You know, when you see your reflection in the floor,
that's how you know it's done.
I'm nervous. Cleaning calms me.
Come on, Nora. Tommy's coming home.
That's a good thing.
Don't! Don't step on my wet floor. Please.
Put the flowers over there.
And, Saul.
Mm-hmm.
Tommy said he had a surprise for us.
Do you know what it is? I have no i...
Oh. What the hell is this?
Oh, I framed that for you.
We all look so young.
Nora, we were young. Yeah.
Listen, this picture was taken by a Detective,
not Annie Leibovitz. William had us followed?
That's inconceivable to me.
I wasn't even married to him at the time,
and William had Brody and me followed.
All right, so tell me, why are you giving me this photo?
Well, because I think it's a good picture of you.
That is ridiculous. You keep this.
You're the one who's obsessed with Brody.
That's not true. Okay, fine.
I'll keep it.
That's probably Brody on the phone.
You better go get it. Will you stop it?
Go get the phone. Okay, I'm coming. I'm coming. I'm coming.
Hello. Tommy! It's Tommy.
Tommy's landed.
So, um...
Do you want to tell me what the surprise is now?
All right. Fine. No, that's fine.
Fine. So I'll see you soon. Love you. Bye.
What in God's name is he gonna spring on us now?
Nora, come on. Surprises are supposed to be fun.
Not in this family. I just want him back.
Yeah, well, we all want him back.
I'll see you tonight, honey, okay?
Okay. Oh, Nora.
Yeah? You missed a spot.
Ha.
***
They're gonna end up on the floor.
Oh, my God. What are you doing here?
Your flight wasn't till 12:00. Oh, my God.
I was just about to leave
to pick you up from the airport. I took a cab.
Mm. Mm. I missed you so much.
Here. Let me take this.
Okay, listen. What?
You and I, we can never be apart that long again.
If you go to Shanghai, I'm coming with you.
I could get used to dim sum. I will never leave you again.
You know, Tommy's coming back today.
I've been thinking about asking
him to walk me down the aisle. That would be perfect.
Uh... Sarah, please don't take it.
It's probably mom about Tommy. I'll be really fast.
Why you guys always answer the phone? I'll be two seconds.
I don't get it. Oh. Hi, mom. Speak fast. Luc just got in.
Well, tell him I said hi, and I will see him tonight. Okay?
Listen, Sarah, Tommy called. He just landed.
He has a great big surprise for all of us.
What is it? Maybe he's moving home. Wouldn't that be great?
Do you think that's what it is?
I'd have no idea, mom. You talk to Tommy more than any of us.
Hello.
Hey, Justin. Hey, how was your trip?
Do me a favor. Get your mom off the phone now.
I would love to spend some time with Sarah.
Got it. Get it. Good. Done. Dialing.
Thank you. I just don't know why he would tell me
there's a great big surprise and not tell me what it is.
So, uh...
Oh, wait. Hold on. Someone's calling.
It's Justin. Maybe he knows something.
I'll... I'll talk to you later. Okay. Bye, mom.
You're a genius.
Oh, what did I do without you around?
Look, mom, Tommy could be
bringing the space needle back from Seattle.
I'm just really glad we're finally gonna get to see him.
Hey, uh, look, Annie's here.
I gotta go. Is she still joining us tonight?
Uh, yes, that's the plan.
Do you want me to introduce her as your girlfriend?
Yes, mom. She is my girlfriend.
Oh, sweetheart.
That's the first time I've heard you say that.
Yep, you're breaking up. Driving through...
All right. Okay. Good-bye. Good-bye.
Love you, mom. Good-bye.
Hi. Hi. So I'm your girlfriend now?
Yes. I hope that doesn't come as a surprise to you.
No, it doesn't. But you being here is a surprise.
I thought you had the day off.
Oh, no. I, uh, I picked up a shift.
Oh. But don't forget, this afternoon, we gotta hit
that softball diamond. Little brave hearts cap on.
You know I like it when you get all sporty on me. Ooh, do you?
Morning.
I was hoping I would run into you guys today. Oh, uh, hey.
Hey. So do you see him as much as I do?
'Cause you're... you're kind of around,
like, a lot. Yeah, well, a resident
very rarely leaves the hospital, Justin.
Although this afternoon is an exception.
Why is that?
Oh, well, j.D. Tore his rotator cuff.
J.D.'S hurt? Mm-hmm.
Great. Who the hell's gonna pitch for us?
