07:03i am really glad you're here me too
07:12good morning morning
07:17okay count that up kid he went for a walk
07:21he just needed a little space
07:27i guess he's still upset
07:34do you think jed's making the right decision not accepting treatment
07:40i could buy him some time but to be honest
07:45i don't know how much
07:51i didn't believe the doctors at first when they told us
07:55jed seemed fine well pancreatic cancer is easy to miss
08:00but there aren't a lot of symptoms
08:05i'm worried about cal
08:09yeah me too this is gonna be hard on him
08:16he's been angry with his father for so long
08:23what did he tell you about jed
08:28just that life with him was difficult he could be unpredictable
08:36managing jed's condition with four kids was hard
08:43i relied on cal for help he grew up fast
08:50carried more on his shoulders than any child should have to
08:55i don't think he ever forgave jed for not being the father he needed
09:01what about the others
09:05what was different for them and they had cal to lean on
09:10he was there for them i don't want you thinking it was all bad
09:14oh we had plenty of good days together too
09:20i just wish cal could remember that
09:24so
09:30hey you ready made an appointment with another realtor
09:35we've already looked at everything available
09:38what are you doing looking to see if anybody's hiring a chef
09:42that seems to be a dead end too
09:46i think i'm gonna have to move somewhere with more options
09:50like leave timberland but you can't just move this is your home
09:58your friends are here what other choice do i have
10:20i don't care about my own kids no of course not i i just i know what's
10:38best for this family we can't keep doing this
10:41the kids need stability i want us to have a proper home
10:46hey chopped enough firewood for a month
10:52blowing off some steam i can see that
10:59maybe talking would help honestly i don't really know what i'm
11:04feeling right now
11:10why don't we get out of here get a little distance from
11:14all this where do you want to go i think i know a place might help give
11:20you a little perspective
11:26i appreciate this maggie i do but i really don't know if i'm up for a
11:30balloon ride right now trust me i've been once and it is it's
11:34amazing there's something comforting about looking at the world from way up
11:38there

12:22hours rafe yeah we always get them done by the end
12:25of the week

12:34running things now and i want them done by the book that means i expect those
12:38reports on my desk before you go today copy that
12:52how about this one that is parmelia silcata cracked shield
12:59lichen lives on deciduous trees it's a lot more
13:03sturdy than some of the other species out here

13:10i cook and practice traditional medicine should actually help use it to treat my
13:14diabetes why nova scotia
13:19to be honest
13:22i was hoping i'd get to know you and end a little better we didn't really get to
13:26spend a lot of time together when he came to the res
13:29and i'm sorry about that i'm just glad you and my father were able to work
13:33things out me too they actually wanted me to let

