ROBERT: Previously on Brothers & Sisters...
We have to stop. You're Rebecca's brother.
Julia took Elizabeth and left,
and I can't seem to get an answer as to when or if she's coming back.
I wanted to talk to you about Joe. And the kiss.
Oh, please. We are so past that.
I may have led him on a little bit.
Did you tell Jason about you and Scotty's little "slumber party"?
No, actually.
You are beyond pathetic.
You spend so much time trying to get somebody to love you,
- that you can't help anybody. - That's enough!
I can't do this to my family. I'm sorry if I hurt you.
Can you just go?
I don't want to wait to get married. I want to get married now.
"From This Moment, A Moment Like This,
"Because You Loved Me..." Because You Loved Me?
Now how is that a good wedding song? It's past tense.
Oh, perfect for my marriage.
Shouldn't your fiancé be doing this?
Well, I guess the second time around, it sort of loses its allure.
Yeah, it's kind of like going through the steps again.
Speaking of which, I need to apologize to Rebecca.
- Yeah, she probably hates you. - Oh, no, no.
No one expects you to be warm and fuzzy at your own intervention.
Here, who wants a cookie?
Mom, how's it going looking for a dress?
It's so depressing.
Every single mother-of-the-bride dress is either beige or bedazzled.
There's all these necks and sleeves and jackets and things.
You get to be a certain age and they try to desex you.
I mean, I might as well be dressed in beige paper
and headed off towards the recycling bin.
- How about Old Blue Eyes? - That's a good idea.
No. We can't, we can't.
Because Robert's first wedding
was practically Sinatra-themed.
What about that beautiful song by the Dixie Chicks?
At a Republican candidate's wedding?
Well, if you rule out every Democrat,
you're basically left with Ted Nugent, Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top.
Well, I'm a Democrat and I lost my virginity to She's Got Legs.
- Sarah! - Wow, crossing the line, Sarah.
- Mine was the Dirty Dancing theme. - Honestly.
- No! - Wow. Be gayer.
Awesome.
I bet Kitty's was talk radio.
Hey. Justin?
Don't look at me, I'm not having this conversation in front of Mom.
- Oh, please. Pink Floyd's The Wall. - Come on.
- Gabby Kliner. The 10th grade. - You heard that?
TOMMY: Thanks.
I have two first-sex soundtracks, girl and guy.
Okay, now stop! Stop, you guys, please.
- You're ruining all music for me. - Sorry I'm late.
What's up, buddy?
Robert, what song did you lose your virginity to?
Mom!
Well, we're just trying to figure out our wedding song.
Interesting methodology. Um, Endless Love.
ALL: Aw.
Yeah, okay. Bad news.
I spoke to Jason and he can't come to the wedding.
You spoke with Jason?
Yeah. Briefly, and then the other day we got completely cut off.
The other day?
I haven't spoken to him in weeks and he's called you twice?
He was going to be my best man.
Oh, well, the next time you two chat,
maybe you could tell him his committed, monogamous,
yet highly sought-after boyfriend says hi.
So, does everybody know that Kitty has us scheduled for dance lessons?
Ballroom dancing? Kitty, please.
Come on, Tommy. I'm not that bad.
(ALL SNIGGERING)
I've got it, I've got it. Pretty Woman.
No, thanks, Mom, but that will make me come off a little conceited.
No, no, no.
I mean, that was my first-time song. I can't believe I remembered that.
Mom, we don't need a picture of you and Dad.
- Who said anything about Dad? - What?
KITTY: What? JUSTIN: Mom!
Wait a minute. Wait a minute,
- I thought Dad was your first. - No.
SARAH: I thought Dad swept you off your feet
- when you were barely 18. - No.
Mom, you slut.
It was the '60s.
It was this guy I'd known in high school, Stan Harris.
He got drafted and went off to Canada.
It was in the back seat of his dad's Cutlass.
- SARAH: Well... - Oh, my God.
And he was tall and I was short, so we had to open...
- We'll talk tomorrow. - TOMMY: That's my cue.
- KEVIN: Yeah. Absolutely. - Fine. Fine.
Fine, so what? I guess I've just never had sex before?
(NEW AGE MUSIC PLAYING)
- That doesn't look safe. - It lowers your blood pressure.
Yep. So does a glass of wine, with far less risk of paralysis.
- Why aren't you working? - I'm on days.
We could go back to writing notes if actual conversation is too weird.
