Jack: Brie?
Brie: Jack.
Jack: Hey.
Brie: Please come. I need you.
Jack: Hm? You okay? Brie? What's goin' on? Brie!
----------
Jack: Hey, hey, Brie, I'm here. Brie, what happened? You cut yourself?
Brie: It hurts.
Jack: Okay. Okay. Hey. I'm gonna get you to the clinic, all right?
Mel: Jack?
Jack: Brie's hurt. Meet me at the clinic.
Mel: I'm on my way.
Jack: All right, Mel's gonna take care of you. Okay, just put your hand around my neck. Yeah, come on. I got you. Okay. It's okay. I got you.

Vernon's practice: exam room
Mel: Okay... So I'm gonna do an ultrasound now, okay? This is gonna be a little bit cold.
Brie: Okay.
Mel: Sorry.
Brie: Mm.
Mel: Okay... Sorry... Any pain in your shoulders or back?
Brie: No.
Mel: Okay.
Brie: What's wrong with me?
Mel: Um, well, I still need to do some blood work, but, um, I believe you had a miscarriage. I'm sorry... Here.
Brie: Could Jack come in?
Mel: Yeah, of course. I'll go get him... Hey, Jack. Do you wanna come?
Jack: Hey, I'm here... Do you know what's wrong?
Mel: She had a miscarriage... You know what? I have some more tissues in the kitchen. I'll be right back. Okay?
Jack: Oh, hey... Hey, everything's gonna be okay. Okay?
Brie: Yeah.
----------
Vernon's practice: kitchen
Vernon: Morning.
Mel: Morning.
Vernon: How is Brie?
Mel: I just finished giving her an exam. She had a miscarriage.
Vernon: Oh, God.
Mel: Yeah.
Vernon: How's she holding up?
Mel: Physically, she's fine, but I'm gonna recommend that she see a therapist.
Vernon: Good plan.
Mel: I was thinking that when Hope gets back, she might wanna talk to somebody.
Vernon: Yeah. She's definitely not talking to me. Oy... I mean, she barely said a word when I called to tell her about Lilly.
Mel: She's probably just in shock.
Vernon: No. She was angry that I didn't tell her about Lilly's cancer.
Mel: Well, I'm sure that once you guys get a chance to sit down together that she'll understand.
Vernon: From your lips to God's ears.
Mel: Will she make it in time for the funeral today?
Vernon: Yeah, she's flying into Sacramento, renting a car. It'll be tight, but she'll make it.
Mel: Yeah. So how is your vision doing under all this stress?
Vernon: Pretty well.
Mel: So your first anti-VEGF treatment went well?
Vernon: If you enjoy having needles stuck into your eyeballs, then yes.
Mel: I would not.
Vernon: Me neither, but... I don't have much of an option, you know?
Mel: If you wanna go home and get some rest, I can manage here.
Vernon: Thanks, but after I look in on Brie, I wanna drive out to the farm and check in on Tara.
Mel: Well, um, give her my love.
Vernon: I will. I'll see you at the funeral.
Mel: Yeah.
----------
Outside Jack's bar
Ricky: Hey, Preacher. Do you know how many people are coming to Lilly's reception? Jack wanted flutes for the toast.
Preacher: Well, Tara said family and close friends, so probably 15, 20 people.
Ricky: Okay, cool.
Preacher: All right.
Ricky: Oh, hey, Connie.
Connie: Ricky.
Ricky: Okay.
Connie: We got a problem... Huh.
Preacher: Sorry, uh, what am I looking at?
Connie: Scroll left.
Preacher: Vince.
Connie: Uh-huh.
Preacher: Where'd you take these?
Connie: Clear River, this morning. Had to pick up a flower arrangement for Lilly. When I saw him, I grabbed my phone. Why do you think he's here?
Preacher: Okay, you, uh, remember Sally? Paige's friend who brought Christopher back to Virgin River?
Connie: Yeah, I remember her.
Preacher: She wants to meet in person.
Connie: Do you think her wanting to see you is connected to Vince?
Preacher: Yeah, now I do. And the fact that she's calling me instead of Paige, it worries me.
Connie: Why's that?
Preacher: Because it tells me something's not right with Paige... Thanks.
----------
Lilly's farm: Tara's room
Tara: Come in.
Vernon: Hey.
Tara: Hi.
Vernon: I brought you some, uh, blueberry muffins from the bakery truck.
Tara: Thanks.
Vernon: So, I hear you haven't been up much, huh?
Tara: I'm tired.
Vernon: Yeah, it's normal. Grief drains our energy. And your sister said you're not sure if you're gonna speak at the funeral?
Tara: What's the point?
Vernon: I just... I don't want you to have any regrets down the road.
Tara: It's too hard.
Vernon: Yeah, the pain of losing someone you love is overwhelming. The challenge is to keep that pain from crushing you.
Tara: That's how I feel.
Vernon: Listen to me. I've known you since... Since you were knee-high to a grasshopper. And you were a scrappy little kid. You're just as tough now.
Tara: I don't know what to do.
Vernon: Start by taking a few deep breaths... Yeah... Your friends and your family, they wanna be there for you. Let them.
Tara: I'll try.
Vernon: Just remember, your mother loved you with all her heart. She would not want you to suffer.

