Firefly Lane (2021) s02e13 Episode Script

Can't Fight This Feeling

1
Almost go time.
How you feeling?
I'd feel a lot better
if the bride would show up.
We're supposed to start any minute.
Yeah. Okay.
- Hi. Good to see you. Thanks for coming.
- Hi. How are ya?
Hi.
Come in.
Aren't I the one
who's supposed to be late, Aunt Tully?
I'm ready, just tweaking the hair.
Okay.
- Can you help me put on my veil?
- Mm-hmm.
Okay.
You look beautiful.
I'm so nervous.
You're gonna do great, honey.
I am so proud of you.
Oh, I finally have a plan
for your bachelorette party.
Tul, no.
Just two words.
Male strippers. Penis straws.
- No.
- Sex toy party favors. Vegas.
I'm in. What time we going?
No boys allowed at the bachelorette.
Tul, no. I already told you I do not want
a bachelorette or a bridal shower
or any of that nonsense.
The wedding is spectacle enough.
But I'm the maid of honor,
and the maid of honor has to plan stuff.
Oh.
- Um
- What? What's with the looks?
I forgot to mention
Marah's actually my maid of honor.
- Oh.
- I've been meaning to tell you.
It makes sense.
Well, you know, it's just that
she's my daughter and
Kate, please, you don't have to explain.
I get it. I'll just be a bridesmaid.
I don't get to be a bridesmaid?
Of course if I was having bridesmaids.
It's just Johnny only has one best man.
Yeah, it'd be asymmetrical.
So because he doesn't have
any fucking friends,
- I don't get to be in the wedding?
- Hey! I have friends.
You have Mutt.
Mutt is your best man.
You guys don't even hang out.
We just hung out the other night.
At Carol's retirement party,
and that was weeks ago.
And we are gonna get lunch next week
if we are both free, and we'll see.
Yeah, okay.
'Cause that's just like me and Kate. Same.
"Same"
Tul, you are a super important
part of the wedding.
Like, you're the most important guest
who's not actually in the wedding.
Oh yeah. So important.
Yeah, in fact, henceforth you'll be known
as the official guest of honor.
- What?
- That's dumb. It's not a real thing.
Yeah, if we put it in the program, it is.
- Really?
- Really?
Yes.
So
what are the official duties
of the guest of honor?
Oh my
So many bullshit tasks.
Why do we have to count the straws
every night? It's just busy work.
Can I tell you a secret?
I just make up a number.
What?
60, 82, 47.
Boss never even checks.
Lisa-Karen, who knew you were an outlaw?
I have many layers.
So are you still coming over on Friday?
My mom's really excited.
Yeah, yeah, um, next Friday.
Yeah, the Friday coming up.
- No. Friday after the Friday coming up.
- Ah, okay. Gotcha.
- I can't wait. We'll have so much fun.
- Me neither.
Ugh!
No!
Oh, I just remembered
I have to go check on the urinal cakes.
Kate, your customer.
Hello, sir.
What can I get ya'?
I think I'm in the mood
for something
sweet
and dangerous.
Well, there's leftover milkshake
that's been, uh, sitting
on the counter since noon.
It's probably both.
I meant you.
I wanna take you somewhere cool
private.
I'd love to, but I'm probably not
gonna be off for another hour.
I gotta clean the grease traps
and take out the trash.
Bummer.
Kate,
can you help me with something?
Yeah.
Go, now, or you're fired.
We still have to close.
I'm fully capable of doing it myself.
It's my day to clean the grease trap.
You hate cleaning it.
You can clean the grease trap next time.
And the time after that.
Really?
Yes, but you have to make sure
you tell me everything,
so I can live vicariously through you.
Deal.
Uh, this Friday after school?
Yeah, next Friday.
Yeah, and this Friday, if you want.
Double deal.
Now, go have fun.

I had no idea
that Make Out Point was a real place.
- Well, I'm honored I get to introduce you.
- They actually named it Make Out Point?
No, it's it's actually called
Evergreen Lookout.

There's nothing to see when it's dark.

You're getting good at this.
You're a good teacher.

Oh my God.

So, Theo, what do you think
of the tuna casserole?
Ah.
It's an American classic.
Mmm.
I'll have to say
it is quite the culinary delight.
- Right?
- Mm-hmm.
