This is gonna look so cute on you,
Here, try it on,
I don't wanna go,
You have to,
Look, the county fair is part of your assimilation into Silver Falls life,
You should look the part,
I don't think Alex cares if my outfit screams hoedown or not,
I think he has more important things on his mind,
- Like? - Like competing,
And, like, why he's still mad at me,
He's still mad at you? From the awards dinner?
That was ages ago,
And all because of Cole, who is just so awful,
People say horrible things when they're drunk,
No, they say honest things,
And Cole said he wishes I'd never moved here,
Yeah, well, maybe it's like, uh,
you know, a boy tugs on your pigtails, it's actually because he likes you,
I hate that idea, though,
Anyway, I'm with Alex,
At least, I think I am,
You need to go talk to him,
I've tried,
Try again,
Okay, I have an idea,
Look, these will fit you,
Ah! Come on, Let's try them on, Let's see,
I'm not sure I can pull those off, Maybe you should wear them,
No, the county fair is, like,
the one time of year my parents let me stay out past curfew,
which means my fashion choices carry mega weight,
Well,
what about,,,
this?
It was Lucy's, I think she'd really love for you to wear it,
Oh my God, Are you sure?
Thank you,
Okay, I'll wear this as long as you wear this,
♪ Falling for you ♪
♪ Uh-huh ♪
♪ Babe, I think I'm falling for you ♪
- Hi, Mom, - Hi, honey,
- Did you take your meds this morning? - You don't have to ask me every day,
I know, but it's just,,, Okay,
You're right, I'm sorry,
Here he is, a cowboy,
Gosh, I'm so excited for this fair,
Mom, we're going to the fair,
Hi, Dr, Walter, Bye, Dr, Walter,
I told you to call me Katherine, Skylar,
Okay, Dr, Katherine,
- Honey, did you charge your phone? - Yes,
Okay, Thanks for looking out for him,
- Mom, - Sorry,
Thank you,
- Honey, - Hmm?
He's gonna be okay,
This came today,
Neurologists are doing well,
Yeah, that was just for 20 minutes,
I think it's time I call Mato's friend,
The developer,
Just see what he has to say,
Potassium plays a key role in reaching peak athletic performance,
Or so my chemistry book says,
Not hungry,
Okay, Listen,
I just,,, I need you to know that I did what I did at the awards dinner
for your mom, not for Cole,
I didn't want her big night to be completely ruined,
That's what I was thinking about, Nothing else,
So you weren't choosing Cole over me?
No, I swear, I was choosing your mom,
But it's not just that,
You didn't tell me the extra credit assignment was for him,
You let me think it was for you,
Mr, Choudhry asked me to give it to him,
What was I supposed to do?
You could have just told me the truth,
Could I?
You and Cole have been at each other's throats,
I just,,,
I didn't want you to read too much into it,
You really think I'm that much of a dick that you can't talk to me?
Well, I wasn't gonna say it,
It's just-- It's really hard
being in the middle of this thing between you and Cole,
- You've gotta get past it, - It's not that simple,
Why not?
Okay, well, for what it's worth,
I'm here, and I'm choosing you,
Hey,
Poulticed his legs this morning,
Put electrolytes in his grain, He's good to go,
What about his shipping boots? Was he wearing those on the ride over?
This might be your first rodeo,,,
This is why I don't want you as my groom, You don't take it seriously,
I did everything on your damn checklist and then some,
Okay? Hey, how about a "thank you, Cole" for working all damn morning,
And he rode over in his shipping boots,
Thought I smelled manure,
Damn, Calamity Jane's got her spurs on today, huh?
Nice touch, though,
Cole, don't,
Okay,
What is it this time?
Oh, like you don't know,
What you said to me?
At your mom's award dinner,
Don't really remember that night,
You know what, Everyone uses that as an excuse,
but I don't buy it,
Drinking doesn't give you a free pass to be an ass,
Next up, we have number eight, Alex Walter,
Hey,
He's in the living room,
Hey,
Sorry, You know I always cry at sad movies,
Oh,
Dr, Strangelove ?
Who knew it was such a tearjerker?
What are you doing here?
