QWho is the Grey Lady in the painting?
AThe Grey Lady is Cassie's great aunt Elizabeth Merowick from whom Cassie inherited Grey House and remodeled it into the Bed & Breakfast in which George and Gwen now live. The Grey Lady and Grey House got their names, or so the legend goes, because Elizabeth Merowick always wore grey after she was left to languish by her sailor husband, Naval Captain Charles Hamlin. The story goes that Elizabeth kept a light burning in the window for 28 years until it finally went out. The next day, Elizabeth was found dead of a broken heart. However, it was revealed in The Good Witch's Garden that Elizabeth was actually a writer and that Captain Hamlin was merely a fictional character in her book of stories. In The Good Witch's Destiny, Lori discovers that Elizabeth disappeared on her birthday, also 24 October, and was never heard from again, causing the Russell family to fear that the same fate is going to befall Cassie.
AThinking that someone may have broken into Grey House, Jake checks it out, only to see Cassie come walking down the stairs dressed as a flapper. She leads him and the family out to the backyard, which has been lavishly decorated for her Halloween-themed birthday party. Later, after all the guests have donned costumes, Drew performs a magic trick in which he makes the stolen portrait of Elizabeth Merowick appear. He explains that he had Mia's (Dani Kind) restoration evaluated by the museum and that they were so impressed they want to hire her. Martha Tinsdale (Catherine Disher) assures Cassie that she had her husband, the mayor of Middleton, works things sout with Cassie's landlord because the cause of the fire at the Bell, Book & Candle was actually the painter leaving a turpentine-soaked rag in the trash. George informs Drew that the alwyer was able to get his contract nullified and work out an even better deal. Lori presents Cassie was an old book written by Edward Whymark and explains that 'Edward Whymark' is a pseudonym used by Elizabeth Merowick, who ran away with her lover Andrew Whymark to escape her father who didn't feel it appropriate that a woman whould waste her time writing. Brandon and Tara (Ashley Leggat) announce that they set a date for their wedding on June 22nd...two years in the future. In the final scene, Jake tells Cassie that life with her is 'magic', and Cassie says that this is her 'perfect moment' and that she doesn't need magic to know that it will never end.
