Art Of Falling In Love Full Episode
Transcript
00:00Nate! Oh, you're back in town.
00:05Sorry I'm late. The plane from Boston was delayed as usual.
00:08You're here now, right? That's what matters.
00:10Right. Cool.
00:11So, I made some changes on the plane.
00:13Okay.
00:14Got in touch with the city for the final code inspections.
00:16Okay.
00:17There should be no further delays.
00:18Awesome.
00:19Is that the art for the lobby?
00:20For the whole wall to the entrance to the new pediatric waiting area.
00:22What do you think?
00:23I thought we were going for art that would compliment the modern lines of the building.
00:27No, the board thought she captures a lot of innocence that would connect with younger patients.
00:31Besides, she has a lot of experience.
00:33It's a little juvenile, don't you think?
00:35I mean, I didn't spend all this money on industrial materials to have it covered with clouds and butterflies.
00:40Well, I like to think I've captured the essence of the community in my sketch.
00:44Either way, murals for the patients, not you.
00:49Vanessa Brent, juvenile artist.
00:56Nice to meet you.
00:57I'm sorry if I offended you.
00:59I should get started on the mural.
01:00I have a tango lesson to get to later, and Carlos cannot be kept waiting.
01:10Let's take a look at those revisions.
01:11I'm really curious to see what you came up with.
01:13All right. Sounds good.
01:18Stop.
01:36It's okay. I'm okay.
01:41I tried to do too much today. I'm okay.
02:04This totally feels like old times.
02:08The Creek Falls project came along just the right time.
02:10I needed to get away.
02:12Too many memories of Taylor and I in Boston.
02:16I was sorry to hear that you two split.
02:23This is just not my night.
02:37No.
02:39Hi. Can I have a large orange juice, please?
02:42Thanks.
02:53Um, I'm ready for round two. You want another?
03:01Hey.
03:04How was the tango lesson?
03:07Wonderful.
03:11Would you like to join Wallace and I? Our dart games are actually-
03:14I don't mix business with pleasure.
03:16Nothing good ever comes of that.
03:20I'm sorry that was called for.
03:22I see.
03:25Honestly, I have been feeling quite myself.
03:28I thought I'd stop by for a minute and rehydrate after a big class.
03:32You seem a little bit tired.
03:35Uh, Walson, I'll probably call it a night before too long if you'd like a ride home.
03:38Oh, no, it's all right. I'll just cap.
03:40Hey, you want a dance break later?
03:42Oh, no, I'm-
03:44Yeah?
03:45No, not really. I'm just feeling a little-
03:47Yeah, I'm actually- I'm going to get her home.
03:51Understood? I'm on perfect match if you want to look me up later.
03:59Thank you for the save, but for the record, I can take care of myself.
04:04Duly noted.
04:07Is that ride home still an offer?
04:11Yeah, it'd be my pleasure.
04:20I'm not too far. Just up by the inn.
04:23Yeah, no problem. I know it.
04:25So, aside from being a mural painter and a tango dancer, what else is there to know about Vanessa Brent?
04:33Not much to tell. I'm out on the road a lot, on commissions, so I don't really have a home base.
04:40Although my rabbit keeps me grounded.
04:43Wherever he is, that's home.
04:45What about a home base? Everybody needs a home.
04:51I guess I lost so many people that home base got lost along the way, too.
04:56Yeah, I know the feeling.
04:59There we go.
05:02Whoa, check out that bike.
05:04Well, I could take you for a ride sometime if you wanted.
05:06You have a bike?
05:08Actually, I have that one.
05:12Why is your bike parked outside the inn?
05:14Actually, I kind of own the inn, too.
05:18I thought Iris owned the inn.
05:19I'm her son.
05:21The one who lives in Boston?
05:23Used to live in Boston, yeah.
05:25I had a minor life disruption, so I'm back to regroup and work on the hospital.
05:34So you live here now?
05:37If I owned a place that nice, I would not leave.
05:40Well, thanks.
05:42Thank you so much for the ride.
05:45No problem.
05:47Good night.
05:51Bye.
06:17Now, remission isn't something that we can give guarantees on, but this is what we do know.
06:48I hope I'm not bothering you.
06:53I brought a peace offering.
06:55It's barbecue from my favorite place.