Well... I am.
But don't worry. You know, uh, the game before I left,
I pitched a shutout. Tell him. Tell him.
He pitched a shutout.
Wow. You could try getting a little bit more excited than that.
No, trust me, okay? I was amazing.
Okay, how about this? He pitched a shutout
and was amazing.
Yeah. It's like having a cheerleader.
Have you seen her in a baseball jersey yet?
I mean, she looks way better in it than we do.
That's awesome, right? I'll, uh,
see you on the field. Yeah. Will do. Can't wait.
See ya.
You know what? Just ignore him.
It's not worth it. Annie, I'm trying to. He's everywhere.
He's at the E.R. He's at the taco truck.
He... he's now taking over for J.D. on the softball diamond.
Come on. Like, he's clearly still interested in you.
But I'm not interested in him. Okay? I broke up with him.
Fine. I'll tell you what, I'll ignore him if you do, too. Great.
Deal?
Yeah.
My grandma could pitch a shutout, by the way.
Just so... Let it go. Just let it go.
Ta-da!
Is the wall color okay?
We weren't sure if yellow was gonna be too bright.
Yeah, and we didn't want to do pink,
'cause we thought it might be too girlie.
Not that there's anything wrong
with being pink or girlie. No, of course not.
You know, we... green,
purple... we can do any color of the rainbow. Yellow's cool.
I'm just here for the weekend anyway.
Yes, you are, but eventually, you'll be living here, so...
And we want you to be comfortable.
Yeah, you know what? Live with it for this visit.
If you think yellow isn't you, we can totally repaint it
by the time you... Totally.
I think I'm just gonna draw if that's cool.
Yeah, of course. Absolutely.
Um, before you do that,
there's something we would like to give you.
And you can change this, too, if you don't like it. Is it yellow?
I'm not sure. I... Uh, is it? Uh...
I'm kidding. You guys don't need to buy me anything, you know?
Ooh. S... Ugh. It's my mom.
Sorry. Go ahead.
Sorry.
It's his mom. She can wait. Believe me. Open your present.
Yeah. I like the wrapping.
Good.
The box is ringing. I think I know what it is.
Yeah. Sorry.
Let me just, um... see.
Oh, yeah. Can you hold that?
Mom, what are you doing? Well, I'm sorry. I couldn't resist.
I just wanted to find out... Does she like my gift?
No, you couldn't resist talking to her.
What if she'd picked up? You're gonna meet her, okay?
Can you just calm down? Can I draw now?
Yeah. You know what? I'm gonna go find out
if we have everything we need for dinner.
Could you, uh, grab her some paper?
I have a notebook. Okay.
Kevin. Kevin, listen, give her some space. Don't push.
Hi, pot. This is kettle. You're black.
All right. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
But tell me, does she like it? I don't know.
Why don't we let her try it before we run out of minutes?
Well, I got her an unlimited plan. Of course you did.
Look, I know you guys can't come tonight.
I'm meeting Tommy for coffee.
Well, good, good.
Did he happen to tell you anything about a big surprise? No.
Bye, mom. Oh, all right. Good-bye.
I am so sorry my mom ruined your surprise.
But she just wanted you to be able to reach us anytime.
But pretty cool, huh? You can text me anytime you want.
I'm a huge texter. I might even tweet you. Who's Tommy?
Uh, he's my brother,
and I'm just gonna grab a quick coffee with him.
And while he does that,
I thought you and I could go shopping. We stocked up,
but I'm sure we've missed a couple of things.
So why don't you just write down some stuff
you think you might need on that list?
If you want to go hang out with Tommy...
N-no. Are you kidding me? I want to hang with you.
Uh, if it's okay with you, I'm gonna draw.
Okay.
Mom!
Tommy?
Hey.
Tommy. Oh, Tommy. Oh, honey.
Oh, I'm so glad to see you. Mom. Mwah.
Welcome home.
Mama Nora.
Oh!
I'm so excited to meet you.
Mwah. Mwah.
Tommy's told me everything about you.
Well, that's funny,
'cause he's told me absolutely nothing about you.
Surprise.
Ss05e13
if there's one place not to have your iPod playing,
it's the pike place fish market. That's right.
That's where they throw the fish for the tourists.
Right. So I was listening to Katy Perry.
Right, and outta nowhere,
this mackerel started
heading straight for her head. Hello. Tommy?
Uh, Sarah. We're in here, honey. Where are you, little brother?
Come here and give me a hug.
