Maurice (Barry Corbin) is determined to transform Cicely into the "New Riviera," and to that end, cozies up to a pair of visiting Japanese businessmen who plan to build a local golf resort. Joel (Rob Morrow) is swept up in Maurice's ambitions, hoping to land a cushy job as the resort's resident physician. Meanwhile, the pregnant Shelly (Cynthia Geary) finally gets Holling (John Cullum) to propose -- but will he go through with the wedding knowing what he knows about the average lifespan of the women in his family? As a bonus, we learn that the enigmatic Chris (John Corbett) is an ordained minister...sort of.