06:57Can I bring it in?
06:59Fortunately, your favorite place's barbecue smells delicious, so I won't send you and your food home.
07:06I'm tired, but I'm also starving.
07:09I guess I'm lucky I caught you hungry.
07:11Lucky is as lucky does.
07:14Nate, meet Lucky.
07:17Does my mom know that you have vermin running loose in the guest house?
07:21He's not a vermin. He's a rabbit.
07:23He's house trained.
07:25What kind of heathen buddy do you think he is?
07:27One with nasty, sharp teeth?
07:29No, he doesn't bite.
07:31He's vegetarian.
07:32Vegan, actually.
07:35The art I create will live on.
07:38I'll live the best.
07:41I can capture a moment in time and someone 20 years from now will get joy from seeing it for the first time.
07:48See, that's exactly how I feel about my builds.
07:51You know, it's like I'm a part of them.
07:55Do you have pictures of any of your buildings?
07:58Yeah, I have a few.
08:05This is from a few months ago. It's an apartment complex.
08:09I love the lines.
08:11Very mature.
08:13I like the materials you used.
08:15It's very modern.
08:39Thank you for choosing me.
08:43See you tomorrow.
08:44Definitely.
08:46Goodnight, mate.
08:49Night.
09:10Shit.
09:25Vanessa?
09:28Vanessa?
09:30You forgot your purse.
09:34Vanessa?
09:38Vanessa?
09:56Hey, you.
09:59Hey, you.
10:02I went out cold, right?
10:04Yeah.
10:07I hate that on a third date.
10:13No more jokes.
10:18It's time to come clean, then.
10:21It's time.
10:24What if I'm not ready?
10:30Then I don't know if this can grow into anything more than a friendship.
10:36Why not?
10:40Look, I've already had a woman in my life with secrets, and it wrecked me.
10:47You're mysterious, and it's intriguing, but you scared me.
10:55I need answers.
10:57I'm just living life on my own terms.
11:00I'm not connecting or sharing your life.
11:02It doesn't feel like living.
11:04It feels like running away.
11:06Fair enough, but it's my life.
11:20Then I'll leave you to it.
11:31Wow.
11:35I can't believe it.
11:37You've really captured the spirit of Creek Falls.
11:40It's peaceful and welcoming, and you're not even finished.
11:44Thanks, Carolyn.
11:45That means a lot to me.
11:56Hey, Carolyn.
11:57Hey.
11:58Hi, Vanessa.
12:00Hi.
12:02Can I talk to you for a minute?
12:04Sure, if you like.
12:06Nice to see you, Nathan.
12:07You too.
12:12Glad to see you back at work.
12:17You really scared me.
12:19I'm sorry.
12:21I wasn't up to talking the other day.
12:24What you saw is a byproduct of the medication I have to take to make sure I can keep working on my list.
12:32So you want me to stop worrying about you?
12:34Yes.
12:37What if I want to spend more time with you?
12:39Well, we can keep having fun together and work on my list.
12:49Well, I did get a peek at that list, and there is something special I think I could help with.
12:55Why don't I pick you up after lunch, and we take the afternoon off?
13:00Sounds like a plan.
13:03Fine.
13:08Right on time.
13:11Yes, being on time can be a bit of a curse, but today it's working for me.
13:16So, are you ready to go?
13:17Pretty much.
13:20So, what's the surprise?
13:23Today I am the one with the secrets.
13:25Now, are you sure you don't need a secret consultant?
13:27Because I have years of experience.
13:31So, I'm guessing there's a car ride in my future.
13:34That is uncanny. How did you do that?
13:37I'm a psychic.
13:40Are we going hiking? Because I have sails on.
13:43Nope, not even close.
13:44Hot air ballooning?
13:45No.
13:46Paris.
13:47You're taking me to Paris?
13:50Okay, now we're going to Paris.
13:53Patience is a virtue.
13:54This test feels like luxury.
13:58Ta-da!
14:05Butterflies!
14:13Look!
14:17Look!
14:40When I was a little girl, my grandma told me that butterflies in the sky were beautiful.
14:45And that butterflies only live for a day.
14:48You know, some butterflies actually live for weeks, even months.
14:53Really?
14:54Yes, indeed.
14:55And monarch butterflies go on these incredible journeys where they migrate for thousands of miles.
