Transcript
00:01In weather, record-breaking hurricane-course winds are hitting us early in the season this year.
00:07We're looking at sustained gusts of over 97 miles an hour.
00:30We should head over to Davis. She's got a basement.
01:00Dancer?
01:06Dancer!
01:09Dancer!
01:18Dancer!
01:23Lord, I need a little help right now.
01:25I got him!
01:30The camera is south. There is a background in the valley. This may be the storm of the century.
01:38Reports of tornadoes touching dams, where it's still heading our way.
01:41If you can hear this, take shelter immediately. The time for evacuation is over.
01:46He's like, we'll be here on that.
01:49Um, I'm gonna...
01:54Is that me?
01:55All you guys need to...
02:02I'm calling a troll.
02:06I think it's about time for you and me to, uh, get the hay.
02:10Seriously?
02:12Yeah.
02:13No, what I remember, I remember being here for one of your birthday parties.
02:21You know what? I...
02:24I also remember running into you at the, uh, the picnic.
02:28Yeah, about five years ago now.
02:30All right.
02:32All right.
02:34Everybody ready?
02:35Ready.
02:36Set.
02:37Go!
02:38Inside.
02:39Outside!
02:40Inside!
02:41Inside!
02:42Inside!
02:43Inside!

02:57Go!
02:58Go!
03:00Yeah!
03:01I've enjoyed losing that rice!
03:07I'm just gonna go out on a limb here, but I think this would be really fun to do
03:12again next week.
03:14The fair's not gonna be back until the end of the month.
03:19No, I know.
03:20Not the fair.
03:23No, I just meant coffee or a movie or something.
03:26I'll get the tickets, you get the popcorn.
03:31Uh, I don't think so.
03:38Lauren, look, I did you a favor, believe me.
03:41You were a schoolteacher, and people would have talked, I promise.
03:47They talked anyway.
03:48No, but the stories would have been much different.
03:51Yeah, but I would not have cared.
03:56I'm sorry.
04:14Lauren, I'm so sorry.
04:22This is my house.
04:25This is where I grew up.
04:26Like, all of my memories are here.
04:28Lauren, a lot of this stuff isn't ruined.
04:31You know, you just dry it out, get the water off of it, the mold sets in.
04:36I guess.
04:38You guess?
04:40No, things are just things, Lauren.
04:44No, but they were my things, though.
04:46Right, but they weren't you.
04:48They weren't the answer, they weren't your parents.
04:53I know, you're right.
04:55When I was a little girl, I would sit there, and I'd watch my parents fix everything.
05:01And then I grew up, and I learned how to do the same.
05:03My dad and I built that barn that kept us safe last night.
05:07And I have watched hours and hours of home rental shows.
05:14I'm going to rebuild this house myself.
05:18Yeah?
05:19Yes.
05:20I know I can do it.
05:23So, Lauren, what are you going to do next?
05:28First, I'm going to stop feeling sorry for myself.
05:32I know there are plenty of folks out there who are way worse off than I am.
05:36I was actually thinking about that earlier this morning.
05:40I thought about maybe going into town, checking everybody, check the damage.
05:47Well, let's go do that.
05:50Yeah.
05:52All right.
05:56All right, why don't we throw on a change of clothes?
05:58Yeah, okay.
05:59What do I do?
06:05Colin, I'm sorry about last night.
06:07What about?
06:08It's bringing up the past.
06:11I shouldn't have done that.
06:13No, I'm sorry for that day at the fair.
06:15Thank you, but you are allowed to date whoever you want.
06:20Believe me, you did dodge a bullet with me.
06:23Okay?
06:24Being single is kind of my lot in life, I guess.
06:26But what about you?
06:29Anyone you're seeing?
06:31Uh, yeah, my boyfriend, Dane.
06:34Well, he's not a fiancé, actually.
06:36Well, kind of.
06:38Kind of?
06:40What's a kind of fiancé?
06:43What's this?
06:44Frida?
06:48Colin?
06:48Lauren?
06:49Hey, Frida.
06:50How are you and Hector doing?
06:51We're good.
06:52Can't say as much for Mayor Wallace.
06:54Did you hear?
06:55No.
06:56What happened?