14:21takes as long as it takes
14:25morning edna sally hey sydney hey i thought i'd stop by and see if
14:32you needed a hand with anything perfect timing these need frosting sure
14:38i'm sorry to hear that rob lost his new diner space
14:40yeah we've been trying to find another location but
14:44no luck starting to get a little worried why because rob's talking about moving
14:51moving where somewhere he can find work as a chef
14:55no no we can't let that happen there's got to be something we can do
14:58i'm not sure there's anything to do unless you happen to know of a location
15:01we haven't looked at yet i think i might have an idea
15:07i wanna go up up and away from this place that i call
15:12i've been waiting for the day since i was 17 years old
15:18so peaceful it's like we're disconnected from everything that's going on down
15:23there
15:39you know seeing the world from way up here
15:43helps remind me that i'm not the only one in the world with problems
15:54i know things between you and your father haven't been
16:02good for a long time
16:06but i think if you want to you could fix it
16:11i don't think that's possible
16:16well whatever you decide i just i want you to know that i'll be here to
16:22help you get through it it means a lot
16:32thank you for doing this for me
16:40oh
16:47well my great great grandfather built this place as a social hall
16:53used to hold scottish kayleys here
17:00it's been sitting empty for years always meant to fix it up one day
17:04put it to put it to good use but i just never got around to it
17:10wow this place is huge so what do you think
17:19this place is incredible
17:23i can't accept this sully why not i still owe you the money you gave me
17:27and sarah when we opened the diner that was a gift all right you'd be doing
17:31me a big favor by taking it off my hands how so well uh
17:37all right glenn bought some land next to the crossing
17:40tell me you're joking he's developing a fancy resort on it oh so we're gonna
17:47need all the help we can get having a restaurant with a talented
17:50chef on location it's gonna draw a lot of people to us
17:56it'll need a little tlc but it really is perfect rob
18:02so we got a deal sully we got a deal all right
18:09huh
18:20cal can we talk why don't i go wash up and check on jet
18:27okay
18:34you should have told me mom i wanted to your father made me promise not to say
18:40anything i'm sorry i thought maybe things had changed
18:46clearly they haven't you're always letting him tell you what to do
18:51you're putting him first is that really how you felt
18:58we were just kids we needed you too but what about us
19:06i wanted you to have a father in your life cal
19:09even if that meant having one that wasn't perfect
19:14he loved you did you really want me to turn my back on him when he needed us
19:20i know i wasn't there for you the way i should have been
19:23and i will never be able to forgive myself for that but
19:27i i did everything i could
19:33and i wish your father hadn't been sick and i wish things could have been
19:38different for all of us i'm sorry
19:44i never thought about how hard it was for you to
19:49the person is hardest on is your father remember that
20:05how are you feeling
20:08a bit better glad to hear it come sit with me
20:20i'm really happy that i got a chance to meet you maggie
20:24me too marissa and i we worry about cal
20:31losing lynn that was hard for him we weren't sure
20:38if he'd be able to find his way back from that
20:42but now he's got you
20:46and i'm grateful and i can leave this world knowing
20:50he's gonna be okay
20:57it really broke my heart you know when he moved away
21:03and i never understood why he did that
21:10until now and it just tears me up knowing that i'm the reason that he's
21:16gonna carry around all that anger for the rest of his life
21:22i always hoped one day we get a chance to
21:26just talk things out
21:32that he would forgive me
21:36but i don't think that's gonna happen now
21:43maybe it's not too late
21:46no i think cal's made it pretty clear how he feels
21:52a little tired i think i'm gonna go lay down
22:05no way what is it it's boreal felt it's a rare
22:15species of lichen i can't believe this
22:21something wrong
22:26you see this black spot here i think i might be dying
22:30what is that this particular lichen is sensitive to environmental toxins
22:36environmental toxins huh follow me
22:47like the kind you get from nearby construction
23:01hey things go okay with your mother yeah
23:08had a good chat cleared the air i'm glad yeah
23:16what about jet you're gonna talk to him too
23:19i can't yeah you know i don't want to say anything else i'll regret
23:25he really wants to make things right with you cal i think it's a little late
23:29for that don't you maggie
23:33this is your chance right to tell him how you feel and to hear what he has to
23:38say look if you can't do it for yourself can
23:41you maybe do it for him
23:45now he's finally decided to take his medication
23:50now he wants to talk
23:54what about all those years ago when i needed him i know
23:58i get it i do that's how i felt about sully until i heard his side of
24:03the story
24:07don't you think you at least owe it to him just
24:11just let him explain i don't think i can why not
24:19i can't say goodbye
24:26i did it with lynn and uh
24:34it was the hardest thing i've ever had to do
24:44i don't think i can do that again
24:49i know this isn't easy cal i'm just worried that if you don't do
24:54this that you're gonna regret it
25:19so
25:28can i sit with him for a little bit
25:33that'd be nice
25:49remember he loves you
26:20so
26:32hey you can't sleep i heard a noise i think it was a monster you think it
26:37was a monster oh no okay those monsters
26:43any monster comes near you they're gonna have to go through me first
26:47so i'm gonna roar those monsters away how about i give you a piggyback ride
26:52back to bed hop on california
26:57giddy up here we go
27:01you howl
27:05let's roar those monsters away
27:09so
27:17you're back how'd it go we found some rare lichen
27:21but it looks like something's killing it off really
27:24and jacob thinks that it might be coming from the new development
27:28you mean glenn's construction site so on
27:31wow that might be what we need to shut him down
27:35you can't go around accusing people without evidence we have evidence
27:42what's that a sample of the dying lichen i'll get it tested
27:47see if there's any signs of toxic chemicals how long will that take
27:50probably a few weeks if he's using something toxic we have to shut him down
27:54now
27:57let's go talk to somebody at the nova scotia environmental agency
28:01maybe we should think about this first come on let's show them what you've got
28:19thank you for being here for cal i can see how much it means to him
28:25i understand what it's like to be estranged from your father
28:28i didn't see mine for a very long time
28:32you understand how he feels i do
28:37but i also know what it feels like to finally let go of all that hurt
28:42you carry around inside you and i want cal to be able to do that
28:48i can tell you love my son very much i do
28:55when i first met jed i was hitchhiking across colorado
29:02jed picked me up
29:05now things were good at the beginning
29:08but then he started developing symptoms and
29:12complaining that the world had lost its color
29:19eventually things got worse doctors prescribed pills
29:23jed didn't like the way they made him feel so he decided to manage his
29:27condition through diet meditation and that worked
29:33a lot of the time
29:37i know my husband isn't perfect but he always tried to be the best dad
29:43he could be despite his condition
29:49i can't imagine how difficult that must have been for you
29:55it is surprising what you learn to live with when you love someone
30:04i spent my entire life taking care of jed
30:12he's been my world my everything i don't know what i'm gonna do when
30:18he's
30:22you are always welcome to stay with us at the crossing
30:27thank you maggie i appreciate that
30:42i want things to run smoothly around here too i know i need to make a change
30:47so we understand each other yes but if it's all right i'd like this to stay
30:52between us i don't want the other firefighters
30:53catching wind of it no problem
31:04how long have you been sitting there not long
31:09i was just remembering when we all used to sleep in that old tiny tent together
31:22you were afraid of the dark wouldn't go to bed until i checked for monsters
31:29you said you'd protect me
31:34i tried
31:37but you didn't take the pills
31:41we needed you
31:45i needed you and you weren't there for us
31:51the medication it was so strong back then
31:56it had a lot of side effects
32:01it just left me feeling numb
32:05just disconnected from the world
32:09and from you kids
32:13how can i be a good father if i was on them
32:18you spent my childhood walking on eggshells dad
32:21i know i know i'm sorry cal i wish things could have been different
32:28i thought i made the right choice
32:33that what i was doing was best for my family
32:39and maybe i was wrong
32:43maybe you would have been better off without me
32:53you know
32:56i don't think i've ever understood
33:01to right now
33:05that the monster you were always so afraid of
33:12was me
33:16i guess i wasn't the only one running from monsters was i dad
33:20it's a hard thing to live your whole life being just so
33:28scared of losing yourself
33:33but you end up driving people that you love away
33:38believing love is like a tiger on a landmine
33:46you're scared but want to save it at the same time
33:51it's the age of believing i'm so so sorry
33:59i didn't understand
34:15what smells so good your father's favorite
34:18uh roast beef and mashed potatoes