15:00That kind of sounds like my journey.
15:03Well, I'm just glad that your journey brought you here.
15:15Oh.
15:23So, do you have any more fun facts about butterflies, Mr. Science?
15:27I do, actually.
15:30Did you know that butterflies are cold-blooded?
15:34They need to bask in the sun in order to be able to fly.
15:38How do you know all this?
15:40I worked here for a few summers to help pay my way through college.
15:44Oh, that's nice.
15:46Yeah, I felt like I was on this path I thought everyone had to be on, you know?
15:51College, career, get married, start a family of my own.
15:56Oh, thank you.
15:59I did not see this big break in the road.
16:02Sounds like you were blindsided.
16:05Maybe. Or maybe I was just paying too much attention to the road ahead.
16:11So focused on checking boxes, I never engaged with my life.
16:18Divorces sort of forced me to pay attention.
16:23And are you paying attention now?
16:27I sure am.
16:35Now, I would like to share with you one of my very favorite things.
16:39I don't know.
16:42How did you? What?
16:46This is a peanut butter and mayo sandwich.
16:50Mayo?
16:51I know.
16:52You're a little kooky, Nate Dalton.
16:54I prefer fun-loving.
16:57Okay.
17:01I know.
17:02Okay, here we go.
17:06It's really good.
17:08It's weird and satisfying.
17:11I invented this when I was eight.
17:13No, you did not. Really?
17:15It caused a stir in my school.
17:21A shooting star.
17:23No question.
17:32Let me guess. You wish to finish your list.
17:37What do you wish for?
17:40For you to be okay.
17:45I want you to be okay. Are you okay?
17:47I'm okay. I told you I could take care of myself.
17:56I just don't think it concerns you.
18:01I want it to concern me.
18:07I'm just not ready, Nate.
18:14You shine brighter than the stars.
18:17And you know your butterflies.
18:22I love that those butterflies made you so happy.
18:26You're freezing. Let's get you home and lay out.
18:29No, I like it out here.
18:32It's peaceful.
18:35Five more minutes?
18:38Five more minutes.
18:57So, what's next?
19:00Riding wild stallions, bareback. What else is on the list?
19:04There's rock climbing.
19:07I know a good place for rocks.
19:09We can go tomorrow. It's Saturday. I'm not working.
19:11I should probably keep working on the mural.
19:14But thank you for a truly special day.
19:18I loved every minute of it.
19:21Well, I will see you for breakfast in the dining room
19:24where I will do my best to convince you to spend the whole day with me.
19:27Sounds good.
19:32Good night.
19:42What do you think? Can we trust him?
19:47I like him too.
19:50Maybe. Just maybe.
19:53We can cross class two items on the list one day.
19:57Maybe.
20:07Smells good. No early risers?
20:10They'll be down in a few minutes.
20:12How was the social? Any good gossip this week?
20:15Hey, is Arthur Goodman still doing the thing with the suspenders and the belt?
20:19Don't make fun of Arthur Goodman.
20:21There's nothing wrong with making sure your pants don't fall.
20:24Sit.
20:27I had a nice visit with Joyce.
20:30Her nephew is coming to visit next month.
20:33Of course he is.
20:35And all my friends want to know how your children's ward is coming along.
20:38Well, it isn't exactly mine.
20:41But you can tell them that I'm drafting the last couple of changes.
20:44They're going in for approvals. Yeah, we're nearly done.
20:47It's all pretty positive.
20:49Great. That's what I assumed.
20:52And how are you and Vanessa?
20:58I'm your mother. I see the way you two look at each other.
21:02She's a lovely person. Share.
21:05Well, uh, the mural is gorgeous.
21:10It's perfect for the kids.
21:13She just, she really seems to care.
21:16You can tell it with every brush stroke.
21:19And the way she teaches the children.
21:24So this is a relationship then?
21:27Uh, I don't know.
21:30She's very private.
21:32I saw her covering up some bandages from some blood tests.
21:36I don't know what's going on with her, but she doesn't want to tell me.
21:41And I can't have another relationship filled with secrets.
21:44Not after Taylor. Vanessa isn't like that.
21:47You two are good for each other. You lift each other up.
21:50Maybe, but what if...
21:52You need to let yourself heal from Taylor.
