[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[Man]:
Mandy, will you marry me?

[Woman chuckles]

No, no.

When I met you...
No. That's not right.

From the moment I... saw...

Jason!

Relax.

How can I relax, Ellie?
What if she says, no?

She's not going
to say no!

How do you know
that, Ellie?

Because she told me.

When?

The night
that she met you.

All right.

[Knocking]

That's her. Go.

Uh...

Okay.

Thank you, Ellie.

Of course! Go!

Hey...

What is going on, Ellie?

You said we were going
to my birthday dinner,

so I put a dress
and lipstick and everything,

and then you drag me over here?

Wait!

What is the emergency?

Uh... it's hard to explain.

You just...
You have to see for yourself.

Ellie, what are
you talking about?

Hi.

Hi.

Mandy...

From the moment
that we met...

I knew.

I knew that you were the one
for me...

And that I want to spend
every day...

The rest of my life
with you.

Will you marry me?

Yes!

Yes! Yes!

Okay,
everybody can come out now!

[Cheering]

You guys!

Daddy, what...

I'm so happy for you!

Congratulations,
sweetheart.

Thank you so much.

Hey!

I'm so happy for you.

Of course,
you did this for us,

and of course,
it's incredible.

I had no idea where to begin.
I mean...

Forget about
interior design, Ellie.

Your exterior design
is spectacular.

Well, only the best
for my sister,

and now,
my brother.

Isn't it beautiful?

It's perfect.

I've got a wedding to plan.

I don't know
how to plan anything.

I don't even know
where to start.

Ellie,
you have to help me!

Of course,
i will help you.

We have
a wedding to plan.

Let me see that ring!

Oh, my gosh!

You really went all out
for her.

Oh, she was
so excited.

You got it on video,
right? Please...

Oh...

I perform my duties, yes.

Thank you.

Tonight's a night
she'll remember forever.

It's great.

I'm just glad you don't need
a big production like this.

What we have
is perfect.

[Group laughing]

[Mandy]: Right?

Oh, looks stunning!

I know!

Oh, my goodness!

[Woman]: It's wonderful.

How's my bow?

It's good.
Really good, dad.

You're a terrible liar,
Ellie...

Which means I raised you right.

Yay for me!

You know, your sister really
should be helping us

wrap the gifts
for the bridal party.

It is her wedding.

She had
a meeting today,

so I don't mind.

It's what
a big sister does.

It's also what a mother does.

You've been always
that kind of figure to her.

I got two more years with mom
than Mandy did.

She would've wanted me
looking out for her.

What she wanted
was for you two to be happy.

And we are!

Look at us.

I'm on the fast track
to run k. Lane interior design

someday.

Mandy's getting married.

I'm going strong
with Alec.

You know, Ellie, you get
one great love in your life.

Your mother was mine.

Jason is Mandy's.

Is Alec yours?

I guess time will tell.

Hand me the tape.

Ugh... okay.

Three and a half miles.

That's all I have time
for today, babe.

Good.

Uh, so, yeah,

I've got an meeting
tomorrow morning,

and I know you have
to finish the condo remodel

before you leave,

so we could do dinner
Thursday night? Friday?

Thursday night.

We leave
Friday morning.

Do you need a ride
to the airport?

I can pick you up
on my way to work.

Thank you!

My dad actually
got us a car service.

Wow!

Really going all out
for this wedding.

My dad did the same thing
when my sister got married.

If you ask me,

that is
an insane amount of money

to spend on one day.

Well, you hire a really
good photographer.

That way,
you don't forget.

You know, I could renovate

an entire
3,000-square-foot house

for the price
of Mandy's wedding.

Yes, but you're really
good at what you do.

You're good at what you do.

Planning, organizing...

I bet you right now,
you are mentally packing.

Yeah?

I am!

I'm so predictable.

I was actually
trying to decide

if five bathing
suits was enough,

or if I was supposed

to go home, shower off,
and head to the mall.

You're going for one week.

Yeah, but it's Mexico.

In acapulco, bathing suits
are business casual.

I really wish
you were coming,

then we wouldn't have
to try and figure out

when we could see
each other.

I know.

We're both so busy.

I'm bidding
on two new projects,

so I couldn't get away
even if I wanted to.

Plus, you're going
to be so preoccupied

taking care of Mandy.

Hey, you can't say bad
things about my sister.

Only I can say bad
things about my sister.

She's just lucky

that you're such
an exceptional person.

That's all I'm saying.

Oh... gosh,
we're so sweaty.

I can't be bothered
with that right now.

I have to send you off
desperately loving me...

Especially since
he's going to be there

and I'm not.

Hey.

You have nothing to worry about.

He is my past.
You are my present.

That's what I like to hear,

but hey, just for fun,

can you tell me
that he was, like, super awful?

[Laughs]

He was the worst, wasn't he?

-He was bad.
-Yeah.

-Awful.
-Okay, good.

Big step up, right?

[Ellie]: Alrighty.

So...

Here is your checklist

for everything that you need
to bring to Mexico.

Right here, I have a list
of all expenses paid...

[Phone vibrates]

And all the balances
still owed,

converted
into American dollars.

You have to make sure

that you have enough checks
for all of your vendors.

You're listening, right?

Yes, yes,
Ellie, I'm listening.

Okay, it's just...
We leave in two days.

I want to make sure
you have everything.

Oh, you have to call Tara,

the event coordinator
at the resort,

'cause she needs a confirmation
on food, flowers, and music.

I sent you a list of questions.

I forwarded that to you.
You got it, right?

Yeah, yeah.
I got it.

Okay.

You know,
sometimes, I wonder

if this is my dream wedding,
or yours.

This is exactly
what you wanted,

a simple "thank you"
would suffice.

Thank you, Ellie,
for planning my wedding,

and for being
freakishly organized.

You're welcome.

Ooh. You know...

Maybe you should reconsider
planning your own wedding.

You've definitely
got a knack for it.

I'm not saying
people shouldn't get married.

It's just...

Alec and i
don't need a piece of paper

to prove that we're committed.

It's not really his thing,
so we're taking things slowly,

and I'm going to be
so exhausted with this wedding.

You used to love
this wedding stuff.

Remember when we were kids,

we would always
play "bride"

with mom's old
dress-up clothes?

You would always
marry Teddy ruxpin.

Oh, I remember,

and if Teddy ruxpin
asked me to marry him today,

I might say yes.

[Laughing]

I seem to recall at one point

it was looking
like you might marry...

Mandy.

Don't.

I just want
to make sure

everything is okay,
Ellie.

Seeing Greg again?

You haven't even spoken
since you broke up.

I mean, maid of honor
and best man...

It's not like you can
avoid him the whole week.

I know,

but I will certainly try
my hardest.

You have to pick one.

Okay. Um...

[Grandma]:
Here's my bag.

[Dad]:
Nothing?

No, she hasn't answered.
Again.

You know your sister...

She's probably
scrambling around,

still packing.

She's not like you.

Ellie was packed
three weeks ago.

Have you tried
Jason's phone?

Twice.
He's not answering either.

Well, is there anyone else
you want to contact?

Another person
in the bridal party, perhaps,

and see if he's heard
from Jason?

Are you seriously asking me
what I think you're asking me?

He's asking you
to call Greg.

Yes, no, thank you,
i got that, and no.

I don't need
to call anyone else.

Maybe it's time

you let this anger
toward Greg go, Ellie.

I have.

