Good Witch

- This is my ex-husband, Wes. Wes, this is my boyfriend, Adam.

How would you feel if I met Wes at the cabin

to clear things out? - You have my blessing.

- I want to buy that clock. - Not for sale.

Who's got next? - I do! I win, I get that clock.

- And if you lose? - You get my truck.

- Thanks for the life lesson. - It's you realizing

that Grace and Nick are going off to college.

- Grace and Nick, they're about to head down

an amazing road. - Kind of weird

to have an empty nest. - So what do I do now?

- So you're sure I'm off the hook?

- Yeah. Martha's on the appetizers,

Stephanie's doing the entrée, and I've got desserts.

- Did I mention what a great idea

I think this progressive dinner is?

- Yeah, I think it's a great way for everyone to get to know Joy.

Aww, I appreciate that.

And I may have an even greater idea.

This should be interesting.

- Well, actually, it's Elizabeth Merriwick's idea.

I love making dream candles.

- Well, we should do it. - We should.

- Do you two want to tell me what you're talking about?

- It's an old Merriwick tradition.

A candle maker etches their dream

into the wick tap and then lets the wax set.

- Once the candle burns down, their dream is

Oh, I'm in.

- You're cancelling your cruise? - I don't see any other way.

- How does David feel about that?

- Ugh! He doesn't care a fig. If he did,

he wouldn't have pushed my buttons the way he did.

Which buttons precisely?

- The ones that light up and twinkle.

- He still hasn't put up the twinkle lights in the garden?

- And every day, it's a new excuse:

golf, the weather, the wrong kind of ladder.

Finally, I gave him an ultimatum:

no lights, no cruise.

- Well, far be it for me to dish out advice

to an advice columnist.

- Dish away! I dole out so much advice

that I don't have any left for myself.

You could outsource the job.

To who?

"Middleton's best handyman."

- Actually, Middleton's only handyman,

but who's splitting hairs?

- Won't that be saying that David is right?

- Do you want to be right or do you want to twinkle like a star?

- Nick's just going over his questions;

he'll be ready in a few minutes.

- I have never been the subject of a sociology paper before;

should I be nervous?

Very.

But at least you'll have Abigail and Joy sitting beside you.

- Yeah, three Merriwick women together,

you never know what we might say.

- Yeah. Maybe Nick's the one who should be nervous.

I know he's got a few days off, but he didn't need to fly home.

He could have done this interview over the phone.

He could have.

- Is there something you're not telling me?

About Nick? No.

But there is something you should know.

I'm listening.

- I am signing up for a drawing class

at Middleton Art Studio.

- Really? - Yeah.

With Grace and Nick out of the house,

I have some extra time on my hands.

- Well, look at you putting that art history degree to work.

Yeah, we'll see.

Studying art and creating it are two very different things.

I've seen you sketch.

- You thought my cat looked like an ostrich.

I... I said kangaroo.

And it had style.

Nice save.

Well...

I'll tell the Louvre to reserve space on the wall

for your masterpiece. - No pressure.

Black.

- Red. - I don't do licorice.

Interesting.

- What? That we're not all candy cohesive?

- No. You're all holding your tea mugs the exact same way.

Any other ways you guys are alike?

What?

- You could say we're all very.. - : Intuitive.

- Grace said the same thing in her interview.

Hmmm... What was it like

connecting with family you hadn't met?

- Hm, exciting and a little bit scary.

- And why scary? - We can be pretty intimidating.

- It was more the unknown than anything.

- And now that you've gotten to know us?

Still pretty intimidating.

Everything OK?

Uh, yeah. Yeah.

Where were we? - You tell us.

- I hope you like mint mocha. - For me?

- It's a thank-you gift. Your advice was spot-on.

It was!?

- David and I worked everything out.

Our trip is uncancelled.

Oh, that's wonderful news!

To think that my advice helped Dear Debbie.

- And now Dear Debbie will be helping herself

to a strawberry daiquiri and not worrying about

Bashful Bride or anyone else's problems for a week.

- Just because you're on vacation doesn't mean

that your column needs to be too.

Well, who else would write it?

- How big do you think these dream candles should be?

- Hmm... it depends on the dream.

What's important is that you put it into words.

- Well, meeting you guys was kind of like--

- A dream come true. - You read my mind.

- I didn't know you had that gift.

What am I thinking? - That you want

a glazed chocolate doughnut hole.

No, but I like how you think.

- You know, I just found out that they make doughnut holes

from the dough cut from the centre of the doughnuts.

- How did you think they made them?

- I thought they just rolled up little balls of dough.

- We have so much to teach you. - Well, I'm about to make

my first dream candle, so I have no doubt.

- And you have no words for it in here.

I say go big, pick something fun.

- I've always loved the Florida Keys.

Now, you have my attention.

- OK. I want a lounge on a deck

in a house I designed in Key West,

drinking a piña colada and watching the sunset.

- Save me a spot. - Save me a piña colada.

- Now, you just have to etch it into the metal.

What are you gonna etch?

I'm working on it.

- You're got getting off that easy.

What about rafting the Ganges River?

- Hmm... I did that when I was 25.

- Climbing Machu Picchu? - 26!

- There's gotta be something you haven't done.

"E.M."

Elizabeth Merriwick.

- The candle's never been lit. I wonder what her dream was.

- Oh, that clock face is perfect!

It will undoubtedly be the icing on this renovated cake.

- What are you doing here? - This is my house.

Not you. Him.

- Oh, I take it that you two know each other.

- We've met. - We haggled over that clock.

- Well, haggle no more. I just paid handsome for it.

- You mean handsomely? - What? Oh yes, yes, of course.

- How do you two know each other?

Joy is my designer de maison.

- I'm renovating the place. - You?

What's that supposed to mean?

- Well, it means we're working together.

- I just hired Carter to be our head carpenter.

- Oh, looks good! You're spicing up the menu?

- Spicing up my progressive dinner.

- What's a progressive dinner? - Three courses,

three houses. I'm doing the entrée.

- This little joint make a cold brew coffee?

: Wes!

I thought you left!

- I was literally boarding the plane

when I got a call from the realtor.

Already have two offers on the cabin.

- Wow! That's amazing! - I know.

So I figured I'd stick around for a day or two,

so we can close the deal. - Makes sense.

- Also give me a chance to wear my leather jacket.

- I think you mean my leather jacket.

Hahaha! Hey,

I was thinking. Once the cabin officially sells,

- OK. - Great!

- Good morning! - Hm, it is now.

- Is Nick up yet? - I haven't seen him yet.

I haven't see him at all.

Almost feels like he's avoiding me.

I'm sure you'll catch up soon.

- That'll have to be later; I've got two surgeries

scheduled today. - Have a great day.

- Yeah. You too. - Hmm!

There you are. You just missed your dad.

I did?

Bummer! - Yeah, he thought so too.

I'm gonna get some fresh tomatoes out of the garden.

- Morning. - Morning.

Oh, I'd love an onion bagel.

- Cinnamon-raisin all the way. - OK, this conversation is over!

Hey, you know, I heard a rumour

that you design video games. - I'm learning.

- Man, I remember when I was learning to renovate houses.