Oh, sorry. No messages.
(SIGHS)
Of course not.
Do you want to be my date for Kitty's wedding?
- Oh, how appealing. A spite invite? - No.
Yes. A little. You know, going to a wedding alone is torture.
What about Jason?
Reverend God-Forbid-l-Call-You-Back won't be there.
Yeah. But his brother, Robert, will. What will he think?
Who cares? Mia Tellos is catering.
They're serving those little Gorgonzola
and potato pizzas with saffron and sage.
- You had me at Gorgonzola. - Thought so.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
- Kitty. Hi. - Hi.
I'm sorry, I hope I didn't wake you up.
No, no. I've been up for awhile.
- Did you want to come in? - Sure.
Yeah, come on in.
- Is Justin okay? - Yeah, actually.
- You know, he's doing much better. - Oh, good.
And, you know what? Thank you, by the way,
for letting everybody know what was going on.
And I know he said some really awful things to you.
No. He said awful things to everyone, so...
Actually, he did. But...
You know, it's just... If it hadn't been for you,
we wouldn't have been able to help him and...
So, anyway, the reason that I'm here is...
And there's no pressure, and you can definitely say no
if you feel uncomfortable,
but I just wondered if maybe by any chance
you would want to be one of my bridesmaids.
Oh, my God.
Well, I didn't even know if I'd be invited to the wedding.
Are you crazy? Well, of course, of course you're invited to the wedding.
You're my sister.
Oh.
Well, is Sarah okay with it? I mean...
Yeah, you know, who cares?
She'll be fine. It's...
Yes, no, maybe? You can think about it if you want...
- Yeah! I'd love to. - Really?
- Yeah. - That's great.
- Should we hug? - Sure.
- Okay. - Okay.
Graham has quite a reputation for growing mid-size companies.
Well, Graham, reputation aside,
Ojai's not looking to hire any outside consultants at this time.
Right. Well, that's usually the first response.
Saul tells me that you want to branch out into the organic market.
Yes, that's something that we've been considering.
Well, let me give you some free advice.
Don't. Every other vendor's already noticed that trend.
So, you're a little behind the curve there.
And frankly, Sarah, overhauling our farming practices
would cost a hell of a lot more than hiring a private consultant.
Graham has some ideas about the international market.
Well, that's right. Namely, China.
It's a booming economy, it's an expanding middle-class...
I've read all the same journals that you have.
Well, actually, I just came back from there.
- Have you been? - No, I haven't.
Well, you got to go.
The upscale markets in Shanghai just can't handle the demand.
Just the word "California"
transforms the everyday grape into a luxury item.
Well, just the word "China" for me conjures up logistical nightmare
and Ojai doesn't have the human resources
to overcome international licensing, tariffs...
Yeah, well, that's just what I do.
I mean, I can help you navigate that whole thing.
Exactly. And then we create a special division
of Ojai to handle foreign sales.
Leave your proposal. I'll call you if I have any questions.
Okay. Well, thanks for your time, Sarah.
- Great to meet you. - Thanks for the free advice.
GRAHAM: I'll be in touch.
Okay, great. I will fax you a price list. Bye.
Hey. How you doing?
I have been fielding phone calls all morning.
Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we hire Lena to do that?
- Well, she's probably running late. - Is she?
Or are you guys doing that thing you do
where she comes five minutes after you, so that I don't know
- that the two of you... - No, no, no.
I ended things with her.
Should we be looking for a new office manager?
Sorry, I stopped for pastries.
Tommy, I got your favorite, bear claws.
(PHONE RINGS)
Walker Landing? Yeah, he's right here. It's your wife.
Julia, hey. What's up?
JULIA: Elizabeth wanted to talk to her daddy.
Yeah. Put her on.
(BAB Y BABBLIN G)
Hey, honey.
(DOOR OPENS)
(BAB Y SQUEALING)
Hi.
- Oh, my God. - I was going to call yesterday,
but I thought a surprise would be surprising.
- Wow, it's so good to see you. - Yeah, you, too.
And her. Oh, my God, she's so big. Hi.
Welcome home, Julia. She's incredible.
- Thanks. The place looks so good. - Thanks.
(BAB Y LAUGHING)
This is Lena, our office manager.
Oh, of course. Hi. It's nice to put a face to the voice.
Yeah.
- Oh. - All right, well.
I'm going to leave for the day and get them settled.
Take as much time as you need.
