We see Nick, Brooke and the kids walking toward a marina. Nick has donned his Captains hat and Brook looks like she's enjoying the fresh air and sunshine.
B: I should have known you would be taking us out to sea (laughs Brooke).
H: Are we going to go on a boat Uncle Nick?
N: Arrr matie, that we is.
Hope laughs: You're so silly.
B: So where are we headed today Captain?
Nick begins to sing: "Twenty-six miles across the sea, Santa Catalina is awaitin' for me."
B: The Santa Catalina Islands?
N: Avalon, to be more precise my fair maiden.
He bows and takes her hand. Brooke blushes.
B: Are we going on one of the cruises?
N: No, ma'lady. I have charted a vessel for the occasion. In fact, I think that is our boat there (as he points to a schooner anchored nearby).
Hope is all excited.
H: Oh Nick that's the most beautiful boat I ever saw!
Nick stoops to pick talk to her.
N: I picked it out just for you.
Hope giggles as Brooke looks on appreciatively.
Back at Marone Manor:
Jackie has left Bridgette and Oscar alone in the living room. Bridgette nervously wrings her hands while she talks to Oscar.
B: Oscar, I'm so sorry you had to find out this way.
O: So am I.
B: I wanted to tell, you, but I didn't have the right words.
O: You could have started "Dear John." I would have gotten the idea.
B: It's just after everything that happened between us in Copenhagen, I wasn't sure how you would take this..or
O: Or what?
B: What you would think of me.
O: One of the things that we had going for us, was that we were always honest with one another. What happened?
B: Maybe we were a little too honest.
O: meaning?
B: After Copenhagen, and me letting out my feelings about Ridge, I was a little embarrassed.
O: I told you then I forgave you. I knew you were under a lot of pressure. You were away from your family for the first time, in a strange place and under a heavy schedule with the med program and internship. I was the only person you knew and I wasn't always there for you.
B: Maybe I didn't want you to forgive me. I don't know, it was all so confusing. that was why I had to get away, come back home.
O: And meet up with Nick and live happily ever after without a word to me?
B: It wasn't like that. Nick was my friend. He helped me sort out my feelings and get past them.
O: I thought that was your fiance's role? And I am referring to me, NOT Nick.
B: I'm sorry, I never meant to hurt you.
O: I love you Bridgette and always have. Can you honestly tell me that all the feelings you had for me just simply went away?
Bridgette just sits looking sad.
Out at Sea:
We see Nick and Brooke at the bow of the boat. Nick is holding RJ and Hope is holding Brooke's hand as they feel the wind in their faces.
H: This is fun.
Nick smiles: You feel the mist from the ocean?
H: Yes.
N: That's the magic mists that shroud the island of Avalon.
H (puzzled): What does shroud mean?
N: It means "to hide away".
H: Why are the islands hiding Uncle Nick?
Nick looks at Brooke and kneels down to Hope.
N: Legend has it that the island was inhabited by beautiful women with mystical powers. When they became threatened by people living on the mainland, they shrouded their islands in a magical mist to eternally protect them. Thus the mystery of Avalon began.
Hope scrunches up her face and looks at Brooke.
H: Mommy is that true?
B: Would you doubt the word of a sea captain?
Hope looks at Nick and shakes her head.
N: Things aren't like they were before on Avalon. Times have changed and their are villages now on the islands. But I'm hoping that bringing the two most beautiful women back to the island will help her regain some of her magic.
Hope just beams and Brooke's eyes sparkle.
We cut to the back of the boat and see the ship's name, "Hope's Destiny" as she heads into the mists.
B: I should have known you would be taking us out to sea (laughs Brooke).
H: Are we going to go on a boat Uncle Nick?
N: Arrr matie, that we is.