06:57Heart attack.
06:58He was checking on some people and a tree fell.
07:01Landed on the hood of his car, just like that.
07:04He didn't make it.
07:05There's never been a storm like this recorded in the county's history.
07:09We're all praying that there aren't any more casualties.
07:12I can't believe this.
07:13Um, thank you so much, Frida.
07:18Drive safe.
07:19You too, Colin.
07:20Rolls are in bad shape.
07:21Hey, Sutter.
07:30It's Colin.
07:31Yeah, no, how are you?
07:32It looked pretty bad up there last night.
07:34Yeah, no, uh, not a scratch.
07:36I'm relieved.
07:36How's Colin?
07:37Mom, not a scratch.
07:39His words.
07:39He's fine.
07:40I, um, I spent the night at Lauren Christensen's barn.
07:44Excuse me?
07:47You want to explain?
07:48I'm fine.
07:49But, um, her house was destroyed in the storm.
07:57That's awful.
07:58Oh, and good of you to take care of her.
08:00Oh, no.
08:00She's actually the one who took care of me.
08:02She actually got me in out of the storm.
08:05Kept me dry.
08:07How did you end up at her place?
08:09I mean, I know you got that property up there next to hers, but...
08:11Hey, uh, Sutter, listen.
08:13I gotta go.
08:14This is the only line that we have.
08:16Okay, uh, just tell me one thing.
08:18She's still as good looking as I remember?
08:22Better.
08:23You'd be good to her, Colin.
08:26Yeah, no, Mom, I love her.
08:28I already did.
08:29Later.
08:30See ya.
08:33So, how did the Shumaks make out?
08:35The road to their barn washed out completely, but they got their animals out early, so...
08:41They did.
08:44That's some good news, I guess.
08:47Hey, going back to what I said earlier about helping you rebuild your house,
08:53be no trouble.
08:54It's okay, I can figure it out.
08:57It's not like I think that you need a man's help or anything like that.
09:00It's just, you know what I do for a living, right?
09:03Yes, you make furniture, and...
09:05I'm a carpenter.
09:06Pretty good carpenter, actually.
09:08And so helping you with your house would be no problem.
09:11That's a really nice offer, but no thank you.
09:14The phone's free, so I'm going to call my fiancé.
09:18Okay.
09:23You have Dane?
09:30Hey, it's me.
09:32Lauren, my assistant's been trying you for hours.
09:34Are you okay?
09:35Yes, I'm fine.
09:37Um, but my entire house was destroyed.
09:41But, and, and sorry, I would have called earlier, but all of the power's out.
09:45All the phone lines are down.
09:50Your house was destroyed?
09:52But my Lauren's okay.
09:54I'm fine.
09:55I promise.
09:55You should move into my Manhattan condo while I'm still closing this deal.
09:59Then when I'm done, I'll meet you there.
10:00You want me to leave at a time like this?
10:03Dane, I, I can't do that.
10:04The community needs every single one of us here right now.
10:08Look, I just want you to be safe.
10:12That's, that's sweet.
10:13But I'm going to stay here, and I also want to rebuild my family home myself.
10:21Listen, give me a couple hours.
10:23I'm going to talk to my assistant.
10:24He's going to find you the best crew in the tri-state area.
10:27They'll be there this afternoon to start construction.
10:29A crew?
10:30No, no, no, no, no, it's way too early for any of that.
10:33You're going to supervise, of course.
10:36Dane Richards, you have zero listening skills.
10:39My grandparents built that family home, and I'm going to do the same.
10:43Lauren, Lauren, I'm just trying to help.
10:45You're a school teacher.
10:46You can't build a house by yourself.
10:47I know it takes a team to rebuild a home, but that team starts with me.
10:56Hey, I need you in here.
10:58Excuse me?
11:01Sorry, I was rude.
11:03And that is why we need to get people out there now, starting the cleanup efforts.
11:07This is crazy.
11:09The council has made a list of places to start.
11:12Nathan.
11:12I know you're doing your best with Mayor Wallace, gone and all, but we need to organize
11:22search parties to go out there and find the people who need help.
11:28I just spoke with the people from FEMA less than an hour ago.
11:32They need the roads clear so that they can deliver the relief supplies.