Sarah, hi. It... it... it's so nice to meet you.
Uh, Sarah, this is Rose.
This is Tommy's surprise.
Wait. Come on, mom. Can you let her finish the story?
Okay, I'll do the quick version first. Okay. Do the... All right.
So Tommy leaps in front of the fish, and he catches it
right before it hits me smack in the middle of the face.
I mean, could you imagine?
Death by mackerel.
Sarah, let me give you a real hello.
Oh, hello.
Mwah. Mwah. Ooh. Ooh.
Tommy just thinks the world of you.
Good. Maybe I can get a hug out of him.
Of course you can. Hey.
Hi, honey.
It's so good to see you. It's been too long.
Listen, uh, Luc's sorry he couldn't get over this morning.
He just got off a 15-hour flight.
But he's coming for dinner tonight?
Oh, sure. He's just sleeping off his jet lag.
Listen, we're really hoping to spend a bit of time with you
before you go back, okay? Me, too.
I-I can't wait to meet him.
Yeah, great. Uh, the four of us will do something.
Sarah, how about some coffee?
Come on in. Everybody sit down.
Uh, you know, Rose, we... we just haven't heard
a-a peep out of Tommy a-about all of this.
I-I wish I would've met you sooner.
You sound like all of our friends back in Seattle.
They keep asking, "when are you gonna come up for air?"
It's my fault. I couldn't get enough of him.
Stop it.
It's the honeymoon phase, you know?
I-I had to prepare her to meet the family.
How long have you guys been, uh, together?
Um, six months... six months...
And three days. And... Yeah.
Oh. So it takes six months and three days
to prepare someone to meet the family?
Oh, no, no. Oh, your family is amazing.
In fact, when, uh, I wanted to bring you a gift, Nora,
Tommy said that you had every cake cutter
and serving tray known to man.
So instead, I thought I would make you a family tree.
I made one for my best friend. She loved it.
So I hope you don't mind, but I started one for you.
It... it's not ready yet. Your family is fascinating.
Let's talk about your great-Uncle Mickey.
I-I didn't even know I had a great-Uncle Mickey.
Oh, yeah. He saved 33 children from cholera.
I mean, that's amazing, huh?
Oh, my God. I must sound like a stalker.
The truth is, I... I'm just obsessed with history.
In fact, I did one of those civil war reenactments once.
A family tree is much simpler. Yeah, I bet.
I think I'm a little nervous.
No. You're doing great. Okay? Okay.
Now you see why she's the light of my life?
You said that the first day we moved in together. That's right.
You live together?
Mom, yeah.
No, no. No, no. It's... it's... it's great.
Just, you know, a surprise. Yeah.
A wonderful surprise, but a big ol' surprise.
Yeah.
You ready to go?
What's this? Just the list of stuff that I want.
Oh, you drew it.
Okay, so this is a hat, uh, pajamas,
an electric toothbrush, and... that's a gecko.
I can see that. You don't really need to get me one.
I just think they're really cool.
Olivia, you are very talented.
Thanks. Come on. Let's go.
Okay.
Here, look. That's Rose.
All right. Let me see.
Oh, wow. She's beautiful.
I thought blondes are more your type.
No. Tommy's always been an equal-opportunity Lothario.
Coming from the man who dated three guys at once?
Technically, I didn't date any of them.
Besides, I'm married now,
starting a family as we speak.
Oh, let me see. Let me see.
Is this... Olivia's adorable.
Right?
Let me see. Oh, man. She's beautiful.
Right? All right, while we're doing it, take a look at Annie.
Give me mine back. I need to text Olivia.
Wow. That's Annie. So is she, uh, is she the real deal?
Yeah, we'll find out after the softball game.
Oh, yeah. So is the ex a pitcher or a catcher?
Seriously, Kevin? It's a legitimate sports question.
It's true. That is. Well, I don't know,
but I know he's definitely still into her.
Yeah, but the question is, is Annie still into Dr. Rick?
Well, she says she's not. That's a hot name, by the way.
Thanks, Kev. All right? He's a cardiology resident also.
So? You're a 3-time war vet, all right?
He's just trying to rattle you. Go to the game,
you hit a couple of home runs, and then rush back to mom's,
all right? I'm gonna need your help. Why? What's going on?
Mom had that look earlier, like when you were dating Fawn.
Ooh. Ooh. That's not good.
No, and Sarah kept narrowing her eyes
every time we were talking. Yeah. She thinks she's weird.