- The secret is the special crispy topping.
- Mmm.
Is it crazy that I want to serve this
at our wedding?
Really?
Did I tell you
we're doing a story on bridal trends?
Mm-mm.
Inspired by me.
- Oh yeah?
- I'm very trendy.
See, I've always seen you
as more timelessly elegant.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Are you okay?
Mmm. Oh yeah, of course.
I think I'm just a little stressed out,
you know, with work and wedding planning,
and planning work weddings,
working wedding plans,
and picking out invitations,
and then looking at dresses,
and finding a redheaded groom cake-topper
is surprisingly difficult.
So, I think I'm just, um
just getting a bit overwhelmed.
You know, it doesn't have to be a redhead,
the cake groom.
Yes, it does. It has to be perfect!
No, it doesn't.
Forget about perfect.
You know, this time this time
is meant to be joyous, Kate.
Like, right now, this is the time
before all of the hard stuff of life.
- Yep.
- You know, when we build our foundation.
That's all That's all I want to do
is build a really strong foundation
with you.
We are.
So don't stress so much, okay?
But do go to work tomorrow.
Look at those wedding dresses,
and, I don't know, maybe pick one, right?
Because you are running out of time,
my darling.
Perfect, gorgeous. You are ready to go.
Uh, send the next model in, please.
How's my model wrangler?
Everything is going smoothly, Mr. Ryan.
Mr. Ryan?
Is my father here?
Boundaries are important.
I mean, I'm an almost married woman.
We need to keep things professional.
Oh, lose the candles, please.
Yeah, yes, no, of course, sorry.
Yeah, I I understand and agree.
Great.
Kate, we have a problem.
One of the models got pooped on
by her pet parakeet,
and now she has pink eye.
Seriously?
Okay. I guess we could just
showcase four looks instead of five.
No! We've been promoting
the top five bridal looks for weeks.
We can't just advertise five
and show up with four.
Oh, Carol could do it. We could squeeze in
a "Carol Tries It" segment.
I asked. She said,
"I've already been married three times."
"The only way I'll put on
another wedding dress is
if David Hasselhoff calls."
Okay, so who can we get instead?
Oh no.
No, no, no, no, no, no. Mm-mm.
No.
Okay, time for last looks.
Mularkey?
One of the models
got pink eye, apparently, so
yeah.
I I look stupid, don't don't I?
I I feel
No.
No, no, you look
perfect
for the segment.
I can barely see through this thing.
Oh, here, let me, um
Let me just
Hey, you know, if you if you don't have
a wedding dress already,
I'm sure the station could probably
get you a discount on this one.
Oh. Well, I saw the price tag.
I think it would have to be
a pretty big discount.
Well, Theo's rich, right?
I mean, yeah, his family is,
but, um, that is not why I'm marrying him.
No, yeah, no,
I I I would never think that.
I just I just meant, you know,
you deserve a great dress
and a and a great life.
Thanks.
Kate!
- Yeah?
- You're on.
Great.
Surprise!
What?
What What about lunch?
Oh, well, I had to get you here somehow.
There's plenty of food. Don't worry.
Welcome to your bridal shower.
Just relax, enjoy.
We're all here to celebrate you.
And I promise, there are no penis straws.
I hope you like it, Mom.
Course I do. Thank you, sweetie.
Thank you Thank you, everybody.
Thank you so much for coming. Wow.
What are best friends for? Now, come on.
Have some fun. You deserve it. Come on.
Isn't this a wonderful surprise?
Isn't it decadent?
Tully had everything flown in
from New York.
Here, here. Try one of these.
I'm so glad
that we have a chance to celebrate.
Well, we'll also celebrate
at, you know, the wedding.
Oh, not just your marriage, you.
I'm so relieved that you're okay,
and we can
put all this cancer business behind us.
Tully secretly was
planning this for weeks.
I can tell how much she missed you.
I'm just so happy
the two of you are friends again.
And now, if I can invite you
to join me in the living room
for a little walk down memory lane.
Oh!
Mom, you were such a dork.
Oh, yikes.
Yeah, I really was.
Well, I will have you know
your dorky mother was dating the BMOC.
What's BMOC?
- Big man on campus.
- Oh.
His name was Coop,
and we didn't really go out.
No, that's right, they just made out.
- Gross.
- Nice.