21:55And know that you and Vanessa are a completely different kind of couple.
22:00I wish people would stop bringing up Taylor.
22:03Who's bringing up Taylor?
22:06At the social?
22:09Sweetheart, I don't know how to say this except to say it.
22:15Joyce heard that Taylor's pregnant.
22:19Taylor?
22:21My, my Taylor? My, my...
22:23My ex-Taylor?
22:26That Taylor, yes.
22:29Nate?
22:32Breathe, honey.
22:33Uh, I'm fine. I'm fine.
22:36I know how much you loved her.
22:38You stuck it out for so many years.
22:40Yeah, I did.
22:43I thought we were till death do we part.
22:46I thought we wanted to have children together.
22:50I guess she just didn't want to have children with me.
22:56You know, sometimes things happen for a reason.
22:59It's only been a few months.
23:01She's already pregnant with somebody's baby?
23:04I would have made a great father.
23:06You will be when the time is right.
23:08Exactly. Never.
23:10Ready to convince me to take the day off, Nate?
23:15I can't do this.
23:17What?
23:18Nate! Nate!
23:23He's angry with someone else, not with you.
23:25Not one day has gone by in these last few weeks that Nate hasn't smiled from ear to ear because of you.
23:31There is no way...
23:32No, there is every way he wouldn't want this.
23:41I don't blame him.
23:56Sam...
24:03I have done it all.
24:06I've done the silly things on your list.
24:09I have done the dangerous things on the list.
24:15But the last two, Sam...
24:17To love, and be loved, and to get married...
24:23I don't know.
24:25I have opened up my heart.
24:29You know how hard it is for me to do that.
24:33But I really try.
24:36The last two things on the list...
24:39I don't know if I have it in me.
24:41It's just...
24:44I don't know.
24:54I am losing faith.
24:57I have fought so hard.
25:01And I've done all the treatments.
25:05And I have poured my heart on countless murals across the country.
25:11And I painted you in them as an angel.
25:14Because I felt you with me.
25:22I am tired.
25:24I am tired to the bone.
25:26I just...
25:28I just need to rest.
25:30Please adjust.
25:32I need to...
25:33I need to rest.
25:36I...
25:56You have knocked it out of the park, Vanessa.
26:01This mural is ten times more amazing than I thought it would be.
26:05I can't wait to share this with everyone at the opening gala.
26:08Thanks, Wallace.
26:12So...
26:14You think you'll finish in time?
26:16I always do.
26:19Excellent.
26:22You sealed a deal to remodel a hospital in Vermont.
26:26And they asked if you'd be interested in painting a mural for them.
26:34How are you?
26:35You bet.
26:37I love the state of Vermont.
26:38And I've always wanted to work on a project there.
26:40And all that ice cream.
26:44Well, they'll find you a place to live, and they got a good budget.
26:47Great.
26:48The more I get, the more I can give back.
26:54I understand supporting a cause and everything, but...
26:57Can I ask?
26:59I mean, how you living?
27:01You need money to live, too, right?
27:04I have my own means.
27:08And art raises the spirits, no matter how dire your situation.
27:13I focus on serene colors so that the kids that come in here can feel comfort and light.
27:20They need to feel the peace and the hope that art can inspire.
27:25I want my art to make you feel better without you even knowing why.
27:32I should stop chatting and keep painting if I'm going to finish this on time for the gala.
27:37Let the Vermont Hospital know you agreed to do their mural.
27:39Thanks, Wallace.
27:44They'll be over the moon.
27:52Climbing is such a workout.
27:54I'm feeling muscles I never even knew I had.
27:57There's a real color in your cheeks.
28:00I'm glad to see my son's absence isn't a drain on you.
28:05It's hurting me more than I want to admit, Iris.
28:09I can't wallow in it. I have to finish the mural in time for the gala.
28:13Will you stay after the gala?
28:16I don't think so.
28:17I got a job in Vermont.
28:19I'll be painting the mural of the hospital there.
28:22Wallace is project manager.
28:24You're moving to Vermont?
28:26Mm-hmm.
28:28All the fresh air and the fresh dairy. It'll be fun.
28:32All good points, but will you tell Nate?
28:36Well, he's not exactly around to tell.
28:39I haven't seen him. Have you?