What? What did she... did she call you? No, I got a text.
What did she say? "She's weird."
Sarah's always the last one to be won over. You know that.
Which is why I need you guys to back me up.
She's not weird. She's great. She's not what you might expect.
But she's funny and smart and kind,
and, yeah, she's not afraid of saying anything.
Okay. Then she'll fit in fine.
Yeah. You're getting a text from her.
"1-4-3." What does that mean?
What? Uh, all right, fine. It's this thing we do.
It means "I love you."
You know, the "I" is a 1-letter word,
and love's a 4-letter...
Nerd alert.
Anyway, she's amazing. I gotta get to Sarah's.
Why isn't Olivia texting me back?
Because she's still shopping with Scotty.
Yeah, I know, but I thought she'd be like Paige...
thumbs permanently cramped at right angles.
You ready for your big game?
Dr. Rick doesn't know what's coming. All right.
All right. 1-4-3, bro.
Yeah. See you, guys. Later. Later.
Yeah, loosen it up!
I mean, I gotta say,
this ponytail look is really working for me.
Really? Yeah.
Should I wear it to your mom's dinner?
No. I think you should wear it after. Hello.
Sorry I'm late. I'm here. We had a red line. Rick!
Touch and go. I wasn't gonna make it.
But I saved his life quick and I'm here.
Yo, Justin. Glad you could make it. Yeah, I was on time.
I guess we save lives faster than you do, huh?
He... he is funny.
Annie, I have a present for you.
Oh, my God. The lucky penny.
Yeah. What, you think I'd lose it?
We found this on the mound right before we won
the league playoffs. Yeah.
Great having you back.
Oh, thanks, Kell. Now control yourself, Justin.
I'm taking my shirt off. Oh, I'll try, she-hulk.
Oh, my God. What a show-off.
All right. Let's go. Play ball!
Nice medium jersey, dude.
Hi. Hi.
You need some help? No, no, no, no.
I could do a leg of lamb in my sleep.
But you could chop the garlic for me if you like.
I'd be honored.
Okay. Is your room all right?
You need any more towels or anything?
Nora, I've seen department stores with less of a selection.
And that shower... Oh.
I'm telling you, I could sell this place in a second.
Oh. I'm a broker.
Oh. Oh. Of course, if I lived here,
I wouldn't want to part with this place either.
No. This has been our home for a very long time.
Did you know that your maternal grandmother
had an aunt who was killed by circus dogs?
No, I didn't know that.
But now I do, unfortunately.
I am way into the family tree.
What you can find on the Internet
would make your head spin.
Nora, I want you to know
that Tommy and I are very happy together.
Well, good.
Good, Rose. I'm glad. I'm... I'm glad.
Do you feel like you lost him? Because you shouldn't.
You know, I think he actually feels like
he let all of you down, like he's lost you.
Really?
You know, I think maybe you want to peel that garlic first,
don't you think?
Just, you know... Oh.
Get it all opened up before... Oh.
You know what?
Let's just not even chop the garlic.
Let's press it and then rub it all over the lamb.
How about that?
If you would just get me the garlic press
out of the top drawer.
It's the silver dooey-wad thing.
Nora. Is this you?
Oh, yes. Well, that was taken a very long time ago.
Oh, and who's that? Uh, that's my brother Saul.
Who's that other guy? Uh, n-no one.
He... it's just a friend. Just... just a friend.
You know what? Why don't you forget about the garlic?
I'll do the garlic. You slice the green beans.
Okay.
Wow. This place is cool.
How many of these stations do you own?
Five. And it's all about the ad buy.
Probably the last thing you ever thought
I'd be doing, right? Actually, no.
Do you remember in high school, you were the homeroom deejay?
I mean, you used to sell ads to businesses. Oh, my God. Yeah.
Remember? This is Sarah Walker with...
Your morning spin God. So lame.
No, it wasn't. You were great. You were the only reason
people showed up early before class.
Oh, God.
You know, it...
You've really done something great for yourself.
Thanks.
Well, this is nice, Tommy, having you here.
Actually, there's something I've been wanting...
To ask... what?
Nothing. I mean, you go first.
Okay.
All right, listen,
so it's a real estate investment project.
Real estate?
Yeah, Rose is a broker,
and, you know, we want to do something big.
We need seed money.
Oh, so you found a bank that wants to give you capital?
No. We're not having any luck with banks.
That's why I'm asking you.
Oh.