Oh, I just came to drop these off for you, I was in the area so,,,
- All the way out here? - To hike,
Oh,
Would you wanna,,,
I mean, if,,, if,,,
Sorry, Would you want to come with me?
I mean, we should probably talk about the apartment lease anyway,
Yeah, You know what, some fresh air could be good,
Yeah,
I'm just gonna change,
Okay,
That was amazing,
I think I held my breath the entire time,
Honestly, so did I,
Really?
Yeah, I was worried I'd be too slow,
and I'm not used to all those people watching me,
Well, I couldn't tell at all,
You looked like a pro,
Oh, and I had a good day today too,
I just got an interview for a summer internship
working for a Princeton alum,
Uh,
that's amazing,
The job's in Lockwood,
but they have offices in Denver, Chicago, New York, Houston,
But the interview is tomorrow, during your competition,
That's fine,
Hey, I know how much Princeton means to you,
And I'm so proud of you,
I'm way too fried to write another sentence,
Me too, Should we just call it?
Can we do a marathon sesh in the morning?
I don't want school hanging over us before the concert tomorrow night,
You're going to the concert? Cool, it's gonna be awesome,
Your fave,
Triple latte, extra vanilla and honey,
Hi, Olivia, We were just leaving,
Erin,
Come on, Give me five minutes,
If you still hate me after, I'll leave you alone,
I've tried everything with her, I don't know what to do anymore,
Two words, Olivia, Girl code,
As in, don't sleep with your best friend's boyfriend,
It's gonna take a lot more than a free latte to fix what you broke,
That was way more than two words,
It's better to suck at math than at girl code,
- Hey, me next! - Wait, Seriously?
That thing looks like it's held together by masking tape and rusty screws,
- I'll be fine, - Nathan!
What?
Okay, I'm ready,
Nathan! Nathan! Nathan!
Come on, Nathan! Come on!
Oh my God, Are you okay?
- Did you hit your head? - No,
I'm fine,
- That was so dangerous, - Why?
- Because I have epilepsy? - No, it's dangerous, period,
For anyone,
I have to admit, I'm a little embarrassed that you saw me like that back there,
Do not feel bad,
I have listened to our song like 500 times,
I think I sing "All of Me" better than Jon Legend by now,
That's not our song,
Yes, it was,
"Let My Love Open the Door" is our song,
- What? - Yeah,
Yeah, from the road trip,
What?
To Telluride,
Remember?
Oh my God, that's right, and you thought the lyric was "Let Marlo open the door,"
Okay, that's not my fault, That's because Pete Townsend doesn't enunciate,
It's the accent,
It makes more sense that Marlo would be opening the door
rather than, you know, love,
- But okay, Pete, - Okay, Pete,
- Do your thing, - Do your thing,
I can't believe I forgot that,
Why'd you quit Lark After Dark?
- It was your baby, - It was our baby,
Yeah, but you loved it more,
It was too hard being there without you,
I screwed everything up,
No, It wasn't just you,
I am confused, though,
You chose the Lark over me, and then you quit,
And you're still doing your real estate job,
- You hate that job, - Yeah,
I have no idea what to do next,
I'm too old to be this lost,
Okay, first of all, you're not old,
And you'll figure it out,
There is one thing I have figured out,
You are more important to me than any job will ever be,
We are more important than any job,
It should not have taken us breaking up for me to realize that,
What if we,,, learn how to communicate better?
Let's stick to some work-life balance ground rules,
And take it one day at a time,
Okay, but,,, Will, to make it work, we both really gotta want it,
Hayley, I really want it,
- So what are we waiting for? - What?
Look, I want to marry you,
I have always wanted to marry you,
So, yes, we can tiptoe into the baby pool or we can cannonball into the deep end,
which is a little risky,
but we know the waters 'cause we've been swimming in them,,,
Have I gone too far with the pool metaphor?
- Little bit, - Sorry,
The wedding was part of the problem,
Yeah, so forget the big wedding,
I don't care, We could go to a courthouse,
I just want to get that part behind us so we can start our lives together,
Okay, but my mom and your mom would never forgive us
if we go to a courthouse,
It's true,
You know,,,
being back home has been pretty great in some ways,
- Hmm, - Connecting with the land and all,
It's beautiful out there,
Wait, you want to have the wedding at the ranch?