11:35Food, water, medicine.
11:37Right.
11:37Search and rescue is the main priority right now.
11:40You said to yourself that FEMA was not going to be here for several days.
11:44This is not about you, Colin.
11:46Please sit down.
11:47Nathan, given the circumstances, I feel like we just set aside our differences.
11:51Now here, we look out for each other.
11:54That's what we do.
11:57Okay, so there could be people out there without clean water, without power.
12:00They could be injured.
12:01They could be sick.
12:02We have got to have search parties to get out there and find those people.
12:06Sure.
12:07Our fire department is out there right now, doing exactly just that.
12:12Great.
12:13Well, we can help them.
12:14How many firefighters are there?
12:15We have five well-trained professionals.
12:19Five.
12:20Nathan, that's a lot of ground to cover.
12:23And we should split those five up.
12:25And each one of those firefighters can be in charge of a small search party of volunteers.
12:28We could search the entire town in a day, a day and a half at max.
12:32So we'd have five search parties?
12:35Five.
12:36Fine.
12:37The council will radio out to the professionals.
12:40And if the firefighters agree, the council will allow it.
12:53Paige.
12:53Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
13:00I've been looking everywhere for you.
13:02Oh, we tried to get to you.
13:04I'm so glad you two made it through the storm okay.
13:07Oh, we're fine.
13:08We're fine.
13:09Hey, how are you and Mark?
13:10Oh, we just lost the porch and the shed.
13:14How about your place?
13:16Not as bad as some.
13:18You know, my heart goes out to Carolina Santos.
13:20Oh, mine too.
13:23Hey, was that Colin I saw you waving at just now?
13:28Oh, yeah.
13:28Yeah, he's helping out with one of the search and rescue teams.
13:31Yeah, I heard he was helping, but...
13:34Why are you waving at each other?
13:36You hate him.
13:37No, I don't hate him.
13:39Oh, really?
13:39I have heard you say the actual words.
13:42I hate Colin Tron.
13:44I'm just worried about him.
13:47You know, Paige, I'm worried about everybody.
13:49It's dangerous out there.
13:51There are live power lines down.
13:52There are complete road closures.
13:54Like...
13:55So when exactly did the hate stop?
13:59Well, last night, we spent the night together in the barn and...
14:03Laura!
14:05Tell me everything.
14:07No, nothing happens.
14:09No, we...
14:10We just got to know each other a little better, that's all.
14:14Okay, let's help with the potluck.
14:17And you are telling me every detail.
14:20Come on.
14:20Nothing.
14:38Useless technology.
14:42Help!
14:44Help me!
14:45Anybody?
14:48Help me!
14:56Mr. Rodriguez, are you in there?
14:58Yes!
14:59I'm here!
15:01I got knocked off my wheelchair!
15:05My leg is stuck!
15:07Stay calm.
15:08Yeah, we have the rescue team here.
15:10We're hearing this to bring and we'll get you out.
15:15I miss you!
15:18I've been stuck here for hours!
15:22All right, we're here now.
15:23Okay, we'll have you out shortly.
15:24Mm.
15:27Mm.
15:35So, did you hear?
15:39What, the chicken's a little dry, but the mac and cheese is to die for?
15:43Nope.
15:43Thank you so much.
15:45Your boyfriend's a hero.
15:46Oh, yeah?
15:49Dane's in Australia.
15:50What could he have done?
15:51No.
15:52You're a new boyfriend.
15:55I'm an engaged woman.
15:57So, you officially accepted Dane's proposal then?
16:02Not exactly.
16:03See?
16:04I love Dane.
16:06I have no interest in Colin except his friends, and besides, he made it very clear in the past
16:13that he was never interested either.
16:17Wait, Hero?
16:19He saved Mr. Rodriguez.
16:22Hugo fell out of his wheelchair and spent the entire storm on the floor of his bedroom.
16:26He was lucky that Colin found him.
16:30Wait, is he going to be okay?
16:32Yeah.
16:33Joel, he's a firefighter, said Colin cleared the debris and carried Hugo out to the team.
16:40Joel said, if they hadn't split up like Colin suggested, they wouldn't have got to Hugo for a few more days.
