He decides he's just going to join them despite the fact that it also means he's going to be spending Christmas with his ex-wife and her new fiancé. He's not thrilled.

So he heads down to Atlanta with his kids, Haley and James. Alicia is bringing her friend April and James is bringing his buddy Bobby. It's gonna be a PARTY! When Bobby lands in Atlanta, he goes to this bar and meets a woman named Harmony Davis and then proceeds to get super drunk. He shows up at his ex-wife Alicia's house and crashes. The next day, Alicia surprises Billy and her fiancé Chris by bringing them both to a dance class. Luckily for Billy, Harmony is there, so he sticks around and scores a dinner date.

Billy starts being nice and that starts freaking Chris out. Maybe Alicia is falling for Billy again. To make matters worse, the kids' flights keep getting cancelled.

He goes out to an art museum with Harmony and has a great time and they end up kissingggggg. He ends up inviting her to Christmas dinner...at his ex-wife's house.

The kids FINALLY get there and turns out Haley is dating Bobby. What a twist.

Billy makes up with his son who he's had a rocky relationship with since the divorce.

They all sit down for dinner as one family and Billy opens up his phone to delete the wedding picture he had on his phone of him and Alicia.

Ryan joins us this week to head back to the pond for another episode of The Way Home.

Alice is about to graduate high school; Kat and Elliot dream of the next steps for their relationship; Del realizes she will soon be an empty-nester again.

April 19, 2026 | Hallmark Channel

• Chyler Leigh as Kat Landry
• Evan Williams as Elliot Augustine
• Sadie Laflamme as Alice Dhawan
• Andie MacDowell as Del Landry

We start in "the future". Someone has their hand in the pond...It's Kat. In fact, they're all there. Kat, Alice, Del. They say they gotta go see the "I do".

Cut back to the present, and Kat, Elliot, and Alice all jump in the pond together to try to find his mom while Sam watches from behind a tree. They get out of the water and they see baby Elliot there in a crib with the letter his mom wrote. They suspect that she jumped in the pond but she would've needed a Landry in order to time travel.

Meanwhile, Jacob is missing. Apparently he's at the bus stop, so she rushes to stop him from leaving.

So they bring the basket with Elliot and put him on the porch of a young Del and Colton, but they don't seem surprised. Adult Elliot is like why aren't they surprised by this?

Del stops the bus and Jacob is like I need to go. I need to see if I can make a life here on my own. She says fine, I'm not gonna fight to keep you if you don't want to be kept.

7 months later - Alice is in a field playing a guitar. Kat finds her and is like it's time to go! She graduates in 2 days! Elliot is talking to Del and updates her on planning the perfect proposal for Kat. But Del is busy digging random holes. She's looking for...something.

One night, Elliot wakes up from a crazy dream. He goes downstairs to grab that clock and the clock suddenly starts making music.

Del finds what she's looking for. It's a tin bucket full of trinkets. She's interrupted from going through it by a package from Jacob. It's for Alice. He's in Toronto and he's sent a couple of books for her. They're disappointed there's no info about what he's doing there.

They all go to a graduation party together and Alice sings the song she and her grandpa sang together back in the day.

The next day, it's graduation day. They throw a little family party. Del shares a letter she found in the bucket and realized that she probably made Kat mad by not reading it to her when she graduated.

Later, Del hears Tainted Love and it causes the audio of a memory to come rushing back and it doesn't sound great.

Alice goes to hang out with Max Goodwin who is apparently her best friend. They get into a little argument and she goes to grab her stuff and she sees his dad watching some old reels from the '20s. She goes in and he leaves and she sees Fern Landry dancing when suddenly she sees her mom come into the shot and pull her away. WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!

So she steals the reel and brings it back to show Kat and Elliot. It becomes clear that Kat is going to be going back to 1925 and this reminds her of something old Fern said... 65 in 25. 25 could be 1925. 65 could be the age of Elliot's mom.

Alice goes to dig a hole to put her own box in the ground but finds a suitcase underground. It belongs to Tessa, Elliot's mom.

So Kat and Elliot decide to jump but the pond doesn't take Elliot. So Alice jumps in after her. When she comes out, she sees old Fern. But when Kat gets out, she sees young Fern. UH OH!