28:42His boss called him back on a project up in Boston that was erupting like a volcano.
28:47Apparently he's been spending too much time here and the other projects suffered.
28:51Well, that's that.
28:54I'm glad he's getting his priorities in order.
28:58You are exactly what he needs right now.
29:01If he had said that himself, I'd be inclined to believe it.
29:06Please talk to him, Vanessa.
29:11I'm going to miss you, Iris.
29:15I should go.
29:17I'll talk to you later.
29:27So he just left for Boston.
29:30I still can't believe he just left.
29:32Well, his boss needed him back on a project, apparently.
29:34Sure, his work.
29:37He came back for the weekend, right?
29:40You didn't hear me. Nate left, period.
29:46There you go, buddy.
29:47Sorry, I dropped it.
29:49That's okay.
29:51I noticed you were putting a lot of work into your painting today.
29:55I like seeing that kind of effort.
29:57I hope to be as good as you one day.
30:00Well, I think that you can do whatever you set your mind to, Reese.
30:07I'm waiting.
30:09Waiting for what?
30:11For you to say that you'll fight for him.
30:13I've done enough fighting for my life.
30:15In my life.
30:17I'm kind of over it.
30:19But I saw the way he looked at you the other day when he dropped by and he barely knew you then.
30:23Will you at least just tell him about your move to Vermont?
30:27I don't want you to leave, Vanessa.
30:31Oh, Sophia, you have so many great friends here.
30:35Lifelong friends.
30:36They'll always have your back.
30:39Who will have your back?
30:44Samantha.
30:46Always Samantha.
30:47Who's Samantha?
30:51She's someone who loved me and was always there for me.
31:00Excuse me.
31:20Nothing came up on your MRI.
31:22And your blood work markers look really good.
31:27Looks like you're just going to need routine blood work once a year.
31:30Once a year?
31:32Oh, wow.
31:35So does that mean I'm officially in remission?
31:37It looks that way.
31:38You're a very lucky girl.
31:41I know.
31:43Every morning I wake up, I'm grateful I'm still here.
31:46Well, it's been a long journey, but you beat the odds.
31:50And your diligence with the drug regime has really paid off.
31:53So no more pills?
31:55No more pills.
31:56Which means no more side effects.
32:02Good luck, Vanessa.
32:04Go live your life to the fullest.
32:05I will.
32:06Okay.
32:19Lucky, you are looking at a future top chef.
32:22Or maybe a future Nobel Peace Prize winner.
32:29Future?
32:33I haven't had an actual future in years.
32:41Think of all the murals I can paint now.
32:43And think of all the new adventures I can have.
32:46I can climb mountains and I can see all the great art of the world.
32:50I can sail the seven seas.
32:55I'm not sure if I like sailing.
32:57Well, we'll see.
33:03Ready for the next adventure, Lucky?
33:06I'll take that as a yes.
33:23Thanks for calling.
33:25I was feeling a little at loose ends with myself with Nate being gone again.
33:28Yeah.
33:30I'm glad we can go to the gala together.
33:32Me too.
33:34Life's too short to wait for anyone.
33:37You know it.
33:39You know what we should do?
33:41What?
33:42We should stay up all night and watch the sunrise.
33:45Okay, but I need a favor.
33:47Okay.
33:49Can you teach me how to tango?
33:50Can you?
33:51I can teach you.
33:52Do you mind?
33:53No.
33:54Okay, all right.
33:55We're on.
33:57All right, you ready?
34:00Yeah.
34:01Say nice.
34:07I love, love, love, love, love it.
34:10The colors, the style, the images.
34:12This is Creek Falls.
34:14And you are giving hope to everyone who walks through these doors for care.
34:18It's extraordinary.
34:20Thanks, Carolyn.
34:21You are now appointed my number one art reviewer.
34:24I'm not trying to inflate your ego.
34:26I'm truly blown away.
34:28You're going to make me blush.
34:30On another note, the kids are going to miss you terribly.
34:34I'm going to miss them too.
34:36And I'll miss you.
34:38Becoming friends with you has been one of the best parts about living here.
34:41And there are a lot of good things about living here.
34:43Oh, you're going to make me blush.
34:45I'll try to swing by and visit the kids before I go.
34:50Any chance you could make Creek Falls your home base?