What's with the hair, though?
Oh, that's the Dorothy Hamill, dear.
That haircut's very becoming.
Who's the girl with you?
Uh, Linda-Karen?
It was Lisa-Karen.
She looks like a bigger dork than you.
I remember her.
Didn't she die
like, a crazy death?
She died?
- Mmm.
- Mmm.
Someone's in a good mood.
Who knew bad weather
could be so romantic?
What did I miss?
Did you know Make Out Point
is a real place?
Technically it's called Evergreen Lookout.
But to me, it will always be
the place where I went to third.
You went to third!
Yes, yes!
But you just have to be quiet, okay?
- I'll tell you at work.
- Okay, come on, come on.
- Cloud, I'm gonna take the van to work!
- Girls, work's canceled today.
They're closed.
Oh shit, the health department
finally shut us down?
- I told Mike we have a cockroach problem.
- No.
There was an accident last night,
and a girl was struck by lightning,
and she is dead.
No, that doesn't make any sense.
I was working there last night,
and I'm fine.
Uh, clearly, that was
a phony phone call, Cloud.
- Yeah, that's really not funny.
- No, that was Mike, the owner.
And he said that Lisa-Karen
was struck by lightning
when she was taking out the trash,
and she was killed just instantly. Poof.
That doesn't I mean, I can't believe that
'cause I just saw her,
and Kate worked there yesterday,
so there's no way she could be
This morning, I had to pee really bad,
and so I went out to the garden
'cause, you know,
I like to nourish the plants, and
when I was peeing,
this butterfly,
it just hovered over my face.
And instinctively, I knew it was trying to
tell me something, but I didn't know what.
But I know now.
It wanted me to tell you
that she's okay.
That doesn't make any sense.
Why would a butterfly pick you
to tell us about Lisa-Karen?
Mike picked me.
No, you just happened
to answer the phone.
Just like I happened to be
out in the garden peeing
when the butterfly came.
Look, girls,
she's at peace now.
She is a free, free, free bird.
I gotta go change out of my work uniform,
and I've got a paper due Monday
that I haven't even started yet.
Plus, we have the play rehearsal later.
Kate, are you okay?
I'm fine.
They say I couldn't have
picked a more perfect person
to share my life with.
I feel the same way.
- Hi.
- Hey.
What are you doing here?
I, uh
I don't know.
I was just I was just driving,
and I was here.
Oh.
Why?
Uh
I I don't know. I actually don't know.
I guess because I, uh
I still love you.
You still love me?
Well, you know what? Um
I don't care.
God, you're such an asshole.
You don't get to just come here
and tell me that you love me.
I'm getting married.
I I have wedding invitations,
and a and a gift registry,
and a fucking venue.
Yeah.
Yeah. No, you're right.
I'm I'm I'm sorry.
Theo is a good man,
and and he wants to be my husband,
and you and I broke up because you didn't.
So
you don't get to just come to my doorstep
and tell me that you love me
and expect that
I'm just gonna fall into your arms.
I'm so sorry that you're lonely, Johnny,
and I'm sorry that you're sad,
but we're in this position because of you.
God damn it, it is too late.
I am with Theo.
And I am happy now. I'm so fucking happy!
Okay! I get it!
I'm happy for you!
Good!
This is Tully Hart bringing you
a breaking weather update.
Heavy winds and rain are expected to
continue in the Seattle metro area today.
Hey, Tuls, so we kinda have a situation.
Oh my God, it's a rainstorm.
It happens in Seattle all the time.
- Why is everyone being so dramatic?
- There's this lady over in the lobby.
She's kinda acting a little crazy.
- She wants to talk to you.
- Why would I want to talk to a crazy lady?
She says she's your mother.
I know you said your mother's dead,
but she's pretty insistent.
- I can call the cops.
- No. No.
That's okay. I'll take care of it.
- Jesus, Cloud. What are you doing here?
- You tell people I'm dead?
I haven't seen you in forever.
I guess I just assumed.
Tully, I need your help.
This is important.
- All right. Calm down. What's going on?
- Okay.
So I was I was down
at the the Spring Street Diner,
and those fucking fascists,
they refused to serve me.
Okay.
Is it possible they wouldn't serve you
because not only
are you high as a fucking kite,
you have no shoes?