16:48And who knows what would have happened by then?
16:56We have got ourselves a real, live hero.
17:02Well, if you're not interested, maybe I should ask him out.
17:05I think you should stop talking and eat some chicken.
17:08I hear it's wrong.
17:09I hear it's wrong.
17:39How bad was it out there?
17:52Ah.
17:54More tough than bad.
17:57Why do I feel like you chose the areas that were hardest hit to search?
18:02I guess I should have thought that one through a little bit more.
18:07You must be exhausted.
18:09Compared to what we did.
18:11Answering phones, ordering a few supplies.
18:15Oh, come on.
18:16I saw well-fed children in clean clothes that looked very happy.
18:20I know that was all you're doing.
18:23So, tell me about this fiancée.
18:27Dane?
18:28Hmm.
18:28Um, Dane is an architect.
18:33He's actually in Australia right now.
18:35He's working on a big project and, um, and then he'll be back here.
18:38Is he a good man?
18:45Yes.
18:46Yes.
18:47He's very good to me.
18:51But?
18:53But.
18:53Well, when you're with the person you're supposed to marry, you have this gut feeling, right?
19:01Right.
19:03Unless he isn't.
19:04Oh, no, no, no.
19:09It's okay.
19:09Don't be silly.
19:11You're freezing.
19:13Just take it.
19:16You're welcome.
19:17You should run for mayor.
19:20Because I gave you my jacket?
19:22No.
19:23Although I would vote for that guy.
19:25The way you corralled the search and rescue team.
19:30And how you helped Mr. Rodriguez, it's...
19:33Listen, Joel saved Mr. Rodriguez.
19:35Okay?
19:36I just moved some things out of the way.
19:39That's all.
19:40I'm not so sure that Nathan is the person for that.
19:45You should think about it.
19:46Yeah.
19:47I think I'll, uh, leave running this town to better men.
19:52Who said that?
19:53You send whoever said that my way, and I'll give them a good talking to.
19:57Oh, really?
19:58Mm-hmm.
19:58What would you say?
20:00In under 72 hours, a man who thought I hated him...
20:04Hey, you did hate me.
20:07Shh, I'm talking.
20:09Okay.
20:09This man saved my dog, helped scores of people,
20:15and offered to rebuild my family house.
20:18Which you refused.
20:20Which I appreciated.
20:22It's the intent that matters.
20:25Okay.
20:26And he offered me this lovely jacket because he thought I was cold.
20:32You know what?
20:33If you're not cold, I'd be more than happy to take this jacket back.
20:37That's fine.
20:41Hey, Dane.
20:42My beautiful Lauren.
20:43How's everything flood-wise this morning?
20:44It was a beautiful day down under.
20:46Yeah, we're doing okay.
20:48Things are still a little bit of a disaster, but we're all pulling through.
20:52That's my girl.
20:54So, uh, when are you getting here?
20:56Coming in?
20:56Sorry?
20:57Yeah, yeah.
20:58When is your project wrapping up so you can come help?
21:00Help?
21:00Happy to help.
21:01Just give me the number.
21:02I'll wire you the cash.
21:04Cash?
21:05No, no, no, no.
21:06Dane, this is not about cash, okay?
21:08I don't need money.
21:09Dane, I need you here.
21:11Dane, I need you here.
21:25Dancer, come on.
21:30Stand on the phone, will you?
21:33You want to help Tony with the number?
21:35All right.
21:35Excuse me.
21:37Hello.
21:37Hi.
21:38What's going on here?
21:39Looks like we're rebuilding somebody's home.
21:42Yes, this is my house.
21:44Ah, you must be Lauren Richards.
21:49It's Lauren Christensen.
21:52Did a man named Dane put you up to this?
21:55Mr. Richards hired us, yes.
21:57I need everybody off of my property right now.
22:01Excuse me, miss?
22:06You've Dane.
22:07Dane, what is going on on my property right now?
22:10Lauren, guess what?
22:11I got my assistant to get a great crew.
22:13They're going to be there any minute now.
22:14Oh, yeah, they're all working here right now.
22:16Great.
22:17They said they'd be fast.
22:18No, Dane, I told you I wanted to rebuild my family home myself.