We would keep it simple, and get the Lark to do the catering,
The kids could pitch in to help, Dad can make his killer cupcakes,
But a small wedding is still a lot to organize,
I mean, how are we gonna get all--
Jackie,
- Yep, - You think your parents will mind?
They will love it,
I love you,
I love you too,
Appreciate you coming,
Take care,
Hi,
Hey,
Your mom told me to look out for you,
- That is so embarrassing, - She's just worried about you,
Yeah, I know,
But I feel like I need to prove I can still do things,
To who?
Maybe I'm trying to prove it to myself,
I get that, but you don't have to prove yourself to me,
You know that, right?
Really?
Really,
Okay,
Ms, Howard,
tell me what makes you a unique candidate for our prestigious firm,
Well, I have a very strong work ethic, and I'm extremely organized,
Come in,
Hey, you busy?
Just practicing for my interview tomorrow,
Is that,,,
Yeah, It's from Juilliard,
I can't open it,
- You sure? - Yeah,
- I got in? - You got in,
- I got in? - Yeah, you got in,
What?!
What's wrong?
I mean, I,,,
I don't know if I'm gonna be able to go,
I'll need room and board, and plus, there's the tuition,
I'll call Uncle Richard,
He has more bedrooms than he knows what to do with,
and I'll bet he knows somewhere you can get a job to help cover tuition,
- Really? - Of course,
There's no way you're not going,
- Okay, - Okay,
Thank you,
Whoo! Yes,
Okay,
You okay?
I'm so nervous,
Are you nervous?
No, I just have to ride like I did yesterday,
You're gonna crush it,
Yeah, I'm more excited about going to the concert tonight,
I've never been to a county fair concert,
You haven't lived, So I'll meet you there?
Yep, Danny's picking me up after the interview,
After you crush it,

Thank you,
- Hey, - Oh, hi,
Hi,
Do you wanna go on the Ferris wheel or the swings first?
Um, swings, but first, you wanna see something?
- Okay, - Okay, ready?
Okay,
- Grace! - I know, Isn't it so pretty?
Okay, but wait,
Wow, okay,
You are not at all over dressed to go on carnival rides all day,
I know, but we're going to the concert later,
and this dress goes from day to night
like the perfect transitional wardrobe staple, Ah!
- Hey, Ms, Carrie Bradshaw, Come on, - Let's go,
Next up is Alex Walter, number eight, who made an impressive debut run,
Let's give him a loud welcome back,
Oh, no, what a disaster,
It looks like a broken rein,
Such a promising start earlier in the competition for this newcomer,
but that's gonna be disappointing for Alex Walter,
Good job, Alex,
Hey, Hey, hey, hey, Hey, It's okay,
- You trying to kill me? - What?
You didn't double-check the rein,
It snapped,
I checked it three times,
It's the rider's responsibility to check it too,
I did,
Then you know it was fine,
Whatever,
You can go, It's over, so I don't need your help anymore,
Look, right here, The leather's worn thin,
Okay, it probably snapped around the turn, but you're not gonna admit that, are you?
Not when it's much easier to blame me,
Oh, that's rich, coming from a guy who takes zero responsibility ever,
I know you don't think much of me, Alex,
but I hoped you'd know that I would never do anything
to deliberately hurt my own brother,
Oh, seriously?
Well, that's exactly what you've been doing my whole life,
What are you talking about?
The Paige thing, right? That was ages ago,
She was my first girlfriend, How could you?
I didn't know about you guys!
Why can't you just,,, just give me the benefit of the doubt for once
instead of always assuming the worst?
I didn't know!
- I was gone all-- - All summer, I know! I know,
You're with Jackie now, right? So then what does it matter?
Oh, it's about so much more than the Paige thing,
and you know it,
It's about how everything is effortless for you,
It's about how every single time anything good happens to me,
you destroy it,
It's about how you just waltz in and conquer and plant your flag
without considering who the casualties are,
I've lived my whole life in your shadow,
Do you know how hard that is?
You get all the attention, You are the charming one,
Everyone wants to hang out with the football star,
the most popular kid in school,
Even my girlfriend leaves me to help you when your dumb ass is drunk
and ruining Mom's night,
I regret that night, okay?
