Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist

Zoey.

Miles, can you say Zoey?

He cannot. He's a baby.

- Zoey. - Oh, see, Grandma can do it.

Will you please bring me that carafe?

What's with the fancy plates today?

Did you forget?

Tonight is the first night of your birthday week.

It's not a thing.

Even if it was a thing,

I don't need a whole week.

I don't need a whole day.

It's so soon after Dad, I don't...

I don't want people making a fuss over me.

You're turning 30.

It is a big deal.

And you know what your father would say

if he were here right now.

Bigger moments, bigger memories.

That is correct.

I'm sure he'd be

setting up the fireworks display

and hiring a marching band.

Putting a jumpy castle up in the backyard.

Yeah, that was the best 21st birthday

a boy could ever ask for.

Okay, you know what? I guess it wouldn't be

the worse idea to honor his legacy

with an engagement that some might classify

- as a party. - Yes!

Okay, I'm thinking something like

the parties you and Dad used to throw.

Can we do it here?

Yes, yes. Absolutely. I would love that.

We can hire a caterer, and maybe set up a bar

in the dining room.

- Thank you. - I'll do the flowers, and...

if all this sounds okay to you.

It actually sounds kind of great.

Hey, so, uh...

How do you plan on filling this place?

I mean, it's a pretty big house,

and don't you have, like, six friends?

Excuse you, me.

I have a lot of close relations I'll be inviting

to this party.

In fact,

I might have to limit the guest list.

Hey, Alicia.

You don't happen to have plans Saturday night, do you?

I didn't know you knew my name.

Of course I do.

Hey, you want to come to my birthday party?

It's not my actual birthday. That's the next day.

But Saturday is historically the hottest party night of the week.

So, you in?

As like a caterer or something?

No, as one of my main peeps.

Oh, okay. Yeah, sure, I'll come to your party.

Great.

Morning.

What are we smiling about?

"Tech Assurance Weekly" just came out

with their annual list of the most influential voices in tech,

and you are looking at influential voice number 27.

Whoa.

That is huge! Congratulations.

Thank you. It's cool. Tatiana put me up for it.

She's pretty much been acting like my publicist these days.

So, I know you're really popular...

- I mean... - But please tell me,

you don't have a "Save the World" gala

on Saturday night, because I'm having a 30th birthday party.

So feel free to save the world any other night

but that night, please.

See if we can accommodate, um...

moving saving the world to next week.

Free now.

Can't wait.

Thank you.

I have two announcements.

First, I'm having a birthday party on Saturday.

You all should be receiving invitations shortly.

Quick party-related question.

What man-to-lady ratio are we talking about?

Depends on how many women you invite.

On it.

Announcement number two comes from Danny Michael Davis himself.

He wants us to "turn the page"

and move into a new chapter at Sprqpoint

by revamping our signature phone.

He's opened up the pitches to the entire company,

but how amazing would it be if the new idea

came from engineering?

Whoa, whoa. Leif's at a birding conference all week.

How can we do this without him?

Easily. My Robot Wars Team

brought home the Golden Sprocket three years in a row.

I can think of something.

So can I.

I'm actually thinking of something right now.

Well, I look forward to seeing what you come up with,

and also to seeing all of you

at my party.

Thank you for coming on such short notice.

We are newly committed to fire safety here at Maximo,

and we felt it best to add another alarm.

Thoughts?

You're good to go.

But you probably didn't need a certified fire marshal

to come all the way out here for that.

Better safe than sorry, right?

It is.

But if what you really wanted was to see me again,

you could have just asked me on a proper date.

Huh.

Could have done that.

I would have said yes.

Hope to hear from you soon.

You look happy.

I just love a hot man with a clipboard.

My God. Mm.

- Is that a thing? - Mm-hmm.

There she is, almost-birthday girl.

What are we doing this year, huh?

Going back to the Exploratorium

where more people could judge us

for not being there with a child?

Okay, not this year. This year...

I've decided to throw a big blow-out party.

But it's going to be very tasteful.

- Wow. - Max, hi.

Oh, oh, one second.

- Hi, hey. - Hi.

I'm so sorry. I'm so late.

You're not going to believe what happened to me.

- Tell me. - Okay. So I thought I was

getting on the 580, but I was getting on the 280.

So then I ended up on the wrong side of the Bay Bridge...

- Oh, my God. - Right?

And then this really nice hippie gave me directions

and this worry stone.

- Any takers? - Me!

Ooh, Mo. Cute top. Nice to meet you.

Put this directly in your cubby.

- You know why. - Yes, please.

Rose, this is my uh...

This is Zoey,

and Zoey, this is Rosanna.

Or Rose. We went to sleepaway camp together.

We did. For six summers, and he had a giant crush on me.

Oh, wow, you don't say?

Okay, settle down.

I believe it was a mutual crush,

and I'm not the one who went on a night hike with...

What was his name again?

- The tall kid. - Yeah, with the...

- Josh Goldstein. - Yes!

He's in jail now.

Oh, cool.

So, how do you two know each other?

Oh, Max and I met at Sprqpoint.

We actually started on the same day, and...

It's actually kind of a funny story.

Come over here.

Okay. All right. I'll wait.

I can do that.

Uh, sorry.

But, where was I?

Oh, right. Um...

Max and I have been friends, you know, and stuff, ever since.

Great.

We were just gonna grab a table

and get some dinner, if you want to join us.

No, thank you, um...

I have a lot of big party planning to do.

Well, it was really nice to meet you, Zoey.

You too.

- I've got us the best table they had. - No big deal, right?

And the biggest chair.

Is it just me, or does it seem

like those two are really trying to...

I don't know what the worst part was.

How they sang together, or how they...

Danced together.

Or, how Max looked at her

when they were singing and dancing together.

Mm, I get it.

I hate when I see white people dance, too.

But when's the last time you and Max

talked about your relationship status?

What are you talking about?

Well, clearly he's thinking of somebody else,

and to be fair, you've also been thinking of somebody else.

I have? Who?

What about that cute Australian boy toy of yours?
