Tea on the Beach

Dr. Bruce, telephone, please.

Dr. Bruce, telephone please...

New message.

Mi amor, I miss you.

Maybe we can leave Mija with my parents

and have a night to ourselves.

Call me when you have a minute, Te amo.

Hey.

I can't talk.

I have a showing.

Listen...

My clients are arriving any minute.

Eleanor, Mum passed.

What?

Bye, guys.

See you.

Hey.

I thought Papi was picking me up.

Oh, sorry to disappoint.

How was school?

Are you still working on that family tree project?

Mm-hmm.

Do you need my help?

Dad already told me everything.

Hmm.

Where's the new jacket I got you?

This is vintage.

Please, it's coming apart.

Can you just fix this?

I can't sew.

My mom could sew.

No.

Seriously?

Where did you get that?

Dad's secret stash.

What secret stash?

How long have these been here?

Abuela gives one to Papi every time we come over.

She says you won't buy us snacks because you

eat like a .

A what?

A bird.

Eat celery and peanut butter if you're hungry.

It'll actually fill you up.

Unlike this.

Buenas noches señoritas!

Hola papí. ¿Qué tal?

Ha sido un dia largo.

Estoy feliz de

estar en casa.

¿Cómo te fue hoy?

No mucho.

Hola, amor.

Celery and peanut butter?

Interesting choice.

Right?

Knife and plate, please.

This is looking good, mija.

Thanks.

I need more from mama's side, but I'll get there.

Oh, don't forget Lena's.

Dinner's almost ready.

I found your secret stash.

So have you thought any more about that commentator position?

Hmm, no need.

No need for?

Look, I'm flattered that producers want me,

but it's not what I want.

Besides, I don't want to move across the country,

pull Dahlia out of her school and away from her friends.

Oh, she would make new friends before we even

unpacked our boxes.

It's just so far away from our families.

OK, if you're not going to finish that,

do you want to take it to the fridge and wrap it up?

And I don't want her to be far from Lucia's family

as she gets older, in case she has any questions.

What does she care?

Abuela is not her family.

Mija.

That is not true.

I never said that.

How about you head upstairs, OK?

But first, please apologize to Mom.

I'm sorry.

But you're not my mom.

Hey, that was not OK.

I think this family tree thing is just

bringing a lot to the surface.

I don't think she really...

It's fine.

Don't worry.

No, it's not fine.

I said it's fine.

Sorry, I... it's been a long day.

I'm tired.

Did the showing go badly?

No, but they still want to see some other houses.

And I don't have any other options.

They can't get everything that they want with their budget.

And I'm not a magician.

I've seen you do some magic, hmm?

Not now.

Seriously, who died?

My mum.

Wait, really?

Lena, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

So sorry, amor.

Thank you.

Andy.

Andrew.

Sure.

Didn't know you were bringing the whole family.

What is this?

The yard.

Seriously?

Let me tell our geriatric father whose wife just died...

Oh, I'm sorry.

Am I not allowed to make observations?

It looks like Grey Gardens around here.

Hey, Esther.

How are you?

Hey, I'm OK.

How are you?

Good, good.

Let me help you with that.

Oh, thanks.

How was the ride?

Not too bad.

I like your dress.

Unbelievable.

Planning on moving in?

Right.

Well, on that note, I think it'd be best if you all

go to hotels for dad's sake.

He's easily confused on a good day.

Having a house full of people would be a disaster.

Is there at least a Hilton around?

Sadly, the Four Seasons down the street just closed.

Maybe we could relieve you of your post.

Watch over Ronald for a night or two.

Or at least for the evening, so you can stop at home.

I've got everything I need.

And Jen and the kids are out of town.

Oh.

Margaret?

Oh, no, that's not Margaret.

I'm Esther.

Your daughter.

And I'm Eleanor.

You may remember me.

This is my husband, Rafael, and our daughter, Dahlia.

Ow.

Thank you, Eleanor.

He's got memory loss.

He's not deaf.

OK, now that he's sufficiently lost his bearings,

everyone please go, OK?

Come on, Dad.

Let's go in.

Go.

I like your sunglasses.

Thanks.

I like your jacket.

Did you know it had gotten this bad?

I think Andrew's right.

It would be a full house.

So I was kind of planning on staying at the house,

and I hadn't really factored a hotel into my budget.

I'm in between jobs right now, so money's a bit tight.

Don't you have an emergency fund for things like this?

Not at the moment.

I'm working on building that up.

But...

Don't sweat it.

We've got it covered.

We look out for family.

Thank you.

I'll pay you back.

No worries.

Where's Dahlia?

Who's that?

My mum.

You look more like her, like a model or a movie star.

And is that your dad?

Mm-hmm.

Hello?

You're inside.

Why are you inside?

I want to stay here.

Certainly not.

You're staying at a hotel.

You'd have more fun there.

There's a pool.

I didn't pack a swimsuit.

Well, that's a shame.

Please?

Please?

Fine.