I'm totally over it.

We just...
We had a plan.

He made a choice.
That choice wasn't me.

So if he expects us
to be all Kumbaya,

let's be friends again...

Sounds like
she's over it.

Look, I'm going
to keep the peace for Mandy

because I want this wedding

to have as little drama
as possible.

No glitches.

Oh!

Change of plans.

We're going straight
to the airport.

No stops.

Mandy had an issue with work.

They're taking
the noon flight.

I guess that explains

why we haven't heard
from her?

Okay, so one glitch.

[Mexican music playing]

[Ellie]: Whew!

Okay.

-We're here!
-Where is the shuttle?

Oh, perfect,
that's it.

Um, okay,
do we have everybody?

Everybody but
your sister.

Stop with that?

I got a car
service for her!

Okay, so,
the shuttle is here.

If you guys
want to start loading up,

we'll head to the resort.

I know you want it
to be special for her.

She's going to be here
in a few hours, okay?

Okay.

I can't believe
your sister isn't here

to take it all in with us.

Yeah, but there's so much more
to take in at the hotel.

You guys are going
to love it.

I know.

My best friend
getting married

in my hometown.

It's like a dream.

Okay.
I'll see you guys over there.

Whew!

Thankfully, I practically
planned this whole thing,

so hopefully,
i can hold down the fort

until Mandy gets here.

You'd tell me
if something was wrong, right?

Of course.

I just want to see
both my granddaughters

walk down the aisle.

I'm not getting any
younger, you know?

And yet, you somehow look better
than I do.

How's that?

You're deflecting.

Whenever I bring up
marriage, you deflect.

I do not deflect.

I left my bag!

I'll be right back.
Go to the shuttle.

Deflecting!

I'm not deflecting!

Gracias.

Oh!

Ellie.

Hey...
Greg.

Hi.

I'm glad that your flight
wasn't delayed.

Yeah.

I mean, we knew we'd see
each other here, right?

You're the maid of honor.
I'm the best man.

We introduced them
to each other.

It's just...

Long time.

Yeah, it's been...
Like about two years.

So...

How have you been?

Uh, good!
Great!

Life, family, work...

Lot better
than I ever could've imagined.

Good! Yeah, yeah, me too.

Really, really great,

and hey, I'm not surprised.

I mean...

I'm glad you found what
you were looking for in L.A.

Well,
my life was always in L.A.,

and, incidentally,
so was yours,

until one day, it just...
Kind of wasn't anymore.

Yeah, well,

when you're recruited

by the one of the most
prestigious criminal law firms

in Atlanta,

you go.

Oh, when the most prominent
interior designer

wants to mentor you,

you stay put.

Never turn down
a career-making opportunity,

right?

Right, yeah, I think
that's good advice.

Um, they're actually waiting
for us in the shuttle,

so should we walk?

Yeah, sure.

Okay, um...

So did it?

Did what?

Did it make
your career?

You...
You haven't heard?

I thought maybe your sister
would've told you

since I stayed on Jason's couch

when I was in town
looking for a place.

You're back?

Yeah...

Or at least,
i will be in a couple weeks.

Another incredible opportunity.

Oh, they just, uh,

they keep falling out
of the sky for you, huh?

I need to borrow
your lucky penny?

Come on,
you don't need it.

I saw your firm featured
in architectural digest.

They called you
a rising star.

Kay actually let me
run point

on the montford
hotel remodel,

so it's kind of
been a whirlwind.

So, I guess
things worked out

the way
they were supposed to

for both of us.

And now Jason and Mandy
are walking down the aisle,

so...

See, one good thing
came out of our...

Out of us.

You know, let's...
Let's not do this.

We don't have
to rehash the past.

Your life is good.
My life is great.

I couldn't agree more.

Okay, so,

we'll just get through
this week.

We can coexist,

and then never
see each other again.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Perfect. Fine.

Good. After you.

Uh...
Yeah, okay.

Dad, can I sit next to gram?

Yeah, of course, honey.

Greg demount!

[Greg]:
Grandma Goldie!

You look well.

Me? Look at you!

You look 30, tops.

What's your secret?

Gingko biloba.

Bless you.

It's a supplement.

Still sharp as a tack.

Nothing gets past me.

Never did, never will.

Hello, Greg.

Tom, it's good
to see you.

Sorry about
your Dodgers.

Not as sorry as I am
about your Phillies.

What? What are
you talking about?

All we've got to do is win
the next... 50 or so games

and we clinch
a playoff spot.

Of course!

I apologize
for underestimating them.

[Goldie]:
You know, Greg,

of all the boys
this one has dated,

you were always
my favorite.

I'm right here.
I can hear you!

Be nice.
Alec adores you.

[Goldie]:
Alec's her boyfriend.

He's great.

He's actually
on his way

to being one of the most
in-demand contractors

in L.A. someday.

Wow,

that's quite the press release
you've written.

You're a lucky lady.

I am.

Well, he's the lucky one,
if you ask me.

[Man]: Hola, acapulco!

[Guests]:
Hola, acapulco!

[Cheering, whooping]

[Mexican music playing]

It doesn't feel right,

being here without
your sister.

It's her wedding,

and it's a lot for grandma,
making this trip.

I don't want her
to worry.

Dad, you know how much
we had to get done

leaving for a one-week vacation.

With the honeymoon,
they'll be here for two.

I guess that's true.

Okay, I'm going
to go upstairs.

I will unpack,

and I will go enjoy
my time by the pool.

I'll meet you
at the pool.

-Okay. Thank you.
-Good.

[Elevator bell dings]

[Greg]: Jason, just tell me
what is going on.

Jason?

How are you on the phone
with Jason right now

when he's supposed to be
35,000 feet in the air?

Greg?

Jason, will you put
my sister on, please?

Hi.

[Ellie]: Mandy!

Why are you guys not flying
right now?

Okay,

maybe I wasn't completely
honest with you this morning.

About what?

Uh, well,
there was a little issue,

and we missed our plane...

Both of them.

What's the issue?
Are you okay?

We're fine.

We had a fight.

I said some things.

Jason's mad.

It's just, there's so much
going on right now.

Ellie, I...

[Ellie]: Mandy ,

you can't let the stress
of the wedding get to you.

Just forget about
the details.

This is about
your marriage.

I'm here to help.

[Mandy]:
I know.

We're going to talk,

and we're booking
the first flight out

tomorrow morning.

[Door slamming]

What was that?

Uh, nothing.

It's fine.
We're fine.

Just tell everyone

there was a problem
with Jason's passport,

and we'll see them tomorrow.

You two can cover for us
until then?

Please?

We're on it.

Fly safely.

We'll be fine.

Jason!

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

[Mexican music playing]

Incoming!

[Splash]

Aj, you're splashing
grandma Goldie!

Sorry!

I'm fine, Jules.

A little water
never hurt anybody.

Hi. Are you Ellie?

I am.

Thank goodness!

I've been looking
for you everywhere.

I am Javier,
the activities coordinator,

and now, it seems

like I am also
your wedding planner.

Wait, what happened to Tara?

We've been talking to her
for months.

Exactly.

What did happen to Tara?

That's
the million-dollar question.

Apparently, she ran off
with a guest last night,

and she left everything
a mess,

and guess
who's got to pick up the pieces?

Javier.

That is awful.

I am so sorry.

No...

"Awful" would be a blessing.

I cannot find
a record of anything...

Oh, except for...

