Episode 4 Synopsis

Nudged by the animals, the humans stretch outside their comfort zones towards connection with others. Rachel meets Lucky walking his human Wally to the park and talks their ears off. Lucky listens. Rachel gets an idea.

Newly divorced, George ventures out seeking a special breed—others who share his passion—and finds a friend. When Rachel arrives with an offering, Wally takes a chance, spurred on by Lucky. Wounded, transformed, Kal takes another journey, into loving arms.

The animals gather once more, reminding us about what could be possible if we make choices in our lives. If we at least try.
