The Way Home

Previously on The Way Home.

There are secret underground tunnels beneath this house.

Will you marry me?

I'd be proud to be a Goodwin.

Any luck getting in touch with Vic?

He's on his honeymoon.

I'm pregnant, Alice.

I'll get back soon to be with you.

If you could please keep your eyes out

for Tessa Augustine, or Tessa Cooper.

You've got it, kitty cat.

I don't know where Tessa wound up,

but I think I know who took her.

That motorcycle belongs to my brother,

Griffin Landry.

I haven't seen Griffin in almost three years.

Visiting home was not exactly a priority for him.

Do you think I should go?

I don't want to impose.

I was just wondering

where the rest of the welcoming committee was.

Nearly gave Grandma a heart attack.

Yeah, well, surprise visits will do that.

What brings you home, Griff?

- I need a reason? I missed you.

Missed a lot. I mean, my graduation for one.

My wedding, which you said you'd be here for.

- You got my note though, right? I meant to come, but...

You know how tricky international flights can be.

No, I don't, because I've been here looking after the farm.

It looks better than ever.

Besides, how would you ever catch a girl's eye

with your much better looking brother

still in the picture, right?

And you must be the lovely Delilah.

- Oh, um, no! I'm-I'm just a friend.

Del's out of town.

She's visiting family.

Can you believe it, Col?

It's been so long since my beautiful boy came home.

I thought it was Errol Flynn at the door.

Alice.

I see you found both of my grandsons now.

Grandma Fern, you know Alice?

Oh, we go quite a ways back.

To earlier this morning.

Now, Alice, you simply must join us

for our little family reunion. Mmh?

- Uh, no, thank you. I mean,

but I should be getting home, so.

Nice to meet you, Griffin.

Welcome home.

All right, brother!

Just grabbing my bag.

Now that I know so many family members can time travel,

it's feasible that Griffin could too.

He was so enigmatic.

That's what he had in common with Tessa.

It's not that I had any proof of an affair.

It was just a feeling.

But in that time before Tessa left,

I could have sworn something was going on.

It would explain Tessa's letter.

"I jumped for love."

I-I'm sorry.

My mom and Colton's brother jumped in the pond

and are living their best lives somewhere in time,

and you're just telling me about it now?

It's not that simple.

Griffin left long before Tessa,

and he came back for other visits

after she was already gone.

My mom could have come back with him,

even if she chose not to come back for me.

Okay, we need to just try and track down Griffin,

wherever he is.

Believe me, I've been looking for him.

Griffin Landry doesn't want to be found,

even if he still alive.

- Griffin Landry? What about him?

Oh, um, Mom thinks he took Tessa into the pond.

I just met him in 1976.

Maybe that means that the pond will take me back to him.

Whoa, wait, hold on.

Let's just talk about this.

No, it can't be a coincidence

that I was there for his big return.

Let me try and do this, for Elliot.

I'm so sorry, Elliot.

I should have told you sooner.

Colton and I were trying to protect you.

This was before I knew anything about time travel.

You sat on it for months.

You of all people know what secrets have done

to this family.

El...

I'm glad we did this.

It's a beautiful day, isn't it?

It sure is.

Upsy daisy.

He's getting so big, Evelyn.

You've been gone too long, my dear.

Um, I... Actually, I was here to see Griffin.

My beautiful boy?

He's been gone nearly as long as you have.

Two years in the blink of an eye.

Mama loves you.

Shame, isn't it?

They're growing up without you.

- Yes, sweetheart. - Hi, baby.

I give up.

I am hitting the same walls

as mom has in this search for Griffin.

There is literally no sign of him

past the early 2000s.

I'm sorry that you're not having any luck.

The pond did bring you to meet him once,

so maybe it's worth another try?

No, Mom, I-I can't face Evelyn after I've missed so much.

And what if the pond skips me forward even more?

Max Goodwin is power texting you?

Shoot, I'm supposed to meet him and Noah.

Uh, weird question.

You only kissed Max that one time, right?

Like nothing else ever happened?

Mom, of course not.

I'm with Noah.

- Great. And Noah is great.

Hey, Ali?

Why do you have a bullet casing?

That's what that is?

I found it in the catacombs under Lingermore.

Evelyn said that Al Capone used those tunnels in the 20s.

Having met Grayson Goodwin,

the idea of him having ties to American mobsters,

that does not surprise me.

Well, I guess Elliot's still giving you the silent treatment,

huh?

Yeah, it's been over a week, and we never fight.

Well, I don't mind distracting you

until this whole thing blows over.

Thank you, Sam.

I could use all the distractions I could get,

especially after Alice leaves.

I swear, my nest is growing emptier by the day.

There's always the option of leaving your nest

and coming and joining mine.

Leave Landry Farm?

I don't mean selling it.

Of course, Cat or Jacob will one day take it over,

but I'm right next door, Del.

We'll spend all our time together.

Oh, oh, whoa, Stormy.

Easy boy.

He has developed a real aversion to that path through the woods.

Maybe it's the pond.

Some horses don't like water.

You know about the pond?

Well, yeah. I stumbled on it once when I was out for a ride.

Seems like a very special place.

I suppose.

I got big news!

I found...

the first brick-and-mortar for Wally's.

Well, actually, my grandpa found it,

but it's right on the beach, it's got a gorgeous patio.

It's in Peggy's Cove.

Which is five hours away?

Yeah.

It's a-it's a big move, but...

I figured you guys would be gone next month anyways.

And my grandpa offered to help with the lease down payment.

Okay, restaurants are notoriously risky.

Are you really trying to go bankrupt before you're 20?

Jeez, thanks for the vote of confidence, man.

I think what Max is trying to say

is that I've never heard you talk about

owning a restaurant before.

The restaurant was my grandpa's dream,

but I feel like this is building on my long-term goals

of wanting to franchise the Wally's brand,

so it's a win-win.

Dude, you have a really good thing going here.

Max, you're like the most ambitious guy I know.

I thought you'd be more supportive.

What do you think, Alice?

If it feels right, then I'm excited for you.

Thank you.

So I guess the three of us are off

to bigger, better things come fall.

Yeah.

About that.

My grandpa actually wants me there as soon as possible.

Wait, what?

How soon?

Like next week soon.

But I'm-I'm gonna be going back and forth a bunch,

and I wanna make sure I spend as much time

as possible with you before you leave.

It's gonna be great.
