Nice canoe. ZOEY You mean the Titanic? ZOEY Avery and I spent eight months building this thing. The entire time she joked that it would probably sink the second we put it on the water. JOY Never got to take it out. ZOEY Never even got to paint it. JOY I know what it feels like.. to lose someone. JOY My mom died when I was seventeen. ZOEY I’m sorry. JOY Took me a long time to be at peace with it. ZOEY I don’t know if I ever will. JOY You know when I was ten we found this baby squirrel in our front yard and we named him Bow Tie because he had this little grey patch on his chest. ZOEY Hard not to love a squirrel named Bow Tie. JOY My mom bottle fed Bow Tie. She loved this squirrel and eventually he got big and we had to let him go but we sorta just figured he’d stick around the yard. Clearly Bow Tie had other plans. ZOEY Well, I’m sure he never forgot about you. JOY I was sitting on the front porch a year after I lost my mom and still really struggling with her not being there. JOY Guess who showed up? JOY That’s the moment I knew I was going to be okay. ZOEY You think Bow Tie makes house calls? JOY I think If you just hang in there, you’ll have your own Bow Tie moment. ADAM Marriage doesn’t mean you suddenly stop being you, but you do have to make some sacrifices. ABIGAIL Like what? DONOVAN Like what’s mine is yours and what’s yours is mine. ABIGAIL Please tell me he’s wrong. ADAM Why don’t you tell Donovan why that makes you feel uncomfortable. ABIGAIL Because I have always taken care of myself. DONOVAN But you don’t have to anymore. ABIGAIL Well I can’t just stop. ADAM Just ‘cause you started playing doubles doesn’t mean that you can’t still play singles. DONOVAN A good doubles partner lets you play to your strength. ABIGAIL What if I’m a terrible doubles partner? DONOVAN You’re too competitive to be terrible. ABIGAIL If I’m gonna bring my A game, I might need a little more practice. DONOVAN I’m okay with that. ADAM Looks like the future Mr. and Mrs. Davenport just made their first compromise. DONOVAN I like the sound of that. ABIGAIL Well.. you’re not going to like the sound of this. ABIGAIL I want to keep my name. DONOVAN You do? ABIGAIL I do. MARTHA Tom, have you seen Maxine’s phone? Apparently she left it behind when she stormed out yesterday. MAXINE Believe me, it wasn’t on purpose. TOM No phone, but I did find this old picture of you two. Wasn’t this the homecoming game? MARTHA No, that was the city championship. MAXINE Against Chaminade. MARTHA Look at us, M&M firing up the squad. TOM Middleton High has never had better co-captains than the dynamic duo of M&M. MARTHA We were sweeter then candy. MAXINE No one cheered louder than you, Martha. MARTHA Well no one could do a double backflip into a high V like you. MAXINE Still can. MARTHA Maxine’s mirth.. we did have so many adventures together. TOM Including this one. MARTHA The record store. MAXINE Our double date. TOM Wonder whatever happened to old Gerry Ridley. MARTHA I still can’t believe the moving company broke our Rocket Man 45. MAXINE Really, what a shame. MARTHA Well looks like this little stroll down memory lane has hit a pothole. TOM You want a stroll down memory lane, look at this box of the boys’ old toys. That’s where I found this. MARTHA Oh look.. it’s Licorice the Llama. It was quite a nice gift, Maxine. MAXINE Well I, I knew how much your boys loved llamas. TOM Dylan also loved to hide his binkies in there. MARTHA Oh my goodness, the first time he did it it took us three days to find it. TOM Take a peek, just for old time’s sake. MARTHA Oh my. MAXINE The family blanket. MARTHA Dylan must’ve hidden it in here.. Oh Maxine, can you ever forgive me? MAXINE If you can forgive me for accusing you of stealing Tom. MAXINE There has never been a more perfect couple. STEPHANIE Please say that’s not another recipe. SEAN Ten minutes early. Look who’s just bucking for teacher’s pet. STEPHANIE Thought we could use a little time to talk. SEAN About our undeniable chemistry? STEPHANIE I’ll admit, there was a spark. SEAN Come on please, that was a blaze. STEPHANIE Yeah, you know those helicopters that drop water on those blazes? SEAN That’s you? STEPHANIE That’s me. SEAN That’s ridiculous. Alright look, you give me one good reason why we shouldn’t go out. STEPHANIE I’ll give you three. One, you’re my teacher. Two, you’re younger than me.. just a little. And, three, I just got out of a relationship. SEAN Okay well one, this is the Learning Annex, not Harvard. Two, I’m much younger than you. And, three, I’ve got no problem being the rebound guy. STEPHANIE What about seven? SEAN There was no seven. STEPHANIE No, that’s what time you’re going to pick me up tomorrow night. GEORGE I didn’t want to interrupt. ADAM I’m getting pretty attached to this place. GEORGE Well we may not have to say our goodbyes to her just yet. ADAM Tell me you got the owner to say we can move it? GEORGE The church is ours.. but so is the hefty price tag to ease on down the