22:23But I just wanted to support.
22:26Dane, you are a great guy.
22:29You really are.
22:30You have treated me like gold.
22:32But there is one thing that has become crystal clear to me,
22:35and that is that you have never treated me like an equal.
22:39You know, all my thoughts, all my feelings have been completely second to yours.
22:43What?
22:43Lauren, I...
22:45Like you never listened.
22:46That time that I told you I didn't want to go to London.
22:49Or that I didn't need that new car.
22:51Or that I will never give up being a teacher.
22:58Dane, I can't do this anymore.
22:59I can't marry you.
23:10Lauren?
23:12Lauren?
23:12Lauren?
23:29In my moment of weakness, I need something to free, this heaviness on my heart that I can't shake.
23:50I still carry it with me, feeling like I'm unworthy.
24:03And the thing I need most is the hardest to take.
24:08Where the shadows grow tall, and your back's up against the wall.
24:23In this moment, it's clear.
24:28In the darkest of times, love begins here.
24:34You know, you really should get that dog a leash.
24:39Yeah, well, add it to the list.
24:43Holy cow.
24:44Lauren, how did you build this this fast?
24:48Dane made a few calls.
24:50That's a good call.
24:51You think?
24:52Yeah.
24:53Absolutely.
24:54I've heard you go on about a dozen times about building this yourself.
24:56So it's clearly important to you.
24:58Wow.
24:59I agree.
25:01Hey, listen.
25:02Also, I need to apologize about last night.
25:04You know, we almost...
25:05We almost, but we didn't.
25:06Right.
25:07Right?
25:08That's the important thing.
25:09Yeah, because, you know, emotions were high.
25:10I don't know.
25:11I guess that just...
25:13Plus, who would have thought?
25:14Sanctuary, at night, would be that...
25:17I don't know.
25:18I don't know.
25:19I don't know.
25:20I don't know.
25:21I don't know.
25:22I guess that just...
25:23Plus, who would have thought?
25:24Sanctuary, at night, would be that...
25:30Nice, shall we say.
25:33Yeah.
25:34And the stained glass windows were really nice, as well.
25:39It won't happen again.
25:41I bet.
25:43Good call.
25:45So, what's next for you and this house, Miss Lauren?
25:51This house?
25:52Well, um, actually, I was hoping to recruit a nice, strong person to help me lift some heavy furniture.
25:59I guess that's me.

38:47Um, why aren't you answering your door?
38:50Wait, you're at my place?
38:52Wait, you're not at your place?
38:54No, no.
38:54I'm at your place.
38:56What are you doing there?
38:58I, uh, I wasn't worried about you.
39:02Yeah, you started coming.
39:05Check on you.
39:06What are you doing at my place?
39:08I got scared.
39:10Uh, yeah, I just, I was scared staying in the creepy barn by myself.
39:13You said it wasn't creepy.
39:14No, I know, but it turns out it is.
39:17Oh.
39:19You're at my place, I'm at your place.
39:23Yeah, that's pretty funny.
39:24Why don't you just, why don't you just crash at my place tonight, and I'll stay here.
39:31Yeah, no, that, um, that sounds great.
39:35Very reasonable.
39:36Yeah.
39:36Um, the, um, the key to the front door is there on the window seal.
39:42Well, we'll all have a big laugh about this tomorrow, Lauren.
39:46I know.
39:48Okay, goodnight, Colin.
39:50It's my sleep, Lauren.
39:50Wow.
40:10Wow.
40:11I remember this.
40:41Who's got the on-site?
40:46You can't do this.
41:08Dancer?
41:11Is this you, buddy?
41:19What are you doing, Colin?
41:21Sleeping in a pink frilly bed.
41:23That's what you're doing.
41:41Lauren?
41:43What are you doing here?
41:45I came here to talk to you.
41:47Okay.
41:49Is everything all right?
41:51No, actually, it's not.
41:53Okay.
41:55I...
41:57I really like you, Colin.
41:59I really like you.
42:01And actually, I came to apologize to you, too, for hating you all of those years after that stupid day at the picnic.
42:11Because I was just embarrassed.
42:13And I was really insecure.
42:15And I spent years trying to avoid you thinking that you were this horrible person, even though you're not at all.
