Sweet Magnolias: Episode 9: Where You Find Me

On the morning of the mock trial Kyle’s behavior worries everyone meanwhile Dana Sue meets a handsome farmer.

Bill and Maddie are frantic and when Maddies tells Bill to ask Noreen if she’s seen Kyle, Bill tells her Noreen left him. Pastor June Wilkes finds Kyle sitting alone in church. Maddie arrives and he tells her how he feels like no one sees him and thinks if he disappeared how no one would miss him. Maddie is crushed that she didn’t see how much he was struggling. 

Ryan comes to the rescue when it comes to Helen’s need for a co-op manager to take over the farm and keep it alive. Dana Sue heads out to the farm with Ryan to meet with the head of the co-op. She’s there to see what the options are and what the co-op can provide Sullivan’s. When she meets “farmer” Jeremy, the man running the co-op, nothing and no one is what she expected. 

The mock trial competition goes on without Kyle with Annie filing in for Kyle and being grilled by Ce Ce on the stand. Ce Ce can’t stand seeing Annie and Ty talk and she takes it out on Annie during the trial. The competition goes well, in spite of Kyle’s absence.
