Katherine is on the beach with Thomas, where he begs her to run and not look back. He is ready to die for what he did and does not hold against her emerging into his life. When she leaves, she hears the shot and cannot stop sobbing.

She can’t stop thinking about Thomas, reliving the kiss and the sound of the gun. Then, she goes to the gun on her mantle, boxing it up.

Noah has been waiting for Alice. He left her because he thought if she got to know him, she wouldn’t want to, and now she doesn’t want to because of what he did.

Casey is back in town, and it’s a good reason for Alice to give Noah the cold shoulder. Alice asks Casey to take care of the land, and the reaction is strange.

Things are falling apart at home, Alice tells Elliot.

Sam visits Del to tell her he’s considering getting another horse and wanted her help. He also wanted to get over the silent treatment, but that’s OK. She tells him she signed the papers giving the land to the Goodwins and she thinks he’s happy. He’s happy she’s happy.

Alice wonders if the only reason she kept going back in the pond is to see she’s the reason for the rift. Elliot reminds her that Kat did come back, and she won’t have to wait too long for the details.

She goes back. Elliot says it’s been a year. He finished college, and he’s leaving. He hasn’t spoken to Kat for a while, and Del is gone. She’s in North Carolina for a few weeks. Maybe the pond sent her back to make amends. No, it has to be more! Just then, Kat knocks on the door, and Elliot shoves Alice into a closed room.

Present-day Kat is telling Elliot what happened with Thomas. He’s fascinated with the coins, and she’s like, uh, it’s not about the coins. She really tries to fix things but she just ends up breaking them.

When Kat visits Elliot, Alice is listening to their conversation as Kat says she’s lost and thinks she’s a terrible mother. Kat gives Elliot a plane ticket for Del and a photo of Alice, but he won’t be here. But his dad is here. Kat is shocked to see him, and she asks him to give her the ticket and photo. We can guess how that went.

Victor tells Elliot he’ll never escape this place. It’s in his blood. He’ll see.

Alice leaves without saying goodbye to him, but says it out loud to herself.

Del is having second thoughts, but she won’t budge on a loan or anything like that.

Alice visits Elliot and thanks him for telling Kat she’d be a good mom. She wonders aloud about what happened the airline ticket until she spots his notebook with the Finn Factor.

Jacob fell in the pond going after Finn, but Finn was going after Kat. But he wound back in the present, so Elliot started thinking that as long as they travel with a Landry, they can travel too.

He’s trying to figure out the way it works. He’s discovered that people can go back but never ahead, which was why the attempts from the past forward have been unsuccessful.

He and Alice go to the pond and jump. The pond takes Elliot and Alice. He’s like, WTF was that?? Do you have to do that every time?? It’s like being sucked into the void! He’s absolutely thrilled.

Kat visits the cemetery looking for Thomas. She sees Elijah, Rebecca, and Susana. The painting was by Susana! The mark on her grave is the same as that on the painting.

Elliot freaks out when he sees Colton’s truck and Jacob’s bike. He doesn’t think he can do this. And then he sees Colton. Alice urges him to go say hello.

Colton offers Elliot a job. He’s thinking of running electricity to the barn where Elliot stays. Colton is doing it to make Elliot feel more at home. He practically breaks down in tears. Now Elliot knows that he put his own electricity in the barn.

Sam got a horse, and it gets along with Stormy very well. She apologizes to him for her theatrics when he offered her the check.

Colton explains how important it is to provide people with a place to call their own. With Elliot’s home life, it’s even more important. Working on the barn with him has been one of the most rewarding things he’s ever done, but he’ll never forget it.

He wants to cherish this last year together with the kids before they graduate. He’ll be cheering loud and hard from the front row. Elliot can’t resist almost telling Colton not to do something, but he pivots.

Kat looks at the painting with a mirror and goes to the stone in the fireplace. Inside is her book. The Founding of Port Haven. It’s dedicated to Kat. She wants Kat to tell her story. The missing page from the almanac is there.

Alice and Elliot watch the party that night. Elliot makes a noise, and they have to run off. But behind Elliot and Alice is another hazy figure. Why does it look like Thomas to me? Desperation, that’s why.

When they return home, Elliot pulls the desk apart and finds the ticket and letter. It was never delivered and stuck in that drawer forever. This is why the pond kept sending her back. They can make this right.

Del is looking in the mirror, talking with Colton. She’s not ready to let him go. But she doesn’t have to let him go to invite someone else into her world.

Alice calls Kat and Del together to show them the letter. They make up and years worth of misunderstandings are washed away.

Casey comes by the house looking for Del. Around her neck, she wears a large diamond engagement ring.

Purchasing the land is no longer tenable. Her dad is sorry, but they have to tear up the agreement.

Kat is so embarrassed that Alice saw her at her worst when she visited Elliot. It made Alice appreciate her even more.

Alice wonders if Kat has any photos of Casey.

The coins are worth a small fortune, so their financial problems are solved. Sam is also in Colton’s chair.

Del wants to talk with Sam. She’s glad he’s her neighbor. She likes knowing he’s next door. She likes knowing him.

Kat shows Elliot Susana’s book. He tells her about his time travel. He finally understands what she went through last year. He wanted to do the same thing. He wants her to choose him. She needs his words to sink in. Is that OK?

Kat goes to the pond. She imagines Thomas behind her. She would have loved him had he lived. And then Jacob pops up behind her from the pond.

Alice recognizes the ring on Casey because it’s her ring from Kat and Brady.

Casey is Alice’s kid, isn’t she?

Elliot is at home, looking at the wall while imagining both his dad and Colton behind him. He begins tearing the wall down.

Elijah and Susana encouraged Jacob to come. Even Thomas encouraged him to come. No, she was there when Thomas died. Thomas is alive! He managed to procure armor, and it saved his life.

Jacob imagines himself running happily out of the house. She wishes dad was here to see this, and he is because he’s a time traveler.

The little boy who was with the old lady by the pond wasn’t Jacob. It was Colton.