- Thanks, Holly. - Yeah.
- Sure. - TOMMY: All right. Let's go.
Okay.
- Bye, it was nice to meet you, Lena. - Come on.
- You, too. - I'll check in later.
You still want the job?
You might want to re-think the work wardrobe.
Saul, do you remember Stan Harris?
SAUL: Of course I remember him.
Mother was convinced that he was going to ruin you.
That's because I told her we were going to travel around the country
in his Volkswagen bus and join a commune.
- I googled him. - You what?
Get this, he's a history teacher at Canyon Falls High. He's single.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Back up.
Since when does Google tell you what someone's marital status is?
I e-mailed him.
I couldn't help myself.
I might have been this whole other person if he hadn't gone to Canada.
He lives 15 minutes away. Can you believe it?
You know what? He asked me out to dinner.
That's impressive.
I shouldn't go. God, not in a million years.
We'll have nothing to talk about.
What if he looks old, what if he thinks I look old?
Oh, Nora, come on. You don't look that old.
And then again, what have I got to lose?
I mean, there's history there.
What if that same old spark still exists? It could still exist, you know that.
I know that? What are you doing, Nora?
What?
I told you that I didn't want to talk about this.
That I needed time to talk about this.
You want me to get in touch with that guy
- that I told you about, is that it? - No.
Is that why you're mentioning Stan Harris?
I brought up Stan because I wanted to talk to you about Stan.
- Yeah, right. - Don't get me wrong.
I do think we have to talk about this.
I mean, you can't tell me that you were in love with a man once,
and then we never discuss it again.
We have to talk about it eventually.
You know what, Nora? I gotta go.
Well, Saul. Should I... Should I go? Should...
(TAN GO PLA YIN G)
Oh, well, you know, they're just showing off, right?
I can tell you, we're not going to be doing anything like that.
(MUSIC ENDS)
Wow!
Wow, that was really, really good.
That was amazing. And thank you.
But I don't think that we're going to be needing anything...
Don't worry about it, Senator. We'll adjust the steps to your song.
Oh. Well, you know what?
We don't even really have a song, yet.
We just want to learn a couple of steps,
so we don't look like complete morons at our wedding.
- Exactly. - Okay. Whatever you wish.
Martena, just play a slow foxtrot, please.
Just watch it once.
(INS TRUMEN TAL MUSIC PLA YIN G)
It is slow, slow. Quick, quick.
Let's try it all in one line. Starting with the left foot. And slow...
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So it's left, right, and then which side?
No, no. For you, Kitty, it's the opposite.
(CELL PHONE RIN GS)
- You see, you go right... - Excuse me.
...left, side together. - Hello?
So... Oh, it's the... I didn't...
- Nobody told me that. - No problem.
- That's what we're here for. - Okay.
- Let's see. - Yeah, and I'll get back. Thank you.
- Right, left, and then to the side. - Good.
- That's good, but to the other side. - The other side.
That was the majority leader.
Yeah, well, you're in the minority party, so you can call him back.
- All right. Let's try it facing each other. - Okay.
Kitty, his face is much more attractive than your feet.
Head up, please. Slow, slow. Quick, quick.
- Senator, you're a natural. - Thank you.
Kitty, please. Stop leading.
Oh, sorry. I'm sorry, you know,
- it's just my nature. But I'm trying. - Okay.
This is going to take a long time, isn't it?
You know what? He just gave us the steps like three seconds ago.
They're two votes down on SR 7550.
Don't you think I should spend some time on that?
You know what? You never told me you could dance.
You know, inaugurals. State dinners.
And first weddings, right? I get it.
I think I have the steps in order.
You should stay, rehearse. Reschedule.
I'll make the time. Promise. Thank you. I appreciate it, but I've got to go.
Okay, Kitty. Let's dance.
Five, six, seven, eight. Slow. Good, good.
Hey. Sorry about the mess.
If I would've known you were coming, I would've cleaned up.
- It's okay. - Yeah, I guess I reverted.
You're allowed. I'm sorry I was gone so long.
You had a lot to sort out.
I just... I wish I could take back so many things I said.
I know. Me, too.
Can we go back to the way things were?
I want to. So bad. You have no idea.
I come with decadence.
Wow! What happened? Did you rob the Long Beach Aquarium?
We had a chichi six-year-old birthday party at the restaurant.
Little Mermaid theme. Turns out the kids couldn't bear to eat Sebastian.