road. ADAM How hefty? GEORGE A lot more than the collection plate will hold. MARTHA And now, the triumphant return of the Middleton Exchange. MARTHA I have in my hand the first gift. JOY Alright, let’s get this hopper hoppin’. JOY Adam.. Stephanie.. Maxine. JOY The next gift goes to Cassie.. which means that the last gift must be Sam’s. CASSIE Awh, well I will take these home so that Sam and I can open them together. JOY Awh, okay. Well everybody else, go for it. STEPHANIE This was Adam’s, from his trip. CASSIE Well now it’ll bring you luck on your adventure. ADAM I haven’t played chess since highschool. GEORGE I got a moon rock. ADAM You wanna trade? GEORGE That’s not the way it works, patre. JOY Oh, you can use those at your wedding. ABIGAIL Yeah. ABIGAIL And you can use those.. what are those? CASSIE They’re rune stones.. they help gain insight into questions or situations. TOM This will look perfect in the library. MARTHA And we can use it to play this copy of Rocket Man. MAXINE Well, looks like you two got exactly what you needed.. of course. I got this clay tablet. MARTHA Oh.. how interesting. GERRY It’s more than interesting. It’s Mesopotamian. MARTHA Gerry Ridley? MAXINE From our double date? TOM I haven’t seen you in years, Gerry. Where have you been hiding? GERRY I’ve been teaching history in Texas. MAXINE I live in Texas. MAXINE Now. What do you think that means? SAM That thing doesn’t look too hot. CASSIE Broken branch doesn’t want to heal. SAM Fixing breaks can be tricky. CASSIE I have a feeling the break is only part of the problem. CASSIE Root rot. SAM Good call. CASSIE Yeah. When the chi, the life force, gets disrupted, it can affect other parts of the tree. SAM Or other parts of the body. CASSIE There’s chi in all living things. SAM I gotta get to the hospital. CASSIE What’s wrong? SAM I think Damian Hall.. may have a case of root rot. SAM Hey. CASSIE Hey.. how’s Damian? SAM Well, thanks to your Bonsai he’s gonna be fine. His posterior descending artery was ninety-eight percent blocked.. basically his chi was disrupted. But Monica did a bypass and he came through like a champ. CASSIE So he really did have root rot. SAM In rare cases a rotator cuff injury can be connected to a heart problem.. Damian’s blood pressure was elevated which can come from pain, but your little tree-- CASSIE Got you to look beyond the branch.. and you’re still a superstar without picking up your scalpel. SAM I drew up the play, but Monica made the winning basket. CASSIE Well, every team needs a great head coach. SAM I appreciate it, but I would rather be on the court, not on the sideline. CASSIE Why don’t you open up your gift? SAM Guess I have no choice. SAM Pirate King’s Adventure. CASSIE How come I thought I’d never see you smile again. SAM It’ll get a lot bigger when I sink your pirate ship. CASSIE Oh yeah, bring it on. STEPHANIE Woah.. I think you need this. ADAM I think you’re a mind reader. STEPHANIE Don’t tell anyone. Right now.. You’re thinking about Sam? STEPHANIE Cassie told me. ADAM I just keep thinking if I hadn’t gone up for that rebound. STEPHANIE You cannot blame yourself. ADAM Sam does. STEPHANIE Oh, are you a mind reader now too? ADAM That would actually be helpful.. he won’t talk to me. STEPHANIE You want my advice? ADAM Always. STEPHANIE Don’t let him not talk to you. He needs his friends right now.. ADAM I’m just not so sure he still considers me one of them. STEPHANIE Let me check. STEPHANIE Yeah. He still considers you his best friend. ADAM What about us? STEPHANIE Oh I am feeling what the French call déjà vu. ADAM I know we said we wanted to be friends.. but is it realistic? ADAM What? STEPHANIE We are drinking coffee. We are sharing inside jokes. You had a problem and I just gave you chaplain-level advice.. ADAM All the things that friends do. STEPHANIE Now you’re reading my mind. ZOEY Hey. JOY We missed you at the Middleton Exchange. ZOEY Believe me, I would’ve much rather been there than washing fire trucks. ZOEY Yeah.. I was gonna do it and then I figured I’d sweep up instead. JOY Well why don’t you take a break and open your gift? ZOEY Are you sure there’s a gift in here? JOY There’s only one way to find out. ZOEY You did this. JOY What? What is it? ZOEY My bow tie moment. JOY May I? JOY It’s perfect. ZOEY Hey. Do you wanna help me a canoe? JOY Yeah. DONOVAN Can you tell Mr.Franklin that Major Davenport called again. DONOVAN Thank you. DONOVAN Guess you’re up fifteen – love? ABIGAIL If we were playing singles.. but I was thinking we could team up for doubles. DONOVAN I can get behind Abigail Pershing and Donovan Davenport taking on the world. ABIGAIL I think I would be a better teammate if I was Abigail Pershing-Davenport. DONOVAN I like the sound of that. ABIGAIL Well you’re gonna like this even more. CASSIE You really should talk to him. SAM You really should open your gift. CASSIE Well I guess I have no choice. SAM Not what you were expecting? CASSIE This belonged to my parents.