My civil rights are being trampled
by the yuppie fucking agenda,
and you're worried about shoes?
Okay, okay, please, please, calm down.
- I told them who you were.
- Uh-huh.
I told them
that you were gonna go on the news
and tell the whole fucking world
what they're doing!
Okay, or I can order you some food
and you can sober up.
Are you fucking serious?
Yes, you need to eat.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.
You're fucking useless!
Useless!
Fuck you.
You okay?
Yeah.
She's an informant, or at least,
I thought she was an informant.
Turns out she's just a fucking junkie
having some crazy episode
where she thinks she's my mother.
It's bizarre.
Shit.
Intense.
Come here.
- Mutt, I told you she's
- I know.
You're all a bunch of corporate puppets!
Have fun putting on your
little puppet show, you fucking sheep!
Bah! Bah!
You fucking sheep.
Bah!
Bah! Bah!
I mean, I know this white dress shit
is just the patriarchy
exerting its dominance, but
I look damn good.
I should wear clothes
made out of toilet paper more often.
I don't know. I still think
it could use a little bit of tailoring.
That's exactly what the patriarchy
would say, Tallulah.
Mmm.
I left my present for Mom in the trunk.
Can I get your keys?
- Yeah, in my purse in the kitchen.
- Awesome.
I like that. Perfect.
- Did you and Marah drive here together?
- Yeah.
She needed a ride.
You gotta get that kid a car.
Okay, I just really wish that
you would've asked me before you did that.
It would've ruined the surprise.
But I didn't want a surprise.
I told you that.
I don't believe this.
Do you Do you really think
I'd ever, ever put her in danger again?
You can't blame me for being concerned.
Actually, I can.
It's the middle of the goddamn day.
I was driving her to your bridal shower.
Yeah, I didn't want
a fucking bridal shower, Tully!
I told you that, but you didn't listen.
You never listen.
You just do whatever the hell you want.
So excuse me for being a little concerned
about you getting behind the wheel again
after you got in a drunk driving accident
with my daughter in the car.
I'm sorry.
I'll take those, honey. It's okay.
- Thanks. I'm just gonna
- She just needs a minute.
She had a year.
Obviously, it wasn't enough.
- She's just a little upset. That's all.
- I don't know what I was thinking.
She doesn't need me anymore
now that the cancer's gone.
She only wanted me back
because she was scared.
What? Tully? No.
She abandoned me,
and I still came running back,
and now she wants to pull this shit!
Fine. Have at it, but I am leaving.
She hasn't really forgiven me anyway.
Have you forgiven her?
It can be hard to let go.
That's why
I didn't cancel today's rehearsal.
We all could use a space to come together
and talk about what happened,
and try and make sense
of this senseless tragedy.
If you feel moved to speak,
I want to encourage that,
or you can just sit with your thoughts
and your memories of Lisa-Karen.
There's no right way to go about this.
And I know that we're still all in shock.
Shock is right.
- Yes.
- Ever since I heard,
I haven't been able to stop crying.
Lisa-Karen was a really special person.
Like, the way
that she used to load the filmstrips,
and
uh, push the AV cart in the hall.
We were partners
on a science project last year
where we made a volcano,
and I felt like
I felt like we really connected
around the volcano,
making it
together.
And
she was, like,
the best volcano partner ever
and I just never thought she would die
like that.
One day in the fourth grade,
I forgot my lunch,
and she gave me half her sandwich,
tuna fish, my favorite.
She was real cool for that.
It meant a lot to me.
"I see your red hair everywhere"
And that's why
I am going to organize a memorial
for the whole school,
and I'll sing "Imagine"
to honor her and how special she was.
Oh, and I can play the piano.
Oh my God,
you guys are such fucking phonies.
None of you were nice to her.
The only reason that you want to do
this stupid memorial
is so that you can show off and sing,
but she hated that song.
And you all hated her.
You called her Raggedy Ann
and freckle-faced dork.
And devil pubes.
- Hey, come on.
- No! No!
Every single one of you
treated her like shit,
and now you want to use her death
to feel deep and important.
But all of you
are just a bunch of fucking posers.
No, and you know what?
She never gave you a tuna fish sandwich
because she was allergic to tuna fish.
Maybe that's why she gave me the sandwich.
Oh my God,
I hate them all so fucking much.
- Easy, Mularkey.
