Chesapeake Shores

Previously on Chesapeake Shores...

Abby O'Brien!

Back in Chesapeake Shores.

Dad, surprised us with a family reunion.

To the O'Briens.

- I have news. - You decided to move on.

I don't need a mother.

You lost your chance when you walk out of my life, I'm sorry.

I was 14 when she left.

Why am I always considered the parent who left?

Because you did?

I thought to surprise you. Surprise.

What are you looking at?

My ex-husband is talking to my ex-boyfriend

and his ex-girlfriend is talking to Jess

whose ex-boyfriend wants to be Bree's new boyfriend.

You both asking for full custidy.

Children will spend their summers in Chesapeake Shores, Maryland.

Hello.

Shh, shh.

Something happened to Kevin.

I came arround earlier and now I can't find you

Call me.

What happened?

Look, I just want to get out of here. I got to get to the hospital.

Trace...

I got a call from my mom.

That's why I left the way I did.

Something happened to my dad.

Is he okay?

I don't know.

All I know is that my mother called me

from the back of the ambulance

and I just spent eight hours in a jail cell.

Well, why were you arrested?

I got pulled over for speeding.

There was a warrant out for my arrest from Nashville.

What? Why? Are you serious? I just bailed you out of jail.

The charges were filed after the accident.

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

- Really? - Okay, and then I got an attorney.

I was hoping he could make it go away,

but I guess he couldn't.

You told me it was just an accident.

I wasn't sleeping enough, and I got behind the wheel...

that's when John got hurt.

You know, for weeks I sat outside

his hospital room through two surgeries.

You know, I wanted to be there for him,

I wanted to tell him how sorry I am.

I never should've driven that night.

I should've stayed in Nashville,

I should've been there for John.

Look, can you just drop me at the hospital please?

I can find my way back from there.

Of course, of course.

Mom.

You okay?

What happened?

It's his heart.

I'm so glad you're here.

So this is the exciting part, okay?

The reason why we light the lanterns is because

during the War of 1812, when the British

sent three ships up the Chesapeake...

Dad, the lanterns are about the end of summer.

A celebration. Fun, you know?

For your information, Connor,

I am the very definition of fun, okay?

So that night, there was a terrible storm,

it was too dark to see, the ships were sinking...

Oh no.

I have to go into work early.

Girls, I am so sorry, but...

I'm not going to be able to take you

back to school shopping today.

I hate work.

Me, too.

I know. Sometimes, I do too.

You promised it'd be today.

I know, sweetie. I was really looking forward to it.

This is why you moved home.

You are literally surrounded by a back-up plan.

I will take two of my favorite granddaughters shopping.

- We're your only granddaughters. - What?

That's funny, I thought I saw a couple more here.

Wait a minute, let me see.

I thought I saw one behind you, right here.

Right there!

Do you even know what size they are?

Of course I know what size they are.

Well, how about this?

How about grandpa gets you started today

and then I will take you on the weekend?

Okay, that'd be fun.

I love you guys so much.

Okay...

Jess is texting me again for the fourth time this morning.

Aww, the B&B is full for the first time.

She's probably a teensy bit overwhelmed.

Don't coddle her.

She's perfectly capable of running her own business.

Yeah, I know...

I let all of you fall down and scrape your knees.

You can't fix things for her,

otherwise she's never gonna figure it out.

Okay, here is the shopping list.

There's not much...

Two dresses, a pair of... you know what?

I don't need a shopping list.

I raised five kids, I know how to back-to-school shop.

In fact, there's nothing more important in this life than...

Oh hey Sam, how are ya?

I'm glad you called back.

Listen, I wanted to talk to you about that deal.

Yeah, it's about the Simpson deal.

No no no, it's still viable...

Well I guess summer's over.

Back to being Dad.

So, you're definitely moving back to Chicago?

Writer in residence?

I mean, that's an amazing opportunity.

Guys, I get to mount my own play.

And I get to be paid to do it!

What?

What... no no no.

This has nothing to do with Martin, okay?

We are over.

It's so done.

Mostly, I think.

Not really.

Well, that's cleared up.

Whoa, here's one: two bedroom, two bath,

hardwood floors, utilities included

and a balcony by the pool.

You guys are really gonna live together?

Of course we are.

We aren't.

Come on, it's a no-brainer.

- Oh really? - I'll be working in Baltimore for the DA,

and Kev is going back to med school at Johns Hopkins.

Don't you think you should see

if you get the job first?

I will get the job, okay?

All that's left is the interview.

I'm great in a room, I'm a closer.

You went out pretty late last night.

Were you with Trace?

Who's Trace?

He's just a friend of Mommy's.

Uh girls, actually could you please run upstairs

and brush your teeth and get changed for shopping?

Okay.

Thank you!

Hey hey hey, plates plates plates!

You can do it.

You haven't introduced them yet?

They have a new city, a new house,

a new school.

I think they're good for right now.

Okay, fair enough.

About time!

I said it was a matter of life or death!

But you always say it's a matter of life and death.

What's wrong?

It's a disaster.

I'm overbooked and, I... I have a full house.

Well call the last people who made a reservation

and just tell them...

I can't! I don't have phone numbers for them.

And there's a couple who brought their German Shepherd

and another couple who only speaks French...

And the wi-fi is out.

And I put a red sock in with the sheets and towels.

That explains the pink.

Apprécierez les scones. Il n'y a pas de levure.

Everyone loves him, he speaks French.

He's not who I thought he was.

Who is he?

I have no idea.

He's helpful, but confusing in multiple languages.

Well, confusing or not, you have bilingual help.

Which means I'm going to go to work,

because I'm already late.

Abby, I can't do this.

I don't know why I thought I could.

Jess, you can do this, you're already doing it.

You just need to make a list

and figure out what you need to do next.

Okay.

You're right, I can do this.

I just need to make a list, a long list.

What comes first?

First, you breathe.

My sheets are dry. Please let them be white again!

I never should've gotten behind the wheel...

I should've stopped for the night,

but it was three o'clock in the morning, I just...

You know, I just lost focus for just a second.

Well they're charging you with Gross Negligence
