And your girlfriend is a...

Ellen.

- How's that going?

- Sort of a wait-and-see.

- Oh, yeah?

- But then I waited and I saw.

I was gonna say.

I have never had a good experience

with an Ellen or a Phil.

- How about with a Mitch?

- Never met a Mitch I didn't like.

Fun. Full of life, you know?

You know what I mean when I say fun?

Like you want to be a part

of Mitch's club.

Am I close?

Close.

He's okay, right?

Yeah. He's...

He's fine.

You give him a big old hug for me.

I'm Claire, by the way.

Drew.

- Nice.

- Same to you.

Please.

I'll let you sleep. Here's your map.

Let me take this.

I can handle this.

Let go.

I am not asleep.

I'm not.

I won't really be able to sleep.

I won't really be able to sleep.

Okay. Ready to go, Drew?

I'm not asleep.

Blue suit.

Losing the business.

Louisville.

I'm not asleep.

We'll go next year.

Come back.

One billion dollars.

Good morning.

And congratulations, Drew.

You've earned your wings

as our ten millionth passenger.

And here is a coupon

for any four-diamond hotel...

in the greater western Kentucky area.

Better move quickly.

Lots of people behind you.

- Well, thank you.

- Absolutely.

And good luck with Ben.

Look, I know

I may never see you again...

but we are intrepid.

We carry on.

Drew!

Rental cars around the corner.

You'll see the signs.

Bluegrass Parkway turns into exit 60B.

Don't forget, 60B.

Okay. Thanks.

You okay to drive?

I'm fine.

Uncle Dale.

I'm in Louisville. Just landed.

I'm on the road.

I have a map.

And I'll be there by 2:00.

I have the blue suit.

Where's 60B?

Sh*t, man.

Oh, man!

Did I miss 60B?

Did I miss 60B?

Did I miss 60B?

Did I miss 60B?

Elizabethtown.

Elizabethtown! Yes!

Elizabethtown! We're in!

Oh, yeah. Okay!

Oh, yeah.

Jessie?

Cuz.

Cuz.

This loss will be met

by a hurricane of love.

Charles Dean,

meet grown-up Drew Baylor.

Drew, it's good to see you.

Thank you. My condolences.

And here's my dad, your Uncle Dale.

Wonderful to see you again.

Well, Drew, this is Mitch's plot.

And it has been in your family

for 272 years.

Now, I've endeavored...

to keep this area here

clear for your daddy.

We're still discussing that issue.

There is a possibility of cremation.

Now, here are some of your daddy's

personal things.

The brown wallet.

And here's his ring from West Point.

Now I don't know how y'all feel

out there in California...

but West Point sure does matter

around here.

It matters a lot.

Even though we now live in Oregon.

Everybody.

This is Mitch's boy from California.

One of the California Baylors.

This is Drew.

And just like your daddy was,

we are all very excited...

about your eight-year triumph
