With Felix by her side helping her move, Felicity is in Halifax starting medical school. Things are not going well as she is the only female in the class, with her professors trying to dissuade her from continuing. Off in the distance, Felicity and Felix spot Gus Pike. Ever since Gus left Avonlea to return to being a sailor, Felicity and Gus have not seen each other, nor have they made a recent commitment to each other about a future between the two. Although Felicity still has feelings for Gus, she is reluctant to speak to him as it appears that he is courting another woman. Meanwhile, a seemingly delusional beggar flower woman on the street named Eliza recognizes an artifact on Gus' possession that she sees as belonging to Ezekiel Crane. Gus suspects that she has a connection to his past, perhaps she even being his mother, despite Gus being told that his mother, also named Eliza, is buried at a grave-site in Avonlea.