Brie's apartment
Jack: I'm not leaving you alone.
Mel: Jack, you can go. I'll stay with her.
Brie: No, you're both going to the funeral. I'm fine. I just wanna sleep.
Jack: What if you need something?
Brie: I will text you... Mel, please tell Jack I don't need a babysitter.
Mel: Look, if she's comfortable being alone, it's totally fine.
Brie: Thank you, Mel.
Jack: Okay. Mel, would you mind asking Brie if there's anything she'd like to eat or drink?
Brie: Um... I will take a ginger ale. Thank you.
Jack: All right, be right back.
Brie: I don't understand what's wrong with me.
Mel: What you're feeling is completely normal.
Brie: I just can't believe this has happened after everything.
Mel: You know... When my husband and I were trying to get pregnant, I had multiple miscarriages.
Brie: Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to...
Mel: No, it's okay. Um, I was just telling you because... I want you to know you're not alone. I know what you're going through.
Brie: I didn't even know I was pregnant.
Mel: Oh, my God, honey. I'm so sorry... That's a lot to take in all at once.
Brie: Just feels like this giant wave has crashed over me. Like it's pushing me down.
Mel: You're strong. You're gonna get back up.
Brie: What if I can't?
Mel: Jack and I are here. Okay? We're gonna help you get through this.
Brie: Mm. I'm so tired.
Mel: Okay. Try to get some sleep. And, um, if you need anything at all, just call me, okay?
Brie: Yeah... Hey, Mel?
Mel: Yeah?
Brie: Thanks for everything.
Mel: You're welcome.
----------
Jack's bar
Mel: Hey.
Jack: I'm thinking of having Preacher make her some chicken noodle soup.
Mel: Oh. She's resting now, so I wouldn't push her to eat.
Jack: Got it.
Mel: Yeah.
Jack: So how are you... Doing with Lilly?
Mel: Oh. I'm... I'm devastated.
Jack: Yeah. I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that she's gone.
Mel: I just... I feel so bad for Tara. You know, I know what it's like to lose your mother.
Jack: I can't even imagine. Preach and I have been sending food out to the farm. It's not much, but I didn't know what else to do.
Mel: No, that's really sweet of you guys. I'm sure she appreciates it.
Jack: Yeah.
Mel: Um, I should go get ready.
Jack: Uh, Mel. Okay. What are we... Come on, what are we doing here?
Mel: What do you mean?
Jack: I mean you shutting me out.
Mel: I'm... Can we talk in your office?
----------
Jack's bar: office
Mel: Jack, I'm not trying to shut you out.
Jack: Okay, avoiding me for the past three days, that's status quo?
Mel: No, I'm... I told you, I just need time to think.
Jack: About what?
Mel: The night I came back from LA, you said all the right things, but the next morning, I just felt like maybe you were telling me what I wanted to hear.
Jack: No, come on. I wasn't... I meant what I said. Look, breaking things off with you was a huge mistake. Yeah, I'm worried about supporting two families, but my feelings for you outweigh everything else.
Mel: Okay, say we get back together. Right? I'm worried that down the road, when you are exhausted from burning the candle at both ends, you'll end up resentful.
Jack: That won't happen.
Mel: How do you know that?
Jack: Because I know myself.
Mel: You think you know yourself now, but when the twins come, you're gonna change. Ask anybody who's ever had a child.
Jack: I don't care what anybody else says. I'm telling you how I feel. Isn't that what you asked me to do? How am I supposed to prove anything to you if you don't give me another chance?
Mel: I don't know. You're right.
Jack: Exactly... Come on. We'll just start small. I'll drive you to the church.
Mel: You don't have to do that.
Jack: Today is gonna be tough for everyone. Might be nice to have someone to lean on.

