The Way Home

Previously on The Way Home.

I was up all night writing a song. I felt inspired.

You're in love with a Landry?

Whose family has been blackmailing us?

The house isn't ours, but I'm going to buy it.

And then we can go home.

The suitcase was buried?

But packed, like she was going away.

You left your baby? What kind of a mother does that?

You're gonna kill your son.

- Please! - No!

Elliot!

There was one death. Fifth body?

No, they all died down here.

El, stay with me, stay with me.

We have to get to the pond, okay,

we're gonna get you to a doctor.

She didn't make it out, did she?

She's gone, Kat...

Everyone will be fine, okay?

No, hey, listen, we have to keep going, okay?

It's just a little bit further. Okay?

It's okay. You go.

I can't, El, hey... no, we grow old together!

Do you remember that? This isn't how we end.

Not after everything that we've been through, so...

please, okay? Come on? El?

No, no, no. No, no, no. El! No!

No!

- Jacob! - Alice. Are we here?

Is this 1926? - You know the truth?

About the explosion? That... - More people died

than just one. - No. No, no, no.

The pond brought us both here for a reason.

We can't be too late! Come on.

It's just a little bit further. Mom!

We have to get him home, Kat, now!

Okay. How are you here? Wait, no!

It's okay.

I didn't see breathing. I didn't see him breathing!

He's going to be okay. He has to be, come on.

No!

No!

Fern?

Fern!

The pond won't take me back,

I don't know if Elliot's still alive!

Cliff was suposed to kiss me at midnight.

Why didn't he kiss me?

You don't stand a gal up like that.

Not on New Year's.

Wait, Cliff isn't here?

I mean, he was with us in the tunnels.

We got out, so I'm sure that he did too.

Of course he did, Kitty Kat.

What goes in must come out, right?

He and I...

we get to grow old together.

Hey! Here! There's a body here!

Get in here!

Let's dash.

I have a column to write, about a lovely party.

Did you see the fireworks?

They were so loud.

Good morning.

Look, I know you're avoiding me.

But we really should talk.

About what I know about the pond.

A lot has happened since then, Sam.

Like what?

Hey! Hey!

Help! Help!

Del, call 911.

Help!

Oh.

It's such a beautiful love, isn't it?

Aren't I lucky?

You are the luckiest.

I really, really am.

Because...

I'm pregnant.

We were going to be a family.

I was going to tell Cliff at midnight.

Why did I wait?

It's the perfect song to sing to a baby,

don't you think?

Four of the five I saw go in were pulled out.

The fifth's still missing.

Coop's gone, Fern. So's Percy.

And that undercover cop.

And what about Cliff?

I came to get clothes for Fern.

How is she?

Her fiancé is dead. How do you think?

Well, Fern doesn't need to worry because I've written

her New Year's column

with the message to Coop's bootleggers

about the terribly tragedy.

And yet, you won't say a word about the explosion

in the paper, will you?

I promised Nate Simon a scandal-free Port Haven.

The paper will say a big fish has been caught.

History is written by the winners.

I will not win until this film has been made.

How can you still care about that?

People died last night, Grayson.

I was trying to get out of things! Right?

I was trying to help! I...

I'm a good person.

I will make this right...

by Fern.

Where did you... get that?

My sister found it amongst some artwork in a cupboard

in our attic. She gave it to me in secret just before she died.

She knew what it meant.

The Landrys are Lingermore's rightful owners.

Our Founding Father's second wife

inexplicably left it to them.

Her name was Susanna Augustine.

She was a good person.

Best person.

I used to bring her to Landry farm, you know?

Cass.

Her and Fern were very good friends.

She just seemed stronger there.

We'd run through the woods. Sit by the pond.

And she loved it.

That's why the mural has us there.

With the angel above us.

You mean the White Witch.

You sound just like Cass.

Believing in that old fairy tale.

This and the film

are the light at the end of this ruined tunnel.

Maybe. But if there's one thing that we learned

from last night, it's that you can't take anything

or anyone for granted.

Oh.

Fern, can I get you anything?

Maybe some tea?

How about time?

I want to go back.

For the first time in my life, I want to jump.

Will you go with me, Kitty?

Please?

Fern's not here.

She's out finding your man a penguin suit for tonight.

Whatever we may say or do, it's to keep Fern safe.

The pond only took us back a day!

A day is all I need.

Anything that keeps Fern out of trouble has my blessing.

Thanks. I'll see you.

Oh. Oh, hello, lovely.

Hey now, no peeking. It's supposed to be a surprise.

I thought you were off finding a tuxedo for Elliot.

Looks like you got caught in the rain!

Oh. I...

I had to come back. Because I missed you!

I missed you so much.

Hey. I'm not going anywhere.

Tonight's a big night for both of us.

The start of a new adventure.

Yes. It will be.

Cliff.

I don't wanna follow the rules anymore.

When were you ever a rule-follower?

I mean,

I wanna tell you about the future.

I wanna tell you that...

All I want to do is share it with you.

Because...

we're going to be a family.

Family? Are you...?

Oh!

Oh, my love.

Oh, you magical, incredible, gorgeous thing!

Now, I know we've said our vows

to one another, we're official in my books, but...

let's go down to the Town Hall and do it proper.

Now, what do you say? We can go now, we don't need to wait!

We'll do it tomorrow, alright?

Alright. Alright.

Well, at least let me drive you to Lingermore, then.

Oh, no, Cliff. It's fine.

Hey, now. I'm not about to let my beautiful pregnant fiancée

hitchhike, am I?

Let me just go grab my coat.

Yes. Go get your coat.

I love you, you know. I always will.

I love you.

And I can't wait to kiss you at midnight.

Yes. I'll be waiting.

Don't try to be the hero. You already are.

Just run and find me. Before the clock strikes twelve.

Please.

Wild horses couldn't keep me away.

Hey. Hey, Fern.

He knows, Kitty.

That's all I could want now.

Down in that tunnel, he knew he would be a father.