34:54You could still go and paint, travel, have big adventures, but just call this place home?
35:01I love Creek Falls, but I just have to follow my path.
35:07I have to be open to where the road, my road, will take me.
35:12And Nate?
35:15You don't see a path that leads you back to him?
35:18No, unfortunately not.
35:21He's still in Boston.
35:23I haven't heard from him.
35:25Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie. That's really unlike him.
35:28I was blindsided. I left my heart out there.
35:33Open.
35:35I'm so confused about men now.
35:37Don't let Nate discourage you.
35:40There are a lot of decent guys. There is someone for you.
35:45You're right. I'll meet my soulmate out on the open road.
35:48That's very profound.
35:50But tonight we celebrate.
35:56I'm going to get us more champagne.
36:03Vanessa.
36:05Wallace.
36:06You'll be pleased to know that all your laboring has paid off.
36:09Everyone loves the mural.
36:13You should be proud.
36:15Thank you. I am really proud of my work.
36:19But I'm also really proud to be a part of this journey.
36:23It's quite an amazing journey.
36:26Yeah. I'm very grateful.
36:36I came to dance.
36:38I would love to dance.
36:41You know, you still owe me that tennis.
36:43I do. I do.
36:44Yeah, you do.
36:45You're a very good dancer.
36:51Is that me?
36:52Nate!
37:01Hey.
37:02Hey, Wallace.
37:03Nate?
37:06Excuse me.
37:08The mural is spectacular.
37:12Congratulations.
37:13Thanks.
37:18There's your signature angel.
37:22She's always there when someone needs strength.
37:36Your work is so famous.
37:38Why don't you just sign it with your own name?
37:41I don't paint murals in hospitals for attention needs.
37:45I don't do it for money.
37:48I do it to comfort the patients and their families and caregivers.
37:52To give them hope when there's darkness.
37:55To remind them that they're loved and they're not alone.
38:06So, you're leaving?
38:09Tomorrow.
38:17I'm going to go find Carol.
38:19No, please, Vanessa.
38:22I know I don't deserve it after my little vanishing act,
38:26but I would love the opportunity to give you an explanation.
38:36Okay.
38:38Okay.
38:44When I found out Taylor was pregnant,
38:47it really messed me up.
38:53I had been wanting a family for so long,
38:57and she had been resistant to that idea.
39:01And I realize now that she just didn't want to have a family with me.
39:10And I had to come to terms with that.
39:14I wasn't the right person for her.
39:17But more importantly, she wasn't the right person for me, either.
39:23Vanessa, you have opened me up to a whole new world.
39:29You have opened me up to living life fully.
39:34And my life doesn't feel full without you in it.
39:39You are my person, Vanessa.
39:45Look, I hear you.
39:50I just don't think I'm that important to you.
39:54Nate, I let you in and you just left without an explanation.
39:57You left me here alone.
39:58I made a mistake. I understand that.
40:01I was just so confused about the list and the pills.
40:04But while I was away,
40:06I came to understand that it doesn't matter how much time we have,
40:11just that we get to spend it together.
40:18Time is so precious.
40:22I just don't know if I want to invest it in someone who's broken my trust.
40:34I'm sorry, Nate.
40:52It's open!
40:59Hey, Vanessa.
41:02Mind if I come in?
41:04Well, you own the place, so sure.
41:18Can we sit?
41:21Sure.
41:42So, uh...
41:44Is it quite a big mural that you're painting in Vermont?
41:51Very big.
41:52Wow.
41:54Sounds... tough.
42:04How've you been?
42:06Fine.
42:08My mom mentioned that you'd gotten some news.
42:14Yeah. Some really good news.
42:17You just won't let me in.
42:22I can see how, from your perspective, that seems true.
42:30But I was only trying to protect myself.
42:34And Samantha.
42:37Who is Samantha?
42:40I've heard you mention her.
42:42Was she your grandmother?
42:45No, she's not my grandmother.
42:48She's my guardian angel.
42:51And I am her life.
42:55It's okay.
42:57It's okay.
42:59Samantha.
43:01I miss you so much.
43:05It's okay.
43:10She knew her disease wasn't curable.
43:15She knew her disease wasn't curable.
43:19And yet she spent all her strength trying to help me.
