00:00You
00:17Hey
00:19You're back in town
00:21Sorry, I'm late. The plane from Boston was delayed as usual. You're here now, right? That's what matters, right?
00:26Cool. So I made some changes on the plane. Okay got in touch with the city for the final code inspections
00:32There should be no further delays
00:33Is that the art for the lobby for the whole wall to the entrance to the new pediatric waiting area?
00:38What do you think I thought we were going for art that would complement the modern lines of the building?
00:43No, the board thought she captures a lot of innocence that would connect with younger patients besides just a lot of experience
00:49It's a little juvenile. Don't you think I mean I didn't spend all this money on industrial materials to have it covered with clouds and
00:55Butterflies, well, I like to think I've captured the essence of the community in my sketch
00:59Either way your roles for the patients not you
01:04Vanessa Brent juvenile artist

10:45And I don't know if this can grow into anything more than a friendship
10:49I
10:56Already had a woman in my life with secrets and it wrecked me
11:02You're mysterious and it's intriguing but you scared me I
11:10Need answers
11:11I'm just living life on my own terms
11:14I'm
11:16Connecting or sharing your life. It doesn't feel like living. It feels like running away fair enough. It's my life
11:35Then I'll leave you to it
11:44You
11:49Wow, I can't believe that you've really captured the spirit of Creek Falls
11:55Peaceful welcoming and you're not even finished. Thanks Carolyn. That means a lot to me

12:27Glad to see you back at work
12:31You really scared me
12:34I'm sorry. I wasn't up to talking the other day
12:38What you saw is a byproduct of the medication I have to take to make sure I can keep working on my list
12:46So you want me to stop worrying about you yes
12:51What if I want to spend more time with you well we can keep having fun together and on my list
12:57You
13:04Well, I did get a peek at that list and there is something special I think I could help with
13:10Why don't I pick up after lunch we take the afternoon off sounds like a plan
13:27You

13:33If being on time can be a bit of a curse, but today it's working for me
13:38So are you ready to go pretty much?
13:42So what's the surprise
13:44Today I am the one with the secrets now. Are you sure you don't need a secret consultant because I have years of experience
13:51Yeah, I think I picked up a few pointers
13:54It's so I'm guessing there's a car ride in my future that is okay. How did you do that?
14:05Are we going hiking cuz I have sails on nope
14:14Okay, now do I get to see this surprise patience is a virtue test feels like luxury
14:23Oh
14:37Look
14:54Oh
14:57When I was a little girl my grandma told me that butterflies only live for a day
15:02You know some butterflies actually live for weeks even months
15:08Yes, indeed and monarch butterflies go on these incredible journeys. They migrate for
15:14Thousands of miles that kind of sounds like my journey
15:18Well, I'm just glad that your journey brought you here
15:24You
15:38So do you have any more fun facts about butterflies mr. Science I do actually
15:45Did you know that butterflies are cold-blooded they need to bask in the Sun in order to be able to fly
15:54I worked here for a few summers to help pay my way through college. That's nice
16:01Yeah, I felt like I was on this path I thought everyone had to be on you know college
16:07Career get married start a family of my own
16:12Thank you. I
16:14Did not see this big break in the road
16:17Sounds like you were blindsided
16:20Maybe
16:21Maybe I was just paying too much attention to the road ahead
16:26So focused on checking boxes. I never
16:29engaged with my life
16:33The divorce has sort of forced me to pay attention
16:38And are you paying attention now
16:42I sure am
16:50Now I would like to share with you one of my very favorite things
17:00This is a peanut butter and mayo sandwich
17:04Mayo, mm-hmm. I know a little cookie Nate Dalton. I prefer fun loving
17:11Okay
17:15I know, okay. Here we go
17:19I
17:26Mentioned this when I was eight. No, you did not cause that stir in my school
17:36Shooting star make a wish
17:39Let me guess you wish to finish your list
17:45What do you wish for for you to be okay?