The Mermaid's best friend?
Anyhow, their drama, our dinner.
Great. Would Sebastian like a little melted butter on the side?
- I don't know, but I would. - Marvelous.
- Light some candles, I'll be right back. - Oh, candles?
I mean, it's just takeout when you think of it.
Yeah, sure. Yeah, sure. No candles.
Well, we can still have champagne, right?
Sure.
- Hey, Sarah. - Hey.
Is Kitty here?
Oh, she'll be down in a minute.
So are you the maid of honor?
Well, I'm certainly not the matron of honor.
Oh, I'm sorry.
- Okay, well? - Oh, wow.
(GASPS)
- What do you think? - Wow.
- Gorgeous. - Really?
Yeah, it's got this great '60s vibe to it. I mean...
- That's because it's from the '60s. - Well, is it too '60s?
No. No, I think it's classic.
No, no. What I meant by that is it's very Jackie O.
I don't know if that's the look I'm going for on my wedding day.
I mean, that's not even the right political party.
Oh! Oh! Oh, you look gorgeous.
- Really? - Just gorgeous.
Speaking of gorgeous, Mom. Where are you going?
- Well, yeah. - Oh, just dinner with a friend.
Honey, this is so exciting.
We'll take you tomorrow to the alterations person.
- And just, you know... - Okay.
...a few tiny little things. - Okay.
It's exciting. I have to go.
- It's so exciting. - Have fun.
Let's see.
Well, you know, I think there actually really is something amazing
- about the history of this dress. - SARAH: Yeah. Yeah.
And it's free.
- Can't beat that. - Wow. Is that Mom's dress?
Yeah. It's great. Right?
Yeah. Looks good.
Can I steal Rebecca for a second?
Look, Justin, I know what you're doing,
and I just want you to know that it's fine. I'm fine.
Look, it's not fine, okay? I feel horrible about what I said.
- It was hurtful and it was mean. - And some of it was true.
I was angry. Okay, I took a cheap shot at you.
You are not pathetic. I'm pathetic, okay?
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be getting clean.
I'm just happy you're getting the help that you need. You know?
I want you to know how important you are to me.
And how deeply, deeply sorry I am.
Hmm. Wow.
You're really good at this whole making amends thing, aren't you?
I've had some practice.
(CELL PHONE RIN GS)
Excuse me.
Hello?
Yeah. How are you?
Sure, yeah. That sounds great. I'll see you there. All right, bye.
That was your friend Lena.
- What did... What'd she want? - Oh, she just asked me out for coffee.
(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
(INSTRUMENTAL GUITAR MUSIC PLAYING)
- Hi, I'm looking for someone. - Right over here.
Stan?
- Nora? Hi. - Hi, I'm sorry I'm late.
- Oh. No, no, no. - No?
About 10 minutes.
The traffic in this city is absolutely impossible.
You can't get anywhere ever.
If you're invited to go someplace between the hours of 5:00 and 7:00,
I have to tell them, "No, I'm sorry.
"You can't get there from here, you just can't..."
I'm here.
- You look beautiful. - Yeah, well.
Don't look too close, my neck looks like someone's bedroom curtains.
Hey, listen. I gained 20 pounds and I've got an artificial hip.
- Really? - No. Kidding.
(LAUGHS)
- I'm sorry. I'm a little bit nervous. - I'm nervous, too.
- I can't believe you e-mailed me. - Did I do that?
You did.
Where do we even start?
- How about a pitcher of margaritas? - Yes.
- STAN: We're at this immigration rally. - Right.
You know, all my kids. I mean, my class.
There's this one, Alonzo, he's really smart.
But he's, you know, a little unfocused.
And I'm watching him, I'm seeing that he's a little bit affected by this.
Maybe a lot. And I'm thinking, "This is why I do this."
He's starting to think.
He wants to demand his right to be heard.
- You know? And just at that moment... - Yeah.
...he gets on the stage... - Yeah.
...drops his pants and moons the governor.
- Oh, no. Oh, no. - Yeah.
I didn't want him to feel humiliated, so I get up and I join him.
Oh, God. That's horrible. What happened?
Well, you know, I spent a night in detention, paid a fine.
Alonzo, I think, is running for president of the school now.
Well, good for him. I spent a night in jail.
Well, I got caught smoking a joint with my girlfriend in her car, Emily Kraft.
- Krafty? - Yeah.
You never liked grass, so when did you pick up that habit?
