Regretting You

In the film’s climax the crash that kills Morgan’s husband Chris and her sister Jenny also shatters the fragile peace the family had been clinging to. When Morgan and Jonah finally locate the car’s whereabouts, they discover that Chris and Jenny had spent the morning together at a hotel – an unmistakable sign that the two had been carrying a secret affair. The revelation roars through Morgan’s grief, turning sorrow into a furious mix of betrayal and disbelief. As she watches the empty house she once shared with Chris being stripped and rebuilt, she channels that anger into a complete redesign of the home, finally exercising a freedom she never had while married.

Jonah, meanwhile, is forced to confront the fact that the boy he has been raising, Elijah, may actually be Chris’s son. The suspicion is enough for him to step back, ask Morgan to look after Elijah, and wrestle with what fatherhood truly means when the blood ties are ambiguous. When their teenage daughter Clara notices her mother’s spiraling state, she confronts Jonah, demanding that he take responsibility for his son. Jonah’s answer—he will be there for Elijah regardless of biology—solidifies his commitment to the family he has built.

The emotional wreckage pulls Morgan and Jonah closer. With both of them bearing wounds inflicted by the people they trusted most, they finally allow themselves to acknowledge the long‑standing love that has lingered beneath the surface. After a hesitant pause, Morgan admits she feels the same and the two decide to move forward together, sharing the home they are renovating and raising Elijah as their own.

Parallel to the adult drama, Clara’s storyline reaches a tentative resolution. She and Miller, who had been drifting apart over misunderstandings and the shadow of Miller’s grandfather’s illness, come to understand each other’s sacrifices. Miller’s grandfather, now financially secure, offers to fund Miller’s film studies, allowing the couple to attend the same university program—Clara in acting, Miller in film. Their bond, once strained by secrecy and hurt, is reaffirmed through a heartfelt video proposal and a promise to face the future side‑by‑side.

In the final moments the film leaves us with a sense of rebirth: Morgan, having reclaimed her own desires through interior design, walks the renovated halls of a house that no longer belongs solely to Chris’s memory. Jonah stands beside her, ready to co‑parent Elijah and nurture a new romantic chapter. Clara, buoyed by the support of her mother and Miller, prepares to step onto the stage of her own ambitions. The story closes on a note that, despite the weight of regret, the characters have chosen to build something new from the wreckage.