Look, we're gonna start by flipping small houses...
Is this your idea or Rose's?
Both.
Well, you know, Tommy, if I'd have known this was gonna be
a business pitch, I would've worn different shoes.
Why are you acting like this? Tommy,
I thought you were coming down here to reconnect.
I've barely talked to you in... in two months.
Yeah, well, it's not like you've been calling me. I gave up
because you would take like five days to call me back.
Are we really having this argument?
Yeah.
Okay, let me answer your request.
Flipping houses is something you do
when you catch a bubble, not after it's burst.
It's also a good time to buy.
Anyway, this company's assets aren't liquid,
so I couldn't invest even if I wanted to.
No, I understand. Look, you know what?
Why don't you put together a proposal? I'll... Sarah, it's okay.
So, uh...
Anyway... what did you think of Rose?
Well, um...
"Well, um"? She's great.
Oh. I-I saw your little text to Kevin.
No, l... I was kidding.
Yeah. Thanks for the coffee. I'll see you at dinner.
Fine.
All right. Come on. Big hit.
Batter up. Let's go, Garrett!
Call it!
Got it! Got it! Got it!
What are you doing, man? I had it.
Yeah, it didn't look like you did.
Yeah? Well, how about you play your position,
I'll play mine, all right?
All right, buddy. Why don't you calm down?
We're all on the same team. Is everything okay?
Yeah, it's fine. Don't worry about it. You'll get the next one.
Come on, slugger. You're up first.
Okay, Swiss chard, Swiss chard, Swiss chard.
Hi.
Okay.
Okay. I have one thing left on my list. How about you?
I'm done.
You're done? Seriously? But I always win supermarket sweep.
But you didn't get anything from the list.
That's the whole point of the game.
I got the stuff I like. I can see that.
I don't understand why we're shopping anyway.
What's the point of living above a restaurant
if you can't even eat there?
Well, because the restaurant is our business.
We're going to eat where we live.
Do you still have the list?
Okay.
All right, let's make a deal.
We'll get the rest of the things we need from this list,
and you can keep a couple of the things you want
in your basket. Do we have to play that game again?
Was it lame? Kinda.
Sorry. I'm so old.
Okay, vodka.
Let's go. Right down the middle.
Yeah, Justin! Let's go! Come home, Justin! Come on!
You're out!
What? What are you talking about?
I was safe by a mile. You're out.
Oh, man. Are you... Tell me you saw that.
It was close. What?
The ball got there first, Justin. Are you serious?
Justin, I didn't see it. Yeah, don't take it so seriously, buddy.
It's just a game. Don't call me buddy, douche, all right?
What'd you call me? You heard me. Douche, as in Dr. douche.
Whoa, whoa, Justin. Stop. Listen,
I was safe, and this asshat over here...
You know what? Screw you. Oh, you know what?
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Guys, guys, guys.
Hey! Stop it! Get up! Come on, you guys! Split up!
You know, I think I'm gonna go change my earrings, okay?
Uh-huh. First it's the dress, now it's the earrings.
You're stalling. Come on.
I just feel like I-I got off
on the wrong foot with your family.
I mean, you should've seen your mother's face
when I pulled out that photograph.
Look, forget the photo, okay? I love you.
And they know that. And that's all that matters, okay?
Okay.
Thank you. Whoa. Hey, bro.
Hey. Hey.
How are you? And, uh, you must be Rose.
Wow. The... the photos on Tommy's phone do you no justice.
Thank you. You're Justin, right?
Yes, I'm Justin. And this is, uh, this is Annie. Hey. Hi.
Hi. This is Tommy.
Hey. Nice to meet you both. Hey.
Good to meet you. So, uh, how was the game?
Did you win? Uh, well, we would've if the umpire wasn't blind.
It's kind of a sore subject. Justin was called out at home.
So... I was safe, uh, but she won't admit that I was sa...
I didn't see the play. What was I supposed to do?
Annie, you want to, um, go get a drink? Let's do that. Yes.
So, uh,
I guess it didn't go so good with Dr. Rick, huh?
Oh, yeah. You know what? Don't even ask.
But Rose... she's great.
Yeah.
The family's gonna love her.
She's probably pissed
you made her play that stupid sweep game.
Does everybody hate that game?
Well, your version doesn't actually have cash prizes
at the register. Well, there could've been.
I mean, she completely ignored my list.
We can't let her eat like that. Okay, slow down, Julia child.