17:53Should it be okay? Are you okay? I'm okay. I told you I can take care of myself
17:58I
18:00Want you to be okay, are you okay? I'm okay. I told you I can take care of myself
18:11I just don't think it concerns you
18:19I wanted to concern me
18:24I'm just not ready
18:28I
18:31Shine brighter than the stars and you know, you're butterflies
18:39And lots of those butterflies made you so happy
18:44Reason let's get you home
18:53Five more minutes
18:56Five more minutes
19:12So what's next
19:15Riding wild stallions bareback. What else is on the list? Hmm
19:19There's rock climbing. I know a good place for rocks. We'd go tomorrow Saturday
19:25I'm not working. I should probably keep working on the mural
19:28But thank you for a truly a special day. I loved every minute of it
19:35Well, I will see you for breakfast in the dining room
19:38Well, I will do my best to convince you to spend the whole day with me
19:42Sound good
19:55I
19:57What do you think can we trust him I
20:03Like him too
20:06Maybe just maybe we can cross last two items
20:12Maybe
20:15I
20:23Good no early risers. They'll be down in a few minutes
20:27How was the social any good gossip this week? Hey, is Arthur Goodman still doing the thing with the suspenders and the belt?
20:34Don't make fun of Arthur Goodman. There's nothing wrong with making sure your pants don't fall
20:40sit I
20:43Had a nice visit with Joyce
20:46Her nephew is coming to visit next month
20:48Of course he is and all my friends want to know how your children's ward is coming along. Well, it isn't exactly mine
20:56But you can tell them that I'm drafting the last couple of changes. They're going in for approvals
21:01We're nearly done. It's all pretty positive
21:04Great. That's what I assumed
21:07And how are you and Vanessa?
21:13I'm your mother. I see the way you two look at each other. She's a lovely person share
21:20well, uh
21:23The mural is gorgeous. It's perfect for the kids
21:28She just she really seems to care you can tell it with every brushstroke the way she teaches the children
21:39So this is a relationship then
21:42I don't know
21:44she's very private I
21:47Saw her covering up some bandages from some blood tests
21:51I I don't know what's going on with her
21:54But she doesn't want to tell me and I can't have another relationship filled with secrets not after Taylor
22:00Vanessa isn't like that. You two are good for each other. You lift each other up
22:05Maybe but what if you need to let yourself heal from Taylor?
22:10And know that you and Vanessa are a completely different kind of couple
22:15Wish people would stop bringing up Taylor
22:19Who's bringing up Taylor?
22:22At the social
22:24Sweetheart, I don't know how to say this except to say it
22:30Joyce heard that Taylor's pregnant
22:35Taylor
22:36my Taylor my
22:38Ex Taylor
22:41That Taylor yes
22:44Nate
22:47Breathe honey. Oh, I'm fine. I'm fine. I
22:50Know how much you loved her you stuck it out for so many years. Yeah, I did I
22:57Yeah, I thought we were till death do we part I I thought we wanted to have children together I
23:05Guess she just didn't want to have children with me
23:11You know, sometimes things happen for a reason it's only been a few months she's already pregnant with somebody's baby
23:18Yeah, I would have made a great father and you will be when the time is right exactly never
23:27I
23:30Can't do this what Nate
23:34Nate's
23:37He's angry with someone else not with you
23:40Not one day has gone by in these last few weeks that Nate has a smile from ear to ear because of you
23:46There is no way no, there is every way he wouldn't want this
23:56I don't
24:04Oh
24:12Sam
24:18I have done it all I've done silly things on your list. I have done
24:26the dangerous things on the list
24:29The last two Sam
24:32to love and
24:35Be loved and to get married. I don't know. I have opened up my heart
24:44You know how hard it is for me to do that
24:48But I really tried
24:51The last two things in the list, I don't know if I have it in me it's just
24:59I don't know
25:09I am losing faith
25:12I have fought so hard
25:17I've done all the treatments
25:20And I've poured in my heart out countless murals across the country
25:25I painted you in them as an angel because I felt you with me
25:36I am tired. I am tired to the bone. I just
25:43I just need to rest. Please adjust. I need to need to rest
25:55You
26:12You have knocked it out the park Vanessa
26:17This mural is ten times more amazing than I thought it would be I
26:21Can't wait to share this with everyone at the opening gala
26:24Thanks Wallace
26:28So
26:30You think you'll finish in time I always do
26:35Excellent
26:37You seal the deal to remodel a hospital in Vermont and they asked if you'd be interested in painting a mural for them
26:44I
26:52Love the state of Vermont and I've always wanted to work in a project there ice cream
27:00Well, they'll find your place to live and they got a good budget great where I get the more I can give back
27:05I
27:10Understand supporting the cause and everything but
27:13Can I ask?