Jack's bar / Sergeant Gomez's office
Ricky: Hello?
Sergeant Gomez: Staff Sergeant Gomez here.
Ricky: Hello, sir.
Sergeant Gomez: I have your ASVAB results.
Ricky: So, uh, how'd I do?
Sergeant Gomez: Scored a 97, which puts you in the top tier of recruits.
Ricky: Wow.
Sergeant Gomez: You'll make an excellent marine, son.
Ricky: Thank you, sir. So that's it? It's official?
Sergeant Gomez: All that's left is for you to sign your contract and pick a recruit depot. Now, I know you were leaning towards San Diego, but I think we should at least discuss South Carolina.
----------
Mel's cabin
Mel: Okay, so the wire transfer came through? Yeah, um, I'll sign the documents and get them back to you tomorrow, okay? Great. Thank you again... Hey! You don't need to knock.
Jack: Hm. Kinda feels like I do.
Mel: Um, I'm just gonna need a second. Okay?
Jack: Yeah, no, take your time. We're not in a rush.
Mel: Oh, hey, um, you left some clothes in the hamper, so I washed them.
Jack: Oh, you didn't have to do that.
Mel: It's okay. I left them in a bag by the door.
Jack: Hm, thanks.
Mel: What?
Jack: You look... Stunning.
Mel: Oh.
Jack: Sorry.
Mel: No. Thanks. It's, um, it's fine. You look nice too.
Jack: I just get a "nice"? You...
Mel: There's nothing wrong with nice.
Jack: That's like saying I have a good personality.
Mel: You do have a good personality, so...
Jack: Oh, wow.
Mel: All right, fine. How about this? You look dashing, Mr. Sheridan.
Jack: Why, thank you. That's very kind of you to say.
Mel: I'm ready to go if you're ready to go.
Jack: Yeah. You might wanna grab a sweater.
Mel: Yeah, I have one.

Parking
Vernon: We cannot fathom the unbearable loss and pain you're experiencing, and we want you to know you are not alone. We cannot... We want you... We want you to know... Hope, hi. Hi. Where are you? Oh. No, look, if the rental car is not fit for the road, then just return it and... Okay, just... Just be safe. And, yeah, I'll meet you at the reception. Um... I... I love you.

Church
Christopher: My tie's choking me.
Preacher: I got it. You know, you don't have to wear it if you don't want to.
Christopher: You're wearing one.
Preacher: Yeah. Funerals can be pretty sad, so if this is too much for you, you just let me know.
Christopher: I wanna say goodbye to Lilly.
Preacher: That's a very grown-up thing for you to do.
Christopher: You don't have to be worried about me. You're the one that looks sad.
Preacher: Yeah. So, how's that feel?
Christopher: Better.
Preacher: Good... Hey, anyone ever tell you that you are an awesome kid?
Christopher: Just you. And my mom.
Preacher: Okay, let's go.
----------
Church: porch
Jack: You okay?
Mel: Yeah, I'm just, um... I'm a little overwhelmed. Um...
Jack: You want water? I got some in the truck.
Mel: Yeah, okay. Thanks.
Jack: I'll be right back. You got it.

Park
Mark: Pick up those little feet... Hey, you okay? What's going on?
Mel: My... Cramp.
Mark: Come on. We're at mile seven. Five more miles to go.
Mel: No, no, no. Wait. You go... you go ahead, and I'll catch up with you in a minute.
Mark: Take a sip... Okay. And I want you to breathe. Look at me... Take a breath. Breathe. You got this. You got this.
Mel: I need to sit down.
Mark: No, don't you sit down. You've done the hard part, okay? The rest is all downhill.
Mel: It's all downhill? You promise?
Mark: Baby, you're my warrior. Okay?
Mel: All right. So it's not all downhill.
Mark: Not all of it, but...
Mel: You're a liar.
Mark: Hey, I believe in you.
Mel: Okay.
Mark: Come on. Let's do it.
Mel: Okay.
Mark: Let's go. Come on.
Mel: Okay.