We all ate candy as a kid. We'll talk to her.
Hi. We... Oh, you have your phone. I was afraid you lost it.
Why? Oh, no biggie.
Uh, I-I sent you a couple of texts,
and you didn't text me back.
I was with Scotty. Why would I text you?
Sit down with me for a sec, would you?
We, uh, we want to talk to you about expectations.
So you want me to do chores or something?
No, I think what Kevin is trying to say is,
when we try to reach you, it would be great if you,
you know, wrote us back. Yeah. Or like with the groceries.
Because Scotty's such a good chef,
he will make you think green beans are French fries.
I swear. Okay.
We have a responsibility to make sure you're healthy.
It's really important to us. Yeah.
I've never even heard of most of the stuff that's on your list.
Can I go to my room?
We're... we're not angry with you.
We just wanted to have a little talk.
That's all. I really want to go to my room.
Would anyone care for some more wine? Oh, I would.
So, everybody, uh, Sarah and I have an announcement to make.
Sarah. You tell 'em.
Is everything okay? Yeah. No, go ahead. Tell 'em.
All right. Um, we've set a date for the wedding.
Oh, that's wonderful. Bravo.
Okay, to Luc and Sarah
and the culmination of your love...
And to Tommy and Rose
and the beginning of yours.
Well, they've been shacked up for months,
so it's hardly the beginning. Oh,
come on, Sarah. You've been shacked up with Luc
since the first time you saw him do squats.
Stop it. So when are you getting married, Luc?
May 15th. Yeah. May 15th. The 15th. Yeah.
How wonderful. Tommy, I'm so glad you're home
to be a part of this. Thanks, mom.
So you went to see Sarah's empire today, right? Yep.
Yeah. Tommy wanted to pitch me this house flipping idea.
I like it. Buy low, sell high.
Thanks, bro. Well, while we're tossing around aphorisms,
how about being left holding the bag?
Lows could stay low a really long time.
You just have to look at Japan.
Well, Sarah, we've actually thought it through.
And the numbers make sense.
In fact, it's a very transitional neighborhood
full of young families.
No, I'm sure they're lovely. The... the question is,
can they afford a house with unemployment so high?
I don't know. My cousin, actually,
she just bought a house, flipped it, and made a ton of money.
Uh, Annie, I don't think you should take sides.
Oh, you're a real estate fan, too?
Um, no, no. I'm just a... just a softball fan.
Yeah, depends on who's playing.
Annie, if you want to have any peace,
you gotta tell this guy he was safe. I was safe,
and I can't believe with all the camera phones there,
no one recorded it. Okay.
Well, maybe we should check YouTube later.
What, you think this is funny?
I do. I think it's funny, Justin.
Has... has he always been this competitive? Yes.
Yeah. Yes.
So Tommy's here. Let's...
Come on. Let's talk about Tommy. Boring.
Yes, um, Tommy, I-I didn't know
you were thinking about changing jobs.
What about the radio station?
What do you think? It's very impressive.
Sarah.
Hmm? What?
Well, with Tommy's expertise,
I'm sure you can find something for him to do.
Mom, this is not the time or the place.
Besides, Tommy has no interest in...
Yeah, why would I have any interest in working with you?
You've been completely condescending
this entire time. Well, you just showed up
out of the blue and asked me for money.
What do you expect? What is wrong with you?
I mean, do you remember before Ojai closed?
We... we were gonna work together, Sarah.
How is asking me to invest in a real estate deal
remotely like us working together
to save our family business, Tommy? How? I don't know...
All right, stop it, both of you. Tommy just got home,
and you're fighting about business.
That's enough. Forget about the real estate.
The two of you loved working together.
Is that true, Tommy? Is that what you want,
to come back here and work with me?
Or did you just come back to raid the piggybank
so you and Rose could run back to Seattle?
'Cause honestly, I'd really like to know. Honestly?
Yeah. Luc, uh, I hate to upstage your announcement,
but she wants to know the real reason we came down here.
Mm-hmm.
Uh...
We're engaged.
And, um, I wanted my fiancée to meet my family.
That's the big surprise.
Grazie.
Well... Tommy, that's wonderful.
W-w-we're all so happy for you.
Aren't we happy for him?
Mom, just stop it, all right? You don't have to do this.
Yes, I do. Tommy, please, let us reconnect.
It's not easy. You've been so far away.
It's supposed to be easy!
That's what family is. It's okay, Tommy.
No, it's not okay, honey.
