601
Thanks, Edie.

602
Is there anything I can do?

603
No.

604
- Hey.
- Hey.

605
How's Bongo doing?

606
I'm, uh, just waiting to see if they'll have to operate.

607
Oh, god.

608
I-I... I stopped and I got this...

609
I am just so sorry for this.

610
I'm really sorry I snapped¹ at you. I was ju so --

611
Oh, no, it's okay.

612
Good news.

613
We won't have to do surgery.

614
Oh, that's great.

615
We've given Bongo something to help pass the earring².

616
When he does, would you like us to retrieve³ it for you?

617
I'm going to say no.

618
Okay. You should be able to take him home in about an hour.

619
You must be so relieved.

620
I'm sorry. I was just really worried.

621
Well, it was your dog. I get it.

622
Actually, he was my wife's dog, and, uh...

623
one of the last things she said to me in the hospital before she died

624
was to be sure I looked after him,

625
and, um, I promised her I would.

626
And just like that,Susan could suddenly see something she'd never seen before.

627
He, uh, meant so much to her.

628
Mike Delfino was still in love with his late wife.

629
And if, uh, something had happened, I would have felt like I had failed her.

630
I know that sounds stupid, but I...

631
and she knew right then neither she nor Edie would be laying claim to his heart anytime soon.

632
No, it doesn't. Not at all.

633
So she decided⁴, for now,

634
she could settle for just being his friend.

635
This is for you. Well, for Bongo.

636
You give it to him.

637
Yes. As I look back at the world I left behind,

638
it's all so clear to me:

639
the beauty that waits to be unveiled,

640
the mysteries that long to be uncovered.

641
But people so rarely stop to take a look,

642
they just keep moving.

643
It's a shame really,

644
there's so much to see.
