Good Witch

Previously on Good Witch...

Couldit be that Middleton's man of medicine

is finally starting to believe in magic?

No; I do believe in Cassie.

This town's very own flower shop owner.

That's me. Abigail, the flower shop girl.

This town really needs you.

Here you go. Keep the change.

- Hi! - Hi.

- Beautiful house, isn't it? - Yeah, I kinda wish I was

- staying for more than one night. - Yeah, I've got a quick turnaround, too.

What are you in town for?

A career opportunity. You?

Ah, just thinking about some options for my future.

So this could be an eventful day for both of us.

- I hope that it is. - Welcome to Grey House.

You must be Jim. And you must be Annabel.

Either she was expecting us or that was a really good guess.

I have both of your rooms ready for an overnight stay.

All I need is a quiet place to rest before and after my job interview.

- Job interview. - Is it with DyNayTa Tech?

- V.P. of marketing. - Ah.

Looks like you and I are each other's competition.

Oh. Well then, good luck, I guess.

I should probably say the same thing to you.

Why don't we get you settled in, and then

you can both enjoy everything Grey House has to offer.

I set up croquet in the back if either of you would like to play.

Oh, thanks, but I don't think that'll be happening.

I never have time for games.

- I wish I did have more time but... - You and me both.

When are we gonna get that?

I just need to get through today, get this job offer,

and then move on to the next.

You've decided you're getting the offer?

They say personnel directors

like candidates who exude a high amount of confidence.

And yet it's the more humble who tend to actually get hired.

Why don't we pause this conversation for now

and get you two inside, and maybe you can both have a wonderful day.

- Good morning. - If you say so.

- You ready for another day of beauty? - At my flower shop?

It'll be the same as the day before.

No two days are exactly alike.

People come in wanting flowers;

people leave carrying flowers. And then it happens

- again and again. - Abigail, good,

I got you just in time. I need some flowers.

See?

I'm trying to get the city council members

to approve my proposal on speed limit adjustments.

And I thought if I showed up with flowers they'd be more apt

to listen as I convince them of my idea.

Do you even know why people are against it?

I don't see how that matters. I just need them to know that I'm right.

Well, you might as well say it with flowers. Right this way.

I do enjoy coming in here whenever I get the chance.

- It's just a room full of flowers. - Really?

Is that all you see?

Just tell me what you'd like so I can get started.

Oh, well, I came in here thinking

"carnations," but it looks like you might be running low.

Except I ordered a shipment that just arrived.

- I don't see it. - Look again.

I've got a van full of carnations for...

- Me. Thanks. - Great-looking shop you've got here.

- Just tell me where to sign. - Right here.

Just use your finger. Perfect.

I've got ten more boxes outside.

- Great, you can bring them in. - Okay.

So, how many carnations did you want?

- Ooh, put together a big bunch for me. - But can you do it quickly?

I have to get back to city hall to greet a new officer

and dive into the brand new day.

Well, I guess I'd better help get that day started.

I didn't realize this house

- had an actual library-library. - I like to keep a mix

of material so guests can find what they like. Hello, Annabel.

Hi.

You look like you're enjoying the spirit of this house.

It's so rare to have the time

to just curl up with a book, I thought I should take advantage of it.

Take all the time you need.

- So, how'd your interview go? - Pretty good, I think.

They seemed really impressed with my background in tech.

Really? Because they told me they really liked

the unique perspective that my non-tech experience would bring.

Sounds like you both have interesting things to offer.

Edgar Allan Poe. He's that "Quoth the Raven" guy, right?

There's a lot more to Poe than The Raven.

People still read that stuff?

- I've read everything he's ever written. - And I'm named after one of his poems.

Oh. I guess I'm the odd one.

Maybe there's a book over there you'd like to read.

Make sure it has a lot of pictures.

- What time is breakfast? - Seven until nine.

- Can I request an earlier one? - I'd like to be able to eat on my own.