This post-it note...

And I already called
your sister...

And apparently,
she has not checked in yet,

and apparently,
we have to...

Place the food order today.

Yes. Okay, um...

I'll go to the food tasting,

and we'll get her on the phone.

Great!

[Ellie]: Mandy,
if you don't call me back

within the next 30 minutes,

I'm picking the food myself,

and I don't want
to hear any complaints.

Oh, don't worry, Javier.
I know what she likes.

I'm on it.

Good, then
i won't worry.

You two of you will have
to make all the decisions.

Two of who?

[Javier]:
Oh, good! You're here.

You know the best man, right?
Uh, Greg, is it?

Yeah, we know
each other.

Obviously,
Jason isn't here,

so Javier got ahold of me.

Greg, go enjoy
your vacation.

I can handle this.

Jason needs
a voice here, too,

and as his best man,
that voice is me.

Fine...

But I'm running point.

You wouldn't have
it any other way.

[Ellie]: So...

So...

This is nice of you
to do for your sister.

She would do
the same for me.

Okay.

So these are the
three dishes we offer.

Here, we have...

[Rattles off a complicated
Spanish name]

[Rattles off
another complex name]

[Speaks Spanish]

Chicken, fish, vegetarian.

Okay, you don't have
to eat like a cave man.

I'm supposed
to try this, too.

Come on, do
people really care

about what they eat
at a wedding?

[Ellie]:
Of course they do!

[Greg]: Good music,
drinks flowing,

fun crowd.

That's what people remember.

If people make
an effort to attend,

you have to make it
worth their while

with good food.

I couldn't disagree more.

What's the best wedding
you've ever been to?

Rick and jilanne's,
at the museum.

What'd you eat?

Surf and turf?
No...

You don't remember.

I rest my case.

Okay, but I do remember
the chicken that we ate

at Tim and Britney's wedding.

Yeah, of course, you do.
We all got food poisoning,

and we all
got stuck in the E.R.,

hooked up
to I.V.S all night.

I can assure you,

we've never had that problem
here before.

I think. I hope.

I can check.

It's okay, Javier.
We're not worried.

I think we should go
with the vegetarian

and the fish.

Mandy likes chicken.

Jason likes fish.

Might I suggest the chicken
and the fish,

since they both come
with vegetables?

That way, we can
all be happy.

Yes, that's fine.

Okay.

Excelente.

So we can move on
to the cakes?

Yes.

Yes!

Buenos dias.

Hola!

[Phone rings]

Alec! Hey!

Did you get it?

[Alec]: They said
I wasn't the lowest bid,

but I was definitely
the most thorough.

See, if I had come to Mexico,

I wouldn't have gotten
the renovation.

I'm proud of you.

I do wish you were here.

All of Mandy's friends

were hoping to get to know you
a little better.

It's kind of a big deal
for our family.

I know,
and I'm sorry,

but this is all
for us, El,

for our future.

Just because I'm not big
into the whole marriage frenzy

doesn't mean I don't have plans,

and I gave these
new clients your card

for when they're ready
with the interior.

I haven't even thought
about work.

I'm a little bit worried
about my sister, though.

Stop putting
everyone else first

and enjoy your vacation.

It's not everyone else.
It's my sister.

I know.
She's important.

So, have you seen him yet?

Yes,
and it was disturbingly awkward,

so we're trying
to avoid each other,

which is exactly
how I prefer it.

Hey, I'm running late
for breakfast.

I'll call you later.

Okay. Bye.

Whoa!

Did you guys close the
place down last night?

The dance club was hopping.

All right.

Well, that's just the beginning.

Did you see the activities
we had planned for you guys?

Yeah, we got the list
in the welcome packet.

Ellie, you went all out.

No, not me.
That's the bride and groom,

and tonight's
the poolside fiesta.

I think they're teaching us
samba or something,

so save your energy.

I've got plenty in reserve.

We haven't samba'd

since our honeymoon
six years ago.

That was not pretty.

That's why
we're having a lesson.

We got this!

When do Mandy and Jason get in?
I want to see the dress!

As far as I know,
they're coming in today.

Can I talk to you a minute?

A small issue with the food
we picked yesterday.

Nothing more important

than the food you serve
at a wedding, right?

Jason left her.

What do you mean,
Jason left her?

I don't know.
That's what he said.

My sister just hasn't been
herself lately.

She's stressed.
She's been lashing out at him.

I'm just hoping
this'll pass.

They're having a moment
due to heightened circumstances.

This is Mandy and Jason
we're talking about.

They're perfect for each other.

Well, evidently,
not anymore.

What am I supposed
to tell my dad

and my grandma?

They're so excited
for this wedding.

Look, no one knows those two
better than you and me, right?

So maybe we can talk
some sense into them.

Together?

Yeah.

I mean,
it's worth a shot.

Form a united front,

convince them it'll all be fine
once they get down here.

Okay.

Yeah, we can do
that for them.

So much for keeping
our distance, right?

[Phone rings]

[skype sounds]

[Mandy, on voice chat]:
What are you guys doing?

We're here for you.

I can't believe
I'm seeing you together.

It's good.

You two
need to talk.

No, this isn't about us.

We're...
We're here for you guys,

so just tell us
what's happening.

[Sighs]

Well, Jason doesn't want
to marry me anymore.

That's not what I said.

She was being nasty,

so I said, if you continue
speaking to me like that,

I'm walking away.

Okay, Mandy,
we talked about this.

You can't let
the stress take over.

[Mandy]:
Well, then,

Jason left without
so much as a word

when we were supposed to be
on our way to the airport.

Okay. So, it sounds like
you guys are having

a little communication issue.

Yes, she needs
to communicate better.

All right, well,
that's not good,

but Jason, you can't just
walk out when you're angry.

It's really important

that you stay
and you talk things through,

especially when you guys
are making a decision

that affects the both of you,
and your future.

You're in this together.

She's right, Jay,

but remember,
communication works two ways.

It's important to listen
as much as speak,

so just be sure to tell Mandy

the reason why you left
without discussing things,

so she understands
that sometimes,

it's as much for her
as it is for you.

So when you walk out
on someone,

you're doing them a favor?

Is that what
you're saying, Greg?

That's the best advice
that you could give them?

[Greg]: Things aren't always
as they appear, Ellie.

[Ellie]: They're exactly
as they appear.

You...

He left.

Okay.

Let's just get it
all out on the table

what this is
really about.

No, this has nothing to do
with the fact

that you accepted a job
in another state

without even
discussing it with me,

and then you left.

Maybe I didn't want you

to have to make a choice

between your career
and our relationship.

So you broke my heart
as a favor to me?

You have to look at both sides
of the coin, Ellie.

Everyone was going
to have to sacrifice.

I just didn't want to place it
all on your shoulders.

Oh, that's beautiful, Greg.

They really should write
love songs about you.

And yet,
you got angry at me

without letting
me explain,

so maybe try practicing
what you preach.

Whatever.

Okay, the point is...

Guys?

Hey...

You guys there?

[Ellie]: Hello?

Great, well,
that went well.

Yeah, you, too.
I admire your technique.

Your sister's missing
all her own wedding festivities.

She was so excited
about this party.

I know, but what can they do?

Is there something
else going on, Ellie?

No, gram.

You know
how international travel is.

No passport, no trip.

Well, I just hope it comes
in time for the reception.

They paid for a rush.