27:15How you living you need money to live too, right? I
27:20Have my own means
27:23And art raises the spirits no matter how dire your situation I
27:29Focus on serene colors so that the kids that come in here can feel comfort and light
27:35They need to feel the peace and the hope that I can inspire. I
27:40Want my art to make you feel better without you even knowing why I
27:48Should stop chatting and keep painting if I'm gonna finish this on time for the gala
27:52Let the Vermont Hospital know you agreed to do them. Thanks Wallace
28:00They'll be over the moon
28:06You
28:08Climbing is such a workout. I'm feeling muscles. I never even know I had
28:13There's a real color in your cheeks. I'm glad to see my son's absence isn't a drain on you
28:21It's hurting me more than I want to admit Iris I
28:25Can't wallow in it. I have to finish the mural in time for the gala. Will you stay after the gala? I
28:31Don't think so. I got a job in Vermont. I'll be painting the mural the hospital there
28:38Wallace is project managing
28:40You're moving to Vermont. Mm-hmm
28:43All the fresh air and the fresh dairy. It'll be fun all good points, but
28:50Will you tell Nate?
28:52Well, he's not exactly around to tell I
28:55Haven't seen him. Have you?
28:58His boss called him back on a project up in Boston that was erupting like a volcano
29:03Family's been spending too much time here and the other projects suffered
29:07That's that
29:10I'm glad he's getting his priorities in order
29:14You are exactly what he needs right now
29:17If he had said that himself, I'd be inclined to believe it
29:21Please talk to him Vanessa
29:27I'm gonna miss you Iris. I should go. I'll talk to you later
29:43Yeah, so he just
29:44Left for Boston. So I can't believe he just left. Well, his boss needed him back on a project apparently sure his work
29:52And he came back for the weekend right you didn't hear me Nate left period
30:02There you go, buddy, sorry, I dropped it that's okay. I noticed you were putting a lot of work into your painting today. I
30:11Like seeing that kind of effort. I hope to be as good as you one day
30:16well, I
30:17Think that you can do whatever you set your mind to Reese
30:23I'm waiting
30:25Waiting for what?