Last year wasn't just hard for you guys, all right?
It was hard for me, too. I felt lost. Probably even more...
And when I met Rose...
She made me believe in myself again.
Let's go, honey.
Excuse me.
You could lay them out flat. Then they won't wrinkle.
Wow. Looks like that summer in retail
finally paid off.
You think they're still hiring?
All right, listen, neither of us
wants to be the first to blink,
so just this once, I will, okay?
You hurt me, Tommy. You disappeared.
And now I know why. You met Rose.
She was so excited about meeting you guys.
Well, maybe you should've told us about her
before you just sprung her on us like that.
Tommy, when I heard you were coming down,
I was so excited. I couldn't wait to show you the company
and for you to get to know Luc better.
When you asked me for money, I just got blindsided.
Sarah, you don't understand.
I was trying to find a way to get back into this family.
Okay. Then why don't you come and work with me?
I'm serious.
Look, everything looks great with the company.
But the truth is, I am lonely.
I don't even have holly to fight with anymore.
Are you serious?
I mean, come on, what could be more fun
than fighting with you every day?
I'll think about it.
Would you think about something else, too?
Yeah, sure.
I'd really like you to walk me down the aisle.
I was gonna ask you this morning,
but I guess I got thrown by...
Rose?
Yeah.
Sarah, she's a big part of my life now.
I know that. And I am really glad for you.
And I'll try harder with Rose. I promise.
I will try much harder.
I don't want you to try.
I just want you to love me...
Unconditionally.
There.
I blinked.
And, yes.
I would love to walk you down the aisle.
Thanks.
Hey.
Maybe we should head out.
Justin, I think you're taking this way too far.
Yeah? See, I don't think I am.
It's actually pretty simple, Annie.
You didn't take my side. And I get it. I get it.
You and Rick have this long history,
and you dated for a long time, and maybe you saw yourself
ending up with him... Wait. Do you see what you're doing here?
Justin, you're picking a fight with me just to push me away.
This is about you. Justin, I like you.
And I like you. I really do. That...
Then what is the problem here?
Annie, I don't think you're over him.
I don't.
And I think you want to believe that you are,
but you're not.
So admit it.
You really liked Scotty's homemade Mac and cheese.
Um, Olivia, there's something
that, uh, Kevin and I want you to hear.
We have thought long and hard about how to have a family.
And we truly believe that this is the one
we're supposed to have, but it's a big responsibility.
Which is why sometimes you may get really mad at us
when we need you to do things.
And we thought maybe you would understand things better
if you had something to take care of on your own.
So... is that a gecko?
Mm-hmm. Is it for me?
Yep. Thank you.
Now you'll have to feed it. It eats live crickets.
Wow. I wish we knew that before we got it.
Yeah, and you'll have to make sure it gets plenty of light.
I will. I promise. And I'll eat whatever you guys want.
Oh, no, no, this isn't a bribe.
No, because now we're a family... you, me, Scotty, and...
Zemulon. That's his name.
Perfect...
Because I actually have something for his terrarium. Ahh.
What's that for?
Well, what does it say?
Can I go play with Zemulon now?
Of course you can. I mean, nametags for geckos?
That's stupid. I think I just picked that up
at a legal conference. Can I show him our room?
Sure.
The shopping list. The text.
She... she can't read.
Oh, no, no.
No, no, no, no. You don't want to eat those.
They... they've been in there since the bush administration.
Really? The first one.
Oh. I am so hungry.
Well, of course you are. You've eaten nothing but salad.
And...
Look...
Our behavior tonight was inexcusable.
You were trying to broker a peace. I get it.
No, I was trying to get you guys to move back here.
It was completely selfish on my part.
Well, I came across kind of strong, too.
I... wanted to skip that whole
awkward, getting-to-know-you part
and just be at that dining room table
I've heard so much about.
Rose, what you saw tonight, that's the real walkers.
I mean, it's... it's not a civil war reenactment,
but it's close.
How does reheated lamb sound to you?
Much better than olives from the '90s.
Yeah, I bet.
You know, I-I didn't mean to make such a big deal
about that picture.
No, no, no. You... No, you didn't.
I just felt like...
that there was a story there, you know?
I mean, did you date that guy?
It... it... it was nothing, honestly.
It w... it was nothing. He just, um, I...
I knew... I knew him in high school.
That's... that's all.
Oh, a high-school sweetheart.
What's his name?
Brody.
His name was Brody.
Hmm.