- No.
I was the only person
who was really friends with her.
They all hated her when she was alive,
and now and now she's dead and they all
just want to pretend to be sad.
It's so it's so gross.
Can you just shut up
for, like, half a second, please?
- I don't think that they're full of shit.
- Oh my God.
No, listen!
I wasn't friends with her either,
and I'm still sad.
And I bet you that they are too
because we're in high school,
and people in high school
aren't supposed to die.
And it's hard,
and it's scary, and it's sad.
And I don't think they're pretending.
You know what?
I'm not surprised you don't get it
because you were a total bitch to her too.
You want to help me with this?
Party's over.
No, party is not over until we eat cake.
Those two can really fight, huh?
You should've seen them
when they were kids.
Oh my God, the yelling and the drama.
One time they got into it
over a Bee Gees record.
They sound like one of those birds.
You know, the really screechy kind.
"You were the one who lost it."
"Oh no, no, you were the one who lost it."
The truth is I was the one who lost it
in the trash because fucking disco sucks.
Am I right?
Anyways, that one was my fault,
but this one right now,
it's not your fault.
You know that, right?
I don't think it's my fault.
Yeah, you do.
I mean
they are fighting over me.
- No, they're not.
- Yes, they are.
I'm the reason
they didn't talk for over a year
and I'm the reason
they're fighting right now.
It's not about you, babe.
I know it must have been hard growing up
the daughter of a Firefly Lane girl.
It's always Kate and Tully forever.
That shit cast a pretty long shadow.
- I don't mind. I love Aunt Tully.
- I know.
Still kind of sucks the air out
of the room for the rest of us.
Those two,
it's a classic codependent dynamic.
And don't get me started on boundaries.
Oh, wait, you can't,
because they have none.
And that fight that they had,
the one about the accident
it wasn't about the accident.
After 30 years of too much intensity,
they just needed to
They needed to break free. Reset.
- But they're still fighting.
- There's this phrase I heard once in AA,
I think it's Jungian psychology,
that "what you resist, persists."
Pretty sure old Carl Jung would say
those two haven't sorted
the roots of their issues.
But either way
it ain't about you.
Also, you should know
this cake is incredible.
It's like an orgasm from heaven.
Mmm.
That was transcendent!
Oh God!
I think I blacked out there at the end.
Whew!
- Hey, do you mind if I jump in the shower?
- Oh my God.
I gotta get back to the station.
I told 'em I was ducking out for some gum.
Mmm.
Holy shit, I'm an adulteress.
I just committed adultery.
Well, I think, technically, you have to be
married for it to count as adultery.
It's not funny, okay?
I'm a terrible person.
You're You're a wonderful person.
You're, like, the best person.
No, I'm a total dick.
What What? Hey, Kate. Kate. Come on.
No, you come on.
I am sick, and I'm crazy,
and I gotta get off this roller coaster.
I'm marrying Theo, okay? End of story.
This was great. This was goodbye,
and you need to move on, Johnny.
Well, I think that we both know
it's not that simple.
And it gets more complicated
every time we're in a room together.
And it's bad enough that you and I
are constantly hurting each other.
But then I'm gonna go risk hurting Theo.
And for what?
I don't care that you love me, and I
love you.
We don't have a future together. Okay?
It was a huge,
ridiculous, colossal mistake.
Oh fuck.
Just take your shower and go.
Hello.
Oh, hey, Mom.
Yeah, everything's fine.
Yeah, it's just we're about to pick out
wedding invitations. Yeah.
Right, I just don't really want to invite
people that I've never met to my wedding.
You can see it when it airs tonight at
Well, they said they'd give me a discount,
so that's kind of cool.
Why would that be bad luck, Mom?
It's a really nice dress.
Kate!
Hey, babe.
Babe?
Oh.
public to stay indoors
as the storm is expected to worsen.
This has been Tully Hart,
reporting live for KPOC.
Kate, you home, love?
Hello.
Ah.
Perhaps my dirty girl
would like a sexy surprise.
Back for round two, Mularkey
Tell him that is ridiculous.
There's no such thing
as raising the baby British.
Mom, I'll call you back.
Oh my God, what happened?
He He, um, slipped and fell.
And I heard something pop.
Is he gonna be okay?
He'll probably lose a testicle,
but he'll be fine.
How is that fine?