I regret all of it,
You can't even imagine how much,
but,,, do you really have no idea what it's like for me to live in your shadow?
- My shadow? - Yes!
Your shadow,
The perfect Alex Walter,
so smart and kind and reliable,
Nobody makes Mom and Dad prouder,
You know how often I wished I was just a little bit more like you?
Look at me, man,
My grades are tanking,
My leg is totaled,
Football was my shot,
Now, it's gone,
Any chance I had at a scholarship is dead,
Well, I mean, you said it, I peaked sophomore year,
- Hey, Cole, I didn't mean that, - Yeah, well, you were right,
I'm a worthless loser,
My rehab cost Mom and Dad a fortune,
And for what?
I'm just a failure and a disappointment,
- I'm a burden, - Don't say that,
You hear me?
You are not a failure,
You are not a disappointment,
And you're not a burden,
You are Cole Walter, and you're my brother,
And even though I want to kill you sometimes,
nothing is ever going to change that,
I know you're not gonna believe me,
But I am sorry,
I'm sorry too,
Let's get this tack put away,
Well, you have excelled in a great variety of extracurriculars,
Are you interested in any leadership positions as well?
Absolutely, And junior year, I plan to make that happen,
I'm not surprised, Your dad was an excellent leader,
You knew my dad?
Not well,
He lived down the hall from me freshman year at Princeton,
Oh my God,
I read about the accident,
I am so sorry for your loss, Jackie,
Thank you,
I'd like to end with one final out-of-the-box question, just for fun,
Mm-hmm,
How would you describe the color of gold to a blind person?
Jackie?
I'm so sorry, Um, what, uh,,, what was the question?
How would you describe the color of gold to someone who is visually impaired?
I, uh,,,
I don't know,
Hey, I'm gonna grab the rest of the stuff,
No, I got it,
Well, does that mean World War Walter is over?
Yeah, I guess,
Well, I won't ask, but I'm glad you guys worked it out,
Yeah,
Tough break out there,
Yeah, tough break,
Hey, it didn't go your way, but when it went sideways, you kept your cool,
And you did the right thing for your horse,
I'm proud of you,
Thanks, Dad,
So listen, After your go around,
a guy from the Intercollegiate Riding Association came up to me,
He wants to meet you,
But I,,, I didn't even finish,
Doesn't matter, Those guys recruit potential,
Way to go,
Yeah, Perfect,
- Thank you, - Thank you so much,
I am starving,
- I haven't really eaten all day, - Not even sure I'm hungry,
We had the London talk,
if you can call it that,
He's leaving,
He said it so calmly, like,,,
like I was so disposable, you know,
Like, um, he can just find someone else wherever he lands, no big deal,
You know that's not true,
You are not disposable,
Hey, uh, silver lining,
we can cry into our drinks together, right?
Breakup buddies?
Yeah, well, actually,
I, um,,,
I saw Will yesterday,
Was it weird?
Oh, yeah, 100%,
Um,,,
At first,
But then, we just sort of, I don't know, realized how miserable we were apart
and that we want to be married,
Oh,
We're gonna work on communicating better,
and he's not gonna get so caught up in work anymore,
Right, Can we order some drinks over here?
But we want to do it right away,
I mean, his mom and dad said that we could do it at the ranch, like, soon,
- Oh my God, - I know,
Where is that waitress?
- Hi, - Hi,
Can we order a bottle of champagne, please?
- A bottle? - Yes, a bottle,
We've got a bachelorette to plan,
Over here, New York,
Where's Danny? He's supposed to--
Be your ride, I know, Benny wanted him to read him his bedtime story,
so you get me instead,
Not gonna say anything about the truck?
I'm meeting Alex at the fair,
Almost a year of rebuilding the entire engine,
It's finally up and running,
- We're going to the concert tonight, - Yes, I know,
Okay, That's where I'm taking you,
Oh, well, does Alex know?
You can relax, He knows,
We had a good talk today,
About?
About everything,
Miss,
Caught your event, Alex, You got a real knack,
Thanks,
You doing other events too?
Not yet, but I want to,
We've seen a real increase in scholarship money last couple years,
And we're looking for kids with a real horsemanship talent,
Not just adrenaline junkies,
- You interested? - Like a college scholarship?