[Drumming]

[Guests cheering]

[Mariachi music playing]

[Music finishes with a flourish]

Whoo!

Buenas noches, everybody!

Some of you
already might know me.

I am Javier.

Last night,
i was the dj at the disco,

and today, I'm going
to teach you how to bailar ...

To dance.

El jarabe tapatio
is the Mexican hat dance,

which is the official dance
of Mexico,

and I will need
two volunteers for this.

Don't be shy.

Dancing is about feeling,
not about how you look.

How about you, sir?

In the pink shirt?
Greg?

Yes, come on up.

And... you!

Come on and join us.

Yes, up on the stage.

A round of applause
for our volunteers.

[Applause]

Okay, perfect...
Uh, no.

Switch places.

Now... Si .

Now, come together as one.

You do not
need to speak,

because dance is
a language internacional .

El jarabe tapatio

is the dance of a man's
courtship of a woman.

It is romance.

Si?

First, the man invites
his partner in for courtship,

but she rebuffs his advances!

Por favor.

[Mariachi music playing]

So, he courts.

She rebuffs.

Court. Rebuff.

Gracias.
Now you try.

Don't step
on my feet.

I did that once.

Rebuff. I am rebuffing.

I am courting.

All the way rebuffing.

I am courting.
I am still courting.

More courting!

Come on!

Very nice.

All right,
no more courting.

[Applause]

As we dance,

you get closer together

as you follow these steps,

and he becomes irresistible,
this man. Si?

She cannot fight
any longer...

And love wins.

Por favor.

[Applause]

Okay, your turn.
El sombrero y El sarape.

All right.

Thank you, Javier.
Thank you.

Now you try.

I am definitely ready.

[Javier]: Very good.
Are you ready?

Oh, gosh...

I don't think
you are.

Um... all right!

Ha!

Oh!

[♪♪♪]

Oh, don't kick me
in the head.

Aah!

Hey!

[Applause]

El amor siempre gana.

Translation...
Love always wins.

[♪♪♪]

I can never get aj
to leave anywhere.

He just talks
and talks.

Alec says the same thing
about me.

Yeah.
Thank you.

I know!
I wish he was here.

I was looking forward
to spending more time with him.

Spending more time with who?

Ellie's boyfriend,
the elusive Alec.

We've only met him one time
in the year they've been dating.

[Ellie]: Yeah, but
he's really busy.

It's hard for him
to get away.

Even for your sister's wedding?

Not if he's going
to become

the hottest contractor
in Los Angeles.

Wait, how do
you know that?

If you ask Ellie about him,
she'll give you his resume.

Well, I'm really
proud of him,

and I like to acknowledge
his accomplishments.

He does the same
with me.

No, that's,
that's good.

That's...
No crime in that.

I just...

I don't know.
I wonder about him.

What do you
wonder, Greg?

Alrighty!

We'll see you guys
at golf tomorrow.

Good night.

I'm not trying
to be rude, Ellie.

Everyone knows your family
is everything to you,

especially your sister,

and he's not here.

We're not doing this.

I mean, if I had missed
something this crucial

when we were together...

Why do you care?

Contrary
to what you may think,

I want you to be happy.

Well, I am happy.

Okay, great.
I'm glad.

I'm just surprised

you're so okay with him
not being here.

Well, neither are
the bride and groom,

and they're not answering
any of my calls,

so, really, I have
a bigger absence to deal with.

Well, they're not answering
my calls either.

This is not normal.

Normal?

You want to talk normal?

My sister's not here.

My boyfriend's not here.

I'm lying to my family,

and the only person
i can talk to

about any of this

is you.

None of this is normal.

[Javier]:
Hello, everybody!

It's me again,
Javier,

directing
the activities.

So, the hosts,
who are yet to arrive,

sent me the list
for your foursomes today.

So I have put names

on each one
of these golf carts,

and golf clubs behind them.

So have fun,

and may you all golf
like the golfer Jack nicklaus.

-Javier?
- Si?

You spoke to them?
The bride and groom?

Ah, well, yes,
i got the e-mail.

And?

What did they say?
Are they on their way?

This information,
i do not have.

I'm merely the messenger.
Stop. Don't shoot.

Enjoy!

Thank you, Javier.

Sure!

Well, I guess
that's something,

that they want us
to keep on schedule.

I just wish they'd talk to us.

They made us a pair?

You're riding with aj
I'm riding with Jules.

Jules,
you're riding with me.

Okay.

What's up?

Nothing.

Seriously, Ellie,
i don't understand

why your sister
isn't answering

any of my texts?

Or my phone calls?

Because it's hard...

Everyone off having
their party without them.

Think about how you'd feel,
being stranded at home.

I don't know.
It feels like something's up.

Jules, nothing is up.

Fine, we'll ride together
to avoid interrogation,

but we're not talking.

So I know we're technically
not talking right now, but...

But what?

You've lost your swing.

I have not lost my swing.

I happen to have had
90 hours of golf practice

since I last saw you.

Well, you might want
to get your money back, then.

I'm sorry, what did you
get on that last hole?

I can't really remember.

Uh...

Seven?

An eight.
A snowman.

I, however, got a three.

So, if you want any tips,
Mr. eight strokes per hole,

I'll figure out
an appropriate fee.

[Text chimes]

It's Mandy.

"Got your messages.

We're talking things through,
dot, dot, dot.

Please continue
to hold down fort one more day."

Okay.
Well, that's something...

Although this fort
is on shaky ground.

People aren't going
to buy this forever.

I mean,
it's just a little bit longer,

and I don't want
to upset my family,

especially if this
is the only wedding

they're getting.

What do you mean?

Well, Alec and i
aren't entirely sure

the whole marriage thing
is for us.

We don't need
a piece of paper.

Okay, who are you,

and what have you done
with Ellie?

What?
It's hard for him.

His mom
was married four times

to four terrible guys.

It would sour anyone
on the institution.

I'm not talking about anyone.
I'm talking about you.

I mean,
you used to love this stuff.

Okay, we're not having
this conversation.

Hey, listen,

I'm.... sorry

if I overstepped things
last night.

Wait, was that an apology?

I'm not really sure
i heard that correctly.

Yes, you heard that right.

I was inappropriate.

I don't know, I was...

I was having a great time
with your family,

and you know what
i was remembering?

I was remembering me
missing easter dinner

with grandma Goldie.

Do you remember how furious
everybody was?

Because you forgot
the Turkey.

We had no main dish.

I brought cheeseburgers
after I finished trial prep.

Yeah, at midnight.

They were doubles.

Everybody loved them.
I was forgiven on the spot.

Listen, whatever...

You know, whatever's happened
between you and me,

your family has always meant
a lot to me.

I know.

Work's important,

but life's all about sharing
these milestones

with each other.

I know that, too.

All right.

Ellie!

Ah...

Honey, can you
ask your sister

to call grandma?

She's growing more
concerned at every moment,

and I don't know
how to appease her.

Of course...

Unless she's on a plane
right now.

But you're not sure
that she is?

I will call her.

They're missing everything!

Yeah, she's really
bummed about that.

She really wishes
she could be here.

Well, she needs
to tell me that herself.

I am not convinced.

Oh! This could be Mandy.

Hello?

Javier! Yes.

Oh, okay. Uh...

Yeah, I will be
right there.

Bye.

I've got to go.
Flowers!

Wedding decisions

that can't wait
for Mandy to get here.

You know what?
I'll come with you.

Jason needs
to be represented, too...

