Second-hand store owner Rose McGovern (Erin Agostino) joins her friend at an antiques appraisal show. She grabs a teapot from the store and is surprised at the $80k appraisal. Antique dealer Joe Everett (Luke Humphrey) is desperate to buy it for an important client. She insists on finding the prior owner before selling it.

This is a Canadian TV movie. It is similar to Hallmark or Lifetime or something like that. While I don't recognize the actors, they're doing fine and the characters are nice especially the girlfriend. The story is a bit thin. While I myself wouldn't try to find the old owner, I get the premise but after talking to Vicky, Rose really has no more reason not to sell. She needs to explain more about her work motivations. I wish this is more enlightening about small business or the second hand resale world. Luckily, being light weight is not a deadly sin in this genre.

I've only got as far as the first commercial break, and I'm wondering if I've strayed into children's tv. The storyline "could" have worked initially, but then descended into utter farce. Without giving any spoilers, the possibility of tracking an unknown person down without any information or documents within a couple of days (and without any frantic hurry) , would be impossible even for the FBI /Interpol/ MI5 all put together - but then, THIS is Hallmark !! The lead actress Erin, has clearly got experience in films, but it's obvious why she hasn't made the big time, likewise her male lead. The script is dire, particularly the lines uttered by her best friend, the bride. No-one (unless they do in America) has such pathetic conversations with their best mate. Some stranger bumps into her Maid of Honour, and she suggests bringing him to her wedding, like you do.

Definitely a Hallmark turkey.