And I was wondering if I could get a different room.

Maybe one not so close to the other guests.

Well, I promise

to make both of your stays here as pleasant as possible.

- Thank you. - Great.

Sam.

Hey. I was just checking to see if you can still make our date for coffee.

- Oh, tonight? - Yeah,

- we talked about getting together? - Oh, yeah, I thought I could

make it but... I have a couple of guests here

that I think I should stick around and watch over.

I see.

Um, can we move tonight to some other time?

Yeah, sure, no problem.

Okay, I'll see you then.

I'll see you later.

So, I take it the date's not happening?

Not tonight.

Shoot. I was all ready to say "dinner is served!"

I guess I shouldn't have tried to surprise her.

I'm sure you'll get another chance.

Ready for another day.

- Hey. I will see you later. - Have a great day at school.

- Did you study for your history test? - I studied all last week.

I thought when the test was postponed yesterday

you might take advantage of the extra time.

To study the exact same thing?

One more day might help you see things a little differently.

- Yes, Mom. - Bye, honey.

- Bye. Have a good day. - You too.

Here ya go. Keep the change.

- I'll get your bag. - Oh, thank you.

Well! I thought you were leaving today.

- We were supposed to. - Both our flights got canceled

and they couldn't rebook until tomorrow morning.

And you decided to share a taxi?

Seemed like a waste to take two.

Do you think we can get our same rooms?

I'll make sure things are exactly the way

they were before. Welcome back to Grey House.

Thank you.

- Uh, who are those for? - Oh. You.

And I've got ten more boxes just like them in my van.

- I didn't order all that. - I sort of wondered about that,

since they're the exact same order that you got yesterday.

Well, I don't need them, so you can take them back.

I wish I could, but all I do is deliver, so...

I'm gonna need your signature here. You can use your finger.

Yeah, I've done this before.

Great.

So,

- when are you gonna try take two? - What?

- For your date with Cassie. - Oh, I haven't thought that far ahead.

Well, it's a good thing I have. How about Thursday night?

- I'd have to move some things around. - Then move 'em.

After the dinner rush, I'll close down the Bistro

- and the place can be all yours. - Okay, I think I can

- make that happen. Let's do it. - And...

I was thinking maybe we should up the ante this time.

This is something we're doing?

You want the night to be perfect, right?

Of course.

Well, sometimes "perfect" needs a little help.

And you're always saying that Cassie is doing everything

for everybody else and you wanted to have a special night

dedicated just to her, so this is your chance

- to really come through. - I just want her to enjoy herself.

How can she not? I'm already gonna make her favorite food,

and we can get the exact same flowers that you got for her.

So she'll see what she missed.

Except this time I actually have time to decorate and make the place

- look extra special. - We ne decorations?

Yeah. We're going all out so that this is perfect.

And you're gonna come up with an extra idea

or two to make this date even more amazing.

Now it sounds like you're giving me an assignment.

This started out as your idea.

That's true.

Well, now this gives you one more chance to get things right.

- And really impress her. Okay. - Let's make it fantastic.

It's already going to be fantastic. I'm cooking.

- Hey. - Hi.

I was unpacking my things

- and found this in my suitcase. - Oh.

I think it's from your library, but I have no idea how it got in with my things.

- You're welcome to keep it, if you like. - Thanks.

I've always been a fan of Poe's work in the field of dark romanticism.

Maybe it's worth a look.

- Would you care for some tea? - I'm not much of a tea drinker.

Would you like to become one?

Why not?

Mmm. That's pretty good.

I brew a fresh pot every morning.

Well, then I'm glad I ended up staying for one more day.

What are you doing?

- You see this marble? - I'm supposed to get it

- from here to there. - Oh. Doesn't look that hard.

You wouldn't think it would be.

Don't you think you've already studied enough?

Yeah, but since they postponed the test again...

I would use it for another day to relax, since you already know everything.

You're right.

Okay, gimme the phone.