42:21I was a horrible person.
42:25You're not a horrible person, Colin.
42:29You are smart.
42:31Right?
42:32You're kind.
42:33You're a leader.
42:35And, okay.
42:36I saw the furniture in your house.
42:38Wow.
42:39Talk about talented.
42:41And you listen to me.
42:44You care about what I have to say.
42:48You care about other people, Colin.
42:50Do you know how rare that is?
42:55I like you.
42:57And if I'm being honest, I think you like me, too.
43:03Lauren, you have a fiance.
43:06I mean, I saw this picture's up in your bedroom.
43:09Your barn room.
43:11Whatever.
43:12You two seem incredibly happy together.
43:15I mean, you deserve him.
43:17All right?
43:18Because I was awful.
43:19No, you were just pushing me away like you're doing right now.
43:23Lauren, how could I not like you?
43:26Tell me.
43:28You're at the top of the class.
43:31The best catch.
43:33The most beautiful woman in town.
43:35You dedicate your whole life to helping children.
43:39You're smart.
43:40You're talented.
43:41You're an absolute boss with a nail gun.
43:46You give back to other people.
43:47And you deserve the best.
43:50And, Lauren, that's not me.
43:53History has shown that it's not me.
43:56You deserve Dane.
43:57I broke up with Dane.
44:01When?
44:03That day that he brought the crew over and I asked him not to.
44:08Why did you do that, Lauren?
44:10My gut.
44:12And because he never listened to me.
44:15Why don't you say something sooner?
44:17Because I was so tired of relationships, Colin.
44:23You know?
44:24And then there's this incredible guy standing right in front of me.
44:28And...
44:31And I couldn't help but fall for him.
44:33Colin.
44:41Colin...
44:45I think I'm falling in love with you.
44:47I...
44:48I can't do this.
44:49I'm sorry.
44:50I thought I could.
44:51But I can't.
44:53I...
44:55I...
44:56I can't do this.
45:00I'm sorry.
45:01I thought I could.
45:02But I can't.
45:22I...
45:23Don't wanna leave without seeing you.
45:31I can't bear to look in your eyes.
45:37All I see is the road that I didn't choose.
45:45In another lifetime.
45:48In some forgotten dream.
45:51In another lifetime.
45:55Maybe it was meant to be.
46:05In another lifetime.
46:12Sometimes I wonder where I'd end up.
46:18If I follow this dark angel.
46:25Into the unknown years we've planned.
46:31Living ghosts of a life that could have been.
46:42Dancer?
46:44What are you doing here, buddy?
46:46Is Lorne here?
46:49Lorne!
46:52You're supposed to run off again.
46:58What do you need?
46:59Yeah, um...
47:00Dancer's actually here at my place.
47:02Sorry about that.
47:03No, no, it's...
47:04It's fine.
47:05You're just supposed to...
47:06Run off again.
47:07Um...
47:09Listen, if you want, I could, um...
47:12You know, bring him back to your place.
47:14Could you drop him at my friend Paige's?
47:17Paige's book?
47:18Yeah.
47:19Yeah.
47:20That's...
47:21That's fine.
47:24Um...
47:25Lorne, listen...
47:27Paige!
47:28Hey!
47:29Dancer!
47:30You've been on your adventures again!
47:31Yes, yes.
47:32I'll keep him until Lorne gets back from teaching.
47:33Thanks.
47:35Paige, could you tell Lorne something for me?
47:37Tell Lorne what?
47:38Could you tell Lorne just to get this dog a leash?
47:51Thanks.
47:52Thanks.
48:22Answer.
48:23I don't have time.
48:24Oh, you're interrupting.
48:25No.
48:26Just thought you were a dog, though.
48:27Alright.
48:28What's going on?
48:29You know, calling for a smart guy, you can be pretty dumb sometimes.
48:35Man, you can't blame your dad for everything.
48:40No.
48:41What's going on?
48:42You know, calling for a smart guy, you can be pretty dumb sometimes.
48:48Man, you can't blame your dad for everything.
48:52I can blame him for a lot.
48:54Come on.
48:55Just talk to her, okay?
48:57Tell her how you feel.
48:58She doesn't want to talk to me.