43:25But that's the strength I see in you every day.
43:29That's the life that we see in your murals.
43:35After... after she died,
43:39I started to get better, and I went into remission.
43:43Your pills.
43:45I thought that you were dying,
43:48and that's what you couldn't share with me.
43:50No, no.
43:52The pills were to help me rebuild my immune system
43:55after years of treatments.
43:58I was in remission, but the doctors weren't ready
44:00to get me clean both hulls.
44:04That's... that's the news I got yesterday.
44:09And I wasn't here to share that with you.
44:15I'm so sorry.
44:17It's okay.
44:20There's something else that I haven't shared.
44:26When we first met,
44:28I couldn't place where I'd seen your artwork before.
44:32I went online and did some searching,
44:34but none of it really connected.
44:39Then at the gala, I saw your mural,
44:44and it clicked.
44:49My father was at a hospital in Delaware.
44:54He did a mural there.
44:57It must have been one of your first.
45:00He mentioned it several times,
45:02and I remember wheeling him back to his ward one time.
45:07He pointed out the angel in the mural.
45:11Your angel gave my father peace and tranquility
45:16in his final hours.
45:20She gave me peace.
45:23So you and I, we've been close,
45:26even though we've never met.
45:30I'm the painter, but Sam was always the angel.
45:34Well, she brought us together, so...
45:37so she's my angel, too.
45:39Yeah. Yeah.
45:42I was so scared.
45:44You started working through your list.
45:48The closer we got,
45:50the more the idea of you dying...
45:54it engulfed me.
45:56I didn't know how to feel,
45:59but now I know.
46:02I know that I have fallen completely in love with you
46:06and your spirit.
46:09You've changed how I look at life
46:12and how precious our moments are here.
46:15Life's short.
46:17I don't want to waste any more time without you.
46:21Nate, I missed you so much.
46:26I missed you, too.
46:34I'm yours, if you'll have me.
46:37Having you here right now,
46:40hearing what you're saying,
46:42it's giving me more strength than you could possibly imagine.
46:46But...
46:48don't disappear on me again, please.
46:51I promise.
46:53I didn't mean to run away on you.
46:55My past and letting go of old dreams
46:58so that I could restart
47:01and make new ones
47:03to look forward to the future.
47:08Yeah.
47:10The future.
47:15Sam wrote the bucket list.
47:19All the items on the list
47:21are things that she wanted for me.
47:24And I feel sad doing them because she...
47:27she never could.
47:29She wouldn't want you to feel sad.
47:33It's especially the last two.
47:36To fall in love and...
47:39get married.
47:41They break me because...
47:45she never got to meet her person.
47:48Never got to feel the way I feel about you.
47:53But she'd want you to feel that.
47:57Yeah.
47:58Yeah, she would.
48:01Yeah.
48:12I love you.
48:14I love your laugh and your smile
48:17and your art and your passion.
48:19I love you, too.
48:22I love you, too.
48:27So...
48:29maybe we could...
48:32make Creek Falls our home base.
48:35You could travel for your projects.
48:37I could travel for my projects.
48:40And we could get started on a combined list.
48:45What?
48:47Number one.
48:49Oh, looks like this one's just for me.
48:52Find the most beautiful girl in the world...
49:00and propose to her.
49:12Will you marry me?
49:14Yes!
49:20I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
49:24Living our very own best.
49:29I think Samantha would like that.
49:31I think she would love that.
49:59I love you.
50:24You know, with all the life I've seen come through these doors
50:27of weddings and christenings,
50:29celebration of family and friends,
50:32I have never seen so much love between two people.
50:36I know my John could see that, too.
50:53You may be seated.
50:58As tokens of their marriage,
51:00Nate and Vanessa have selected these rings.
51:06Nate, as you place this ring on Vanessa's finger,
51:10please repeat this vow.
51:12With this ring, I thee wed and pledge my love.
51:17With this ring, I thee wed...
51:21and pledge my love.
51:24Vanessa, as you place this ring on Nate's finger,
51:28please repeat this vow.
51:30With this ring, I thee wed and pledge my love.
51:35With this ring, I thee wed and pledge my love.
51:42Before these witnesses, I pronounce you, Nate,
51:45and you, Vanessa, husband and wife.
51:48You may kiss the bride.
