• Erin Krakow as Elizabeth Thornton
• Kevin McGarry as Nathan Grant
• Chris McNally as Lucas Bouchard

The boys tell Nathan and Bill about the stew situation. They ask for the location and whether either of them actually saw the fire start. The boys say no and apologize.

Bill tells the parents that, as the adults, they might be liable for the damages and encourages them to get a lawyer.

Lucas tries to patch things up with Edie, but she’s not interested. She tells him he’s just like every other politician.

Allie finds out that Ollie is turning 18 and is shocked. There’s so much to do!

Nathan and Bill decide it’s time to bring McGinty in for questioning.

Things are much better on the Gwen front. After Gwen leaves to take Goldie to daycare, Lee tells Rosemary that he wants to turn Culture Lumber into Culture Construction.

Bill and Nathan interview McGinty. They ask, “Did you carry a can into the forest?” He says yes… because he had to bury his cat, Mr. Mittens. He put him in the can to protect him from wildlife.

Allie tells Elizabeth she’s planning a surprise party for Ollie and is thinking circus-themed. Elizabeth immediately says that’s stupid. Naturally, Allie asks Elizabeth to help plan it anyway, and now we’ve got ourselves a party-planning episode.

Allie goes to invite Toby to the party. He’s like, “No… I’M A CRIMINAL!”

Lee finds out about Mr. Mittens and does not feel bad at all about accusing McGinty.

Minnie and the Reverend are nervous. Word is getting out about the kids. They need a lawyer but can’t afford both legal fees and Angela’s schooling.

There’s a town hall meeting about the fire investigation, and it does not go well. But Elizabeth gives a speech about how maybe everything was just an accident and how Benson Hills residents are now part of the Hope Valley community. Everyone loves it.

Lee overhears McGinty on a call with his bank — no loan. McGinty tells Lee he hopes he’s happy. Lee actually feels bad… but not bad enough to apologize.

Lucas announces that he’s running for reelection. He promises Benson Hills will be rebuilt within a year. Rosemary asks how — higher taxes? Lucas says possibly. He could lie and say no, but instead he promises to do whatever it takes to get the community back on its feet. Edie loves it.

It’s party time. Ollie is very surprised, and he loves it. It’s almost perfect, but Toby and Cooper aren’t there. Ollie goes to find them. They show up, Ollie gives a speech, and then Toby and Cooper confess that they started the fire. Mazie helps them feel better by admitting she made mistakes when she was a kid too.

The episode ends with Lee and Rosemary bringing McGinty an apology. They offer to build him a new cabin — not as charity, but as a model home for prospective clients. They also bring him a new kitten.

All is, once again, right in Hope Valley.
