In this episode, we find the ever-lovable Rolly Forbes, a devoted member of the church and the best friend of the main protagonist, Pastor Reuben Gregory. Rolly is known for his jovial personality, infectious laughter, and his natural ability to bring a smile to everyone's faces. He is also known for always being the helpful handyman around the church, ready to lend a hand to anyone in need.

However, unbeknownst to his friends and fellow church members, Rolly has been nursing a secret longing in his heart. For years, he has been head over heels in love with Amelia Hetebrink, the beautiful and kind-hearted church secretary. Rolly has never gathered the courage to express his love for her and has instead contented himself with the role of her close friend.

As the episode begins, the church buzzes with excitement as the congregation prepares for the annual church bazaar, a much-awaited event filled with joy, music, and delicious food. Rolly, determined not to let another year pass without speaking his heart, decides that it's finally time to propose to Amelia. He enlists the help of Reuben to plan a surprise engagement, seeking his advice and assistance in orchestrating the perfect proposal.

Reuben, always eager to be Rolly's confidant and assist in any way possible, readily agrees to help his best friend. Together, they come up with an elaborate plan, strategizing how to make the proposal not only unforgettable but also deeply meaningful to Amelia. Rolly's passion and nervousness are palpable as he confides in Reuben, revealing his hopes, dreams, and fears about potentially changing the dynamics of their friendship.

As the bazaar unfolds, the stage is set for the momentous occasion. The church is beautifully adorned, and Reuben is on edge, ensuring that everything goes according to plan. Rolly's anticipation is almost overwhelming, and as the hour to propose approaches, he finds solace in prayer, asking for guidance and strength.

When the time is right, Rolly takes a deep breath, musters up his courage, and makes his way to the center of the bazaar.