Church: porch
Jack: Mel?
Mel: Oh! Thank you.
Jack: Look, I know this must be hard with everything you've been through.
Mel: Yeah, it's just... It's just tougher than I thought it was gonna be.
Jack: Listen, at any point... You know, if you feel like it's too much, just say the word, I'll take you anywhere you wanna go.
Mel: Thanks.
----------
Church
Vernon: Good afternoon. I think most of you know I am Vernon Mullins. For close to 20 years, Lilly Anderson was a dear, dear friend of mine. You may have noticed my wife, Hope, couldn't be here, so I'm speaking for both of us when I say we extend our deepest condolences to Lilly's family. We want you to know that you're not alone. Lilly never failed to help a neighbour or... Offer a friend a shoulder to cry on, because Lilly believed that love was a gift to share with other people. She sure shared that gift with all of us.
Connie: I once read that cranky people live longer lives. If that's the case, I'm gonna outlive everyone here. It certainly seems true today. Lilly was the sweetest person I've ever met.
Lydie: She and Buck shared a love story for the ages. They were just kids when they met, but things were hard for them. Looking after the farm, trying to keep it going while raising their beautiful children. But they kept on going.
Bert: I told Lilly, I want what you and Buck have, you know, a relationship where both people give more than they get. Bless her heart, a week later, she introduces me to Shirley... Thank you, Lilly.
Jack: Uh, well... When I first moved to Virgin River, I, um, I hardly knew anyone. Some of you probably remember I was pretty hell-bent on building the bar from scratch. I had a little construction experience, but I was mostly out of my depth, and then Lilly started coming by the job site every day to check in, and suddenly, all these things I needed just started showing up. So I asked her, "Hey, Lilly, what's going on here?" And, uh, she said that... She said what I had to offer was good for the town, and, um... She wanted me to stick around... But I will always be grateful to you for helping me build a life here. And may you rest in peace knowing that your... Your memory will live on.
Vernon: Thank you, Jack... Well, if anyone else would like to speak, now would be the perfect time... All right, then. Jack and Preacher have graciously catered...
Tara: Doc, wait... On behalf of my family, I wanna thank everyone for being here. My mom was a devoted mother who always put her kids' needs ahead of her own. She loved us ferociously and was our world. So... All right. The night that she passed... And...
Mel: Hey, it's okay. It's okay. Do you want me to read it for you?
Tara: Yeah.
Mel: Okay. It's all right.
Tara: Okay.
Mel: "So the night that she passed away, I was plunged into darkness. I couldn't imagine a way out of it until a good friend of mine helped me remember my mother's spirit. My mom loved sunsets. She used to say the reason she loved them was because they reminded her that we don't live in perpetual darkness. The sun always finds its way back, and for that, we should be grateful. And when you're missing her, just watch a sunset, because somewhere out there, she is watching too." That was beautiful.
Tara: Thanks.

Brie's apartment
Brie: Jack, I told you, I'm fine.
Brady: It's, uh, not Jack.
Brie: Oh. What are you doing here?
Brady: Ricky said you were sick.
Brie: Did he say anything else?
Brady: No. I just figured that everyone's at the funeral, and you might want some company. You know what? I can go, if you want me to? I didn't mean to intrude.
Brie: No. You're fine.
Brady: Whoa. You okay?
Brie: Yeah.
Brady: You want me to call Doc?
Brie: No, I'm fine. Thanks for the flowers.
Brady: You're welcome... May I sit down?
Brie: Go ahead.
Brady: Look, I didn't shoot Jack, and I'm not a dealer. I just need you to know that... And... This isn't an excuse... But when I was growing up, I... I didn't have anything... So when I saw how much cash I could make working for Calvin, I just... I jumped at it... I know. It was weak, and I wish I'd never gotten into business with him.
Brie: Because you got caught.
Brady: No. Because that's not who I am. Not anymore.
Brie: Sorry, but I just don't believe people can change who they are.
Brady: Well, that's a crappy way to view the world.
Brie: I started my career as a public defender, Brady. I've seen the worst in people, so, yeah, it's hard for me to have faith in people, especially people who've lied to me.
Brady: I'm sorry... But you're different from any other woman I have ever met. You're smart. You're funny. You stand up for yourself, which is sexy as hell... You got this edge to you that's... I don't know, it's like a freaking magnet. And I know, I know I got no business asking you this, but... Please, give me another chance to show you who I really am.
Brie: Why should I?
Brady: Because I've never said this to anyone. I'm in love with you.