Never. Are you kidding?
Since last you saw me all I've been doing is raising kids
and being married to a Republican, so...
Yeah. I knew that.
- So, you never got married? - No.
I came close a couple of times,
but I don't think I ever really found the right person.
Yeah. The right person.
What are you doing tomorrow night?
I'm sorry. I know, you got plans. It's too soon. I'm just...
No. No, my goodness, at this age almost nothing is too soon.
Yes. Let's do it. Let's go out.
Good, 'cause I couldn't stand to wait another 40 years.
Kevin.
KEVIN: Mmm.
Kevin, go to bed.
Actually, could you take your foot out? It's digging right...
Oh, sorry.
... of running into you?
Standing out on the edge
Searching for proof
I should go to my air mattress.
Staring up at the stars
Waiting for God
To show me the way
To your home
Yeah, you should.
Well, I found you again
REBECCA: I really like that on you.
Come on, I look like a giant tangerine.
(CELL PHONE RIN GS)
I got to take that, I'm working.
Wait, I'm going to get a couple more dresses.
Sarah Walker.
GRAHAM: Hey, it's Graham Finch.
Listen, I've been thinking about our meeting.
I hope I didn't come on too strong.
Bulldozer isn't your normal speed?
Well, that's me, you know. I'm aggressive.
When I see something I want, I go for it.
That's why you want me.
Oh, now I want you.
It's a figure of speech.
So what are you doing tonight? You want to have some dinner?
- I have plans. - Well, then how about tomorrow night?
Listen, just give me an hour and if I can't convince you,
you'll never see me again. What do you say?
Okay. Tomorrow night it is.
Great. See you then.
Oh, that's a pretty color.
- What do you think of this one? - Okay. Great.
Oh, wow. That color is so much better.
- Really? - Oh, totally.
Yeah, how come you're not bringing anybody to the wedding?
Oh, you know. It's been a bit of a dry spell lately.
Dry spell? That doesn't sound like you.
What does that mean?
It's just that when I think of you, I don't think of dry spell.
You know, I do know a couple of really cute guys in my office.
- Do you have a type? - No, I don't really have a type.
Except for married men, right, Sarah? That's what you were going to say.
- No. No, she wasn't. - I would never say that.
Well, there goes that foot in my mouth again.
SARAH: It's not that I don't think about it occasionally.
It's just that I've long stopped obsessing about you,
Joe and my divorce.
What I'm currently obsessed about is Kitty,
her wedding and which dress she's going to force me to wear.
Right, Kit?
This is it. This is the one.
Oh, my God.
Can you believe it? It's perfect.
It's perfect.
What about Mom's dress?
Oh, well, no. No, I mean it would be the one if I didn't already have the one.
- But... Oh, my God. - Oh, right.
- Just try it on. - No, no. I can't. I can't.
It would be cheating. I shouldn't even be looking at it.
Oh, come on. Looking's not cheating. Is it, Rebecca?
Oh, my God.
- Hey. - Hey.
- You going to the gym? - Yeah, I have to.
Working in the kitchen demands it or you end up, you know, with...
I know, with love handles. Like me.
I think we've already established I have no problems with your body.
Nor I, yours.
- Look, about last night... - You don't have to say anything.
I know what happened, you were vulnerable.
Your boyfriend's a million miles away
and I was a warm body after lobster dinner.
Add champagne and voilà. Mistake sex.
What if it wasn't a mistake?
Kevin, you don't have to make me feel better
by turning yesterday's nostalgic sex romp into something that it wasn't.
I'm not. Believe me, I'm not.
Yes, of course I miss him. You know, why wouldn't I?
He's not calling me, but it's like what we had,
he's put into this compartment
and now he's gone back to his first love, which is God.
Or the church or something, I don't know.
But it's certainly not me.
You don't know that. When people are far away, they...
Look, I know how I feel. So just let me feel that way. It hurts.
Hey. It'll be all right. I promise.
I'm not so sure.
NORA: What is this?
We go on a lovely picnic at the beach
and then you bring me out here for what? A gang initiation?
- Take a closer look. - All right.
(GIRL OF THE NORTH CO UN TRY PLAYING ON RADIO)
Oh! It's Jones Hall.
We saw Dylan here.
- Yeah. - Oh, my God.
Yeah. The memory of that night
has gotten me through a lot of cold winters in Toronto.
It was my first time, you know?
(LAUGHS)
It was our first time. I lied.
