After featuring an emotional ending for one of its iconic characters, "One Tree Hill" will deliver good news for Julian and Brooke in next week's episode. He pitches his show to some executives who like his idea, and he owes it to Brooke for showing him her journal.

Also in the upcoming outing, Brooke still processes her father's betrayal as Haley prepares to emcee the annual Tree Hill Burning Boat Festival. Mouth and Millie make a change to their morning show, while Clay and Quinn get ready for Logan's (guest star Pierce Gagnon) first night at the beach house.

"Anyone Who Had a Heart" will air Wednesday, March 28 at 8/7c on The CW. The week after, the show will bid farewell with its final episode.

Meanwhile, the recently aired episode saw [SPOILER ALERT!] the death of Dan Scott. Asked if his character has been redeemed for murdering his brother Keith in the past, Paul Johansson said, "I don't know if he's redeemed, but I do know he's forgiven. Haley and everybody have forgiven him, but I don't think he's redeemed. Those are two completely different things."

"And Dan has not forgiven himself. He has not forgiven himself because his sin was too great. Taking Keith from the world was too much for his soul. And every single day was one more day toward his ultimate death," the actor continued explaining, adding that only God can forgive Dan.
