The Arrangement

Previously on, The Arrangement...

This role will elevate you,

but we have to fight for it.

June, your story needs to be told by women.

I hope you make a strong bid.

I'm introducing something new.

It's called Vita, it's IHM's life extension program.

Aaron! Julie!

Aaron and Julie are gone.

Shit, Terence.

I swear to you, I didn't tell him anything.

That is so pathetic that I would actually think

that you would choose me over him.

We're getting married tomorrow!

We're gonna have to figure out what to do about her.

What did you have in mind?

I think we're gonna need a more permanent solution.

It's over. Terence has them.

What? No, Kyle wouldn't let that happen.

Yeah, who knows what Kyle would do.

Where are you right now?

Hey.

Listen, last night,

whatever it was for you... An escape, or...

It's fine with me.

And you don't wanna talk about what's going on...

I get that too.

I just wanna know you're okay.

I was hoping I'd wake up to a different life.

Something simpler.

You know, I got this Midwest tour coming up.

Life is simpler out there, slower.

Any chance you're leaving for that tour

in the next eight hours?

What happens in eight hours?

The wedding.

Your wedding, Megan?

Look, it's a long story.

You gotta tell me what's going on.

Did Kyle do something to you? Because that's unacceptable.

No, he... he didn't do anything to me directly,

but the whole thing is just

a nightmare.

And there's nothing I could do about it.

I have to go.

Go where? Back?

I don't have a choice.

You always have a choice.

Megan?

There she is.

Okay, stay close where I can see you.

Stay alert.

Definitely.

Smart...

A public place, a friend.

And my own protection,

in case someone thinks they're gonna put a bag over my head.

I'm here to help you...

Really help,

before you screw this whole thing up

more than you already have.

Forget it.

Wait.

Oh, my God, Xavier Hughes.

Holy shit, I love you so much!

- Can we take a picture? - Uh, yeah.

You have no power.

You lost it when you lost Aaron and Julie,

and that's a problem because Terence is furious.

Did he kill them?

I don't know what he's done.

He doesn't tell you, or you don't ask?

They're gone, one way or the other.

I wanna make sure the same thing doesn't happen to you.

I don't know why I should trust you.

Megan, you have nowhere to run.

Kyle can't protect you, you know this,

otherwise you wouldn't have come here.

What's your point, that I'm desperate?

That's not an answer that helps me.

Did you ever ask yourself how a nobody-waitress

got an audition to be in a movie with Kyle West?

Leslie got it for me.

No. I did.

I arranged everything.

I bet the future on you, Megan,

and I am not willing to lose.

Please stop pacing.

What?

It's wasted energy. It accomplishes nothing.

What are you accomplishing right now?

I have faith in DeAnn.

You know, we were gonna convince

Aaron and Julie not to go public?

You didn't have to take them,

and Megan would be here right now.

How'd you find them?

I'm not gonna trust you with information about the Woolths.

You understand why.

And you understand that I had to make a choice.

There were circumstances.

I wasn't trying to betray you.

I know. The only person you betrayed the other night was you.

Okay.

Better and lesser selves, my friend.

When you chose Megan, you chose the lesser.

The lesser? Are you kidding me right now?

Kyle, she took off the night before your wedding.

How does it not occur to you

that maybe you made the wrong choice?

Because I know who she really is.

No, I don't think you do.

You want proof that you're worthy of love,

and you are.

You don't need her. You don't need anybody.

She's here.

Where? I wanna see her.

No, no, no, that would be bad luck.

Go get yourself dressed.

You'll see her when she walks down the aisle.

How is she?

You're getting married today.

Go.

Thanks for the talk, bud.

What kind of shape is she in?

She's in one piece.

I did a lot of... cajoling.

But she bought it?

She's here.

She was with Xavier Hughes.

Jesus Christ.

What does he know?

According to her, nothing important.

Oh, well, we should definitely take her word for it.

I just wanna get through this.

Terence, I get that you're angry.

I'm angry too.

But you need to do more than just get through this wedding.

You need to make it great.

We're here to tell a love story.

A story of two souls,

neither with families of their own,

who roam the Earth in search of something

they could not name, nor describe.

They'd never actually seen it,

but each knew it was there, somewhere,

waiting for them.

They both suffered and lost hope,

but grew stronger with each setback

until both were so strong

they could not help but see each other.

And finally,

that unknown thing they had both been searching for

was staring back at them...

Intimacy,

truth, home,

family, consciousness.

As Kyle and Megan start their family today,

we are blessed to have them at the core of ours,

because their love story inspires us to strive

for something greater than ourselves...

Something higher.

These rings

are a symbol of your discovery,

and a reminder that your quest for fulfillment

does not end here today, but continues together.

Kyle,

do you pledge yourself to Megan as her husband?

Do you pledge to support her unconditionally,

to love her without restraint,

through joy and pain,

good fortune and adversity,

for the rest of your life?

I do.

Megan,

do you pledge yourself to Kyle as his wife?

Do you pledge to support him unconditionally,

to love him without restraint,

in joy and in pain,

good fortune and adversity,

for the rest of your life?

I do.

As we all stand here today,

witness to this moment,

bound together,

I pronounce you husband and wife.

You may kiss.

Ladies and gentlemen,

please welcome Kyle West and Megan Morrison.

I'm glad you're here.

Me too.

We're gonna have an amazing life together.

I love you.

I love you too.

Hey.

I just wanna say that, um,

I know that we have a lot to work through,

but the fact that you came back

and you wanna do this with me,

it really means a lot.
