Oh, too heavy.

I need you. No, no!

God bless you.

Yeah!

The day won't go away, Mommy.

Grandpa said you have to be ready at 8.

Okay.

Okay, I'm getting up.

- Come on. - Alright.

We can't be late and you can't be fat.

I'm not fat.

Not yet.

- I'll go get your clothes. - Okay.

I'm gonna make you lunch.

Done.

Homework done.

Teeth, face, hair, done.

- Thanks. - You're welcome.

What are you doing with those thugs?

I know what tomorrow is.

It's been a tough year for you.

But at some point, you have to stop this.

Tomorrow, come to the church.

I'm not going to that church.

The bank called.

Your reference.

Ninety days behind, Laura.

You don't want to lose this place, do you?

It's one of the few stable things in Kate's life.

Kate is fine.

No, she's not.

And you should see that.

Open the door.

Papa!

Ah, there's my sweetheart!

Oh, gosh.

You look more and more like your grandma did

when she was your age.

Beautiful!

Are you still surprising Mommy today?

I am.

You didn't spill the beans, did you?

Nope. But it was so hard!

Good, you know how your mom is about surprises.

Morning.

Grumpy pants.

Girl, this is really nice.

It sure is.

I can hardly wait till Sunday.

Wonder how many people will show up.

Probably a lot.

And you know, they're doing such a good job with our...

Copy that.

So, here you go.

You know the drill.

I want you to go straight home

and don't open the door until I get there.

Hey, something wrong?

Daddy died today one year ago.

Yeah.

I know.

Okay.

Can I just come to the new church with you today?

- No. - Please?

We talked about this, remember?

You can't miss any more days of school.

Hey, I got something for you.

It's a bright color.

And it's a bright day.

Alright, kiddo.

Go ahead. Get to class before the bell rings.

I love you.

Ugh.

There she is. More beautiful than I remember.

- Ah. - Laura.

Clarke. You didn't tell her, did you?

No, I didn't want to spoil the surprise.

Surprise? What surprise?

Well, we won't keep you waiting too long on it,

but first, I want you to meet Xander.

Xander, Laura Bishop, your new protégé.

Former military, former lawyer.

Heck, she might've had your job if she didn't quit.

Shall we?

I know. I'm fifteen minutes behind schedule.

Well, they can't start without you.

Well, no, they can't.

Then you're on time.

Ha! That's what I'm talking about.

What would I do without you, Xander?

I don't know. You wouldn't be able to handle

all this without me.

That is true.

Do me a favor. Will you prep her while I, uh,

get up to this deacons meeting with Clarke?

Yeah, sure.

Yes, Reverend.

That's better.

Clarke, shall we?

Sure.

Do me a favor. Will you run up ahead?

I just gotta stop at my office for a second.

- Sure. - Alright, thank you.

Started working on security for the new building

a month after you left.

They hired me to replace you so I guess I should say thank you.

No. You don't have to thank me.

Cameras in all directions, two-way.

That glass is bulletproof.

All doors have automatic locks.

You don't think it's a bit much for a church?

Memphis, Tennessee.

Armed protestors stormed a church.

Virginia. Two men were arrested

for planning a mass attack at their local church.

South Carolina, nine dead.

Bottom line,

it's all a bit much.

Till it isn't.

There's more?

It's a subbasement. Level three.

Sanctuary's the heart. This is the brain.

In the event of a natural disaster,

this floor alone could house up to five thousand people.

Like a modern day ark.

State flags represent the church's reach.

I'd like to have that wall filled in a year.

Well, a lot has changed in the last year.

Mark's been working hard.

We all have.

Jenny, Tank. Meet Laura Bishop,

our newest member, Clarke's daughter.

Hi, I'm Jenny.

What happened to your face?

Oh, Mike Tyson got lucky.

She's got a sense of humor.

We're gonna get along just fine. I'm Tank.

Nice to meet you.

This is where you will start your shift every day.

You'll primarily have exterior patrol.

Fridays are the slow days.

Tank, do me a favor.

Get her personnel info on file, please.

I'll be outside.

I was just telling, uh, Rusty here about

how glad we are that this thing's finally

about ready to get opened here, you know?

It's about time.

Gentlemen, hope I didn't keep you waiting too long.

Punctuality is a virtue.

- Reverend, very good to see you. - Carl.

What do you say? What do you know?

How you doin'? Good.

Better be seen than viewed, young man.

How you doin', Rusty?

You old silver grey fox you.

Oh, I'm excited.

Can you believe that it's only three days out

till we open our new chapter?

Let's get you back top side.

The deacons wanted to have a word with you.

Last thing.

Room 139.

This is where we house the emergency exit.

It's the only way out from this floor if the elevators go down.

This says, uh, "janitor".

Yep, hidden in plain sight.

Pray you never have to see it.

Things have come together nicely.

Thank you.

I still do not believe this move is...

necessary.

But, as you all know,

I got outvoted.

Well, Rusty, you're always slow to change.

People have lost faith.

This building screams faith.

- Amen. - Something to aspire to.

Speaking of lost faith,

guess who's back today?

Hey, why are those guys in military formation?

Xander's training for opening day.

Hmm.

Laura, please take a seat.

Laura, these are new.

Small reference.

- You should take it. - Hmm.

Laura I know you don't like surprises,

so I'll just not keep you waiting any longer.

I also know you haven't been around the church much

since you lost David.

That is,

since David passed away.

And we all know how much David loved the kids

and dedicated to the kids of the church.

- Mm-hmm. - So we decided...

to honor David

and dedicate the new wing

to him.