Florally.

Okay, these are
the two options we offer.

One big table.

Which arrangement will it be?

Mandy would like
the ones on the right.

Jason would like
the one on the left.

Yeah,
but she loves oleanders.

He likes orange.

-Orange?
-Orange.

Listen...

I've been a wedding planner
for 72 hours,

and I don't know much
about flowers

except that when my girlfriend
gets mad at me,

flowers make her un-mad,

so what do you say
we combine them together?

No more fighting...

At all...

Ever again.

That...

That seems fine.

Greg?

Yeah, great idea,
Javier. Thanks.

Thanks, Javier.

Great.

I'm getting good at this.

I don't understand
the radio silence.

We're just trying to help them.

It's not
that surprising.

By trying to help them,
we dredged up our past.

Yeah, it's not
my intention.

Mine either.

You know, I just wanted
to come to Mexico,

have a really nice vacation,

watch my sister
walk down the aisle,

have a few dozen
margaritas.

Is that so hard
to ask for?

It would seem so, yes.

You want to go hide?

More than anything.

Okay.

I missed the beach
when I was in Atlanta.

This is my
thinking spot.

Oh?

Yesterday, I was here
for, like, an hour...

Thinking.

Okay...
About what?

Life... love...

The pursuit of happiness.

Oh, right.
So nothing too deep.

Did you happen to find...

[Phone rings]

Mandy!

Please tell me
you're at the airport.

We're not coming, Ellie.

Wait, wait.
Stop, stop.

What are you talking about?

The wedding's off.

I need you
to tell everyone.

[Greg]: I can't believe
they would call it off.

What is happening?

She's just not thinking
things through.

I'm not doing it.

I'm not going
to try and fix this,

and I'm not dropping
the bomb for them.

Okay.

Our whole lives,

I've always picked up
the pieces for her.

I'm always cleaning up
her mess.

I practically planned
her entire wedding.

I made it so easy for her
to be just so irresponsible.

Why?

Why what?

Why do you always keep

picking up the
pieces for her?

You don't think she can
handle her own life?

Because she's my sister.

I think it's
more than that...

And look, I'm not saying
you're doing this,

but this wedding...

This is like what
you always used to talk about,

getting married by the beach,

surrounded by your closest
friends and family.

Yeah, because my sister and i
had the same vision

of what
our perfect wedding would be.

I was just executing
it for her.

Okay. I get it.

My whole family has been
looking forward to this

for almost a year.

My dad was so excited
to walk her down the aisle.

I'm not going to be
destroying this for them.

I mean, I may have been
the cause of this monster,

but I don't have to enable it.

Yeah,
but people came all this way.

They spent money.
They took time off work.

That is true,

but this is
Jason and Mandy's mess.

If they're not coming,
they should tell everyone.

Well, you can't
hide forever.

When we see someone,
they're going to ask.

Well, I don't plan
on seeing anyone.

I'm running away.

You're running away?

Mm-hmm, at least
for a couple hours.

I haven't been
into town yet.

I haven't been
into town either.

Oh, wow!

This place is great!

Oh...

Whoa! Hello!

Oh, Mandy would have loved this.

Oh, yeah,
you kidding me?

You remember the night

we introduced them
to each other?

Yes!

You threw me
a birthday party,

and your power went out.

Mandy and I had to go
to the 99-cent store

and buy, like,
a hundred candles

for, like, 20 bucks.

Yeah, my place
never looked better.

Candlelight hides
all the dirt.

It really did look
like a movie.

It was beautiful.

Then, after everybody left,

we went out to the deck,
in beautiful candlelight,

and just talked
about our future.

What is it
about the flickering lights

that just makes everything
seem so much more perfect?

There's something
to be said about ambience.

Um...

Si! Si.

Oh, I see.

So you ran away
so you could shop, huh?

You know what?
I know just what you need.

Yes.

Here you go.

Thank you.

We were going to have
it all back then, huh?

Yeah.

You were going to defend
the wrongfully accused,

and I was going
to decorate their houses

once they were free.

It seems like
a lifetime ago.

Yeah.

The future seemed so simple
and perfect, and...

Then it all kind of changed.

It was really hard for me,
the breakup,

and Mandy
was just kind of there

to help me put myself
back together.

Yeah, it was hard...

You know...

I accepted the job
without talking to you

because...

I wouldn't have been able
to live with myself

if you'd chosen to come with me
over your own opportunity.

I might have.

I know,

and you probably wouldn't be
where you are today

if you had.

You put me first,
in case I didn't.

I am...

You know what?
I am starving.

Me too.

Why did we decide to run away
before dinner?

I don't know.

Want to go
back to the resort?

No, not even a little bit.

Okay.

[Ellie]: I don't know
if they'll let you.

[Greg]: Well, I'm going
to try anyways.

[Ellie]:
Oh, I may never go back.

I think I'm just going
to sit here

and eat mini tacos
for the rest of my days.

Yeah, you could do
a whole lot worse in life.

Mm, so good.

[Band begins to play]

[Mariachi music playing]

Do you hear that?

I can't hear past
the sound of my chewing.

They're playing our song.

Mm...

Guns n' roses,
"sweet child of mine"?

No, not our old song.
Our new song.

Listen.

"El jarabe tapatio."

Yes!

None other than.
Shall we?

No! I don't remember it now!

Come on!

Listen, it'll come back
to you just like this.

Like riding a bike.

Do you remember what happened
the last time I rode a bike?

Then we must find you
a much safer activity.

We must... Bailar .

-No!
-Yes!

Oh, yeah!

My courtship shall begin
in three seconds.

Oh.

Are you ready?

I'm not ready!

With the help
of these gentlemen,

in three,
two, one...

And I am courting,

and I'm courting.

And I rebuff!

Rebuffing!

But I continue
and persist to court.

No, thank you.

And I rebuff you!
No thank you, sir!

Am I doing
any better?

At all?

Maybe a little bit better.

Okay, wait, wait,
hold on a second.

The hat!

Oh, yeah!

Here comes the hat.

Oh, the hat!

Ha!

Oh! Oh, yes.

I forgot that one.

No, no, that's my move!
You can't take my move!

No, I don't remember!
What was my move?

-Your move was the girlie one.
-Oh, yes!

Okay, yes.

[Laughs]

I have got to be getting
more irresistible.

You cannot resist me, no?

It is almost futile.

Oh!

Ooh!

El amor siempre gana.

Love always wins.

We are not getting
any better at this,

are we?

No, actually,
i think we are regressing.

Gracias.

Okay, so,

maybe dancing with the
stars isn't in our future.

[Laughs]

Well, there is
one small problem.

What's that?

Other than the fact
that I can't dance?

You're not a star.

[Laughing]

Right. I always
forget that part.

[Phone chimes]

I'll handle it.

Grab it.
I'll pay the bill.

Thank you.

Alec?

Finally, Ellie.

I've been trying to reach you
all night.

Sorry, there was just a band.

It was really loud,
so I couldn't hear my phone.

Okay, so tell me

why I ran into your sister
at the grocery store today,

and she told me
the wedding had been canceled?

Well, we heard
they were having an issue,

so we were just trying
to patch things up from afar.

Who's we?

You and your dad?

Well...
You know, everyone.

Interesting,

because when
i couldn't get ahold of you,

I called your dad,

and he seems to think
that they're not there

because Jason lost his passport.

So I'm going to ask again.

Who is "we"?