I didn't want you to think I didn't know what I was doing.
Oh, Stan, I was so madly in love with you.
Why did you leave? You ran off to Canada.
You left everything. Your family, your friends, me.
- I wasn't enough for you. - What are you talking about?
You love the fight you can't win.
You already had me. I mean, even then I knew I wasn't a challenge.
- I wasn't looking for a challenge. - Weren't you?
No.
You married a rich Republican.
Somebody you can always argue with.
Oh.
We're different. I don't like the fight. I'm committed to the cause.
Stan, will you come see my life? Meet my kids?
Will you come with me to my daughter's wedding?
I'd be honored.
Will your mother be there?
- Yeah. - Oh, boy.
Oh, God, I love this song still.
So do I.
In the darkness of my night
(PHONE RIN GS)
Why are you calling me at home?
Hey, I just checked your office voice mail
and your brunch meeting canceled.
Oh.
Yeah, and listen, by the way,
I'm not going to be bothering you with personal calls.
I'm not that dense. So just relax.
I'm sorry. Thanks.
Have a good weekend.
- Who's calling so early? - That was the office.
They canceled my meeting, so I could make breakfast.
I wouldn't have pegged you for a half-caff.
I would've assumed an extra shot.
- Yeah, well, I'm working on moderation. - Really?
That doesn't sound like the guy I met at the bar.
- I guess Rebecca didn't tell you. - No.
I'm in recovery.
I was taking pain medication for my leg and pretty soon after
I just started taking it just to take it.
And now I've been in detox for a few weeks
and going to meetings, talking to my sponsor
and if you want to run, I completely understand.
No, listen. I don't get scared off that easy.
I'm a pathetic loser who dates a married guy
and then gets surprised and bummed when I get dumped.
Wow. That sucks.
Yeah, well, it was kind of doomed from the start, you know?
I want you to know that I'm a terrible choice for a rebound guy.
I mean, not assuming, you know, that this is anything past coffee or...
No. Go ahead. Assume.
I just, you know, I shouldn't get involved while I'm getting sober.
I still have nightmares about combat.
My leg's still looks pretty gnarly from my injury,
I don't have a job and I live with my mom.
- You can stop. You're an awful choice. - Yeah.
So, how about just being, you know, my rebound caffeine buddy?
Well, as long as you don't mind the half-caff.
No. Not at all.
- Slow, slow. Quick, quick. - Quick, quick.
You know, it's tough to replace a quarter of the staff.
But Bukarski comes highly recommended.
He worked for Phipps.
- Yeah, we can't have that. - Okay. Well, there's Donnelly,
but I hear he's a bit of a screamer.
- Why are you stepping on my feet? - Travis's voice keeps boring
into the part of my brain that is trying to keep count.
I wasn't aware you had that part.
Oh, would you shut up, Travis?
Kitty, have you been practicing like I told you?
Yes. What is the part that comes after back left?
- Side right. - Side right.
Oh. Well, you know what?
Maybe you guys should just have the first dance together.
- What about Benitez? - Yeah.
You know what? You know what? Let's just forget the whole thing.
I mean, clearly you're busy, I'm busy and you're just not interested.
- And why should you be? - Kitty, come on, it's just a dance.
No! It is not just a dance! It is a dance that you've had before!
For a ceremony that you've had before!
And I'm going to be wearing a used dress.
And you know what? I just thought it would be nice
for us to have a dance that was ours.
But you know what? You're right.
It's just too much to ask to have a first at my own wedding!
And shut up, Travis!
So, should we clean this up or should we just, like,
sort of let it sit and blend in with the rest of your place?
Hey. So, now you're making fun of my apartment?
No, are you kidding me? I'm having mess envy, for God's sake.
I mean, rebellion in my house is like leaving a crumb on the table.
No wonder you turned to drugs.
So, what are your other vices besides being kind of a slob?
Oh. Well, coffee, definitely.
- Wine. Clothes shopping. - I see that.
Yes. Oh.
(CELL PHONE RIN GIN G)
- Hang on. - Sure.
- Hey. - Look, Justin's in recovery.
I know. Listen, can I call you back?
- Oh, why? Is Justin there? - Yeah.
- Oh, my God. - Yeah.
- Why don't I just talk to you tomorrow? - Okay.
Wow.
What was all that about, if you don't mind my asking?
Lena.
Thought you were talking about Justin.
You know, she asked him out, Mom.