30:27For you to say that you'll fight for him. I have done enough fighting for my life in in my life
30:33Kind of over it, but I saw the way he looked at you the other day when he dropped by and he barely knew you
30:38then
30:39Well, you at least just tell him about you moved to Vermont. I
30:43Don't want you to leave Vanessa. Oh
30:46Oh
30:48Sophia you have so many great friends here lifelong friends. I'll always have your back
30:55But who will have your back
31:01Samantha always Samantha is Samantha
31:07She's someone who loved me I was always there
31:15I
31:37Nothing came up on your MRI and your blood work markers look really good
31:41Looks like you're just gonna need routine blood work once a year
31:44Once a year. Oh
31:47Wow
31:49So does that mean I'm officially in remission? It looks that way. You're a very lucky girl. I
31:55Know
31:57Every morning I wake up. I'm grateful. I'm still here
32:00Well, it's been a long journey
32:02But you beat the odds and your diligence with the drug regime is really paid off
32:06So no more pills no more pills, which means no more side effects
32:12Thank you, you're so lucky good luck Vanessa go live your life to the fullest
32:24Thank you
32:32Mm-hmm lucky you
32:34Mm-hmm lucky you are looking at a future top chef or maybe a future Nobel Peace Prize winner
32:45Future I
32:49Haven't had an actual future in years
32:57Think of all the murals I can paint now and think of all the new adventures I can have I can climb mountains
33:04And I can I can see all the great art of the world. I can I can sail the seven seas
33:11I'm not sure if I like sailing. Well, I'll see
33:19Ready for the next adventure lucky. I'll take that as a yes
33:34I
33:39Thanks for calling I was feeling a little at loose ends with myself with Nate being gone again, yeah
33:46I'm glad we can go to the gala together
33:49me too
33:51Life's too short to wait for anyone
33:54You know it
33:56You know we should do what we should stay up all night and watch the sunrise
34:01Okay, but I need a favor
34:04Okay
34:05Can you teach me the tango? Can you I can teach you again? I can't mind. Oh, no. All right, we're on

34:24Love love love love love it
34:27The colors the style the images this is Creek Falls and you are giving hope to everyone who walks with these doors for care
34:35It's extraordinary. Thanks Carolyn. You are now appointed my number one art reviewer. I'm not trying to inflate your ego
34:42I'm truly blown away. You're gonna make me blush
34:46On another note, the kids are going to miss you terribly. I'm gonna miss them, too
34:53And I'll miss you
34:55Friends with you has been one of the best parts about living here and there are a lot of good things about living here
35:00Oh, you're gonna make me blush
35:02I'll try to swing by and visit the kids before I go
35:07Any chance you could make Creek Falls your home base
35:11you could still go and paint travel have big adventures, but just
35:16Call this place home. I love Creek Falls, but
35:22I just have to follow my path to be open to where the road my road will take me
35:29And Nate
35:32You don't see a path that leads you back to him
35:35No
35:37Unfortunately not. He's still in Boston. I
35:40Haven't heard. Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie. That's really unlike him
35:45It's blindsided. I
35:47Left my heart out there
35:50Open
35:52I'm so confused about men. No, don't let me discourage you
35:57There are a lot of decent guys. There is someone for you
36:02You're right. I'll meet my soul mate out on the open road. That's very profound
36:07But tonight we celebrate
36:12Hmm I'm going to get us more champagne. Thank you
36:20Vanessa
36:22Wallet, you'd be pleased to know that all your laboring is paid off. Everyone loves the mural
36:30You should be proud thank you. I am really proud of my work
36:36But I'm also really proud to be a part of this journey
36:40It's quite an amazing journey
36:43Yeah, I'm very grateful
36:50I
36:53Care to dance I would love to dance
36:59You know, you still owe me that I do I do yeah, you do you're a very good dancer. Thank you
37:08Me Nate
37:10You
37:18Hey, hey, well Nate
37:26Excuse me
37:29The mural is spectacular
37:33Congratulations, thanks
37:38There's your signature angel
37:41She's always there when someone needs strength
37:54The work is so famous. Why don't you just sign it with your own name? I
37:59Don't paint murals and hospitals for attention needs. I don't do it for money. I
38:05Do it to comfort the patients and their families and caregivers
38:09To give them hope when there's darkness to remind them that they're loved and they're not alone
38:24So you're leaving tomorrow
38:28I
38:35Mean I go find her. No, please. I
38:40Know I don't deserve it after my little vanishing act, but I would love the opportunity to give you an explanation
38:55Okay
38:58Okay
39:03When I found out Taylor was pregnant it really messed me up
39:12I had been wanting a family for so long and she had been resistant to that idea