He's the best man, Alec,
and... we just...

We wanted to keep things quiet.

We didn't want
to upset everyone,

and then my grandmother...

It's completely innocent.

Then why try
to hide it from me?

You're right.

You're right.
It's stupid.

I just didn't want you
to get the wrong idea.

It's too late for that.

Well, we were planning

on telling everyone the truth
in the morning,

so I imagine we'll all head home
soon after that.

And then you're never going
to see him again?

Is that what you're saying?

Yes, yes,
that is what I'm saying.

All right,
call me tomorrow.

Alec?

Alec?

Everything okay?

Yeah, it's... fine.

[Phone rings]

Oh.

Hey, dad?

Whoa!
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Calm down.

Okay.
Okay, I'll be right there.

It's grandma Goldie.

Gram?

Ellie belle?

Are you okay?

Thomas, be a dear,

and go get me some tea...

Sure.

And... a juice.

All right.

And two carne asada tacos
with extra pico de gallo.

I should've insisted
they get married in L.A.,

then none of this
would be happening.

I'll be okay.

[Door opens, then shuts]

All right.

Now, tell me, you two,

what is going on
with your sister?

Grandma, you're faking?

Well, maybe my blood sugar
dropped a little,

but that's what happens

when you have two
rum-a-lum-a-ding-dong cocktails

before breakfast,

but I'm fine.

Why pretend, then?

I needed
to have your defenses down

so you'd tell me the truth.

Why are they not here?

You're nothing
if not effective, Goldie.

I've missed you.

Oh, the feeling
is quite mutual, Gregory.

Well?

You know Mandy doesn't deal
with stress very well,

and I could only take so much
of the pressure off of her.

Your sister does not have
the sense of obligation you do.

She's always been
taken care of.

I'm sure
it never even crossed her mind

to feel badly

that all these people came here
for her.

Uh...
No, she has not mentioned that.

[Chuckles]

But you...

You always make things better
for everyone else.

That's what
i keep telling her.

Let your sister
handle her own life,

and you focus on yours.

Just make sure

you don't let
any past disappointments

dictate future decisions.

The past is not prologue.

Sometimes,
it's just a matter of timing.

Gram...

May we help you out of bed?

No.

My tacos are coming.

I wish you'd told me
about Mandy and Jason earlier.

Maybe I could've helped.

We just didn't want
to trouble anyone with it.

You've shouldered the weight
of this family long enough.

I shouldn't have let you
take it on,

and I'm sorry.

It's what you do
for the people you love, right?

I'm going to talk to them,
see if I can fix this.

Hopefully, they listen to you.

They're meant for each other.

And everybody knows it
except them.

It's weird
how two people cannot see

what is so obvious
to everyone else.

[Phone chimes]

[Phone chimes]

Good morning.

Hey, I hope
i didn't wake you.

Hey, guys, can you
move this real quick?

I was just calling to see

what time you think
you'll be in today.

I can pick you up
at the airport,

take a few days off.

We can go up the coast.

[Ellie]: That's okay, Alec.

Actually, my dad
is on the case now,

so we're not going
to call it a day just yet.

He thinks
he can patch the rift.

Ugh, weddings.
They complicate everything.

Well, I mean,

it's not the wedding
that's the problem.

So you're saying
it's your sister?

No! I didn't...

That's not what I said.

It's just... circumstance.

Yeah, that she created.

I'm not trying to bash her,
but this is what she does.

Okay, well, she is my sister,

so I suggest you be
really careful

about what you say next.

All this back and forth.
I mean...

It's crazy-making, El.

The wedding's on.
The wedding's off.

They love each other.
They're not talking.

Seriously,
if she were my sister,

I would be on the first flight
out of there.

Right, but you didn't even
come down here,

so you couldn't do that
if you wanted to.

You are upset
that I'm not there.

Yes!

And you're going to wait
and see what happens

just to punish me?

No, no...

I'm upset,
but I'm not petty, Alec.

But once again,
your sister comes first,

and I'm the runner-up.

You wanted to drive up
the coast?

So you could've taken
the weekend,

but you didn't want
to come down to Mexico

because you just don't like
my sister.

That's not what I said, Ellie.

No, no, actually,
you didn't have to,

because you've said it
a million times before.

I just didn't realize it.

Look, Mandy may not be perfect,
but she is my family, Alec,

and we're a package deal.

Ellie...

[Call disconnects]

Hey, guys.

Grandma Goldie.

Oh, my favorite boy.

So I want to thank you all
for being here,

and I promise,
their arrival is imminent.

Meanwhile, we want you all
to enjoy yourselves.

We've got
a lot of great food here,

so...

Just enjoy the day.

Nothing.

I've heard nothing.

Trying to steal
my secret spot?

You have to bring down
your "do not disturb" sign,

or else it's up for grabs.

You okay?

Just needed
some alone time.

You upset
about the wedding,

or lack thereof?

Actually, this one's on Alec.

I get that
my sister's not easy,

but you love me,
you have to love my family.

That's not negotiable.

Very first thing
i learned about you.

So...

You're not blissfully happy?

Sometimes, I think I could be.

I tried to tell myself
the same thing

when I was in Atlanta,

but I was looking
for something

to bring me back to L.A.

From almost from the minute
i got there.

I had a lot of regrets.

Hindsight, you know?

Look...

I don't know Alec at all,

and I'm not judging him...

But it seems to me

that some people
are against marriage

because it affords them

an uncomplicated, easy out
from the relationship...

Maybe that's
what you want.

You know, before i
got the job offer...

I was going to ask
you to marry me.

I know.

I was going to say yes.

[Javier]:
All right, everybody...

-Anything?
-No.

Hey, gram.

Here. Pick this card.

Maybe it'll bring me
some luck.

Grand prize is scuba lessons.

Oh, my goodness.

What are you going to
do with scuba lessons?

Sell them!

See that kid over there?

Keeps winning.

He is my Nemesis.
I will beat him.

B-9.

As in, the doctor called
and said the problem was benign.

Whew, what a relief.

[Sighs]

So, how was the rest
of the barbecue?

I left because
it was too breezy for me.

I think everybody
enjoyed it.

And you?

Any word on your sister?

Gram, I already
told you.

Dad is on it.

I'll believe dad is on it

when I see
Mandy and Jason show up.

[Javier]:
I should-a had a b-8.

B-8.

Whoo!

Have that one.

You know, I was thinking
about this yesterday.

I never saw two people
more right for each other.

I know,
those two fit like a glove.

If only they would just
communicate better.

Well, actually, I was
talking about you and Greg.

[Javier]: Clickety-click!
O-66!

O-66!

Greg and I actually
are not anything

because I'm with Alec now.

I know.
That's the problem.

Gram...

[Javier]:
Oh, are these two ducks?

I-22.
Quack quack.

I-22.

You used to be
such a romantic.

You loved "happily ever after,"

and weddings weren't ever
a "maybe, someday" for you.

It's hard making
those big plans.

Thank you.

I don't really think
i can see a forever anymore.

Well, maybe
the institution of marriage

isn't the issue.

Maybe it's marriage with Alec
that's giving you pause.

[Javier, singing]:
Will you still need me?

Will you still feed me,

when I'm o-64?

O-64.

Bingo!

Bingo!
We have a winner!

Again?

Yes!

[Goldie]:
Look at his smug little face.

Gram...
[Laughs]

[Knocking]

Ellie, it's your dad!

I'm coming!