She did?
Yeah. And it's really not that I care,
it's just he's not supposed to be dating anyone right now.
Wait until Kitty and Sarah find out.
It's not like they don't judge me enough already.
I really don't need them blaming me for this.
Sweetie, this is hardly your fault.
Tell that to them. I mean, Kitty is so intimidating.
Sarah's constantly paranoid that she's making these digs at me.
I keep humiliating myself.
Rebecca, stop second-guessing yourself.
- It's not that easy, Mom. - I know that it's not that easy.
But this shrinking violet that you're becoming?
That's not my daughter.
I mean, you never used to care what people thought about you.
You didn't worry about what you said or what you didn't say.
I admire that about you. Even when you do that with me.
Do that with them.
So, wait, no. You're telling me you haven't seen Blades of Glory?
- No, I haven't. - Oh, my word.
You have to see this. I have the DVD. We can watch it tonight.
You know what? I should probably get out of here.
Oh. Okay. I hope I didn't scare you off or anything.
No. I'm having a great, great time.
I just... I'm worried if I stay too long, that my sponsor will get pissed off.
And he's kind of a big dude. Lot of tats. You know?
- No. - Frightening.
I totally get that you should put your recovery first.
Okay. Thanks.
You know, we'll wait for the right time.
- All right. Cool. - Cool.
Cool.
Screw it.
(JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)
Here. Try the lemon scallops. Amazing.
I prefer the orange chicken.
Oh! This duck sauce is amazing.
I can really taste the peaches and the plums.
Oh, I get it.
Everything that we've been eating features produce that we grow at Ojai.
- Very good. - Oh, here I was,
- I thought I was being very subtle. - I'm just very smart.
Well, then you'll hear what I'm saying.
See, a billion people eat this food every day.
Don't you think it would taste a lot better coming from your orchards?
Of course.
But you're not going to charm me into a deal.
Not that you're not charming. It's just there's something about you.
I don't know if it's the Italian suit or the fast-talk of easy money
and international markets. Maybe it's the perfect pedigree.
- Perfect... - It's just all too smooth to be true.
- I'm suspicious. - First of all,
I wasn't born into this suit, okay?
When I walked into Ojai,
I was not convinced that I would close the deal.
I just thought that if you heard what I had to say,
you'd see it was a sound decision,
something that's good for Ojai and for your family. That's it.
Look, honestly? It's enticing.
But Ojai can't afford that kind of risk exposure
and I can't jeopardize a company that my father built.
No matter the growth potential.
So what if I told you I have a guy
that can get Ojai in the market access program?
Government subsidies?
I tailor your company's profile so it's exactly what they're looking for.
USDA wants to increase its agricultural exports,
why not let them help pay for it?
Who knows? We structure this deal right,
there might even be enough left over for me
to take you on a private tour of Beijing.
Okay.
Get me more information on the program.
I'll need to see the forecasts. If the numbers excite me, we'll talk.

Hello. Jason?
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! I've missed you!
No, no. I'm sorry. No, it's just your voice.
You... Well, why haven't you called me?
No, no. Of course I know the service is spotty.
No, I'm good. I'm good. I just...
Yeah, I... Well, I needed to talk to you, too.
- Cleaning or packing? - Packing.
A friend offered me her couch. I think it'll be easier this way.
Yeah, you're right. It will be easier.
But difficult is sometimes good, you know?
Forces you to do things you didn't think you could.
Oh, we can do it, Kevin. We always seem to end up doing it.
What we never seem to understand is that it gets us nowhere.
I finally spoke with Jason.
- Good. I'm glad. I... - I broke up with him.
Kevin, why do you always have to be such a drama queen?
So he didn't call you for a couple of weeks.
It's not that.
Scotty, when I first met you, I thought we were too...
Kevin, if you're about to romanticize what we had, just...
I'm not. That's the whole point.
Because what we had was... It was messy.
You know? We were hot and cold and back and forth.
All over the place. But I want to be back there with you.
Because I want to be honest about who I am.
- Did you tell Jason we slept together? - Yes, I did.
Look, I know I'm asking way too much of you.
But like I said, easy isn't all it's cracked up to be.
It's gone. Yep. Yep, it's gone. It's gone.
- The one is gone. - Oh.
Well, at least Mom won't be heartbroken.
- Well, that's true. - You know, I think it's a shame.
I think you should wear whatever you want on your wedding day.
Oh. Okay, Rebecca.