Theo, I am so sorry.
Is there anything I can do?
Yes, yes, give me back
my granny's ring.
Oh. Of course.
You know, my mother,
she only pretended to like you.
What?
Please leave.
Mularkey
I can't believe
I used to think I was a good person.
You are.
- You're You're You're an amazing person.
- Stop it.
I cannot even look at you. Just leave.
Uh
Oh. Jesus, Coop. What the hell?
Okay. Okay.
And we're in.
What?
- Uh
- Sorry, didn't want to use the front door.
What are you doing here?
I don't know.
Just seemed like you needed to talk.
I I don't want to talk.
Um, should I go?
Um, could you just, like,
hold me?
You You want me to hold you?
Yeah, just, like,
lay on the bed and hold me.
Yeah, sure. Sure, yeah.
Okay.
- Let's
- Yeah, um
- Is this good?
- Yeah, it's good.
Do you
have a boner?
I'm sorry. I can't I can't help it.
- No, it's it's it's okay. Um
- Okay.
- Oh shit, that's my mom.
- Shit.
You gotta go.
Uh
Okay.
Ow! Oh! No, no, no, no, no!
Uh, come in.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
Nothing, I just wanted to hang out.
- You're not mad at me?
- No.
- I yelled at you and called you a bitch.
- I know.
But then I talked to Mr. Waverly,
and he said you were angry
because it made you feel in control.
He said you were yelling
so you wouldn't have to face
what you're really feeling,
which is helpless and sad.
Oh God, your thing with him is so creepy.
Do you want him to be your dad,
or do you wanna have sex with him?
You know what? Fine, I'll just go.
Good. I don't care.
Okay, good. Great, bye.
Come on in.
What?
I thought you left.
You're not that lucky, Mularkey.
Why are you still here?
I'm here because you need me.
You also need to stop being such a bitch.
You don't get it.
No one's ever gonna get it.
I'm really fucking mad at you.
You know that?
Why would you be mad at me?
Because when you got sick, I came back.
No questions asked.
Nothing was gonna keep me away.
I was willing to put aside everything
because you needed me,
and I thought I could just ignore
how I felt about what you did to me.
What I did to you? Are you kidding me?
I know I was wrong.
I know I put Marah in danger,
and it is the biggest
fucking regret of my life.
I can't imagine what it must've felt like
for you and Johnny, and I am sorry.
I will never stop being sorry,
but you just
you just abandoned me.
All of you,
Johnny, Sean, Margie, Bud.
You all just threw me away
like I meant nothing to you,
and I thought
I thought you were my family.
I thought I was an honorary Mularkey,
but it was all just bullshit.
You don't get it.
No one's ever gonna get it.
It's my fault she's dead.
- Kate
- It's my fault.
I was supposed to
take out the trash that night,
but then Coop came, and I left.
- It doesn't make it your fault.
- Yeah, it's my fault.
If I'd just stayed
like I was supposed to, but
And now
And now she's never gonna go to prom,
or college.
She's never gonna get married
or have a baby.
And it's all my fault.
It should've been me, Tully.
It should've been me.
If Johnny or Sean had done what I did,
you would never have shut them out
because they actually are family.
And I am not,
and I never was.
And it was all just a lie.
And I don't know
how to forgive you for it.
I am so sorry I shut you out.
You are family,
but when I heard that you two
had come here together, I just
I wish you could see
that I am not the same person I was
when I got in that accident.
I know you're not,
but neither am I.
But we keep acting like it is the same.
You're acting like
when I say I don't want a bridal shower,
that means throw me
a fucking, goddamn bridal shower.
Yeah, you're right.
I'm sorry, I should've listened.
And maybe somehow,
I'm just lording it over you
that you fucked up and I'm
the bigger person for forgiving you.
But you haven't.
Well, it's a process, okay?
- Well, could you speed it up a little?
- I'm trying. Jesus.
I really am trying.
Do you think we can ever really be
Firefly Lane girls ever again?
We still are, you asshole.
If that shit couldn't break us up,
then I don't think anything will.
Thanks for not leaving.
Of course.
What do you think
"Firefly Lane girls forever" means to me?
Kate, I'm home.
You're never gonna believe what
You okay?
Theo lost a ball.
- What?
- The engagement's off.
I'll get the wine.