Lilly's farm: porch
Jack: Hey.
Mel: Hey.
Jack: I figured you didn't have time to eat.
Mel: Oh, yeah, I haven't. Thank you... Oh, that smells good.
Jack: Lydie made it...
Mel: You know, I was just sitting out here thinking about... Being at this house with Lilly's family and how... She would've loved to see everyone here.
Jack: That's the thing with a funeral. The person who'd appreciate it most can't be here.
Mel: Yeah. I think I should probably go inside.
Jack: Mel, don't. Just wait... Look. There's something that I need to get off my chest.
Mel: Look, Jack, if it's about us...
Jack: Look, it's always about us. At least it is for me. You know, from the day I first met you, almost every decision I've made has been about you. I'm serious! Like, even breaking up with you was just me trying not to stand in the way of your dreams.
Mel: Yeah, and I'm accepting of our breakup because I don't want you to be unhappy.
Jack: Right. We both want the other to be happy. That's... That's love.
Mel: Oh, God, Jack, I just don't wanna get into this here.
Jack: Mel, you've gotta hear me. Look, today at the funeral, hearing about everything that Lilly and Buck went through and how their love prevailed, that's what makes life beautiful. That is what I want with you, so I need you to know that I am not going to give up on us... Ever. I know in my heart that you did not end up in this random little town by accident, okay?
Ricky: Hey, guys. Um, Jack, Preacher says we're ready for the toast.
Jack: We'll be right there.
Mel: Thanks, Ricky.
Jack: Mel.
Mel: Jack, they're waiting for us.

Preacher: You bet.
Ricky: Hey.
Jo Ellen: Thank you.
Connie: Yeah.
Tara: Hi.
Lizzie: Thank you.
Charlie: Thanks.
Ricky: There you go.
Muriel: Thank you Ricky.
Jack: So, thank you all for coming... Today we mourned the loss of an incredible woman... Tonight we celebrate her life. It was a life devoted to friends, family, and love... So I'd like to propose a toast. In the words of Winston Churchill, "We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give." Lilly certainly gave a heck of a lot more than she took, and we're all blessed because of that. I think we can all agree she made our lives better, and she will be forever missed... To Lilly!
All: To Lilly!

Lilly's farm: kitchen
Muriel: Doc!
Vernon: Hey!
Muriel: You did a lovely job with the service today.
Vernon: Oh, thank you. I couldn't have done it without you.
Muriel: Oh, it was nothing, really. In all those years as a thespian, I have learned to memorize things quickly, so it was my pleasure to be able to do a little coaching and "forget the words, speak from the heart."
Vernon: Yes. It really helped. I wanted to be so off-book for the service, but these days, memorizing is not my forte.
Muriel: Well, you did a wonderful job.
Vernon: Thanks.
Muriel: So still no sign of Hope?
Vernon: She didn't even make it out of the rental car lot before the check engine light came on. But I believe she'll be here in a minute or two. Yeah.
Muriel: It's just not the same without her, is it?
Vernon: Well said... Um... Let me take this. I'll see you in a minute.
Muriel: Yeah, yeah, of course.

Tara: I'm just gonna check on Chloe.
Lizzie: Oh, my God, I have the best news.
Ricky: What?
Lizzie: My friend's getting married in Tulum next month. Isn't that cool?
Ricky: Yeah.
Lizzie: Her family is renting villas for the bridesmaids, so we get to go for free.
Ricky: Us?
Lizzie: Yes, dummy. You'll be my plus-one, right?
Ricky: I, uh... I just... I don't know if I can go.
Lizzie: Why not? The place is free, and we'll probably fly on her parents' private jet.
Ricky: It's not a money thing.
Lizzie: Then what is it?
Ricky: I don't know where I'm going to be next month.
Lizzie: What are you talking about? You'll be here getting ready for school.
Ricky: No, I decided not to go to college.
Lizzie: Oh. So you're gonna keep working at the bar, then?
Ricky: Not exactly. I'm enlisting.
Lizzie: What do you mean "enlisting"?
Ricky: I'm joining the marines.
Lizzie: When?
Ricky: I sign my contract later this week.
Lizzie: I literally don't understand what you're saying.
Ricky: I go to basic this fall.
Lizzie: You planned all this behind my back?
Ricky: I didn't know if I passed my test. I didn't wanna say until it was official...
Lizzie: So you've been lying to me? When I covered your shift, when you said you were studying for college... That marine guy at the Lumberjack Games, you totally knew each other.
Ricky: I didn't know how to tell you. I...
Lizzie: I can't believe I fell for your nice-guy-next-door act... You're a liar just like the rest of them.

