Peyton takes her baby and promises to love her forever, and she, Lucas and Sawyer are all a happy, crying, smiling, kissing, loving family.  Karen makes the rounds, telling Lucas and Peyton how proud she is of them.  Karen and her son share a sweet moment on the front porch steps reminiscing about their time in Tree Hill together.
       
Now that the Peyton drama is over for the episode, it's time to focus on the other characters.  Nathan goes back to work for the Chiefs, but when he shows up his locker is empty.  He returns home and tells Haley to put on a nice dress so the two of them and Jamie can go out to dinner in Charlotte.  He tells her that he's not on the Chiefs and she starts to cry.

Those tears turn into tears of joy when he tells her they need to go to Charlotte because he's the newest point guard for the Charlotte Bobcats, a professional NBA team.  He got called up, and all three of us cry (Nathan, Haley and me).

Later that day Mouth is ready to go on the air when he gets a last minute change to the report which excites him.  In the Scott home, Nathan, Haley and Jamie sit down to watch the sports update together.  Mouth slowly reveals the news that the Charlotte Bobcats picked up Nathan Scott and he tells Jamie to hug his dad through the TV.  Jamie slowly turns around and erupts in joy.  I'm getting soft in my old age, because that's the second time this storyline made me cry.

San, who isn't dead yet, wanders around town like a ghost, winding up at Whitey's cabin.  Whitey's back!  He's out with his horse and when he sees Dan, he's ready to get his shotgun before Dan begs him to talk.  Inside, Whitey lays out coffee, cookies and a gun.  Well played, old man.  Whitey is already planning Dan's death, saying that he bought the gun with the specific goal of shooting Dan.

Dan gets nostalgic, remembering when he refused to play in the state championship back in high school, and he pinpoints that as the moment his whole life went wrong. Dan then apologizes for everything he's ever done since that day, including killing Keith.