Yeah, Yeah, we're interested,
Okay, I can maybe get you a spot in a summer training camp,
- Yeah, thanks, - Thanks, Chet,
You're prepared to spend a summer in Montana?
- The whole summer? - Uh-huh,
It's gonna be a pretty boring drive if neither of us speaks, so,,,
Fine, How was Alex's competition?
- A disaster, - Why? What happened?
Well, he struck out,
It's okay, 'cause he,,,
You know what? He'll,,, he'll wanna tell you himself,
Oh no,
No, No,
Gosh,
Can you fix it?
I don't have my toolbox,
I was on my way home to get it when I got asked to pick you up,
Oh, I see, It's my fault,
Bet you really wish I'd never moved here now,
Then you wouldn't be stuck with me in the middle of nowhere,
I'll call Will to come pick us up,

I just wanted a chance to explain myself,
You already have,
I should've known what I did would hurt you,
but I didn't realize it because,,,
because I didn't want to,
because getting attention from Cole was like a drug
that I knew was bad for me, but felt so good,
I got to pretend I was cool,
popular, whatever,,, for a minute,
And that was hard to turn down,
We've been friends since third grade, Erin,
Don't you miss the good times?
They've been obscured
by the backstabbing, boyfriend-stealing times,
Hey, remember when the food was so bad at sleepaway camp,
and we snuck out and walked through the McDonald's drive-through
and you sprained your ankle?
Or the year we made our own M&M costumes for Halloween,
Remember?
You were peanut, and I was plain,
Yeah,
I'm really sorry,
Please forgive me,
'cause I really miss my best friend,
I knew Cole was with other girls, so I don't,,,
I don't really have the right to blame you,
I mean, maybe a little,
Not forever,
Promise we won't let a guy get between us ever again?
I promise,
Did you notice all the memories were about food?
I'm literally starving,
I,,, I ran out of the line just to get in this ride,
- Okay, let's go get some food, - Okay,
I kind of want those twirly chip things,
- You know the chips on a stick? - Tornado potato?
- Hey, - Hey,
Sorry today didn't go so well,
Actually, I might be going to summer training camp,
Might be?
Well, it means leaving Jackie behind for the summer,
so I have to talk to her first,
You should do what you want to do, Alex,
I know, I know,
You guys coming in? It's gonna start soon,
Yeah,
Come on,
Alex?
Oh, I'll,,, I'll wait here,
Jackie should be here any minute,
Okay,
Come on,
Thanks,
The engine got so hot it's still warm,
You could come try,
Less chance of freezing to death,
I'm fine,
Suit yourself,
I'm so glad Will and Haley worked it out,
And we get to have a wedding here,
It's amazing,
You remember when we moved in here?
As I recall, you, uh,,,
you weren't very happy about moving in with my parents,
Well, I wanted our own home,
Turns out our home is wherever we are together,
That was 20 years ago,
Phew,
It has been a roller coaster,
No one can take that away from us,
You did everything you could to keep this place going,
You should be proud,
The developer did make a strong offer,
I think we gotta take it,
- You know, a little bit, - Oh my goodness,
Paige?
- Go talk to him, - No,
Just go talk to him,
Hi, Alex,
- Thanks, - Mm-hmm,
Hi,
Look, I don't blame you if you hate my guts,
- I completely-- - I don't, I don't,
You're allowed to do what you want,
The thing is, I may not be Cole Walter, but I am someone,
Someone who liked you a lot,
And you missed out,
I know,
Things turned out for the best in the end,
I'll see you,
See you,
Is it really warmer?
See for yourself,
Will should be here soon,
How was the interview?
Terrible,
I got stumped on the last question,
Something actually stumped Jackie Howard?
She asked me how I would describe the color gold to a blind person,
What did you say?
Nothing, My mind just went blank,
But I should've said
it,,, looks like the taste of warm honey,
Or,,, that it sounds like Nina Simone's voice when she's singing
"I Put A Spell On You,"
Or that it feels like
the sun on your face,
But I couldn't say any of that, 'cause I was thinking of something else,
I was distracted,
And I hate being distracted,
And I hate that you think I wish you never moved here,
You said you didn't remember,
You just walked away before I could finish,
