With their house being sold, but their new house not ready for them to move into, Nina and Sam temporarily move in with the Browns. Andy, wanting to take care of unresolved issues from the past, takes a road trip before proposing to Nina.

Meanwhile, Bright learns that Hannah got a scholarship to Notre Dame and is devistated when he learns that she might take it; Andy becomes increasingly attached to the baby girl left on his doorstep; Delia is elated with Andy's late Bat Mizvah gift; Amy reveals her feelings for Ephram to Stephanie, who won't loose Ephram without a fight; and Harold and Rose deal with the news that Edna is leaving Everwood.

The final episode, "Foreverwood," was written as both a season and a series finale. Because of the impending WB/UPN merger, the future of the series was uncertain, and the producers wrote two endings: the aired version, as well as additional scenes where Madison showed up to cause some cliffhanger trouble.

Originally, the producers had scripted a montage for the "series-finale cut" that went forty years into the future to show a majority of the gang at Andy's funeral — showing the series coming full circle; however, this was never filmed due to budgetary reasons as well as the producers' hopes that they would receive a fifth season.