Bert: She was a beauty. She measured 45 inches!
Nick: Yeah, I haven't had a lot of luck with striped bass. I've mostly been pulling in trout.

Muriel: You have my number now. You call if you wanna talk.
Charmaine: Thanks.
Muriel: Charmaine was telling me that her father and Buck were very good friends. And nice job, by the way, on the toast.
Jack: So, what about you? How are the twins?
Charmaine: Oh, they're fine. Um... Todd decided that we're moving to Eureka without consulting me.
Jack: Oh.
Charmaine: Yeah. I don't know what to do. I... I love him, but everything always needs to be his way.
Jack: Todd's got a strong personality.
Charmaine: I know you don't like him.
Jack: Well, it's not about me.
Charmaine: I bet you're thinking, "I told you so."
Jack: No, I'm not... I'm not at all... I mean, hey, relationships are tough.
Charmaine: Hm.
Jack: I always said I want you to be happy.
Charmaine: I thought I was. And now I just... I don't know... I don't know what to do.
Jack: Why don't you try talking to Todd? Just explain exactly how you feel, and... Look, if he's not willing to meet you halfway, then... You find someone who will... You deserve that.
Charmaine: Thanks.

Lilly's farm: hallway
Preacher: Hey. What you doing out here?
Ricky: Lizzie's mad at me.
Preacher: Oh, yeah? How come?
Ricky: I enlisted in the marines and sorta kept it a secret.
Preacher: Whoa. What, you signed a contract?
Ricky: Not yet, but I will.
Preacher: You know, Ricky, serving in the corps was one of the greatest honors of my life, but it's not something you decide on a whim.
Ricky: It's not. I've wanted to be a marine since I was a kid.
Preacher: Then why do it behind everyone's back?
Ricky: I didn't feel I'd get a lot of support.
Preacher: Yeah, I don't think that's true.
Ricky: My grandma and Jack both want me to go to community college, and I thought Lizzie would want me to stay here.
Preacher: Listen... Doesn't matter what other people think... You know, I'd say that you're the one with doubts.
Ricky: Yeah, I'm not as confident as you are.
Preacher: Believe me, I wasn't confident at your age... That's a part of growing up. Figuring out who you are, how you wanna live your life.
----------
Lilly's farm: Chloe's room
Mel: Hey. I just wanted to come and see how you're doing.
Tara: I just needed a break... Everybody out there is so nice. It's just...
Mel: You don't have to explain yourself to me.
Tara: Thanks for coming to my rescue at the funeral. I was worried that I wouldn't make it through my speech, and then I didn't, so...
Mel: Well, I admire you for getting up there.
Tara: Why? I couldn't even string two sentences together.
Mel: Well, when my husband died, I... Didn't speak at the funeral.
Tara: Really?
Mel: Yeah... I just knew that I would break down, so I didn't even try... It kills me. He deserved better.
Tara: I'm sure people understood.
Mel: Yeah, of course, everybody... Everybody understood. It was just... I wish that I had had the kind of courage that you had today.
Tara: Thanks... You know, the support from you and from Doc and everybody, it's been so incredible. I just feel grateful to feel so loved.
Mel: You know, they say that love heals all wounds.
Tara: You think that's true?
Mel: Yeah, I do... I do.

Mel: Brie's feeling better. I'll come back and check on her tomorrow.
Jack: Thanks... I really appreciate everything you've done for her.
Mel: You're welcome. You don't have to keep thanking me. I love Brie.
Jack: Okay... Well, if you're ready, I'll take you back to the cabin. You shouldn't walk home alone.
Mel: Look, I've been thinking about everything that you said.
Jack: And?
Mel: And breaking up was definitely the safe thing to do.
Jack: Mel... I love you.
Mel: I know... I love you too... That's why my heart is telling me to stay with you.

Duncan: Hey there. Sorry if I woke you. I went by Hope's, but...
Vernon: No, no, it's okay. What can I do for you?
Duncan: Doc, I don't know, uh, how to say this, so I'm just gonna lay it out for you.
Vernon: What?
Duncan: There's been an accident.