Uh...
Yeah.
Hey. When do we eat?
I am starving.
Don't worry, mom. We're fine.
That's right.
In fact, Sarah says
there might be an opening for me at Maris media.
You mean the two of you are gonna work together again?
Only if it's okay with you, Rose.
Uh, oh.
So what do you think, we move down here?
Um... you can't just put her on the spot like that, Tommy.
Rose?
Let's do it.
Let's move to Pasadena.
Oh, my God. This is fantastic. Oh! I can't believe it!
Come here, mom.
This calls for a celebration.
Hey. Where is she?
She's getting ready.
I think she wants to impress us.
Impress us? My God. I'm a nervous wreck.
I could hardly sleep last night.
Midnight is a young man's game.
You know, he's in the phone book.
Who?
Brody. Brody's in the phone book.
I remembered, Brody is his last name.
His name is Nick Brody.
Saul, would you just please stop it? You're obsessed.
Nora, I think that you should call him.
Yeah, yeah, you were very close to him.
Much closer than any of us ever knew. Stop it. Honestly.
I'd just like to concentrate on... on today.
I'm about to meet my new little granddaughter
for the very first time, and I want to concentrate on that. Okay.
Hi. She's almost ready.
Don't be mad at me if I cry.
Please tell me
there aren't any leftovers in there.
No, they're not leftovers.
I-I brought a-a bunch of your favorite books
from when you were a kid.
That's great. Thank you. So did you talk to the social worker?
Yeah, I did. A lot of kids fall through the cracks.
So we've made an appointment to get her tested,
and now we're just looking for tutors. Great.
Kevin... you sound just like a dad.
Oh, stop it. You're gonna make me cry.
Olivia,
this is Kevin's mom, Nora.
Hi, Olivia.
And this is Uncle Saul.
Hi, sweetheart. I'm so happy to meet you.
Thank you for my phone, Nora.
Oh, absolutely. I mean, if you're gonna be
in this family, you gotta have a phone.
And you have to learn that
whole 3-way calling thing. I know how to do it.
Ooh. Do you want to meet my gecko?
Y-your gecko?
Oh, wow. Look at that. Wow. Whoo-hoo-hoo.
Oh... my goodness. And what's his name?
Zemulon.
Zemulon?
Wow.
Look at that tail. Amazing.
Hey.
Hi. How's your day going?
Um, good, good.
Definitely better than how my night went.
Hey, Justin,
I just need to talk to you about something. Yeah, sure.
I just want you to know that I never meant to lead you on.
You know, and I-I'm not saying
that I'm gonna get back together with Rick. I just...
Annie, stop. I get it. It's okay.
I really, really like you, Justin.
And I don't know, maybe this is too much to ask,
but I just hope that we can still be friends.
Yeah.
Yeah, you know, eventually.
Of course. Right. So, um...
So I'll, uh...
I'll see you around, Annie.
Justin, um,
just one more thing.
I think you might have been safe.
I appreciate that.
Bye, Annie.
What, you're not still doing that family tree thing,
are you?
You wouldn't believe the stuff you can download online...
birth certificates... mwah... mwah.
Marriage certificates, immigration papers.
Seriously. What did we do before the Internet?
Ah, hold on.
Hello. Uh, hey. Listen, I know I said that we'd meet up
at the office this morning, but, um... whoa, whoa.
You're not having second thoughts,
are you? About working together? No. No, not at all.
No, no, it's just that, um,
have you ever had one of those mornings
where you feel like you just shouldn't get out of bed?
Yeah, all the time.
Yes, well, I am
definitely having one of those mornings.
Sarah, it's fine. Say hi to Luc.
Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. What I was thinking is,
why don't you come over for lunch,
you and Rose? Yeah, yeah. That's great.
Okay, give me a few hours, okay?
Okay. Bye.
Hey. Do you think it would be weird
if we got married the same month your mother did?
Ooh. I don't think we want to start out
with that kind of karma. Mm.
Too bad. I always wanted a June wedding.
You still can. My parents got married in January.
Uh... Tommy, I'm looking at the marriage certificate.
It says June.
Oh.
No, no, th-this can't be right.
I mean, I can't tell you how many times
we went to Chasen's for their anniversary party.
Did she ever tell you about a guy named Brody?
N-no. Why?
Uh...
I'm not really sure.
Maybe you should ask her.
Where I come from, there's only one reason
people lie about their wedding date.
What, you think she was pregnant? Maybe.