Well, thank you very much, but you know what? It'll be fine.
Hey, it's just my opinion.
Well, my opinion is, we need to commit.
These dresses are fine.
What about Julia? Does she look good in blue?
- Julia looks good in anything. - Bitch.
All right, Rebecca, let's start with you. So what do you think?
Honestly, I don't know what sisters say in these situations,
but the only way that I'm ever going to be able to be myself around you two
is if I stop filtering everything.
So, to answer your question, Kitty, no.
No. I don't like this color on me.
- And I don't like it on Sarah. - You don't?
If you really want to know the dress that I would pick, it would...
Oh, my God.
- Well, Rebecca, don't stop now. - No, you're on a roll.
- Kitty, the one! - It's on sale.
(GASPS)
Oh, my God!
Oh.
Oh, my God, Rebecca.
Rebecca, do you really think I should wear what I want?
I do. Do you want to wear this dress?
I do.
I swear I didn't go out looking for it.
It was just there and then it went on sale and it just was fate...
- It was on sale? - Yeah, yeah.
I was just feeling that my whole wedding was being recycled.
And I just needed my something new and...
But, please, Mom, please don't be angry.
Honey, I'm not angry. It's fine. You don't have to wear my...
Good fine or is it passive-aggressive fine?
Sweetheart, I offered my dress to you as an option, not...
Well, I know, I know. When you found me in it the other day,
- you practically started weeping. - Oh, I did not!
- You're getting married... - Yes. You were very emotional.
...that makes me emotional! - You were like...
- I came in, you had my dress on... - Well, still...
...it brought back memories. - Yeah. I know, but still...
Listen to me. This is your wedding. Your memories to create.
Make your own choices, your own history.
You don't have to relive mine.
Wow.
Yeah.
I can't believe that you're being this cool.
I mean, it's not that I thought you would be uncool, but I just... I...
- Well, thanks. - It's beautiful.
Thank you, Mom. Thank you.
- It's beautiful, honey. It's beautiful. - Thanks, Mom.
- Kitty? - Uh-huh?
- You know what I did? - No. What did you do?
- I went out to dinner with Stan Harris. - Stan Harris.
My Pretty Woman Stan Harris.
(GASPS)
- Yeah. - Oh, my God. How was it?
It was fine. Good.
(CELL PHONE RIN GS)
If it's all right with you, I invited him to your wedding. Is that all right?
Yeah. Of course. Are you kidding?
It's great! Sorry. Honey, honey. Just hold on one second.
- Mom. Wait, Mom. - Yeah.
We're going to have to find you a very hot dress.
I think I have an idea.
You're going to dye this?
Something bold. Midnight blue, maybe.
- But this dress is a classic. - I know. I love it.
It's my history and I'm going to keep it.
Maybe it's time to hike up the hemline a little.
- Okay. - Okay.
Here we go.
Oh, hey!
I didn't think you'd still be here by now.
I figured you would've gone home to your family.
Yeah, I was just catching up on some paperwork.
So, you're going out.
Yeah. Got a date.
You're seeing somebody.
It happened a few days ago.
- Don't worry, I wasn't cheating. - No, I wasn't...
- Tommy, I'm joking. - Right.
Have a good night, Tommy.
This is way too big for a fundraiser.
I mean, there aren't even that many Republicans in LA.
- ROBERT: It's beautiful, isn't it? - Oh, yeah.
Oh, wait. No, no, no. No, wait. We have to...
They're rehearsing.
- No, come on. Let's listen. - No, no, no.
- We're late. We're late. We gotta go. - Come on.
Excuse me. Guys? Do you take requests?
Hello, Senator.
Is that Lyle Lovett?
What are you doing? No, what did you do?
Why do I feel like you're getting ready to propose to me?
We already did that. I already did that.
I know that I haven't been able to focus on the wedding.
And I know that you think it's because I've done this before.
And, yeah, we haven't been able to pick out our song.
But, you know, Kitty, any song that's even remotely romantic
reminds me of us.
You make everything new.
Would you like to dance?
You're insane. No, absolutely insane. I cannot believe you.
It's Sunday morning
The coffee's on
That gray cat's still yawning
Because Saturday is gone
Just for the record, this is a first for me, too.
I still feel the feeling
Of how you felt upon me
And it may be no big deal to you
But it's a very big deal to me
She said, "Man, it may be no big deal to you
"But it's a very big deal to me"