And then they just wheeled him away,
and he gave me the finger.
Are you laughing?
- No.
- This isn't funny.
He broke off our engagement.
Well, can you really blame the guy?
I guess I just thought
if I focused on how great Theo was,
I could just ignore
my feelings for Johnny,
but it's like the more I was pushing away,
the more it was just, like, coming at me.
How hard were you really pushing, though?
With all my might, Tul.
Sure. Yeah. I mean,
that is how I like to push people away.
By having sex with them.
I actually do do that.
This is a nightmare, okay?
I don't want to love Johnny.
It's a dead-end street.
- Are you sure about that?
- Yes.
Well, now it's ruined forever.
We're cheaters. We're terrible people.
No, you're not. You're just in love.
We want different things.
I want marriage and kids, he doesn't.
So love or not, we're doomed.
What did you want to tell me before
when you came in?
Oh, it's nothing. I saw Cloud today.
- Seriously? Where?
- Doesn't matter.
What matters is my best friend is sad
and she needs cheesy, doughy goodness.
So, what is taking this pizza
so long to get here?
If it doesn't get here
within the next three minutes, it's free.
Oh.
Hello.
- It's Johnny.
- I'm not home.
She's not here. May I take a message?
Okay.
He says he knows I'm full of it
and he wants to talk.
Well, tell him I have nothing to say.
She has nothing to say.
He says,
"I'm done with the bullshit, Mularkey."
Good. Me too.
It's time to stop pretending
we don't belong together.
Yeah, a little late for that.
We can't undo what happened to Theo.
It was awful and wrong.
But so is being apart.
When I lifted up that veil today,
all I could think of was that someone else
was gonna get to do that for real,
that some other bloke
was gonna get to be your husband,
and the father of your children
and that would be
the biggest regret of my life.
Kate, God damn it, say something!
Johnny. Listen, I just
Johnny? Hello?
What the hell?
He just gives up. You see what I'm saying?
He just talks a big game, and then click.
"Bye, Mularkey."
Well, at least the pizza's free.
Oh shit. Kate!
Hey, Mularkey.
- How did you
- I was at the pay phone outside.
So, what do you say?
Will you marry me?
Yes.
Yes!
I took my love, I took it down ♪
Thank God. Finally.
I climbed a mountain

And I saw my reflection

Oh my God. It's so beautiful.
I love it!
Whoo!
Can the child within my heart

Can I sail

Can I handle the seasons of my life? ♪
Mmm ♪
Well, I've been afraid of changin' ♪

- I'm so sorry that I yelled, sweetie.
- It's okay.
- I'm sorry that I drove with Aunt Tully.
- No, no, it
You did nothing wrong.
It's okay.
I had forgotten how pretty she was.
- Danny.
- Oh!
Oh.
There you are.
How was the bridal shower?
Ugh. Disastrous
and beautiful.
- A beautiful disaster.
- Oh.
What's going on?
I wanna ask you something,
um, and it's
kind of weird.
Um
Uh, we we have this history, you and I
but you're so important to me,
and
you're you're just
such a big part of my life.
What are you trying to say, Danny?
Tallulah Rose
will you be my
best woman at the wedding?
Oh Jesus, Danny.
- You scared me.
- What? I'm sorry.
What did you think I was gonna say?
I have no idea, but yes.
- Yes?
- Of course I will be your best woman.
Oh!
Oh, thank you so much!
The landslide bring it down ♪
Hello, fiancée.
I've been thinking about it.
I don't want some judge to marry us
that we've barely met.
It should be someone
who knows us, who knows our history,
and who loves us, and we love them.
You know?
Yeah, I agree.
She's the only choice.
Really? You don't think that she'll make
our whole wedding all about her?
Of course she will.
But she will also make it
about us.
And there's no one who knows us better
or cares about us more.
For better or for worse.
Okay, but can you call and tell her later?
Let's take a shower.
I'll be right there.
You better be.
Hello.
I'll be right there.
Kate. This is Dr. Ackerman.
Sorry to call you so late.
Oh, there's no problem. Um
My back is feeling so much better.
I did the stretches you suggested,
and I'm so sorry I bothered you with that.
No, it's a good thing you did.
Kate, I'm concerned
about what I'm seeing on your x-rays.
I'd like you to come in for a PET scan
as soon as possible.