49:00She doesn't want to see me.
49:02That ship has sailed, my friend.
49:05Well, that's not necessarily true.
49:07What do you mean?
49:09Building her house.
49:11When you're together, there's like a...
49:13There's a vibe.
49:15There's a vibe?
49:16Yeah, Logan High School, a vibe.
49:18Seriously.
49:19It's just my gut, but I think there's still a chance, man.
49:22You don't understand, Ciro.
49:25You won't ever understand.
49:27No, Colin.
49:28You don't understand.
49:31What are you doing?
49:34Big guts.
49:36Sutter!
49:37Hey, buddy.
49:38Uh, I...
49:39Hey, listen.
49:40Not your turn to talk.
49:41We've known Lauren's family for what?
49:4340, 50 years?
49:45I know, Sutter.
49:46I know.
49:47I'm not doing it.
49:48Listen, listen.
49:49You were a teenager when we moved back here from Georgia.
49:51And since then, there's only been one woman.
49:54Only one.
49:56Lauren.
49:57The problem is, you think you're not good enough.
50:00But it's not true.
50:02Sutter, what Dad did was...
50:04Listen, shut up.
50:05I'm not talking about Dad.
50:06I'm talking about you.
50:07You're a good man.
50:09You always have been.
50:12I don't need to tell you what Mom and Dad went through when they were together.
50:15Listen, hold on.
50:16Mom?
50:17Huh.
50:18She talks more about the good years than the bad years.
50:22With what happened to Mom, I promised her I would never hurt somebody like Dad hurt her.
50:27And you won't.
50:28You won't.
50:29You won't.
50:30You are not dead.
50:34Tell me about Lauren.
50:35What?
50:36Well, I can't stop thinking about her, if that's what you mean.
50:40I, uh, I, I just want to be with her.
50:47All the time.
50:49I mean, seeing, seeing that girl accomplish something, it's something that behold, she
50:55gets this smile on her face.
50:57You know, it's...
50:59Sutter, I can't stop thinking about her.
51:03Well, there she is, teaching a bunch of third graders.
51:06And there's a man on his way to maybe take her away from me forever.
51:10Do you really love her?
51:12All my heart.
51:13Yeah.
51:14Then don't let Dad's behavior stop you from maybe being with her forever.
51:20Can I show you something?
51:23I'll put it up.
51:24I made that.
51:25You made this?
51:26Why are you surprised?
51:27It's what I do.
51:28Wow.
51:29Think she'll like it?
51:30Yeah.
51:31Think it'll fit?
51:36You don't know if you don't try.
51:38You're right.
51:39Nice job.
51:45How's my Lauren?
51:46Dane, what are you doing here?
51:48I came to apologize.
51:50I want to make this work.
51:52Me and you.
51:53Dane, we talked about this.
51:55You were right.
51:57I should have listened to you.
51:58I should never have sent those guys to build your house for you, or sent you that furniture,
52:03that Italian marble tile.
52:04It's just my way of taking care of you.
52:07And yet you took this long to get here.
52:10You chose your job, Dane.
52:13Look.
52:14Look, I'm here now.
52:15I want to make this work.
52:17I am listening.
52:19But it's so much more than that.
52:22You know, after the storm hit, I realized what's important to me.
52:29And I also realized what's important to you.
52:33And those two things just aren't the same.
52:36I love you.
52:40I love you.
52:41And I loved you.
52:43But your life is all condos, right?
52:47And big city living.
52:48And I'm all little kids.
52:50We can make this place work.
52:51We're going to get a place here.
52:53We're going to buy a home.
52:55And you're going to design it.
52:56And it's going to be fantastic.
52:58I already have a house here.
52:59I have a home, actually.
53:01A home that I built myself.
53:07I'm sorry, Dane.
53:10No, Lauren.
53:11I'm sorry.
53:31I'm sorry.
53:32I'm sorry for pushing you away five years ago.
53:34Lauren, you're the most amazing woman I've ever met.
53:39Ever since I was a kid, I was always my best when I was with you.
53:46And I'm a better man when I am with you, Lauren.
53:47I've got to spend the rest of my life with you.
53:48I made you something.
53:49Lauren Christensen?
