I think it's over, right?
Does that count?
Yes.
Yes. I'm writing it down. We're all very excited.
It's been a great day.
Thank you so much for everything you've done for the station.

Look at Bridget,
lighting up the stage with her radiant smile.
She is a winner.
PBS Burlington is also smiling.
You know, Mary is also a winner.
It's such a joy to paint.
They both look great.
And another great thing about PBS Burlington is--
Bridget's generosity,
which kind of puts us all to shame.
It's an honor for me to be up here painting
someone who bid so much more than anyone else.
Thank you, Bridget.
And thank you to Mary. I am so grateful.
You know, she hasn't worked in eight years, so her bid
is actually a higher percentage of net worth,
which, you know, feels like the true barometer.
Bridget, she's not going to be able
to visit her grandkids this year.
Can't afford it, right?
So it's a little scary how much this means to her.
That's-- That's so sad.
But, you know, Mary had to turn off her heat.
- I'll turn off your heat. - You never turned it on.
- Never tried to. - Done.
I was already done.
How much do we raise?
Almost $8,000.
How much do we need?
- A little less than $300,000. - Ah.
Mary, this is for you.
I call it "Rich in Spirit."
I've always wanted a laser.
Bridget, are you ready?
This is for you.
I call it "Mighty Mount Mansfield."
On an early, surprisingly chilly April morning.

Can you see it?
Why was I smiling that whole time?
That's just the same mountain you always paint.
That doesn't look anything like me.
It's the same painting as Valentine's Day Season 8.

That is... because, um...
Carl didn't want to ruin the surprise.
Yes, you both are actually getting two paintings.
Yeah, a portrait from me and one of Carl's incredible landscapes.
We just didn't want either of you to not get a Nargle.
He was supposed to paint my portrait.
I spent my snack allowance for the next eight years.
I know, Bridget, but did you hear what Ambrosia said?
You're going to get a portrait by her,
as well as this painting of Mighty Mount Mansfield.
And...

Another $20. Just... here you go.
Which brings us to $74, and you can head over to craft service

Good memory, yeah.
Great memory.

- Yeah, it's a tough day. - I'll be brief.
I recently spoke with Carl about showing at Burlington.
Everything was burned in the fire.
Which means any surviving Nargles would be quite valuable.
The Burlington Museum of Art cannot be a complete collection
of Vermont Beaux-Arts without at least one Nargle,
and we are willing to pay for it.

Please tell me you have one.
He made Jenna rich.
- He made you all rich. - Yeah.
Should we go inside?
Yeah.
Come on. [Laughs]
- I wish I was dead. - It's gonna be okay.
I say inappropriate things when I'm uncomfortable.
- [Spits gum] - Hey, I'm Mandy,
- Ambrosia's mom. - Oh, hi.
Aww.
- This is MeeMaw. - Beverly Brown?
I went to school with your MeeMaw.
And roll the graphic.
And take camera one.
Our final guest this afternoon is the new host of "Paint."
Please welcome to the show, Mary.
One of the hosts of "Paint," Donald.
I'm happy to announce that thanks to a sizable donation
from our new GM, Wendy, and some technological wizardry
from our new head of graphics, Tony,
PBS Burlington was able to digitally remove
Carl Nargle's pipe from his shows
so we can all watch him take us to his special place forever.
And then roll the clip.

Put anything in my stew, 'cause I'll eat it.
I love a good stew.
Feel free to draw me a letter with your favorite stews.
Always nice to hear from people back home.
The wonders...

What are you gonna share with us today, old friend?
Looks like someone's been working overtime.
[Car door closes]
I got groceries.
You feel like grilling?
I already put it on.
♪ You fill up my senses
- How was school? - Oh, it was, um...
confusing and awful.
I tried to warn you years ago.
Can I tell you something really, really important?
Yeah.
If I'm never going to leave here,
I think we should probably get cable.
Well, you know,
a man who has the love of a good blackberry bush
shouldn't need cable.
What about a VCR?
I think being able to watch a movie
while you're away could help make this our special place.
Oh, it's already pretty great for me.

What do you think?
- Make the blue red. - Okay.
And what if it was a little girl?
I like it.
Just promise me you won't become famous again.
Well, I'm not going to sign it Carl Nargle.
He died in a barn.
Sign it "Barnsy."
Re-Barnsy.
Maybe "Barnsy."
- Maybe "Blanksy." - Blanksy?
Blanksy.
