What happened in season 1 of The Way Home?

In season 1, Alice discovered she could time travel through her grandmother’s pond on the farm. She was transported back to the late 90s and early 2000s when her mother was a teenager. There, Alice befriended a teenaged Kat and her friend Elliot. Plus, she met her grandfather, who died before she was born in the present day. In this time traveled state, Alice also investigated her uncle Jacob’s disappearance.

Meanwhile, in the present day, Kat discovered the time traveling pond, and went back to when her father and brother were both still alive. Present day Elliot also revealed his longstanding crush on Kat. However, Kat discovered her brother Jacob fell into the pond and so she went back to get him. But, this time she traveled back to 1814 and found Jacob to be an engaged adult. When Kat tried to reach him, her efforts made Jacob get captured.

What about season 2?

Kat discovered Jacob was imprisoned by Cyrus, a mansion owner. With help from her 1814 friends, Kat rescued Jacob and continued to go back and forth in time. Meanwhile, Kat’s mom, Del, found a horse belonging to her new neighbor, Sam. But, she initially ignored the attraction between them due to memories of her late husband, Colton. She was torn between letting Colton go and letting Sam in.

Alice struggled to feel normal amidst her time traveling abilities. But, things started to look up for her when she developed a crush on Noah, a coffee shop patron. For her mother, Kat, things were pretty complicated for a while. Kat found her focus to be on 1814, including the handsome Thomas Coyle. When she discovered he sacrificed himself for Jacob, Kat raced to find him and left present day Elliot in the dust.

When she arrived, Jacob told her that he wanted to return to the present, and that Thomas was still alive. In the meantime, Elliot theorized that they could only travel back in time with a Landry family member. So, he and Alice put the theory to the test and ended up at his 2007 graduation with teenaged Kat. In the final scene, fans saw Colton and a young Jacob at a fire on graduation night. But, when the man turned around, it was Colton and not Elliot, who originally traveled back in time.
