Cedar Cove

Previously on "Cedar Cove"

Please don't ever bring a cup of coffee...

- Into my courtroom again. - Oh, well, I was just...

It seems congratulations are in order.

All it says

is that I'm being considered for Federal Judgeship.

I want you to break off the engagement.

You're not really acting very ethical

right now, your honor.

You're not gonna hurt my daughter.

Cedar Cove 01x02 A House Divided Original Air Date July 27, 2013

Hey, Grace!

What are you doing here?

You're not supposed to be home till Sunday.

Gee, thanks. I missed you, too.

I'm sorry.

Welcome home!

Thank you!

I just didn't want to go to my place.

I wanted to come here first.

I'm glad.

How was Sedona?

It was amazing.

The sun and the red rocks

were so beautiful.

Perfect place to just go and relax

and feel sorry for myself.

Well, you look great.

Why don't we make some tea, put our feet up

and talk?

Okay.

Dan mailed our divorce papers to the hotel.

Guess he's in a hurry to make it official.

Room service delivered them with my morning coffee.

That's horrible.

Just completely ruined my pity-party vacation.

That's why I came back early.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

You can only do so much yoga and meditation

before you start to get sick of your own inner-child.

Well, Dan's an idiot, and I'm glad to have you home.

Have I told you how much I appreciate

you for being there for me throughout this whole thing?

God knows you've been here for me!

Well, I'm very grateful.

So... I brought you this lovely souvenir.

It's a rock.

It's from Sedona!

I didn't have time to shop.

Oh, Grace!

You're gonna be alright.

I promise.

How do you know this?

I feel like my life is over!

Because I know you.

You're beautiful and kind and smart...

and you have me.

This isn't the end of anything.

It's a new beginning.

A new chapter.

An exciting adventure!

Are you using book metaphors because I'm a librarian?

Too much?

Nah, it's okay. Keep going.

You are the author of your life.

You get to decide what storyline comes next!

It's your sequel!

Can I be taller and thinner?

Why not?

So, Paul, from here to here.

Okay, now, I know

you've got to probably take out a few trees as well,

that's fine, but try to avoid this one here...

That's a selling point.

It's a beautiful oak, but...

I'll be right back, okay?

Called your office. They said you were out here.

Sorry to interrupt, but, um...

I've been leaving you messages, you don't return my calls...

I'm sorry, honey, I just...

I've been really busy lately, that's all.

What's going on?

Oh!

I'm just working out the logistics

to tearing down the lighthouse.

Tear down the lighthouse?

Yeah, Justine. I own the property.

I've been trying to sell it

for two years now.

But I've changed my strategy.

You see, I'm going to level the land,

and build up a new estate.

Warren, no, you can't tear down the lighthouse.

It's been here forever.

It means a lot to people in town.

Look, I don't have time to discuss this right now.

Let's talk about it later.

Now, look, you came down here.

If you have something to say, say it.

If not, I've really got to get back to this.

I'm breaking off our engagement.

I can't marry you.

Okay, wait a sec. What is go... wh... what're you doing?

You're breaking up with me?

We were never a good fit.

We both know it.

You know what? You're right.

You're absolutely right. I have been avoiding you.

I've just been trying to figure out in my own head

how to tell you the exact same thing.

What?

That you were gonna break up with me?

Yes, and I should've done it earlier.

I'm sorry, I just, uh...

I just didn't want to hurt you.

That's fine.

You want to be the one who officially ends this...

It's the truth, Justine. I was gonna come over...

I don't care. Go ahead. Tell them all that you dumped me.

I'm fine with it.

You know what? I don't have time to talk like this.

Okay? You're making a scene.

I've got a lighthouse to tear down.

Are you kidding me? A Federal Judgeship?

Something you have dreamed about since, like, forever.

How could you turn that down?

I don't know,

I just was afraid I'd miss Cedar Cove,

and my family and my friends,

I was afraid I'd get homesick.

Oh, no, no, no, no. No, no. You...

You are hiding something.

- No! - Yes, there's more to this.

No, I... it just didn't feel right.

Mom!

What're you doing here?

Uh, I live here, last time I checked.

I thought you weren't coming home until Sunday.

No. The email I sent you specifically said today.

Oh, gosh! I am so sorry.

It has been totally crazy.

The last few days, I can't even keep my head on straight.

Oh, just the last few days?

Catch up later? I am so late for work.

Go!

Mwah!

- Bye! - Bye!

Is she ever not late?

Are you okay?

26 years of marriage.

A lifetime of memories.

I just... I never thought

I'd be starting over again at my age.

I know...

just don't look backwards, look forwards.

It's time to build new memories.

You.

All positive and uplifting.

Of course I am! I learned from you.

Oh, yes, you did.

Wow. It's beautiful.

Thank you.

We want to run an ad in the paper.

First or second page.

We want to reach everyone in town.

Well, why don't you just

stand in the middle of the road and shout?

I'm sorry. My idea of small-town humor.

Um, okay, so you want to buy an ad?

Yeah, the Thyme and Tide.

Yeah, we are the go-to bed-and-breakfast

in the area.

And yes, I know, before you even say it,

we are...

The only bed-and-breakfast in the area.

We just added wifi to all the rooms.

- People need the Facebook. - Oh, they do.

So, have you thought about what this ad should say?

Uh, something catchy and provocative.

Sex sells!

Oh, it does.

You know, something that really grabs your attention.

"Once you sleep with us,

you'll never want to sleep with anyone else."

That actually might be too provocative.

- Really? - Yeah!

Y... uh... I-I see what you mean. Yeah.

I'll tell you what, guys.

I will come up something tonight

and put it in the paper tomorrow.

Right between

Warren Saget tearing down the lighthouse

and the new Apple Store...

Which, as it turns out, just sells apples.

Warren Saget's going to tear down

the Cedar Cove Lighthouse?

- Mm-hmm. - No.

That's not possible.

Well, he says he owns the land,
