Complete story — includes the ending

After his wife is killed in a car accident, Dr. Andrew (Andy) Brown ( Treat Williams ) moves his 15-year-old son, Ephram ( Gregory Smith ), and 9-year-old daughter, Delia ( Vivien Cardone ), to the idyllic Everwood, Colorado, to make a new start. In the opener, the relocation sparks harsh words and hurt feelings between the emotionally distant father and his neglected son, despite Andy's attempts to reconnect with the teen. Bonding with Ephram is further hindered by Andy's decision not to explain the reason for leaving New York. The good doctor also runs afoul of the town's only other physician, Dr. Harold Abbott, when he decides to open his own practice right across the street from his rival's office, and not charge patients. Ephram falls for Amy Abbott, Harold's daughter, but learns she's still in love with her boyfriend Colin, who is in a coma after a car accident.
