You may now kiss the bride.
"I would never
leave you lost." In female handwriting.
This a love letter?
Look, a bra!
And it's right next to some kind of floral wrap thingy.
Who do you think he slept with last night?
It could be the wedding singer. Philip's friend.
-She was at the rehearsal last night. -Mm-hmm.
And they were talking.
Wait.
Did you see that look Sophie just gave him?
-They have crazy history together. -Mm-hmm.
But wait. She's married.
-Oh, yeah. That's not her M.O. -Mm. No.
Then there's Cassidy, his plus-one. Right.
Just as a friend, though.
So, for real, bro;
What happened with you last night?
Oh, man, it's a long story.
Is it a good story?
What time it is? You guys have the time?
Uh, we're about to have our rehearsal dinner.
Do you have somewhere else to be? I don't... No.
No, that's not what I was... talking about at all.
Mm-hmm.
She's really something, huh?
Pearson 'kryptonite'. Hot singers on stage
singing rock classics.
It's how Dad fell for Mom. -Yeah.
Oh; Uh, "Moon-shadow," right?
-Wow. Mm-hmm.
I had to brush up on my Pearson trivia
before, you know, marrying one.
Mm. -Aw.
Let's go say hi to somebody else.
-All right, have fun. Okay.
-Looking good, Pearson. -Oh! Thank you very, very much.
You're not looking so bad yourself.
I'm wearing makeup. I can't wait to wash my face.
But also, yeah, I know.
-You know. -I do.
-Manny say "slut." -Well, hey.
Haven't heard that one before. Hi.
-Oliver. Philip's cousin. -Kevin.
Oh. So, I, uh, hear you and I
are the only eligible blokes at this shindig.
Any thoughts on who you want to go for?
I-I don't want to step on any toes
or cross any swords.
U-Unless you're into that.
No. I... You know, I was... I was actually just here
to celebrate with Kate and Philip, so...
Okay.
Okay. Easy. Easy.
Yeah, you got it. Pace yourself.
-Oliver. Yeah. Hmm.
What?
Come on, man.
We both know you've been staring
at that door, willing Sophie to walk through it all day.
No, I don't even know what you're talking about.
-I have not been doing any of those things. Mm-hmm.
How many times have you seen her in the last few years?
Just twice. You know, I saw her once at her mother's funeral,
and then I saw her again at Kate and Philip's engagement party.
She's a married woman, Kev.
Don't cause any drama at our sister's wedding.
Look, Sophie and I are cool. All right, man?
We're...
Nothing to worry about.
Right.
Sophie, it's so good to see you.
You must be so tired.
Oh, my gosh; I must look it. I just had
a really, really long plane ride. -How's college?
How are you and Kevin handling the long distance?
Oh. Um... It's,
-Uh... Yeah, I-I know it's rough,
but hang in there.
Yeah.
Well, it's-it's really wonderful to see you again.
Mm. It's good to see you too.
Yeah.
-Hey. -Hey.
I'm just so sorry about all this,
um, but I'm Arielle,
and I'm gonna give you a big hug right now.
-Oh. Yeah, okay. -Okay.
Can you see the man behind me?
Oh, yeah. That's, uh, that's Oliver.
-Is he still there? -He is still there.
-I'm so sorry. -Yeah.
I-I've just been meaning to tell you,
I am your biggest fan!
I mean, that season finale?
I mean, I didn't know
a sitcom could be so heart-warming! Well,
Thank you very, very much. Um... Yeah.
Hugh Grant's opposite has-has left. I think
the coast is clear. Thank you.
Yeah, no problem. Anything for a fan.
Oh.
Actually, I've never seen your show.
-Yeah. Yeah. I'm just more of a podcast person.
Yeah, no; Honestly, I couldn't be less offended, really.
That's, uh... It's... You know,
I'm-I'm gonna go talk to an old friend real quick.
-Of course. Mm-hmm. -Okay? It was good talking to you.
: You, too. Okay. -Okay, I'll see you. All right.
-Dad! Dad! Dad! Dad! -Ah! Hey! Ah, there you are.
-What do we got? What do we got? -Can we go make s'mores
at the bonfire? -Can we? Can we, please?
Uh, this is a lot of sugar. What'd your mom say?
She said it's fine as long as you get the stuff to make them.
-As long as I get the stuff to make them. -If it's not too much trouble.
No. No, I don't think it's too much trouble. S'mores it is!
-All right? Yeah? Yeah!
You get s'mores.
Oh, we better get a jacket.
Yeah. It's gonna be cold.
Are you sure this isn't yours?
: No, this-this is not my luggage.
Trust me, if this was my bag, I would know.
Well, if I were you, I might just pretend it's mine to see
what the heck is inside this thing.
So, areyou sure? -Yes. -Ma'am?
: Are you sure that's not your bag?
Uh, so, what-what happened? The airport lose
your luggage? -Yep.
Now I'm totally screwed 'cause,
you know, I just have
this emergency pair of underwear 'cause you never want
-to get stuck in an E.R with dirty drawers. -Stuck at the E.R.
-That's your mom's number one... -That's my mom's only... Yeah.
...rule. Yeah.
-Uh, okay, so, what do we do? How do I fix this?
How do we get you clothes? -Most of the stores in town
close in half an hour.
Things shut down early here.
-You and Grant rent a car? -Oh, no.
No, he, uh, he actually got stuck in New York.
It's a long, boring story.
-Just had to work. -Um, I could drive you.
-Oh, you don't have to. -It's okay.
I got to run into town and grab some stuff anyway.
I'll-I'll drive you.
-Really? Are you sure? -Yeah.
Yeah. It's not a problem.
-Okay. -Okay. Can you pull the car around?
-Of course, right away. -Yeah? All right, come on.
I rented it for Kate and Philip.
So, it's either this
or a golf cart.
Okay.
Shall we?
Uh...
Just, uh... This is a lot;
Right? -Yeah, that's probably a good call.
-Yeah. Here you go. -Thank you
Okay. All right.
Sorry, Soph.
Looks like this was our last option.
Hmm.
I think I have an idea.
-Hi there. -Hi.
Hey. -Just about to close.
I'm sorry, you don't happen to have
a rack of unclaimed clothes, do you?
Look, I-I'm in town for a wedding,
and the airport lost my luggage.
I just... I'm really in a bind here.
Watch your head.
On the other side with a red tag.
Okay. Great. Thank you.
-Uh, we'll be fast, I promise. -Thank you.
This is a little trick my mom taught me
after the divorce.
Money was tight, so we used to go thrifting.
You never told me that.
Um... Yeah, well, it's not exactly something
that you go around bragging about, you know. Mm.
Come on; Start looking!
Oh! Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am.
Um, how are... how are your kids doing?
Oh, uh, they're incredible.
They're incredible. And I know that's something
that all parents say, you know, that their kids are special.
My kids are special.
They really are, though. They... They're special.
And they're so different. They're so different.
Franny is this, um, really precocious little girl.
She's always asking questions. She's very curious.
And Nicky is this, uh... a wild child
who dives into things head first without even thinking.
Sometimes literally.
-Hmm. Sounds familiar. -Yes.
-Karma. It's a five-year-old running with scissors.