39:22And I realized now that she just didn't want to have a family with me
39:29I
39:31Had to come to terms with that
39:35I wasn't the right person for her
39:38But more importantly she wasn't the right person for me either
39:44Vanessa you you have opened me up to living life fully and
39:51My life doesn't feel full without you in it
39:55You are my person Vanessa
40:02Look I hear you. I
40:07Just don't think I'm that important to you
40:11Mean I let you in and you just left without an explanation. You just left me here. I made a mistake. I understand that I
40:18Was just so confused about the list and the pills, but while I was away
40:23I
40:24Came to understand that it doesn't matter how much time we have
40:29Just that we get to spend it together
40:36Time is so precious
40:43I just don't know if I want to invest it in someone who's broken my trust
40:54I'm sorry
41:09It's open
41:17Hey, Vanessa
41:20You mind if I come in yeah the place so sure
41:36Can we sit
41:49You
41:59So
42:01So is it um quite quite a big mural that you're you're painting in in Vermont
42:08Very big
42:12Sounds tough
42:19I
42:22Have you been
42:24Fine my mom mentioned that you gotten some news
42:32Yeah, some really good news you just won't let me in
42:42I can see how from your perspective that seems true
42:50But I was only trying to protect myself
42:54And Samantha
42:57Who is Samantha I've heard you mentioned her was she your grandmother
43:05No, she's not my grandmother
43:11She's my guardian angel and I'm her life
43:16It's okay, it's okay
43:21Samantha I miss you so much
43:26It's okay
43:32She knew her disease was incurable and yet she spent
43:37All her strength trying to help me
43:41That's the strength I see in you every day
43:43That's the strength I see in you every day
43:47That's the life that we see in your murals
43:53After
43:55After she died I started to get better and I went into remission your pills I
44:04Thought that that you were dying and that's what you couldn't share with me
44:09The pills were to help me rebuild my immune system after years of treatments I
44:16Was in remission, but the doctors weren't ready to give me a clean both holes
44:22That's that's the news I got yesterday
44:28And I wasn't here to share that with you
44:33I'm so sorry
44:39There's something else that I haven't shared
44:44When we first met I couldn't place where I'd seen your artwork before I
44:51Went online and did some searching but none of it really connected
44:58Then at the gala I saw your mural and it clicked
45:03My
45:08Father was at a hospital in Delaware
45:13He did a mural there must have been one of your first
45:19He mentioned it several times and I remember wheeling him back to his ward one time
45:25He pointed out the angel in the mural
45:27And
45:29Your angel gave my father peace and tranquility in his final hours
45:38She gave me peace
45:41So you and I
45:44We've been close even though we never met
45:48I'm the painter, but Sam was always the angel
45:52Well, she brought us together. So so she's my angel, too
45:57Yeah
46:00I'm so scared. You started working through your list
46:06The closer we got the more the idea of you
46:11dying
46:13Golfed me. I didn't know how to feel but now I know I
46:20Know that I have fallen completely in love with you and your spirit
46:27You've changed how I look at life and how precious our moments are here
46:34Life's short. I don't want to waste any more time without you
46:51I'm yours
46:52If you'll have me
46:54Having you here right now hearing what you're saying, it's giving me more strength than you could possibly imagine
47:03But
47:05Don't disappear again, please
47:09Promise I didn't mean to run away on you. That was just about my past
47:14And letting go of old dreams so that I can restart
47:19And make new ones
47:21To look forward to the future
47:24Yeah
47:28Future
47:34Sam wrote the bucket list
47:38All the items on the list are things that she wanted for me
47:43And I feel sad doing them because she she never could she wouldn't want you to feel sad
47:52It's especially the last two
47:54to
47:56fall in love and
47:58get married
48:00they break me because
48:03She never got to meet her person never got to feel the way I feel about you
48:12She'd want you to feel that
48:15Yeah, she would
48:24I
48:32Love your laugh and your smile and your arts and your passion
48:45So
48:47Maybe we could
48:50Make Creek Falls our home base
48:53You could travel for your projects. I could travel for my projects and
48:59We could get started on a combined list
49:06Number one. Oh, it's like this one's just for me
49:10Find the most beautiful girl in the world
49:13And
49:19Propose to her
49:30Will you marry me
49:39I want to spend the rest of my life
49:42Living our very own life
49:47I think Samantha would like that. I think she would love
50:12Oh

50:25Sets cold in taste. I won't forget
50:29Lights will hold you as you rest