Ah, you're here.
I've been calling.

Hey, guys, we'll see you
down at the beach.

Yes, I believe

that Jason's new passport
is arriving today.

You don't have to lay it on
so thick.

We'll find out soon enough
if they're actually coming.

I know, but
in the meantime,

we need to keep
the trains running,

and I don't want
any of our guests

to think that we dragged
them all the way here

for nothing.

No, I know what you mean.

What can I do to help?

I need you to come down
to the beach right now

for the rehearsal.

Why are we having a rehearsal?

We're not sure
we're having a wedding!

Well, I had
a long conversation

with Mandy and Jason
last night, together.

Communication lines
are up and running.

It went well.

Are they on their way?

Well, I booked them
new tickets,

so that's something,

and I really hope
they're using them.

So do I.

Yeah, so, please,

come down
to the beach.

Somebody needs to know
what to do tomorrow.

Okay, um...

I'm going
to get ready.

All right.

Okay.

[Javier]: Oh, good!

Sorry.

No, no worries.
The maid of honor's here.

So we're all here
and accounted for...

Except for the two
most important people,

but all will be well.

I've seen it all,
no worries...

Well, except for this.

Uh, you'll be the groom,

you'll be the bride,

and everybody,
take your seat.

Groom's side
and bride's side,

and stand right here.

Now, you're going to help me
just for the rehearsal,

and then you can update them
tomorrow, yes?

I sent Tara everything
a couple weeks ago,

the verses, the vows...

You have all that,
right?

Tara's office is like
a hurricane after two tornados,

but I did send
your sister an email,

and she sent me
the plan back to me,

so... good?

Um...

That's actually
really good news.

I've upgraded to the level
of cautiously optimistic.

Okay, so we may continue?

Cue music!
Come with me.

[Pachelbel's "canon in d" plays]

Thank you.
Come on, come on, come on.

You take this.

I'm your father.

We walk down the aisle.

Now, we can go
a little faster.

Just make sure
that your sister goes slowly

so everybody can take in
her beauty.

-Yes?
-Yes.

Si. Okay.

Now stand.
Then I...

No.

Switch.
Switch places.

You here, you there.
Bride... Si.

No.

Hold hands, hold hands.

So romantic...

And then we move on to...

"All things are possible
when love is present.

Neither conflict,

nor strife, nor distance,

can ever destroy true love.

El amor siempre gana.

Love always wins."

Then comes a song, a poem,
another song,

another poem,
a reading,

a third poem,

and we speak
of the traditions of marriage,

blah, blah, blah,
blah, etc.

Then vows,

and we pledge
our love to each other...

And we kiss.

There.

Si.

No, not you two!

The bride and the groom,
tomorrow...

And we pronounce
they're husband and wife...

And then we all go
to have a great time!

So this concludes
our rehearsal.

Thank you!

Thank you very much.

'Kay.

All right.

[Applause]

[Ellie]: Thank you, guys.

I got this.

Tara? Tara who?

[Ellie]: Gracias.

[Phone chimes]

That was a lovely
wedding today.

You mean rehearsal

for the actual wedding
taking place tomorrow,

we hope.

I'm not going to beat around
the bush with you, Ellie.

Why start now?

You've been ignoring
Alec's calls.

Yes.

Why?

I don't know
how I feel anymore.

Because of Greg?

No...

Because of Alec.

I just... don't really feel

like we have
the same priorities.

Oh, Ellie,

your one great love can break
through conflicting priorities.

But how do you know?

How do you know
it's your one, great love,

or if it's right?

Because I thought I knew that
with Greg,

and look at how that turned out.

Here's how I knew
with your grandfather.

The thought of life with him
seemed perfect.

The thought of life
without him was unbearable.

That's how you know.

Well, we've got to get ready
for the rehearsal dinner,

and god willing,
your sister will be there, too.

I've got your
favorite one here.

Sorry, gram.
Have to borrow dad for a sec.

Okay.

What's up?

They're asking how
long we want to wait.

According to the website,

the plane landed
three hours ago.

They've done this twice
already.

You tried your hardest,
but they're not coming.

I think
you might be right.

I texted and phoned
a dozen times,

and still no response.

We have to tell
our guests the truth.

The wedding is off.

You don't have to do this.
I'll do it.

No. No, no, no.

It's okay.

Greg and I have been the ones
hiding things from everyone.

It's time for us to come clean.

[Whispers]

I did my best.

[Clinks glass]

Hello, everybody!

If you could please
take your seats...

So, um...

We just...

My family
and Jason's family

really want us
to thank you all

for being here,

and being such good sports
about everything,

um, you know,

without the guests of honor
actually.... being here.

[Greg]:
Mandy and Jason...

Really appreciate you
all making the trip

to come down,
to celebrate them...

Um...

And...

You know what?
If they were here right now,

I feel like

what they would
want to say is...

[Javier]:
They would say...

Surprise!

Hi!

[Javier]:
I found your bride and groom.

Daddy!

Mandy.

[Mandy]:
Hello!

Can you believe
tomorrow's my wedding day?

Yes, Mandy, I can...

Because Greg and I have spent
the better half of this week

entertaining your guests,
planning your wedding,

juggling a hundred balls
for you.

I'm really sorry I put
you through all of this.

I know I don't say it enough,

but I appreciate
everything you do for me.

When Jason and I were talking
to dad the other night,

I realized some things.

Such as?

Well...

I don't always know
how to compromise.

I deal with stress terribly...

I can be irresponsible.

That's it?

What?
That's not enough for you?

No, that's plenty.

There's plenty of time
for self-reflection later.

[Laughs]

I mean, I'm not
completely blameless here.

I think I was using
focusing on your life

as a distraction

from what's really happening
in mine.

Why? What was really happening
in yours?

Alec.

Yeah...
About Alec...

You dislike him.
I know.

"Dislike" is a strong word.

I can't stand him!

And he doesn't like me either.

Probably because I told him
he wasn't good enough for you,

twice.

Mandy!

I know, I know.

I'm trying to learn
to think before I speak.

I promise.

One of the lessons from
all of this wedding drama.

This feels like heaven.

So, you and Greg seem to be
getting along pretty well.

It was pretty
intense at first.

Gracias.

Thank you.

But we went through
the trenches this week,

so I would say
we got past things.

Yay! I was so hoping
that this would happen.

It was the golf
pairing, right?

Wait, you were hoping
what would happen?

You and Greg reuniting
at the wedding,

with him being back
in L.A. now and all?

We could go on
double dates again,

and we can move into
the same cul-de-sac

-next to each other...
-Mandy...

Like in that
old soap opera,

and our kids
could grow up together,

and they'd be bffs.

Take it easy.

We are just
on speaking terms.

That's it.

Well, it is a big step
in the right direction.

[Phone chimes]

"Sitting on the beach
by myself.

It's too quiet without you."

Go.

He's all alone
down there.

You don't have to take care
of me anymore, Ellie.

Go take care of you.

[Ellie]: Look what I found.

What?

Where did you find that?

Okay,

I actually just got it
from a bar over there,

but I did put it on
Jason and Mandy,

because I figured

it's the least that
they could do for us.

Would you do
the honors?

Yes, yes, of course.
Great idea.

Mandy and Jason
do owe us.

[Pops cork]

-Ooh!
-All right.

Here we go...

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Uh, do you have
a preference?

Uh, no,
but I'll take this one.

Okay! Cheers!

