His friend pointed out the window to where Alan-Michael and Lucy were on the beach and told him that they were happy now and his job here was finished.

Michelle picked up on the fact that Zachary wasn't just talking about the bird and asked him if he was leaving. He told her he wouldn't leave until the lighthouse was finished. When Michelle offered to visit and sit with the goose until it was better, Zach told her that he did not think it was a good idea because she might bring in something from the outside. Michelle replied that he should stop making excuses and that if he didn't want to see her he should just leave. Michelle then gave him back the bracelet and after he walked out the door, started to cry and wondered why he couldn't love her back. Outside, Zachary turned back around and reached for the door.