Oh, this is cozy!
I like it.

I know, right?

Do you like the fire?

-I do!
-You do?

-Yeah.
-Because I made that fire.

[Ellie]: Oh, really?

And it took me
five-and-a-half hours,

so I hope you really,
really like it.

How's Mandy?

You know...

She's surprisingly
really calm.

It's kind of eerie.

Should we take her
to the E.R.?

Maybe.

What about Jason?

Yeah, he's...

He's all kind of
easy-going and relaxed.

It's weird.

[Phone chimes]

Sorry, I just can't be bothered
right now.

Then don't.

Let's go in the water.

What?

Come on!

No!

No, it's dark,

and there are creepy-crawlies
underneath the surface!

No, absolutely not.

What are you talking about?
We'll put our feet in.

It's, like, an inch of water.

Do you know what?

I will take
an inch of champagne,

but not..
I'm not getting in.

Do you want some?

Yeah, I want
some more champagne.

There you go.

Thank you.

No!

We have to...
A toast.

Right, right.

To surviving
all of this.

Yeah, we made it.

We did!

'Kay, Ellie, I...

I have to say this now,

otherwise the moment's
going to pass,

and I refuse to have
any more regrets in my life.

I am not sorry
they pulled this stunt...

Because it brought us here,

and there is nowhere else
I'd rather be right now,

and there's no one else
I'd rather be here with.

Greg...

And if I had known then
what I know now,

I would've turned it all down,

and I would've put a ring
on your finger that day.

I still love you, Ellie.

I never stopped.

Ellie?

Alec?

What are you
doing here?

I could ask the same of you.

You know what?

I'm just going
to let you guys talk.

I'm sorry.

No.

I'm just going to pretend
like I didn't see that,

because I... I get it.

Uh... you get what?

All this wedding business,
it's made you realize

how much you do actually
want to get married.

I do, but...

You knew
that I didn't want to,

and you were willing
to put that aside,

because that's how much
you love me.

Alec...

No, no, no...
You win, Ellie, you win.

If you want a piece of paper,
then that is fine.

We'll get a piece of paper...

Because that is how much
i love you.

Oh...

Oh, it is...

It is so much more

than a piece of paper, Alec.

It's a commitment that
says, "i choose you...

For life."

I know.

You shouldn't have come.

Wait, okay,

first, you're mad at me
for not coming,

and now you're upset
because I'm here?

I wanted to love you,

and I am so sorry
to tell you this.

I just... don't anymore.

Wow, that's not
what I was expecting

when I got on a plane
with a ring in my pocket

this afternoon.

I don't want to hurt you

'cause I really do care
about you so much.

Just not as much as him.

You're a good man,

and you deserve
more than this.

Did you ever love me?

I never pretended.

I just thought
i could move on...

But I can't.

If that's what you want,
Ellie...

[Knocks]

[Door opens]

[Jason]:
Ellie?

What's wrong?

Is everything okay with Mandy?

Oh, yeah, yeah.
No, everything's fine.

I'm actually looking
for Greg.

I thought
he was with you.

He was.

It's a long story.

You scared me there
for a second.

I thought, you know,
maybe Mandy was just, uh...

No! No.

Oh, she's so excited
for tomorrow...

And how are you feeling
about, you know, things?

I am good.

I think that we figured
everything out, yeah.

You think,
or you know?

I think I know.

I... I don't know.

I'm just, like,
really nervous.

Is that bad?

No, feeling nervous
is completely normal.

It just...

It means that it's really
important to you.

Okay.

At my parents' wedding,

my dad said
he was so nervous

that my mom had to get
out of her wedding dress

to go calm him down,

and then she had to go
get re-dressed

in this old, beautiful
victorian wedding gown

that had, like, a hundred
tiny buttons down the back,

so basically,

they were 30 minutes late
to their own wedding

because of tiny buttons.

That's true love
right there.

Sounds like it.

Oh, by the way,

if you need Mandy tomorrow,
her dress has a zipper.

Perfect.
Uh, Ellie, thank you...

For everything.

That's what family does.

[Phone rings]

Hey, you've reached Greg.

I'm not available
to take your call right now.

[Beep]

[Ellie]:
Wake up, sleepyhead.

It's your big day today!

This is how I look
on my wedding day?

Well, luckily,

you have a professional
coming in an hour.

Do you want to shower first,
or should I?

Go ahead.

'Kay.

Any word from him?

Nothing.

I looked for him everywhere
last night.

He's not around the resort.

He's not at his favorite spot
on the beach.

He's not answering
his calls or texts.

Well, he can't hide forever,

and you'll see him
soon enough...

Because I'm getting married
today!

[Squeals happily]

30 minutes until we're
putting you in your dress.

-Okay.
-[Knocking]

I'll get it.

Hi.

Shh, shh.

Come on.
Shh, shh.

Look, I know you're nervous,

but it's like I said
last night...

It is completely normal,
and I promise you,

today is going to be
the best day of your life.

Ellie, it's not
about me and Mandy, okay?

It's Greg.

He didn't come back to the room
last night.

I tried him last night
and this morning,

and no answer.

I have tried
a dozen times, too. Nothing.

I don't know what to do.

He's my best man.

I'm getting married in an hour,
and I'm freaking out here.

I'm going
to freak out, okay?

So just... I need you
to tell me what to do.

Ellie, please,
just tell me.

First, you are going
to get dressed.

I will call my dad,

I will have him
stay with Mandy,

and I will go
find Greg.

Everything
will be fine.

Okay.

Okay. Thank you.

For everything.
Really.

Get out of here

before you accidentally
see the bride!

Okay.

No, no, no, no, no!
Other way.

Right. Sorry.

Whoa, isn't it bad luck

to see the bridesmaid
before the wedding?

I've never heard
that before.

Have you seen Greg?

No, not since
last night.

Greg wanted to get
on a plane all of a sudden.

We talked him out of it.

He was pretty bummed about
your boyfriend showing up.

Or should we say,
fiance?

Come on, show us
that ring!

No, Alec and I broke up.

Wait, Greg said he saw
you getting engaged.

I didn't. We didn't.

I'm not engaged.

Where was the last place
you saw Greg?

Uh, down by the beach,
near those rocks.

Okay.

[Jules]:
Or maybe... he left?

[Aj]: Maybe I didn't
talk him out of it.

[Sobs]

Ellie!

I fell asleep on the beach.

Jason's probably
freaking out, right?

He's completely freaking out.

He sent me
to come find you.

Well, you've done your job.

You can go back
to prince charming.

Greg, stop!
Uh...

[Phone beeps]

No, don't stop.

Keep walking 'cause
you've got to get dressed,

but I will talk,

and just listen
at the same time.

What you saw...

Were two people
saying goodbye

after a year-long
relationship.

He's back in L.A.
it's over...

Because I'm in love
with someone else,

someone who is kind
and caring and loving

and loves
my kooky family.

I think I was planning
my dream wedding all along.

I just couldn't really see it

because I was with
the wrong person.

It is so much more
than a piece of paper,

and I do not need
an uncomplicated and easy out,

ever.

I won't either.

Okay.

El amor siempre gana.

Love always wins.

[Pachelbel's canon in d plays]

[Javier]:
All is possible

when love is present.

Neither conflict...

Nor strife...

Nor distance...

Can destroy true love.

Love always wins.

Love always wins.

Love always wins.

[Javier]: I now pronounce
you husband and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

El amor siempre gana.
